Dreamfall Chapters developer Red Thread Games has revealed its latest project today. Draugen is a first-person ‘Fjord Noir’ mystery, set in a striking Norwegian coastal community during the 1920s. Looks can be deceiving, however, and Red Thread promises that there’s darkness lurking beneath the surface. Draugr, which we can probably assume the title is in reference to, are basically Norse zombies, often, but not exclusively, related to the sea. I doubt we’ll be hunting down Norwegian zombies, bu

(Image: © LLNL)Nvidia isn’t just making waves with its raytracing hardware, it’s making a splash in the supercomputing space as well. The company’s Tesla V100 GPUs now power the world’s two fastest supercomputers as ranked on the Top500 list, with both spots occupied by the United States. And if that’s not enough, Nvidia’s own SaturnV isn’t even submitted to the Top500 list, but based on core specs it should place in the top five. And if narrowing the list to the “greenest” supercomputers, Nvidi

Nuketown is coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, in keeping with the tradition of every game in this corner of the series paying homage to the extremely popular map. This new version of Nuketown has a distinctly Russian aesthetic, and it looks a bit chilly, too. Unfortunately, we’re going to wait a wee bit longer than the PlayStation 4 lot before we can get our hands on it. Activision and Sony have an exclusivity agreement, so Nuketown will only launch on PS4 today, while Xbox One and PC players

The conservation game added in the Warframe: Fortuna update last week yields adorable virtual plushies called Floofs that you can put in your Orbiter craft. To get one plushie you need to track and tranq five creatures in the open world zone Orb Vallis. Finally this one posted by uPepper5555 was posted 21 hours ago, so the collection has probably doubled in size since then. For more on the latest Warframe expansion, check out our guide to getting to Fortuna, and our guide to earning Solaris Unit

The votes are in, now all that’s left is to reveal the winning games at this year’s Golden Joystick Awards on Twitch this Friday afternoon. Before the ceremony begins, at 3.00pm GMT / 7.00am PST / 10.00am EST, join GamesRadar’s James Jarvis, Zoe Delahunty-Light, and Brandon Saltalamacchia for some speculation and an exclusive interview with Bethesda’s Pete Hines about Fallout 76. At 4.00pm GMT / 8.00am PST / 11am EST the main event begins, hosted by comedian Danny Wallace. 18 categories have bee

As the owner of a SNES Classic Mini, I really shouldn’t judge, but I haven’t got the faintest idea who the PC Classic is for. Like all the other Classic consoles, the PC Classic completely depends on nostalgia. Still, I have no regrets about buying the SNES Classic Mini. Without it, the PC Classic is just an ugly box. In September, we picked out the best games we’d put on a classic PC .

I can’t look at Parkitect without immediately being flung back to the heady days of RollerCoaster Tycoon, where I’d build deadly rides that could make even the strongest of stomachs churn. It’s primed to leave early access and, as the release trailer above reveals, 1.0 will launch on November 29, along with a 26-scenario campaign. The campaign mode will see park owners bouncing from park to park on a world map with branching paths, but I’ll probably do the same thing I always do: finish a few mi

The launch of the Fortuna update has seen players swarm Warframe. The free-to-play shooter was jam packed over the weekend as new and returning players headed to Venus, hitting a new peak concurrent player count of almost 132,000. Githyp and Steamcharts both show that Warframe reached 131,722 concurrent players as the weekend kicked off, compared to Sacrifice’s 129,000 a few months ago. These are just the numbers for Steam and don’t include players using the Warframe launcher or playing on conso

Intel Extreme Masters will return to Sydney in 2019 for the third year running, bringing world class Counter-Strike: GO play to the city’s Qudos Bank Arena. Sixteen teams will compete for a US$250,000 prize pool, with winners working towards attendance at the Intel Grand Slam. Over 7,500 folk were in attendance last year, while 13.5 million people viewed from home. The proceedings take place May 3-5 next year, but you can get in early for tickets: they go on sale this Friday, November 16. There

xThe Monster Hunter series is all about hunting supernatural monsters in strange fantasy lands. The Monster Hunter film, which boasts a $60 million budget, will depart from this theme a fair bit, if early images from the set are anything to go by. Milla Jovovich, who will star in the film, posted a series of images from the set on Instagram earlier this month, and they look more like a Call of Duty or Battlefield set than they do a Monster Hunter one. Presumably this different dimension will hav

The Windows Store was the one constant in our summertime chat about playing games that aren’t available on Steam. “I think we’ve got a ton of work to do on Windows,” Spencer said. The trouble with the Windows Store is that we’ve heard all of this before, and it never seems to go anywhere. Spencer said in 2017 that “we have work to go do” to make the Windows Store experience better. He said in early 2016 that Microsoft “plans to improve” the Windows Store.

Fallout 76 will finally go live later this week—check out the full launch schedule if you want to be there when the flag drops—but there’s a lot still to be done after that happens. In a “Launch and Beyond” message posted today, Bethesda Games Studios hinted at what it’s got planned for the post-release future. And thanks to everyone in publishing, IT, Bethesda.Net, Customer Service, Admin and our incredible partners in QA,” the studio wrote. building improvements, new quests and events, new Vau

After a few weeks of exclusivity on GOG, the card-based RPG Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales is now available on Steam. Pricing and features are effectively identical: The Steam release has achievements and cloud saves, just like the GOG version, but does not offer Steam trading cards, which obviously aren’t available in the GOG release either. But while Steam is obviously the dominant digital storefront, CD Projekt still seems to want to nudge people toward GOG. But the Gwent titles, avatars, a

Fallout 76 perk cards can be swapped in and out whenever you feel like it—meaning you can temporarily get rid of that boost to explosive damage in favor of a +1 to hacking the moment you need to crack a computer, then go back to being a combat machine afterward. However, there’s no way to respec choices you’ve made (yet) regarding which stat to increase, or which perk cards to upgrade. stats, it’s a good idea to tinker around with a character build planner before diving in. It’s also a good way

On the videogame front, Cawthon said that Five Nights at Freddy’s VR is about 40 percent complete and “looking terrific,” while the AR game is further from the finish line but “well underway.” The biggest news is the tease of a ‘triple-A’ Five Nights project that’s in the works. “There is a BIG deal in the works to create an incredible big-budget game!” Cawthon wrote. The most recent Five Nights at Freddy’s Game, a sort of DIY horror experience called Ultimate Custom Night, was released for free

David Wang, one of the bosses of AMD’s Radeon Technologies Group, offered up his own personal insight into the situation and may have hinted at AMD’s future plans in the process. Wang is one of two people AMD hired to lead its efforts in discrete graphics after Raja Koduri bailed, ultimately landing at Intel. During AMD’s recent The Next Horizon event, Japanese gaming website 4Gamer spoke with Wang about all thing graphics, including the topic of raytracing. It’s a bit of a weird statement consi

Sheepishly, the UK team returns to the podcast studio after a three month hiatus. To make up for it, we talk through a selection of new and recent releases, all while trying to remember how you a) do a podcast, b) speak in full, comprehensible sentences, c) tell a joke without lampshading it first. Discussed: Hitman 2, Forza Horizon 4, Return of the Obra Dinn, GRIS, Megaquarium, Fallout 76Listen to Episode 68: Selfies With Mothman here.

Luckily for me, in the first-person burglary game Thief Simulator, the cops don’t have much of a clue. And the thief I’m playing might not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, either: he logs into his computer as ‘Thief321’. Half the fun of Thief Simulator is getting into my car, cruising around the neighborhood, and casing the joints myself. In fact, Thief Simulator is as much about damaging property as stealing it. Despite the terrible AI, I sorta like Thief Simulator.

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is going back to the series’ old stomping grounds of Ubersreik in the upcoming Back to Ubersreik DLC. Three maps from the original game have been gussied up and remastered, with new challenges thrown into the mix for good measure. Developer Fatshark also promises a “secret surprise” waiting for the heroes. I can’t say I feel all that nostalgic towards Ubersreik, though I’m a big fan of the level design from the first game and certainly won’t turn my nose up at new maps. B
