S.H. Figuarts has a new line of Street Fighter figures out, and I like ‘em. There are four so far. Ryu and Chun-Li are already available, while Cammy and Rashid are on the way. As we can see in these pics from Toyark, the joints are…not great, especially on characters like Cammy who are showing…
It’s been over eight years since BattleStar Galactica ended in almost the worst way imaginable, and in that time we haven’t got a single good (official) game based on the series. We now have one. Kinda. Kinda not because the latest, Battlestar Galactica Deadlock, is not a good video game. It is! It’s kinda because…

Track: Ghomrassen | Artist: Bonobo | Album: Star Wars Headspace Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to at the moment.
Since camping is such an important part of Final Fantasy XV, it’s cool that this team of cosplayers decided the best way to recreate the game was to get out into the wilds or Arizona and shoot on one of only two nights of the year that the Milky Way is visible to the naked…
Here’s the first good look at a Persona 5 figure that won’t be out until next year, but will have already changed your heart: Figma’s Joker, who also includes Morgana whether you want him or not, because of course he would Joker includes three faces (one with a mask and two without), a gun, a…

Antihero, released on PC earlier this month, is a game about managing a grimy, Victorian thieves guild. Which involves all the expected daily chores, like murdering street thugs, bribing church officials and sending little homeless kids off to occupy banks. Creator Tim Conkling calls Antihero a “digital board game”, and it’s good to get that…

Reader Devin Smith, no stranger to amazing custom controller designs, returns with this God of War piece that has everything you’d expect, down to the paint and leather. Notice how the runes on the back light up to take the place of the DualShock 4’s regular illumination, which is nice. As is that leather flap,…
Comic Con is, of course, the biggest nerd show on the planet, which means there was a lot of A+ cosplay on show. Too much to capture in one set of videos and photos, but hey, that’s not going to stop us from trying. The first video below is courtesy of Sneaky Zebra, while the…
31-year-old Elijia Dale Creech has been arrested by police in Minnesota following a fight over a game of Magic: The Gathering, in which his 20 year-0ld opponent was stabbed seven times in the face and neck.

That’s the question Clicky Crisp ask in this video. Then answer, in a way that makes me wish this was actually the way you played this video game.
It isn’t quite the mountain bike gameI’ve long been asking for, but Descenders might be a start. The stages are procedurally generated, which is neat. It’s coming for the PC.

Alongside the release of Nubia, Civilization VI has a “Summer Update” out today that makes a number of surprisingly major changes to the game. There’s a lot to sift through, including tweaks to many individual Civ’s traits, but the most important ones fall into two categories: early-game expansion and the game’s user interface. Firaxis have…
