They’re Coming Out of the Walls in Aliens: Fireteam Elite

A Left 4 Dead style-game set in the Alien universe sounds like a match made in heaven, but as anyone will tell you, the Alien franchise has a very hit-and-miss past in videogame land. However, you can be the judge of the latest title, as Aliens: Fireteam Elite launches today on Xbox, PlayStation and PC.

Madden NFL 22 Review

Almost every change in Madden NFL 22 this year is of a positive nature, and it is easily one of the best entries in recent years. Franchise mode is in great shape, and set to get better as the year progresses, and it almost feels like EA Sports are reminding themselves that not everyone wants to just play Ultimate Team. Some modes such as The Yard and Superstar KO still feel tacked on but at least offer a bite-size gameplay experience if time is limited.

art of rally Review

Fundamentally, art of rally on Xbox is a more than competent rally game that proves you don’t need a fully licensed game to make an interesting arcade racer. Initially players will be sold on the unique and gorgeous art style, but it is here where the issues reside. The design suffers as a result of porting the game to Xbox consoles with problems we shouldn’t be seeing on this new flagship console.

MVP and Dynasty Edition Early Access Starts Now in Madden NFL 22

The 102nd NFL Season is just around the corner which means the annual Madden NFL release is here too. Along with the increased season, Madden NFL 22 on Xbox has gone through some major changes also. And if you were one of those who paid a bit extra for the MVP and Dynasty Editions of this years virtual American Football well today is the day you can play it in full.

Exclusive interview – Shining light on Moonglow Bay with Bunnyhug Games

The second we heard of Moonglow Bay, we knew we just had to know more. Perhaps it was the visual artstyle, or maybe it was the overall premise. In fact, it may just have been the chance to take in a little bit of fishing whilst getting on with life. Whatever it was though, Moonglow seemingly oozes quality. Thankfully the team at Bunnyhug Games were up for a bit of a chat, happily divulging more info prior to Moonglow Bay releasing on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC and Xbox Game Pass soon.

The Stunning Art of Rally Launches on Xbox, Switch and Game Pass

The old argument of whether games can be art rages on but with art of rally launching today on Xbox and Nintendo Switch we can answer that question with a resounding ‘YES’! And it comes via Game Pass too.

Nostalgic Narrative Adventure Button City Arrives on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, Switch and PC

Get ready to relive those Saturday morning cartoons you grew up with in the '90s as Button City arrives today for Xbox Series X|S, Steam, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. Suitable for all ages, but mainly kids and big kids who simply refuse to grow up.

Button City Review

Main narrative-wise, Button City is first rate. It’s a charming throwback to cartoons of the ‘90s that kids and big kids will enjoy in equal measure. Both Gobabots and rEvolution Racer are also decent minigames in their own right as well, but there is an over-reliance on fetch quests in order to progress the story. It’s after the linear first hour of Button City where the game opens up, with a lot to explore and fully engross yourself in.

Finish the Raid in CrossCode: A New Home DLC

Arriving today on consoles after receiving critical acclaim on PC is the epilogue DLC for CrossCode - A New Home.

Gaps by POWGI Review

Gaps by POWGI is one of the simplest word puzzlers from Lightwood Games in terms of concept, but this helps it by not overcomplicating things that could potentially draw away interested parties. The puns are back too which is only ever a good thing, as is the very easy Gamerscore.

7 of the Easiest Xbox Achievements of July 2021

This latest month has played host to a heatwave that has seen sales of £15 Argos fans skyrocket, as if they make any noticeable difference in this heat. So, most of our easy achievements for the month of July will reflect this hot weather, and how we simply cannot function properly to even score some easy Gamerscore.

MouseBot: Escape from CatLab Review

The challenge is certainly present in MouseBot, but it never feels unfair and with the near instant restarts any failures are forgotten almost immediately, not only as you strive to do better for yourself, but also your little MouseBot too.

Watch Dogs: Legion – Bloodline Review

Watch Dogs: Legion – Bloodline is easily better than the main game. Removing recruitable NPCs in favour of established characters means every interaction is more meaningful, both between characters and with the player themselves.

Complete the trials of MouseBot: Escape from CatLab

You can’t go wrong with Vector Unit; their quirky titles such as the Riptide series and Beach Buggy Racing always bring a smile to the players face. Their latest offering, MouseBot: Escape from CatLab subverts the domestic animal food chain into a laboratory-based platformer that releases on Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and PC today.

A Plague Tale: Innocence Xbox Series X Review

A Plague Tale: Innocence is superb. If you’ve ever played the PlayStation exclusive The Last of Us, you will feel very at home with A Plague Tale. Already regarded as one of the best games of the last generation, the next-gen improvements solidify it into a must play-title.
