Just £569 for the 512GB version of Lenovo’s shapeshifting handheld Not to mention the Legion Go’s party trick: the controllers detach, Nintendo Switch-style, with the right one able to turn into an improvised upright-style mouse. You’ll need a stable, flat surface to use this properly, a requirement that isn’t always forthcoming when you’re out and about, but I’ve found that with some practice it makes for a very workable combination of gamepad and classic mouse controllin’....

Stairs, the mech’s natural foe We do love a good diegetic interface here at the treehouse, whether that’s the analogue radar twisties ofHighFleet, or the myriad hefty flickables ofPVKK(Planetenverteidigungskanonenkommandant. Duh.) Thefifth mech jamis currently happening over at Itch.io, and the clear standout for me thus far isArmored Shell Nightjar. It’s a first person pilot-em-up that puts you in the cockpit of a grasshoppery rust-bucket carrying out a critical mission on an industrial desert planet....

“I had to create Kiryu from scratch,” says actor Ryoma Takeuchi If there’s one series that can be relied upon to dole out 80-hour helpings of joy straight into my eager face at regularly scheduled intervals, it’s theRPGbrawler stylings ofYakuza/Like A Dragon. One could, I believe, make a convincing argument forYakuza 0being - if not the best videogame ever made - then at least themostvideogame.

Haunted fridges buy you a lot of goodwill, honestly So I’ve just hopped on my motorbike, enjoying one of several pleasingly incongruent classical musical tracks that plays from the radio, on my way to tick tasks off a list in the top right corner of my screen by scavenging an abandoned hospital. It’s a great hospital, by the way. Spotlight-headed phantasma shamble about corridors reminiscent ofThe Division 2orThe Last Of Us’snaturalia....

Little by little Explaining why the studio has again decided to follow the early access route, Supra Games are straight-talking, calling it “a great advantage for feedback and motivation reasons.” “Seeing people play what you’re making, you are being reminded why you’re actually doing this and try to give people a better time instead of working on something in isolation forever. “We also simply need the Early Access income because we’re working on the game for 3 years now and production is expensive....

Schimis different: you play as a frog of the shadows, not some green attention-seeker....

All my games are ‘eternally unfinished’ Death Game Hotelcame out last week - a comically gory game in which players play casino-style card games around a table and raise the stakes by betting their own limbs. It’s a VR game, which is a break from the norm for White Owls, the studio run by Hidetaka “Swery” Suehiro (then again, what is their “norm”?).
