SNK is aiming for the second quarter of next...
News That Koei Tecmo Teaser Was for a New Horse Racing Game
Neigh way?
Koei Tecmo caused a little bit of a stir last week when it revealed a teaser website for a new game. Text on the site read "the fated battle begins", making us immediately think of properties like Samurai Warriors. We couldn't have been further from the mark, really. Visit that same teaser website now and you'll find two horses staring...
News Looks Like Fortnite's Big Game Awards Announcement Has Been Leaked
Whoops
It seems that almost nobody in the games industry can keep a secret these days. Epic Games had planned to make some sort of announcement regarding its smash hit battle royale shooter, Fortnite, at The Game Awards 2018. While the start of season 7 is still set for 6th December, lining up rather nicely with Geoff Keighley's show, a bigger...

News Subnautica PS4 Launch Trailer Shows an Ocean World Full of Horrors
Deep trouble
Yesterday saw the launch of Subnautica on PS4, a cult hit underwater survival game.

It looks like it'll be quite atmospheric, and we imagine you'll want to...
News Treyarch Teasing First Major Update to Blackout Map in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4
Arriving next week?
Blackout has been a pretty big success for Treyarch. Creating a new battle royale experience for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 can't have been an easy thing to do, especially for a series with traditionally much smaller maps and player counts. The mode seems to have landed on its feet, offering a last man standing mode that can...

Rumour Will the Crash Team Racing PS4 Remake Drift Onstage at The Game Awards?
It's happening?
We've been half-expecting a remake of Crash Team Racing due to the success of Vicarious Visions' Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. It'd be very welcome; a return of one of PlayStation's best kart racers would not only be popular among fans, it'd also fill a gap in the market for a quality arcading racing title on PS4. Well, if this is...
News PS Now December Update Adds a Whopping 50 PS4 Games
Christmas has come early
Sony's adding 50 new games to PlayStation Now for the subscription service's big December update.

The battle for everyone's cash
Based on the Japanese releases of Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight and Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight, we always knew both games were gonna get a lot of downloadable content, but seeing it all listed with its Western pricing is enough to make our eyes water. Okay, so here's a rough outline of all the DLC. There's one...
Round Up Just Cause 4 Reviews Forecast Sunny Skies
Weathering the storm
The last major game release of 2018 is Just Cause 4, which launches on PS4 today.

We'll deliver our very own verdict soon,...
Store Update 4th December 2018 (Europe)
Why? Just 'cause
It may be December, but there are still big games coming to the PlayStation 4 this week.

Review Arca's Path - PSVR's Next Must-Have Title
Marble madness
2018 has been a stellar year for PlayStation VR.

News It's an Interesting Time to Be Posting The Last of Us: Part II Reaction Trailers
What the Ellie?
The Last of Us: Part II was announced two years ago, and while we’ve seen a handful of trailers now, the game’s still very much shrouded in mystery.

Review YouTubers Life OMG - A Video Making Sim That's Fun But Flawed
Dislike
This was only a matter of time, right? There's a sim/tycoon game for more or less every profession in some form or another, so one focusing on the noble art of the YouTuber was a dead cert. YouTubers Life originally launched on PC a couple of years ago and, as you might expect, it became a pretty popular title on the video sharing platform...
News The First Major Update for Battlefield V Has Been Delayed
Overture arriving a little later
Battlefield V seems to have been facing an uphill battle since it arrived at the end of November.

News Bethesda Says It'll Send Canvas Bags to Fallout 76 Collector's Edition Buyers
No, really
Bloody hell, this story's been something, hasn't it? For those totally out of the loop, allow us to quickly get you up to speed.

However, when fans received their Power Armor Edition of the game, they found that the canvas...

Most interestingly, Keighley wraps his tweet up by...
News RAGE 2 Will Make an Appearance at The Game Awards 2018 with New Trailer
Bang, another one
It's been a little while since we heard anything about RAGE 2. It made an appearance at Gamescom 2018, but we still know relatively little about the open world shooter. The fact it's a joint effort between Avalanche Studios and id Software is pretty exciting, but it remains to be seen whether it'll all come together. We'll at...

Review Asterix & Obelix XXL 2: Mission: Las Vegum - Well Done But Well Expensive
Asterix and what now?
Nothing about Asterix & Obelix XXL2 seems attractive at all from an outsider’s perspective. It’s a remaster of the second game in a duo of licensed PlayStation 2 and PC games based on a series of French comics – and that’s not even getting into that complete mess of a name. Given how inaccessible it all seems from...

News Life Is Strange 2's Second Episode Will Have Taken Four Months to Release
Due out in January
Life Is Strange 2 has proved to be, perhaps aptly, a bit of a strange one, hasn’t it? The sequel’s first episode launched in September with very little fanfare, even though it’s actually really, really good. While we’d expected the second instalment to be out by now, developer DONTNOD’s taken to its Tumblr page to...

How do you make money in Red Dead Online?

Review RIDE 3 - High-Octane Motorcycle Realism
Wheely quite something
If there’s one thing that RIDE 3 has in spades, it’s content. The sheer number of tracks and bikes to unlock, not to mention available modifications, is head spinning. Poor old motorcycle sim games seem to live in the shadow of their four wheeled brethren and are usually reserved for a more niche audience as a result. The...

News Battlefield V Half-Price Less Than a Week After Launch
BF BS
Battlefield V officially launched last week – well, for non-subscribing peasants anyway.
