If you're planning a trip, perhaps we can suggest the idyllic islands of Titan Quest II's Ancient Greece? It's beautiful, clean, and hosts wonders the likes of what you've never seen.

• The Curse Of Star Wars Battlefront 3

  03-11-2026 20:34 via GameSpot - All Content
  
  I think Star Wars Battlefront 3 might be cursed. For the past 20 years, several different game studios have attempted to create a third entry in Star Wars’ premier shooter sub-series, yet have failed over and over again. We learned last week that EA is reportedly developing Battlefront 3, but also that the project came at the cost of shutting down BioWare.Battlefront 3 has always seemed like a no-brainer to make; 2005’s Star Wars: Battlefront 2 is widely beloved, and more personally, my favo

• Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann wrote Uncharted 4's story just weeks after taking over from Amy Hennig

  03-11-2026 20:22 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  Uncharted 4: A Thief's End marks a high point for the series in terms of emotionally resonant storytelling, capping off a rollicking, action-packed adventure with a surprisingly poignant epilogue showing Nathan Drake's comparatively mundane life as a father 15 years after the events of the main story. I've played that game so many times I've lost count, and the ending never fails to wet my eyes just a little. That's why I was shocked to hear creative director Neil Druckmann put together the roug

• How to get the Flaming Mane Phantom Edge in Phantom Blade Zero

  03-11-2026 18:45 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  To obtain the Phantom Blade Zero Flaming Mane, you first need reach Pangzhen, which is the game's fourth region. That means getting this bramble-clearing Phantom Edge takes quite a long time, particularly from the Red Serpent House in the Crimson Forest, which is the earliest point in the game it needs to be used. However, it's at least not that difficult to get, and doing so is all part of the main quest anyway. But to help set your expectations, I've explained the entire process of obtaining t

• A Diablo 3 mechanic discarded because "it was not fun" found the perfect place in World of Warcraft

  03-11-2026 18:39 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  A frustrating aspect of any creative process is having a good idea, but not the right means to execute it. Thankfully, if you're a studio the size of Blizzard, you can transfer mechanics across series if something's good but not quite fitting into the game it was designed for, which is how a notion for Diablo 3 wound up becoming central to an encounter in World of Warcraft.Wyatt Cheng, a former game director at Blizzard, went through what happened on his Instagram account.

It's the mark of a good MMO, after all, and Forever will offer no exception there.

• Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake added a jump button to avoid being "jarring"

  After 28 long years, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is finally getting a jump button in the Switch 2 remake because Nintendo knew it'd feel "jarring" without one, even if the decision threw some devs from the OG since it was such a "convenient" design choice previously.Speaking in a new installment of Nintendo's Ask the Developer interview, Ocarina of Time remake program director Hiroki Taguchi – who first joined the Zelda team to work on Breath of the Wild – notes that certain "adjust

• 25 Years Of Xbox Bundle Includes All These Games For $570

  To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Xbox this year, Microsoft has launched a "25 Years of Xbox" digital game bundle. It includes 25 games for $570.
  That works out to about $23/game, but it's more nuanced than that, as some of the games are bundles themselves.

There are Gears of War and Age of Empire bundles, too.Some of the games in the bundle a

• I'm kicking myself that I didn't try this board game sooner, because it's a fast-paced, easy-to-learn masterpiece

  03-11-2026 16:13 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  When a board game claims you can learn and be playing it in just a few minutes, I get skeptical. Few can pull off that trick unless they're lighthearted party fare (which isn't a derogatory put-down, by the way), and even the best board games can take a trial-run to fully get your head around. That's why I raised an eyebrow at Fire Tower's claim you can be up and at 'em in a mere five minutes. A glance at its array of components and grid-based system also had me hitting the 'doubt' button.But yo

• Buying GTA 6 Could Save You $5,000, Or At Least This Guy Thinks So

  03-11-2026 15:53 via GameSpot - All Content
  
  Self-made millionaire Mark Tilbury has shared some advice for how buying GTA 6 can actually save you $5,000. Just don't take this too seriously.Here's how he arrived at that number: If the game costs $100 (for the Ultimate Edition) and it takes 80 hours to complete, that works out to $1.25/hour of "fun." After adding on side missions and simply exploring GTA 6's map, investing in the game seems like an even better deal at just 50 cents of fun per hour.
