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…

Arkane’s Dishonored always felt like a secret Thief sequel, and that’s because it started life as one

Dishonored remains my personal favorite of Arkane Austin’s lineup. I appreciated the studio’s take on Prey, and even have a playthrough of Redfall under my belt (I’ll maintain it had the foundations of something great, though it never stuck the landing). It’s the 2012 sneak-em-up that won my heart, however. Atmospheric and stylish, it manages…

How 007 First Light Learns From And Moves Beyond Hitman

For the last 25 years, developer IO Interactive has been known primarily for the lauded Hitman franchise. In that series, players take control of Agent 47, a blank-slate killing machine who travels the world to hunt down targets and take them out in ways that either look like an accident or are untraceable back to…

CALX Is The Journey-Looking Action-RPG Soulslike I Never Knew I Needed Until I Played It

There’s a very specific genre of indie game I’m very fond of, but I’m not quite sure what the name of said genre is. Journey, Sable, Sword of the Sea, Jusant, Europa–all exploration-focused third-person adventure games, I guess? But that’s not it. There are light puzzle elements too, and yeah, they all have banger soundtracks……

GameMill’s Snoopy Game Has Been Hit With A Copyright Lawsuit

Image: GameMill Entertainment We don’t remember the Snoopy storyline where Charlie Brown and co. end up in a legal copyright battle, but that’s exactly what’s happening at the moment. Lee Mendelson Film Productions (the owner of “certain intellectual property” related to the Peanuts IP) has issued a legal complaint against publisher GameMill, accusing the latter…
