Motherboards with hidden connectors are shaping up to be one of few fun concepts that make it mainstream

has its fair share of criticisms, especially when it comes to the Pal workforce that fuels the economy in the game, but one teased potential feature would make it feel like an entirely different experience altogether. Though it's more than possible to butcher your Pals in via the Meat Cleaver, cooking in the game is done through a set of different menu screens, and other than the actual act of butchering, it seems fairly innocuous.

All it took was one look at the pedigree of the devs behind Shadow of the Ninja Reborn for it to rocket up my wishlist for new games of 2024 - but then the trailer absolutely confirmed that this is one to watch for retro enthusiasts.

Before Doom became the lean, mean murdermachine we know and love, Id Software had far bigger plans for their seminal satanic FPS. Ideas dropped during development include a big focus on story, four playable characters, elemental shields, demonic weapons, and more. The mod Doom Delta brings to life many such ideas from sources including an old design document and leaked alpha builds, which I think makes it fanfic? A new version of Doom Delta launched last week, offering a curious vision of the many Dooms Id didn't make.

One Terraria player is attempting the ultimate challenge: a hardcore, master mode run with a mod that makes 30 times more enemies spawn. If that sounds ridiculous and impossible, well… that's because it is.

Obsidian's Avowed is a game for the more indecisive or changeable RPG player, with no "enforced" classes and an emphasis on easily respeccing and experimenting with different combinations of weapons and abilities. Or at least, that's my overall takeaway from a new Xbox podcast interview featuring game director Carrie Patel and gameplay director Gabe Paramo.

Broken Ranks  is marking its second anniversary, with some gifts for the players and preparation for the next major update coming this week, Shadow of Hope.

The design of a spray exclusive to Overwatch 2's latest hero, Mauga, has left some players scratching their heads. A lot of people have put forward some pretty reasonable explanations for the cosmetic's oddities.

Last week, many of us were excited to see the official reveal trailer of MachineGames’ upcoming Indiana Jones title The Great Circle. But footage shown at Developer Direct last week appears to be hinting at the return of Quake.

So, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is a first-person game. This has come as a bit of a surprise to some people, who likely were expecting a third-person perspective thanks to not just the Great Circle’s movie roots but also Indiana Jones’ influence on the video game industry. But do you really want another Uncharted game where the only significant difference is that your sarcastic hero now wears a hat? After six Uncharted games, a reboot trilogy of Tomb Raiders, and uncountable third-person adventures going back to the dawn of the medium, I think developer MachineGames has made a wise move in making Indiana Jones first-person.

Life is Strange's director says he would've loved to have developed the universe further, but that Square Enix decides where the series goes from here.
