The studio's initial suggested fixes are not particularly helpful, especially on PC, and the best solution right now is really just queueing with a full team of three.In an initial tweet about matchmaking, FromSoft suggested restarting the matchmaking process if it's taking too long⁠—I and the commenters on Twitter...

The "I stayed up way past my bedtime to play this" test is perhaps one of the most persuasive endorsements of a game I can think of. With my 30th birthday leveling both barrels at me and ready to fire, this status is only becoming harder for a game to wring out of me. I'm not a multiplayer guy either, so the co-op centric nature of Elden Ring Nightreign was...

Short of The Elder Scrolls 6 actually coming out, there's never been a better time to be an Elder Scrolls fan. Oblivion Remastered is rekindling the love for Bethesda's most lovably janky Elder Scrolls game, while mod projects like Tamriel Rebuilt and Skyblivion are either releasing massive new updates or are rapidly approaching completion.

I've always believed Planet Coaster 2 to be a better game than it's typically given credit for. But one issue I have with the sequel, and indeed, the series in general is that your park visitors are a bit dull.They're gloriously animated, I should stress, with tons of fun incidental detail in how they move and interact with the world. But behaviourally they're all tediously genial, consumerist chuds who wander...

The pitch is you're trapped aboard a derelict generation ship that...

Have you played The Swapper? If not, you should swap whatever you're doing right now for playing The Swapper. Originally released back in 2013, it's a sci-fi puzzler that hinges on your ability to create clones of yourself, which then mimic your every movement. From this simple concept, The Swapper produces some delightfully brain-tangling puzzles, and a story that probes the question of personal identity with discomforting acuity. Oh, and...

FromSoftware is apparently reserving the right to add an official two-player mode to Elden Ring Nightreign⁠—right now you can only play solo or in a trio. But Yui, the modder behind the Seamless Co-op series of Souls multiplayer hacks, has already done it again with Elden Ring Nightreign a mere day after launch.PCG senior editor Wes Fenlon and I hopped in for a round, and it works exactly like you...

Summer Game Fest season is almost upon us, and you know what that means. That's right, it's time for Ubisoft to once again disappoint Splinter Cell fans by reminding us that it's been almost four years since the remake was announced."Splinter Cell fans are getting excited about a possible update on the remake in June," I wrote in April—except that was April 2024, not 2025, and June 2024 ultimately brought...
