The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask is a game that has stuck with me for a long time. I’ve never entirely known why. When I imagine playing Majora’s Mask, I don’t sense the buttons of the controller beneath my fingers or picture the light moving across the screen. I’m enveloped in an atmosphere – a feeling of some kind. As is the case with the game’s predecessor, Ocarina of Time, I think this is partially due to the game’s wonderful sound design.Majora’s Mask picks up the story of Link after the events of Ocarina of Time. Link is ambushed wandering…

Another day, another Steam concurrent user record broken. This time, it comes just days after Steam hit 30m concurrent players and sees Valve’s PC gaming client clock up a giant 30,049,264 simultaneous players. That said, whilst that figure comes from SteamDB, Steam itself states the all-time peak is a more modest 30,044,046. In either case, though, it’s proof that PC gaming remains on the rise, even if the majority of those players were idling at the time (SteamDB estimates “just” 8.9 million were actively in-game at the time the record was set). Steam numbers have been rising since the pandemic…

The first of a three-part series, “Magic Parkour” focuses on protagonist Frey Holland and – predictably enough – her “magic-enhanced parkour” and traversal skills.

You can check it out below: The next video – slated to drop on 3rd November – will focus more on Forspoken’s combat “and dive into the fundamentals of Frey’s magical combat skills” by sharing more about the…

Xbox and PC players have found their ability to disable crossplay in Modern Warfare 2 has disappeared. The crossplay toggle allows players to choose whether they matchmake with players from other platforms. Console players tend to disable crossplay to avoid matching against PC players using keyboard and mouse or may be hacking. On the flip side, PC players may wish to avoid console players who have aim assist. Read more Source – eurogamer.net All content and images belong to their respected owners.

Uncharted and The Last of Us developer Naughty Dog is working with a number of other PlayStation Studios teams to develop a mysterious new project in a “beloved franchise”. That’s according to a newly spotted Sony job listing (thanks VGC) seeking a game design intern to work at a “new PlayStation studio based in San Diego… co-developing an exciting new project with Naughty Dog in a beloved franchise.” There’s no additional information about the new studio, but it seems highly likely it’s the same San-Diego-based “new internal game develop team” Sony referenced in a different job listing earlier this week.…

Warframe’s ambitious The Duviri Paradox expansion has been delayed into 2023 – but there’re still a couple of treats heading to the free-to-play sci-fi shooter before the end of the year, including a mini prequel going by the name of Lua’s Prey. The Duviri Paradox is Warframe’s latest open-world expansion – following the likes of Plains of Eidolon and Heart of Deimos – and plunges players into the extremely weird world of Duviri, a fantasy-western-themed kingdom existing inside the mind of new big bad Dominus Thrax. More striking, though – and there’s a lot of eye-catching stuff, from its stark…

Ambition is a word you’ll hear often in the world of video games, implying a lofty goal designed to exceed expectations – an attempt to reach for the moon, so to speak, and, in the case of Bayonetta 3, it’s certainly an apt descriptor. However, projects with lofty ambitions often fall short and that too is true of PlatinumGames’ latest. Let me make this clear – Bayonetta 3 is a fantastic action game and one that should satisfy fans of the series. Its bombastic set pieces, varied stage design and wildly out of control storytelling all work in tandem to…
