Not content with cramming RGB lighting into every possible PC product on the planet, Corsair have now started making rainbow-infused ambient lighting towers to plonk on your desk, because why the hell not? Dubbed the LT100 Smart Lighting Tower, this mildly preposterous chunk of aluminium is now available as a single ‘expansion’ tower and a

Fortnite: Save the World has technically been in early access since its release in 2017, but that is no longer the case. Epic Games made an announcement explaining that this mode has left early access, and that the development of new content will be slowing down. Save the World is essentially Fortnite’s campaign mode, and players

As outdoors continues to be called off, EGX has become the latest event to be cancelled and replaced with an online alternative. EGX Digital will team up with PAX Online, also organised by our corporate uncles, for nine days of 24-hour streams starting 12th September. Yes, nine days. Yes, all day and all night. That’s

Funko has announced a Sonic the Hedgehog two-pack of Pop figures, as well as two new flocked Pokémon figures for this year’s virtual San Diego Comic-Con. The Sonic bundle features Tails and Super Silver, while Pokémon fans can pick up flocked (or fuzzy) Mewtwo and Vulpix figures. Prior to this announcement, Sonic fans have been able

It’s a good day for graphics card deals hunters this week, especially if you’ve been eyeing up a new Nvidia RTX card, as there are plenty of graphics cards enjoying price cuts in the UK and US this week, including the Palit GeForce RTX 2060 StormX, which is down to £281 from Overclockers UK and the MSI

Screenshot Saturday Sundays! We’ve passed the midpoint of the year, readers, and while I’m sure this hellish 2020 still has plenty of garbage to throw our way, we can always count on this weekly dose of game dev screenshots to keep our spirits high each Sunday. This week: Dodging hoovers, a sickening forest, the cutest

“It’ll be easy,” I thought to myself, when it was suggested someone do a nice, timely little post on the new-ish Steam Points system, and the various new goodies on offer through it. “Sure, no problem,” I said, when Matt refused to write it because he thought Steam Points were “pointless”, and I was the

When The Outer Worlds released last year on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, it won acclaim from critics and consumers alike for its choice-driven gameplay and clever writing. However, when the RPG came to Switch, players on Nintendo’s console didn’t get to see the game at its best; the performance can be pretty rough.  To address concerns

Square Enix’s four-player co-op action/RPG, which originally launched on the Nintendo Gamecube in 2004, is coming to the PlayStation 4, Switch, iOS, and Android, and you’ll be able to play with friends online.  The original release required multiple Gameboy Advance consoles and link cables to experiment with co-op, so this is a potentially good chance to

Variety reports that detective RPG Disco Elysium is being adapted into a TV series. It’s still very early in the development process, so no writers or actors have been attached to the project. Although no talent is officially working on the show yet, Helen Hindpere, lead writer for the game from developer ZA/UM said, “We’re so

Runeterra‘s a weird one. The card game itself is solid yet unexciting (at least once you’ve played it for a dozen hours), but for me (and unusually for me) that’s made up for by charming presentation. More thoughts like that can be found in my Legends Of Runeterra review, but my less outdated thoughts are:

Remember Biomutant? We’ve been waiting for some word on the curious open-world, martial-arts mutant mayhem. Recode your DNA as you brawl, combine weaponry, and gear up with both melee and ranged options. We haven’t seen much from Biomutant in a while, but today THQ Nordic has unleashed a new trailer. Sure, new trailers hit all the

As notE3 trundles onwards, today the festivities jack into the futureworld of Cyberpunk 2077. Though the new RPG from the makers of The Witcher is one of the most hotly-anticipated games of notE3, so far we’ve seen far more of SpongeBob SquarePants than any ChromeBob PleatherPants. No more! Today at 5pm (that’s 9am Pacific), CD

During today’s War Table presentation, Crystal Dynamics released three new trailers for its upcoming Marvel’s Avengers. While we already delivered a super in-depth preview of the game today, sometimes you want to see the action for yourself. The trailers focus on three different parts of the upcoming game: story, single-player gameplay, and cooperative action. Check

I am still very much riding the Monster Train. When you write a review as positive as the one I did for Shiny Shoe’s stupendous Slay The Spire-like, you do end up doubting yourself. Oh God, you think, what if it isn’t all that great, actually? What if this was one of those times where

Rogue Legacy is getting a sequel, and today Cellar Door Games announced an early access date and showed off gameplay in a new trailer. On July 23, you can play Rogue Legacy 2 on both the Epic Games Store and Steam. If you remember the first game, you play as a constantly changing lineage as

I never got SpongeBob Squarepants. When he was in his pomp, I was in that awkward pre-teen phase where I thought I was too old to just enjoy it as a cartoon, but not quite old enough to be part of the older folk that watched. Because of that, I never played Battle For Bikini

Update: Square Enix has confirmed that Marvel’s Avengers will be a launch title on both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, and that a free upgrade to these versions will be available to players who buy either the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One versions. Players who do take advantage of this offer will also be able

I am extremely generous to games, although mostly in my memory. My recollection of Call Of Juarez: Gunslinger is of a genre-busting, frame-breaking piece of Brechtian Estrangement. A first-person shooter that played with concepts like verfremdungseffekt, the unreliable narrator and the Rashomon effect, it was a text that… Yeah, no John’s memory, it’s just a

This weekend, Lord Of The Rings Online players gathered to commemorate the life of British actor Sir Ian Holm, who passed away aged 88 last Friday. Despite a filmography spanning over five decades, the late actor is best known by many as the definitive Bilbo Baggins – taking the role of the centenarian hobbit in

Ah who needs magic in RPGs anyway, right? Henry of Skalitz of Kingdom Come: Deliverance fame sure doesn’t. If you’re looking for another big RPG to tickle your tabard, Warhorse Studios’ big RPG about life as a blacksmith turned soldier in medieval Europe is getting a free to play weekend. “Without a home, family, or future

NetherRealm’s 2013 fighting game Injustice: Gods Among Us is a bombastic good time. In his review, our own Andrew Reiner said the game was, “a success on both fighting and comic book levels.” But you don’t have to take our word for it, you can get the game for free this weekend and play it

Remember Arms? Anyone? We’ll wait. We’ll, at least Nintendo seems to hold the fighting game in high regard, announcing in March that the next DLC character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate would be pulled from its roster of long-limbed heroes. But which one could it be? You won’t have to wait long to find out.

Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy The Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee has rated the unannounced Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Toys for Bob, the studio behind the well-received Spyro Reignited trilogy of remasters, is developing the title. Here’s some background for the game as well: Crash is relaxing

This week we’re being vaguely topical! Imagine that. Today, because we’ve come through what we might call phase one of the not-E3 livestreams (with phase 2 starting this weekend with the EA stream and the Steam Game Festival) we decided to behave like proper games journalists. We pick out some favourites and standouts from the

Cyberpunk 2077 was initially scheduled to release last April, but then developer CD Projekt Red announced that the game had been pushed to a new September 17 release date. Despite things recently looking good for that timeframe, today the studio released a statement saying the game will now hit on November 19. An important development

Trust me, you’d remember if you had Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. One of the last things I expected to do in Samorost 3 was have an impromptu jam session with a singing frog hippo, bopping lizard ferret and tooting fish

This holiday season’s next-gen home consoles are sure to be an amusement park of games, so it’s fitting that Frontier Developments is bringing its Planet Coaster park builder to both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox One. The game was originally planned for just the current-gen consoles, and due to the addition of the upcoming system as well,

Robber band Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. There aren’t enough heist-focused video games. You’d think the ludicrous success of Grand Theft Auto V would’ve led to more Ocean’s inspired capers, but no. Where are all my Nespresso-drinking, salt and pepper hair-having

Generation Zero’s next chapter arrives in just a few days on June 23 – if you’re on PC. If you’re on Xbox One or PlayStation 4, you’ll have to wait until later this summer to get your hands on FNIX Rising. With this expansion pack comes 10 new side missions, a new Harvester class, stuff
