The next game from Arkane founder Raphaël Colantonio is a first-person ‘retro sci-fi RPG’

It’s odd to think back on a time before Baldur’s Gate 3 - and even stranger to think that the sprawling Dungeons & Dragons RPG was actually kicking around for a long while before its 1.0 release blew up awards shows, social media feeds and fan-fiction hubs last summer. Putting the game out into early access at the end of 2020 - multiple years before it was ready for a full release - worked out very well for Larian though, so it’s maybe no surprise that they plan to do exactly the same with whatever comes next.

There's no denying Baldur's Gate 3's massive popularity, and its director of publishing, Michael Douse, has drawn comparison between it and the survival crafting game Palworld for finding success with a game that not all investors might have taken a chance on. 

One Red Dead Redemption 2 player has been rootling around in the game's audio files, and uncovered some behind the scenes bloopers as a result.

The next game from the studio behind Celeste and TowerFall won’t be releasing this year as originally planned.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is, to put it mildly, an atypical RPG. To put it less mildly, Capcom was well and truly off its rocker and on a bender with this one. Exhibit A: the Unmaking Arrow, an arrow so powerful that, per its hilariously blunt in-game description, it auto-saves the game when fired, "so choose your moment with due care." Dragon's Dogma 2's approach to game design – friction-first, rule-breaking, and seriously unserious – has sparked some division but ultimately earned the game critical acclaim, and the Unmaking Arrow in particular has been lauded by many veteran game developers.

The developer of indie hit Celeste has revealed its next game is no longer releasing in 2024 but is still "making progress."

If you missed the Max Payne craze of the early 2000s, don’t worry; Remedy Entertainment and Rockstar Studios have you covered. This might be old news at this point, but Remedy Entertainment entered into an agreement with Rockstar Games back in April 2022, announcing that they would be remaking both Max Payne and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne as a single title. We are here to talk about how gorgeous this next-gen Max Payne remake is going to look.

The developer of cozy Lord of the Rings game, Tales of the Shire, has shared another glimpse into the upcoming game and promised a "trailer coming soon."
