A recent Fall Guys update on Steam included a bunch of files in a folder called “BackUpThisFolder_ButDontShipItWithYourGame”. The folder, which is auto-generated by Unity, includes a bunch of source files. The files were removed the following day, but their leak is potentially bad news for devleopers Mediatonic and their efforts to stop cheating in Fall

Activision has confirmed that the earlier leaks and rumors (and hints on the studio’s side) regarding Call of Duty: Warzone getting the Die Hard and Rambo treatment are true. If you like action and have an affinity for cheesy 80s action, then Call of Duty’s battle royale component is the place you’ll want to be.  A few weeks ago,

It’s here! It’s here! Put on your best space shoes, it’s time to chat up some aliens. Mass Effect Legendary Edition is out right now, remastering Commander Shepard’s trilogy of adventures, and bringing back all your extraterrestrial pals with some spruced-up graphics. It’s been a long while since I last explored BioWare’s epic sci-fi RPG

Dystopian cyberpunk action game Ghostrunner is getting a sequel. 505 Games announced Ghostrunner 2 today, giving fans of the brutal yet stylish adventure a new challenge to test their reflexes against.  Sadly, the announcement doesn’t share any details on gameplay, story, nor a release window.

Paradox Tinto’s studio manager and game director Johan Andersson has apologised for the state of Europa Universalis IV’s Leviathan DLC. The buggy release was so bad that it swiftly became Steam’s worst reviewed game, and remains ‘Overwhelmingly Negative’ on the store. Andersson posted on the game’s forums taking full responsibility. “This is entirely my fault,”

When I reminisce about the ‘90s, I think about the rise of boy bands, the Nickelodeon Super Toy Run, and being such a rebellious scamp that regularly conned people into giving me everything I wanted. Okay, only those first two memories are real, but The Big Con will at least give me an idea of what it’s like to relieve hapless folks

Blizzard will be putting a bandage over Jeff Kaplan’s departure from Overwatch by showing off a heck of a lot of Overwatch 2 next week. In the first post-Jeff Overwatch talking head, new game director Aaron Keller made a brief announcement detailing the May 20th stream, which will focus on PvP.

Many of us know how difficult it’s been to buy an Xbox Series X/S or PlayStation 5. A global computer chip shortage has put a bottleneck on console production and whatever stock becomes available is quickly scooped up by bot-using scalpers. In an effort to circumvent scalpers and get the Series X into the hands of

World of Warships has added Godzilla and King Kong. The rest of the words in this paragraph are probably meaningless because you’re now trying to imagine that. I could just talk about my cat for a few sentences, but professionalism, and Graham, forces me to keep on track. The twin titans of the best movie

Resident Evil Village has a ton of new monsters for Mr. Ethan Winters to face, but not all of them are totally original designs. At least according to Frankenstein’s Army director Richard Raaphorst.  Raaphorst took to LinkedIn and Twitter to draw similarities between his designs and those of some of the creatures in Resident Evil Village. The

As you may or may not be aware, I spent all of last week in a small house in a converted seedbarn. There were a non-zero number of rooms with black mold. There were also no activities to engage in, and I couldn’t carry my PC tower down there, so I just had my MacBook.

I’ll be honest, friends: I’m thick with cold and I’d like this day to end. Maybe you can help me make that happen. Once I’m done here, I’m going to crawl under a blanket and play something comforting that will distract me until bedtime. So I’m here to ask: what’s your comfort gaming for when

Resident Evil Village has a few puzzles that players will encounter, including one that involves stone statues. This one is tricky at first, but it’s definitely one of those that once it clicks?

“What games should I get for my PlayStation 5?” This is the question we’ve been asked the most since Sony’s new generation of gaming arrived last November. People want to see what games are the best showpieces of PlayStation 5’s power, and also which ones take their beloved medium to new heights. Although the PlayStation

It sure feels like deck-based games are having a moment right now, and if that’s something you’re into maybe spare one of your moments to look at Cross Blitz.

Every Monday, on The PC Gaming Weekspot, Colm and Matthew test each other’s game knowledge in a weekly quiz called Mystery Steam Reviews. You can probably guess the format of the quiz but if not: we read out Steam reviews and guess the game they’re about. Wikipedia defines a spiritual successor as “a product or

World’s End Club is a new survival adventure game, and it has some pedigree behind it. It comes from the minds of Kotaro Uchikoshi and Kazutaka Kodaka, both known for some of the more twisted and entertaining narrative-focused adventures with the Zero Escape and Danganronpa series, respectively. To get a taste of their new mystery that

Rogue Lords is an upcoming gothic fantasy roguelike being developed by Cyanide Studio (the creators of Blood Bowl and Styx), and it’s set to release this year. It caught my eye when it was first announced amidst the notE3 celebrations last year, mostly due to the eerie aesthetic and cool concept art shown during publisher

Nintendo has perhaps the longest, most illustrious track record in the history of the games industry, so if you’re hoping to learn the best ways to design and create your own video games, you’d be hard pressed to find a better instructor.

Egosoft have just released X3: Farnham’s Legacy, a free game in their incredibly long-running space sandbox series (the first was released way back in 2005).

Tuque Games creative art director Stefan Leblanc took to the PlayStation Blog to share some unique Dungeons & Dragons metal-inspired art. The key? Just don’t care about the way the world looks, and that’s a philosophy we can get behind. In the blog post, he shares never before seen Dark Alliance concept art and to him, it’s

Blizzard is currently hard at work on several Diablo-related projects, the biggest, of course, being Diablo IV. Because of this, it apparently wants to make sure its franchise is the only notable Diablo in all of media. Case in point: the publisher has apparently taken exception to a new animated show by Fox that features

Previously, Konami confirmed that it has “a number of key projects” in the works to share with fans, but the company has opted to join Nintendo, EA, Sony, and more in the decision to skip out on E3 2021. Following the confirmation of another company missing from the now-digital showcase (due to COVID-19), the ESA

I played a lot of Valorant in the two weeks after its release and enjoyed myself immensely. Then I got yelled at by a teammate and never played the game again. Now Riot say they’re going to start recording in-game voice comms so they can analyse it and “take action against players who use voice

Paradox Development Studio, the internal developer at Paradox Interactive responsible for many of the company’s grand strategy hits, has “split into three distinct studios.” The change happened earlier this year and was announced yesterday in a post on the Paradox forum.

Pinch and a punch for the first of the month – and no returns! This is a special first day too, May Day, which means we’ll all be off on Monday thanks to the bank holiday here in the UK. We’ll see you again on Tuesday but until then, please do tell me: what are

New Dragon Age 4 concept art has arrived just in time for the weekend, and it brings back the Grey Wardens front and center. The order has gone through the Void and back, especially during the events of Dragon Age Inquisition, and it looks like we’ll be seeing them once more – perhaps to face
