There’s Never Been A Better Time To Play Fire Emblem: Awakening

The world is a complicated place, but, regardless of political leanings, I think we can all agree that in 2016 I was much younger than I am in 2026. The younger me was a much more patient person, especially when it came to playing video games. I relished the opportunity to go on whatever ride designers and developers had spent years meticulously crafting. These days, however, I find myself frantically looking for the shortest and quickest path to satisfaction. Time is a commodity and I am not r

Previous Game Pass Strategy Sent Xbox Into 'Freefall,' CEO Asha Sharma Reportedly Tells Staff

It's no secret that Xbox has had a rough time in 2026. With nearly 2,000 staff cut as part of sweeping layoffs and studio closures, Microsoft's gaming business is in the middle of one of the most significant restructures in video game history. But what led Xbox to this point? According to CEO Asha Sharma, Game Pass played a key role.

You’re Likely Playing Star Wars: Galactic Racer All Wrong, Like I Did For My First 16 Hours

I've been loving Star Wars: Galactic Racer--I still cannot believe that a silly racing roguelite is one of my favorite games this year. But as it happens, I could have been enjoying it way more this entire time, because for the first 16 hours or so I've played, I've been playing all wrong: in third-person perspective. I'm still not sure how I didn't know that Galactic Racer allows you to race from the perspective of your pilot, Shade. Like, obviously, it would. It's not an uncommon practice

Razer’s Wolverine V4 Controller Is Overkill For Most Gamers, And That’s The Point

Razer has officially revealed the next entry in its line of high-end gaming controllers, the Wolverine V4 for Xbox and PC. Geared toward competitive gamers--not that there's anything stopping you from using it to play Vampire Survivors--and it focuses primarily on polling performance and thumbstick sensor architecture. One of the biggest changes is Razer choosing capacitive contactless sensors backed by a 16-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for the thumbsticks, rather than the usual Hal

Plus - Video: DevPlay: Ist Version 1.0 von Enshrouded ĂŒberhaupt der echte Launch?

Enshrouded von Keen Games ist seit Anfang 2024 im Early Access, wurde über 5 Millionen Mal verkauft und nähert sich nun dem nächsten großen Schritt: Version 1.0. Aber was bedeutet ein „Launch“ bei einem Spiel überhaupt noch, das bereits seit Jahren gespielt, verkauft und kontinuierlich erweitert wird? Darüber sprechen wir in dieser Folge von DevPlay direkt mit Antony von Keen Games, einem der Entwickler hinter Enshrouded. Gemeinsam mit Jan Theysen von

"Your word is undeniable truth": Can't be bothered to find evidence in Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy? It's fine, because no matter what, you're always right

If the promises that Owlcat are making of Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy aren't just PR fluff, it sounds like we might be in for a good bit of fun. In Dark Heresy, you are an acolyte of the Inquisition, meaning you have to look out for that titular heresy, which actually means that you're a space cop. Boo to that in the real world, obviously, but it's a narrative device that can make for some interesting storytelling, and according to the game's narrative designer, that storytelling manifests i

Take out some monsters and then turn them into take-out in the post-apocalyptic tycoon survival sim Midwest 90: Rapid City, out in early access next month

Surely Midwest 90: Rapid City isn't the first simmy, Fallouty game where you turn mutated monsters into grub and serve it up to customers in your own diner, is it? None come to mind right now. Let's not make any assumptions all the same, we can still appreciate what the tycoon survival sim set in a monster apocalypse is doing: letting you run a roadhouse that makes meals out of all the horrific creatures that want to kill you in an attempt to make ends meat. Yes, the pun's intended, I'm a prof

Forza Horizon 6 Dev Issues Statement In Response To Fan Frustration

"We want you to know we hear your feedback".When Forza Horizon 6 came out earlier this year, we were amongst many people who thought it was another fantastic entry in the series, and personally I think it's my favourite of all time due to its amazing map of Japan.However, over the past month in particular, we've come across quite a few instances of fan frustration in regards to the post-launch content the game has received. For example, if you look at the Forza Horizon Reddit community, some of
