Review Shape of the World (PS4)
A world of pure imagination
Vancouver-based developer Hollow Tree Games has come a long way since its first Kickstarter for Shape of the World in 2015.

Review BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle (PS4)
Double down
On a surface level it's easy to look at BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle and dub it Arc System Works Asset Reuse: The Game. In some ways that snarky title is disappointingly accurate, but it ignores the effort that's gone into making this stylish 2D fighter a lot of fun to play. Tag Battle features characters from four different...

Bethesda gets the big one
Every year, one of E3's biggest games gets pasted across the towers of The Hotel Figueroa in Los Angeles. We're going to assume that this prime advertising space costs quite a bit of cash to secure, so the fact that Bethesda's nabbed it for Fallout 76 is perhaps an indication that the publisher is going all-in on...
News Code Vein Release Date Set for Already Stuffed September
Bloody hell
Code Vein has a release date on PlayStation 4. Bandai Namco's action role-playing title takes heavy inspiration from the likes of Dark Souls and mixes it with a bit of God Eater. The game's looked decent enough based on what we've seen of it so far, but the jury's out on whether it can stand alongside its inspirations. Unfortunately,...

Bungie has been busy bigging up Destiny 2's second year of content, and ahead of its planned reveal livestream tomorrow, it's dropped a teaser for the shooter's Fall expansion. It's called -- rather ironically, if you're feeling snarky -- Destiny 2: Forsaken. Going by the little clip that the developer's posted to Twitter, the...
News Warner Bros Dons Its Overalls for New Announcement
Is Agent 47 heading to the races?
Yes, readers – E3 2018 is very much around the corner. The social media teasing never ends, and now it’s the turn of Warner Bros to take to Twitter with vague promises. The short video clip shows what appears to be some kind of racing game, but we reckon this may be a bait-and-switch and actually related to the...

Feature What Does Sony's E3 Announcement Record Look Like?
Have shorter PlayStation pressers led to less reveals?

Play fearlessly
There’s a new PlayStation commercial, and if you’ve been around since the PSone days, then this may feel like familiar territory. It’s more of a mood piece, built upon the slogan ‘Play Fearlessly’.

Review Far Cry 5: Hours of Darkness (PS4)
Hell or high whatever
In the two months since its release, the general consensus surrounding Far Cry 5 has settled on it being a solid experience but also one that didn’t bring anything new to the table.

Rumour Fallout 76 Release Date Could Be July, According to Leak
That would be fast
We know that Bethesda likes to launch its games quite quickly following their initial reveals, so we wouldn't be at all surprised to see the recently announced Fallout 76 release this year.

But sometimes it's a good idea to put...
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 222
YNWA
There's no Champions League final this weekend, which will no doubt please Loris Karius. There is football in the form of international friendlies, but no one cares about those.
