In a lengthy social media post, Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead Game Studios acknowledged "issues including performance drops, stability hiccups, freezes, and the annoying audio bugs." The plan is to start addressing those problems next month, though performance-related fixes will require a longer-term solution.
The first update is slated to arrive in "mid-October-ish" for Helldivers 2, according to the game's official X account. That patch will focus on crashing issues, audio...

Embracer Group CEO Phil Rogers has commented on AI in gaming, saying it's the "most powerful technology tool of our generation" and one that the company wants to deploy strategically.
During an investor meeting recently reported on by Game File, Rogers said, "Players aren't longing for generic, soulless side quests or synthetic AI voices." He's very bullish on AI technologies and how they may be able to help developers with things like "driving efficiency, and ultimately delivering the high...
I love Pokemon's turn-based battle mechanics. For nearly 30 years, Game Freak has tuned its rock-paper-scissors style combat to near perfection. Different generations have added new mechanics and gimmicks to keep things fresh, but Pokemon's battles have always been built around turn-based combat. With Pokemon Legends: Z-A, however, Game Freak aims to redefine what a Pokemon battle is, a fact which, naturally, gave me some pause. Yet after over an hour with the game, I'm convinced they might...
It is no secret that Battlefield 2042 had a rough launch, and against that backdrop, DICE boss Rebecka Coutaz said one of her main goals when she joined the company in 2021 was to help make the next Battlefield game, Battlefield 6, "one of the best Battlefields the world has ever seen."
She told GamesRadar that she felt an "obligation" to make a better game. "I owe that to the community and to the teams. That is my drive. That's why I'm here," she said.
Battlefield 2042 stumbled at launch...
Did you know that you can play Roblox with a VR headset? It's not a widely known feature, as many households don't have a virtual reality device readily available. The first VR headsets required a specific amount of space and multiple wires hanging off the device, making them awkward to use.
That said, with the technology becoming cheaper and more streamlined by the year, some are ditching the cumbersome cables. It may now be worth playing some of the best Roblox games in virtual reality...
If you want to hook up with your friends in Roblox, you no longer need to use third-party software such as Discord. This is because the Roblox Corporation released a dedicated Party feature that allows you and your friends to join the same experience, even if you play on different devices.
Hosting a Roblox Party is relatively straightforward, and joining one is even simpler. Right now, there are a few restrictions on who can use the feature in an effort to keep Roblox safe for all players...

Baby Steps, the literal walking simulator from the minds behind games like QWOP and Getting Over It, is out now, and publisher Devolver Digital is celebrating with a relaxing "naturescape" stream where the game's protagonist Nate violently falls into frame every 15 minutes.
It's all as weird, jarring, and hilarious as it sounds. In Baby Steps, "unemployed failson" Nate must traverse a "mountain-sized mountain" using the power of putting one foot in front of the other using the game's unique...
Activision has confirmed that you can indeed pet the dog in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, but it's not exactly what you think. Black Ops 7 is a futuristic game set in 2035, and it features the Deployable Armored Weaponized Groundcraft, or D.A.W.G. In a newly released video, the developers from Treyarch said a small team put in the work to add the ability to pet the killer robot machine.
"This is a fun one. It started as a small, little Easter egg and, inevitably, somebody asked the question...
The Steam Deck is still regarded as the benchmark that all handheld gaming PCs aspire to be like, and if you've been looking to get one, now might be the best time to do so as it has been discounted by 20%. At a time when gaming hardware has gotten more expensive over time, getting a Steam Deck for just $319 is a pretty good deal overall. This pre-Steam Fall Sale deal saves you $80 off the regular price of the 256GB LCD screen model, making it cheaper than the original Switch console in...
World of Warcraft's upcoming Legion Remix event will include plenty of new and returning transmog options for players to collect, but one highly coveted set of Artifact appearances from the original Legion expansion won't be among them.
Legion, originally released in 2016, is one of WoW's most popular expansions. That popularity is, in part, due to its Artifact-weapon system. Every player was granted an iconic weapon from Warcraft lore to upgrade over the course of the expansion. Because...
After a few years in early access, the full version of Slime Rancher 2 has now launched for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.

In response to the Department of Homeland Security's video using Ash Ketchum to promote ICE, The Pokemon Company's ex-legal chief said he "wouldn't touch" it, suggesting some possible reasons why the company might not pursue legal action.
This week, Homeland Security posted a video to X of an arrest compilation. In between footage of ICE agents handcuffing people at their homes and in their cars are clips from the OG Pokemon TV series, with the famed "Gotta catch 'em all" theme playing in...

Whiskerwood has players controlling industrious mice who live under the "oppressive paw" of cat overlords. Players will travel the seas, explore new lands, and build cities as they make the best of things while the "oppressive demands" of the cat overlords are asking for more and more.

Ubisoft's classic platforming series Rayman celebrated its 30th anniversary earlier this month. The developer confirmed the next mainline entry is in the works, but it sounds like it's a long ways off. While that's probably not what fans wanted to hear, at least you can buy a brand-new version of Rayman for Game Boy Color. That sentence sounds odd, but it's true: Ubisoft partnered with ModRetro to rerelease the GBC version of the original Rayman. An actual GBC cartridge, in fact, and it...
