Start using maps to check out service stations in Scandinavia, as Euro Truck Simulator 2‘s Nordic Horizons expansion is set to release on November 27th.
This DLC was announced back in January 2024, and as it shuffles out of SCS Software’s ever-busy DLC pipeline, it’ll leave some coaches and a recently revealed trip to Ireland waiting in the traffic queue. The devs have also been doing plenty of cool existing area revamps.
Ok, before you get angry, all I know is that the Home Alone guy’s playing someone either in Caesar’s Legion or who dresses as a member of Caesar’s Legion, not that he’s nailed on to be wolf hat bloke. I just liked the headline. Now that disclaimer’s out of the way, Amazon’s Fallout TV series has gotten another trailer ahead of its December 17th debut.
As previous trailers have outlined, this chain of episodes is set in NEW VEGAS. That’s NEW VEGAS, the setting of obscure 2010 RPG Fallout: NEW VEGAS. There are characters, factions and things from NEW VEGAS, which the established cast will be interacting with because they’re heading to NEW VEGAS. Capische?
Over 200 staff at GTA 6 developers Rockstar North have signed a letter to management calling for the “immediate reinstatement” of 31 workers fired recently by the company. Rockstar claimed they fired these staffers for “gross misconduct”, subsequently accusing them of sharing confidential info publicly. UK union the IWGB, of which the fired staff were members, have accused Rockstar of union busting and filed legal claims against the company.
The union have also held protests outside Rockstar North and Take-Two’s UK offices.
If you sit and look at one of Assetto Corsa Rally’s gorgeously-rendered Alfa Romeos, Lancias, or Fiats in the car preview screens, there’s a palpable elegance and beauty to their forms.
Sadly, anyone watching me attempt to wrestle them through the Welsh woods or along tight stretches of French tarmac over the course of six hours so far would have rarely seen any elegant or beautiful driving. There are times, especially in long sweeping turns, when things start to feel as satisfying as they should. Most of the time though, Assetto Corsa Rally with a wheel feels a lot like you’re skating on ice, rather than the gravel and tarmac it currently offers.
Among the trio of new hardware devices Valve just announced for 2026 – which also include the Steam Frame VR headset and a redesigned Steam Controller – the new Steam Machine is probably the most surprising. Mainly because the original Steam Machines, a series of partner-built SteamOS mini-PCs, sank like rectangular stones upon launching in 2015.
Designed and built entirely in-house, the new model is a very different proposition, though it’s not so much the updated hardware that has Valve believing it’s time to give the Steam Machine another chance. According to engineers Yazan Aldehayyat and Pierre-Loup Griffais, the biggest problem faced by those doomed Machines was one that the Steam Deck’s Proton software has solved: a lack of SteamOS-compatible games.
Silent Hill f‘s got a fresh patch and it generally focuses on making the schoolgirl spookfest easier for those who want that option, or just aren’t too fussed about fights. There’s a new “casual” difficulty option and the chance to a certain sections during a new game plus run, plus some wider tweaks that should make the game less combat-intensive.
Wall World 2 isn’t as easy to explain as its predecessor. Yes, it is still a roguelike in which you split your time between piloting a robotic spider up and down a giant wall in search of weak spots from which you can mine deep into the cliff face, digging up minerals to spend upgrading your mecha-arachnid’s weapons, enhancing its ability to fight off periodic waves of pustule-covered aliens, until you either kill the biggest pustule-covered alien or die in the attempt. But now it’s become a much more complex game, embellishing both its mining and combat halves and thinning the divide between them.
This is going to take a little explaining, with a lot of changes falling into the plus and minus columns, so here’s an easy improvement to tide you over. You can now name your robospider; mine is called Nigel.
Start setting up tripwires and stretch your bow strings, a Horizon MMORPG dubbed Horizon Steel Frontiers has been fully revealed by Sony and developers NCSoft. As ever, it’s all about slapping up and taming big metal bears, birds and the like, this time as a custom character in a world filled with other players who’re also in the robo-hunting business.
Undoubtedly the only thing anyone in the PC world will be talking about for the next week is Valve’s trio of hardware announcements, the Steam Machine, the Steam Frame, and their new Steam Controller. But don’t forget about the old Steam Deck just yet! While Valve didn’t announce anything handheld related today, they have commented on where they’re at when it comes to anything like a Steam Deck 2.
How about that Steam Machine, ‘ey? Consoles are now computers and computers are now consoles. What a topsy turvy world we’re living in! I’m sure you have lots of questions, a lot of which I hope can be answered by James’ hands-on look at the thing, but you may still be wondering how you’ll know what games will actually work on it. The Steam Deck has its fancy verified badge that certifies that a game runs on the handheld, and it turns out that same badge is one that’ll come in handy for the Steam Machine.
