Clowns get a bit of a bad rap. How many times have we seen a clown hunting victims through corridors in a survival horror game? Or appearing in a film, smiling away in make-up, complete with a knife and a scary laugh? So the name Vlad Circus: Descend Into Madness doesn’t come as a surprise.
As part of Diablo 4’s Campfire Chat, Unique item drops have been addressed after the general consensus suggested that they just weren’t exciting enough. As stated in the presentation video, “too often players don’t feel good when they drop, even for builds they are intended for.” So, in direct response to these comments and concerns,
The latest UK boxed-video game software charts have come through and there’s no removing Super Mario Bros. Wonder from the top of the charts this week as the game continues to sell extremely well. It is doing so well that it is fending off EA Sports FC 24 from the top spot, which is certainly

Admittedly, we never dug the original Alien Hominid. First released on consoles in 2004, it had its fanbase, sure, but the Newgrounds art style, slack animation response, and aggravating rather than enjoyable difficulty curve just turned us off. Enter Alien Hominid: Invasion, a 2023 sequel that blasted out of nowhere, ready to appeal to existing
Daredevil: The Man Without Fear, originally meant to release in 2003 but never saw the light of day, is now playable for the first time. There are plenty of games that get announced, have all the right ingredients, but still get cancelled for one reason or another. You would think that a character like Daredevil,
Sonic and Mario’s rivalry is possibly destined to never end, as one Sega executive has said he wants the blue blur to “surpass Mario.” The battle between Mario and Sonic is a tale as old as time, going back all the way to the days when Sega still made consoles. Of course, as beloved as
Two words that always strike dread into my gaming heart are that of roguelike and roguelite. So when a new game appears on the horizon promising to be one of these, I’m obviously the best placed to take on the challenge. That game is Warm Snow from those at bilibili Game/BadMud Studio and Microids. But
Hearthstone Battlegrounds, the auto-battler spin-off to Blizzard‘s card game Hearthstone is getting its own spin-off, with a new team-based mode that will allow you to group up with your friends and throw down with opponents.

Legendary video game composer Koji Kondo has sat down with NHK to discuss what it was like making the music for the original Super Mario Bros. on the Nintendo Entertainment System, specifically the Ground Theme. Kondo said that his first attempt was scrapped. This was due to the fact that when he saw the actual
After four years away, BlizzCon returned with an Azeroth-sized boom today at the Anaheim Convention Center with the start of its legendary Opening Ceremony. For fans on Xbox, we experienced the first reveal of Mauga, the newest hero for Overwatch 2, and got a tease for what’s to come with Diablo IV’s first expansion, Vessel
Overwatch 2‘s next hero is Mauga, a chaingun-loving tank that seems reminiscent of Team Fortress 2’s Heavy. He’s due to join the free-to-player shooter in Season 8 on December 5th, but you can also give him a go right now until November 5th in a limited-time trial.
Image: Nintendo Life Metal Gear..?! The Metal Gear franchise stands as one of the most iconic and influential of all time, largely thanks to its indulgent storylines and original gameplay mechanics from series creator Hideo Kojima. It’s been a long time coming, but now that Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 is out on
BlizzCon 2023 is here, folks, and we have a date with another one of the Diablo 4 Campfire Chat livestreams. On this special episode of the developer-led, but less formal than standard dev streams, Blizzard will touch on what more we can expect in Season of Blood, and even beyond that. Are we going to
Diablo 4‘s first expansion will arrive sometime late in spaceyear 2024, but it’s also a throwback to Diablo 2. That’s because Vessel Of Hatred is all about one of the Prime Evils, Mephisto, who auld players would have slain in that most-beloved of hack-and-slashers. It’s also going to add a new character class “never before
Project L will finally be playable once again 92 days after we first got our hands on it at Evo 2023. The news was sneakily revealed on the Project L website this weekend with little fanfare. However, if you want to play Riot Games’ upcoming fighting game, you’ll need to be on Seoul, Korea. This
EA Sports WRC is on Xbox, PlayStation and PC For the thrills it brings, recent year versions of the official video game of the WRC have been a bit disappointing. But now it’s under the EA Sports umbrella, the sky is the limit. Yep, it’s time to take it off-road with EA Sports WRC. Available
