Despite investors moaning that Elden Ring's success hasn't been milked hard enough financially, FromSoftware parent company's CEO has kept his job

Forget anything that happened to twist Elden Ring's Lands Between into the shape the Tarnished finds them in during their wander from boss to boss. All of it pales in drama to the corporate battle currently going on behind-the-scenes at FromSoftware's parent company Kadokawa. Their CEO, Takeshi Natsuno, has kept his job at the firm's latest annual meeting, despite ongoing attempts to oust him by an activist investor group who claim Kadokawa haven't wrung the maximum amount of cash out of Elden

Motorsport Manager 2 races onto Steam in 2027, teasing wannabe Wolffs and hopeful Horners with more dynamic race strategies and expanded off-track stories

Trying to persuade egotistical racing drivers not to crash into each other while keeping an eye glued to the sky in case a sudden deluge necessitates a switch to wets is pretty stressful, but at least when the cars are only virtual ones it's a fun kind of stress. A fresh set of team boss shoes to jump into is set to hit Steam in 2027, with the very straightforwardly named Motorsport Manager getting a sequel in the form of the equally straightforwardly named Motorsport Manager 2.

7 Nights with Vroombi combines the horror of a haunted house with the mounting irritation of being a robot vacuum cleaner

Many years ago, Suzy Eddie Izzard did a stand-up routine about different makes of vacuum cleaner, including the immortal "Hodededededer" of undecided linguistic origin. Izzard also enjoys sending up cheesy horror movies. Now that I've played 7 Nights with Vroombi, which launches today on Steam, I'd love to see Izzard do a sketch about a robot vacuum cleaner stuck in a haunted house. Because that is what 7 Nights with Vroombi is about. Each night, you emerge from your nook to ingest a certain

Former Halo art director who complained about "fraud" and "cronyism" warns looming Xbox layoffs are a chance for bosses to settle scores

Former Halo Studios art director Glenn Israel has warned current Xbox staff that Microsoft's impending "reset" of their gaming business is an opportunity for studio execs to rid themselves of employees who've criticised their behaviour, citing his own, alleged experience of being driven out by "senior Halo representatives". Israel is encouraging any and all Xbox staff who've made trouble for bosses to speak to a lawyer and take certain steps to protect themselves, before the hammer comes down.

League of Legends' Vanguard anti-cheat finally gets the option to only run when you fire up a game, as Riot roll out "on-demand sessions" for "sufficiently secured" PCs

League of Legends and Valorant developers Riot Games have added an optional "on demand" mode to their Vanguard anti-cheat software. With this new mode enabled, Vanguard will only run when you fire up a game it needs to be active for, duly shutting down once you exit said game. Up until now, the only option has been the default one: having Vanguard start up the moment you turn your PC on, then run in the background until you shut down. Read more

Save the hassle of building a PC with these six anti Prime Day prebuilt PC deals I've spotted

I swear to God it's too warm to do anything in the UK this week. I am barely coping in the heat if it wasn't for the array of small Ohyama Woozoo fans I have, plus an array of Meaco air circulators and more besides. Of course this week is the week that all the deals are happening - that's just the way of the world it seems - and none of us can catch a naffing break. Godspeed to anyone outside doing real work in this UK heat - can we make air con mandatory in new homes, please? Being too hot to
