It’s fair to say that mid-to-late November feels very much like the lead-up to The Game Awards, a major ceremony that takes place in December each year. At The Game Awards, not only are the most exceptional games of their respective year recognised and lauded, but new game announcements are made as well, making it

It’s time once again to step into the time machine we conveniently keep around here to take another look at the gaming news that’s happened in the week that’s just gone by. As we’ve said before, the weeks prior to December’s Game Awards are often fairly quiet, but that doesn’t mean nothing’s happening; it just

If you’re based in the US, you’ve probably already begun your countdown to Thanksgiving, which falls on the fourth Thursday of November each year.  You may or may not also be processing some feelings about this year’s US election, but either way, we welcome you to join us as we take another look at what’s

With Halloween well and truly behind us, we now look ahead to Christmas, and, more importantly (from the gaming calendar’s perspective, at least), to the Game Awards. Generally speaking, if companies have big announcements to make, those announcements will be made at big events; think Gamescom, the Summer Game Fest shows, and the Game Awards,

Traditionally speaking, we’re in the middle of the period when the biggest games are released, and November 2024 has more than its fair share of major games for you to check out. It’s not just the usual triple-A fare, though; there are lots of smaller indie games for you to take a look at as

Halloween is just a few exciting days away, and after that, the long march to Christmas begins, so there’s plenty to look forward to in the regular calendar. What about the world of gaming news, though? Well, this week has been a relatively quiet one; there haven’t been too many earth-shattering revelations in the gaming

Another week has gone by, and as usual, there’s plenty to be talking about in the gaming space, both good and bad. Xbox held a major presentation at which several new games and release dates were announced this week, and much more has been going on besides, so you won’t be short of talking points.

It’s time once again to step back into our very specific time machine, which only allows us to travel a week back into the past, and take a look at the week’s gaming news. You might ask why we’re not using our time machine for more morally defensible ends, and I would reply that unfortunately,

Major gaming event season is now officially over, and the temperatures are really starting to draw in, so you know what that means: it’s autumn at last. Of course, just because there aren’t any big shows to look forward to doesn’t mean that there’s nothing happening in the world of gaming. Far from it, in

Spooky season is well and truly getting underway now, and we’re about to hit the peak month for spooky shenanigans, which means you’d expect a ton of horror games to be imminent. Well, there may be one or two creepy experiences to enjoy while you’re wrapped up in a blanket with some hot chocolate, but

It’s been another eventful week for the gaming world, although since so much is going on inside the industry on a daily basis, that’s almost unnecessary to say. Still, this week we’ve seen the release of a brand new Nintendo tentpole game, as well as delays, new sequel announcements, and more besides. Pull up a

In the grand tradition of starting these roundups by talking about the weather, it’s been a rather wet and miserable end to the week, especially after a brief Indian summer. Thankfully, we’re here with our weekly gaming news summary, so you can grab a hot drink and a blanket and read through what’s been happening
