News Take a Long Look at DOOM Eternal in Gameplay Walkthrough with Creative Director
"The thinking man's action game"
We all know roughly what to expect from DOOM Eternal when it unleashes hell on PlayStation 4 in November, but it's been a little while since we've seen it properly.

News Garfield Kart Poses a Threat to Death Stranding with November Release Date
Give us the lasagne
You know when developers delay their games in order to give them a better release window, devoid of bigger titles that could take away market share?

Review Wargroove - Pixel Art Turn-Based Tactics Finally Invade PS4
Beware the groove
Like a pikeman deployed long after a battle gets underway, it feels like the arrival of Wargroove on PlayStation 4 is more than a little late.

News Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled Is Getting Microtransactions
Activision strikes again
Given how stingy Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is with its in-game currency, we had a feeling Activision would be injecting microtransactions into the game at some point, but that doesn't make it any less disappointing. When the title's next Gran Prix event goes live on the 2nd August, you'll be able to purchase Wumpa...

We honestly didn't expect Zane to have an Irish accent, but here we are. One of Borderlands 3's four playable characters, Zane is a specialist in high tech gadgets and subterfuge.

News Concrete Genie Will Not Support HDR At Launch
But post-launch support possible

Review Kill la Kill - If - Stunning Visuals Can't Mask a Sloppy Anime Fighter
Fan serviceable
If there's one thing Kill la Kill - If gets right, it's capturing the relentlessness of the source material. Even outside of combat, well made cutscenes do a great job of replicating the madness of the anime, right down to the completely over the top facial expressions of its crazy characters. From the word go, the story mode is a...

Review Wolfenstein: Youngblood - What Happened Bethesda?
Daddy issues
A few years back, Bethesda couldn’t stop boasting about its line-up of purely single player titles.
