We can probably all agree that planting trees is pretty much universally good, right? I can’t really imagine a scenario where planting a tree is a bad thing, we need them to live after all. If you’re not into planting trees you’re probably an oil tycoon, or a squirrel with incredibly bad survival instincts. If you are, though, might I interest you in Treeplanter, a game whose name is exactly what it says on the tin? It was announced just yesterday, and looks quite, quite lovely.
Look, not every dating sim under the sun is insatiably horny, but I don’t think you can argue that Date Everything! isn’t. Like, the whole game is about how you can date everything, from a chair, to a clock, to a fridge. There’s literally 100 different objects you can date, this is somebody’s something for sure. And, as revealed in a new trailer earlier this week, as it turns out all you tabletop fiends out there will be able to date a twenty-sided die.
Bah, it’s never fun writing one of these, but unfortunately Myst and Riven developer Cyan Worlds have laid off 12 of its staff members this week, supposedly cutting the studio by about half. Cyan shared the news on its social media accounts yesterday, noting that “industry conditions” have “forced” the studio to “weigh the future health of our studio against the month-to-month realities of game development in 2025.”
Have you been Everywhere? Not like, literally, everywhere, but Everywhere, that sort of Roblox, sort of Fortnite, everything game from Build A Rocket Boy, a studio founded by ex-Rockstar dev and GTA 3 to 5 producer Leslie Benzies. That whole, uh, interactive experience or whatever you want to call it still seems to be in beta. But the first project spun off from it, MindsEye, a near-future action game that really just looks like slightly sci-fi GTA, now has a release date: June 10th, later this year. Except, I’m a little bit confused by it.
It’s click season, and Amazon’s Spring Sale has some absolute bangers lined up for your next mouse upgrade. Whether you’re grinding out ranked in Valorant or just need something smoother than your office-issued brick, now’s the time to strike. Prices are slashed, specs are stacked, and your K/D ratio is crying out for better gear.
We last wrote about immersive sim sequel System Shock 3 back in 2020, when then-developers Otherside sold the franchise to megapublisher Tencent. Development of the series later passed to remaster specialists Nightdive Studios, who’ve already overhauled the first game and are currently working on a remaster of System Shock 2 for release in June.
Now, Nightdive have popped up with news that the System Shock 3 project survives, in some form, and that we could get clarification as to its status “potentially within a year”. Don’t call it a comeback, do call it a sign of life.
I’ve never trusted anyone who says their keyboard is “just fine.” If your spacebar sounds like a rusty stapler and your RGB barely flickers, it’s time to stop pretending. You deserve better. The Amazon Spring Sale is stacked with gaming keyboards that actually keep up with your reflexes and don’t sound like you’re punching a calculator from 1994.
If your adventures take you from Teyvat to Terminal 5, you’ll want this beast of a power bank riding shotgun. UGREEN has teamed up with Genshin Impact to drop a limited-edition Nexode 20000mAh power bank featuring the radiant Kinich design. It’s cool, powerful, and—thanks to the Amazon Spring Sale — cheaper than ever in both the US and UK.
Is there a Marvel supervillain themed around PC game memory requirements? Let’s assume that there is, and that her name is Dr RAMsbottom. For too long has Dr RAMsbottom – aka the Bottlenecking Belle, aka Zero Sub Sixty – plagued the lives of Marvel Rivals players. For too long has she reduced our superheroic exploits to an unsightly stop-motion parade.
Be of good heart, ye Rivals, for the boffins at NetEase (the ones that weren’t suddenly laid off in February) are devising some countermeasures. Specifically, they’re thinking about adding a box you can tick to somehow cut back the game’s memory usage “significantly” and improve your frame rate.
Horizon: Zero Dawn composer Joris de Man has expressed a tentative interest in the return of Guerrilla’s Killzone shooter series, which was once touted as PlayStation’s answer to Halo, Call Of Duty, and Gears Of War.
