You asked and Bethesda answered:Starfieldis getting a major March update filled to the brim with a bunch of new features and improvements.When we reviewedStarfieldlast year, we couldn’t say enough nice things about it. In a10/10 reviewwe praised its vast open universe and cosmic mysteries. Not everyone thinks quite so highly of the game, however, with many agreeing that itfalls shortof Bethesda’s usual RPG offerings. Whatever your stance, this new update should please almost everyone....

You couldn’t be blamed for forgetting thatStarfieldhas an expansion on the way. When the game launched last year, certain editions included access to as-yet unreleasedShattered Spaceexpansion. The expansion wasn’t elaborated on at the time and it certainly hasn’t been mentioned since. All we know is that it’s in the works and is assumed to be released sometime this year. Well, it looks as ifShattered Spacecould be releasing a tad sooner than expected....

NACON and Spiders have revealed that the upcomingGreedfall II: The Dying Worldis coming to Steam in early access this summer.The originalGreedfalllanded onPC,PlayStation4, andXboxOne back in 2019. Combining the swashbuckling action ofAssassin’s CreedBlack Flagwith a lush fantasy world akin to that ofHogwarts Legacy, the game offered an intriguing premise and beautifully realised open world. It split reviewers though, landing a score of 72. Awarding a score of 82, IGNpraisedthe “morally complex tale”, referring to the game as a “crowd pleaser”, while GameSpot was slightly more critical ofGreedfall’s “lack of nuance or innovation” in itsreview....

Just look atFortnite. OrApex Legends. Then there are bangers likeFallout Shelter,The Finals, andConqueror’s Blade.Freedoesn’t always mean bad. But when it does? Hoo boy, it really does. Advert Advert At first glance one could see why it’s currently so popular. It’s completely free. A cursory glance at itsSteampage tells me it’s some kind of party game with anime characters, which sounds like it could be fun. Except the vast majority reviews appear be slamming the game, with a rating of Mostly Negative based on 2,524 reviews at the time of writing....

We had a sneaking suspicion that an official announcement was coming, but there’s nothing quite like the validation of having your suspicions confirmed. It was only a few days ago that we gave you an update onTerminator Survivors, reminding you all that it’sin developmentand going ahead, despite all the radio silence. Today, we can say it’s (finally) been officially announced. Watch what happened after Judgement Day in theTerminator Survivors’The Aftermath' trailer...

If you were to ask an RPG fan what their favourite video games of the last decade are, there’s a good chance that they might mentionThe Witcher 3: Wild HuntandBaldur’s Gate 3. Released initially in 2015 forPC,PlayStation4 andXboxOne, before arriving later on new-gen consoles and theNintendoSwitch,CD Projekt’s RED’sThe Witcher 3: Wild Huntis a true great of the RPG genre. It’s why fans' excitement is through the roof for whenThe Witcher 4finally arrives....

What are you playing this weekend? That feels like a particularly difficult one to answer right now, because there is simplyso much to play.At present I’m doing my best not to cave and buyFinal Fantasy VII Rebirth, because I know I absolutely don’t have time to properly enjoy it beforeDragon’s Dogma 2comes out. So I’m tempted to go back and playElden Ringahead of the DLC, but for some reason I also just finished replayingThe Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time, so I kind of want to dip intoMajora’s Mask....

Cyberpunk 2077has received a fair few updates over the past year, many of which have brought the game to not only a playable state but to a point where many consider it among the best RPGs of the past few years. It all started with update 2.0 which paved the way for the DLC,Phantom Liberty, bringing so many quality-of-life changes that players were swarming back to theCD Projekt Redtitle. The game is now in such a good place that the developers are thrilled with the quality, as are fans....

The status of the Dark Souls series is legendary, and its influence can be seen in hundreds of games we play today. It essentially took the RPG formula and turned it into an entirely new genre, soulslikes. This eventually blossomed into other FromSoftware titles likeBloodborne, and of courseElden Ring, which will receive a major expansion in June,Shadow Of The Erdtree. Check out the gameplay trailer forElden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtreebelow...

This week,Sony issued over 900 layoffsimpacting some of its keyPlayStationdevelopment studios including the likes ofGuerilla Games,Insomniac GamesandNaughty Dogto name a few. Now, it’s the turn ofEAwith a reported 700 employees being forced out of work as the company issues its strategy to maximise profits and cut costs....

Something truly beautiful can be born from combining together the aesthestics of two exceptional games; we’re seeing this right now from a new action RPG.We appreciate that a lot of you are more concerned withElden RingDLC news rather than new games to play – you need to prepare for that inevitable’Malenia 2.0' boss fight. Nevertheless, whileShadow of the Erdtreeis calling to us, it won’t arrive for several months yet, and so it makes sense to keep your reflexes sharp elsewhere....

Cait Sith is best known for their appearance inFinal Fantasy VII, however, they’ve been a part of the Final Fantasy universe since the second game back in 1988. Admittedly, they only appeared as an enemy character and looked more like a panther than how we see them now. This happened again inFinal Fantasy IVand they only began to look how we see them now, with the red scarf wrapped around a black and white cat, inFinal Fantasy VI....
