Don't miss out on the best Magic: The Gathering Prime Day deals before they sell out

There’s a new trailer for Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, and that prick of a penguin is up to no good once again.Wallace and Gromit is very much a series where you go on Wikipedia and realise, “ah, this is one of those British things where they make like four episodes that are run on repeat for decades afterwards,” and by four, I almost literally mean four, as there’s been four short films over the years, and only one feature film, The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. But, after almost 20 years, Wallace and Gromit are back in a new feature film, Vengeance Most Fowl, which just got a new teaser trailer from the BBC and Netflix today. This particular outing sees the return of an old rival of the titular duo, Feathers McGraw, who has seemingly framed everybody’s favourite inventor in a s…

This has been a decent Gamescom so far for Diablo 4. We got our first look at AI companions, the Mercenaries, as part of Opening Night Live, and anyone in attendance in Cologne can try the new Vessel of Hatred feature alongside the Spiritborn class.Blizzard wanted to include those of us staying at home, too, so the developer announced a new Mother’s Blessing event that runs alongside Gamescom week. It was supposed to start yesterday with the show’s kick-off, but that sadly didn’t happen.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings Mother’s Blessing, if you’re unfamiliar, is Diablo 4’s version of the double XP events you’re used in many other games. You don’t quite earn double the amount of XP, but it’s a ma…

Deadlock is doing ridiculously well despite not being officially out yet, and now a much earlier look at the game has been shared online.Well done Valve, your gambit paid off – despite pretending for the longest time that Deadlock wasn’t real, while allowing people to invite literally any of their friends to play it, the game is doing incredibly well. Word of mouth has clearly helped it travel far, as over the weekend the game hit a concurrent player count peak of 164,855 players on Steam, according to SteamDB, a wildly impressive figure that puts it in the top 100 most played games on Steam. One can only imagine how well it will do once it’s actually out and everyone can play it without needing an invite.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings Before the…

Longtime RuneScape fans might have made private servers anyway, but Jagex is finally letting everyone make official community servers.The thing about MMOs, is that no matter what kind it is, eventually some players are going to want to make their own servers. Maybe they just want to make grinding a bit easier, or make certain loot easier to achieve, or maybe they just hate other people, or even like other people so much they want to fully engage in roleplaying with them. The point is, players like options, particularly in something like an MMO which is kind of a life commitment type deal – pick one, and that’s your lot. With RuneScape being over 20 years old, the original version anyway, there have of course been plenty of private servers over its existence, but Jagex has just announced Pr…

Remember Tony Hawk, skateboarder and star of a bunch of video games that served as foundational experiences for you and your mates – assuming you grew up with dreams of competing at the X Games and having Rage Against The Machine play at your medal winning afterparty? Well, he’s just teased plans to commemorate the original Pro Skater’s 25th birthday, apparently with help from Activision.Speaking on Mythical Kitchen, a YouTube cooking show that’s exactly where you’d expect to find video game news (thanks VGC), Hawk was asked what’s next for the Pro Skater franchise with that anniversary coming up on September 29 and revealed that him and Activision are on talking terms again.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings “I wish I could tell you more, but I can …

Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie Walpurgisnacht Rising (say that three times fast) has a new, but completely unintelligible trailer.Last year, after many years of keeping fans waiting, the first trailer for the next Madoka Magica movie, Walpurgisnacht Rising, finally arrived, and while it looked great, it was definitely just a whole bunch of completely contextless shots that don’t really tell you what the film is about. Beautiful shots, mind you, but it’s clear you’ll have to actually watch the film to understand it. Things have been a bit quiet since then, other than the fact it was delayed from winter 2024 to winter 2025, which is quite a big jump, but what’s a few more months on top of the already years-long wait? Lucky for you, though, a new trailer dropped this week which… d…

In a slightly unusual move, Netflix has picked up the streaming rights for the viral web series The Amazing Digital Circus.You might not have seen it, but with as popular as The Amazing Digital Circus has gotten, you’ve almost definitely at least heard about it, if you haven’t already seen the countless cosplays of its lead clown girl Pomni. The first episode, which launched a year ago next month, has accumulated almost 350 million views, with its second episode releasing back in May racking up over 121 million views. And now, alongside the release of the third episode, comes a bit of an odd announcement: Netflix has picked up the streaming rights for the series.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings Now, understandably, your first concern will be whethe…

Warning: Major Spoilers for Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty expansion lie ahead.If you’ve played through Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty – I’d can defintely reccomend it if you haven’t – and chosen to side with the Idris Elba-portrayed Solomon Reed, there’s one mission in particular that’s probably ended up burned into your brain. It sees you have to run from a giant robat that can pretty much kill you on sight, and as it turns out, one of its major inspirations was Frodo Baggins having just the worst day ever.Yes, that Frodo Baggins, the dude from The Lord of the Rings. Your cybernatically-enhanced super-mercernary, with their guns, katana, and/or mantis blades, was basically playing the part of a pint-sized, but courageous fellow from The Shire. You know what, I see it.To see this conte…

In the view of Bethesda design director Emil Pagliarulo, Starfield, in a lot of ways, is one of best things that the studio’s ever made, even if he acknowledges that it “might not be everyone’s cup of tea”.Yep, with the much-hyped Shattered DLC having now been unleashed, giving everyone the chance travel to Va’ruun’kai for a proper taste of arguably the game’s most interesting – at least in theory – factions – Pagliarulo’s spoken to GamesRadar about Bethesda’s big space baby, and how he views where it’s at as an IP, as well as a part of what the studio’s accomplished.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings After getting in an obligatory joke about making the game having taught him that The Elder Scrolls 6 is a thing that people would quite like, the devel…
