Most video game box art sucks. The new DOOM’s cover, however,is especially bad. Thankfully, Bethesda seems to have taken note of this, and is offering fans a “vote” on a reversible second cover. I say “vote” because while two options are being presented to fans to choose from, one is so bad—and the other so…
Hot Toys, normally known for their smaller figures, outdid themselves at a mall event in Hong Kong this week by building life-size models of Batman, the Batmobile, Superman and Wonder Woman, all from the upcoming Batman vs Superman movie. Each model is actually a giant version of a Batman vs Superman figure that Hot Toys…
This was announced as part of Japan’s Nintendo Direct this evening. It’s a New 3DS XL that shares the colour scheme/design elements of the timeless Japanese/PAL Super Nintendo America, because your Super Nintendo was purple and gross and sucked, you’ll likely never get this. But with a slight change of wording on the back, maybe…
Kirby: Planet Robobot is a new Kirby game for the 3DS. You’ve got a Kirby mech that you upgrade, and there’s also a four-player co-op mode. In addition to the new game, there’ll also be a Kirby line of Amiibo, which you can check out below.
Hey, a new Paper Mario game! It’s coming to the Wii U, and it’s called Paper Mario: Color Splash. It’s coming in 2016.
It’s easy to sit here as a games writer or armchair pundit and rail against the practice of publishers asking for more money from gamers who have already spent $60 on a new title. But hey, turns out plenty of people love doing it (and are doing it), especially when it comes to EA Sports’…
Look, people have opinions about Quiet’s character design. If you don’t like it, that’s totally understandable. If you do, there are companies ready to take your money. One of those companies is Japanese toy firm Gecco, who in June/July will be releasing this 1/6 scale (around 30cm high) statue of the silent sniper, which features…
Al Jerek Torrijas is a concept artist who works at Ubisoft’s Toronto studio. It’s been a while since we had a good splash of colour here on Fine Art. I think this makes amends. You can see more of Torrijas’ work at his personal site and ArtStation page To see the larger pics in all…
Track: Behold, a White Horse | Artist: Bluetech | Album: The 4 Horsemen of the Electrocalypse: The White Horse Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.
I wanted a singleplayer campaign in the latest Battlefront. You probably did too. You know who else does? John Boyega, the guy who plays Finn in the actual Star Wars movies. It is! It’s also a better way to appreciate all the work that went into the game’s visuals and sound. Boyega then adds: Listen…
The Oculus Rift and HTC Vive aren’t just here for video games. They’re also here for fancy 3D sketches that look like cartoons come to life. This is a sketch of Valve boss Gabe Newell, done using Google’s Tilt Brush and a Vive. It starts out looking like a regular 2D image, then whoosh, it…
Steven K Smith is one of the best props builders around. This enormous, full-scale WarCraft suit is just one of the reasons why. You don’t see this very often! Normally when someone cosplays as a WarCraft Orc, they paint their skin green, maybe wear a mask and be done with it. Smith, though, wanted to…
From the very first game in the Civilization series through to today, India’s supposedly-peaceful leader Gandhi has been famous for one thing: dropping nukes. And there’s a very good reason for it. UPDATE: Series co-creator Sid Meier has now actually debunked this! You can read his explanation here. Original story follows: It’s not your mind…
XCOM. Fire Emblem. Civilization. Invisible Inc. Endless Legend. Don’t look now, but if you’re a fan of video games where the action is broken up into turns, you’ve never had it better. Despite being one of the oldest game design fundamentals around, having been so liberally lifted from tabletop gaming all those decades ago, over…

Well, this is new. Quantum Break, Remedy’s grand experiment fusing video games with serial television, has some video game parts and some live-action parts. The video game parts will come bundled on the game’s disc/download. The live-action TV episode parts, however, will have to be streamed to your PC or Xbox. Remedy’s Greg Loudentold Game…
