Last week, peripheral maker NYXI unveiled a new GameCube-themed Nintendo Switch controller called the NYXI Wizard.
As you can see, it takes a lot of inspiration from the GameCube pad, right down to the original indigo colour. It also promises “no drifting” and comes with a turbo function, an ergonomic slip-free design and replaceable joysticks. It’s probably going to be a great match with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Lies of P hopes to fix, as revealed in a new gameplay trailer designed to show off how nice it looks on a Radeon RX 7900 XTX. I will likely never own a Radeon RX 7900 XTX, but it’s looking increasingly likely that I will buy Lies of P.
It’s a Soulslike that plonks you into an alternate Victorian London where people got real good at inventing creepy automata. You play as the big P himself, Pinocchio.

The Last of Us Part I is a remake of the 2013 PlayStation classic and is the basis for Season 1 of HBO Max’s series that just had its debut this past weekend, although the team behind the show has said it will “deviate greatly” in some episodes.
In our review of the series premiere of HBO’s The Last of Us, we said that it “thrillingly lays the foundations for the emotional torture ready to hurt us along every step of its journey. A cast at the top of their game with technical artistry behind the camera to match, it throws us into a world on the edge of cataclysm before brilliantly catapulting us into one that has been plunged into the depths of it.”
As for the game, we said, “A gorgeous and well-honed remake of one of the biggest boppers in the PlayStation pantheon, The Last of Us Part I is the best way to play – or replay – Naughty Dog’s esteemed survival classic.”

He is also, apparently, quite bad – at least according to project lead Ben Brode, who’s consulted his big statistics bank to discover that he appears in more losing decks than anyone else.
Huh. I suppose I can stop agonising over whether he has a place in my latest Patriot deck.
Valheim developers Iron Gate have decided it’s time to start cracking on their next biome update. They’re now chiselling away at the Ashlands, a volcanic “land of the dead” packed with skeletal horrors.
It’ll be a while before all the horrors are ready, but a smaller update with clothes and haircuts is on the way soon.
The scales are tipping.
