It's great that so many PlayStation games have come to PC in the last few years, letting me stack a heap of extra big-budget videogame junk food on my pile of shame. Welcome to the backlog, Horizon Zero Dawn. These games haven't always set the Steam top sellers list on fire, however, sometimes thanks to a marketing budget you'd have to squint to see. How many people even knew Marvel's...

Back in April, Valve announced the Steam store would start highlighting accessibility features on games' store pages. And now, it has. Not only can you see them in the sidebar beneath the controller support section for selected games, you can also search the store by individual accessibility features."This update comes after gathering valuable feedback from developers as well as players with disabilities," Valve says in its blog post announcing the...
Dune: Awakening has a comprehensive base-building policy that goes something like this:Build a base wherever you want.That's pretty much the entire policy.There are restrictions, of course: build too far out on the sand and a sandworm will show up and eat a hunk of your base—with you in it, if you're not careful. And you can't build within a certain radius of an established location like a tradepost or faction...
In typical FromSoftware fashion, it teased an Elden Ring Nightreign update coming this month that will add "enhanced" boss fights with zero clues as to what that actually means. Well, it turns out, those clues have been sitting in the game files since it came out, and there's already a mod that will let you fight each boss in what seems to be those "enhanced" versions.The first thing that tipped...
The Eighth Trial of Aql isn't like the seven other Dune: Awakening story quests that came before it. You can't even get inside the trial without passing a test on Dune lore, and once you're in the trial you'll have to beat several more puzzles to complete it.You need to complete these trials in order, so before using this guide, make sure you've already found Dune: Awakening locations for all...
I spent three days at Summer Game Fest blasting my eyes with an endless stream of videogames, and the one I'm still thinking about is Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Tragically, I didn't play it: Capcom shuffled press into a room to watch theater demos for both Onimusha and Resident Evil Requiem, the latter of which was pre-recorded, but Onimusha was played live.That's an important distinction, because it would've been...
Konami has shown off a new take on Metal Gear multiplayer, with Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater boasting an online mode, Fox Hunt. This follows a recent tease that many, myself included, thought indicated a return of the beloved Metal Gear Online.Well, no dice, but Fox Hunt actually looks pretty cool and, more than anything else, reminds me of rival stealther Splinter Cell's similarly cherished Spies vs Mercs multiplayer....
Code Vein 2 was revealed this weekend at Summer Game Fest, and it's building quite a bit on the action RPG from 2019. There's time travel and a whole arsenal of abilities that can wreak havoc on your foes. Yet I can't stop thinking about one thing: its motorcycle.Taking place in two eras, Code Vein 2 follows two characters on a quest to save the world from ruin. In the...
I'll never forget the first time my friends and I played Phasmophobia. It was like nothing I'd ever played before, absolutely hilarious, and surprisingly terrifying—it still is. So it's rather funny to me that not only does Phasmo's creator not really play horror games but he didn't intend to make one either."I failed to make a co-op puzzle game," director and lead developer Daniel Knight told my colleague Andrea Shearon...
