Earlier today, Pearl Abyss published its Q4 2025 earnings report, and in the subsequent earnings call, the South Korean company revealed interesting tidbits about what it will focus on after the imminent launch of Crimson Desert. The executives revealed that, depending on market demand (that is to say, depending on how well the game sells), Pearl Abyss already has plans to potentially add downloadable content and even multiplayer. As you probably remember, the game was actually supposed to be an MMO at first. Then it shifted to an open world game with multiplayer elements, but in the last few years, Pearl Abyss hasn't […]

Peter Molyneux, the original creator of the Fable franchise at Lionhead Studios, shared his first impressions on the upcoming reboot after watching the recent presentation at the Xbox Developer Direct 2026. Speaking with IGN, Molyneux revealed that he got emotional at the idea that the Fable IP, which he and the rest of Lionhead spent so much time on, would return. He also pointed out that it was a good idea for Playground to reboot the series, and added that he agreed with the twist of the protagonist's village inhabitants turning to stone at the beginning of the game. When […]

Today, South Korean developer Pearl Abyss has released the third and final Crimson Desert overview video. While the previous overviews were focused on the story and combat, this time the footage puts the spotlight on the game's non-combat activities. The heart of the player's journey in Crimson Desert will be in the Greymane Camp. After losing their homeland, Paelun, to the Black Bears, the faction established this stretch of land in Hernand as their new base of operations. Although the camp has humble beginnings, owing to the ragged state of the Greymane band at the beginning of the game, it […]

Aside from announcing the new sales milestone of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, the Embracer Group also just revealed the final launch date of the Gothic remake. The game will need a little more polishing time, the group said, and is now set to ship globally on June 5, 2026. As you might recall, a public demo was released six years ago as a test to gauge interest in the remake. The reception was positive, despite some criticism of certain aspects of the demo, and led the Embracer Group to found Alkimia Interactive, which has been working on the Gothic remake […]

This morning, during the Embracer Group's Q3 FY 2025/26 report (October-December 2025), it was revealed that Warhorse's Kingdom Come: Deliverance II game has sold more than five million units in its first year on the market. Kingdom Come: Deliverance II originally debuted on February 4, 2025, so it's been roughly a year and eight days since its release. The historical first-person open world action roleplaying game enjoyed an excellent reception; on Wccftech, reviewer Chris Wray awarded it a rare perfect score and waxed plenty of praise upon the latest work of the Czech studio: Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a […]

Hello Games has just released Remnant, another free update for No Man's Sky. The patch (6.2) introduces gravity manipulation mechanics, extensive vehicle customization, and industrial waste processing facilities. The headline feature of Remnant is arguably the Gravitino Coil, a new Multi-Tool upgrade that fundamentally changes how players interact with the game world. This device allows travelers to magnetize, carry, and launch objects, creating entirely new gameplay possibilities through physics manipulation. No Man's Sky players are now able to grab and fling various items scattered across planets, including golden artifacts discovered in planetary ruins. However, the developers believe the tool's most […]

This morning, Korean publisher Kakao Games shared its updated release schedule during the Q4 2025 earnings report, including two highly anticipated MMORPGs: ArcheAge Chronicles and Chrono Odyssey. Both games have already been delayed; they were originally slated for 2025, but got pushed to 2026. Now, Chrono Odyssey has been moved even further away, to Q1 2027, whereas Archeage Chronicles is still holding fast to its Q4 2026 window. This is slightly surprising, because ArcheAge Chronicles still hasn't hosted any Closed Beta Tests in Western countries, yet Kakao Games is confident it will debut globally before the end of this year. […]

Speculation is already running rampant on which games will be featured in tomorrow's State of Play, and one of the most anticipated PlayStation games of the year is certainly Marvel's Wolverine from Insomniac Games. However, the studio has just dropped a tidbit hinting that it might not be featured at the event. Replying on X to a user who asked when they'd release more information, the developers said it's happening at some point this Spring. Obviously, we are not in Spring yet. It's possible they might still show off a brief new trailer without any further details about the game, […]

Following a recent Marathon hands-on event organized by Bungie for Chinese media, new gameplay footage and impressions are now available online. The event reportedly took place in Shanghai earlier this month and was the first held outside North America.

The tutorial and faction introductions now provide clear origins and motivations for the playable characters, creating a more coherent story framework for the extraction shooter game. Players can discover Dr. Strauss's will; he's a pivotal figure who connects multiple narrative threads from the original Marathon […]

Grasshopper Manufacture's ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN released yesterday to fairly positive critical reviews. In Wccftech's review (8.7/10), Francesco De Meo wrote: It is the most mechanically polished and stable game since the original Shadows of the Damned, yet it beats with the heart of Flower, Sun, and Rain. It leaves behind the technical jank and the empty-world frustrations of No More Heroes III without losing the "punk" soul that makes a Suda51 game essential. It is a game that respects your time with its 12-hour runtime, but still leaves its mark with its fever-dream narrative. The debut on Steam seems very solid, too, with a 'Very Positive' verdict from user […]
