Someone Cosplayed An Entire Sonic Level And It Looks Incredible
25.10.2024
One thing to know about me is that I love a costume with a concept. Halloween, when you’re an adult, is no longer about candy, it’s about serving and wowing people with your commitment to the bit.

25.10.2024
Team Fortress 2 launched back in 2007 and since then Valve has continued to update the class-based FPS, though not always as frequently as fans might want. And during all those updates over nearly two decades, a bug involving Blu Team Scout’s pants being the wrong color was never fixed. That...
Netflix Renews Its Tomb Raider Animation, Just Two Weeks After The First Season Aired
25.10.2024
Starting a new show on Netflix is always a gamble. The streamer has a habit of just gruesomely canceling shows, even when they have great ratings and are adored by their audience. (Kaos, I’m still mourning you.) There rarely seems to be any rhyme or reason, making it such a risk to invest in...
The 6 Thirstiest Mods For Stardew Valley
25.10.2024
Whenever Stardew Valley comes up in everyday conversation, it’s always alongside terminology like “cozy” and “casual.” You never hear anyone call the game “sexy.” Why not? Well, for starters, it’s because the game’s made entirely of pixel art, which doesn’t allow for much experimentation...

It’s the 20th Anniversary of World of Warcraft, and Blizzard’s long-standing fantasy MMORPG is celebrating with, among other things, an extremely luxe mount. Say hello to the Gilded Brutosaur, which will cost you $90. That’s more than Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, or roughly the equivalent of...
Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero's Broly's Ring Is Majorly Glitched
25.10.2024
Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero’s massive 180+ character roster isn’t exactly balanced, which fans are admittedly happy with. Helping to offset (or further expand) these differences are various Ability Items that provide characters with helpful buffs. One of, if not the rarest Ability Item is called...
Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, As Told By Steam Reviews
25.10.2024
Capcom has been knocking it out of the park with its horror remakes in recent years (perhaps with the exception of Resident Evil 3, though I still enjoyed that one immensely). If you look at titles such as Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 2, they clearly know how to modernize famous franchises...

Fortnite Flays Peely, World Cheers
24.10.2024
Over the last few years, Peely, a disturbing anthropomorphized banana, has become Fortnite’s de facto mascot. We here at Kotaku don’t like that. This creepy bastard keeps coming back, even after death. So we are all happy to learn that Fortnite has finally skinned and flayed Peely. The bastard...
