Developers from the Sonic Frontiers team have shed some light on the project's road to release, revealing that in many ways, it was a make-or-break moment for the series.

Death Stranding is a sometimes meditative game about hauling cargo cross-country and trying not to trip up while doing so. But some fans are just now learning that its fiddly loop was actually inspired by a traditional Japanese occupation.

An Elden Ring player believes that the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC might take place in the ominously empty middle part of the game's map.

Let Me Solo Her, the legendary Elden Ring player who has helped countless others to defeat the hardest boss in the game, might finally move on from his crusade upon the release of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

Rejoice, Elden Ring fans, as the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion now has a nailed-down release date of June 21. What's better than that? Well, a discount on DLC of course. It's currently priced at $39.99 MSRP, sparking speculation that this could truly be a massive offering for fans. But, if you're on PC, we highly recommend picking up Shadow of the Erdtree from Green Man Gaming, a trusted online PC code merchant who currently has the DLC listed for $35.19 instead (see here) / £30.79 in the UK.

Riot Games has slapped an official title on its League of Legends fighting game spin-off, previously codenamed Project L, and the fan base isn't too fond. 

From Software president Hidetaka Miyazaki has acknowledged that members of the Dark Souls studio had misgivings about Elden Ring's shift to a full-blown open world format, while qualifying that Elden Ring's vision for an open world was never "traditional". Rather, Elden Ring is an "open world" game in the same way that Dark Souls is a "hard" game, Miyazaki feels. Confused?

I've never interviewed the guy, but I suspect he composes his responses using the game's soapstone messaging system.
