As we roll towards Computex, and hopefully a whole bunch of PC gaming hardware announcements, I can't help but get excited about talk of entry-level components. Probably most of all, I'm excited about the prospect of an (as-yet uncertain) AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT announcement which will hopefully rock the entry-level graphics card segment. So I'm most certainly excited by rumour that there will, in fact, be an 8 GB...
Generative AI has gotten its deep learning tentacles into many parts of gaming life, and tabletop is no exception—take Dungeons & Dragons for example. While Wizards of the Coast has endured controversy after controversy for accidentally putting AI art in sourcebooks, and has a generally anti-AI stance, Hasbro's CEO Chris Cocks has been on the record as, uh, not doing that.Which is why I've found myself pleasantly surprised to find...
The 27-inch 4K OLED market has been the media darling since CES 2025 so you'd be forgiven for forgetting the good ol' staple 34-inch OLED ultrawide. Funny because it was Alienware's fantastic AW3423DW that kicked off the OLED gaming monitor race a few years ago. Gigabyte has quietly dropped its first OLED ultra-wide, the Gigabyte MO34WQC2—a 3440x1440, QD-OLED panel, with a 240 Hz refresh rate, USB Power Delivery, and a...
Turtle Beach's budget gaming headsets fuelled my childhood years of yelling at friends on Call of Duty, but there's a reason I haven't touched them in a while. In my experience, poor audio quality, flimsy builds, and mediocre microphones proved to me (or more so, my mum) that putting just a little extra cash in often gets a much better investment in the long run. However, I'm fully prepared for...
World of Warcraft, in a huge move for a 20-year old MMO, has just announced plans to slowly, but surely, phase out its combat add-ons in favour of building that functionality into the main game. The sky's not falling just yet, mind, and these plans aren't set in stone, but there's a possible future in which your WeakAuras and such will no longer work.That doesn't mean Blizzard's taking the axe...
Last month, we had breakout runaway hits, indie darlings, and a few surprises. Which game spoke to you the most? Some of the big new releases included Blue Prince, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Forever Skies, and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered. How does it work? At the end of every month, PlayStation Blog will open a poll where you can vote for the best new game released that month....
Studio Ghibli’s most harrowing and devastating movie will soon be available in a Steelbook Blu-ray. The Grave of the Fireflies Steelbook costs $22.96 (or $26.98 on Amazon) and releases July 8. Pre-orders are available now. Grave of the Fireflies is based on a semi autobiographical short story of the same name, which follows two orphaned siblings struggling to survive the final months of the Pacific War. It’s an unflinching look...
A Japanese player has already crossed beating The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Nintendo Switch 2 off the list. YouTuber and speedrunner Ikaboze managed that feat this past weekend at Nintendo Switch 2 Experience: Tokyo, where attendees had a chance to go hands on with Nintendo’s next-gen console. Like other attendees, Ikaboze was limited to 10 minutes of playtime on Switch 2, but he managed to see...
Hello there, PlayStation fans! That’s no moon over the Battle Royale Island — it’s a whole Star Wars Season! Also, the celebration is just getting started in LEGO Fortnite Brick Life. Over in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, explore and battle for galactic supremacy. The fun continues in Rocket League with the new 2v2 Car Wars LTM. There’s a lot to unpack, but don’t worry — these are the updates you’re looking...
In the latest batch of Andor episodes, we get to see Cassian (Diego Luna) do something he’s never done before: dress up. He’s been in disguise before, and certainly incognito as the (immaculately named) Keef Girgo. But Cassian’s spy work so rarely takes him to upscale establishments; even around the rarefied air of Coruscant, he’s still just sporting a nice jacket with an ample hood so he can hide. So...
