After fans have been speculating since its reveal, Insomniac’s upcoming Wolverine game is confirmed to be in the same universe as Marvel’s Spider-Man . Marvel’s Wolverine was announced two years ago now (a fact that has uncomfortably reminded me of the passage of time), and we haven’t seen or heard that much of it since....

Zelda: Breath of the Wild is now MetaCritic’s #1 game in 2025, and that just feels weird The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has muscled its way into MetaCritic’s list of the top-rated games released in 2025.

The reason is fairly standard, and it has to do with older games being re-released for the new console....

32 years later, Sonic Superstars proves that new 2D Sonic games can still be good – hands-on This is a different beast than Sonic Mania, and it’s a great, fun, love letter to everyone’s favourite little hedgehog. The weird fallow years for Sonic the Hedgehog are over. Last year’s Sonic Frontiers managed to buck a trend of less-than-impressive 3D Sonic games, and was a commercial and critical success for Sega.
