It’s only been a day, but already Humble Bundle’s Stand with Ukraine bundle, has already generated over £3 million to aid humanitarian efforts following Russia’s violent and illegal invasion of Ukraine.The bundle – which features over 120 items worth over £1800 ($2500) – has been bagged by over 95,000 people, all of whom have paid at least £30, with the average purchase price clocking in at around £34. 100 per cent of the proceeds will go to Razom for Ukraine, International Rescue Committee, International Medical Corps, and Direct Relief to “support vital humanitarian crisis relief efforts for the people of…
It’s no secret that Hidetaka Miyazaki loves poison swamps as much as we love his games. His self-confessed masochistic streak compels him to keep adding them. Even Dark Souls 2, which wasn’t directed by Miyazaki, didn’t give us respite from these sludgy slimepits. If it’s a Soulsborne: Ring Dies Twice game from From Software, it’ll have at least one poison swamp.That got the old brain cogs a-whirring. If all of these games have poison swamps and the big man behind them thinks they’re really important, it’s obvious that we can figure out which one is the objectively best game by…
In the face of a dwindling player base for fantasy MMO New World following its barnstorming launch last September, Amazon Games has shared a “broad overview” of its content release plans for the game’s next three seasons in 2022.As previously announced, March will see the formal arrival of New World’s Heart of Madness update – it was made available on the public test realm earlier this month – bringing the game’s main storyline to a close with a new endgame expedition, Tempest’s Heart, which promises a “final showdown” against Isabella in a corrupted dimension of reality.Read more Source – eurogamer.net…
Activision Blizzard – which continues its attempts to reassert itself following many months of shocking allegations it had fostered a company culture where sexual harassment, assault, and inappropriate behaviour were able to thrive – has announced its previously detailed Overwatch 2 beta will launch on 26th April.Blizzard revealed its intentions to “decouple” Overwatch 2’s PvP and PvE modes and begin a series of multiplayer-focused betas earlier this month, when game director Aaron Keller rather dubiously attempted to spin the developer’s upcoming beta sessions as some sort of generous treat for content-starved Overwatch 1 players rather than the limited testing sessions…
Humble Games has launched its new Stand With Ukraine bundle, which will see 100% of its proceeds donated to support the humanitarian efforts currently taking place in Ukraine following Russia’s devastating invasion of the country.”The violent and unlawful invasion in Ukraine is taking a tragic toll-displacing people, devastating families, and creating an urgent need for food, water, supplies, shelter, and safety,” explains Humble. “To help out how we can, we’ve joined forces with game creators, book publishers, and software makers around the globe for a bundle 100% dedicated to supporting the victims and refugees from Ukraine during this crisis.”Read more…

Norwood Suite dev’s Betrayal At Club Low is a dice-chucking delve into a deadly nightclub
Cosmo D, the developer behind acclaimed first-person jazz-hotel adventure The Norwood Suite, has unveiled Betrayal At Club Low – the latest entry in his deliciously surreal Off-Peak City saga, which comes to Steam this “summer”.While Betrayal At Club Low promises more of the same off-kilter energy that helped make The Norwood Suite and its follow-up Tales from Off-Peak City Vol. 1 so memorable (and don’t just take my word for it), things are a little different this time around.Read more Source – eurogamer.net All content and images belong to their respected owners.

Netflix’s second Resident Evil adaptation – this one a live-action escapade through New Racoon City starring the Wesker kids – will be coming to the streaming service on 14th July.Not to be confused with last year’s four-episode CGI effort Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness, or indeed the non-Netflix-related live-action movie reboot Welcome to Raccoon City, the series known only as Resident Evil splits its narrative across two timelines, straddling either side of a global apocalypse caused by a deadly virus.Read more Source – eurogamer.net All content and images belong to their respected owners.

There’s a new type of gaming mouse on the market: the ultra-light. These lightweight mice use honeycomb designs and other measures to cut mass wherever possible, making for a more manoeuvrable mouse that’s easier to aim. Following the first releases by specialists like Glorious and Finalmouse, many bigger brands have now made ultra-light mice of their own with new sizes, shapes and features. Some of these mice even forgo the holey look, with internal modifications to bring weight down and an intact outer shell. After extensive testing of every ultra-light mouse in FPS games like Valorant and CSGO, we’re ready…
