Subnautica 2 – Hands-On with the Co-op Ocean Survival Hype

After a long and rather storied path, Subnautica 2 is finally out in early access, allowing people to once again test how deep their fear of the ocean goes. Or learn that they actually have a fear of the sea.

Why we need Mini Motorways and Mini Metro on Xbox and Game Pass

It's been a decade since Dinosaur Polo Club stumbled onto something special with their Mini series of games. From there, they've gone from strength to strength. So much so that now feels like the prime time to launch Mini Motorways on Xbox and Game Pass, accompanying it with Mini Metro.

Grappling across the territories with the upcoming RPG WrestleQuest 

I’ve had the privilege of going hands-on with a preview build of WrestleQuest in a bid to see whether it delivers a main event quality experience, or might end up jobbing on the undercard. And initial impressions certainly suggest it’s more likely to meet the high expectations wrestling fans will have, than not.

We’ve been hands-on with Tour de France 2023 on Steam, as well as the less exciting (for us) Pro Cycling Manager 2023 and whilst our full review will come around closer to the June 8th 2023 release, we’ve seen enough here to be able to provide a little insight.
