DAVY x JONES – PC Preview

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...

Time to welcome a new rogue-lite shooter, crawling out of hell or maybe falling down from heaven. That’s what my preview is here to uncover.

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, ...

DEADCAM | ANALOG • SURVIVAL • HORROR – PC Preview

I love me a good analogue-style horror game, and I’m always on the lookout for similar entries. That’s why DEADCAM | ANALOG • SURVIVAL • HORROR caught my eye. It doesn’t look like we get just one episode to enjoy, developer Joure Visser aims to have multiple episodes, which is a plus. DEADCAM has started its early access life cycle and is available on Steam for £6.09. But if you wish to try before you buy, then a demo is also on the store page. Warning GIFs used may contain Flashing Images! All your problems are fixable with a shotgun! Gameplay Before you jump into DEADCAM, as mentioned, there looks like there will be options for multiple episodes. As of right now, however, there is only one, titled Onryō. This first episode is set in the 80s and has us playing a man named Kenji. H...

Sonic X Shadow Generations – Switch 2 Review

Sonic X Shadow Generations was originally released back in October last year. With the recent Switch 2 release, the game got the update treatment. With that, we were lucky to hear from SEGA, who threw us a review key for the Blue (and black) hedgehog's latest game. So sit back as we check out just how the latest console's game plays, as well as give our thoughts on the storyline. Blue or Black? Who's the fastest? If you are a fan of any of the Sonic games, then you will know what you are going to expect. Fast action, blurry visuals, and a cheesy but engaging story. I can't wait!

Worship – PC Early Access Preview

Get ready to embark on a new, dark journey into the occult in Worship, the new cultist-themed roguelite game by Chasing Rats Games. Originally set for a 2022 release, the game makes its Early Access debut on July 16th on Steam! A potential "Cult" Classic? From the title alone, I came here expecting a game along the lines of Cult of the Lamb, I left playing… Pikmin? To be fair, there are noticeable differences between Pikmin and Worship. In one of them, you can have your minions fight to the death for you and your cause, often dying brutally and unnecessarily due to preventable situations that you have put them in, and in Worship you can draw pretty shapes! All jokes aside, I've had a great time playing so far. It is even more fun than I expected it to be! I think we already have a great ...
