• "I don’t think Starfield was anywhere near successful enough to do a Starfield 2," Bethesda vet says

  24-09-2026 23:46 via gamesradar.com
  
  By most metrics, Starfield should be considered a success. At least 15 million players since release. A Metacritic score in the 80s. Enough hype to draw one million concurrent players at launch. Yet it's fair to say that most Bethesda fans consider the space RPG a disappointment – a dramatic comedown from the heights of Skyrim and Fallout 4. In any case, you probably shouldn't count on there being a direct follow-up."I would be very surprised [if there was a sequel]," Kurt Kuhlmann, who se

• Silent Hill Townfall blood puzzle solution

  24-09-2026 23:31 via gamesradar.com
  
  When you find all the Silent Hill Townfall blood bags it leads to a blood types puzzle that opens up the Blood Transfusion Door, a barrier blocking your path in the 'different' Medical Center. After that you'll then need to check various blood types to rotate a large dial and channel certain bags to the center to finally escape.
  It is a long, stealth heavysection, as you need to explore and collect certain blood bags to open various doors, to then collect more blood bags, and all while avoiding

• I Only Play Arc Raiders As A PvE Game, But PvE Servers Miss The Point

  24-09-2026 23:18 via gamespot.com
  Arc Raiders will soon feature a trial run of Player-versus-Environment (PvE) servers, which would seem to be great news for a player like me, who exclusively plays the game as a PvE experience. In actuality, PvE servers ignore one of the game's best traits. Embark Studios said that PvE-only servers are coming in a limited testing phase for one week beginning on October 13. Whether they come back after that isn't known yet, not even to the studio itself. Embark cited a player survey tha

• Stellar Blade is adding a frame gen toggle on Nintendo Switch 2 after players said it looks bad

  24-09-2026 23:03 via gamesradar.com
  
  Ahead of Stellar Blade's arrival on Switch 2, there's a demo allowing you to get an early taste of the port. By and large, it's exactly what you'd expect – but developer Shift Up has had to make some notable compromises to get the game running on the portable hardware. The game's forced use of frame generation has been the cause of some controversy, but thankfully, the devs have taken the feedback to heart and intend to make it optional."Thank you to everyone who has played the Stellar Bla

• First Full Madden Movie Trailer Has Us So Very Confused

  Madden, the David O. Russell-directed John Madden biopic starring Nic Cage, got its first full-length trailer today, and to be completely honest, I have no idea what to make of this movie. Based on the two minutes seen in the trailer, it could either be a subversive comedic delight or The Room 2, but with even more footballs and fewer tuxedos.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzh7HzLXXpk

• Nintendo Reportedly Canceled A Ubisoft-Developed Zelda Game Starring Ganondorf

  24-09-2026 22:18 via gamespot.com
  Zelda fans have had no shortage of new games to play in recent years, but it appears that one game--starring the franchise's iconic villain--was also in the works at one point. Rather than having Nintendo internally develop the game, however, the project was in the works at Ubisoft.
  In a September 24 report, Insider Gaming says that Ubisoft Milan was working on a Zelda spin-off with the internal name "Goliath," which was set to star a new protagonist. During the early period of development, this

• Resident Evil is the most successful video game movie yet, and should be the template for game adaptations going forward

  24-09-2026 22:00 via gamesradar.com
  
  In case you haven't heard, the Resident Evil movie rocks. Zach Cregger's singular adaptation of the beloved Capcom video games is a 95-minute shot of t-Virus adrenaline that does a better job of adapting the series to film than any of the previous seven movies, despite telling an original story and failing to include a single game character. This caused something of a backlash ahead of release, leading Cregger to embark on a self-professed "apology tour" during interviews. But I'm here to tell y

• Ex-Dragon Age lead admits Origins' Fade sequence is "filler" and "not very good content"

  If you took a survey of every Dragon Age: Origins player ever, I'd imagine most of them wouldn't have the most positive impression of the game's Fade sequence, which whisks you off to a bizarre alternate dimension separated from the rest of your party. Naturally, there will always be Fade apologists who argue the tonal and mechanical shift keeps things fresh, but there seems to be a general consensus that it wasn't the best use of resources, and now one of the most foremost authorities on the ga

This will allow players to choose to keep the immersion of Modern Warfare 4 in battle royale, while others can continue to use their outlandish skins from previous seasons. The ability to toggle operator skins on and off has been a highly requested feature, especially after Beavis And Butt-Head operators were added in Black Ops 6, but

• GTA 6's $400 collectible spoon is actually a reference to another, far more expensive GTA spoon

  24-09-2026 18:42 via gamesradar.com
  
  You may have noticed Rockstar is shilling a GTA 6 Collector's Box at the moment. The contents include a double-sided poster, a statue of Macca the Gator, and the greatest prize of all, a Vice City-emblazoned spoon.A swizzle spoon to be exact, the kind typically found in cocktail bars and pubs for mixing drinks. Decidedly appropriate for anyone preparing to jaunt around Leonida for hours and hours. It's be more charming if it wasn't part of a collection that costs $399.99, but that's another disc

  Control is one of my favorite games ever. Six years after release, one of the things that sticks with me the most is a pencil. Within your first few seconds of playing, you happen upon your first memo. It's located at a security checkpoint and outlines a number of items that are not permitted inside the government building you've just entered. These seem expected enough: laptops, weapons, various smart devices, and so on. The final two list items sound much stranger: one being No. 2 pencils

That inventor is none other than the legendary Sir Clive Sinclair of ZX Spectrum fame, and his nephew, Grant Sinclair, is carrying the mantle within the portable cons

And while that isn't inaccurate, it also feels like an unfair simplification. Duskfade is very little like Kingdom Hearts, more reminiscent of a PS3-era action-platformer than an action-RPG. Its gameplay is composed mostly of really satisfying platforming with occasional, merely so-so combat encounters. But what reall
