In 2015, Obsidian Entertainment launched Pillars of Eternity, a party-based real-time tactical RPG. Now Obsidian is making one of the most significant changes to the game in the last 10 years by introducing a turn-based mode. And Pillars of Eternity players will be able to get their hands on it this week.
On the game's official site, Obsidian announced that the public beta for Pillars of Eternity's turn-based mode will go live on November 5. The real-time combat was inspired by the system...
Switch 2 players have spent several months cruising through Mario Kart World's large open-world map, but if you're looking for a way to make those drives through the Mushroom Kingdom even more immsersive, you'll want to check out Numbskull's official Joy-Con steering wheel accessory that's set to launch on November 22. The device is larger and more robust than the simple Joy-Con wheel accessories already available, but at just $30, it's also much more affordable than the advanced steering...
Have you ever felt like sports commentators like Cris Collinsworth and Joe Davis can get a little wild on NFL and MLB broadcasts sometimes? Their real-world tangents are nothing compared to some recently uncovered voice lines for MLB Slugfest 2003.
"Enjoying some smoked whale meat up in the booth today," one of the fictional casters says mid-game. "I don't really care for it, but I can't stop eating it."
Other lines talk about players getting drunk, the commentators walking into traffic...
Fantastic Pixel Castle, the NetEase-owned MMO studio founded by former World of Warcraft lead system designer Greg Street, will shut down November 17.
Street announced the studio's closure date in a post on LinkedIn. In weeks prior, Street stated NetEase had pulled funding from the studio but had allowed it time to seek out a new publisher or raise funding for their fledgling MMORPG, project Ghost.
Those efforts have not panned out. Street said "there is still a chance" the studio could...
Just over a year ago, Sony took the drastic step of shutting down Concord and issuing refunds two weeks after its release because the game failed to find an audience. Now, Concord's demise is being used as an example of why gamers need more consumer protections during a debate in the United Kingdom's House of Lords.
As reported by Eurogamer, one MP specifically cited Concord's quick demise while arguing in favor of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024.
"I know the...
Fortnite's big crossover with The Simpsons is now live, and it brings with it a host of content themed around the longrunning animated series. Players can purchase the battle pass to unlock Homer and Stupid Sexy Flanders skins (among other cosmetics and items), but you don't have to spend anything extra to unlock a free glider based on Springfield's most famous aliens if you meet a few requirements.
As part of the collaboration, Epic and Disney are offering up the Kang and Kodos glider for...
One of the recurring themes from a vocal segment of Battlefield 6 fans before and after launch was a desire to see the game free of Call of Duty-style ridiculous skins. The dev team responded by telling fans that Battlefield 6 would be "a gritty, realistic shooter." But after releasing the recent "Wicked Grin" skin, Battlefield Studios has quietly removed the light blue outfit from the lineup.
Much like an apparent orange skin and an earlier leaked skin, the response to the "Wicked Grin"...
Rapper Soulja Boy is once again trying to sell a game console, this time selling what looks to be a rebranded Retroid Pocket Flip 2 under the name SouljaGame Flip.

He said the device is actually a new SouljaGame Flip console that is "out right now" and can be bought from his website. He said it has "all the games...
In a new regulatory filing, Electronic Arts outlined a number of the risks the company faces, and one of them is the company's own $55 billion sale to a private investor consortium led by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF).
The Securities & Exchange Commission requires companies to disclose risks to its business activity in quarterly 10-Q filings. EA disclosed these as per usual, but a new risk this time around is specific to its pending sale to the PIF, Silver Lake, and Affinity...
Remember the good old days when Flash games were at their peak, and it seemed like we had an unlimited free gaming library to choose from, no matter the type of PC you had?

If you had any concerns that developer Embark Studios would embrace the Call of Duty-like goofy costumes for its stylish extraction shooter Arc Raiders, you can rest assured. While you never say never, the team has made it clear that "novelty" skins are not coming to the game at this point.
Design director Virgil Watkins told PCGamesN on October 30 that the game's visual identity is so strong that adding silly skins would tarnish that artistic vision.
"What I believe to be true is that we...
Weapons are the main line of defense between you and any enemy you come across in Arc Raiders. While you have some secondary equipment and even your teammates to help you survive, it's the weapons that you take with you into every drop that will largely determine if you extract unscathed or not. For that reason, you'll need to know how to upgrade your weapons in Arc Raiders early and often.
At the start of your Arc Raiders account, you have very little to work with in the way of weapons...
World of Warcraft may soon receive a new form of premium currency called Hearthsteel, one that will likely be used to buy housing-specific items.
A datamine by Wowhead of the alpha build for WoW's upcoming Midnight expansion revealed the currency and a number of icons that show increasingly larger amounts of it, reminiscent of the icons used to denote premium currency bundles. The currencies are linked to a description that states they are part of a housing market bundle.
While Blizzard...
Cyberpunk 2 is one of multiple projects in the works at CD Projekt Red, and now some new information about the game has come to light. Cyberpunk creator Mike Pondsmith has revealed that the sequel will feature a brand-new city that he described as "like Chicago gone wrong."
Appearing in a REDstreams broadcast, Pondsmith said he recently visited the developers and said he spoke with the environment team to see how the new city was coming together. Whatever this place is, it will be on top of...
Without the Witcher novels by Andrezj Sapkowski, there wold be no hit series on Netlflix or even the video games that revitalized the property a decade ago. According to Sapkowski, he's happy with his arrangements with CD Projekt Red, even though the devs don't ask him many questions anymore.
While promoting his latest novel (via GamesRadar), Sapkowski noted that CD Projekt Red used to approach him about additional info about the characters and the world he created. Now, he says it's "so...
With The Simpsons taking over Fortnite battle royale, we've been duking it out on a new, cel-shaded island based on Springfield, the home of the long-running sitcom's titular family. Naturally, the island is full of references to the show, both big and small, and you can earn a healthy chunk of XP toward the new Simpsons-themed battle pass by finding some of them. On top of that, we've got a set of story quests to start us off, as well as some found quests that literally pop out of treasure...
A weird invincibility exploit has apparently led to Epic Games disabling The Simpsons couch in Fortnite. That means players can't take a seat on the iconic piece of animated furniture currently. The timing is also unfortunate, since last night's Simpsons episode featured an opening couch gag with Fortnite characters.
The official Fortnite Status account on X posted about the couch issue at 8:05 PM ET on November 2, which is literally five minutes after The Simpsons started last night. The...
Video game remakes and remasters have attracted impressive player numbers and generated substantial consumer spending, research shows, although full-on remakes may have a slight edge.
Research firm Ampere Analysis tracked data from January 2024 to September 2025, looking at 42 re-releases (specifically, 15 remakes and 27 remasters). These releases accumulated 72.4 million players across Xbox, PlayStation, and Steam, with consumers spending $1.4 billion from purchasing these games and...
Netflix's The Witcher is heading into its final seasons, and not all fans are happy. With Liam Hemsworth taking over as Geralt from Henry Cavill in Season 4, some viewers have criticized the show for straying from Andrzej Sapkowski's beloved books. But showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich wants fans to remember that there’s more than one way to enjoy The Witcher.
"One of the things that I've talked a lot to the author about and a lot to fans about is that the books still exist. No one is...
