Borderlands 4 boss Randy Pitchford is encouraging people to request refunds if they aren't enjoying the newly launched game, and now one publisher known for being cheeky has weighed in and offered up an alternative.
Devolver Digital said anyone who gets a refund for Borderlands 4 can spend that money on one of its games, Mycopunk, which launched in July and costs $15. The game bears some stylistic resemblances to Borderlands 4, and, like that game, is also a co-op shooter set on an alien...

During last week's Nintendo Direct, Square Enix surprised Dragon Quest fans with Dragon Quest VII Reimagined, a remake of the classic PlayStation RPG from the year 2000. It seems Square Enix was not done with the surprise Dragon Quest reveals, as today the company announced Dragon Quest Smash/Grow, a roguelite RPG for mobile devices that will enter a closed beta test next month.
Dragon Quest Smash/Grow tasks players with fighting hordes of enemies at once, "smashing" through their ranks in...
If you've played any PC or console games over the last 12 months, there's a good chance that at least one of them was a remake or a remaster. That's according to new research, which found that not only have these games been popular with the people they polled for this research, they've also been "desirable" diversions.
Specialist strategy and insights consultancy firm MTM (via GamesIndustry.Biz) polled 1,500 people--750 people each in the US and the UK--who play games regularly. "Our report...
EA's new Skate game, the first in 15 years, launched this week and put up big numbers on Steam for its early-access release. The launch hasn't gone over totally smoothly, however, as players encountered server issues and other problems. Another issue people are reporting is a "softlock" problem that prevents people from accessing certain points in the skateboarding game.
"We've seen a lot of reports on getting softlocked in various points--the Isle of Grom Tutorial, various Missions and/or...
Mutant Football League 2 developer Digital Dreams has announced that the game will officially launch for PC and console on December 10.

Like EA's popular Madden series, Mutant Football League 2 is...
If you're anything like me, then you've been waiting for Little Nightmares 3 since before it was even officially announced. The game releases on October 10, but developer Supermassive Games has put a demo up on storefronts for free, and you can play it right now.
The demo will see you take control of Low and Alone in the game's first area, The Necropolis--an abandoned city in the middle of a desert. Watch out for Monster Baby as you step into Little Nightmares 3 for the first time. You can...
Borderlands 4 debuted with largely good reviews from critics as well as some brutally negative reviews on Steam about optimization problems with the PC port. Gearbox Studios CEO Randy Pitchford has been one of his game's most outspoken defenders, and he has disputed players' accounts about performance problems in Borderlands 4. Pitchford has also continued to be vocal on social media in the face of pushback from fans.
The majority of Pitchford's messages have included instructions and tips...
The indie game scene may be dominated by Hollow Knight: Silksong at the moment, but it's not the only success story out there. Critical Reflex's new horror game No, I'm Not a Human has already amassed an impressive audience on Twitch in only a few days after its release.
No, I'm Not a Human has already hit a peak of over 124,000 viewers watching it at once on Twitch. So far, the game's reception on Steam has been more muted, with a current peak of 8,248 players. But this is a single-player...
This week, the Skate franchise returned as a free game after a 15-year hiatus. Players are currently exploring the city of San Vansterdam and discovering its secrets. One fan has already found a glitch that lets players slow their falls to a crawl as long as they're clapping on the way down.
Reddit user SurWesley shared a video demonstrating the glitch by skating off M-Corp title. To pull off this controlled descent, players need to press the emote button while bailing and keep holding on...

Donkey Kong Bananza was a smashing hit when it landed as one of the Nintendo Switch 2's earliest major exclusives, so it makes perfect sense that Nintendo would capitalize on its success with some DLC. The DK Island + Emerald Rush DLC provides nostalgic fans with a small but charming new island to explore and a whole new mode to work through that changes up the gameplay loop from the base game.
If you're looking to dive into Donkey Kong Bananza's DK Island + Emerald Rush DLC, here's how to...
After what felt like a couple of centuries in the making, EA has finally revived its classic Skate franchise with a new, free-to-play entry in the series. It's an early-access title right now, so it's fairly barebones in terms of its presentation, and the live-service aspect has sparked quite a bit of, ah, discussion among longtime fans of the series. But there is one thing that folks seem to be in agreement on with the new Skate: They nailed the feel of skating just like the original games...
Next month, Splinter Cell's Sam Fisher is coming out of retirement in a new Netflix animated series, Splinter Cell: Deathwatch. While the show will feature a new story that's not adapted from the games, the latest trailer for Deathwatch reveals that one of the primary adversaries is someone with a link to Sam's past.
The previous trailer for Deathwatch had a quick glimpse of a gravestone for Douglas Shetland, who was a character in the Pandora Tomorrow and Chaos Theory games. Douglas was...

EA's new Skate game--the first in 15 years--launched today into early access, and the free-to-play game is proving popular enough that players are facing server queues due to the player load. Developer Full Circle has now reacted to player complaints about server queues. At the same time, people are logging into the game to find it requires a constant internet connection--something Full Circle warned about months ago but isn't going down well with the community today

Diablo 4 Season 10 arrives September 23, and it will bring with it a major change to boss fights that players have long been asking for.
Since Diablo 4's launch, players have complained about boss immunity phases, scripted moments in boss battles where endgame bosses become invincible and force players to contend with various mechanics before they can be harmed.
While on paper it might make sense, it was resulting in a frustrating experience for many players who could easily kill the boss...
World of Warcraft premium cosmetics are nothing new, but a new bundle is raising eyebrows due to the sheer amount of stuff it includes.
Normally, a new premium cosmetic bundle isn't particularly noteworthy. Blizzard has sold mounts, pets, helmets, and armor sets for real money for years now. Two years ago, Blizzard sold its most expensive WoW mount ever, the Trader's Gilded Brutosaur, for $90.
The new Ascended Regalia Pack, however, stands out, but not because of the $30 price tag...
A new update arrived to Call of Duty: Warzone on September 16. While this is a very small update, the patch notes include a few notable bug fixes and changes to Season 5's Deadline limited-time mode.
Season 5 Reloaded added the new Deadline limited-time mode, and now the new update makes a few improvements to the match rules. Circles two, three, and four are now extended by 30 seconds each. The developer says this change was made to allow players "extra time to coordinate and rack up...
Borderlands 4 is now out, and amidst several issues that players have reported, it looks like there's a bug that could cause you to lose all of your skill points. So what's causing this glitch to trigger? Gearbox says that disconnecting and rejoining a multiplayer session or a game crash in single-player could be the problem here, and it says that it has noted here. There is currently no way to restore those lost skill points, and there's no indicator yet of when a fix for this bug will be...
