In MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls, Hulk receives a feral reinterpretation that separates him from the familiar Avengers powerhouse. Although he once fought alongside Captain America and Iron Man to protect Earth, his overwhelming strength and instability eventually convinced the government, S.H.I.E.L.D., and even his former teammates that he had become too dangerous. Hulk was therefore exiled to the Savage Land, where he now lives among wild creatures and the remnants of prehistoric civilization. While his life has become quieter, his...

Steam really does have a festival for just about everything. After events celebrating board games, trains, hidden objects, social deduction, typing, oceans and even horses, Valve is now turning its attention to pins, pegs and everything in between.

Then you notice that it was built by a solo developer, recently launched into Early Access, peaked at around 12,500 concurrent players on Steam, and is sitting at roughly 97% positive reviews. Suddenly, this little pixel factory game looks a lot more interesting. Developed by Erik Lantto, Sandustry takes the familiar joy of building increasingly complicated production lines and mixes it...

Phantom Blade Zero has spent years turning heads with some of the slickest combat footage we have seen from an upcoming action game. Fast sword clashes, dramatic parries and over-the-top kung fu choreography have always been the main attraction. But during its latest State of Play Gameplay Deep Dive, S-GAME finally showed that there is a proper RPG hiding underneath all that stylish action. Previous trailers mostly focused on spectacle. Boss fights, cinematic duels and flashy weapon moves made the...

After years of mysterious trailers, cryptic interviews and enough unanswered questions to fill a Keyblade-shaped filing cabinet, Kingdom Hearts IV has finally decided to show us what it actually looks like to play. The latest extended trailer offers a much meatier look at the long-awaited sequel, with plenty of gameplay footage and, perhaps most importantly, confirmation that several of Disney's biggest icons will be stepping into the spotlight.

You have barely recovered from the last wave of releases, but the gaming calendar has apparently decided that mercy is overrated. This week brings a particularly strange assortment of games, ranging from cosmic horror and time-travel drama to punishing Soulslike combat, enormous mechs and another trip into the radioactive nightmare of the Zone.

Sony’s reported plans to phase out support for new physical PlayStation discs have sparked plenty of backlash, but one industry analyst believes the move was always likely to happen. With the PlayStation 6 potentially arriving with a price tag of around $1,000 / €860 / £740, Sony could use the extra revenue from digital games and PlayStation Plus to help subsidize its next-generation console. The shift away from physical games has understandably been criticized as another way for Sony to...

Intel's handheld lineup could soon have a cheaper option. According to leaker Jaykihn, who has a pretty solid track record with Intel leaks, the company may be preparing a Panther Lake chip designed for handheld gaming with a "4+0+4+4" configuration. In plain English, that means four P-cores, no E-cores, four low-power E-cores, and four Xe3 graphics cores. That's a much smaller setup than the Arc G3 and G3 Extreme chips currently found in high-end handhelds such...
