Halloween feels like an especially appropriate time for Playable Archive's arrival. It's a genuinely spooky found-footage affair for one - a cleverly orchestrated 30-or-so minutes of scares from the developer of horror hit The Mortuary Assistant, released this week as a Halloween freebie. But more than that, the unusual tale of its creation is also one of death and resurrection. As its slightly cheeky title implies, Playable Archive (a riff on the legendary Playable Teaser created for Hideo Kojima's cancelled Silent Hill game) is a small slice of developer Brian Clarke's much larger cancelled Paranormal Activity game, making it a fascinating window into 'what could have been'. When I heard the news of its release, my curiosity was piqued, so I spoke with Clarke about this unexpected turn of events, of laying his project to rest, and how its legacy might live on - perhaps even as a new Mortuary Assistant game.

Final Fantasy 14's next expansion, Evercold, will launch on 23rd February 2027, and its second new job is zephyr, a physical ranged DPS that fights with a crossbow and a bird.

A former volunteer is threatening legal action against Skyblivion, the long-running fan remake of Oblivion built in Skyrim's engine, over code they contributed to the project.

It's those bloody typewriters all over again. Developer Wych Elm Games' Silver Pines is fantastic in a whole bunch of ways, from its woozy small-town ambience to its mix of taut survival horror and exploratory Metroidvania. But from the very first moment I saw its save system, its please-insert-coin phone box demands, I knew our relationship was going to be a fractious one.

Happy Halloween! Are you scared? I am: I'm in a theatre play that opens next week and we're not ready yet. I'm also off to a ghost stories evening at the theatre tonight; I've had a few people there tell me, with faces as straight as a ruler, of their eerie encounters. Actually, one encounter involved me.

Yacht Club Games has confirmed that most of its developers are now working on a brand new 3D game (potentially Shovel Knight 3D), after the critically-acclaimed Mina the Hollower did well enough for the team to continue.

After more than two decades dominating the PC MMO battlefield, it sounds like Blizzard Entertainment's taking the idea of a World of Warcraft console port more seriously than ever.

I've been captivated by the idea of wrong-footing an audience ever since playing Faith: The Unholy Trinity. That game presents like an 8-bit horror, then proceeds to bend the rules of what an 8-bit game can do - or perhaps what you remember they could do - in order to surprise and scare you. Tenebris Somnia is very similar. Indeed, it's executive produced by the developer of Faith, Airdorf Games, so the connection runs even deeper. Tenebris Somnia utilises the same retro aesthetic with its grinding chiptune music, its pixelated graphics, and old-school presentation. But the difference is it takes the rule-bending a step further, essentially welding two very different experiences together: a retro-styled 2D adventure and a full-on live-action film. And it's horrific, in all the right ways.

Crimson Desert is one of 2026's most successful releases. The game managed to sell over 6 million copies in just three months, and ended up being so profitable that its publisher ended up giving each employee at development studio Pearl Abyss a $3,400 bonus. Since launch, the dev has been committed to improving the game and correcting some of the more egregious issues that were present at launch.

A new report has revealed that EA closed BioWare because it was forced to choose between investing in one of two sci-fi projects: a new Mass Effect game or a new Star Wars Battlefront game. And it chose the latter.

Dan Greenawalt, director, founder, and vice president at Turn 10 Games, has departed from the studio after spending 27 years as part of the company. This comes as Turn 10 is merged with Playground Games as part of Xbox's mass restructuring initiative that made headlines as it resulted in 3200 layoffs and four studio closures earlier this year.

Sony has snatched up the movie rights for Mouthwashing, the hit independent horror video game released in 2024.

As I'm sure you're all now already aware, legendary British actor Sir Patrick Stewart has died, aged 86. His Instagram account announced the news yesterday, saying he died at home in Los Angeles surrounded by friends and family, following "a brief and poignant journey with Alzheimer's Disease and Lewy Body Dementia".

Yesterday, Ubisoft issued a statement about the future of the Assassin's Creed series, and the publisher's comments included quite a big surprise: there are currently no new remakes of the series' past games in the works.

Bethesda's hugely anticipated and long-awaited fantasy role-playing game The Elder Scrolls 6 could be revealed "as soon as next month", a new report has claimed - right in the midst of Microsoft's ongoing restructuring efforts.

Celeste and TowerFall have both been delisted from Xbox suddenly earlier this week. Per a post on Bluesky, developer Maddy Thorson says this was an intentional move, with the games being removed from sale on Xbox in support of the BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement, which is aimed at protesting various companies linked to, or supporting, Israel's government during the genocide in Palestine.

FromSoftware's The Duskbloods - a game that is best described as Bloodborne meets Sekiro meets Dark Souls, with jetpacks and dinos thrown in - has been delayed from its 2026 launch window into an unspecified time in 2027.

Last week, EA announced it's laying off 400 workers across multiple studios, cancelling projects and refocusing on its biggest money-makers. As part of that, EA closed down the iconic BioWare studio, letting go of most of its remaining staff of around 50 people.

It's easy to dislike Call of Duty. Aside from the annual cycle of development, marketing, and controversy that has defined the series identity for the past 22 years, the series has become an integral part of how video games prop up the military-industrial complex. Whilst some of the stories - especially 2025's Black Ops 7 - have deteriorated into the realms of science-fiction absurdity, many of the narratives you'll find in the Modern Warfare splinter of the series are more grounded in reality. When you're playing as semi-fictional UK and US troopers, taking part in illegal operations in foreign territory, wantonly executing people over differences in ideology, Call of Duty can feel gross: paper-thin propaganda designed to glorify war and reinforce lines between 'them' and 'us'.

A mutilated man stares at you, his single piercing eye following as you move around the room. His filthy bandages hide a ruined face, raw lips circling disturbingly perfect teeth, and his moans echo through the halls. But that eye: it knows something you don't. At least not yet.

Welcome back, Football Manager. I've only played half a day or so of it, whistling through my inductions, board meetings and opening transfer window, but already the positive signs are there. Football Manager 27 is a big, much-appreciated step in the right direction. In a way it's a step back - this is essentially the game I wish FM26 had been - but sometimes that's necessary. One back, two forward. At least it's genuine progress. This is a Football Manager game again.

The World of Warcraft team has found itself at the centre of controversy after recently-added housing cosmetics appeared to go against previous pledges not to sell decorations tied to the visual identity of the game's races and factions.
