News Abby Voice Actress Laura Bailey Had a Brief Cameo in HBO's The Last of Us Finale
Bet you missed it
The finale of HBO's excellent The Last of Us adaptation aired last night, and while perhaps not as impactful as we found the source material to be, it was still a fitting conclusion to a great series. Eagle-eyed observers might have spotted a familiar face (albeit obscured) during one of the episode's most climactic scenes. We...

News Soulslike Bleak Faith: Forsaken Accused of 'Stealing' Elden Ring Animation Assets
Immitation, flattery, and all that
Plenty of games lift ideas and concepts from FromSoftware's revolutionary gameplay formula, popularised by Dark Souls back in 2011. This is so common, in fact, that an entire cottage genre of "Soulslike" games now exists. Bleak Faith: Forsaken, a Soulslike game released on 10th March, has allegedly taken things one...

News Agent 47 Gets Hit with a Sleeper Hold, Hitman Franchise Is 'a Little Bit on Hiatus'
While the studio focuses on James Bond
The recently rebranded Hitman 3 (with the trilogy now collectively known as Hitman - World of Assassination) might be the last time we see the heroically impassive Agent 47 for a while. Developer IO Interactive confirmed that the series would be taking some time off while the studio focuses on its now...

The Doctor will see you now
The imminent and eagerly anticipated remake of perhaps the most beloved survival horror game ever made, Capcom's Resident Evil 4, is almost upon us (launching 24th March).

Mini Review Job Simulator (PSVR2) - A Port Worthy of a Promotion
Jobsworth
Job Simulator’s enduring popularity is no coincidence: it is, after all, the quintessential virtual reality game. Spread across four impressively interactive occupations, you’ll turn your comically exaggerated hands to all kinds of amusing tasks, like cooking the books as an office worker and dealing with a robbery as a convenience...

Review WWE 2K23 (PS5) - 2K Sports' Wrestling Series Continues Its Steady Rise
Never give up
Minor tweaks and improvements are the usual selling points of annualised sporting titles. Yes, the teams and kits may be updated, player ratings may be tweaked, and 4K beard follicles may now be visible in replays, but that’s usually your lot. Not so with 2K’s WWE series. Standing on the shoulders of WWE 2K22’s solid efforts, the...

Poll How Would You Rate The Last of Us Season One Finale?
The end
And that's it: after nine weeks of episodes, HBO's TV adaptation of The Last of Us has concluded its retelling of the PS3 game. A lot like the previous eight episodes, the finale remains faithful in many places but then deviates in others. We're sure fans will have their opinions on the way Joel and Ellie are captured by the Fireflies in the...

News The Last of Us 2 Will Be Split Across Two or More Seasons for TV Adaptation
Playing the long game
The Last of Us' HBO adaptation has just come to a close, with the final episode of the acclaimed first season having just aired. It's been warmly received, and with the viewing figures consistently high, it didn't take long for season two to get the green light

Preview Dead Island 2 Makes Up for Lost Time with Fun
Almost 3,652 Days Later
Pretty much no game ever is worth waiting almost 10 years for, but when Dead Island 2 launches on PS5 and PS4 next month, it'll at least deliver on the comedic fun its reveal trailer teased all the way back at E3 2014. Having been passed between three different developers over the past decade, it's difficult to work out where...

TV Show Review The Last of Us (HBO) Finale - A Highlight Reel of Your Favourite Story
Cutting to the chase
Well folks, we’re finally here. After nine episodes, we've reached the conclusion of HBO’s retelling of The Last of Us.

After last week's run-in with a very hungry group of survivors, Joel and Ellie make their way to the hospital to...

News The Witcher 3 PS5 Patch 4.02 Improves Performance, Fixes Bugs
Available now
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has had a rough ride so far on PS5. The current-gen edition of the beloved RPG has struggled with its performance in particular, and CD Projekt RED has been hard at work to get the game ship-shape. Now, patch 4.02 is available to download and install, weighing in at just over 2GB. As the official patch notes...

News UK Sales Charts: Hogwarts Legacy Immovable While Wo Long Falls 25 Places
Magic
It really does seem like nothing will topple Hogwarts Legacy for the time being. The game hasn't budged at all from its position atop the UK's physical chart, and it continues to sell the vast majority of its boxed copies on PS5 (83 per cent to be precise). While some big new release will likely come along to kill its combo, we imagine...

Review Mato Anomalies (PS5) - Surreal Turn-Based RPG Falls Flat
Neo-future Shanghai is about to explode
Mato Anomalies is a hodgepodge of ideas and motifs that works, for the most part, but suffers from trying to do too much with too little. It's aspirational, but the experience as a whole suffers from poor pacing and repetition, and comes off feeling like just another mediocre JRPG as a result, despite some...

News Sons of the Forest Success Rockets Predecessor to Top of European PS4 Charts
Yummy
Sons of the Forest is something of a phenomenon right now over on PC, selling more than $2 million copies in its first 24 hours on the market. A PlayStation iteration has yet to be announced but we imagine one has to be in the works if only by virtue of the popularity of its predecessor, 2018's cannibal-filled survival game, The Forest,...

Mini Review Unplugged: Air Guitar (PSVR2) - An Entertaining Rhythm Game, Warts and All
This game’s got the beat

With a core track list of 20 plus tracks from across the...

News Inventive Shooter Lemnis Gate the Latest Multiplayer Game Going Offline
Another one gone
Lately, we've seen a fair few announcements of multiplayer games shutting down servers in the near future. It's unfortunate, but enjoyable titles like Rumbleverse and Knockout City are only sticking around for a little while longer. The latest online multiplayer game going the same way is Lemnis Gate. The PS5 and PS4 first-person...

News PSVR2 Launch Game What the Bat Now Playable in Stationary Standing Mode
Roomscale requirement eliminated
We had quite a bit of fun with What the Bat, a silly PSVR2 launch title that's well worth a go. The biggest criticism we had of the game is that it would only let you play in Roomscale mode. Roomscale — which allows you to walk around in a defined space — requires at least two square metres of room, but the...
