As we enter the eighth month of the year, the gaming world looks just as volatile and unpredictable as it has done for the last couple of years. It’s almost impossible to predict which studio will be hit by layoffs or outright closures next, and whether certain studios will survive the year, even if they

The final month of this year’s summer is here, and with it comes Gamescom, a fairly major event in the calendar that sees many publishers and studios showing off their best work. Of course, there are still plenty of great games to look forward to this month; there may be shadowdrops (sudden releases) during Gamescom,

The summer winds on, and thankfully (or sadly, depending on your disposition), we haven’t had another whiff of the heatwaves that threatened to manifest throughout the season earlier this month. Of course, you didn’t come here to talk about the weather, as quintessentially British as that is; no, you came to hear about gaming news,

It’s been another eventful week in the world of gaming news, and while we’re anticipating an even more eventful one this coming week (Pokemon Presents, anyone?) there’s still plenty to pore over. Whether it’s fun stories about retired race horses, this month’s Game Pass lineup, or greenlit TV shows, the gaming news world is just

That’s right: before you’ve even realised it, another week has come and gone, and it’s once again time to take a look at what’s been going on in the world of gaming this week. Of course, if you’re in the UK, there’s a good chance you’ve been distracted by the ongoing heatwaves; to other countries,

The UK seems to be in the grip of multiple heatwaves right now; like the economy (oho, satire!), they’re advancing and receding with clockwork regularity. The world of gaming news is much the same; while there are days when not much happens, they’ll often be followed by flurries of activity, and it can be hard

After the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, you’d be forgiven for thinking that July looks like a quieter month for game releases. It turns out that the opposite is actually true; there’s so much good stuff coming out in July that we’re not even sure we’re going to get much of a chance to

Just when we thought the UK had escaped the worst (or best, depending on your perspective) of the hot weather this summer, another heatwave sweeps in and knocks everyone off their sun loungers. Well, the weather outside might be scorching, but we’ve got plenty of fresh gaming news from the week gone to take a

If you’re in the UK, then congratulations on having survived the summer’s first mini-heatwave! We’re sure there will be many more to come before September rolls around. As usual, though, we’re not here to talk about the weather. No, we’re here to recap what’s been happening in the gaming world over the past seven days,

Summer gaming season is officially over (at least until Gamescom lands in August), so we can all breathe a little bit easier, safe in the knowledge we’re not going to miss any seismically important announcements. Of course, that doesn’t mean there hasn’t been any news at all; as usual, the world of gaming has been

It’s summer show season in the gaming world, and so you can expect a slew of new announcements and updates on existing games this week. Regardless of the year, it’s never difficult to find someone who says shows from the likes of Xbox, PlayStation, and Devolver Digital were disappointing, but we think there’s plenty to

For some, this week marks the official beginning of summer; if you subscribe to the meteorological definition of the seasons, then June 1st is the start of what many consider to be their favourite season. We know, we know, we’re partial to starting off with a discussion of the weather, but what better way to
