The guy from The Walking Dead has a baby in a tube and has to deliver parcels on what looks like Mars. There was some sort of apocalyptic event, everyone sounds like they’ve been named by a seven-year-old, and the guy who came up with these ideas is apparently a visionary genius. That’s about as far as my rudimentary understanding ofDeath Strandinggoes. But like, what do you do? I have absolutely no idea....
I only realised how big theSecretlab Magnus Pro XLis when the box arrived at my front door. It took two delivery men to drag it into my hallway, where they promptly left it for me to figure out how to move up two flights of stairs. First, I had to unpack it. The 1.8m-long desk is safely packaged, ensuring no damage or dents leave impact craters in the steel worktop while en route to your home....
The video game world is filled withtitles that pit you against robots, but mechanical beings don’t have to be your enemy. Many games have proved this by including robot companions. These metal creatures serve as your friends throughout whatever adventure you’re on. They can provide help in combat, technical expertise, or simply add a bit more personality to your team. Some of the best ones do all three of these things and are the highlights of their respective games....

This article contains spoilers for KPop Demon Hunters and the first Mistborn trilogy. Look, I knowKPop Demon Huntersprobably wasn’t inspired by Mistborn. If someone was looking to compare the hitNetflixanimated film to one of fantasy author Brandon Sanderson’s works, the Asian-inspired Yumi and the Nightmare Painter would be the low-hanging fruit. It similarly features a young woman on a divine mission that she accomplishes through her art, whose life is controlled by a female mentor figure, and whose normal life threatens to fall apart when she becomes entwined with a young man with a similar, yet distinct, supernatural mission....

Both of the core characters are celebrating milestone anniversaries in 2025, and TheGamer can exclusively reveal a very special collection Loungefly has put together to celebrate.

Summary Marvel Rivalsis a pretty complex (and also pretty buggy) game that changes almost constantly, which means new techs are being found on an almost weekly basis, whether it be flying Wolverine, or something as recent asWanda’s ult being hidden in fog. You’ll see fans come up with some pretty wild strategies fairly often, but a newly discovered tech for Doctor Strange and Loki might be one of the most devious yet....
Summary TheMetroid Prime 4: Beyondsagamayfinally be coming to a close. The game wasrevealed all the way back in 2017, over eight years ago, but a tumultuous development cycle meantit was rebooted in 2019, with Retro Studios taking charge. It then went radio silent for five years, before beingrevealed in its current format in June last year. At that point, Nintendo confirmed the game was scheduled for release in 2025.

Monster Hunter Wilds’fall from grace has been spectacular, if not a little sad. Ahead of its launch, the game’s first betapulled in staggering numbers, and, despite somepretty hefty performance issues, that momentum continued into Wilds' launch day, with the gamebreaking Steam’s top ten in under an hour, and seeingwell over one million concurrent players on the platform, becoming one of the most-played games of all time.

IfMario Kart WorldandDonkey Kong Bananzaisn’t enough for you, theNintendo Switch 2’sthird-party lineupmight just change your mind. WithElden Ring: Tarnished Editionand Cyberpunk 2077 leading the pack, Nintendo made sure everyone knows just how powerful its next-gen console is. However, while we have a number of games to look forward to in the short run, it seems that the flow of third-party games and ports may soon dry up. Getting popular triple-A games onto the console is undoubtedly one of the company’s biggest goals, but according to trusted sourceNate the Hate, it might be a while before we see more publishers announce their games for the Switch 2....
TheNintendo SwitcheShopsucked for a very long time. For the console’s entire lifecycle, it was a slow and laborious means of purchasing digital games that I’d only touch if I had to. I don’t enjoy navigating it, since at any moment it feels like a digital peddler will appear to try and sell me something untoward. Nothing about it feels as polished or refined as it should. So, when theNintendo Switch 2was released last month, and suddenly it was a breeze to jump into and browse, it felt like a revelation....

If your Pokemon has ever hit itself in Confusion three times in a row, or you’ve let a Legendary Pokemon Struggle itself to death, know you’re not alone....
I’ve been a season ticket holder for theHalf-Life 3copium train since I was a kid. I rolled credits on Episode Two when I was only seven years old, and even remember turning to my dad and saying something soul-crushing like, ‘I can’t wait to see what happens next.’ I’m sorry to the Half-Life community, but I might’ve jinxed us. What came next was an unhealthy obsession spanning decades, as I, like so many others, pored over every single leak, datamine, and interview, hoping for just a crumb....
