I was excited when the Painkiller reboot was formally revealed back in March, but also apprehensive. Anshar Studios' revival of People Can Fly's 2004 shooter looks exactly how I imagined a modern take on the game would. But it also has a co-operative emphasis, and I'm uncertain how this will mix with the series' brutal simplicity.To be fair, the reveal trailer only provided a brief snapshot of the game. Now...
The “digital board game” has long been an intriguing proposition. Tabletop has always had an influence on its digital cousin, but the reverse has happened just as often. Sunderfolk is the latest evolution in that effort. It’s a video game meant to evoke the feeling of an evolving tabletop role-playing campaign, melding the flexibility of a digital space with the presentation and thought processes of an in-person game night. And...
On Friday, Future Boy Conan finally comes to streaming on Retrocrush. Anime enthusiasts will recognize the series for being Hayao Miyazaki’s directorial debut, premiering one year before his first theatrical film, Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro, and several more years before he founded Studio Ghibli with Toshio Suzuki and Isao Takahata. The 26-episode anime was released on Blu-ray in the U.S. in 2021, but this marks the first time...
Path of Exile 2's recent 0.2.0 update did not go down well with players. The update unleashed nerf-a-geddon unto numerous classes and abilities, while also making monsters tougher by fattening their health bars. The purported aim of the update was to make the later game more challenging. But the effect, at least according to players, was that it made the game feel way too slow, denying them that sense of...
Here at PC Gamer we'd basically given up all hope of ever seeing new Western Digital SSD's. After waiting patiently for what felt like an age to witness the birth of the brand's Gen 5 Black SSDs we were hit by the news that SanDisk was taking over the reins earlier this year. This wasn't exactly bad news, as it was still likely SanDisk would put out a killer drive,...
It's no secret that thanks to capitalism things tend to look a bit boring. Products, especially in the tech space, are generally produced en masse to eek out the most profit. With half the stuff coming from the same few factories, peripherals can wind up looking mighty homogenous. Once again thanks to capitalism, tie-ins with fandom are often one of the few reprieves from this bland landscape. One of the...
If you want to hear PC gamers get really particular, ask them about what switches they prefer in their keyboards. Some will go all in on clacky actuation punchers while others may prefer a lighter, softer approach. Those little pieces of engineering that sit between our fingers and the gaming world can make all the difference in dictating how we experience our fictional on screen universes. One of the best...

The past decade-plus has seen a lot of familiar names tapped to helm Star Wars movies which have subsequently disappeared into vaporware. Those familiar names have ranged from The Last Jedi and Knives Out writer-director Rian Johnson to Thor: Ragnarok director Taika Waititi to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige to The Lego Movie’s Phil Lord and Christopher Miller to Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. So it’s...
