An uncomfortable question I’ve been asking myself this morning is, now that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2‘s free Siege mode update is out, how much money I’d be convinced to part with if they, I dunno, added some Orks. Just a couple Orks. Few grots. Maybe a happy little squig. I ended up really enjoying the game after a rough start, and now this co-op horde mode is here, I think it’s time to just, you know, pretend the whole Tzeentch thing never happened. It’s a horde mode. Add some horde enemies. Happy little squig, you know? Look at him bounce. Wheeeeee.

Anyway the question is uncomfortable because my answer is, depressingly, however much they asked for. What do you mean Kill Team: Typhon is out of stock everywhere? Yes, I haven’t even opened the last two boxes, but I’m not sure what that has to do with anything. Here’s a trailer anyway. Warning: it’s got space marines taking themselves very seriously in it.

Today’s lineup has something for every kind of setup. Alienware prebuild discounts headline the list, offering some hefty savings across a range of configurations. That does for solid 1440p performance with a RTX 5070 Ti build or securing a 4K futureproof rig with a 5090. There’s also a strong showing from Flexispot with big cuts on their premium standing desks and ergonomic chair for 4th July, so if you’ve been meaning to upgrade your workspace, this is your sign.

Right, how about a look at Resident Evil: Requiem then ‘ey? Capcom revealed their latest entry in the horror series earlier this month at Summer Game Fest (after a little bit of a prank), but didn’t really show off any gameplay. It was more just a “hey, it’s real, and also here’s our protagonist Grace Ashcroft!” kind of reveal. Our own Edwin got to take a look at it in action around the same time, but a new trailer during today’s Capcom Spotlight has offered up a bit of a look for the rest of us now too.

Remember back in April when I told you about Abiotic Factor’s next update, Cold Fusion? No? What do you mean you can’t remember every single news post I’ve ever written? Fine, whatever, point is, it turns out that said update turned into the full on 1.0 release of the game. And now, as shown off in a swanky new trailer for developer Deep Field, the release date for the release of 1.0 has been revealed!

Do you… do you hear that? Can you feel it? That disgusting, gnawing feeling, a shiver down your spine because you know it’s coming for you… the Steam summer sale… Friends, Romans, country(insert pronoun here), it is unfortunately that time of year again, that time where you look at all of those games in your wishlist as you try to figure out which deal is the best, and which to leave for the next inevitable sale.

We’re always on the lookout for the best gaming laptop deals. Nothing comes close to matching the freedom of firing up your favorite competitive FPS and screaming at your screen in the middle of a coffee shop when your teammates don’t do what they should be (it’s definitely not a me problem).

I think Nuclear Throne is one of those games that will always be at least just a little bit relevant, in some shape or form. There are other indie games I’d rather play more than it from its era, but it kind of feels like the best representation of that period in indie games too. Throwback pixel art, a unique spin on both bullet hells and roguelike, a bangin’ soundtrack, it’s got the right mix of things to help it stand the test of time. And here we are now, the game approaching its 10th anniversary, arriving with a new update.

Sloclap’s foot-to-ball game Rematch is very good, and has been doing very well, with over three million sales to date, but some of us yet grieve for a time when kicks were reserved for torsos and limbs. Which is to say, some of us have been hoping that Sloclap might return to the martial arts realm in which it has hitherto made waves.

Right, so, you’ve read the headline. There’s now a Cyberpunk 2077 mod that adds a rubbish chute to Megabuilding H10 with full animations and everything, so that you can exit V’s default flat via a big slide down to ground level.

It’s a totally unnecessary thing for someone to have spend time adding to a video game. It’s a totally unnecessary thing for a person to download and add to a video game they’ve bought. It’s also totally glorious, to the point that none of that other stuff matters a jot.

Ok, so you remember how Stellar Blade arrived on PC and immediately there were more smutty mods than you could shake a fleshy stick at?

Well, the new Zone Kit modding tools Stalker 2 got as part of yesterday’s big patch have done something similar, but with memey jank.
