As another Helldivers 2 MO comes down to the wire, Arrowhead’s finally shown us its mysterious game master, and it seems like he can use The Force

As they do pretty regularly, the Helldivers 2 community’s managed to leave coming out on top in the latest Major Order to a big last minute push – which may or may not succeed in time. In a move that probably hasn’t helped this heroic mass charge come together, Arrowhead’s now finally decided to put […]

Not even Destiny 2: The Final Shape being a runaway blockbuster success would have prevented Bungie’s latest layoffs, report claims

It reportedly didn’t matter whether Destiny 2‘s The Final Shape expansion delivered a “blockbuster performance”, Bungie’s latest layoffs were in the works prior to its release and “couldn’t be avoided” even if the much-hyped bit of DLC, which garnered a positive reception, had been a runaway commercial success. This is according to a report from […]

GTA 5’s real life Lazlow thinks real-life believers in its parody of Scientology not only might exist, but once called him to say Kifflom

You remember the Epsilon Program? It’s basically the GTA series’ parody of Scientology and other religions with rather out there beliefs which, at least to the cynic like you or I, can often sound a bit like cults or pyramid schemes. Well, during GTA 5‘s development, ex-Rockstar developer and everyone’s favourite in-game radio host Lazlow […]

Spectre Divide is a new tactical shooter from ex-Respawn, Bungie and Riot devs with a unique multiplicity twist

After years of quietly working on the next big thing, Mountaintop Studios, a team made up of game development veterans from Respawn, Riot Games, Bungie and other AAA studios, has officially unveiled its first project to the world. Spectre Divide is the team’s attempt to shake up the competitive, tactical shooter genre. The free-to-play 3v3 […]

Edward Storage is cool, but Fallout: London has one bit of satire that arguably feels a bit out of place, and a new mod does away with it

In the time I’ve spent with it so far one of my favourite things about massive Fallout 4 mod Fallout: London are its fun little parodies and jokes about iconic UK brands and staples. However, there’s one parody company you’ll find throughout post-apocalyptic England that I’d argue doesn’t feel like it fits in as well […]

Marvel boss Kevin Feige loved Star Trek: Picard season 3, so he went after its showrunner for the Vision series

Marvel Studios has tinkered with its plans a lot in recent times. Sometimes because of indecision, sometimes out of real necessity. The biggest recent example is moving on from Kang as the Multiverse Saga’s big baddie and instead going with Doctor Doom… played by Iron Man veteran Robert Downey Jr because things are mostly bleak […]

Closer the Distance review: A bittersweet tale of a town in mourning that’s as sincere as it is refreshing

My first rendezvous with Closer the Distance was back during June’s Steam Next Fest, where I spent an hour exploring the quiet town of Yesterby and getting to know an array of distinct, authentic characters as they all deal with a heart-wrenching tragedy; one of their dear inhabitants — a friend and relative — passing […]

The Henry Cavill-led Warhammer 40,000 series might be cooked, but don’t lose hope just yet

After leaving Netflix’s The Witcher series behind, Henry Cavill set his sights on a big-screen reboot of Highlander and, more importantly, an Amazon-backed Warhammer 40,000 TV series that would mark the start of a (hopefully) long collaboration with Games Workshop. Now, however, we’re learning it all might not happen after all, but there’s still hope. […]

Helldivers 2 CEO takes on ‘humble nerd’ form to ask Super Earth’s ‘digital gold’ hoarders for pitches about fitting resources into long-term progression

Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead’s made a point of taking on plenty of player feedback in recent months, whether it be about bugs that need fixing, or improvements the community would like to see. The latest instance of this has been instigated by CEO Shams Jorjani, who’s taken to Reddit with the aim of getting some […]

Still malding about Star Wars: The Acolyte? Skeleton Crew is ready to give you all the ’80s nostalgia you want

Star Wars: The Acolyte took a good while to get truly going, but it ended up being a fresh new take on Jedi vs. Sith lore that we want to see more of. Now, Disney and Lucasfilm are starting to promote Skeleton Crew, a return to the New Republic era (The Mandalorian-adjacent) of the Star […]
