For the next free update in the ever-expanding No Man’s Sky, industrious developer Hello Games has completely rebuilt space stations. As it notes in a press release, previously these were one aspect of the game which weren’t procedurally generated, but when the update launches later today (27th March), that will all change.

As was heavily rumoured, the new Marvel game is indeed a six-on-six, team-based, hero-based multiplayer shooter. It's called Marvel Rivals, and it's built around each character having their own unique abilities. You've got the Hulk, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Dr. Strange, Black Panther… It looks to be quite a robust roster.

Renegade Nell is a puzzle. Boasting the creative pedigree of screenwriter Sally Wainwright (Gentleman Jack) and the talents of a cast of British TV stalwarts, the story of a flame-haired, 18th-century English highwaywoman with the powers of a 20th-century superhero would seem to be a shoo-in for the renfaire bitches (it’s me, I’m renfaire bitches).

The hot ticket for fans of cinematic thrills this April is Monkey Man, the first directorial effort from acclaimed actor Dev Patel. The marketing for the film promises exquisitely captured and well-crafted beatdowns in service of an emotionally relatable tale of avenging familial loss.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom lets you build a whole lot of ridiculous contraptions out of mundane parts, and there's nothing more mundane than the portable pot.

Spring isn’t just a transitional time for the weather and for gardens — it’s a major transitional time for new movie releases. Studios usually devote January and some of February to wide releases of all the Oscar-bait prestige movies that got tiny awards-qualification releases in December, and to dumping the smaller movies they have no faith in. And by the beginning of May, the first round of summer blockbuster madness will hit.

Street Fighter pro and legendary fighting game community (FGC) member Michael "BrolyLegs" Begum has died at the age of 35.

Tilda Swinton is the sort of actor whose presence on screen makes a film a little more beguiling. Whether she’s playing someone otherworldly, like the vampire burnout Eve in Only Lovers Left Alive,or someone more grounded, like the academic Alithea in Three Thousand Years of Longing, there’s something ethereal about the way she inhabits a character, as if she’s always been there, waiting for the story to show up around her.

There’s a huge amount of nostalgia for classic side-scrolling platformers like Mega Man X and Sonic, but that means there’s also countless games that have struggled to capture that same energy and appeal.
