Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy: From Stealth to Near-Soulslike Combat - Hands-On Preview

When Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy had first announced that it was moving away from its stealth-heavy gameplay, we were a bit skeptical. But now that we've had the chance to give it a try, has our opinion been swayed? Can Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy land with the same audience that loved the first two games

Stealth's been replaced with scrappy swordfighting in Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, but what I really miss are the rat swarms

I've never mastered the combat of Sekiro and Sifu. They're games that demand you recognise an incoming attack and match it with millisecond perfect parries and dodges. Success sees you turn a foe's assaults against them, ducking under their swinging blade and popping up behind them to deliver a precise punch to their k...

I've played Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy and it's very different to Requiem and Innocence - but that's not necessarily a bad thing

It's all-change in Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. This series - known for stealth and the emotional adventures of brother and sister Hugo and Amicia in plague-ridden France - now no longer has stealth, no longer has Amicia and Hugo, and no longer takes place in France. But - and I say this as someone fond of the Plag...

It will also make four hundred quintillion dollars.No wonder, then, that its...

Where to find Caine in Gothic Remake

Tracking down Caine in Gothic Remake took me longer than I'd like to admit. This missing mole is apparently somewhere in the Swamp Camp, but if you're ever been to that sprawling mess of ramshackle huts and walkways, you'll understand the issue. If you recall that Caine is Cor Kalom's apprentice, then speaking to him w...

Hellblade studio kills its mysterious 'horrors of the mind' project so it can make a new Senua game instead

Back in 2020, Senua studio Ninja Theory announced a new game, Project Mara, that aimed to "recreate the horrors of the mind" with a "real-world and grounded representation of mental terror." A year later we got a look at the game's absurdly photorealistic apartment, but beyond that it pretty much fell off the radar unt...

Vampire: The Masquerade - Eternal Whispers is a narrative-driven CRPG channelling Disco Elysium

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 was a considerable disappointment, but that isn't stopping the IP's video game efforts in their tracks. In fact, Eternal Whispers - a new CRPG taking more than a few cues from Disco Elysium - might be the balm we need. Read more

Resident Evil Veronica is the remake I'm most excited about, because the original was such a mess

Of all the Resident Evil remakes to burst forth from Capcom like zombie-spawn in recent years, I am most intrigued by the just-unveiled Resident Evil Veronica. The original game, released in 2000 for sixth generation consoles, is an important entry in the series, but it's also a mess that probably stands the most to be...

To the delight of its skateboarding aliens, I have failed to solo Saturday morning cartoon-styled co-op roguelike Maximum Thunderness as if I have four hands

A mass of flailing fingers flop against my desk. I'm doing badly at playing cartoony roguelike shooter Maximum Thunderness with a controller. The fact I'm trying to play its demo on mouse and keyboard at the same time, in order to appreciate the co-op element of the game's battles with skateboarding aliens, probably is...
