In my expert opinion, the best thing a horror game about amnesia and half-glimpsed horrors can do upon launching is disappear. Was it ever there? Am I crazy in the coconut? So it’s thematically splendid (if practically inconvenient) that today’s Amnesia: Rebirth launch went spooky on Steam. At first some owners found it didn’t have

Screenshot Saturday Sundays! Unlike certain sea-dwellers on the site, I’ve already caved and cranked up the heating for a long, cold winter – so why not get yourselves toasty too and wrap up for another batch of lovely videogame screenshots? This week: picturesque platforming, sentient seeds, Welsh country horror, and trilobites. Let’s start today’s session
Between karaoke, crime drama and shareholder meetings, it’s safe to say Yakuza is about so much more than just fighting. But you do punch a lotta blokes in those games. If you wanted to punch a whole lot more, Streets Of Kamurocho reimagines the Sega series as a side-scrolling brawler. Just be quick – the
Ghost of Tsushima: Legends is out now for PlayStation players to enjoy and if you haven’t checked it out yet, you can learn all about it with our interview with the game’s creative director right here. With raids and various co-op missions, there is a lot to enjoy, but there is one aspect of the
The Oregon Trail was a favorite in computer labs across the country in the ’80s, but its story begins even further back. If you have fond memories of crossing rivers, going hunting, and dying of dysentery, then you will want to check out a new documentary about the origins of the classic piece of educational software.
When Microsoft purchased ZeniMax for a cool $7.5 billion, speculation was rampant about what that means for the future of franchises under that publisher’s umbrella. Most notably, titles under Bethesda’s direction such as Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5. While we ourselves did a deep dive into the likelihood of those series going Xbox-only from

A Panel Shaped Screen is a monthly column where Giada Zavarise explores how comics and videogames inspire each other. For this last issue, she summoned comics writer and man who has nothing to do with RPS Kieron Gillen for a chat. Autumn. Nature renews itself. Green shades turn to warm reds. The air gets chiller,
The new generation of gaming looms ahead but current-gen Xbox owners have a new UI update to enjoy before the jump into next gen arrives. A new UI update for Xbox is available now, completely overhauling the interface a month before the X/S arrives. The new Xbox UI update allows players to make even more
From tomorrow, videos on RPS will autoplay as you scroll down to them in an article. They will play without sound. I know many of you won’t like this change, but let’s talk about why it’s happening. First of all: we don’t like this change either. We have resisted introducing autoplay videos for years, but
Baldur’s Gate 3 Early Access is live on PC and we’ve been having way more fun that we thought we would trying to get gross parasites out of our heads. With a good 25-30+ hours of game time to enjoy with Act I, many have been wondering if their created characters and journey would carry
If you’re looking for a great SSD deal this Amazon Prime Day, you may be slightly disappointed with the selection available on Amazon US today. While there are a couple of stand-out hits, including a 2TB WD Blue 3D NAND for $176 (down from $230), it’s not exactly as wide-ranging as the UK deals. Happily,
10/13/2020—October 13 Release Notes Living World Halloween Once again, the gates of the Mad Realm have opened and Kryta’s most infamous monarch, Mad King Thorn, has returned to hold court in Lion’s Arch!

Both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S are killing it when it comes to backwards compatibility, including in the realm of VR. While PSVR will work on PS5, including PS4 VR games with it, there is one oddity that players should keep in mind: the PS5 camera won’t work with it. And you’ll need
How do you celebrate the eighth birthday of an MMO that technically still hasn’t been fully released? Why, you hold a Q&A to let fans know that its singleplayer spin-off is nowhere near coming out either, of course. Over the weekend, the Star Citizen devs, Cloud Imperium, held a Q&A over on their forums as
K/DA is the digital K-pop band from Riot Games and with their full EP dropping later this year, this group is taking over several Riot properties including League of Legends, Legends of Runeterra, and Teamfight Tactics.

Screenshot Saturday Sundays! We’re well into Autumn now, readers. And while it’s tempting to go look at the lovely orange leaves, I’m gonna have to ask you to stay inside and check out some neat videogame screenshots. It’s warmer in here, anyway. This week: Broken frogs, carnivorous plants, caramel waffle cars and some old fashioned
Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsushima is a stunningly beautiful story that helped end the era of PS4 on an incredible note. For those interested in Sony’s Game Boost feature, this is an option that will make the PS4 game even more breathtaking. The PS5 Game Boost feature aims to improve performance of PlayStation 4 titles
Yup, that’s right. You spent 45 minutes in Baldur’s Gate 3‘s character creator looking at drow and tieflings, considering horns and tails and beards, oh my. Then you said “oh, to hell with it” and made a human Cleric with your own skin and eye color whose face is just a little more attractive than
Earlier this week, an EA Motive dev confirmed that Star Wars: Squadrons would be getting no new additional paid content, but that doesn’t mean this studio doesn’t have its hands full. In a recent EA blog update, Motive’s Patrick Klaus offered a little insight into what’s next for this team. When talking about the new
Best Buy, no. I will not accept that you can start your Black Friday sales on a Tuesday. It simply doesn’t make any sense. Sure, maybe if you’d called your legally distinct Amazon Prime Day event something like, “Black Friday Tuesday Wednesday”, it might have been vaguely acceptable. But just straight up calling your October
If you’ve purchased FIFA 21 on current-gen consoles and are planning to pump tons of hours into Career Mode, Pro Clubs, Online Seasons, and Co-Op Seasons, be forewarned: your saves won’t transfer to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. In response to Eurogamer’s questions about the reasons behind this decision, FIFA Executive Producer Aaron McHardy stated
The Crucial MX500 has been my favourite budget SATA SSD for absolutely yonks, and right now you can pick up a 250GB model for an all-time low of just £30 over at Amazon. That’s even lower than it was a couple of weeks ago, and an absolutely stonking SSD deal if ever I saw one.
Every day this week, Netflix has shared new images for The Witcher season two. Monday brought our first look at Geralt’s new armor with Tuesday ringing in that Ciri love. Now we’ve got our first look at Yennefer’s return from the Battle of Sodden. The latest look comes by way of the official The Witcher Netflix
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. My mate Greg is one of those people who’s phenomenally gentle and kind-hearted, but has a surprisingly brutal taste in media. He introduced me to a big chunk of the metal bands I listen to, and
Well, it happened. We’re finally going back to the Baldur’s Gate series, courtesy of Larian Studios. The masters that gave us the majestic Divinity: Original Sin series are taking a crack at the legendary Dungeons & Dragons franchise with Baldur’s Gate 3.

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time… At its core, My Exercise is a game about a chubby boy doing sit-ups with his dog. Specifically, into his dog. With his little round legs anchored firmly beneath his dog’s tummy, chubby boy rises and
A new Free Guy trailer dropped earlier today that provides more backstory details. Ryan Reynolds is a bank teller named Guy that lives in an MMO. Everyday he wakes up, goes to work, dies from reckless, unfeeling players, and respawns in his bed. This is normal for our kind-hearted protagonist because he doesn’t know that he’s merely
