You might’ve caught a few vibes here and there that the good folks at Sandfall might’ve had a Souls game or two on the brain while designing Clair Obscur.

Fresh Pokémon Card Madness Has GameStop Limiting Collectors To One Box Each
20.5.2025
The Pokémon card scene is getting out of control again. Things appeared to die down for a bit following a pandemic-fueled collecting frenzy, but new sets in 2025 are selling out and prices on the secondhand market are skyrocketing. And it’s coming to a head at GameStop, the unlikely new epicenter...
GameStop Is Selling A Ton Of Big Games For Just $15
20.5.2025
GameStop must be trying to clear out some space, because the national video game retailer is selling a huge assortment of AAA games, remakes, and recent releases for $15 and $30 as part of a new sale. So why not take advantage of this corporate clean-up and grab some big games for less than half...

20.5.2025
We still don’t know much about the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel currently in the works at CD Projekt Red. Development on the RPG, code-named “Orion,” is in full swing after the studio wrapped support for the original game last year, but the team is still keeping most details about it under wraps, other...

20.5.2025

One of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's big innovations is adding a dodge, parry, and counter system to its otherwise traditional turn-based battles. It’s a clever tweak that helps keep combat engrossing for its 30+ hour journey and also an incredible opportunity for the game’s developers to troll...

Borderlands 4 Boss Says 'A Real Fan' Will Pay $80 For Games
20.5.2025
Game prices have been the subject of controversy since games had prices. How much is a game worth? What qualities or aspects of a game justify a higher price tag, or demand a lower one? Does a game that costs $70 deserve the same critical reaction as the identical game but $30? All this has gone...
Ubisoft Explains Why You Can't Kill Animals In Assassin's Creed Shadows
19.5.2025
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is a very good game that animal lovers can enjoy because there’s no way to harm a single creature in the game (except for people, of course). That’s a first for the franchise and I wanted to learn why Ubisoft went this route for its latest open-world adventure. Read more

19.5.2025
For less than the price of a Mission Impossible 8 movie ticket, you can hear the wind howling across three hardware generations just like our dear friend Geralt of Rivia.

Here's What Cyberpunk 2077, Pokémon Scarlet And Violet, And More Look Like On Switch 2
19.5.2025
Notoriously, Cyberpunk 2077 looked so bad on PlayStation when it launched back in 2020 that Sony took the unprecedented step of completely removing it from their store until it was better optimized. That might imply an uphill battle for getting a port to look and play well on Switch 2, but recent...
Smash Bros. Melee Player Loses $2,000 To Rare Pokémon Stadium Glitch
19.5.2025
I can think of a lot of ways to lose a major Smash Bros. Melee tournament with $2,000 on the line, but this might be one of the strangest. Fourth-ranked Kurtis “moky” Pratt was in the Full House 2025 finals, but idly wavedashing in-between level transformations on the Pokémon Stadium stage sent...

19.5.2025
Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima’s return to the stealth shooter genre, Physint, was first revealed by Sony over a year ago. Called a “next-gen” espionage game at the time, the director recently said it’s still “five or six” years away from release, all but confirming it’ll be developed...
An Artist Spots Her Work In Bungie's Marathon, Nintendo Isn't Sending Out Switch 2 Review Units Until The Last Minute, And More Of The Week's Top Stories
17.5.2025
This week, it was reported that in a strange turn of events, Nintendo may not be sending out Switch 2 units to would-be reviewers before launch, which could result in a dearth of coverage at a time when you’d expect to see impressions and reviews of the console plastered across every gaming site...
Kotaku’s Weekend Guide: 4 Cool Games We’re Vibing With As May Evaporates Before Our Eyes
16.5.2025
This week was an odd one. We shook our heads at Bungie doing an absurdly obvious plagiarism with Marathon and were provided no assurances the Switch 2 will stay at its launch price (it could go higher), all while Sony also called to say “hey, the PS5 might have a price hike.” We’re also dealing...
Pokémon TCG's Return Of Team Rocket Is A Triumph
16.5.2025
Oh it’s fun to have good news! The latest set from the Pokémon TCG, Scarlet & Violet Destined Rivals, is a top-notch collection of cards bursting with Team Rocket antics, which sports (in my limited experience, at least) pull rates I don’t believe we’ve seen in this era. Having torn open 55 packs...
GTA 6 Needed More Time To Achieve Vision With 'No Limits' And Probably Won't Be Delayed Again
15.5.2025
One of the biggest questions coming into 2025 was whether Grand Theft Auto 6 would somehow get delayed. Earlier this month, Rockstar Games revealed it would. The head of its parent company now says that delay was necessary to help the studio deliver the game without compromises. Will it get delayed...
