• The Voidjoy Elite Extender only makes sense for Pro Controller purists

  11-11-2026 14:30 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  The Voidjoy Elite Extender answers a commonly asked question with a complicated answer. Is it worth buying a new Nintendo Switch 2 controller solely for its back buttons? If you're still rocking the original Switch Pro Controller, the JSAUX brand's add-on back button attachment stands to save you around $50 on the price of the Switch 2 Pro gamepad. But it's not quite that easy in the grand scheme of the wider market.The $39.99 accessory slots into the USB-C port on the top of the OG controller,

• How to find the Lenses of Truth in Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake

  11-11-2026 16:34 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  The Lenses of Truth in Zelda Ocarina of Time are an essential item used to reveal hidden objects, illusions, and secrets that Link might have otherwise missed. In the original OoT these were actually called the Lens of Truth, presented as a flamboyant magnifying glass, but in the Remake they're recreated into a pair of equally flashy glasses. Either way, the effect and their location in Kakariko Village remains the same, so I'll explain where to find them in the Remake below.How to get the Lense

• How to complete the Heart of the Fist quest in Phantom Blade Zero and find the grave

  11-11-2026 16:14 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  The Phantom Blade Zero Heart of the Fist side quest is a very simple one, tasking you with finding the grave of the Iron Fist Master and leaving some incense there for the Iron Fiend. Unfortunately, the only hint that the game gives you is that the grave is in the Mirrorwood. Thankfully, it's not very far at all and you will have walked past the grave at least once or twice while playing through Phantom Blade, so this is where to find it.Phantom Blade Zero Heart of the Fist grave location(Image

• World of Warcraft: Forever review: "A love letter to the MMORPG I fell for over 20 years ago"

  11-11-2026 16:00 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  As I created a Hunter in World of Warcraft: Forever for what must be the 100th time by now, the saying 'the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results' rolled around my head a lot. I've played this game before. A lot. Is Forever truly sufficiently different to be so obsessed again? Well, yes. It's this lovely, warm, flawed, wonderfully infuriating dose of nostalgia. It's simultaneously far improved from the original World of Warcraft and, m

• Doom Meets Classic Disney In Mouse: P.I. For Hire, Now At Its Lowest Price Ever

  11-11-2026 16:00 via GameSpot - All Content
  
  Pairing the classic feel of Mickey Mouse in the iconic Steamboat Willie cartoon from the late 1920s with the brutal, energetic thrill of a boomer shooter sounds like an odd mix—but it’s one that Mouse: P.I. For Hire nails. Emulating nostalgic cartoons from the past and combining them with one of my favorite styles of FPS games makes it an indie game that I have to celebrate. And now, you can celebrate with me, especially while it's at its lowest price yet.It’s easy to see the visuals of Mo

• "The snowboarding minigame is just essential," says FF7 Revelation director "There really was no other option for us!"

  The original Final Fantasy 7 might have featured heaps of command battles and a dense, complex mythos, but it's more than its ecologically-forward story that connected us to the game's world. Filled with a whole planet of towns to explore and people to chat with, Cloud and his RPG party frequently take time to embed themselves in these communities. Taking part in activities and minigames is a huge part of that. Who among us didn't spend whole afternoons just chilling at the Gold Saucer like we w

• The Rings of Power season 3's new heroic Orc character offers a fresh perspective on Middle-earth

  11-11-2026 15:00 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  Adapting Tolkien's sprawling canon of Middle-Earth lore, The Rings of Power explores ideas and locations that we don't get to see in the main Lord of the Rings trilogy. We visit Númenor and the Southlands, and witness a new side to characters like Galadriel and Gandalf. But as the show began to spend more time on the rise of Sauron, one perspective seemed a little underdeveloped: that of the Orcs, the much-maligned race who make up most of Sauron's army.In The Rings of Power season 3, we finall

• Before GTA Online, GTA 4 Free Mode Was The Best Playground

  11-11-2026 15:00 via GameSpot - All Content
  
  For over a decade, Grand Theft Auto 5 has consistently topped sales charts, and its staying power is largely attributed to the eternally popular GTA Online. The ever-evolving multiplayer component of GTA V is a massive force in its own right, and for good reason. But while I had my fun dabbling with the expansive GTA Online, nostalgia for its online predecessor in 2008’s Grand Theft Auto 4 has a hold on me.Online multiplayer in GTA 4 wasn’t the main selling point for the Xbox 360 and PS3 gam

  Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick has praised The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake amid chatter that it's competing with GTA 6.November 2026 has been pretty barren as far as major AAA releases are concerned, with publishers flooding the September and October 2026 markets, as well as February 2027, to avoid the monolith that is GTA 6. Nintendo, however, is unbothered, moisturized, happy, in its lane, focused, and flourishing, as it released The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake regardless

• This RPG may be the closest we’ll get to a D&D-style Legend of Zelda game, and it’s magnificent

  11-11-2026 13:42 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  The greatest compliment I can give the Legend of Zelda-inspired Twilight Sword RPG is "I have no idea how they weren't sued while making this." It distills everything that makes Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker, and the rest so beloved before lacing that knowledge into a D&D-style game. I was able to get my hands on a physical copy early, and as a lifelong Legend of Zelda fan who also happens to adore the best tabletop RPGs, believe me when I say that Twilight Sword is entirely my jam.

  Blizzard is meeting gold-starved World of Warcraft: Forever players halfway by making more quests more generous regarding the resource. That said, an old feature that plenty used to grind gold is staying gone. When WoW: Forever launched, players racing to level up as swiftly as possible found that the XP-to-gold conversion for quests completed at max level was no longer present. If you'd like a quick history lesson, Blizzard added the feature to OG WoW before Burning Crusade launched, and it wor
