Nintendo’s Switch 2 has exactly one weird and exciting new feature: The Joy-Con 2 can be used like a mouse. And it works well — even on pants! But only a few titles so far have confirmed support for the new hardware, including Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, and a new game announced Monday: Mouse Work.

South of Midnight could debatably be called “South of Noon,” based on its release time in some time zones. South of Midnight is a Southern Gothic-inspired action adventure that’s also the next notable “Game Pass” release — a AA game that might fly under the radar but gets a boost by Xbox’s marketing apparatus for launching day one (albeit with staggered access) on Game Pass. So like Avowed, Atomfall, or...
“I don’t think that Game Changer gets meaningfully more ambitious than this season without me getting arrested,” Sam Reich — CEO of Dropout but, more pertinently, host of its flagship competition series, Game Changer — tells Polygon. Seven seasons in, Game Changer has hosted miniature versions of half a dozen reality shows, pulled off even more unique feats of intricately constructed mindfuckery, and variously terrorized, rewarded, thwarted, and bamboozled Dropout’s...

My favourite part of A Minecraft Movie, without a shadow of a doubt, has to be Jennifer Coolidge's romance with Nitwit, a villager who escapes the Overworld and gets hit by her car. It's a love story for the ages, and an onscreen romance that Coolidge has herself admitted had some fire to it."Sometimes you show up to a movie and you read the script and they haven't cast your...
We now know that the two new heroes arriving in Marvel Rivals for Season 2 are Emma Frost and Ultron. Despite being incredibly excited to get my hands on both characters, I can't help but wonder what this all means for our friend Blade, who's still stuck in a small room on the Central Park map.Blade was first teased during the Central Park map reveal for Marvel Rivals, the only...
Balatro's creator has no enemies—in fact, he has no negative feelings at all. He has spent so much time plugged into his poker roguelite (and our game of the year for 2024) that he has purged himself of all tempestuous emotions and emerged a new, centred being of pure cards.As bragged about (rightfully so) on Bluesky, LocalThunk writes: "Beat every deck on every difficulty! I still want to 100% the...
If you're pondering what to do with Pinnacle Coins in Monster Hunter Wilds, you've likely just completed your first arena quest in the Grand Hub.
