• Konami president says "reboots" of Metal Gear, Castlevania, and Silent Hill are "important initiatives" for the company going forward

  24-08-2026 14:13 via gamesradar.com
  
  Konami says that reboots of key franchises like Metal Gear, Castlevania, and Suikoden are an important part of its business strategy going forward. Between a very public falling out between Hideo Kojima and Konami around the release of Metal Gear Solid 5, a pivot into Pachinko machines, and a general lack of new games, the company lost a lot of stock among fans for a while. However, in recent years, thanks to well-received re-releases of Castlevania and Metal Gear games, remakes of Silent Hill 2

• The Elder Scrolls 6 will keep Skyrim's famous cheese physics – now Bethesda needs to give me a reason to care

  24-08-2026 14:00 via gamesradar.com
  
  The Elder Scrolls 6, rumored to be called Sentinel, will be out… Uh, at some point, despite being teased back in 2019. Uncertain title aside, one of the very few things we do know about The Elder Scrolls 6 is that it will be running on yet another incarnation of Bethesda's proprietary Creation Engine, as will Fallout 5 after that. Ah, the Creation Engine! The foundational code for every game Bethesda has made since Skyrim – and arguably earlier, having been built off elements of the

  24-08-2026 14:00 via gamespot.com
  
  If you wanted to play The Blood of Dawnwalker at 60fps, you'd originally need to get the PC version and hope your rig was up to scratch. Developer Rebel Wolves didn't initially list a 60fps mode for Xbox Series X, PS5, and PS5 Pro when it recently released a quick look at the graphical modes for those consoles, but the developer says it will now be added via a day-one patch when the game launches in September."Performance mode was already in the works, but it was still being tested.

• Pokemon Winds and Waves might not have turn-based battles as Game Freak veteran hints the combat system "could change" thanks to Pokemon Champions

  Pokemon Champions director Kazumasa Iwao says that the mainline Pokemon games could gradually move away from turn-based battles, as Champions is available for fans of the current combat system.

  24-08-2026 13:50 via gamesradar.com

Harry is the son of Green Goblin, AKA Norman Osborn, and becomes a villain in his own right. Gwen Stacy, meanwhile, is Peter Parker's girlfriend, who dies tragically (not to be confused with Spider-Gwen, a different incarnation of the character via the multiverse and

• Cyberpunk TCG feels like it's from the future, but it has a distinctly old-school secret weapon

  If you've played a trading card game in the last 10 years, chances are good that you'll understand much of what the Cyberpunk Trading Card Game (henceforth referred to as simply Cyberpunk TCG) from Weird Co is doing. It's pretty common for a new TCG to use bits and pieces of successful formulas elsewhere – resource management a bit like Lorcana, unit combat close to the Gundam TCG – while introducing some new complexity or change we don't tend to see with the best card games.For Cybe

• Pokemon Halloween merch is super-effective, because it's already starting to sell out

  I took one look at the 2026 Pokemon Halloween collection and let out a loud groan. Make no mistake: my bank account is in danger.The official Poke-store tends to hit the mark where quality is concerned, but those hits turn into bullseyes with spooky season. The 2026 Pokemon Halloween collection (which you can see in its entirety at the Pokemon Center) is no different, and there are multiple pages of "oh no, I want it" merch ranging from mugs to cozy sweaters.

• I still can't afford the RetroTINK-6X CE, but given its 1440p abilities for $230, it's more likely to become my next retro upscaler than its siblings

  24-08-2026 12:47 via gamesradar.com
  
  RetroTINK retro upscalers are something of a gold standard, but they come with a heavy price barrier. Yes, I am a classic console setup connoisseur, but even I could only dream of spending $750 on the lavish FPGA-powered 4K Pro model. Even the 4K-CE version with scaled-back specs comes with too heavy a toll, so when even cheaper 6X CE rolled into town with QHD abilities, I was instilled with hope.I'm still not convinced I can personally afford the RetroTINK-6X CE at $239 / £225.

It's so small, and she gets frisbee’d to death," said Atwell at the For the Love of Sci-Fi and Fantasy festival via francesinlondon on Instagram.

  Shigeru Miyamoto might be the most influential game developer of all time, but don't expect him to care about his rankings among other industry legends. Even in the '90s, Miyamoto wasn't terribly concerned about competing with other devs who were incrementally pushing existing game genres forward. His true rival?
