We have McRimworlds at home Jonat is wandering around in the pitch black while everyone sleeps, even though he is: a) afraid of the dark, and b) a baby. This here isClanfolk, a settlement sim about a family of Scottish tamagotchis. The first thing you’ll be screaming at me, as if I have not noticed, is how recognisably Rimworldy it looks. You’re right. ConsideringRimWorldcribbed plenty of its own notes fromDwarf FortressandPrison Architect, it might feel incongruous to criticise Clanfolk for clinging too tightly to the hem of its inspiration....

“We’re taking a little breather from constant alpha/beta/update announcements to kill off the belief that, with the latest DLC ‘The Queen and the Sea’, we are at or near the end of Dead Cells' lifetime,” Motion Twin said. “We can see how people ended up thinking this, but reports of our death have been greatly exaggerated…” I like me some Dead Cells. So does Ed, whodipped back intothe game in January to see what it was like a few years after release....

Taking the toybox expansion for a spin Forza Horizon 5’sHot Wheels expansionis out and reader, I am in love. Firmly leaning – shoving, really – into the base game’s arcadey side, it’s a gleefully silly collection of physics-mocking race events across an eye-catching tangle of twisting, looping tracks. In between challenges, and flashbacks to covering the floor of my grandparents’ house with ribbons of orange plastic, I’ve also been testing how the DLC’s new skybound setting performs on PC....

Use code L3GION-10 to get 10% off the listed price Lenovo has deeply discounted one of its excellent Legion 5 17-in laptops over at its UK store, bringing an £850 model down to just £766. That’s a great price for a configuration that includes a Ryzen 5 5600H processor, RTX 3060 Laptop graphics card, 8GB of upgradeable DDR4 RAM and a 512GB NVMe SSD. The obvious disadvantage with this laptop is that it comes with just a single 8GB stick of RAM, but this is cheaply upgradeable -RAM-maker Crucialcan bring you up to 16GB of RAM for £30 (leaving the original stick in place) or 32GB of RAM for £120 (replacing the original stick with a dual-channel kit)....

The 3.94 update reworks capital ships and adds specialist NPC crew The latest freeNo Man’s Skyupdate is out today, and it’s a good job Hello Games called the thing Endurance. It takes some serious stamina to scroll through the patch notes. Looks like it might be worth perusing all the way through them though, with this 3.94 update to the game majorly reworking freighter bases and shipping in some NPC crew members to populate them with....

The latest update also adds a swathe of other accessibility options With the games release schedule starting to ease up a bit, I’ve finally found some time to really dig intoThe Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe. I’ve enjoyed revisiting this meta first-person puzzler, but sometimes I can only manage small chunks before its endlessly repeating corridors start to feel like they’re bearing down on me a bit. Thankfully, its latest quality of life update might just be the thing I need....

A huge discount to AMD’s flagship RX 6000 GPU. It’s a stunning turnaround for AMD’s high-end GPU, which outperforms the already-capable RX 6800 XTby around 10 percentaccording to my testing - and it now costs the exact same asthe cheapest RX 6800 XTat Ebuyer. This doesn’t exactly make it thebest value AMD graphics card- the budget and mid-range cards still offer the best bang-for-buck - but it makes the RX 6900 XT a uniquely tempting prospect if you have need of its healthy 16GB allocation of VRAM....

We chat to Dinga Bakaba and Dana Nightingale about finding Arkane’s playful side Arkane Studios’ back catalogue shows a team that’s constantly growing, changing and learning from their past – something that has never been clearer than in their most recent game,Deathloop. The studio’s latest feels at once unique and distinct – and yet clearly carries that Arkane DNA, which has been fine-tuned with each successive release. It’s an ethos encapsulated by the game’s own time loop, in which protagonist Colt Vahn relives the same day again and again as he searches for a way to break free of it - an idea that was, among other things, designed to encourage something hardcore Arkane fans had been doing already – replaying the game over and over again....
