ConsoleNew Switch 2 games Splatoon Raiders and Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave age-rated in Europe
Once Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream and Yoshi and the Mysterious Book are out later this week and next month, Nintendo's first-party roadmap is a bit of a mystery. But now two PEGI age ratings for Europe have offered a clue at what may be coming next. Read more
MobileBlack & White at 25: how Lionhead's harebrained, stoner-powered game design became the harbinger of modern AI
Your disembodied hand trembles with raw power. It can raze forests, summon storms, and dedicate villagers to single tasks for their entirety of their humble lives: fishing, for example, or the most profound act of all - procreation (fine, shagging). But in Black & White, which recently turned 25-years-old, your divine command of mind and matter does not extend to the capricious creature roaming the grassy land below. This pesky being may be your godly will made flesh, but they're liable to disse
MobileFollowing mass layoffs, Epic are reportedly putting their hopes on a Disney extraction shooter
I do not like the combination of the words "Epic Games," "Disney," and "extraction shooter," yet write them I must. That's because of a new report from Bloomberg (paywalled), which digs into some of the issues the Fortnite developer has been facing in recent years with the popular battle royale, and the hopes the company is pinning on its Disney deal.

Redeem CodeWhat are we all playing this weekend?
After months of pleading for the sun to show its face, I'm actually feeling quite warm now. Potentially, I'd go so far as to say I'm too toasty. I'm not saying I'm looking forward to winter. But I'm not not saying it. Read more
MobileBaldur's Gate 3's second act should get a playable new region this year, assuming this custom campaign mod doesn't hit any more roadblocks
The world certainly isn't short of ambitious Baldur's Gate 3 custom campaign mods to keep track of, and one looking to substantially expand the base game's second act has shared another progress update. Having been delayed from 2025 into 2026, its creator's still aiming to release a playable version by the end of this year, but has now admitted that's unlikely to happen in the first half of the calendar, as they'd originally hoped. Despite that, they've released a fresh trailer and said developm
PCRoad to Vostok's hot start on Steam has "secured the entire production budget" the Finnish survival shooter needs for "years to come", dev says
As noted in this week's Maw, the burgeoning genre of survival shooters which involve a lot of crouch-walking in fields got a new addition on Tuesday. Road to Vostok, a single player Tarkov-ish field-croucher solo developed by an ex-Finnish army officer arrived in early access following some popular demos. According to that former armyman, the early returns on its release have already helped set up the cash reserves its development will need for "years to come". Read more
MobileFrostpunk 2's next bit of DLC literally turns up the heat with yet another environmental disaster to deal with: volcanoes
Frostpunk 2 is, by its very name, a cold game. That's its whole shtick, that the world is covered by an apocalyptic blizzard, and it's on you to figure out how to keep your city running amongst the harsh conditions. This includes keeping everyone warm, so it does tickle me that the game's next bit of DLC, revealed to be titled Breach of Trust, essentially says "no, not that warm." Read more
ConsoleBeyond Words is Scrabble meets Balatro, and it's left me feeling like I've gone ten rounds with a dictionary
Aiming to do for Scrabble what Balatro did for poker, Beyond Words gives you the same framework of a rack of tiles and a board upon which to make words, and also a set of ridiculous power cards that see your scores explode with each passing turn. As someone who has survived more than three decades of family holidays dominated by word games, I thought I would be more than ready to take on Beyond Words. I was sorely mistaken. Read more
PCPillars of Eternity's turn-based mode is finally out in full, and Obsidian have also kindly turned off the invisible treadmills
Pillars of Eternity has finally gotten its tenth anniversary gift. Obsidian have been busy beta testing a turn-based mode for the RPG since November last year, and this week's seen them properly whip the cover off it before shouting 'ta-dahhhhhhh'. Read more
Redeem CodeThis week in PC games: gritty GTA 4-coded brawler Samson, Ancient Greek bull defender Minos, and a wobbly violinist battles some stairs
Didn't expect to see me here, did you? Well, as always there's a new - if slightly abbreviated - week of PC games to dissect. Edwin's away travelling the world and hopefully encountering some tolerable bed and breakfasts, so I've popped in to see what sorts of stuff we can stick in the Maw in order to keep it happy for the next few days. Wish me luck! Read more
Mobile"Keeping teams together doesn't seem to matter to people, but for us it did": Star Wars Zero Company's director on what the industry can learn from XCOM 2
It seems that every week we're reporting on news of another wave of layoffs at a big game studio. In March alone, we saw 1000 staff let go at Epic Games, 124 at Eidos Montreal, and over 100 at Ubisoft's Red Storm Entertainment. And those are just the ones I can name without needing to rack my brain. In some cases, these "reorganisations" are to keep investors happy, in others they're painted as necessary for a studio to keep the lights on until its next paycheck. But every time a team loses memb
