The Splatoon franchise is headed to Switch 2 with a new game called Splatoon Raiders, Nintendo announced Tuesday. Described as “the first-ever Splatoon spinoff game,” Splatoon Raiders will cast players as a mechanic who explores the mysterious Spirhalite Islands alongside Splatoon 3’s Deep Cut trio: Frye, Shiver, and Big Man. A short trailer for Splatoon Raiders shows the Deep Cut gang on an exploratory mission, and the helicopter they’re traveling...
Lost in Random: The Eternal Die stuck its hooks in me after just a few rooms. Dashing between enemy projectile attacks and then slicing those enemies up, I quickly got into a rhythm with the roguelike’s combat, which reminded me of Hades in all the best ways. It also has enough fresh gameplay ideas to set it apart as a unique and invigorating addition to a crowded genre. The Eternal...

Sandworm-riding isn't part of Dune: Awakening, at launch, anyway. As creative director Joel Bylos told Eurogamer last year, Funcom looked into it but decided the technical cost was too steep and "it needs a purpose." In the movies, sandworms are ridden through the otherwise impassable southern sandstorms and used to attack Arrakeen. You don't do either of those things in Dune: Awakening, at least not yet.So sandworm-riding isn't an official...
The elite of the tech industry are unrivaled in their ability to stand on a stage and earnestly pitch you something you've seen before as stunning, groundbreaking, unprecedented. This is an important skill, because much as history repeats itself on a grand scale, design trends repeat on a cycle of 10 or 20 years or so. Skinny jeans are back, and after a few years dabbling with sharp corners and...
In the days following the Switch 2’s launch, players have discovered a trio of delightful GameCube Easter eggs included in the Switch 2’s Nintendo Classics GameCube catalog, which can only be accessed if you have a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership. The Easter eggs in question all cause the Switch to replicate the GameCube’s original tinkly (and oft–memed) startup animation, along with a pair of alternative startup sequences...
The "endless cat breeding RPG" Mewgenics showed up at the PC Gaming Show yesterday with another bizarre trailer and a new release date: Instead of arriving in 2025 as planned, it's now set to arrive on February 10, 2026. And there's actually a pretty good reason for the delay."Dude, listen. Launching in Nov–Dec is hard," Mewgenics mastermind Edmund McMillen explained on Steam. "We want this game to get the attention...
Dark Souls players spent months trying to figure out if the pendant that's in your inventory when you start the game unlocked something secret. Even though it's literally labeled "useless," people were convinced there had to be more to it. It turned out to be just a joke, but you can't blame anyone for being curious, especially when FromSoftware is known for hiding all kinds of stuff in its games.Now...
Weight classes in Mario Kart World work much like they do in Mario Kart 8, in that they determine how a kart performs. With no kart customization in World, though, a character’s weight class is the sole influencing factor on your kart’s stats. There’s no quick-and-easy way to see who belongs in what category, and since every character can use every kart, it’s easy to miss some of the stat...
