It always kind of felt like Elden Ring's super hard megaboss Malenia was a transplant from Sekiro, FromSoftware's fast-paced, parry-focused ninja action game. Her aggressive swordplay could just about do laps around my sluggish Tarnished⁠—she almost seems to demand a Wolf's precision.

You owe it to yourself to watch the best new movie on Netflix: the genre-bending Hindi thriller Jawan.

It was always going to be safe to guess Gen V would end in a massacre. Much like The Boys, the Prime Video college-set spinoff has never shied away from violence, but it has been exceptionally creative in how it presents that violence. Case in point: the puppet massacre in episode 5, a season highlight that’s both one of the funniest moments on the series and the most horrifying.

Don’t switch off Loki just yet. The fifth episode of Loki season 2 is hiding one of the MCU’s silliest sign-offs yet in a post-credits ‘scene.’

Overwatch 2’s collaboration with K-pop group Le Sserafim became more than a promise on Thursday. Le Sserafim released the official music video for “Perfect Night” through Hybe Labels, and for Overwatch fans, it meant a sneak peek at the skins that are coming to the game in early November.

In The Sims 4, your Sims will do all sorts of bizarre and occasionally infuriating things when left to their own devices. Fans of the game share the most annoying autonomous habits of their characters in The Sims 4.

A tiny character can make for a huge amount of fun for a TV show’s practical effects team. Gen V, Prime Video’s excellent college-set spinoff of The Boys, is fortunate enough to have a character just like this in Emma Meyer (Lizze Broadway), a student with the ability to shrink (or grow) based on how much food she consumes or expels.

Skull and Bones — Ubisoft’s upcoming pirate action-adventure — is now facing another delay, according to the company’s latest earnings report. What’s more, another “large” Ubisoft game is being pushed back, too, but it’s not currently clear which one it is. 

Blizzard has released the full Patch Notes for the 10.2 — Dragonflight: Guardians of the Dream content update coming November 7th.

There’s quite a bit of variety to be had on the Switch eShop this week, as Just Dance 2024 Edition, Dave the Diver, Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story, and Headbangers: Rhythm Royale are all out by November 1. That’s two music-based games! What is this, the 2000s?

Rhythm games just haven’t been the same since RedOctane saturated the scene, spawning 30 Guitar Hero games in a span of 5 years. In such a scenario, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is a most peculiar hero.

On Friday night, some hotfixes were pushed to the 10.2 PTR which contains massive nerfs to Dawn of the Infinites, and further tuning to the other dungeons.

Druids usually visit the Emerald Dreams in their dreams, but now that we've all journeyed here physically, Thaalean just finds it an incredibly disruptive place to try get some sleep. His bed is uncomfortable, there's far too much noise, and an invading Djaradin has left him anxious by stealing his hearthstone. After we help «feed two birds with one seed» by building a more comfortable bed and retrieving the Heated Hearthstone (the first of its kind that we've seen, its purpose seems to be to act more like a hot-water bottle than a teleportation device), we finally put Thaaleen to sleep by singing a lullaby.

You may know Inkle from interactive storygames like 80 Days, Heaven's Vault, Overboard!, and the Steve Jackson's Sorcery! Series. All of these games were made with Ink, a scripting language the studio created that uses markup instead of script, and came with Unity integration built-in. Given how badly Unity dropped the ball then also tripped over the ball then ate the ball while rolling around in dirt this year, it makes sense developers with an interest in using Ink might want to divorce it from Unity.

Nintendo has a well-known history of having games on its systems that are appropriate for all-ages. Especially the kids. With the Switch being out for five years now, that’s a large library of titles you can pick from for your kids. Here are some that we personally recommend!

Slay the Spire developer Mega Crit has released a new autobattler card game called Dancing Duelists. The game is available for free on itch.io and features a cast of different characters, all with their own decks, who you level up between dance-offs with new cards and abilities. It's way better than it has any right to be. 

Slay the Spire developer Mega Crit has released Dancing Duelists, a free new deck builder created during a three-week game jam as it explored the Godot engine after the recent Unity controversy.

The team behind the incredible roguelike deckbuilder Slay the Spire has released a new free game, after moving to the Godot game engine following Unity’s controversial fee policy that would see game developers paying more per game download. The free deckbuilding autobattler Dancing Duelists is available now, and it rules.

The WarioWare series is still going strong, with a new title on the horizon for early next month. The shoes are not yet empty, but Onion Soup Interactive is looking to fill them anyway with Super 56. That’s bold, but while they’re doing some heavy lifting to the formula, they’re bringing along their own drinks to the party. To be fair, it isn’t even WarioWare’s party. Puzzle & Action: Tant-R has been dancing since ‘93, but even I’m not certain they were the first to arrive.

‘Tis the season to bust out all of your grodiest games and get to bloody work. One of October’s haunting hallmarks is Namco’s Splatterhouse series, from the 1988 arcade classic to the overlooked 2010 reboot. Don’t let one of the series’ most charming entries pass you by, though. Splatterhouse: Wanpaku Graffiti is a chibi-style take on the gore-soaked side-scroller, and it’s the perfect game to blaze through at devilishly fast speeds this Halloween. 

The world of gaming is constantly evolving, and one game that is making waves in the gaming community is Anomaly Collapse. Spiral Up Games and RocketPunch Games have joined forces to bring us a turn-based roguelite strategy game like no other.

Amid Unity’s pricing policy disaster, the studio behind Slay the Spire held steady and announced a move to a new game development engine in protest. Developer Mega Crit has now shadow-dropped a new game - built on another engine in only three weeks - due to “recent events.”

In addition to character-specific trailers, it looks like Atlus has decided to favour us with location-based clips as well. Today, we got a look at what dorm life will be like in Iwatodai this time around, the occasionally surreal setting for Persona 3 Reload.

«Release notes for today are up» began the fairly typical message from the Counter-Strike 2 dev team, before things take a turn: «Shamone.» The world's greatest competitive shooter has in recent days been delighting players with a bug that has been christened the «Smooth Criminal», after Michael Jackson's dance moves that accompany the song of the same name, and feature exaggerated leaning postures. In-game players have been strafing and, thanks to this glitch, would sometimes appear to glide with the top half of their body leaning out in an odd manner: no doubt a thriller for them, but plain bad and dangerous for those on the receiving end.

Counter-Strike 2 built up an unbelievable amount of excitement for itself prior to its recent launch. Fans have waited years for Valve’s new shooter after exhausting hundreds and thousands (maybe even hundreds OF thousands) of hours in CSGO. Now that CS2 is finally here and open to all players, the developer has been releasing steady updates to address bugs, tackle other issues, and implement features. The most recent update fixes what could be one of the funniest bugs ever, much to our dismay.

Monster Hunter Now focuses on combat, treating exploration as a secondary feature. As such, the game has a simple but expansive equipment system. Equipment is broken up into Weapons and Armor. From there, Weapons branch out into different weapon types and Armor splits into different sets.

One of the big issues plaguing VR has been how insular it can be.  When playing you’re inside and the world is outside, and while the Quest 2 had a low-res black and white camera it was little more use than a way to not bump into things when outside of the user-defined play space.  One of the Quest 3’s biggest upgrades is to the camera system, though, which now works at a decent resolution in full color, and that means the flood of mixed reality games is just about to start.  New games are on the way while existing ones are getting updates, and one of the first is the excellent music game Synth Riders.

If Sony’s not going to make a sequel to LittleBigPlanet spinoff Sackboy: A Big Adventure, Dreamworks’ Trolls seem more than happy to fill the void. The musically inclined, up-combed little weirdos from the Trolls franchise are starring in a new game, Trolls Remix Rescue, that launches later this month. The game’s cooperative 3D platforming and character customization look very much in the vein of Sackboy’s games, as does its plush, cozily textured environments.

Counter-Strike 2 players have discovered a novel method of peek-shooting, the Michael Jackson Peek, which makes them look like the King of Pop, doing one of his slip-slidey dance moves. You might say there's been an outbreak of Smooth Crime, hee heeee! Sorry, I wish I were cool enough to explain this properly. It's probably best you just watch the footage below.

The world as we know it is on the brink of collapse in Invasion season 2 — but fortunately for humanity, Mitsuki Yamato (Shioli Kutsuna) isn’t going down without a fight.

Cities Skylines 2. Total War: Pharaoh. The upcoming Civilization 7. It’s a great time right now for strategy fans, with even the likes of Ara History Untold and Millennia from Paradox arriving soon to shake up the mix. But the ‘90s were a great time for the genre, too, thanks to Command and Conquer, Theme Hospital, the classic Age of Empires, and of course, Gangsters, one of the greatest and most unique strategy sims ever that you can get right now for less than the price of a Starbucks.

«In Baldur's Gate 3, when you wear shoes with metal on them, we wanted them to have a unique sound layer of metal clanks,» explains one of Baldur's Gate 3's sound designers, Glenn Goa, in a video demonstrating where he sourced the sound effect. «I made some sabatons in the forge (I learned blacksmithing) and recorded an hour session of walking on various surfaces with them loosely on.» 

An extremely dedicated Baldur's Gate 3 sound designer learned blacksmithing in real life in order to forge metal foot guards to create realistic "metal clank" noises for Larian's acclaimed RPG.

As the month dedicated to ghouls and goblins and human slashers, October might not be the best month to release a Wild West revenge tale featuring anthropomorphic coyote warriors. But, hear me out. Laika: Aged Through Blood is a self-described “motorvania” where our “mother coyote reloads her guns doing backflips” on a sick motorcycle. Now that’s something I’d play whatever the weather.

Ooblets is one of the cutest, most joyful games you’ll find, and it’s now out on Steam after a lengthy period of exclusivity on the Epic Games Store that caused a wave of controversy when it was announced back in August 2019. However, that particular book has now finally been closed, as the game arrives on Valve’s platform, runs “really well” on Steam Deck, and you can even transfer your save over if you want to keep your progress.

They sing! They dance! They call God the F-slur!

Baldur's Gate 3 players are once again pitching for the game's most pointless skill - and this time they've settled on Countercharm.

Since its launch in March 2017, the Nintendo Switch has gone from strength to strength, even surpassing the sales of Nintendo's previous best-selling console in the US, the Wii. This becomes even more impressive due to the fact that it is massively underpowered compared to its two main rivals in the gaming console industry - PlayStation and Xbox. While it doesn't get exactly the same AAA titles as its rivals, it does have its own exclusives which are extremely popular, especially among young gamers. Nintendo recently held its Direct event where it showcased several games that are due to launch soon, despite the Switch now nearing the end of its life-cycle and the Switch 2 reportedly in development.

As we stroll, slowly but surely, into spooky season, Diablo 4 is beginning a new season of its own. Following on from the Season of the Malignant, the Season of Blood is coming on October 17, bringing with it a veritable banquet of new content and new mechanics for the game. This is the biggest update Diablo 4 has seen yet, and looks set to revitalize the experience for new and returning players alike. What’s new in Diablo 4 Season of Blood? Read on to find out.

Blizzard has posted class tuning on the Patch 10.2 PTR which includes some large changes to Augmentation Evoker! The Guardians of the Dream PTR has been updated with the following changes:DRAGONFLIGHT SEASON 3CLASSES

Drawing with your butt summarizes what the WarioWare series is all about. Nintendo’s 20-year-old microgame franchise has never shied away from crude, gross-out gags and absurdist humor — this is a series famous for its nose-picking and fart-clearing games, after all — and WarioWare: Move It!, the latest microgame collection for Nintendo Switch, is no different.

What are you doing later? Bit of a night out in a bleak post-Soviet city, maybe? Drink? Dance? Drugs? Pet giant rats? Chat with a back-alley cyborg tech? Catch a poetry reading? Have a blood pressure test? Contemplate your empty existence? Eat a kebab? All this and more awaits you with Neyasnoe, the new first-person explorer from the creators of It's Winter. While It's Winter had you so bored and lonely you might cook egg on toast only to flush it down the toilet, here you're surrounded by life, and I'm not sure that's much more comfort.

Deities. Romance. Murder. Musical Numbers. If you're someone who finds those words even remotely titillating, then Stray Gods is the roleplaying musical for you. Summerfall Studios' melodic adventure asks players to change their fate by harnessing the powers of musical persuasion to unravel the mystery behind the Last Muse Calliope's death.
