Volition’s newly released roadmap marks the first time the studio has discussed additional content for the reboot since last October when, following a particularly bug-riddled launch, it announced it would initially be prioritising “improvements over new features”. Now though, having released a number of significant patches to address Saints Row’s most pressing issues in the months since its launch last August, Volition is ready to talk new stuff, starting with a free…
Ubisoft has U-turned on its earlier decision to attend this year’s E3 and will now hold its own separate event on 12th June. The publisher initially announced its intention to attend E3’s 2023 live show – which is being organised by Eurogamer parent company ReedPop for the first time this year – back in February, insisting it would bring a “strong line-up” of titles to the Los Angeles event. At the time, Ubisoft was the only major publisher to have publicly committed to E3 2023 – which resurrects the in-person component last seen in 2019, prior to COVID – amid…

The first level of Terra Nil feels like perfection. What you give to the land and what you take from it renew each other, and so tasked with restoring a barren quarry to a thriving ecosystem, you start small. Far from the city builder convention of widely mapping out your infrastructure, you attend to small patches of land – one wind turbine and a handful of toxin scrubbers to clean the earth at a time, paid for by the irrigators you place to restore the grass on top of it.
