It’s been a month since Valve started shipping its sought-after handheld system, Steam Deck, and to celebrate, the company wants you to know exactly how far the system – and its games – have come, including updates on its Deck Verified program and ongoing efforts with Microsoft to bring Xbox Cloud Gaming to the mobile platform, too. “We started shipping Steam Deck just one month ago, and it’s been a huge thrill seeing it out in the wild in players’ hands,” Valve explained in a new blog. An accompanying video can be viewed below, too: “One of our favourite things…
Content creator Ali-A has partnered with YouTube to create uTure, a “global talent show to find the next big gaming content creator”.

Criterion’s new Need for Speed game, which was delayed at the start of last year while the studio assisted the development of Battlefield 2042, will reportedly launch this November, skipping previous game consoles to instead focus on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. EA confirmed a new Criterion-developed Need for Speed game was in the works at the tail-end of 2020, slapping it with a vague release window of somewhere between April 2021 and the end of March this year. However, that launch was later delayed to EA’s fiscal year 2023, with the publisher announcing it had made the decision…
Last year, Eidos Montreal released Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy – its own, original take on Marvel’s oddball spacefaring family – to largely positive reviews which praised its single-player focus, character work and humour. But it remained unclear how well the game had performed commercially, and in February, publisher Square Enix said the title had “undershot expectations”.Ahead of the BAFTA video game awards last night, I sat down with members of the Guardians of the Galaxy team to discuss the game’s emotional storytelling, where the series could go next – and some unexpected tussles with racoons. But first, the issue…
Doom is the ultimate game. It runs on pregnancy tests, it runs in cars, and now it runs on RTX – with hardware-accelerated ray tracing, of course. Sultim Tsyrendashiev, creator of the Serious Sam path tracing mod delivered this new RT-infused rendition of Doom on April 1st this year, but make no mistake, this is no joke. It’s a visual revamp of the original game, creating a clever path-traced RT aesthetic for a title that essentially has no real-time lighting model as we’d understand it in a modern game. The results are excellent overall and the processes required to make…
Ms. Pac-Man has been transformed into Pac-Mom in Bandai Namco’s Arcade Archives: Pac-Land game, likely due to an ongoing dispute over rights. Ms. Pac-Man is known for her red bow and boots, but in this new game Pac-Mom has taken over – sporting pink stilettos, hat and gloves. Huh?! Twitter user Nick C spotted the change and shared it online. Looks like Baby Pac has also been changed. Read more Source – eurogamer.net All content and images belong to their respected owners.

Halo Infinite’s second season, Lone Wolves, has been teased via a new trailer. The new season, set to arrive on 3rd May, will contain “new maps, modes, themed limited-time events, and an all-new Battle Pass,” the video’s description states. Last weekend, 343 community director Brian Jarrard said the studio understood some fans were “simply out of patience” with the game’s various frustrations, and that his team was “certainly not happy to be unable to meet player and community expectations”. However, some of these should be addressed as part of the new season, he added. Read more Source – eurogamer.net All…
Just in time for Easter, Square Enix is launching a Hatching-tide event in its MMORPG, but a certain emote is causing debate. As part of the event, various items and minions will be available to collect, as well as an emote for eating an egg. A picture of the emote shows a cute little Lalafell eating an egg, but the egg still has half the shell on. Which begs the question: how are you meant to eat a boiled egg?
