The boss of Stalker 2 developer GSC Game World has spoken about its troubled development and the brutal crunch it suffered as it tried desperately to get the game ready for launch amid Russian’s invasion of Ukraine.
Stalker 2 finally launched on PC and Xbox Series X and S at the end of November after a number of high-profile delays and after half the development team had moved out of Ukraine and into a new studio home in the Czech Republic. However, half the staff stayed in Ukraine even as the war raged around them, making development extremely difficult. Stalker 2’s rocky road to release and the incredibly difficult circumstances its developers found themselves in is at the heart of the 90-minute documentary, War Game: The Making of...

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 publisher Focus Entertainment has confirmed a December 10 release date for the hotly anticipated Patch 5 and Dark Angels Chapter Pack, and released a new screenshot showing something players haven’t seen in the game yet.
Focus has said Patch 5 makes the recently released Neo-Volkite Pistol (the one players were using to recreate Ghostbusters) available in PvP, adds a new PvE Operation called Obelisk, the new Tzaangor Enlightened Majoris enemy, and the aforementioned Dark Angels Chapter Pack, which includes a unique armor set and banner for the Bulwark Class.
In a tweet, Focus released four new screenshots (below) showing off the new content, but there’s one image in particular that’s set tongues...
Sony’s original PlayStation exclusivity deal for Grand Theft Auto 3 and the following two games in the series was in part a reaction to concern about Microsoft’s launch of the Xbox, a former executive has revealed.
Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, former PlayStation Europe boss Chris Deering (who was recently criticized for saying laid off developers should “drive an Uber” or “go to the beach for a year”) admitted Sony was concerned about the November 2001 launch of the original Xbox, and sought exclusivity deals with third-party publishers to bolster the appeal of the PlayStation 2.
"We were worried when we saw Xbox coming," Deering said. "We knew exclusivity was the name of the game in a lot of fields, like Sky TV with sports. Just...
The developer of Path of Exile 2 has warned players to brace themselves for server queues this weekend, with over one million concurrent players expected to hit the Early Access launch.
In a video message, Grinding Gear Games co-founder Jonathan Rogers spoke about anticipation for the action role-playing sequel surpassing the studio's expectations, and expressed concern that its backend services could buckle under the weight of the Early Access release.
Path of Exile 2’s global release times set the launch for 11am PT today, December 6, and it’s at this point that the floodgates will open. Path of Exile 2 is already the top-selling game on Steam by revenue, suggesting Rogers’ concern is well-placed. Whether the game is up to the task...
Marvel Rivals enjoyed an immediate huge launch, with over 440,000 concurrent players on Steam alone.
NetEase’s free-to-play Marvel-themed hero shooter saw a peak concurrent player count of 444,286 on Valve’s platform. But the true concurrent figure will be much higher given Marvel Rivals launched on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S also (Sony and Microsoft do not make player numbers public).
It seems to be going down well on Steam, too, with a ‘mostly positive’ user review rating from over 5,700 reviews (76% of the reviews are positive). Check out IGN’s Marvel Rivals Review in Progress to find out what we think.
For NetEase, it will be hoping not only to keep Marvel Rivals’ player count as high as possible for as long as...
Thank your own personal deity—possibly Jubileus the Creator—it's Friday. And what an end-of-the week closer I have for you today! FREE is the keyword of the moment for specific reasons I care not to know nor seek to quantify. For PlayStation owners, that means a lovely Mini Turismo for nada. For PC gamers, well... it means a landslide...
In retro news, I'm wondering how the hell a quarter of a century has gone by since I bought Donkey Kong 64 at launch. In '99, I'd already played the backpack off Rare's Banjo-Kazooie and was therefore stoked with DK64's slick, 4MB-enhanced presentation and insane gameplay variety provided by its hot-swappable, rotating cast of Kongs. Couple that with tunes that still have permanent residence in my...
Riot Games has announced Project K, the developer’s take on the physical TCG genre and a competitor to Magic: The Gathering. It’s based in the League of Legends IP and revolves around playing with friends in-person.
Riot said Project K is made by a “small” development team within the company led by game director Dave Guskin and executive producer Chengran Chai. It’s not publishing the game itself; rather, it’s found a publishing partner in China for an initial launch there in early 2025. A global launch is planned, however, and Riot is on the hunt for a publishing partner for the U.S. and other countries.
Riot said Project K is not a physical version of its existing digital collectible card game Legends of Luneterra, but "it does...
It’s been over 30 years since I wore out my VHS copy of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Since then the film franchise has been in a state of escalation. Where do you go after uncovering the literal Holy Grail? Aliens, then time machines, apparently. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is the perfect antidote to all of this; one that uses its own figurative Dial of Destiny to propel us back in time to Indy’s prime. The result is easily one of the best Indy stories across both the games and the movies, with painstakingly detailed environments, wonderfully atmospheric tomb raiding and puzzle solving, a pitch-perfect score, and quite possibly the greatest punch sound effect in the business. While it does stumble occasionally as a...
I’m not new to the hero shooter genre, having pumped well over 1,000 hours into Overwatch since its 2016 release. And it's hard not to feel like 2016 is exactly when Marvel Rivals was meant to be a thing. I should've been eagerly awaiting its launch while mourning the loss of Harambe, witnessing a low point in English football at the hands of Iceland, and, crucially, riding the high of watching Captain America: Civil War. That said, what we're getting in 2024 is a fun hero shooter that I've found a good deal of satisfaction in so far while playing on pre-release servers this week. It’s launching with a chunky roster of varied heroes, as well as some solid maps and modes. What remains to be seen, however, is whether Rivals will find a...
Far Cry is one of the most beloved series from Ubisoft, and for good reason. Over the last 20 years, Far Cry has challenged and twisted the shooter formula with all sorts of settings through 13 different games. This includes places like America, Cuba, the Himalayas, the dystopian future, and even a trip to 10,000 BCE. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the series, you can pre-order the all-new Far Cry 20th Anniversary Soundtrack Collection on vinyl at IGN Store!

Fortnite OG, which will once again take players back to the first days of Fortnite Battle Royale, will launch tomorrow, December 6, and The Fortnite Team has revealed more details on what fans can expect from this trip down memory lane.

Season 1 will end on January 30 at 11pm PT/January 31 at 2am ET, which will end up being shorter than Season lengths in the main game, so fans can expect their anticipated additions to arrive in a timely fashion. Don't worry, though, as Solos, Squads, and Zero Build will be available at launch.

Dark Horse is adding another popular gaming franchise to its lineup of exclusive collectibles. This time it's Remnant II, as the Fae goddess Nimue takes center stage in the form of a gorgeous new sculpted bust.
Head down to the slideshow gallery below for an exclusive first look at the Remnant II: Nimue Bust:
The Remnant II: Nimue Bust measures 9 inches tall, with a base diameter of 4.5 inches. The bust features a light-up LED heart and base, along with glow-in-the-dark paint, all of which are designed to reflect Nimue's connection to the Dreamer and the energy at the heart of the multiverse.
This bust was crafted Bigshot Toyworks, with prototyping and paint by J.W. Productions. It's being sold exclusively on the Dark Horse Direct...
Sensitivity Warning: The following article contains references to self harm which some readers may find disturbing. Please proceed with caution.
The official website for Infinity Nikki, the open-world dress up role-playing game from former The Legend of Zelda director Kentaro Tominaga, was temporarily hacked to display an offensive message and reference to Genshin Impact.
The highly anticipated game arrived on PlayStation 5, PC via the Epic Games Store, iOS, and Android today, December 5, but many users visiting the official website to download it were instead met with the offensive message.
Though it usually, and does again, feature colorful advertisements, information, and the actual download links for Infinity Nikki, alongside...
Welcome back, dear friend and fellow discount fiend, to my regularly scheduled programming. I've helped a bunch of you navigate the bargains of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Now it's all about picking through the wreckage and finding the gold that everybody else somehow missed (and you'd be surprised). Or, alternatively, let's all just score a bunch of free games*.
In retro news, I'm hosting a 21st...er, party for Mario Party 5. This GameCube entry tried to bring change to the static formula of the series, most notably with its new capsule system. Mixed results there, because while there was a decent amount of creative minigames, the aging board gameplay remained creaky. Regardless—and this is true of most Mario Parties—I had the...
Last updated on December 04, 2024: Checked for Sol's RNG codes!
Since the game's debut back in 2023, Sol's RNG has become one of the Roblox RNG genre's biggest hits, tempting thousands of players to begin building their collection of rare auras. However, as you get stuck into the game's dice-rolling collectathon grind, you'll likely start wondering if there are any redeemable codes to give you a leg up in building your aura arsenal. We've put together this page to give you all the details on the game's status regarding redeemable codes.
Are There Any Active Sol's RNG Codes?
Unfortunately, there are currently no codes for Sol's RNG. There's no word on whether redeemable codes are a feature the team behind the game intends to...
Roblox sports experience Blade Ball is charging into the holiday season with a Festivities Update to help celebrate winter.
The latest update to developer Wiggity’s strategic dodgeball game, titled V6.5, arrived over the weekend. It comes with a new Gingerbread Hourly Spin and a special festive crate alongside a host of bug fixes, new swords, emotes, and more. It’s unclear exactly how long the Festivities Update-related goodies will be live, so make sure you start getting those spins in sooner rather than later.
The Festive Crate can be found in the lobby and grants access to specific rewards. Wiggity didn’t reveal everything the crate can hold and instead teased just one item: an OP-tier sword called Northstar Reaper. Players who...
Friday the 13th and Predator: Hunting Grounds developer IllFonic has been hit by layoffs as the team has "re-aligned to a refined strategy."
IllFonic CEO & Co-Founder Charles Brungardt shared the message on X/Twitter saying, "Today we had to accept the harsh reality that the state of the industry has impacted us here at IllFonic."
"It is with the heaviest of hearts that cuts to our team had to be made as we re-aligned to a refined strategy," he continued. "There is a lot of talent in this group and if you or your team is hiring, please reach out so people can be connected to open roles. Thank you."
IllFonic was founded in 2007 and has studios in both Lakewood, Colorado and Tacoma, Washington. It is currently unclear how many people...
There is so much to do in Infinity Nikki – so much that it can sometimes be overwhelming. It's not long after you learn to run and jump that you're introduced to multiple in-game currencies, countless menus, and an abundance of color. Then, there are the outfits: hundreds of adorable clothing pieces, accessories, and makeup options across its beautiful fantasy world. A lot of that is inherent to the Nikki games, a dress-up gacha series that was previously mobile-only. It has the saccharine visuals, outfits ranging from the basic to the fantastical, and the trademark positivity mixed with occasional melancholy in its story. However, Infinity Nikki not only makes the jump to PC and consoles (alongside mobile), it does so while also...
Roblox tower defense strategy game Anime Last Stand’s new Tournament game mode is here alongside a quality-of-life update that adds a seamless retry feature, bug fixes, and more.
There’s a lot to go over when it comes to this latest update, but its new mode is the centerpiece. Developer Boss Studio says the mode asks players to deal as much damage as possible over a 20-minute period. The team says leaderboards reset every week, confirming that brackets will be added “soon.” With Tournaments also comes a Tournament Shop, which allows players to spend currency called Tournament trophies on items and new units.
Two new units also arrive with the Tournament update – Pirate King (Celestial) and Soul King (Shiny) (Exotic) – as well as...
Just as BioWare celebrates November 7 as the day of the year to celebrate all things Mass Effect, Dragon Age has a day to itself as well — and that's today, December 4.
It's also the first Dragon Age Day in a decade where BioWare actually has a new Dragon Age game to celebrate at all, and it's revealed a few surprises related to The Veilguard. The biggest one: it's releasing its character creator as a free, standalone app on all platforms.
That means you can make your own Rook (the player character) without shelling out for the game, and if you do decide to purchase The Veilguard in the end, you can simply import the character you already made. Plus, there's no time limit on it — and that's important, because you can kill a lot of...
The latest Naraka Fest has come and gone, and we got lots of info about what’s on the horizon for Naraka: Bladepoint. There’s a new hero, collab events, and upcoming world championship, and we have all the details about everything announced.
The most immediate bit of news relates to the collaboration with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which had been teased during the Naraka Fest Direct in June. The collab is already here — it launched on December 4 and added four characters from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Geralt, Triss, Yennefer, and Ciri are now available as skins for Tarka Ji, Cyra, Valda Cui, and Shayol Wei. During the collab, you’ll also be able to earn tokens that can be traded for in-game items.
The next big reveal was the...
Warhorse Studios has announced that Kingdom Come: Deliverance II will now be released one week early on February 4, 2025.
Warhorse Studios Global PR Manager Tobias Stolz-Zwilling shared the news on X/Twitter while also confirming a new story trailer will be dropping during the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted tomorrow, December 5.
Furthermore, Warhorse revealed Kingdom Come: Deliverance II has officially gone gold, meaning the game is content complete and the team is just working on optimizations and bug fixing. This milestone also means the team can reveal PC and Console specs, which will arrive tomorrow, and that the game will be PS5 Pro Enhanced and have a Quality and Performance Mode on both Xbox and PS5.
As for why the team decided...
This Henry guy just can't seem to catch a break. When we last left the blacksmith's son-turned-knight at the end of the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance, things were finally starting to look up for him. But the sequel, in true video game sequel fashion, starts by knocking him down a peg or two and dumping him into a new, larger open world to regain his dignity, one side quest at a time. And to be honest, that's refreshing.
The story of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II picks up almost immediately where the first one left off, but it's certainly not essential to have played it to follow what's going on, thanks to an extended intro that brings you up to speed on the broader strokes. The year is 1403. Henry is a village boy from Bohemia...
Bethesda has revealed the PC system requirements for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle ahead of its December 6 launch.
