Forza Horizon 4 is getting delisted this year, but you’ve got time to complete its longest race in a crap car over 21,000 times before it goes

Right, I’ve got a lot of racing to do for reasons we’ll get into soon, so I’ll make this quick. Forza Horizon 4 is getting delisted from online storefronts on both Xbox and PC in December this year, Playground Games has announced, citing licensing and agreements with partners as the reason it’s being taken down. […]

The original Dead Rising is getting a remaster

The Dead Rising series has been dormant for what feels like an eternity. The last mainline game in the zombie-killing playground series was 2017’s Dead Rising 4. Longtime fans, however, only really consider the first two games to be worthy of the name – and it looks like Capcom might actually agree. The Japanese publisher […]

Annapurna Interactive is on a roll. Over the past few years, the publisher has proven itself as the place to look if you’re after innovative, interesting, and slightly irreverent games – curated and presented by developers all over the globe.

Helldivers 2 is back at it again with another Major Order about keeping a bunch of planets under control, with the Terminds as the foe this time.

You probably already theorised that the MCU’s Fantastic Four film was going to be set in the ’60s – and you’d be right! Early this year, to commemorate Valentine’s Day, Marvel finally announced just who it had cast in its Fantastic Four film. Right off the bat, based on the art that was released alongside […]

Street Fighter 6’s developers almost unified M. Bison’s complicated international naming, but gave up

It turns out that the developers behind Street Fighter 6 had considered unifying the character names across all regions, but eventually gave up. This means that, at least for the foreseeable future, M. Bison will be Vega, and Dictator. Oh, and Balrog is still M. Bison in Japan. Call ’em what you like. Speaking to […]

Tom Hanks looks creepy as hell in Here, a film that spans centuries where the camera doesn’t move even once

Here, an odd looking new film from the director of Forrest Gump starring Tom Hanks, has received its first trailer and it looks… static. A fairly common thing amongst most films, I’m sure you’ve probably noticed by now, is that they normally feature lots of different camera angles. Some might stay with one particular shot […]

Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition feels like far more than nostalgia bait, it could be a multiplayer classic

I’ve got to be honest. When Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition was announced, my response was sort of… a shrug. The package, as originally announced, didn’t speak to me very much at all. I’m the right age, the right target audience. I’m the sort of person who watches speedrunning marathons. But… I dunno. It just […]
