News Relaxing City Builder Islanders: Console Edition Puts Down Roots on PS5, PS4 This Month
Chill strategy game coming soon
City builders and strategy games can get a little bit fussy, especially when it comes to consoles, but it looks like Islanders: Console Edition could be a chilled-out solution. This indie title dropped on Steam in 2019, where it was very warmly received, and it's now being made for PlayStation 5 and PS4 for us dirty...
News Shovel Knight: Pocket Dungeon Digs Up Action Packed Puzzles on PS4 This Winter
Block chaining
Shovel Knight remains an iconic indie game hero, but he's not been out on a new adventure for a good while.

While things remain quiet on Shovel Knight Dig, the developer has just dropped a new trailer...
News Vroom! Is the Love Child of Fall Guys and Micro Machines
Coming to PS5
Vroom! is a solo project from developer Adam Bernath, and our first thought when we saw it was Fall Guys meets Micro Machines. It's an online multiplayer game for 60+ players in which everyone drives a little toy vehicle around obstacle-filled rooms, and you all have to reach the end goal one way or another. It looks kinda silly (and...

Case in point: this new trailer, which focuses on...
News Blazing Strike Channels Old School Capcom and SNK Fighting Games on PS4 in 2022
Ready?
Blazing Strike is a 2D fighting game that's punching its way onto PlayStation 4 in 2022. A throwback to Capcom and SNK classics, this pixelated nostalgia trip certainly looks the part, and we're loving the character designs. As with any fighting game, going hands-on will be the only way to determine its true worth — but there's no question...
News Modern Metroid Axiom Verge 2 Shifts Dimensions in PS5, PS4 Trailer
On the verge of something special
When the original Axiom Verge released, it was sold on the premise that it was a Metroid game made by one man. It just so happened that it deployed right at the apex of the Metroidvania boom, and was one of the best around. The sequel, though, will expand massively on the sequel by introducing a dimension shifting...
News Kitaria Fables Is Half Action RPG, Half Farming Sim, Adventuring to PS5, PS4 in September

News GRID Legends Announced, Features Live Action Story, Multi-Class Races, and More

The third character trailer for Tales of Arise is here, highlighting another party member who you're free to play as in battle.

News FIFA 22 Officially Revealed, and It's All About HyperMotion Gameplay Technology
EA Sports aiming for realism
EA Sports has pulled back the curtain on FIFA 22 with a predictably vague trailer — but the gist of it is that this year's instalment is powered by 'HyperMotion Technology'.

Every step you take in the game's procedurally generated...
