HoYoverse teases Honkai Star Rail 3.0 characters, and oh by the way, Remembrance is a new playable path How’s that for character drip marketing Image credit:HoYoverse HoYoverse might be gearing up to set Sunday and Tingyun – Fugue, whom I affectionately call Fugueyun or Deadyun (IYKYK), loose in Honkai Star Rail, but that hasn’t stopped them from teasing HSR 3.0’s characters already. First up was The Herta, a 5-star variant of the Herta puppet that’s been present at launch with an impressive hat and, surprisingly, the same path and element as her 4-star version – Ice and Erudition....

Image credit:The Pokemon Company It’s Pokemon Gold and Silver’s 25th anniversary next week, and to mark the occasion The Pokemon Company is releasing some incredibly good merch. Given that Pokemon is obviously targeted towards kids, its merch can oftentimes skew in favour of that target audience, even if a big part of the games overall audience are millennials that can’t accept they’re getting older....

If Absolum, from the devs behind Streets of Rage 4, is a sign of where beat-’em-ups are headed, I’m excited for the future of the genre I got hands on time with Dotemu’s and Guard Crush Games’ next beat-’em-up, and as far as first impressions go, this one’s a scorcher. Image credit:DotEmu It’s unfair and frankly stupid to say that beat-’em-ups are a “solved” genre. There is no such thing. Especially in recent years, with indie developers pushing boundaries across the medium, we’ve seen all manner of ambitious releases revitalize norms in new and refreshing ways....

If you can believe it, Pokemon TCG Pocket has soared past $120 million in revenue in less than a month The game is set to beat Pokemon Go’s 2016 revenue figure.

Is Honkai Star Rail’s fried chicken crossover worth a trip to Bristol? Somehow, one of the biggest games in the world has done a deal with a tiny chicken shop chain in the south west. Image credit:VG247, miHoYo Bristol is unlikely to be the focus of a gaming news story. Not unless they do another Wallace & Gromit game, or something. So imagine our surprise when the news hit last week that Honkai: Star Rail , the turn based gacha mega-hit from the same stable as the unstoppable Genshin Impact , was doing a promotional meal deal with… Miss Millie’s ....

Is this Nintendo Switch mum simulator a better mum than me? Another £0.89 eShop ideal to compare yourself against, yay! Image credit:VG247 Part of motherhood is the inescapable feeling and conditioning that you’re probably doing something wrong. You should just be a natural at juggling parental responsibilities, looking after your home, and keeping up with your career, and be able to do it all with a serene smile on your face....

It looks like Final Fantasy 16 will be missing something at launch – but you won’t be sad about it Final Fantasy 16 looks like it’ll be bucking a trend that most modern games have been following, showing confidence from the developer. Final Fantasy 16 looks pretty good, ey? Our own Alex Donaldson had some massive glowing praise for the game in his preview that went live yesterday, and (in an earlier preview) I also didn’t have a bad word to say about it ....

Jujutsu Kaisen is officially the world’s most popular anime, and I can’t think of a series that deserves it more Yes, I know you think your favourite series should be the most popular, but it isn’t so pipe down. Image credit:MAPPA/ Gege Akutami This might come as a bit of a surprise to some of you, but Jujutsu Kaisen is the most popular anime in the world. I’m not being hyperbolic, I’m not just being biassed and pulling out of my ass: the actual Guinness World Records said so ....

No one should ever joke about casting Keanu Reeves in anything. Image credit:Amazon/ FromSoftware None of us expected someone like Keanu Reeves to appear in an animated short based on Armored Core , and it sounds like Secret Level’s executive producer was the most surprised of all. When Reeves was spotted in that first Secret Level trailer, it obviously came as a bit of a shock - he’s a big name actor after all, and even if he’s in Cyberpunk 2077 , I certainly wouldn’t have guessed we’d see him in an Armored Core animated short....

Keen to play Palworld on PS5? A Tokyo Game Show listing looks like it could be the latest hint at a port It’s still worth waiting for an official announcement before you start to Celaray-te.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is great, but I wish Insomniac would bring back Sunset Overdrive It might have released almost a decade ago, but I’m still thinking about it. It’s not exactly controversial to say that Insomniac’s take on the one and only Spider-Man is pretty damn good. Both the first game and its recently released sequel have their share of problems, but man, swinging round New York is just damn simple fun....

Metal Slug Tactics wins by adding its own design ideas to a well-trodden path, and avoiding cheap nostalgia Its reverence for the property is an advantage, not a weakness. Image credit:Dotemu, Gamera Games Metal Slug Tactics gets many things right, but perhaps its most impressive achievement is that it isn’t bogged down nor limited by the IP it honors. We’ve seen it happen time and again: “This is just like those original games you like but (x)....
