The last time I played Kingdom Come: Deliverance’s beta, things were looking a little rough. So it’s little surprise to hear that the game has been delayed. Originally due in 2015 before slipping to 2016, it’s now been pushed back to 2017.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the NES was infamous for being super hard. For many, the game unbeatable. On the PC, though, that was actually true!

Apple has a strained history with video games, as the company regulates what is and isn’t a “game.” It’s why Apple initially rejected Liyla And The Shadows of War, about a young Palestinian girl in Gaza, and said it “was not appropriate for the games category.” Apple has now reversed that decision. Despite the incredible…

TheCommonwealth has been thoroughly mapped by intrepid adventurers already, but with the new DLC, Fallout 4 players now have an entirely new landmass to mine and explore.

Whether it’s called Half-Life: Episode 3 or just Half-Life 3, here’s a video put together by CrowbCatwhich collects interviews dating back as far as 2006 in which Valve boss Gabe Newell talks about a game that’s never actually coming out. Gah. I need a drink after that.

Uncharted 4 sold over 2.7 million copies in week one, Sony said today. That’s both digital and physical, and it’s an especially impressive number when you consider that it’s only available on one console. Wonder if people over there are starting to rethink the whole “last Uncharted game” thing?

A new software update for the Oculus Rift VR headset that was supposed to “curb piracy and protect games and apps that developers have worked so hard to make” has actually had the opposite effect.

Reader Christopher Cayco is responsible for this incredible League of Legends artwork, which manages to cram every single Champion (up to Taliyah) into the one image. Chris did something last year, with his 721-Pokemon-in-one-pic. He recorded himself drawing it, so you can see how it was done here. You can also buy prints of the…
