I’m excited to play Mario Kart World for all the obvious reasons, not least among them that it’s the first new Mario Kart in 11 years.

Fantastic Four: First Steps is still a few months away, but I’m surprised that the second trailer is still keeping so much so close to its chest.

Mario Kart World is probably the biggest game we know of heading into the Nintendo Switch 2 launch on June 5. Though it’s been steeped in some controversy along the way, the kart racer looks like a pretty substantial leap forward after a decade of Mario Kart 8.

It’s probably fair to say that zombie movies and TV shows have something of a pattern. There’s an outbreak, we cut to years later when only a few survive, then follow a small band of survivors who get stuck on the roof of a mall. I think that’s about 90 percent of them. Which is why the complete weirdness featured in…

When I talked to Don’t Nod last year about why it was breaking its new paranormal adventure game, Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, into two parts, the team said it wanted to recapture the mystery and speculation generated by episodic releases of the past like the original Life Is Strange and Telltale’s catalog. After two…

When I saw a hooded Wolf (Wagner Moura) chase after the adorable Puss (Antonio Banderas) with twin sickles like a hidden character in Soulcalibur in 2022’s Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, I did not think, “Yeah, this is perfect for a live-action prestige horror film.” That’s probably why I’m not an Academy…

At first glance, a single-player MMORPG doesn’t make a ton of sense. But in practice, it’s an exciting prospect, a world filled with simulated players, grinding mobs, completing quests, and sharing barbed words in global chat—and none of them are real people.
