While undeniably a classic first-person RPG, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind never quite lived up to its name. Sure, you technically were in Morrowind, but the game limited you to the volcanic island of Vvardenfell, with the mainland frequently spoken of, but teasingly just out of reach.Enter the Tamriel Rebuilt project, a colossal (and frequently covered) mega-mod decades in development, aiming to expand the game's playable area to encompass the...

Freshly written and ready to go, today's clue might be just the thing you need to win Saturday's Wordle. Bring it out at the start to help get your game off to the best start possible, or keep it back for later, just in case good ideas and green letters seem to be in short supply. However you do, the May 3 (1414) answer is on standby just in case...

The big news of the day is, without question, the Grand Theft Auto 6 delay from fall 2025 to May 26, 2026. Despite the reassuring words of Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick, who said the company is still going to make a great many truckloads of money this year, just about everybody was unhappy to hear the news: Gamers, analysts, Take-Two shareholders, and PC Gamer senior editor Rich Stanton are all...

Mudrunner in the style of Disco Elysium is maybe not the most obvious videogame mashup imaginable, but that's pretty much what seems to be going on with Zarya, an upcoming "narrative simulator" about a guy named Vasily who's just trying to earn a living and do the occasional solid for his friends in a deeply rural post-Soviet backwater.Zarya—not to be confused with the Overwatch character of the same name—has been...

In April, I had a chance to ask lead Diablo 4 developers how tough it is for their dev teams to continue coming up with ominous names for gameplay activities when they've spent 30 years exhausting every thesaurus in the demonic lexicon. Their answer: Pretty tough.Last week, PC Gamer spoke to the lead artists in the Diablo franchise, and we took the opportunity to pitch a similar question. After designing...

For all the trailers and articles dedicated to it, unless you got in on the 'network test' open beta event back in January, it can be surprisingly hard to pin down exactly what Elden Ring's upcoming co-op spinoff Nightreign actually is. A glorified boss rush? Some weird Fortnite-esque live-service Forever Game? Or is it an official replacement for Elden Ring's seamless co-op mod? None of the above, really, and the...

Following its major courtroom victory over Apple earlier this week, Epic Games has announced upcoming changes to the Epic Games Store aimed at enticing more developers to use it, and putting a little bit of a thumb in Apple's eye in the process.The first change is a reduction in the amount of money Epic takes from developers on its storefront. Epic currently takes 12% of revenues from sales on the...

Today brought the bombshell news that Rockstar has delayed Grand Theft Auto 6 until May 2026, a pushback of approximately half a year on perhaps the most anticipated game the industry has ever seen. Some fans were inconsolable, Take-Two's shareholders needed the smelling salts, and my immediate reaction was, simply, god we won't be playing this thing on PC until 2027 at the earliest.Before the delay was announced, Take-Two had...

No Rest for the Wicked has had a bumpy ride through early access so far. While I thought the initial release was an impressive overhead blend of Diablo-ish action RPG systems and Souls-like tropes, it was held back by performance issues and limited scope, and only saw one major update after release (the Crucible patch) before developer Moon Studios fell largely silent.I'm chalking most of that quiet spell up to...

Nvidia and AI firm Anthropic are currently embroiled in a back-and-forth around claims the former's chips are being smuggled into China, and the concerns that smuggling raises. Where Anthropic cites a systemic problem, Nvidia argues Anthropic is telling "tall tales".In a recent blog post, Anthropic warned of the 'major threat' that is chip smuggling. It claims China has "established sophisticated smuggling operations, with documented cases involving hundreds of millions of...
