Denshattack!, which released just yesterday, has made quite an impression on us, earning a glowing review score of 9/10. If it's one you've had your eyes on to play on PC, Fanatical is actually offering a 32% discount on it right now. This has dropped its price from $19.99 to $13.59 (see it here), allowing you to save a few extra bucks on a copy for Steam, but it won't be on sale for long.
Fanatical's store page for Denshattack! currently has a timer going that details how long this deal will last. As of the time of this writing, it says there's 13 days left to grab it, but that time can go by faster than you'd expect. So, if you're hoping to take advantage of this offer, it's worth jumping on it now.

Fortnite has released DC characters Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn in skimpy swimwear, and locked their use to modes rated T for Teen, or ages 13+.
Epic Games has trumpeted the arrival of the spicy DC skins as part of a new "Hot Bat Summer" promotion that sees the arrival of Batman gadgets, a gliding Batmobile and a Batman Sprite into battle royale.
Over in the game's item shop, meanwhile, are new Batman, Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn skins — notable for just how much skin they're all showing. Fortnite has noticeably relaxed its guidelines for skins released since late last year, finally allowing male skins to include nipples, while some female skins have featured more cleavage, as well as so-called "jiggle physics."

Palworld and Pokémon fans are arguing over whether a new whale Pal called Panthalus copies the Pokémon, Kyogre.
Palworld creature Panthalus is a massive legendary blue-green whale with a white belly, flared fins and tribal-like markings across its body, plus a large bronze decoration. Beloved Pokémon Kyogre, meanwhile, is a legendary blue whale with a white belly, flared fins and tribal markings across its body, with no bronze decoration.
Writing on social media, some fans have said that the design of Panthalus is "clearly inspired" by Kyogre, even if the concept of a mythical whale is not unique to Pokémon. One fan dubbed the design as "brazen," though others said it looked "legally distinct" enough.
"I feel like the similar art...
Obsidian and Bethesda are two beloved RPG studios that complement each other beautifully, in the vein of all the classic double acts. Lennon and McCartney. Beer and nuts. Britain and Post-War Decline. By 2021, Xbox had acquired them both, which led many of us to believe that the holiest of holy grails was now on the cards: a proper follow-up to New Vegas, the acclaimed Obsidian developed Fallout spin-off that brought the series back to its wild west roots, while keeping and expanding upon the grand modernisation effort that Bethesda started with Fallout 3. The result? A game so adored that they’re now making an ultrabudget TV show that directly follows on from it, a game so highly regarded that many consider it the peak of what’s...
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 has a new vehicle called Dreadnought, a bespoke tactical SUV designed for the game by Aston Martin and developed by Infinity Ward — and we’ve got a first look.
Dreadnought is in the first-person shooter at launch, and can be found at select points of interest in the DMZ mode (Modern Warfare 4's take on an extraction shooter), as well as the battle royale, Warzone. "An Aston Martin’s natural habitat is amongst luxury properties and landscapes," Activision teased. "Dreadnought simply has a slightly more adventurous commute."
Activision describes Dreadnought as “uncompromising” and “deliberately extreme,” and said it has a “dramatic” V12 engine roar.
Here’s the official blurb, from Activision:

Roblox has announced Build, a new AI creation tool that lets anyone turn a text prompt into a basic game directly within the Roblox mobile app.
Build is the latest AI push from the company, which suggested a prompt as simple as “Let’s make a cozy adventure game set in a dense forest with environmental obstacles,” will automatically generate a starting point for the creator to iterate on, playtest, and share with friends or publish to Roblox. A base-level version of Build will be available at no cost to creators, with additional paid options for power users.
The screenshots below show how the Build process looks, from prompt to publish, on your phone.
Meanwhile, on July 28 Roblox will release new agentic tools for “professional”...

Clean the Squishies codes will give you squishies as a currency, which you can use to purchase inventory upgrades such as Bubblegum Aura for a 10% cash increase, or Cloud Aura for a 25% cash increase.
In this satisfying Roblox experience, you'll be thrown into a room with all sorts of squishies, from zombies to sticks of butter, and need to place them on the correct shelves.

Ever since Sony announced plans to do away with physical discs for new PlayStation games from 2028 onwards, angry gamers have flooded the company’s social media platforms to demand a U-turn. This in turn has overshadowed PlayStation’s online activity — spare a thought for the people who found themselves bearing the brunt of the backlash just because they were in PlayStation’s first social media post since the disc-killing announcement.
Now, great new games are getting caught in the crossfire. The digital-only Denshattack!, from indie developer Undercoders, launched yesterday, and PlayStation promoted the release across its social media channels. This is a game with rave reviews (IGN’s Denshattack! review returned a 9/10), and it...

The upcoming Avatar film, Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender, will release in some theaters after all.
In 2021, Paramount announced that it was developing a feature-length Avatar film for a theatrical release. It was later revealed that the film was a sequel to the original Nickelodeon TV series, following the original cast of characters as adults. Everything seemed to be going well up until Paramount abruptly pulled the plug on the film's theatrical release, opting to send it straight to streaming on Paramount+.
Naturally, this was pretty disappointing for fans who wanted to experience the Aang's return on the big screen, but not all hope is lost. Variety has reported that the film will be coming to theaters alongside the film's...
Activision is investigating issues revolving around mods and hackers in Call of Duty: Black Ops on PS4 and PS5.
Last week, Activision dropped ports of Black Ops 1 and 2 on PS4 and PS5. Although they don't feature any significant improvements or upgrades, fans were extremely happy to see these games accessible on PlayStation. However, the fun was spoiled pretty quickly.
Earlier this week, modders and exploiters began compromising lobbies in the Black Ops 1 port, leading to some players calling the game "unplayable." These lobbies allow you to rank up rapidly and basically make the entire progression system irrelevant. Activision took action pretty quickly and removed certain playlists to address the matter; however, concerns remain...

The Steam Machine might not be priced like we hoped – courtesy of the ongoing memory shortage – but those who can pony up the cash will get to customize their machine in some very fun ways, thanks to its swappable magnetic faceplate. Also, those boxy, flat sides are just begging for skins, aren’t they?
The unfortunate thing is that, for now at least, almost none of the usual suspects are selling skins, faceplates, or other cosmetic accessories for the Steam Machine. Dbrand did have its Companion Cube enclosure, but, well, we know how that went. And the company isn’t selling its usual collection of skins and wraps for the Steam Machine, at least not yet. JSaux has some cool-looking stuff in the works for later this year, like a clear...
Nick Apostolides, best known as the voice behind beloved Resident Evil protagonist Leon S. Kennedy, revealed a hilarious voice line he pitched for RE9 that got cut from final game.
Apostolides’ performance as Leon Kennedy in Resident Evil Requiem saw him lean into the character’s badass, '80s-action-flick persona that first blossomed in RE4, giving him a slew of lovably corny one-liners that he spouts off throughout the course of the game.
One of these quips was suggested by Apostolides’ during Leon’s fight with the Titan Spinner in Raccoon City — but unfortunately, it didn’t end up making the cut. And that’s a real bummer, because it’s priceless.
He revealed this information during a podcast episode with fellow voice actors Ben...
Denshattack! is one of those rare games that feels familiar in its aims, but completely fresh in its execution. It takes place in a world ravaged by climate change, where most of humanity now lives inside corporate-controlled domes. Outside of that carefully managed society, you play as a woman selling ramen from an old train.
The rails, unfortunately, have seen better days. While you are technically still travelling on tracks, getting around means jumping gaps, pulling off kickflips, grinding rails, and chaining together tricks in ways that make your train feel more like a skateboard than a vehicle.
Early on, you meet someone who introduces you to Denshattack, a sport where train drivers compete to be as cool, stylish, and fast as...
Hit superhero workplace comedy game Dispatch will finally land on Xbox this month, developer AdHoc Studio has announced.
Dispatch will touch down on Microsoft's machine in two weeks, on Wednesday, July 29, and you can wishlist it via the Xbox Store right now. Its launch comes the best part of a year since it began rolling out on PC and PlayStation 5 last October.
A Switch 2 version arrived in January of this year, though its debut was marred by the unexpected addition of last-minute censorship. A patch last month largely alleviated the issue — and at the time, it was confirmed that the Xbox version would not suffer a similar fate.
Developed by veterans of The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us studio Telltale Games, Dispatch...
Sony has confirmed the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for July 2026, which is headlined by Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, Rise of the Ronin, and two PS2 classics.
It’s worth remembering that Sony is still experimenting with the timing of new PS Plus game releases, which means the games will be released on varying dates throughout the month in the U.S., the UK and Japan. The full lineup will be available to play on July 21 in all other regions.
Here’s the lineup, courtesy of the PlayStation Blog.

Fresh from his epic journey home after the Trojan War, Matt Damon's Odysseus has one more trip planned: riding the battle bus into Fortnite.
That's right, the hero of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey will land in Epic Games' battle royale item shop tomorrow, Thursday, July 16, following the game's next big update. That's the same one that's adding England legend David Beckham, as well as a slew of Batman characters in swimsuits.
Epic Games has shown off footage of Odysseus' skin in action — and yes, it's clearly based on the likeness of Matt Damon.
Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR has also posted an image of a second The Odyssey skin, that of the hulking Agamemnon, played by Benny Safdie in the movie.

Sometimes, a game comes along that makes you think “man, this is so up my alley it’s like it was made just for me.” Denshattack is one of those games. It’s the kind of joint we used to get all the time in the PS2 era and is now only found in the indie space. Video games are serious business, you know, and we don’t have time for nonsense. Denshattack is definitely nonsense, but I mean that as the highest possible compliment. Here’s the pitch: What if Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater did the Dragon Ball fusion dance with Jet Set Radio, but instead of skating you pilot a train around a dystopian Japan in order to do sick tricks and take down an evil corporation? Sounds rad as hell, right? Turns out, it is. Two thoughts ran on a loop while I was...
New details about Whore of the Orient, the canceled spiritual successor to LA Noire, have been revealed by a former writer on the project.
I recently sat down with Daniel McMahon, a writer who worked on LA Noire for a YouTube video celebrating the game's recent 15th anniversary. In the second half of the video, we dove deep on Whore of the Orient, a controversial game that would've served as a spiritual successor to LA Noire. The game was in the works at Kennedy Miller-Mitchell, the production company of the Mad Max films, and was being worked on by ex-Team Bondi staff, including LA Noire writer and director Brendan McNamara.
It would've been yet another historical crime story, but this time set in Shanghai in the 1930s. McMahon...
Two classics from Tim Burton's filmography are getting 4K steelbooks this year: Sleepy Hollow and Sweeney Todd. The former is actually a steelbook reprint, so if you've been hoping to have it in your library, now is the time to grab it.
Both steelbooks are now available to preorder for $34.99 with a release date of September 22, which is just a couple of months away. Don't wait too long to place your order, though, as steelbooks like these can sell out fast. So, head to the links below to grab your favorite(s), before that happens.

This limited-edition steelbook reprint of Sleepy Hollow - which features quite a fun, dramatic cover you can see below - comes with the film on 4K, Blu-ray, and digital...
It may be 25 years old now, but Halo’s first installment still has the power to wow. Combat Evolved is packed full of awesome moments: the first view of the titular ringworld arching above you, the Covenant swarming onto the Pillar of Autumn, and driving a warthog through vast Forerunner structures. And as you push forward through Master Chief’s debut mission, there’s the sense of a rich universe being teased, whether its ancient civilisations or the extent of humanity's reach across the galaxy. The series' founder, Bungie, created a universe with so much intrigue that its expanded universe was able to begin before the first game even launched – the beloved prequel novel, The Fall of Reach, was published a couple of weeks ahead of...
Striking staff at Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced co-developer Ubisoft Barcelona have slammed the company's initial severance pay offer as "below any resonable standard," after employees were told that up to 51 jobs were being eliminated.
Layoffs at Ubisoft Barcelona were announced last month as part of a wider wave of job losses across the firm. 380 staff are being let go in this latest downsizing, spread across Ubisoft offices in Winnipeg and Belgrade (which will close completely), in Barcelona, and in the company's global publishing division.
At Ubisoft Barcelona, up to 51 jobs have been placed at risk as Ubisoft plans to cut the team's size and restrict it to working just on the Rainbow Six franchise in future, IGN...
Microsoft has pulled Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 from July 2026 Xbox Game Pass lineup, without offering an explanation.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 was due to hit Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass Premium, and PC Game Pass on July 21, but a note added to the Game Pass post on Xbox Wire confirms its removal from the lineup. It reads:
“Editor’s Note (7/13): We’ve removed Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 from the list of titles coming soon to Game Pass.”
It’s worth noting that Microsoft owns Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 via its $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard, so it’s in complete control of publishing the title. Indeed, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 was added to Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass this time last year, and Game Pass...
Forza Horizon 6 developer Playground Games has confirmed all the fresh content coming to the game over the next four weeks, some of which will be arriving within the Horizon Playlist Series 3, and some of which is coming alongside it.

The essence of The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu as a co-op survival horror game is best captured by a moment where I was yelling at my friend repeatedly asking what the hell he was laughing about before being brutally murdered. You see, this was not my friend at all, but a Faceless One using his character model and repeatedly playing back his recorded laughter from earlier in the match. But when it comes to making me feel like I've lost my mind, The Mound’s clever madness effects sometimes take a backseat to ruthless difficulty that doesn't always respect my time or make it easy to bring in new allies.
It took more than 50 expeditions and around 50 hours of scouring the beautiful Chilean wilderness to unbury all the secrets of The Mound's...
Dead Space creator Glen Schofield has announced his retirement from the "day to day work" of the gaming industry.
Schofield took to LinkedIn to break the news with an emotional video, thanking his fans, colleagues, and the industry for supporting him throughout his career. He also took a moment to acknowledge that, although the industry is experiencing a lot of hardships right now, there are still great minds making great games.
Schofield didn't give an explicit reason for his retirement, but he has had a successful 35-year run in the industry. After beginning as an artist, Schofield climbed the ranks before becoming a producer at EA, where he contributed to James Bond and Lord of the Rings games. After his work on Bond, EA gave him...
A brand new Halo multiplayer game has been scrapped, according to sources.
A popular Halo YouTuber known as Rebs Gaming has reported that a new multiplayer project set in the beloved sci-fi universe was recently cancelled. This report was also backed up by Windows Central's Jez Corden, who stated that the news was "100% true."
The new game was codenamed 'Ekur,' and was being worked on by Certain Affinity, a studio that has done a lot of support work on previous Halo and Call of Duty titles. The game's origins began in a totally different project known as 'Tatanka,' which was a battle royale-esque Halo game.
However, that was scrapped in favor of Ekur, which was described as a "super big team battle idea," pulling from Halo's history...
