While I would have preferred a War Stories-style campaign, #Battlefield6 absolutely nails the multiplayer. It's ridiculously addictive.

I've played four hours of #DyingLightTheBeast and it's awesome. The new gore system and survival horror tweaks are a ton of fun.

It still feels much like DL2, but it lays the foundations for the series' future. Don't sleep on it.

Dying Light: The Beast shows that Techland is listening to its horror-loving fans

If our Dying Light: The Beast preview revealed anything, it's that Techland is serious about returning to its horror roots, making this a game worth watching.

The Outer Worlds 2 looked really cool in the Direct last night, but I must say, even the show itself was entertaining.

More often than not, the comedic-style shows can feel cringy or forced, but Obsidian nailed it. Honestly, I think the actual Direct sold me on the game 😂
