German cosplay superstar Kamui, who we last saw with some of the best StarCraft work we’d ever seen, returns with some of the best Monster Hunter work we’ve ever seen. This Zinogre armour is almost perfect when you see it in stills, but the real winner here is how the whole thing lights up. Here’s…
The Yakuza 6 demo for PS4, which was pulled after accidentally letting people play the entire game, is now available once more. Just without the “play the entire game” part.
Assassin’s Creed tries to be a series about history, but over the last decade it hasn’t been afraid to get a little loose with that. We’ve had a tyrannical King George (Washington), and a bizarre hunt for Jack the Ripper, but it’s the series latest dalliance with fiction—Curse of the Pharoahs—that’s become my favourite historical…
A 13 year-old girl from Monroe County, Mississippi has been shot in the head by her 9 year-old brother during an argument over an unspecified video game controller. The Associated Press reports that the incident took place on Saturday, when the girl “wouldn’t give up the video game controller when her brother wanted it.” It’s…
Here’s something I’d never noticed before: two of the most memorable stages from Street Fighter II are likely a tribute to Hard Times, a 1975 Charles Bronson movie about…street fighting. There are multiple fights in the movie, but as Guerilla’s Dennis Zopfi pointed out in the tweet below, two in particular influenced the design of…
This is not photoshop, this is Jechtssplitting himself in two for some A++ Shadow of Mordor cosplay. The results are even more impressive when you see the rest of him. Photos by Britany Quin
Four people were arrested in The Netherlands last week after a police raid on a premises that had been using 3D printers to create fake Nintendo cartridges, inside which were hidden a variety of drugs like LSD, cocaine and MDMA. As De Telegraaf report, Dutch police raided a dark web drug dealing setup last year…
Some absolutely jaw-dropping Zelda cosplay here from Hannah Éva

No pictures today on Fine Art. Instead, we’ve got a video narrated by Blizzard Art Lead Ben Zhang, who takes us behind the scenes of Brigitte’s creation. It’s nice to see a major studio take the time out to detail the process like this, as we see Brigitte’s journey from comic character to playable member…
Kingdom Come’s inconsistent adherence to hardcore survival and historical elements means that while some parts of the game are fine, you may find that others are an unnecessary drag. Luckily, there are already a ton of mods that can help with that. Having tested a number of these over the past few weeks, here are…
The Emerald City Comic Con was held in Seattle earlier this month, with around 100,000 fans turning up. Some of those were cosplayers, and these are the best of them. Thanks to Justin for the photos! You can see more of his work at his personal site and Instagram page Note: we haven’t been able…
We mentioned last week that Fortnite streamer Ninja has gotten so big that rapper Drake was following him on Instagram. Tonight, they hooked up for a game and it crushed the record for most concurrent viewers on a single stream for the service. After some initial communications issues, and some adorable fan freakout from Ninja’s…

Abhishek Singh, creator of that very cool first-person Mario experience for the HoloLens, is back with a home-made version of Street Fighter that projects the action to anywhere you can point your phone screen at. He calls it the Real World Warrior Edition, and yes, it’s choppy. But like…the point here isn’t the speed or…
Reader Mahir, who last year designed a bunch of full-size Switch cases for downloadable titles, has come back in 2018 with something different. And much smaller. He’s created a range of Switch cases that are just big enough for the cartridge, and that’s it. Cons: you could lose all of these in around 17 seconds.…
The Curse of the Pharaohs is the second of Assassin’s Creed Origin’s expansions, and it’s out now. It’s big, and beautiful, and already a lot more fun than theThe Hidden Ones. We’ll have more to say on it once we’ve survived a few more battles against Murderous Undead Pharoahs.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance was a grand idea. In a genre awash with fantasy epics, it sought to ground a role-playing adventure not in some distant and imaginary land, but in history. There would be no wizards, no dragons, no giant rats—just you, a horse, some mud, and a cast of flawed human beings. Drawing on…
