Who doesn’t want to dress up as fried seafood in the privacy on their own home? Japanese online retailer Felissimo is offering this “Wearable Fried Shrimp Sleeping Bag.” Because, of course it is. It looks rather soft and comes with some snuggly socks that look like a shrimp tail. If you are wondering what you…

This is a good idea. A very, very good idea. Starting this month in South Korea, Krispy Kreme is rolling out Pokémon doughnuts. You can get a Squirtle for 2,000 won (US$1.80), a Pikachu for 2,500 won ($2.27), or Pokéball for 1,800 won each. You can also order a “Pokémon Dozen” for 15,000 won ($16.30).…
Persona 5 characters and costumes look cool in, well, Persona 5. But how do they look in Capcom’s Dragon’s Dogma Online? Kinda strange! Famitsu and 4Gamer report that Capcom is collaborating with Atlus to bring four P5 outfits (the Phantom Suit, the Panther Rubber, the Trickster Suit, and Trickster Rubber) to its free-to-play title Dragon’s…

One of the off-court activities you can take part in while playing NBA 2K17 is…attending a comic con. Complete with cosplayers. Unexpected, but awesome.
There is nothing funny about the real Donald Trump, a raisin company mascot channelling the spirit of an internet commenter. What is funny is the voice actor behind Futurama’s Zapp Brannigan reading some of Trump’s dumbest quotes in character. UPDATE, SEP 28: Now featuring snippets from the first Presidential debate. ORIGINAL POST, AUGUST 11: Billy…
Tribes Ascend, a 2012 game which in 2015 made a surprising comeback from the dead, is now dead once more, with developers Hi-Rez today issuing the game’s final patch to a community that’s understandably upset, if also accepting of the game’s fate. There’s a sad poetry to the fact I wrote about the game’s update…
Cincinnati doesn’t have a team, so Cleveland it is. Bleacher Report likes to simulate basketball hypotheticals using the NBA 2K series, and while most of them are real and actual things/rumours, others are more fanciful. Like this, in which a dead gorilla/dead meme is used to try and match Golden State’s new superteam.
Stardew Valley’s long-awaited 1.1 update is almost here. You can take the beta for a spin right now, if you’re willing to dirty your precious farming hands with a handful of bugs. The Steam farming sensation’s creator, Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone, recently unveiled the update’s full change log. Highlights include new marriage options (Shane and Emily),…
The first volume of the comic Steve Lichman is very good. There’s now a second volume up on Kickstarter

With the help of ThatGuyYouKnowwwand The Will Box, these guys—wearing recycled cardboard boxes, pieces of paper, tanktops and pieces of old Destiny cosplay—bring Overwatch’s Play of the Game animations to life in a way…
Over the last few years, Final Fantasy XIV has suffered from a public spam problem. In every major zone, bots would flood general chat with “MONEY FOR GIL” ads, prompting players to switch their statuses to “busy.” FFXIV’s Tuesday patch made some necessary changes that allows players to more easily report real money transfer (“RMT”)…
Battlerite is a new arena brawler that’s been near the top of Steam’s charts for a week, with no signs of slowing down. It looks like a MOBA, walks like a MOBA, and even talks like a MOBA, but reviewers love it because it actually isn’t a MOBA. Battlerite takes the basic MOBA foundation and…
Playstation Plus users are looking at a powerhouse month for games in October. If you’ve never played Resident Evil, there’s officially no excuse for missing out on its wonderful remaster. Remember, these games might be “free” but still require an active Playstation Plus membership to download and play. Here’s the lineup for October: Playstation 4…
Here’s the first 20 minutes of Gears of War 4‘s campaign. It’s got scripted action, roadie running, Lancers, grunting, and very detailed explosions. Looks like the Gears of yesteryear(s), but with more hardware muscle behind it. If that’s what you were hoping for, this video will probably make you pretty happy.
Of all the weird and wonderful characters in Nintendo’s pantheon of talking animals/plumbers/fungi, I think I like Animal Crossing’s Resetti the best. Even if he is a big ol’ meanie. If you haven’t played the series, Resetti is a mole that you sometimes encounter. Not in your regular daily activities of walking around, fishing and…
A brief history for those who are new to Kotaku and our on-again, off-again obsession with this game. Destiny is a first-person action game in which players fly around the solar system fighting with aliens, evil cyborgs, and occasionally each other. Collectively, our staff has played over 2,000 hours. I account for more than half…
Two Carnegie Mellon University students have programmed the ultimate killing machine. If you face off against their AI in Doom’s deathmatch, that is. As originally reported by NextBigFuture, this new bot (affectionately named Arnold) uses a host of complex mechanisms to play Doom better than any human possibly can. Created by Guillaume Lample and Devendra…
