Subnautica 2's first update will add a sprint button, because players are building their bases too big: "they might want to go a little bit faster"
Subnautica 2 splashed into Steam early access yesterday, sending tidal waves of money into the bank accounts of developers Unknown Worlds and publishers Krafton. You planning on paying that $250 million performance bonus, then, Krafton? Now that the game has been on sale for a whopping 17 hours –…
Forza Horizon 6 makes a viable Steam Deck game, assuming you can find room to park it
Forza Horizon 6 is already Steam Deck Verified, which I’m forced to concede makes much of this article surplus to requirements. Yes alright, big green checkmark, you can convey the meaning of "it works" without publishing an entire performance and settings guide, or indeed needing to spell out…
Forza Horizon 6 is lightweight enough to perform on just about any PC - though its new ray tracing modes slam on the brakes
Forza Horizon 6’s bootful of PC-specific tech features was apparently stuffed enough to warrant a big, colourful blog post about them. Ultrawide support? Yes. DLSS 4 and FSR 4? Both. Ray tracing? A resounding hai, those souped-up lighting and reflection effects escaping FH6’s car-ogling mode…

Exodus' former studio head James Ohlen touches on why he left Archetype Entertainment: "I was running on fumes"
Back in December of last year, despite being the head of the studio, James Ohlen left Archetype Entertainment, also leaving his role as producer on Exodus behind. It was a bit of a surprise, given that he co-founded the studio after having retired from BioWare in 2018. Now, in a recent interview,…

Subnautica 2 sells 1 million copies in its first hour, and I have to imagine the CEO of Krafton is pouring himself a very stiff drink right about now
The scenario that Krafton humiliated itself to avoid seems to be coming true very quickly.
Moss: The Forgotten Relic is a shinier, VR-less fusion of the two beloved puzzle platformers that's out this summer
There's always a twinge of sadness when a game designed for VR later gets ported to be played on a regular screen, primarily because it's just not technically the realm the game was made for. That's sad to me! On the other hand, I do not own a VR headset, so I do win in those instances as well.…

For Control: Resonant's creative director, the series has always been "the Remedy version of an RPG experience"
I wouldn't label Remedy's Control as being much else outside of a shooter. It flirts with horror, it dabbles in sci-fi, but if we're talking mechanical genres, shooter fits it best. Then the sequel, Control: Resonant, got announced and turned out to be an action RPG. The bones of the original game…
Garry Newman acknowledges Gmod successor S&box had a bumpy launch, but is baffled by the number of people complaining about NFTs, which aren't in the game: 'I have no idea what this s**t is about'

More gorgeous laser puzzles await you in The Talos Principle 3, the "final chapter" in the series
"What differentiates a story from the real world, or a simulation?" ask developer Croteam in a very Baudrillardy way in their announcement post for The Talos Principle 3. "The real world goes on and on, but a story must have a clear beginning, middle, and end. And so the Talos Principle, a story we…
