I went into Game for the first time in a while yesterday. I was met with a bit of a surprise. PSVR2 – a steal at nearly £600 with a game. I’m not sure who is doing the stealing, but it isn’t whoever bought it. And that’s all good and well. People can buy what they want for whatever price they want. I can call them ridiculous, they can ignore me. It’s the circle of life. But once the initial…

Prepare for the incoming storm, World Warriors. Rashid of the Turbulent Wind makes his Street Fighter 6 debut in Fighting Ground and the single-player World Tour mode starting on July 24. With a whirlwind of moves that will send him flying through each fight, Rashid leaves all opponents in the dust – unless they decide to Like and Subscribe. First appearing in Street Fighter V, the charming Rashid returns to the series, searching for a new outlook on life. Having…

Gylt is a very personal game that comes from the close experience of one relative of a studio member. Her little cousin was suffering from bullying at school. And what’s more terrifying than what’s more realistic and closer to our daily lives. We developed this original idea into a delicate horror game in which our young protagonist, Sally, is looking for her missing cousin, Emily. In her journey she will start running away from bullies and will be taken into…

To cut a long story short, the answer is a resounding no – but only for now. Before we get too much into this topic, it should be said that this is probably an answer that is probably relatively unique to each of us. Depending on how your feed looks – perhaps influenced by what you used Instagram for – you might have a very different answer. But the point remains that you’ll not be able to use Instagram’s (and…

Bitwave Games, a modern retro game studio and part of Embracer Freemode, is delighted to announce the long-awaited NES™ platformer Gimmick! Special Edition is available for digital download today. A legendary title from SUNSOFT, masters of the NES™ platformer, Gimmick! has achieved near mythical status thanks to its impressive visuals, incredibly addictive physics-based gameplay and limited release status. Originally arriving in 1992, late in the lifecycle of the NES™, Gimmick! was only available across Japan and Scandinavia, securing its ...

It’s been rumoured for almost as long as the infuriating Silent Hill stuff, but it might actually be happening: Red Dead Redemption might be making its return. Red Dead Redemption has been rated in Korea. In 2023. And that doesn’t make much sense unless it is being re-released in some way or another. Now that doesn’t mean it’s the remake that we’ve all been waiting for and, yes, expecting for the last few years. The rumours were pretty certain –…

Assassin’s Creed is the only game Ubisoft seem to be making, with 11 new titles in the works. That’s according to a leak that’s also promising a Black Flag remake. That’s four single-player games, three multiplayer games, two VR games (an unreleased game and a sequel to the unreleased game), a mobile game and, yes, a Black Flag remake. Why? Who the hell knows? That’s a lot of Assassin’s Creed. It might be too much Assassin’s Creed. Think about it.…

Nineties warriors unite: it’s time for the battle of Sonic and Mario to rage again. For the first time in forever, new major 2D entries in both franchises will be coming to fans. And to celebrate I propose we do away with the corporate worship of modern gaming fandoms, and beat the shit out of each other in the schoolyard instead. Because look at how awesome our heroes look in the picture above. Look at the edge, the sheer cool…

There was a time when I was certain the newly announced Metal Gear Solid Collection would be a cash grab. I hoped I’d be wrong. Taking the original HD Collection off the shelf and just smashing it on PS5 would have been very, very easy. Even the addition of the original Metal Gear Solid felt a bit like we were getting additional value. But as part of the Nintendo Direct, Konami confirmed exactly what we would be getting. They also…

The second part of the Final Fantasy 7 remake – Rebirth – got a reveal yesterday, and it was the most joyous moment of gaming I’ve had in a long time. Sometimes you get into a rut, and nothing you play seems to capture your imagination. We’ve all been there. And that might be due to busy schedules, or changing tastes, or a mild dislike of many modern games. For me personally, it’s just a bit of burnout. But I…
