The bundle is here to help celebrate the fourth anniversary of Superhot on Steam, which has become a best-seller since its release. On top of that, Cooking Simulator recently got a new mode inspired by the hit game, in which fans can prep food in slow motion....

Three weeks after the US Supreme Court overturned key legislation granting individuals the constitutional right to choose an abortion, Take-Two Interactive - which publishes the likes of Grand Theft Auto, Borderlands, BioShock, Mafia, and XCOM through its various subsidiaries - has issued a statement saying it “acknowledges” the decision “is a significant event”.

It has been nearly 20 years since Tales of Symphonia released on the Nintendo Gamecube and it’s finally making its return to a Nintendo platform. That’s right, the Nintendo Direct that aired earlier today confirmed that Tales of Symphonia Remastered will be coming to the Nintendo Switch. Tales of Symphonia has been a fan favorite of the series for years and it has seen releases on other consoles such as PS2, PS3, and even Steam, but it hasn’t felt fully at home on those consoles....

Let’s put the logistics of why the ‘fastest thing alive’ Sonic the Hedgehog is racing in a car to one side for a bit and enjoy the Team Sonic Racing launch trailer, that Sega’s put out ahead of the game’s launch next week. Just in case you need a refresher, this iteration focuses on the ‘Team’ part of that name, seeing Sonic and his friends join squads as they race each other around a series of brand new tracks....

Temtem released on Steam Early Access yesterday. For those unaware, the game is–and I say this without a hint of hyperbole–a Pokémon clone. You go around capturing Temtem instead of Pokémon, using your TemCard instead of Poké Balls, cataloging their capabilities with a TemPedia instead of a Pokédex and then enter competitive battles using their magic abilities in turn-based combat. However, there are a few major differences that set Temtem apart....

Looks like it’s that time again. A new FromSoftware game is out, and the internet is in an uproar debating difficulty, again. But all I really care about is how fun this game is, and, let me tell you, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is an absolute blast, no matter how many times I resurrect. It’s the biggest departure from the norm that FromSoftware, makers of the Dark Souls, Demon’s Souls, and Bloodborne games have ever made....

The 16-bit capable Sega Genesis was one of the most successful and coolest fourth-generation consoles.

With many of the meta guns such as the new Sykov pistols being nerfed and tactical rifles expected to receive a nerf in the next few days, you may already be scouting for a new weapon to use.

Violent anime is all fine and good, and there are certainly no complaints from me when it comes to something like Attack on Titan or Chainsaw Man, but there needs to be a balance. There should always be that show you keep in your back pocket to balance out the bloodbath series where characters die left and right, we have just the thing. The anime is called The Café Terrace and Its Goddesses and it’s based on a manga by Kōji Seo and it will be coming sometime in 2023....
