“I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow to the Needler” Halo InfiniteForge mode users were already creating somewild mapson launch day, so it shouldn’t be surprising to see someThe Elder Scrolls V: Skyrimlocales appear in-game too. If you’re unfamiliar, Forge is a long-time Halo mode that allows players to create their own custom maps and modes. In the past, players used Forge to remake classic maps or remix existing ones....

The latest update rounds out the story We Are The Caretakers is an odd title for a game with XCOM-esque combat, but that’s because this is an environmentalist game at heart. Your goal in this Afrofuturist sci-fi is to protect the fantastical, endangered animals that your world relies on - though you’ll still be shooting other spacefarers along the way. We Are The Caretaker’sSteam pagedescribes it as a blend between “squad building, RTS-with-pause, narrative, and turn-based JRPG combat....

No more cleansing, only filth Good news! Blizzard have fixed anOverwatch 2Kiriko bug that let her teleport while holding the flag in Capture the Flag mode. Bad news! In doing so they seem to have broken the cleanse effect attached to her Swift Step ability, meaning she can no longer purge debuffs. The bug appeared after yesterday’s update and isn’t mentioned inthe patch notes, so yep, it’s a bug rather than a balance change....

Not quite dead Every week I seem to hear about anotherbattle royaleI never knew existed. This week it’sDeathverse: Let It Die, a free-to-play spin-off of Suda51’s free-to-play hack and slasherLet It Die. Alas, I won’t have much time to check this one out. Deathverse: Let It Die is suspending its servers indefinitely on July 18th while the devs work to redevelop the multiplayer brawler. Deathverse: Let It Die only came out last October, but developer Supertrick Gamesadmitthe server’s suspension is partly due to the ongoing technical issues they’ve been facing....

Out of the dungeon for now In a bizarre turn of events, it seems that Hidden Path’s unannounced Dungeons & Dragons game is alive and well, after recent reports it had been cancelled. Earlier this week, Bloombergreportedthat D&D owner Wizards Of The Coast hadcancelled five unannounced projects,naming Otherside Entertainment and Hidden Path as two of the studios affected. In a Twitterpostlast night, Hidden Path emphasised “Our epic D&D project with Wizards is still happening!...

Our personal picks for the year ahead A Space For The Unbound Rachel:Very excited about this Indonesian adventure from Mojiken. I want to pet all the cute cats, and A Space For The Unbound lets me do exactly that. Also the pixel art looksso good, the clouds in particular look so nice, I want to take a nap in them. Liam:Does a game from 2008 need a remake? The jury is still out on that one I guess, but for what it’s worth, I’m gladDead Spaceis making a comeback....

Jackpot! Roguelike deckbuilders are everywhere, nowadays, which is just how I like it. Roguelike deckbuilders that carve out a path far afield ofSlay The Spireare a little rarer, though, so I also like thatLuck Be A Landlordjust left Steam Early Access. It’s about adding symbols to a slot machine, rather than removing monsters from a dungeon. You emerge from each run with sentences less like ‘damn, if only I’d picked more block cards’ and more like ‘damn, if only I hadn’t invested so much in coal and instead focused on feeding milk to my cats’....

“Flawless victory, now do it again!” God bless theTeam Fortress 2voice actors, who continue to enrich the internet with their nonsense. We’ve seen themlark about on a ferry. We’ve seen themconfuse bakery staff, and amuse the guy behind a counterat a convenience store. Now, we get to see them perform an ABBA parody celebrating sandwiches. The Sniper plays banjo, and the Pyro’s contributions are soul warming. Enjoy. Watch on YouTube...

Stick a PIN in it Who among us hasn’t wished to be a cool hacker from the movies, like Hugh Jackman in Swordfish (a classic)? In real life hacking things is apparently quite dangerous and hard, but in video games we can crack the system and mutter “I’m in” under our breath as often as we want. Naturally, there have been some fabulous hacking games on PC over the years, and we’ve collected what we think are the cream of the crop of the best hacking games to play on PC right now....

OPUS: Prism Peak is the “spiritual sibling” to OPUS: Echo Of Starsong You know when someone says a magical combination of words to you and your instant reaction is, “Say no more. I’m in.”? That’s how I felt hearing aboutOPUS: Prism Peakthis morning, the latest game from Taiwanese developer Sigono in their loosely-connected series of jaw-droppingly pretty visual novels. Described as a spiritual sibling to their most recent OPUS game,the brilliant Echo Of Starsong, the exact magic combo of words that made my eyes go all wide and saucer-like was “a cross betweenWhat Remains Of Edith FinchandMakoto Shinkaifilms”, which just - you know what, I’m going to shut up now so you can watch the teaser trailer....
