"I will fight tooth and nail to make this thing the best it possibly can be" - Bloodborne's newly-announced animated feature sure sounds like it is in safe hands
Yesterday, we got the news that Bloodborne was being turned into an animated feature film, with popular YouTuber JackSepticEye taking on the role of a producer. Now, the Irish personality has uploaded a video about his involvement on the project, and I have to say, his enthusiasm is pretty infectious. Read more
Beautiful, flawed MMO Book of Travels is now a $5 singleplayer RPG, in a break from the industry trend of killing off struggling online games
I've long been an embarrassed fan of Book of Travels, the "tiny MMO" with heady artistic influences from Swedish indies Might & Delight. It's a world of enchanted string, vast cutaway forests, tinkling tea sets, and sleepy quasi-Orientalist cities. Our former news writer Lauren Morton called it "the cure for my break-up with MMOs" back in 2021. But it's never quite accomplished its ambitions, with the developers laying off around 25 staff following a difficult early access launch, and postponing
"The most fun I've had in the last week playing" - Marathon players react to the mid-season update, and its new friendly-first features
Marathon has received a massive mid-season update, bringing with it a host of balance changes, major adjustments to powerful tools, and new cosmetics. But one of the most interesting additions was the C.A.R.R.I feature - which promotes something truly alien to the mostly ruthless playerbase: being friendly to each other. Read more
"I wanted you to feel bad": former Battlefield audio designer recalls punching himself to record more realistic gunshot screams
Arc Raiders audio director Bence Pajor has spoken on the Game Makers Notebook podcast about his earlier career at DICE, working on sound effects for the Battlefield FPS series. The discussion includes some insights about how Pajor – a former Swedish military sniper – created effects for soldiers getting struck by bullets. Amongst other things, he experimented with punching himself hard enough to elicit cries of pain. It's not clear whether the resulting recordings made their way into
Disney yank a bunch of games from Steam, including bonafide classics Star Wars: Dark Forces, Outlaws and High School Musical 3: Senior Year Dance
A bunch of older games linked to or published by Disney have just been delisted from Steam in one fell swoop, with the original 90s versions of Star Wars: Dark Forces and Outlaws among their number. These 15 make up the second round of Disney-related games to be yanked from the storefront this year, with 14 having gotten the hook back in January. Read more
Marathon's next experimental mode goes all in on sponsored kits, which sounds great for scaredy-cats like me
There's another experiment on the way to Marathon. Last month, Bungie started testing a duos mode in the extraction shooter. According to an update from Joe Ziegler, that mode will be making its way into the game as a full feature in season two, with Bungie "diligently working on delivering that to all of you who are eagerly awaiting its return." But with this update comes the next test: a new mode that forces you into using sponsored kits. Read more
Marathon mid-season update nerfs claymore drones, thermal scopes, and buffs being kind to strangers
Marathon's mid season one update is here, and has brought with it some staggering changes to the state of Bungie's extraction shooter. These include the removal of one of the game's funniest strategies, a nerf to arguably its most powerful weapon attachment, and a reason to help enemy players you find out in the world. Read more
A proper Overwatch Switch 2 version releases today, boasting 'up to' 60 FPS, as Reign of Talon Season 2 arrives
Season 2 of the new-look Overwatch (formerly Overwatch 2) launches today, bringing a new hero, a new event, a reworked map and some hero changes. But most notably it signals the launch of a proper Nintendo Switch 2 version of the game. This boasts improved visuals and sound quality and - apparently - up to 60 FPS performance both docked and handheld. Finally. Read more

Bloodborne on PC remains a pipe dream, but the newly announced movie at least means taking your mouse and keyboard to the cinema is an option
Bloodborne. It's still not on PC and doesn't look to be getting a remake which might bring it to PC any time soon. There is some good news, though. Sony have announced an animated film adaptation of the game about crimson juice and goths in hats is in the works. Read more

Krafton are no longer listed as Subnautica 2's publishers on Steam and the Epic store, following a quiet switch
Update: Krafton have issued a response to Europeanvideogamer about the storefront switcheroos. The publisher said that they're "currently focused on successfully supporting the Early Access launch of Subnautica 2", and that they have "nothing further to share at this time". Original story follows: Krafton have quietly disappeared from the publisher sections of Subnautica 2's Steam and Epic Games store pages. The changes appear to be recent, with SteamDB suggesting the former was made just last w

Finally some fresh Bloodborne-flavoured news, though alas, not news that it is coming to PC. Read more
"Players always get through them faster than we think" - inside Bungie's big Marathon ARG
There was this wonderful energy around Marathon a few weeks ago. Not unusual for a brand-new release, sure, but altogether different than the usual hype-laden first impressions. No, this had the unmistakable feeling of a treasure hunt, a community-wide push to unlock something tangible: the Cryo Archive map. All they had to do was solve one measly alternate reality game (ARG). How hard could it be? Read more

Black & White at 25: how Lionhead's harebrained, stoner-powered game design became the harbinger of modern AI
Your disembodied hand trembles with raw power. It can raze forests, summon storms, and dedicate villagers to single tasks for their entirety of their humble lives: fishing, for example, or the most profound act of all - procreation (fine, shagging). But in Black & White, which recently turned 25-years-old, your divine command of mind and matter does not extend to the capricious creature roaming the grassy land below. This pesky being may be your godly will made flesh, but they're liable to disse
Roblox is introducing a subscription service that encourages more shady practices, is it? Sounds about right
I truly wonder when enough will be enough for Roblox Corporation. We all know how much money Roblox is raking in, and yet yesterday it was announced that a shiny new subscription service called Roblox Plus is on the way. This new subscription is effectively replacing Roblox Premium, which for varying monthly fees you'd get varying amounts of the in-game currency Robux. Except Roblox Plus sounds like a worse deal.

Following mass layoffs, Epic are reportedly putting their hopes on a Disney extraction shooter
I do not like the combination of the words "Epic Games," "Disney," and "extraction shooter," yet write them I must. That's because of a new report from Bloomberg (paywalled), which digs into some of the issues the Fortnite developer has been facing in recent years with the popular battle royale, and the hopes the company is pinning on its Disney deal.
