The Game Awards founder Geoff Keighley has been teasing an upcoming game announcement, which happens to involve a massive, glowing, demonic statue placed in the middle of the California desert. While it's still unclear what exactly the statue is promoting, CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski has confirmed that it's not Lords of the Fallen 2.
When the statue was first revealed, the most popular guesses for what it was marketing included Diablo, a new God Of War title, Elder Scrolls 6, or Lords of...

Earlier this month, the cancellation of Postal: Bullet Paradise over allegations that it was made with AI assets demonstrated that the issue of artificial intelligence in game development remains controversial. Now, Bethesda's Todd Howard has weighed in on the issue while promoting Fallout Season 2, and he confirmed that his company does use AI, but only as a tool guided by real artists.
"I view [AI] as a tool," said Howard via Eurogamer. "Creative intention comes from human artists, number...

Officially licensed and created by Particula Tech, GoChess Wizard is one of numerous AI-enabled games featured in Particula's holiday sale this month.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is intended as both a continuation and a new start for the long dormant franchise. Though Nintendo has never quite said it overtly, it has seemed likely that this is meant to launch a new series of Prime games--possibly even a second trilogy, for the sake of dramatic rhyme. And the ending of Prime 4 accents that feeling, leaving the door wide open for more story--but in the process, diminishing the character of protagonist Samus Aran.
Spoilers for Metroid Prime 4...
Nvidia today is the world's most valuable company with a market cap of more than $4 trillion, thanks in large part to the AI boom of the past few years. But Nvidia's success was far from guaranteed.
CEO and co-founder Jensen Huang recalled recently how a $5 million gift following a failed business deal with Sega gave the company the lifeline it needed at the time, allowing the fledgling company to stay in business and eventually become what it is today.

Earlier this week, Running With Scissors unveiled a new look at Postal: Bullet Paradise, a Postal spin-off developed by Goonswarm Games as a Vampire Survivors-like shooter. However, fan backlash against the alleged AI elements in Bullet Paradise have led Running With Scissors to cancel the game entirely.
"After revealing Postal: Bullet Paradise, a title Running With Scissors was planning on publishing--but not developing--we've been overwhelmed with negative responses from our concerned...
While the gaming world eagerly awaits the launch of Grand Theft Auto 6 in 2026, Rockstar Games has announced a variety of new themed products for the holidays, including a $60 candle that smells like "Vice." This is likely a reference to Vice City, the setting of 2002's GTA: Vice City and next year's GTA 6.
Developed in collaboration with Joya Studios, the Vice candle comes in a frosted white glass with the Rockstar Games logo and has notes of lemon California, yerba mate, thyme, fig leaf...
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond isn't a Switch 2 exclusive, but how it would run on the OG Switch has remained a mystery through its entire announcement and preview cycle. The preview coverage has consistently been running on Switch 2, and review codes were for the Switch 2 Edition, so many reviews including ours evaluated that version. Now that the game is out, though, we can put any lingering concerns to rest: The game plays smoothly on the original Switch.
For the purposes of this look at the...
Rainbow Six Siege celebrated its 10th anniversary this month, a milestone that many live-service games haven't come close to matching. The tactical shooter launched in 2015, and it has evolved into a major attraction at esports tournaments across the globe, reaching 85 million players to date. To keep things fresh, Rainbow Six Siege's "most transformative" update yet went live earlier this year, prompting a surge of new and veteran players to hop into the game.
But will we ever see Rainbow...
Dave the Diver is a modest game that has expanded like Dave's belt size. The underwater adventure and restaurant management sim mash-up was a surprise hit, and has since spawned crossover efforts with fishing game Dredge, the kaiju Godzilla, and even Ichiban Kasuga of the Like A Dragon series. Now the game is preparing to dive back in with the In The Jungle expansion in early 2026. The DLC will see Dave and his crew heading to a new freshwater biome and catching lake-dwelling creatures to...
New Vegas will play a prominent role in Fallout Season 2, which will premiere later this month on Prime Video. So it's fitting that the developers behind Fallout: New Vegas, Obsidian Entertainment, got to visit the TV show's set, according to Bethesda boss Todd Howard.
Speaking to PC Gamer, Howard revealed that he invited Obsidian to check out the New Vegas set for Fallout Season 2. "Huge respect to the folks at Obsidian," said Howard. "Had them out to the set to see this, and they've had...
Rockstar Games has announced more details on the next big update for GTA 5's multiplayer mode, including the long-awaited return of Michael De Santa.
Michael is one of GTA 5's three main playable characters, and fans have been waiting for a long time to interact with him again after the events of the main story. A GTA Online expansion from 2021 confirmed that Michael was still alive. In the soon-to-release A Safehouse in the Hills expansion, he's back--and he looks older. Take a look for...

Nintendo enthusiasts believe that an announcement for Mario Kart World DLC is imminent, though it takes a few steps to reach that conclusion.
Evidence, fans believe, stems from datamined information from the Nintendo Today app, which shares daily bite-sized pieces of news and offers several themes based on various Nintendo franchises. A new Donkey Kong theme came to the app recently, and per datamines (which you can see on Mario Wiki), it looks like the app will highlight a character that...
AdHoc CEO Michael Choung thinks most studios should avoid episodic releases, a stance he makes clear even as Dispatch--the studio’s debut superhero workplace comedy--has become a runaway success. Choung says the weekly-release format that helped Dispatch explode past 1 million sales in 10 days and put it on track to hit its three-year sales target in just three months was difficult at every turn and an actual "insane thing to do."
Speaking to technology newsletter Knowledge, Choung recalled...
