'Tis the season for these sorts of things to start showing up, so it's timely enough that TheGameCollection has launched its Easter Sale today, shortly after Amazon's own easter sale has begun. Featuring a whole batch of discounts across all formats, the Easter Sale range is live now and finishes up on Thursday 5th April. Among the listings, some of the highlights include the brand new Final Fantasy 15 Royal Edition on both PS4 and Xbox for under £20, Destiny 2 for £12, Call of Duty WW2 for £29.95, Gran Turismo Sport for under £20, the limited edition Minecraft Creeper Xbox One controller for £40, Homefront: The Revolution for under £4, Injustice 2 on PS4 for only £15, Metal Gear Survive for £15 and much more.

Battletech launches on 24th April 2018, publisher Paradox has announced. The turn-based tactical mech combat PC game is developed by Harebrained Schemes, the studio behind the Shadowrun Returns series. Harebrained Schemes raised an impressive $2.8m on Kickstarter from just over 41,000 backers back in November 2015. Two-and-a-half years later, Battletech is nearly ready for launch. Here's the official blurb: Read more…

It's really been far too long since we last saw a neo-Mexican space punk racing game, hasn't it? I've certainly been waiting a fair while for one, which makes the arrival of Yucatan's demo earlier this month such a pleasant surprise; this ticks all the right boxes. The work of developer Joe Bain - with a little help from his friends - Yucatan plays like a tequilla-soaked Trackmania (and there's probably a fair dose of peyote included in that cocktail, too), a psychedelic racer that pits your gloriously proportioned ride against a series of impossibly cruel tracks. Dig down into the detail and there's a lot to like. The drifting feels fantastic, a dedicated button enabling long, lurid slides in which your softly sprung car looks like it's about to dance out of control, but which in the hand feels brilliantly pliable. The tracks, from what's in the demo, have some real teeth, featuring deathly obstacles and layouts that ask for a little reserve with th...

Today, Bungie pushes out a big new update for Destiny 2 designed to make the game feel a lot faster to play. Patch 1.1.4., dubbed the "Go Fast" update, has been long-awaited by Destiny 2 players, many of whom have reckon the game, particularly in competitive multiplayer, has felt too slow and lacked excitement. In the video below, sandbox design lead Josh Hamrick said Bungie looked at everything from the way player characters move to the way supers come back, as well as a balance pass on weapons. Instead of nerfing "hot" guns, Bungie decided to bring everything else up to those "hot" guns, which should make for plenty of high damage carnage. Read more…

Using offensive language on Xbox Live - as if! - Skype or even in shared Word documents may get you into trouble with Microsoft's newly updated Code of Conduct. And if you get into trouble you could face suspensions or bans, have Xbox Live Gold membership time revoked or even lose money associated with the account. If Microsoft investigates you it reserves the right to "review Your Content in order to resolve the issue", too - which sounds a lot like 'dig through your personal data' to me. The Microsoft Service Agreement changes come into effect 1st May 2018, so you'd better get those swear words out of the way now, you silly old s**tbags. Read more…

Rare has ditched plans to implement a penalty upon dying in Sea of Thieves. Last week Rare mentioned the idea in a blog post filled with upcoming features headed to the game - but it drew questions and ire from fans. Rare later said the feature would not penalise players killed by other players - before now saying it had dropped the idea completely. Read more…

For a very limited time (just over a day and a half at the time of writing), PC owners are able to snag a free copy of what I, personally, would deem one of the most overlooked games of the last few years - The Darkness 2 . Head over to Humble today and you can claim a free copy of the 2012 paranormal mafia shooter for absolutely nothing. Your game will be delivered as a Steam key and is compatible with PC or Mac. For those unlucky enough to have not played The Darkness 2 when it launched, the game tells the story of Jackie Estacado, head of a brutal New York crime syndicate who also happens to be host to a ruthless demonic force known only as The Darkness. This means that in addition to battling rival mob bosses and his own personal struggles, he also has to quite literally battle for control of his own body. Read more…

Put down the controller and close your eyes: there is no better game on earth to listen to. What do I hear? The creak of timbers, the flap of a sail, the thud and shudder and boom of the ocean. So many of my very favourite things in Sea of Thieves are sounds. There's the wonderful snug internal clonk of the ship's wheel settling back into its full-ahead position (so subtle you have to really listen for it; at times I think I am imagining the whole thing). There's the strained, buckling groan of your hull reacting to a dropped anchor when it still has sails filled with wind. Best of all there's the neat, arresting, confirmative thwack of a shovel digging into sand and hitting - something! Something good! A treasure chest! Clonk, groan, thwack. This is a game you play with your ears as much as your eyes, and while your eyes get the glorious rolling, thrashing drama of the waters to look at, your ears get so much else besides. Your ears get the detailing that really...

Developer SeithCG has released a massive new update for its delightful mouse-based RPG Ghost of a Tale, aimed at quashing the "vast majority" of its remaining technical issues. Eurogamer liked Ghost of a Tale enough to give it the Recommended stamp of approval when it released earlier this month on PC; however, reviewer Edwin Evans-Thirlwell noted that it was "absolutely riddled with bugs". SeithCG has been more than open in acknowledging the game's launch problems, and has already released a number of updates to address them. The developer says its latest patch, known as 6.5, "takes care of the vast majority of the remaining bugs", admitting that "it's been a very intense period, with a lot of work and very little sleep." Read more…

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has received its latest test server update, introducing new weapon skins and accompanying loot crates, as well as bringing the news that developer Bluehole is "considering" region-locked servers. Region-locked servers are a long-requested feature, with proponents frequently citing anti-cheat company BattleEye's claims that "the vast majority" of PUBG cheaters are from China. According to Bluehole, however, it's decision to investigate region-locking isn't related to cheating; rather, it hopes that that the move will "provide a better gameplay experience as it will improve network issues and help with linguistic barriers."

Deadly Premonition director Hidetaka "Swery" Suehiro and Panzer Dragoon's Yukio Futatsugi have launched their second attempt at securing backer funding for The Good Life, an intriguing open-world murder mystery game set in an idyllic English village. The original pitch failed to secure funding , but the team hopes its new campaign, which includes a more detailed design proposal, a new art style and a smaller funding goal, will capture the imagination of Kickstarter backers this time around. The amount of money required to fund the campaign - which is now live - drops from $1.5 million to $650,000. It's also shifted from the investment-oriented service Fig to Kickstarter as its crowdfunding platform of choice. Read more…

Update, 26/3/18: Rare has announced that its Sea of Thieves-inspired hunt for four golden bananas is now officially over, with the winning crew named as 'Herr Crew' from France. More than 10,000 players apparently signed up to take part, vying for the 18-carat, £80,000 prize. Once the deadline to solve the 15 competition questions passed, five teams were invited to attempt an “ultimate test” - SwashBuckleys from Australia, Die Germans from Germany, The boys from Canada, and Fun Brigade from the USA. The teams that failed to secure the four golden bananas will each receive engraved golden “doubloons”, valued at £300. Original story, 11/3/18: Rare is ushering in Sea of Thieves' launch on March 20th with a "digital treasure hunt" to win a bunch of golden bananas valued at £80,000. Read more…

Xbox Game Pass will add Cities: Skylines to its line-up next month. The sandbox city sim is set to become part of the Xbox Games Pass catalogue on 11th April, alongside seven other games - all of which are indies. It's good timing for Cities: Skylines, which recently added mods to its Xbox One edition designed by community members. Read more…

As we slip ever closer to Easter sales that might actually coincide with Easter itself, Amazon's latest offering is a big batch of discounts on 4K TVs - as well as the non-4K kind. The aptly titled Easter TV Deals range is live now and features up to 35 per cent off a bunch of sets of varying sizes and brands, including some of those fancy and extra pricey OLED sets. In addition to the range itself, there will be a selected few TVs seeing big discounts each day as 'TV deals of the day' while the offer is live. To highlight a few, you'll be able to find a 43-inch LG HDR-enabled LED TV for £419, down from its original £641, a 49-inch Toshiba 4K set for £349, a 43-inch Sony Bravia 4K TV with an Amazon Echo Dot thrown in for £538, and a whole lot more.

Pokémon Go will introduce Mew, its first Mythical Pokémon, via an all-new quests system. Daily quests will see you collecting Field Research by undertaking regular activities within the game - catching Pokémon, winning gym battles and defeating raid bosses. Seven days' worth of daily quests will then unlock a Research Breakthrough, which offers in-game rewards. These in-game rewards include items (Rare Candy, TMs and the like) as well as the chance to catch Pokémon - including Legendary Pokémon. Read more…

Update: Stock of the games seem to be going in and out, which can make it harder to claim this deal with everything in the basket. As an alternative, you can add an Xbox One X to your basket along with The Evil Within 2, Wolfenstein 2 and an extra controller and your total will come out to £436 . Original story: Fancy picking up a big, shiny 4K box with which to play all those 4K video games you've heard so much about? You can get yourself a bit of a steal of a bundle right now by heading to Tesco Direct today. There, you'll find the Xbox One X priced up at its regular £449, albeit with free click and collect if you fancy it. Look closer, however, and you'll see that you can add six games and an extra controller to your basket and the whole lot will be added for free on top of the price of the console. Read more…

Two weeks ago, Fornite earned Twitch its biggest ever audience - 635,000 people - when Canadian rapper Drake played alongside streamer Ninja. Last night, Fortnite attracted nearly double that number watching live on YouTube as 100 top streamers battled it out. It was billed as a Spanish-language stream extravaganza, filled with popular YouTubers who then broadcast it via their own channels. Read more…

You can kick off a spectacular set piece pretty much anywhere in Far Cry 5. All you need do is stand in the road. Give it 60 seconds, and - yes, there it is, a van full of hostages, cruising around unescorted, the lowest of low-hanging fruit. You pour hot lead into the windshield until the driver flops out of his seat like a spent shell casing, then follow the vehicle off-road and help its dazed occupants to safety. One grateful civilian waves you over, a side quest icon materialising over his head. "Wh-" he says, and is promptly swept off his feet by a speeding pick-up truck. The truck screeches to a halt and a huge, tattooed lady with a light machinegun climbs out, only to be set upon by the cougar you didn't notice lurking near the treeline. Your AI companion blasts the cougar with incendiary buckshot, setting it on fire; the cougar charges into your AI companion, setting him on fire; everybody runs in circles, yelling at each other, until a plane soars over a hills...

A new Avoid as Teammate option is coming to Overwatch "as soon as possible", finally giving us some immediate power to prevent other people ruining our fun. Maybe you're grouped with a tyrant, maybe you're grouped with someone deliberately working against the team and throwing the match, or maybe you're simply partnered with a pratt. Previously all you could do was report them, if you felt it was a reportable offence, and hope the game didn't group you with them again. But soon you will be able to directly affect the matchmaking process. To begin with, you will be able to set up to two players as 'Avoid as Teammate'. You'll be able to select this by clicking on their name in chat or finding them in social menus on console. When you've avoided them, they'll be avoided for seven days. After that period you can re-avoid them if you wish. Read more…

Rare's done it - Sea of Thieves has topped the UK games chart in a busy week for new releases. Impressively, the PC and Xbox One pirate simulator hit number one just on Xbox One boxed copies alone. (UK numbers company Chart-Track does not count digital sales on PC or Xbox.) And, of course, those sales do not count anyone playing the game using the cheapest option - via Microsoft's £7.99 per month Xbox Games Pass subscription, which Sea of Thieves is part of. Read more…

Late Fiorentina captain and Italian international Davide Astori will remain in FIFA 18, EA has confirmed. A message displayed to players upon logging into the game reveals EA took the decision at the request of the club. However, EA has pulled Astori FIFA Ultimate Team items from packs. Read more…

It is a question that has echoed down the ages ever since Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo strapped on metal jump-boots for Super Mario Bros in May 1993: will there ever be a good video game movie? The short but dispiriting history of gaming IP being repurposed for the big screen is like a high-score table filled entirely with clunkers, from the cheeseball flexing of Van Damme in Street Fighter to the constipated gothic grimace of Marky Mark's Max Payne. To make things worse, the whole sub-genre will forever be dragged down by slapdash cash-in king Uwe Boll and his unforgivably amateurish efforts at adapting games like Alone in the Dark, BloodRayne and Far Cry. (Not even the mighty Jason Statham as a hardnut ploughman could salvage Boll's aggressively banal medieval epic In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale.) Some of these early disasters could be written off as the growing pains of working out how best to combine the strengths of two similar but divergent art forms. B...

Ninja Theory's critically acclaimed action game and study of psychosis, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, is heading to Xbox. It had only previously been available on PC and PS4. And there isn't long to wait: Hellblade will be released on Xbox 11th April. Hellblade will also be enhanced for Xbox One X, and offer three performance modes. Enhanced Visuals will add unspecified extra effects and visual quality; High Framerate will run the game at 60 frames per second; and High Resolution will aim for 4K resolution with dynamic scaling. HDR is supported as standard on both Xbox One and X, apparently. Read more…

Editor's note: Once a month we're graced with the brilliant presence of Gareth Damian Martin, author of the zine Heterotopias , creator of upcoming game In Other Waters and, most recently, author of The Continuous City, a book of analogue photography of video games, which is now available for pre-order. Over the past few months leading up to the games release, there's been a strange sense that Far Cry 5's choice of a US setting means that the now venerable series is 'coming home'. It's something I've seen echoed in the coverage of the game, which is especially strange considering that the series was created in Germany, and originally set in Micronesia, and now sits in the hands of Ubisoft Montreal - the Canadian arm of a French company. How is it that a series defined by a surprisingly diverse set of landscapes, inspired by everything from the South pacific to Nepal could be 'coming home' to the wide-spaces and small-towns of Montana? Perhaps...

Quite a week it's been. Sea of Thieves is finally out, we had yet another Nintendo Direct and, to top it all off, we've got a fancy new site that you're reading this on. Anyway, it's the weekend yet again, which means I'm back with another roundup of the week's best deals from the realms of games, tech, and more. As usual, we've got deals that'll work in the UK, deals that'll work in the US and some deals that will work in both the UK and US, as well as presumably many other places. Let's get started. In case you missed it, SteelSeries has partnered up with Jelly Deals to give away a big box of PC accessories worth over £380. To be in with a chance of winning, head to the link below and you can enter. Read more…

Sea of Thieves offers players a vibrant, cartoon world of stories big and small - but perhaps none of them are as significant as the tale of developer Rare itself. It's hard to believe that Kinect projects aside, it's been over nine years since we last saw a full game from the studio. Much has changed since then, with the studio's reliance on custom, per-game engines replaced by a shift towards Unreal Engine 4. But this game is a title quite unlike any other built on the Epic middleware - Sea of Thieves is beautiful and unique. From the moment you first begin your adventure it's clear that Rare's latest has a lot to offer visually. With its vast oceans, gorgeous cloud simulation and richly detailed islands, it's an attractive game and it feels like the pre-release media never quite captured its essence. Its open world is hand-built but its rendering is dictated by procedurals to a large extent, from the dynamic time of day transitions and the often dramatic we...

Over the last couple of months I've been falling in love all over again with Final Fantasy XII. I know I'm late to the Zodiac Age party, but I've been marvelling at how much this game has come into its own since its original release back in 2006. Certainly the remaster's smoothing-off of the original's (literal) rough edges helps, but I'm not the first to observe that it feels a bit like gaming has caught up with some of its ideas that weren't fully appreciated at the time like its distinctive automated battles. Or maybe it's just that I'm in a different place in my life, and FF12's peculiarly hands-off approach to monster hunting fits so much better into what a 30-something wants after a day at work than it did the long holidays of a student with time on his hands. Its idiosyncratic systems are what FF12 is best known for, but they're not the only thing that's distinctive about it. Let's talk about that setting and art direction. W...

Q-Games has announced that a sequel to its beloved tower defence classic PixelJunk Monsters will arrive on PC, PS4, and Switch on May 25th, over a decade after the original's release. The first PixelJunk Monsters launched in 2007, and the PixelJunk series has gone from strength to strength since then, tackling all sorts of genres in games like PixelJunk Shooter and PixelJunk SideScroller. Q-Games even made a music visualiser with the recent PixelJunk 4am. Based on the announcement trailer though, PixelJunk Monsters 2 is an even bigger evolution for the series, particularly in terms of presentation. PixelJunk Monsters 2 is absolutely gorgeous, sporting a wonderfully vibrant, pseudo-handcrafted look. Read more…

Nightdive Studios, the team behind the highly anticipated System Shock remaster, has offered further insight into where the project went wrong in the run-up to its recent development hiatus, and offered a speculative new release date as production resumes. In its original guise, Nightdive's System Shock was intended to be a remaster of Looking Glass Technologies' classic first-person sci-fi horror. However, the project quickly ballooned in scope, and was already being referred to as a "reboot" by the time its Kickstarter commenced in July 2016. In February this year, despite having raised $1,350,700 USD in backer money, Nightdive announced that it was putting the project on "hiatus" after letting "things get out of control". Now, having had time to reflect and regroup, Nightdive CEO Stephen Kick and business development director Larry Kuperman have spoken to PC Gamer at this week's GDC , offering more details on what went wrong, and how it ...

Oxenfree developer Night School Studio has offered the first proper look, via a new teaser trailer, at its upcoming boozy-night-in-hell adventure Afterparty. Afterparty, which was unveiled late last year, sees you taking on the roles of Milo and Lola, two recently deceased best friends who find themselves facing an eternity in Hell. It turns out, however, that there's a loophole: anyone that can outdrink Satan can earn re-entry to the land of the living. And so begins something close to a boozy road trip, a night of debauched pub crawling along the River Styx. Read more…

Rare studio head Craig Duncan is proud of the work his team did for Kinect, and speaking to IGN, he highlighted the studio's desire to take on the unique challenges the technology presented, as well as the cool things Rare was able to accomplish with Kinect Sports. "Everything I've ever done, I've learned... and I think Kinect is the ultimate kind of version of that," Duncan said on the latest episode of our monthly interview show  IGN Unfiltered . He highlighted the challenge in developing games for a controller that uses an entirely different form of input and how that type of challenge appeals to Rare's sensibilities. Continue reading…

One of the Monster Hunter series' flagship monsters, the leviathan Lagiacrus, will not be making an appearance in Monster Hunter World's future content updates. During a postmortem at GDC,  Game Director Yuya Tokuda confirmed that that the formidable Lord of the Sea isn't planned to rear its head in the title, although it was present in the game's prototype. The prototype gameplay footage, worked on for a year and a half, was used to demonstrate the new environmental systems, proving that a hunter could survive confrontations without drawing their weapon, and relying on environmental features alone. It followed a hunter tracking an Anjanath through what looked like the Ancient Forest area from the finished game, and being pursued up a cliff. The confrontation ended with the pair being swept off the cliff in a cascading waterfall, with the Lagiacrus emerging from the water to finish off the Anjanath. Continue reading…

Developer Massive Monster has announced that its Kickstarter-funded platformer The Adventure Pals, published by Armor Games , will be arriving simultaneously on all platforms, coming to PC, PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch on April 3. The Adventure Pals is a side-scrolling action-adventure platformer which features RPG elements and two-player local drop-in/drop-out co-operative play. The game definitely leans towards the whimsical - whilst playing through its 105 levels, players can expect to encounter "zombie pirate cats, post-apocalyptic dinosaurs and hot dogs that poop explosive mines", which is an image that may stay with you forever.

Ubisoft is adding two new studios to its roster of development teams, with offices in Mumbai, India and Odesa, Ukraine being established. The Odesa studio will open in addition to the already established Kiev Ubisoft studio, managed by Kiev studio manager Adrian Serbanescu. The Odesa office joins the seven other studios working on Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon franchise. 10 people are currently working on the team, and Ubisoft plans to expand with 60 more members of the Odesa team within the next two years. The Mumbai team will report to the managing director of the Pune, India studio, Jean-Philippe Pieuchot. The two studios are set to work closely together on the development of AAA console games and development of Ubisoft's live services. Pune's previous work  includes the South Park: The Fractured But Whole Nintendo Switch port , as well as the upcoming Far Cry 3 remaster included as part of Far Cry 5's season pass.

Rare has high hopes for Sea of Thieves, and according to studio head Craig Duncan, the development team intends to continue to support the game post-launch to make it "as big and successful as it can be." On the latest episode of our monthly interview show  IGN Unfiltered , Duncan said the studio "of course" has a roadmap and plan for the future of Sea of Thieves. "There's more stuff we want to add to Sea of Thieves," Duncan said, noting the team "definitely want to be reactive" to fixing any balancing issues and bugs that might arise. "Every single person I've talked to that launched a service-based game tells me, 'Hey, you think you know what you've gotta do—actually when you launch there'll be a load of different stuff,'" he explained, noting he's well aware there will probably be plenty of stuff the team wasn't aware of prior to release that they'll need to address after launch. Continue readi...

As my co-op partner and I approached the climax of A Way Out, the cinematic, 1970’s-set prison-break adventure from the studio headed by filmmaker-turned-game-developer Josef Fares, I thought it had run out of gas. I’d been hooked for the first five hours, which do a magnificent job of blending drama with action and emotion with lightheartedness. In that time we’d rarely done the same style of of gameplay twice, and I had gotten to know and understand Vincent, the more diplomatic and reserved of the two playable convicts in this mandatory two-player story. But here we were, knee-deep in a cliched sequence I’d seen a million times before in both games and movies. I thought A Way Out had run out of tricks. Continue reading…

Fortnite's limited-time Blitz mode went live this week, and Epic has released an update to make building resources less plentiful. Resources gained from looting and farming were reduced with yesterday's hotfix. "Having tons of resources is a blast, and our goal with the mode was to make it easier to gain resources due to the storm moving in so much faster," Epic said in the announcement on Reddit . "We believe that our initial resource numbers were a bit too abundant, and are making this adjustment to ensure there is still some risk/reward when farming in Blitz." Continue reading…

Horror title, Agony had been set for a March 30 release, but has been delayed The announcement was made over on the game's Kickstarter page , with the delay due to the studio putting the finishing touches to the title needed to meet fan expectations.

"With Agony being released across PS4, PC and Xbox we are facing last steps including polishing to support every player- no matter which platform - with the best possible experience," reads the update.

As it turns out, getting to watch an actor see a video game character that's modeled after their likeness, mimicking the micro-expressions in their face, and speaking the lines they recorded, for the first time, is pretty incredible. Janina Gavankar is Star Wars Battlefront II's Iden Versio, and until I sat down with her late last year, she wasn't sure which of the hours upon hours of motion capture and voice recordings would make it into the final game. That didn't seem to matter, though, since it was obvious that Gavankar so passionately and wholly knows Iden as a character that every word that did make it into the game was layered in a whole lot of personal investment. Continue reading…

LEGO toy packaging has confirmed a LEGO The Incredibles game is in development. According to The Brick Fan , the teaser was found on the back of the instruction manuals included in LEGO Juniors Incredibles 2 sets. This will be the first LEGO game based on a Pixar movie, and will most likely support the upcoming release of Incredibles 2 in June. As per the image, it looks like the game will be coming to PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. We reported back in January that TT Games was working on both LEGO Incredibles and DC Villains games .  This appears to confirm the development rumours. Continue reading…
