Katanaut – PC Review

Katanaut is a new 2D horror roguelite by Voidmaw now available on PC. Enter a massive drifting space station and explore the horrors within while discovering enhancements and unlocks to increase your combat prowess. With publishing assistance from the newly resurrected Acclaim, Inc., you can pick it up only on Steam. If Dead Space and Dead Cells Had a Baby… Anyone breezing over info about Katanaut may also make the same comparison I did to Dead Cells. Both are pixel graphic 2D action roguelites with seemingly similar mechanics. So then, what sets them apart? What makes each worth playing in their own right? Comparisons slightly aside, I dove into Katanaut to find out. Read up on my thoughts below. Gameplay Katanaut is an action roguelite that will challenge your ability to be quick...

Jump Space – PC Preview

Jump Space is a co-op, mission-based FPS that just launched into early access on Steam and Xbox. For this preview we got hands on with the PC version. Gather up to three of your friends and follow developer Keepsake Games into the void of space. You'll crew your own ship, fight in space and on the ground, and work together against a spreading robotic corruption. Join the resistance today! Jump... and Shoot and Fly and Loot! Ok before we get into it, I need to own up to something. In my opinion the Jump to Lightspeed content in Star Wars Galaxies was peak for me. It was my first experience in an MMO and I absolutely loved getting into space on a ship of my own or as part of a crew for someone else. It was a highlight in my gaming experience that I will forever pursue to feel again. Wh...

Gears of War: Reloaded – PS5 Review

The iconic alien horror shooter best known for its over-the-top gore, its unironic use of macho bravado, and its high-adrenaline action is back (once again). That's right this is a review of Gears of War: Reloaded. The Coalition, the Xbox Studios developers behind this gory chainsaw party, could have delivered just another lazy, half-hearted remastered game like we have unfortunately grown used to in recent years, looking at you The Last of Us. Instead, they have delivered a significant visual upgrade compared to its 2015 remastered Xbox version. Welcome to the War (again)! Nearly 20 years since its exclusive release on the Xbox 360, Gears of War has arrived on the PlayStation 5. The remastered game, rebranded as Gears of War: Reloaded, signifies the end of an era known as the console wa...

Chip ‘n Clawz vs. The Brainioids – PC Review

Chip 'n Clawz vs. The Brainiods is a new 3rd person strategy action game by the creator of X-COM, Julian Gollop, and Snapshot Games (Phoenix Point). With publishing by Arc Games (Remnant II, Torchlight 3), play solo or with a friend to save the planet's supply of Brainium from the invading Brainiods. You can pick it up today for PC via Steam or Epic, PS5 or Xbox. Today I'm taking a look at the PC version which is £25 on Steam. Meet Your Next Comedic Gaming Duo: Chip 'n Clawz! Duos seem to be a common theme in 3d action platformers. The obvious and most direct comparison here would be between Chip 'n Clawz vs. The Brainioids and the well-known Ratchet & Clank series. Both feature a humanoid and their robot sidekick with a world to save. Regardless of similarities though, the trailer c...

Step into the boots of the folklore sea devil himself, in DAVY x JONES. This new action-adventure FPS is being created by PARASIGHT, and aims for action across the seas of the damned. I'm excited to be checking this game out after watching the trailers. It looks great, so hopefully the gameplay matches. You can pick up the game, which is currently in early access on Steam, for £8.50. Which isn't too bad of a price. Why don't we carve a new bloody legend for ourselves, eh? DAVY x JONES' story begins with a quick retelling of the titular character's grim fate at the hand of Edward Teach (Black Beard). Upon waking up in the Locker, which is an iconic location that comes with the tale of Davy Jones Locker, our head (Davey), and body (Jones), begin their plan to exact revenge on Black Beard a...

Mafia: The Old Country – PS5 Review

The Mafia series has quietly built itself into one of gaming’s best crime sagas by rolling steadily through the decades. It kicked off in the 1930s, cruised through the ’40s and ’50s, then shook things up in the ’60s. Fans naturally expected the story to move forward. Instead, Hangar 13 drags us back to the roots with Mafia: The Old Country, a linear, story-driven trip to early 1900s Sicily. It launched worldwide on 15th August 2025 and is available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. This review covers the PS5 version, priced at around £54.99. So, does it sit solid like a family olive tree, or snap like a twig under a horse’s hoof? Miniere Alle Spalle, Mafia Davanti Mafia: The Old Country dives straight into the dirt. In 1904, young Enzo Favara escapes from the backbre...

Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2 PC Review

Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is an Action, Adventure made by CyberConnect2. With assistance with publishing from SEGA. This game is a continuation of the first game Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles. It's a hand in hand rendition of the anime Demon Slayer - Kimetsu no Yaiba-. To the point that we only get these games after a year when the anime ended. So, if you want to know more about the story, then I highly recommend watching the anime. Unless you're like me and want to immerse yourself into the world and get your hands dirty, then be my guest. Something else I want to touch on is going to be CyberConnect2's history with making anime renditions of games. They previously had their hands in making the entire Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm...

Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate PC Review

Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate is an action-adventure FPS from the long-standing company, Bungie. The Edge of Fate is the ninth expansion, which has you literally dealing with the Nine. For those who don't know the lore of Destiny 2, or hasn't been playing Destiny since 2014 I'll explain. The Nine is a group consisting of cosmic beings that have an unimaginable amount of power that makes armies look like ants. I would recommend listening to the lore videos on mynameisbyf's YouTube channel. While investigating the EDZ, Ikora comes across this weird signal that she checks out with her Hidden beside her. Moments from getting the transmission, a train appears out of nowhere and clearly leaves behind what seems an invitation. This leads her to the actual edge of the universe to land on Kepler, ...
