Dracula is one of the most iconic villains of all time, leading writers and filmmakers to constantly search for new ways to portray him, from focusing on his underling, to putting him on a boat to having him fight the X-Men. The latest version, starring Titus Welliver of Bosch as Dracula’s nemesis Abraham Van Helsing, is changing things up by keeping the Count in the shadows while building up family...
While on the ground at Summer Game Fest 2025, I got to play a little bit of Grounded 2 and then had a quick chat afterwards with game director Chris Parker. In the brief time I had with the game, which is a sequel that continues the survival game story of kids shrunk down to itty-bitty size, I got to fight off some creepy little multi-legged mites with a spear...

A week after the release of Nintendo’s bubbly racer on Switch 2, there’s plenty of footage showcasing new tech, amazing shortcuts, and impressive plays. But part of what makes Mario Kart such a memorable franchise is the chaos and randomness, which means players are also sharing clips of themselves getting owned. Turns out, a blue shell can be the least of your worries in Mario Kart World. We’ve got the...
Switch 2 backwards compatibility is pretty comprehensive across console generations, but there are still some original Switch games that don’t work on Switch 2. Although Switch 2 arrived June 5 with the new Mario Kart World, some ports, and the possibility of upgrading big games (like Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom) to their respective Switch 2 versions, the launch lineup is relatively slight. As a result,...
Grounded 2 was announced at the Xbox Games Showcase over the weekend, and it's releasing into early access next month—July 29, to be specific. Early access can be a real boon for games, as it enables developers to iterate with (hopefully) large-scale feedback toward a complete, as-good-as-it-can-be final release, but there are risks involved too, especially when you're following up on a big hit."When you're a sequel to a game...
I've been spending my free time sifting through all the new demos showcased in this month's Steam Next Fest. And while there's a whole host of incredible multiplayer games that are right up my alley I've landed on Sizzle and Stack, an infuriating, stress-inducing cooking card game.It all starts slowly. At first there are just a couple of dishes for you to learn and cook, mostly revolving around all the...
The Divine Comedy is one of the classics of world literature, and still taught in Italian schools to this day. This epic poem was finished in 1321, shortly before author Dante Alighieri's death, and essentially follows his quest to right the world's wrongs and put a lot of people he didn't like in hell. Virgil mouths off a bit too, though once he's replaced in Purgatorio it all gets much...
Video game launches are typically fairly rote endeavors. Outlets publish reviews when an embargo lifts, usually shortly before a game launches, and the public will use those reviews to inform its purchasing decisions. Occasionally, you’ll have a controversial launch, like how CD Projekt Red lost all its goodwill with the bug-filled mess of a launch that was Cyberpunk 2077 back in 2020. The launch of Mindseye, however, isn’t controversial, or...
