Inefficient And Laborious – The Ongoing Path To Making Deltarune

This feature originally appeared in issue 372 (The Outer Worlds 2) of Game Informer magazine. Special thanks to Deltarune’s enthusiastic and creative community for allowing us to highlight a small sampling of their impressive fan art! When I asked Toby Fox, the developer behind the viral hit, Undertale (and now its spin-off Deltarune), if I…

Bandai Namco Warns Tamagotchi Owners About Death Glitch

Hard enough to explain to a kid what happened to their goldfish Bubbles, but imagine sitting them down for a lecture about why their Tamagotchi had to go farm too. Seems you can take the digital pocket pets out of Y2K, but you can’t get the Y2K bug out of your digital pets. This week…

Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO Releasing Multiple Character Packs On Switch 1 & 2 This Week

“The fight isn’t over”. Although Dragon Ball Sparking! ZERO eventually got a release on the Switch and Switch 2 last year, Nintendo players have been waiting on some paid DLC. In an update, it seems the launch date for the Daima Character Packs 1&2 and Shallot Character Pack have now been locked in for a…

Exodus: The Helium Sea gets first chapter preview — read it

Exodus, the forthcoming space RPG that some (hello) have described as the second coming of Mass Effect, is already so much more than a video game. Although Exodus, developed by Archetype Entertainment, won’t be out until 2027, its wider canon already encompasses a Prime Video Secret Level episode, a tabletop RPG, and a novel duology…

The first big Mewgenics update is great news for Mages, with a wealth of balance changes

It’s been a long time in the oven, but Mewgenics update 1.1 is finally live. The cat-collecting strategy game has followed beautifully in the steps of its older sibling, The Binding of Isaac. It managed to win my heart despite me not particularly caring for its gross-out tendencies, offering a tightly designed blend of positional…

The Blood of Dawnwalker Preview – Just How Choice-Driven Is Rebel Wolves’ Debut Game?

For this Game Informer issue cover story, we traveled to Warsaw, Poland, to visit Rebel Wolves, a studio co-founded by The Witcher 3 director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, to learn all about the company’s debut game, The Blood of Dawnwalker. During the trip, we spent plenty of time drilling into how the team is capitalizing on the…

Forza Horizon 6 AI Drivatar Called Out For Driving Like A Lunatic

There are plenty of regular people who have become internet legends through their video game exploits. Elden Ring’s Let Me Solo Her, World of Warcraft’s Leeroy Jenkins, and that dude killed Lord British in Ultima Online; all regular joes who have captivated the hearts by transcending the faceless boundaries of multiplayer games. However, those three…

Talos Principle 3 will definitely be the last one in the series, because ‘so many videogames just don’t end, and then you have an endless kind of cliffhanger’

The Talos Principle 3 is coming, and I’m very excited: What initially attracted my attention as a sideshow curiosity from the Serious Sam guys quickly proved itself a clever puzzle game powered by an unexpectedly compelling and thoughtful narrative. I like it a lot! And so it’s kind of a bummer that Croteam insists, with…
