With the Game Awards well and truly over and done with for another year, we can now look forward to Christmas and the New Year, a period during which news generally quiets down. That’s not to say nothing’s happening, of course; we’ve got plenty to highlight as part of our rundown. It just means that big game companies generally won’t have massive announcements to make during this time. Still, that also means no earth-shattering revelations and no nasty surprises, so grab a cup of hot cocoa (or your drink of choice) and join us as we take a look at…

This week saw the airing of the annual Game Awards ceremony, and it was a doozy of a show this year, with plenty of new announcements and surprises to sink our teeth into. Whether it’s revivals of classic Capcom franchises, PC ports of critically-acclaimed PlayStation games, or unexpected followups to top-selling action RPGs you’re after, this year’s Game Awards had plenty for you. Other things have been happening this week, of course, but the Game Awards have dominated the discourse, so without further ado, let’s take a look at what’s been going on in the gaming world! Suicide Squad: Kill…

We’re fast approaching the week of the Game Awards, which is traditionally when many big companies and studios announce what’s next in their pipeline, and that means a lot of studios are likely holding onto their big news for this occasion. As such, the week or so before the Game Awards airs can tend to be a little quieter in the world of news, but as ever, we’ve still got lots of stuff to recap from this past week, so without further ado, let’s once again dive into the week in gaming news! Call of Duty is getting a Squid…

Another week has come to an end, and if you’re a regular reader, you’ll know what that means: it’s once again time to take a look at the events of the past week in the gaming industry. We’re in the midst of what many might consider to be a transitional period for the world of gaming; many companies are undergoing layoffs, games are being cancelled, and studios may be rethinking their relationship to standard AAA development. While a sea change may be underway, there are still plenty of smaller, more granular events to look back on, so let’s recap the…

The countdown to Christmas has well and truly begun, and what better way to celebrate the holiday – whether you celebrate Christmas or a different occasion – than with some great games? Believe it or not, December is often a slightly quieter month for games; although it’s the month in which Christmas falls, companies usually want to drum up a little more interest in their titles ahead of time rather than releasing close to the holiday. That doesn’t mean there aren’t any great games to play in December, though, so without further ado, let’s take a look at all the…

It’s fair to say that mid-to-late November feels very much like the lead-up to The Game Awards, a major ceremony that takes place in December each year. At The Game Awards, not only are the most exceptional games of their respective year recognised and lauded, but new game announcements are made as well, making it one of the most pivotal gaming news events on the calendar. Since we’re currently sitting in the lead-up to The Game Awards, we shouldn’t expect too much incendiary news before early December, but here’s our rundown of what’s been happening this week in the industry…

It’s time once again to step into the time machine we conveniently keep around here to take another look at the gaming news that’s happened in the week that’s just gone by. As we’ve said before, the weeks prior to December’s Game Awards are often fairly quiet, but that doesn’t mean nothing’s happening; it just means some of the big players are staying fairly low-key for now. Still, we’ve got lots to take a look at, so let’s get started. Here are the highlights of the past week in gaming news terms! Dragon’s Dogma 2’s director opens a new studio…

If you’re based in the US, you’ve probably already begun your countdown to Thanksgiving, which falls on the fourth Thursday of November each year. You may or may not also be processing some feelings about this year’s US election, but either way, we welcome you to join us as we take another look at what’s been happening in the world of gaming this week. As ever, there’s plenty to chew on and dissect, so whether you’re trying to avoid the non-gaming news or not, let’s take a look at the biggest news in the gaming industry over the past seven…

With Halloween well and truly behind us, we now look ahead to Christmas, and, more importantly (from the gaming calendar’s perspective, at least), to the Game Awards. Generally speaking, if companies have big announcements to make, those announcements will be made at big events; think Gamescom, the Summer Game Fest shows, and the Game Awards, among others. As such, you might expect things to start slowing down a little now, but that doesn’t mean nothing’s been happening; far from it, in fact. Here’s our latest roundup of the week in gaming news! Bungie shares its first major Marathon update Bungie’s…

In only the last four years, betting on sports has made its way from the margins of society into the mainstream. The long-standing anti-gambling stigma that has been rapidly eroding in American popular culture has resulted in the growth of a massive legal sports betting sector that is now worth billions of dollars. Many states have legalized sports betting, so millions of sports enthusiasts will be looking to gamble for the first time. The number of mobile sportsbook apps and physical sportsbook lounges in the United States is steadily rising. Americans looking for safe, authorized sports betting choices should be…

Traditionally speaking, we’re in the middle of the period when the biggest games are released, and November 2024 has more than its fair share of major games for you to check out. It’s not just the usual triple-A fare, though; there are lots of smaller indie games for you to take a look at as well, in addition to some rather interesting mid-budget titles that might be worth your time. Here are the best games you can play on any platform in November 2024! Metal Slug Tactics (PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch – November 5th) The first strategy RPG in…

Halloween is just a few exciting days away, and after that, the long march to Christmas begins, so there’s plenty to look forward to in the regular calendar. What about the world of gaming news, though? Well, this week has been a relatively quiet one; there haven’t been too many earth-shattering revelations in the gaming world, but that doesn’t mean there hasn’t been any news at all. Let’s take a look back at the week in gaming news and see what’s been going on with some of the biggest (and smaller) companies in the industry. Spider-Man 2 isn’t getting any…

The string “+”:8080″ +”:3128″ +”:3128″ +”:80″” is a search query used to find proxy servers. Proxy servers act as intermediaries between your device and the internet. They can hide your IP address, bypass restrictions, and improve security. These numbers represent common ports used by proxy servers. Port 8080 is often used for HTTP proxies, while 3128 is common for Squid proxies. Port 80 is the standard port for HTTP traffic. By searching for these port numbers, you can find lists of available proxy servers. Proxy servers have many uses. They can help protect privacy, access geo-restricted content, and speed up web…

If you frequently play games on modern systems, then you’ll likely know just how easy it is to fill up your console’s storage, making it impossible to install new games until you clear out some of the games you might still need. External storage solutions are becoming more and more common among gamers and the general public alike, but they’re not all created equal, and many of them just aren’t up to snuff. That’s where a device like iStorage’s diskAshur Pro 3 comes in. Equipped with state-of-the-art security features to ensure that you don’t lose any of your all-important data,…

Another week has gone by, and as usual, there’s plenty to be talking about in the gaming space, both good and bad. Xbox held a major presentation at which several new games and release dates were announced this week, and much more has been going on besides, so you won’t be short of talking points. Once again, without further ado, let us take up our time-travelling magnifying glass and take a look once more at what’s been going on in the world of gaming news this week. Destiny is getting a mobile spinoff It seems like every game and its…

It’s time once again to step back into our very specific time machine, which only allows us to travel a week back into the past, and take a look at the week’s gaming news. You might ask why we’re not using our time machine for more morally defensible ends, and I would reply that unfortunately, the machine doesn’t allow us to interfere, only to observe. With that absurd intro out of the way, let’s take a look at what’s been happening this week when it comes to the gaming industry! Alien: Isolation is getting a sequel This week, we learned…

Canceling Xbox Game Pass might seem like a tedious task, but it’s simpler than one might think. Whether looking for a break from gaming or trying to manage monthly expenses, understanding the process can make it straightforward. To cancel Xbox Game Pass, log in to your Microsoft account, navigate to the services and subscriptions section, and choose the option to cancel your subscription. It’s essential to know that the Xbox Game Pass offers several subscription models, which may affect the cancellation steps slightly. For those unfamiliar with navigating subscriptions, this can seem overwhelming. Exploring these differences helps to ensure a smooth…

Major gaming event season is now officially over, and the temperatures are really starting to draw in, so you know what that means: it’s autumn at last. Of course, just because there aren’t any big shows to look forward to doesn’t mean that there’s nothing happening in the world of gaming. Far from it, in fact; there’s plenty going on to pore over if you’re a news fanatic. Without further ado, then, let’s have a look at what’s been happening this week in the gaming world! Football Manager 25 gets a release date Sega and Sports Interactive’s long-awaited management sim…

Spooky season is well and truly getting underway now, and we’re about to hit the peak month for spooky shenanigans, which means you’d expect a ton of horror games to be imminent. Well, there may be one or two creepy experiences to enjoy while you’re wrapped up in a blanket with some hot chocolate, but October is also the month when a lot of major triple-A releases start sneaking out. There’s plenty to enjoy this October, so let’s take a look at the best games you’ll be able to check out this month! Silent Hill 2 (PC, PlayStation 5 -…

It’s been another eventful week for the gaming world, although since so much is going on inside the industry on a daily basis, that’s almost unnecessary to say. Still, this week we’ve seen the release of a brand new Nintendo tentpole game, as well as delays, new sequel announcements, and more besides. Pull up a chair and join us as we take another expedition through a week of gaming news. Hopefully, it won’t all be as glum as the real news has been over the past few weeks.

In the grand tradition of starting these roundups by talking about the weather, it’s been a rather wet and miserable end to the week, especially after a brief Indian summer. Thankfully, we’re here with our weekly gaming news summary, so you can grab a hot drink and a blanket and read through what’s been happening in the gaming world for the last seven days or so.

Autumn (or fall if you’re in the US) isn’t quite in full swing yet, but the leaves are starting to fall from the trees and the temperatures are starting to drop, so it’s almost here. If you’re a full-blooded advocate of spooky season, you’ll no doubt be delighted with the changing of the seasons, but if you prefer things to be warmer, you’re likely in a bit of a bad mood nowadays. Well, why not let us cheer you up by recapping what’s been happening in the gaming world for the last week or so? Let’s get started! Bungie switches…

It’s finally time to say goodbye to the many gaming presentations and showcases of summer and look ahead to autumn and winter, when the biggest releases traditionally land. This period of the gaming calendar can sometimes feel a little like a sort of “no man’s land” when nothing major is occurring, but thankfully, we’ve had plenty to keep us diverted and distracted this week. Let’s take a look at what’s been happening over the last seven days or so when it comes to gaming news! Several Rocksteady staff have apparently been laid off The layoffs that have swept the gaming…

As kids and parents alike eye a return to school (or their first day!), it’s time for us to take another look at the world of gaming news, and this week’s been an eventful one indeed. Nintendo held two back-to-back presentations, reports appeared alleging various very interesting things, and the gaming world was generally alight with goings-on. Without further ado, then, let us take a trip back in time (albeit a very recent trip) and see what’s been happening in the gaming news world at the advent of September 2024! Crash Bandicoot 5 was reportedly cancelled for live-service games Our…

As the Gamescom dust settles and the gaming world returns to normal (until the major AAA releases of the autumn, anyway), September is often a month to reflect and catch up on the backlog. That’s certainly not the case for this year, though, because there’s an absolute landslide of great games heading your way in September 2024. You’ll be spoilt for choice if you’re looking for something to play! Without further ado, let’s take a look at some of the best games coming in September 2024 across all of the major current platforms. The Casting of Frank Stone (PC, PlayStation…

August is, generally speaking, the final month during which you can expect hot weather to grace the UK. From September onwards, things start to cool down a little, autumn kicks in, and the gaming release schedule ramps up as well, bringing major AAA releases and indie darlings to tide us over during the cold and cruel winter. That’s not to say there’s nothing to play in August, of course; if you’re the kind of person who prefers to spend their summer indoors playing video games (as we are), then you’re well-served by this month’s release schedule. Let’s take a look…

Though the UK has escaped the hottest weather in the world, this summer has been another stop-start season of sunshine, rain, and surprisingly cool respites, so it’s hard to imagine anyone who hasn’t gotten at least a little of what they want this year. As we move closer to late August’s Gamescom extravaganza, gaming news often dries up, but there’s been plenty to keep eagle-eyed news enthusiasts occupied this year as well. Here’s our rundown of what’s been happening this week in the world of gaming news! Valve could be working on a new Half-Life game Murmurs emerged this week…
