• Spider-Noir canceled after one season at Prime Video despite receiving 11 Emmy nominations

  05-09-2026 00:20 via gamesradar.com
  
  Despite critical acclaim and a slew of Emmy nominations, Spider-Noir will not be returning for a second season at Prime Video. Per Deadline, it seems like Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television expected bigger streaming numbers when making their decision. But given recent reports that the first season's budget was somewhere around $400 million, I can see why the studios might've needed the show to become a megahit in order to justify spending that money on a second season.Amazon and Son

• GTA 6 driving is "the best parts" of GTA 4 but with "the accessibility of GTA 5," says Rockstar boss

  04-09-2026 23:45 via gamesradar.com
  
  It's nearly impossible to nail down any one feature or mechanic that defines a Grand Theft Auto game, but the two specific suggestions from the title are thievery and driving. My memories of the early GTA games from my childhood, Vice City and San Andreas, are largely comprised of stealing stuff, cruising around listening to 2Pac, and mowing down innocent citizens, a horde of cop cars blaring sirens in the rearview. Driving is essential to a GTA game, so it makes sense that it's a huge focus in

• Xbox CEO Asha Sharma is "not going to shoot my dog," says now-independent Double Fine boss Tim Schafer, who initially opposed Microsoft ownership because "you guys love closing studios"

  Double Fine has just regained its independence as a studio after seven years at Microsoft, who founder Tim Schafer initially didn't want as a dad anyway. But things seemed OK until new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma stepped in for Phil Spencer. "No one puts Double Fine out of business except for me," Schafer tells Bloomberg in a new report. "Asha's not going to shoot my dog. I'm going to shoot it. But I'm not going to shoot it because it's going to do great. A lot of people want to walk the dog." It's a g

• FromSoftware's first-ever player romance builds on "the maidens in Elden Ring," says Hidetaka Miyazaki: "It's a transient, ephemeral love, which is maybe a motif I'm striving for"

  04-09-2026 19:46 via gamesradar.com
  
  I already think the standard FromSoftware boss fight in which you're more likely to die the closer you get to touching someone is romantic in the way it makes my palms sweat. So I'm eager to learn if director Hidetaka Miyazaki will be able to scrunch my heart until it explodes with The Duskbloods, which will feature the first overt romance between players in a FromSoftware game. Switch 2 multiplayer game The Duskbloods is set against the unnatural Dusk of Humanity, where up to eight players fill

  BlizzCon 2026 is right around the corner, and for Blizzard fans, there's an air of excitement as signs point to a dormant franchise possibly being revived. StarCraft has been largely dormant since the release of StarCraft 2: Legacy of the Void in 2015--and a huge update in June--but could the sci-fi series be making a comeback?

• 30 years later, here's how I still play N64 games on the original console, fancy FPGA remakes, and handhelds

  04-09-2026 18:34 via gamesradar.com
  
  The Nintendo 64 is now 30 years old, and the question of how to actually play N64 games today is more relevant than ever. Yes, the short answer involves simply getting hold of Ninty's first 3D system, but the original retro console is a bit of an oddball. Therefore, it's well worth putting a bit of love into your modern setup, whether you opt for the OG hardware, a fancy HDMI remake, or an emulation-based solution.Jump to:(Image credit: Phil Hayton)Original hardware

• Even during a RAMpocalypse, Sony and Microsoft come across as less consumer-friendly than some PC brands with their refusal to give US tariff refunds back to consumers

  No consumer technology market is pleasant right now, but somehow, even during a RAMpocalypse, Sony and Microsoft are managing to make console gaming look like the worse of two evils. Both brands have filed motions to dismiss class action lawsuits that charge them with not passing on tariff refunds to their consumers, even while a few gaming PC brands are managing to make the consumer-friendly decision in the opposite direction. In case you're not up to speed, last year, US tariffs were brought i

• Lego Nightmare Before Christmas gets the best discount I've seen in years ahead of its retirement in December

  Lego can't keep making the same sets forever, and unfortunately Lego Nightmare Before Christmas has had its number called – it'll be retiring in just a few months. That's why one of its best ever discounts has me doing a Jack Skellington impression and asking "what's this?" You can currently pick up Lego Nightmare Before Christmas for $40 less than usual at both Amazon and Walmart, and while that may not sound jaw-dropping in itself, this is actually the cheapest it's been in a long, long

  Former PlayStation boss Shawn Layden says a future without physical discs is "depressing but solvable."Soon after Sony's announcement that it would end physical disc production for PlayStation games, a report out of Austria was interpreted as Sony ending all but 10% of its production.

  There are some games that you hope will demonstrate how much muscle memory can survive years of neglect. Hand me a plastic guitar, put a rhythm game in front of me, and apparently my brain still thinks it knows what it's doing. Having not touched a guitar controller since around 2009, when Guitar Hero 5 was released, my hands-on time with Stage Tour at Gamescom went a little differently than I'd hoped.Getting to grips with the new rhythm game from RedOctane Games, I opted for guitar, naturally.
