The new British Automotive Festival Series has begun in Forza Horizon 6, and that means some new regular challenges. This week's Ito Treasure Hunt has you searching for a chest in a pretty hard-to-locate field, with few landmarks to gauge its location except a house in the background and a mountain.

I am nothing if not returning to this well over and over again.It's your classic knockout format: Two effects...

Papers, Please: Your decisions as a shopkeeper have an effect. If you spot someone on the wanted list coming in to your store, you can report them to security for a reward—but keep in mind they may be members of the resistance fighting against the cruel dystopia.Dredd: With customers coming in from the poverty-stricken lower levels and the wealthier upper levels, it feels like I'm working a shop in one...

SFO Grimhammer 3, a popular total overhaul mod, isn't currently compatible with Total War: Warhammer 3 version 9.0, but its creators are working hard to get it there.It must be galling then to see...
