PAX West is a video game convention that occurred this past weekend, and the cast of Final Fantasy XVI and localization director Christopher-Michael Koji Fox spoke at length about the game, its characters, the world of Valisthea, and more. At the start of their panel, though, FFXVI producer Naoki Yoshida announced via video that a

Diablo 4’s second season is due to kick off in just over a month, but Blizzard will find time to drop at least one more patch before the Season of Blood begins.

It begins. Starfield is out and while its official modding tools aren’t yet available, that hasn’t stopped its community from getting to work. For example: if you’re getting distracted by Bethesda’s latest throwing up XP and location-discovery messages in big fonts at the centre of the screen during combat, the BetterHUD mod should help.

Earlier this week, Dota 2‘s summer update was released and included new tools for filtering toxic and unwanted players fromy our matches. Now Valve have taken an extra step of their own by declaring that “smurfing is not welcome in Dota,” and permanently banning 90,000 accounts involved in the practice

When Ubisoft revealed Assassin’s Creed Mirage last September, it also announced that Basim Ibn Is’haq, the master assassin who brought Eivor into the Hidden Ones order in 2020’s Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, was returning. This time, however, he would the playable protagonist. His journey in Mirage takes him from street thief to Hidden Ones order initiate

This week’s news that the amazing Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew will be Mimimi Games’ last hurrah has left me absolutely devastated. As the kids might say, I am shook. Besides being a bestest best in class tactics game with great characters, a witty script and deviously designed stealth puzzles to blast and backstab through,

Newcomer studio Sonka has released the first-ever gameplay trailer for its horror game, Holstin. This new trailer reveals a fun twist on the game’s shooting mechanics, too, and comes alongside word that there’s a demo now available on Steam as well.  The trailer is short, running less than a minute, but it showcases the game’s

Gunbrella is exactly what it sounds like; you shoot enemies with a gun that’s also an umbrella. It’s the second action title from Gato Roboto developer Donksoft and we now know it’s coming on September 13.  A new trailer provides a new look at Gunbrella’s explosive, retro-inspired action. Players control a woodsman seeking revenge for

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro is down to £169 with this deal at Amazon UK – a great price for one of the best wired gaming headsets for PC and PS4/PS5, which debuted at £249 and normally costs around £200. I’ve been using one of these headsets with my PS5-based racing setup for months, and

Volition Games, the studio behind franchises such as Saints Row and Red Faction, has been shut down effectively immediately.  The news first broke on X.com, with several employees posting that they had been let go and that the studio was no more. In an official statement on the studio’s website, Volition states that Swedish holdings

Sea of Stars seemed primed for success: it’s got a gorgeous art style, is soaked through with nostalgia for the turn-based (J)RPGs of yore – but with a modern sensibility to its clever gameplay – and comes from the devs behind ingenious platformer The Messenger. Those stars have indeed aligned, as Sabotage Studio announced that

When Ubisoft revealed Assassin’s Creed Mirage last September during a special stream celebrating the series’ 15th anniversary, the game was up to bat as the next in the long-running series. Set to hit PlayStation, Xbox, and PC for $49.99 with a scaled-back approach and a much shorter runtime, Ubisoft indicated it was using Mirage to

There are a lot of Picross-style nonogram games available on PC these days, but many of them fail to inspire the easy, compulsive fugue of Picross itself. I’m hoping Logiart Grimoire will achieve such numbing delights when it launches into Steam Early Access next month. It’s got the pedigree for it, given that it’s made

Starfield is almost here. Bethesda announced the new IP way back in 2018 and after more than five years of waiting, it’s set to launch on Xbox Series X/S and PC next week, on September 6. Based on what Bethesda’s revealed about the sci-fi RPG, it looks set to be the developer Bethesda Game Studios’

I like Warframe, Digital Extremes’ shockingly enduring free-to-play action RPG, but I do find its sci-fantasy direction a bit much. The mashing together of tinted alloys and astral flame, the blend of over-the-shoulder shooting and swordplay, the environments that occasionally look like GPU boxart on steroids – it’s impressive, but a lot to digest. The

Greetings, Tenno! This message comes to you from that primeval epoch known as “Last Wednesday”, when Digital Extremes treated RPS to a preview screening of the Warframe update announcements planned for this year’s Tennocon – a special Tennocon indeed, coinciding as it does with the game’s 10th anniversary and the studio’s 30th. Alas, “Last Wednesday”
