Despite rumors initially pointing to a reveal happening today, a new report from Insider-Gaming points to Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced getting its full reveal next week. But most importantly, the report claims that we have a release date to look forward to for the upcoming remake. Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced will reportedly launch on July 9, 2026. This comes after Ubisoft reportedly held a private presentation for content creators and select members of the press today, ahead of next week's full public reveal. It's unfortunate, of course, that today's reveal was seemingly postponed, but all signs are pointing […]

All the way back in 2021, a former Ubisoft producer, Jade Raymond, and PlayStation Studios came together to form Haven Studios, a new team that was set to make a new multiplayer-focused game for PlayStation, which was revealed to be a new heist shooter, Fairgames, two years later in 2023. As we've continued to wait for any sign of Fairgames' release, Raymond left the studio, it was rumored to be cancelled at one point, and now, a new report claims it has pivoted to be a new kind of game in what is seemingly the hottest genre around: extraction shooters. […]

NVIDIA has pushed the latest drivers to get players ready for Pragmata, the latest third-person action game from Capcom which is set to release tomorrow, April 17, 2026. The new drivers help players with all tiers of NVIDIA gear, though anyone sporting the latest RTX 50 Series graphics cards will undoubtedly have the best experience as they can take full advantage of the game's support of DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation and DLSS Ray Reconstruction. With path-tracing and DLSS 4 both on, players with that high-end hardware can hit upwards of 200 FPS according to NVIDIA. It's also worth […]

We all know mass layoffs are a major issue the video games industry has been facing for the last several years. It doesn't matter if you helped develop the best-selling game of the year, or if your game died within a year, game developers cannot trust that their jobs will be safe, and a new survey from Skillsearch has just put some numbers to how it is impacting the way developers navigate the industry. Spotted by GamesIndustry.Biz, Skillsearch's Salary and Satisfaction survey collected data from over 1,000 video games industry professionals across Europe, North America, the UK, APAC, and MENA, […]

Glen Schofield, the Dead Space creator and more recently the founder of Striking Distance Studios, the team behind the Dead Space spiritual successor, The Callisto Protocol, is the kind of industry veteran who is almost always up for sharing his thoughts on what he believes the path forward for the industry is. Last year, while also admitting that the commercial failure that was The Callisto Protocol might have been the last game he gets to direct in his long career, he also talked about the current state of the video game industry and why it's so difficult for anyone looking […]

The latest batch of games joining the PS Plus Extra Games Catalog have been revealed, and they're headlined by a few big, but admittedly older titles. The Crew Motorfest and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered are undoubtedly two of the bigger titles joining this month, but it altogether makes for a bit of a disappointing batch compared to last month's entries. Unless you're a big fan of squirrels and managing professional football clubs. It's not a bad batch overall, of course, and all of these games will be available as of April 21, 2026. But the issue with Horizon joining the […]

Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss is the latest Lovecraftian-themed game to hit the shelves, and while I can’t speak for its contemporaries, I have to imagine it stands towards the top of any ranking list, because it is, in many ways, an incredible experience. There’s a lot here for puzzle fans to love, there’s a little for horror fans to love, and woven through all of it is a narrative that doesn’t ever try to reinvent the wheel but is able to solidly execute and deliver a good payoff by the time you hit credits. If you ever get there, that […]

Path of Exile 2 is developer Grinding Gear Games' self-dubbed "next generation action RPG," and this round-up will take you through everything you need to know about the game between its early access launch, to 1.0, and beyond. After getting announced all the way back in 2019, Path of Exile 2 arrived in Early Access in December 2024 after it was delayed from its initial November 2024 release window. When it arrived a little more than a year after Diablo IV, comparisons between the two ARPGs were all over the place. But at least at the time of its early […]

Starfield finally made its (somewhat inevitable) arrival on PS5 last week, alongside the launch of its Free Lanes update and the Terran Armada DLC expansion, and in its first week on PlayStation, according to a new report from Alinea Analytics, the game has managed to sell 140K copies. Not a bad start when you look at it on the surface, but Alinea's report seemingly proves that Starfield is mid. Or at least its PS5 launch sales are, compared to other Xbox Game Studios-published games that have arrived on PS5 within the last six months. Compared to The Outer Worlds 2, […]

EA and Full Circle have revealed a new Nike SB collab for Skate, as one of the most highly anticipated collabs finally joins the game.

The Nike event will be on from April 14 to May 5, during which all players will have access to the Isle of Grom. Afterwards, it's back to having to either buy a day pass to the island, or buy the premium Skate pass to access it. Which was the bit of the Isle […]

Another batch of games has been confirmed to include support for NVIDIA's DLSS upscaling technology, with this list including some games that are out in a matter of days, like Pragmata, and others that have just been announced and won't release for a while, but will still arrive with support for the upscaler at launch.

WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers, the Soulslike action game from developer Leenzee Games and publisher 505 Games didn't exactly set the Soulslike world on fire when it arrived last year, but it wasn't the biggest disappointment either. Regardless, it seems like we won't see Leenzee take another kick at the can, as the studio's core development team has reportedly dissolved following the departure of its lead director. According to SavePoint Gaming (via Eurogamer), producer and director Xia Siyuan was let go from the studio amidst a change in its top-end leadership. Per multiple reports from Chinese outlets including GamerSky, the new regime […]
