As hype builds for Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, fans are flocking back to play (the heavily discounted) Remake and Rebirth on Steam

It looks like that superb Final Fantasy 7 Revelation trailer at Summer Game Fest was just the ticket for Square Enix: between a blowout trailer showcasing a massive open world, some significant story beats, and refined combat, and a massive media tour following the reveal, interest in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake series appears to have gone through the roof.

How Croakwood captures the challenge of a townbuilder like Anno but avoids the stress and pressure

If, like me, you walk through this world forever thinking about Chicken Run, you too may expect at any moment to discover the animal kingdom is actually made up of industrious town-building critters. Though, hopefully they're not looking to attack and tie us up if ever they're rumbled. Especially when the towns they're making look as delightful as those in frog townbuilder Croakwood. I could watch their hustle and bustle all day. The next game from Parkitect developer Texel Raptor, Croakwood put

The Sunday Papers

Sundays are for testing the limits of the hunger for street furniture in your community. Since moving into the new flat, we've been taking things left behind by the previous owner down to the street one-by-one. A lamp here, a side table there, a splash of shelving. So far, everything has been taken by neighbours and passersby. But, after a week of rain where we couldn't take anything out without it getting drenched (and losing any chance of being taken), we've a glut of things to put out. With m

Vanillaware seemingly want their other games on PC too, but if you want that to happen, talk to their publishers

Vanillaware might not be a household name to some of you, but it's got a library that hangs up there with the best of them. Odin Sphere, Dragon's Crown, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, all games that I have seen their biggest supports plead for you to play them on sites like Dwitter and Bluesky. Only problem for us lot is that none of them are on PC. Well, most of them, as just this week it was announced that one of their earlier titles Muramasa: The Demon Blade will finally be coming to PC. And, as it

Penguin Colony's demo shows life as a flightless bird is lonely, scary, awkward, and cosmically intriguing

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that when you think of penguins and video games, Club Penguin is probably the one that comes to mind for you (or the Surf's Up adaptation if you're nasty). There aren't really a lot of games about these flightless birds, and they're normally on the sillier side when there are because penguins are funny little critters. Penguin Colony, the next game from the devs behind Umurangi Generation, doesn't completely abandon that silliness, but it does throw in some

Zlin City: Arch Moderna is a diorama city builder made with actual, physical models and based on a real Czech city

City builders, kind of by definition, tend to be quite large in form. You're constructing an entire city here after all, and all the complications that come with that. So how about a citybuilder that's going for something a bit smaller? Meet Zlin City: Arch Moderna, a city builder designed to look like you're making dioramas, made by scanning actual, physical models, inspired by the real Czech city Ziln. Read more

Whether you believe it or not, Final Fantasy 7 Revelation director Naoki Hamaguchi says the end's been planned from the start

Generally when a game gets remade, you'll assume that it'll mostly be the same at least narratively, given how not normal can be with works that are considered uncomfortably sacred. That's certainly what many may have guessed about the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy, only those pesky Whispers to get in the way offering some changes here and there. Rebirth continued that here and there, staying the course in other ways, and Revelation will be out next year with an ending you can't change. And acc

Nintendo reportedly look set to net so little from their Palworld lawsuit you'll wonder why they bothered

As with most suits of this nature, the one Nintendo filed against Palworld developer Pocketpair has been going on for a while now. Almost two years, in fact, specifically over infringement of patent rights related to specific mechanics, as opposed to anything like copyright. Nintendo suffered a bit of a loss earlier this year, and now it sounds like the whole thing might only net them what is essentially pocket change (for a billion dollar company, anyway). Read more

"There's nothing worse than an AI-generated pitch": Bloober, Jagex, 11 bit and indie devs on the bruising hurdle of funding a videogame prototype

Among the worries faced by game developers seeking a publisher is the gamble of a prototype – that is, "a playable build that meaningfully shows what’s good about your game – a proof of concept", in the summary of Suspicious Developments boss Tom Francis. Specifically, Francis says a "prototypable project is one where you can build that in an amount of time you can afford to lose". Few independent devs have bags of time to lose, and there's no guarantee the labour will be rewarded. And yet, many

What are we all playing this weekend?

The weather has been an unpredictable mess of downpour and blazing sun this week, but Saturday feels like it could be the turn. Another chance for the sun to yank on the starter cord of summer and get that season's engine thrumming. I simply refuse to have to turn back from another walk around the park because 10 metres from my front door the lovely sunshine is replaced by pelting rain. Read more

Resident Evil Veronica team is adjusting the original's story so its remake fits better into the series as a whole

It's hard to believe there was a time when Resident Evil felt like it was on its last legs. But instead, the long-running survival horror series has gone from strength to strength, brand-new instalments building on older stories Capcom is revisiting in remakes of its classic games. And it has now confirmed its upcoming Code: Veronica remake, Resident Evil Veronica, will include story changes to ensure it fits more cohesively into an overarching series narrative that has ballooned significantly s

I sure hope Crimson Desert's new pet limit means I can own 100 pigeons at once, even if I'll only have 50 in camp because Pearl Abyss are cowards

Crimson Desert. It's basically an everything game at this point, so it's not too suprising that the latest update developers Pearl Abyss have put out takes the Red Pudding further down the road of being a Nintendogs competitor. The number of pets you can tame as you wander around Pywel has been growing gradually since launch and you can now have up to 100 of them. That seems dangerously impractical, but hey, video game.
