Bloodborne’s Chalice Dungeons are a lot to dig through, and people have discovered some strange things in their game files. Now data digger Lance McDonald has found several boss rush arenas that never made it into the final game. Chalice Dungeons are wholly optional dungeon dives in Bloodborne, and they can be accessed by using…
E3 was this week, and we saw many different things appear onstage. Last week I asked you to create some images of the things that you wanted to see at the show, and golly did you deliver. The Electronic Entertainment Expo is the place where we learn about new games, get excited about upcoming ones,…
This week is E3, so the game offerings are slight, but it’s the perfect time to learn how to create your own dinosaur park. Jurassic World Evolution is coming out this week, and there’s nothing that gets me more excited about the game than the inevitable reality that I will create a nightmare scenario in…

It’s E3 this week, and we’re going to be shown lots of games that we expect and a few that we don’t know anything about. I need ‘shops that show me the latter. Every E3 is a rollercoaster of emotions. The biggest companies in video games promise things about games, and then years later we…

We know that the lovable Assassins are going to go on an odyssey, so I asked all of you excellent image editors to show me where this game series should go next. The pitch of the Assassin’s Creed series is that Assassins and Templars can be anywhere. As long as someone wants to control someone…
If you like vampires in the middle of summer, then this week is a real treat for you. I’ve been looking forward to Vampyr for a long time (I’m still a massive fan of Remember Me). That said, I have purposefully kept myself in the dark…with the vampires…about what it is actually about. Hopefully it’s…
This weekend was Pro Tour Dominaria, the first major professional play event taking place after the recently released Dominaria set of Magic: The Gathering, and the most important person in the entire tournament was a fun little goblin with a jump rope. Well, it might be a chain. And that goblin might be whirling that…
Cities: Skylines is a game that I keep going back to. Even though new and interesting content packs come out for it regularly, I find myself drawn to the scale of the game more than its content. I mean, it’s big, and flying through it set to a calm soundtrack is the ultimate soothing experience.…
With the leak-then-confirmation of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’s ancient Greek setting, I’ve started thinking about where the scheming and murdering factions of the Assassin’s Creed franchise should go next. I’m a big fan of these games. I’ve thought long and hard about them. They’re important to me. And it’s out of that deep respect and thinking…

Being a good steward of a tabletop game experience is hard work. Any Dungeon Master can tell you that setting the right tone and crafting the perfect story is difficult, fiddly work. I asked Matthew Mercer, famed Dungeon Master, how he’s so good at what he does. As the Dungeon Master of Critical Role, probably…
A Race Against Time, a speedrunning marathon dedicated to racing games, is happening this weekend. The schedule is packed full of racing favorites like Wave Race 64 and Stuntman: Ignition. The marathon will continue until Sunday evening.
A very creative person has recreated Firelink Shrine from Dark Souls within Lego Worlds. I dare you to name a more iconic duo. Lego Worlds is a big, sprawling building game where you play with digital Legos, collect more Legos, and generally just have the most amazing time of your entire crafty life. Dark Souls…
Battlefield V is coming, and there’s a lot going on. Planes and tanks, shootable grenades, and a whole lot of havoc and mayhem are coming on down the line. I asked you last week to make it even more chaotic, and you delivered. The ceiling for weird things in video games is very high. We…
This week has lots of indie games on many different platforms as well as the much-anticipated Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Edition It’s a rare week where we get lots of indie games making a splash, but this week has a big bundle of treasures like throwback Milanoir, the ever-interesting Knights of Pen and Paper, and…
A modder has extracted a map of Bloodborne’s Upper Cathedral Ward from Dark Souls Remastered and opened it within Grand Theft Auto V. Now you can drive a car in it. It’s hard to decide what’s weirder here. Why is a level that appears in a game from 2015 sitting inside a 2018 remaster of…
