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, the machine doesn’t allow us to interfere, only to observe.

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 fact; there’s plenty going on to pore over if you’re a news fanatic. Without further ado, then, let’s have a look at what’s been happening this week in the gaming world!

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.

Pull up a chair and join us as we take another expedition through a week of gaming news. Hopefully, it won’t all be as glum as the real news has been over the past few weeks.

If you’re a full-blooded advocate of spooky season, you’ll no doubt be delighted with the changing of the seasons, but if you prefer things to be warmer, you’re likely in a bit of a bad mood nowadays.

As the Gamescom dust settles and the gaming world returns to normal (until the major AAA releases of the autumn, anyway), September is often a month to reflect and catch up on the backlog.

August is, generally speaking, the final month during which you can expect hot weather to grace the UK. From September onwards, things start to cool down a little, autumn kicks in, and the gaming release schedule ramps up as well, bringing major AAA releases and indie darlings to tide us over during the cold and cruel winter. That’s not to say there’s nothing to play in August, of course; if you’re the kind of person who prefers to spend their summer indoors playing video games (as we are), then you’re well-served by this month’s release schedule. Let’s take a look…
