Activision Blizzard’s QA Department Seems Like A Hellhole


Long hours. Low pay. Tremendous instability.

Yet for QA testers at Activision Blizzard, a company that has come under fire in recent...

Ex-Far Cry Dev's New Game Studio Is 4.7 Percent Women, Ready For More


Assassin’s Creed III director and former Stadia developer Alex Hutchinson is back with a new studio called Raccoon Logic, as well as some old excuses about its lack of diversity.

Studio Dunks On Cyberpunk 2077 While Explaining Open-World Game Delay


If players are going to dunk on Cyberpunk 2077, it was only a matter of time before other game studios did it too. Black Desert Online creator, South Korea’s Pearl Abyss, has announced a delay of their forthcoming open-world game Crimson Desert, throwing shade on CDPR’s disastrous 2020 launch...

The Best Video Games Of 2021 So Far


Let’s get this out of the way: Given all the ~everything~, simply releasing a game in 2021 is nothing short of a miracle. Every single one deserves a round of applause. But some, let’s face it, are better than others. As summer wraps, we thought it’d be fun to shine a light on the games that have...

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Of Venice: The Kotaku Review


One of my favourite board games of all time is V-Commandos, a co-op World War Two game that’s all about stealth and covert warfare. Now, years later, the team behind that game have taken everything they’ve learned from 1945 and put it to work on something from around 1459 instead: Assassin’s...

Destiny 2 Players Think [Redacted] Has Returned

It's Like Classic Fallout RPGs, But There's A Puke Button


Death Trash’s whole vibe is summed up early in its beginning area, where the tutorial messages ask you to puke. Before you earn more flashy powers like lightning bolts and poisonous blood, the game’s dedicated ability button (‘F’ by default, in case you were wondering) is just for making your...

Splitgate Players Keep Forgetting To Use The Damn Portals


Last night, I played some Splitgate. I found a quiet spot on the map and placed a portal, then I ran out towards the middle of the arena where enemies could be seen and placed a second portal. Back at my quiet spot, I posted up with a rifle and used my strategically placed portal to kill 11 players...

Final Fantasy Fan Gets Every Franchise Trophy—And It Took A Decade


On November 1, 2010, Talan Kirk, who goes by Rebourne07 on Reddit and PSN, unlocked his first trophy in Final Fantasy XIII for the PlayStation 3.

The Ascent Is Gorgeous But Its Signs Are Nonsense


The Ascent is a pretty dang good twin-stick shooter, but some Korean-speaking players have taken issue with the cyberpunk game’s liberal (and sometimes downright incorrect) use of the language.Read more

Four Of The Best PC Games Ever Are Free Right Now


It feels like only a couple of months ago that we were reporting EA had pulled four of the all-time greatest PC games from sale on GOG. Because it was. At the time, the peculiar publisher ignored our questions as to why. Now, just over six weeks later, Ultima Underworlds 1 & 2, Syndicate,...

$400 Spider-Man NFT Looks Like A PS2 Cutscene


By August 2021 it’s clear that the entire concept of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) is an enormous pump-and-dump scam, but that’s not stopping Disney and Marvel, who over the weekend released the dumbest, funniest piece of Spider-Man trash imaginable and watched people lining up around the block to...

Back 4 Blood Beta Players Think They Hear Zombies Yelling The N-Word


Last night, while playing the Back 4 Blood beta on PS5, I was attacked by a large group of zombies. That’s not surprising; it happens all the time in the game. What was shocking was hearing a sound clip from one of the zombies that made it seem like it was yelling out a racial slur. Based on viral...
