Sucker Punch Productions has always been one of PlayStation studios’ lesser-appreciated dev teams, with the Washington-based company releasing some of the most underrated games over the past many generations – including the excellent InFamous series. The team finally received their well-deserved flowers with the release of Ghost of Tsushima back in 2020 for the PlayStation 4. With the title finally set to come to PC, I wish to share with you just some of the MANY reasons as to why even in 2024, Ghost of Tsushima just hits DIFFERENT.

Battlestate Games recently released the Unheard Edition of Escape From Tarkov, which is part of the newest patch. The edition brings a new PvE mode and other benefits. However, the hefty $250 price tag has left many fans dissatisfied.

With the rapid rate of technological progress over the decades, many older games no longer hold up to current day TVs and monitors both technically and technologically. In some instances, even modern systems are far behind the curve of video output, with a number of Nintendo Switch titles turning into a bit of a blurry/aliased mess when blown up on a big screen. This is where the mClassic comes in: a HDMI-based hardware upscaler offering “Real-Time Redrawing of Each and Every Pixel.”

Qualcomm has been gearing up for the launch of the Snapdragon Elite X processor for months now. Recently, KitGuru was invited to an event to preview to learn about the new Snapdragon X Plus, as well as get hands-on time with Snapdragon X-equipped laptops.

EKWB has been one of the biggest names in custom liquid cooling for many years, so it came as a surprise when news of internal troubles hit earlier this week. A report from Gamers Nexus found that EKWB has faced issues with payments and cross-department communications. Now, EKWB has responded with a lengthy statement.

After spending many years in development hell, Dead Island 2 finally released last year to a surprisingly positive reception. Unfortunately, for some, the game was not made available on Steam, instead being a timed Epic Games Store exclusive. Following the announcement back in February, Dead Island 2 is finally available on Steam.

KitGuru has been invited to Valencia, Spain, where AOC and Philips both announced a huge number of new monitors. We've already covered Graphic Pro, AOC's new series aimed at professional users, but here we are very much focused on gaming displays - from high-end OLEDs to budget VAs (and much more!) all on show...

KitGuru is out in Valencia, Spain, where AOC and Philips have just unveiled a whole bunch of new monitors. For the gamers out there, we will have a whole separate article detailing the latest and greatest, but first we need to discuss the new Graphic Pro series, AOC's first foray into the professional market...

We seem to be in a renaissance of sorts when it comes to video games being adapted into other media. Following the likes of HBO’s The Last of Us, Peacock’s Twisted Metal and the Gran Turismo film, Amazon Prime’s Fallout TV show has released to a wave of praise. It therefore comes as no surprise that a second season has now been officially confirmed.

Since 2018, Bethesda Game Studios has been quite transparent about its future development plans. At the time, the studio announced both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 in back to back reveals. Starfield just launched last year but it continuing to get updates and DLC. Meanwhile, work on The Elder Scrolls 6 is just ramping up, so where does that leave Fallout 5?

There have been a few PlayStation 5 Pro leaks recently. At this point, all signs are pointing to the upgraded console arriving later this year, featuring an overclocked CPU and a beefer GPU with greater ray-tracing abilities. Now, a new report has added to all of this, corroborating the specs, while also confirming game developer's plans to support the updated hardware. 

The Fallout series is experiencing a resurgence in its player base thanks to the popularity of the new TV series, combined with the fact that all of the Fallout games are currently on sale at discounted prices. Most of the Fallout games on Steam had their peak concurrent players quadruple in the last few days.

Many gamers are burnt out on Triple A gaming at the moment, in no small part thanks to increasing costs and monetisation schemes, not to mention the industry's obsession with 'live service'. Fortunately, there are many fantastic games coming out all the time from independent developers, but with thousands of games releasing on Steam each year, finding those gems can be a bit of a task. We've rounded up seven of our favourite upcoming indie titles, all of which received new trailers during the Triple-i showcase.

The Dead Space franchise has had a bit of a tough go. While the first game was well received, with many praising the game’s atmosphere and tone, its sequels saw increasingly reduced fanfare. After a decade of silence, EA returned last year with an equally well-received remake of the first entry. Unfortunately, it looks as though the franchise is dead once again.

After negative feedback from the initial reveal, Ubisoft took the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake back to the drawing board, starting from scratch to remake the remake...

Due to RTX 40 Super launching in early 2024, we were unsure if we would see new-gen gaming GPUs from Nvidia this year, and earlier rumours did point to an early 2025 launch, rather than the usual Q3/Q4 launch window. However, new reports citing board partner sources claim that Nvidia's first RTX 50 series GPUs will arrive later this year after all.

Over the past few months, new international laws and external pressure has forced Apple’s hand into relaxing many of its rules surrounding iOS and the Apple App Store. Between the addition of cloud streaming apps and the promised arrival of the Epic Games Store later this year, the iPhone creator has now started to allow game emulators to be added to the iOS App Store.

Nvidia's DLSS has been a game-changer for the last five years, boosting framerates on RTX-based systems with minimal image quality loss. With each update, DLSS continues improving, and the recent DLSS 3.7 upgrade is no exception.

First announced back in 2021, the much-anticipated Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake has suffered from a number of setbacks including a change in development studio, rumours of its cancellation and more. While the game was recently confirmed to be “alive and well” it seems as though Sony no longer have any interest in the project.

Back in February, we reported on the fact that a group of hackers managed to get the PSP emulator PPSSPP running on the streaming-focused PlayStation Portal peripheral. Unfortunately, the hackers who discovered the exploit have now helped Sony patch it.

While Embracer Group's CEO did not delight in taking on questions about the Knights of the Old Republic remake, Saber Interactive seems quite happy to discuss the project. The studio recently broke off from Embracer, going independent and taking the KOTOR remake project with it.

It seems Discord users will get their first taste of in-app ads this month..

Fast travel in games won’t be going away any time soon – and nor should it – but it is interesting to examine the varying ways that developers choose to implement the feature in their games; be it narratively, mechanically or functionally. Quite surprisingly, over the decades, studios have tackled this seemingly simple issue in MANY ways – for better and worse.

While we're still expecting new updates and DLC content for Starfield, Bethesda has begun moving resources around to focus on its next major project, The Elder Scrolls 6. The next Elder Scrolls game was announced all the way back in 2018, alongside Starfield, but work on the game is only really just getting underway now that Starfield has released.

Embracer Group has been undergoing a cost-cutting initiative over the past year, leading to several studio closures and layoffs. Other major companies under the Embracer banner have instead been sold. Earlier this month we saw Saber Interactive split off from its former parent company. Now, Gearbox Entertainment has also been sold. 

Earlier this week, new rumours surfaced suggesting that Xbox is working on a new gaming handheld to rival systems like the Steam Deck and Windows-based alternatives. Having been down this road before, I didn't put much stock in those rumours. However, a newly published interview with Phil Spencer is making the Xbox handheld seem inevitable. 

Following the overwhelming success of the Super Mario Bros. movie, Nintendo quickly greenlit an adaptation of The Legend of Zelda. Though the film is set to be live-action, the project’s director has expressed his hopes to “fulfil people’s greatest desires” with the project.

Late last year, Rockstar Games finally revealed the next entry in the industry-defining GTA series more than a decade after the last. Announced to be coming in 2025, it would appear as though Rockstar will need more time to get GTA VI out of the door – possibly a whole extra year.

Hardcore RPG mechanics are undermined at every turn by paid-for items that simply don't belong, bringing an end to Capcom's long-running streak of top-tier releases...
