Crispy critters, Atomic Heart is officially a franchise. Formally announced at Summer Game Fest 2025 (alongside the tie-in MMO The Cube), Atomic Heart 2 portrays a new and improved Facility 3826 — a Soviet-Silicon Valley surrounded by flying cities and inhabited by scientists who, for some reason, are… sending whales to the moon?

Project Hail Mary, an adaptation of the science fiction novel of the same name from The Martian writer Andy Weir, is set to be released on March 20, 2026, but Amazon MGM Studios has already shared a full trailer for the film. Rather than mostly focusing on Matt Damon growing potatoes on Mars, the movie from 21 Jump Street directors and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse writers Phil Lord and Christopher...
It’s been more than a year since Marvel Animation revived X-Men: The Animated Series in all of its splashy operatic 2D glory. X-Men ’97 was a triumph, not just in the Marvel canon but in an entire year of TV. As the producers and artists behind the series explain in the new book X-Men ’97: The Art and Making of the Animated Series, translating the ’90s Fox show for new...

I am ashamed to admit that, while I bought Baldur’s Gate 3 immediately at the launch of its early access period in October 2020, it took me just short of five years to finish my first playthrough of the game. A combination of insufficient hardware and different life priorities got in the way, but my attention and interest in the game never waned. Baldur’s Gate 2 is probably the most...
The latest Diablo 4 season'll be introducing Horadric Spellcrafting—a seasonal power that lets players kitbash their own spells together which, as you might imagine, is being tested on the public test realms (PTR). Anyone who's played Oblivion before will be able to tell you that custom spell creation systems are notoriously hard to balance, and that truth has borne out here to spectacular effect.As announced in a developer diary (thanks,...
Benjamin Franklin once remarked—of his time starring in Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed 3—that three may keep a secret if two of them are dead. He was right, because the almost-certainly-upcoming remake of Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is probably the worst-kept secret in videogames right now. People just cannot button their yaps about it.Earlier this month, we wrote about a loose-lipped merch maker who chatted away about "something" happening with AC4...
This year we've seen a massive crackdown on AI tech shipments into China with mounting fears they might be powering the country's military. It's gotten to the point that high-end cards are being geotracked while the US continues to pressure ports like Malaysia to keep these rigs out of China's hands.Now, the latest development in a Singaporean case around the United States' campaign to cease Nvidia shipments to China has...
Great moments in PC gaming are bite-sized celebrations of some of our favorite gaming memories.When I say I like turn-based combat in any RPG that gives you a whole party to manage—and can I just mention how glad I am the collective noun for a group of adventurers is "party" and not something boring like "fellowship" or whatever—sometimes people think I mean the kind of combat you get in games...
Sometimes a law comes into conversation that seems so simple and obvious you might have assumed it already existed. That's how I felt when reading The Guardian talk about Denmark's new strategy to help tackle AI imitations such as deepfakes.Rather than go after the AI creators in this case, Denmark is making what feels like a very prudent decision. It's changing copyright law, so that everyone simply owns their own...
