Rare’s long-in-development game Everwild is no more, according to a report from Video Games Chronicle, citing sources at the studio. The enigmatic open-world adventure has been canceled, nearly six years after it was first revealed and after a decade of some form of development on Everwild. News of Everwild’s cancellation arrives amid more layoffs at Microsoft; the company is reportedly slashing nearly 9,000 jobs as part of new cuts at...
When you say something puts you to sleep, it’s usually A) not true and B) not very nice. Bandai Namco’s Tamagotchi Plaza literally put me to sleep, and it was the best thing that’s happened to me in almost two weeks. For a few weeks at the start of every summer and winter, without fail, I go through a period where I can’t fall asleep — or, if I do,...
Raising your Mecha Break rank is going to be a challenge, but that's not unusual for a PvP-focused game like this. Still, if you want to stand at the pinnacle of mech-based competitive play (in this game at least), you'll have to grind your way up a lot of ranks in order to reach the top.One way of ensuring some success is choosing one of the best Strikers to take...
What is a “next generation” video game? There’s probably never been a definitive answer to this question, but contenders for moments that have pushed the medium forward in a significant way have historically been easy to identify. The jump from pixels to polygons. Solitary experiences versus massively multiplayer games. Open-world games with complex simulations. Split-second loading. Now, in 2025, some are positing Hideo Kojima’s new delivery simulator Death Stranding 2:...
If you've spent the better part of $1,000 on a high-end VR headset and perhaps the same again on a graphics card, you'd be pretty frustrated to find it didn't work properly on your Linux gaming rig.Imagine how you'd feel if the problems continued for more than a year. That's been the exact situation for some Bigscreen Beyond owners, but the end is nearly in sight, as Nvidia promises a...
A screenshot captured on the Quest 3S | Photo: Meta via Polygon “Personally, I think Xbox hardware is dead,” decried Laura Fryer, one of Microsoft Game Studios’ founding employees, in a recent YouTube video. Sparking Fryer’s fear for the hardware legacy of Xbox was Microsoft’s reveal of the ROG Xbox Ally, a collaboration revealed during Summer Game Fest that fluffed a longtime dream of Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer without...
Working out how to change character in a free-to-play game like Mecha Break is always a challenge, as you walk the fine line between what you get for free and what they want you to pay for. Sadly, Mecha Break is pretty stingy in terms of character cosmetics—you'll be able to customize your character's base appearance, but beyond that, you'll have to shell out real cash to unlock outfits or...
The sales results from one retailer can't be used to judge the success of a product across the globe, but if those from German retailer Mindfactory are anything to go by, it would seem that PC gamers have really had enough of 8 GB graphics cards. So much so, they're willing to pay an extra €70 ($82) just to have the doubled VRAM version of the RTX 5060 Ti.When Nvidia...
I remember it well. Four years ago my friends and I were gearing up for the annual Minecraft Live broadcast, excited to see what the big update theme would be this year, but primarily concerned with one thing: The Minecraft mob vote.Back in 2021, the vote was between three mobs, the allay, the copper golem, and the glare. Each was predictably charming in its own way, but the one that...
Customizing your mecha by changing its looks is part of the fun in Mecha Break. Simply altering the colors can make your favorite Striker look more fierce. The game offers you varying options of each cosmetic – except skins – for free, but many still need to be unlocked.
