Wow, Iconoclasts! We’ve been talking about this game for years, back when it was destined for the PC, but it’s now also coming to the PS4 and Vita. I would play the hell out of this on the Vita.
My review of the new King’s Quest.
Track: X-Ray Visions | Artist: Clutch | Album: Psychic Warfare Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.
Kyonghwan “Tahra” Kim is a freelance concept artist and illustrator from Korea. Good thing he’sgot a book collecting his work already, because it saves me asking for one. You can see more of Kim’s work at his personal site and ArtStation page To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big…
Football (or, soccer) is the biggest sport on Earth. Everyone plays it, everyone gets it, everyone loves it. Everyone, that is, except for Americans. That’s a gross generalisation, of course. I know plenty of Americans who love football, and plenty of Europeans or Latin Americans who don’t. But if we’re being general, then my opening…
We’ve seen some good Witcher cosplay lately—unsurprising, given the love folks have for the characters and their snappy outfits—but you don’t see many people trying to take on Yenn. Cosplayer Niamash doesn’t give a shit, though, and along with photographer Catherine Badulina took it on and killed it in this shoot. You can see some…
Microsoft’s Xbox boss Phil Spencer has told The Verge that the company is working on a way for users to be able to stream their PC games to an Xbox One console. We knew that Windows 10 (which is out today) would let you do theopposite (Xbox One-to-PC), but PC-to-Xbox One streaming is new. “We…
Ian Jun Wei Chiew is an artist currently working at Sony’s Sucker Punch. In the past he’s worked on games like Forza 6 and a bunch of other stuff that hasn’t even been announced yet. His art is…well, just look at it. So fresh and so clean. You can see more of Ian’s work at…
Now if we can just scale it, we’ll be able to kick those Kaiju’s asses. Danny Benedettelli has built a LEGO model and exoskeleton that lets him control a small robot with his body. As MAKE reports, it uses LEGO Mindstorm and an Android phone, and while the idea of this kind of control is…
Can you hear that? Listen closely….it’s the ghost of a very cool 90s arcade game… Via RPS, Tokyo Warfare is an indie shooter for the PC that takes some very heavy cues from Namco’s classic Tokyo Wars, an arcade game from the mid-90’s that I remember spending way too much money on. The similarities are…
Most times, when you stop hearing about a game in development, it’s dead. It’s kinda fitting, then, that a game called Zombie Playground—which we first wrote about in 2012!—hasn’t just reappeared, but is playable on Early Access
In October 2014, Kevin Kanai Griffith, a Blizzard artist who had worked on both World of Warcraft and Diablo, passed away. This month, the company honours him with a big update for Diablo III. Patch 2.3.0 introduces something called Kanai’s Cube, a predecessor of the game’s “iconic” Horadric Cube. Blizzard says it’s “a huge new…
I was re-watching Patlabor 2 the other day, and there’s a scene in that movie that I just can’t get out of my head. It’s actually the scene that made me re-watch the film in the first place; I’d pulled it up last week when trying to explain—in a conversation about why I don’t watch…
Great indie games don’t just appear out of thin air. They’re the result of blood, sweat, tears and, most important of all, original ideas. And this might be the most original of all. If you’re confused, stick with it until 1:30.
Karakteris a German studio who have been working with HBO on Game of Thronessince the show’s inception. They’ve just sent along some of the stuff they did for season 5, which means snow zombies One of the things the team did was to for the first time create their concepts as 3D spaces, which meant…
You might have seen some Angry Birds arcade machines before, but they’ve just been big-screen ports of the mobile game. There’s an official Angry Birds arcade game coming, and it looks a lot more fun than the Angry Birds you’ve played and are now ignoring steadfastly. As Arcade Heroes reports, this isn’t your standard arcade…
Hope you weren’t super turbo excited for the Street Fighter V beta over the weekend, because the thing was a complete clusterfuck. So much so that the whole thing was called off, and won’t be back until “the experience is going to be a positive one for players.” The announcement was made in a very…
Had Xbox Live issues today? You’re not alone.
Manuel Dupong is a concept artist, matte painter and illustrator who is part of the Sense Collective You can see more of Manuel’s work at his ArtStation page and personal site To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you can save them as wallpaper), click on the…
This is a very cool toy. It’s also exactly the kind of thing I expect we’ll be seeing when Nintendo games finally hit mobile phones. Anyway, for now, this $20 Pokemon game (via Tiny Cartridge) is pretty simple: Snorlax is napping on a hammock, and you have to stack the Pikachus. Do it wrong and…
