Fresh off of the release of Donkey Kong Bananza, Nintendo is bringing back the long out-of-print King K. Rool Amiibo. The reprint of the original Donkey Kong villain--unless you count DK, of course--launches September 11 and is available to preorder at Best Buy. King K.

Rool with the Donkey Kong & Pauline Amiibo, which launched alongside the Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive in...
Dropout.TV is becoming a surprisingly big name in the streaming world as an inexpensive service that puts its fans and employees above maxing out profits.

Reich told Kotaku that if Dropout did release a game, it would be based on either Game Changers or Dimension 20, the service's...

Killing Floor 3 has a bigger emphasis on choosing the best skills for each of the perks. With a few familiar names and new additions, and all classes getting 30 levels' worth of skills each, it can be a daunting task. Similarly to Killing Floor 2, after reaching a certain level milestone per perk, you'll gain access to a new row of skills, which ranges from one to three options. The key is that you can also spend points to upgrade them, which makes pivoting a bit hard. If you're wondering...
You have several different options when you're the quarterback in Madden NFL 26. You can choose to pass the ball, run with it yourself, throw the ball away, or even take a sack to possibly avoid a turnover. Most of the time, though, you'll be passing the ball to one of your receivers. While you can simply press a receiver's button to throw them the ball, there can be a little more strategy to it than that. Madden 26 allows you to throw a few different kinds of passes whenever you decide to...
From their massive open worlds, unfathomably large download sizes, and seemingly endless checklists of collectibles, missions, and side quests, games are so much nowadays. It's really no fault of the titles themselves that this formula works--it's tried, it's true, and it sells. But it does mean that I appreciate the occasional break from this exact mold of game. And Roger, a narrative game that can be completed within an hour and manages to do so much with so little, offers exactly that...
Borderlands 4 includes new features for the series, one of which is double-jumping. Developer Gearbox didn't feel the need to justify the feature's existence, because Borderlands 4 was developed with the aim of allowing players to do what they want, even if it doesn't make sense. "The biggest commitment we made in Borderlands 4 is to give the players what they want," Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford said in an interview with the Epic Games Store. "We just said, 'F**k it. You can double jump.'"...

Late last year, Naughty Dog revealed that its next game will be Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, a new sci-fi story set thousands of years in an alternate future. While the game may still be years away, its leading actress, Tati Gabrielle, recently shared her experience filming her part as bounty hunter Jordan A. Mun for Naughty Dog director and studio chief Neil Druckmann. "It's a different medium," Gabrielle told YouTube channel HotCorn. "I really appreciate Neil Druckmann and the way...
Take-Two's top boss, Strauss Zelnick, has come out to say he's feeling confident that GTA 6 will not be delayed again, while also confirming Rockstar has multiple other games in the works right now. Speaking to CNBC, Zelnick was asked to state his level of conviction about GTA 6 coming out on time on May 26, 2026. He replied, "My level of conviction is very, very high, obviously." He added: "We try not to pump expectations. Rockstar's whole stock and trade is to have these extraordinary...
Baldur's Gate 3 was one of the biggest games of 2023, and naturally, Wizards of the Coast wants to follow it up with a sequel. We already know that the developer behind Baldur's Gate 3, Larian Studios, is moving on to a new, unrelated project, and Wizards of the Coast has confirmed that the new studio being led by former Respawn Entertainment game director Stig Asmussen--Giant Skull--won't be working on it either. Instead, players can expect something more action-packed from the newly...
Logitech's G29 Racing Wheel is on sale for just $230 (was $330) at Amazon, which is the best price we've seen for the premium controller since Prime Day.

Both work with PC and Mac and include the racing wheel and a floor pedal set for acceleration, clutch, and brakes. If you want a more robust setup, a...
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ Android tablet is down to one of its best prices of the year, with select 64GB models on sale for as little as $156 (normally $220) or $209 for the 128GB version (down from $270). Amazon is promoting these as "limited-time deals," meaning they won't stick around for long. While the Galaxy Tab A9+ isn't quite as premium as an iPad, it's an ideal device for streaming and web browsing--especially at this lower price. Beyond this Samsung tablet, the Apple iPad (A16...
Back in 2012, the worlds of Street Fighter and Tekken collided in the 2.5D fighting game Street Fighter X Tekken. This was a two-part project that would have been followed up by Tekken X Street Fighter, bringing Capcom's roster of brawlers into the 3D space of Tekken. That was the plan at the time, but by 2016, development had been put on hold. Just how much of the project was completed before Bandai Namco and Capcom pulled the plug on it? According to Tekken series producer Katsuhiro...
Microsoft's semi-new strategy of releasing its own games on rival platforms continues today with the debut of Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 on PS5. The original Hellblade is also arriving on PS5 today. The game's $50 standard and $70 deluxe editions are available now on the PlayStation Store, and the game is PS5 Pro-enhanced.

Kinetic Games is still slowly tinkering away at Phasmophobia's big Horror 2.0 update, and in a recent interview art director Corey J. Dixon spoke of what's in store for the game, and the difficulty of knowing when exactly it might be completely done. But interestingly, despite the fact the game is still yet to leave early access, the topic of a hypothetical Phasmophobia 2 came up, and Dixon shared whether he think it's possible or not. Speaking to IGN, Dixon explained that Kinetic Games...
An update to the Xbox Dashboard should make big gaming libraries a lot easier to navigate through a simple addition, though only certain Xbox Insiders will be able to try out the new feature first. Per the Xbox Support site, a new Xbox Update Preview came out Monday for Xbox Insiders in the invite-only Alpha Skip-Ahead ring, and it adds a notable quality-of-life feature. The preview build incluides "Free with Xbox" section under the Full Library tab, which separates demos and limited-time...
In the lead-up to Call of Duty: Black Ops 7's big reveal on August 19, Activision has released a new in-universe teaser video that highlights "The Guild," which is a "global protection" company that creates "tech we can trust." Given the tone and nature of this video, it appears The Guild is actually the villain of the story and not an entity that can, in truth, be trusted. The video features fake news headlines about humanity escalating toward a global catastrophe due to the rise of...
