We showed off Masazi’s Raiden outfit when it floored people at this year’s TGS, but in the meantime she’s gone and made this very cool short film with Rescue the Princess which really showcases what the suit (and helmet) can do. You can see more of Masazi’s cosplay at her Facebook page
Noct is what happens when someone plays too much Hotline Miami, DayZ and maybe Call of Duty then goes and makes their own video game. And it turns out pretty fun. Noct is a game that I saw on the weekend described as “My indie game about being eaten by Nopes”. You spawn as a…
Reno Levi is an artist who works at Call of Duty developers Infinity Ward. He’s also worked on games like Halo Aniversary and Hawken You can see more of Reno’s work at his ArtStation page To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you can save them as…

Kotaku’s action figure coverage generally extends to “here is a cool action figure”. So excuse this brief interruption to bring you actual news involving an action figure. So, this is Bastian Schweinsteiger. He’s one of the world’s best footballers. Captain of the German national team (the current World Champions) and newly-signed midfielder for Manchester United.…
The Witcher 3 is the best. Witcher 3 cosplay is the best. Like, Priscilla cosplay? Priscilla cosplay! Who would think/bother to cosplay as such a relatively minor character? Corneline would, because she knows there’s no such thing as a minor character in The Witcher 3
For almost ten years now, Flavien Brebion has been working on a space game that was so ambitious he couldn’t get it finished. That game, Infinity: The Quest For Earth, sounded too good to be true. Inspired by titles like Frontier: Elite II, it would have let you roam a seamless galaxy, able to fly…
Nintendo just showed off these five new 3DS skins due for release (in Japan at least) in November. The Animal Crossing and Super Mario Maker ones are particularly yespleasey.
Arcade racing games were the shit in the 1990s. From Virtua Racer through to Daytona, a revolution in visuals and cabinet design made them the star attractions of arcades the world over. Until, that is, they got stale. Once everyone had got used to big vibrating cabinets and textured polygons, and developers like Sega and…
Who is Nolan North? No, that’s not it… (top image by @dmbryan14) Anyway, nicely done, Dennis. Easiest $800 you’ll ever make. Especially sincethe question could have been a lot harder
Yes, there’s a Destiny concept art mega-post, but this new Taken King stuff is so good I think it deserved its own feature. It’s by Ryan DeMita (via concept art world), and Destiny players will recognise some of it from the expansion’s cinematics, others as concepts for the Taken, the amazing black & white sketches…
Look, I’m not trying to take anything away from Maul Cosplay and Maja Felicitas’ incredible work as Snake and Quiet respectively, but having actual live wolves in the shoot steals the show. We never actually find out what breed of hound the game’s D-Dog is, but when grown up he looks pretty wolfish, so these…
WARSHIFT is a new-ish game on Early Access that wasn’t quite sure if it wanted to be an RTS or an action game. So it ended up being both. I’ve been messing around with it today and, while it’s far from perfect—the UI is unnecessarily cluttered and unwieldy for a genre that requires precision and…

Words elude me. What was already perfect is made moreso by the game on the badge. Photo by York in a Box. If you know the cosplayer, let me know!
Pablo Carpio is a concept artist and illustrator from Spain. He,like the rest of the planet, has some Star Wars fever right now That pic up top is his take on the Z-Wing, a Rebel fighter mentioned in fiction only by name, and never actually depicted (at least in canon sources). Looks like an X-Wing…
That face you see in Halo 5 isn’t quite Nathan Fillion’s. I mean, it’s clearly Nathan Fillion—this talk show bit with Jimmy Kimmel explains how he was extensively modelled for the game—but it also reveals the perks of working in a digital format. You push some buttons and suddenly your jaw is a little harder,…
Well, mostly hot. The colour scheme is amazing. I could have lived without that Vault Boy sitting weirdly in the corner, though. Not that it matters. As of right now, the thing is already sold out on Bethesda’s store; anyone else wanting one can either hope the rush results in a second production run, or…
On December 16, 1997, an episode of the then-unstoppable Pokémon animated series was broadcast in Japan. Barely thirty minutes later, nearly 700 children were on their way to hospital. Total Recall is a look back at the history of video games through their characters, franchises, developers and trends. The episode, called “Electric Soldier Porygon”, is…
