There’s some decent games to check out, though if I’m honest I’ll mostly be hanging around the Street Fighter 6 booths - plus some fun live shows, with Bertie putting on a pub quiz on the Friday and Saturday evenings while Ian and Zoe have just put their schedule together. I’ll even be there myself, so if you want to come and say hello I’m sure you’ll find me at The Fox just over the road from the show itself on the Friday and Saturday....

Evil Dead: The Game should be immediately familiar to anyone that’s played the likes of Dead by Daylight or the now-defunct Friday the 13th game, tasking four players on the good-guy side - all armed with chainsaws and other assorted melee and ranged weapons - with defeating the powerful Kandarian Demon (under the control of a fifth player), by finding the pages of the Necronomicon, Raymond Knowby’s tapes, and other artefacts....

Developer Mediatonic made the announcement this afternoon, hours after confirming a Nintendo Switch edition during the Nintendo Direct broadcast last night. There’s no word yet on whether the game will launch via Xbox Game Pass, or whether it’ll feature crossplay. ORIGINAL STORY 17/2/21: Developer Mediatonic’s smash hit multiplayer rough-and-tumbler Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is heading to Switch this “summer”. Fall Guys, if it’s somehow managed to pass you by, was a monster success when it released last year on PlayStation and PC....

Here on this page, we’ll be listing FIFA 20’s best goalkeepers - referred to in FIFA as GKs, in order of their overall rating, but be sure to take a look at the specifics depending on what you want out of them, like GK Handling if you hate it when your ‘keeper drops a rebound right in front of the opposition, or GK Kicking for setting up speeder counter attacks from a drop kick....

The traditional release time and day of the week continues, despite the shift to the new Moments format, with the cards featured in the latest Team of the Week Moments officially available in packs from Wednesday, 15th April at 6pm UK time, where they’ll be around for seven days before the next TOTW Moments comes into play.

One nice to have but unexpected new feature is the ability to disable critical commentary. Here’s the option in the main game settings: Checking this box means the commentators won’t point out how bad you’re doing during gameplay, but will say all the other normal stuff they say during a match. I’m the kind of FIFA player who plays without the sound on at all, so I never normally hear the commentary....

Final Fantasy 5, which originally released back in 1992, follows the adventures of a wanderer named Bartz and his trusty Chocobo who, as Square puts it in its announcement, “find themselves drawn toward friends that will change their destiny.” “When the crystals that balance the powers of the world are threatened,” it continues, “the king hastens to the rescue…only to go missing.” Final Fantasy 5’s pixel remaster is pretty much identical to the previous four games in the series as far as new features go, introducing updated 2D pixel character and background art, a rearranged soundtrack (overseen by original composer Nobuo Uematsu), improved gameplay - including a modernised UI and auto-battle options - plus a range of quality of life additions....

The auction is the latest in a string of eye-opening prices for vintage games rated by controversial quality-assessment service Wata. Earlier this month, Wata co-founder Mark Haspel was accused of breaking his own company rules on selling graded stock for a profit, in a detailed report which alleged a “serious conflict of interest”. Has Yuji Naka been keeping up to date on all this? Last night, seeing word of the sale on Twitter, he replied: “[Hedgehog emoji] What’s this” and “Is it a scam?...

The narrator continues, eventually reflecting upon the times they used to laugh ‘under cerulean skies’. This sense of pondering and longing exists all the way throughout the game itself. Even my own history with the game echoes this sensation, as I spent over two decades waiting to play it, listening to the soundtrack, reading articles on it, all the time hoping that it would be released in Europe at some point....

I love how Tunic uses the process of gathering the game’s manual pages to build anticipation for later experiences in the adventure. You may find a page mapping out an area you haven’t visited yet and, upon it, lie little hints which only make sense once you’ve reached the location. It reminds me of how I used to read Pokémon walkthroughs from cover to cover as a child, jotting down little notes in the margins about which Pokémon I’d like to catch in each route....
