End Of Abyss is a Dark Soulsy shooter spawned from the bowels of Little Nightmares

Early in my hands-on for End Of Abyss, the developer sitting next to me expressed surprise at how readily and consistently I was using the game's handheld scanner. I myself was surprised - perhaps even appalled - to hear that other journalists had been neglecting it. End Of Abyss, you see, takes place in an underground plate-metal labyrinth where every corner is a huddle of waiting shadows, every doorway a mystery, and every ventilation fan a web of fungal grot. I hate to cast aspersions on other members of the press, but you would have to be an absolute chowderhead to explore such a warren using your eyes alone. This is a world that feels like it's holding its breath. Read more

The first plausible Sony handheld specs leaks emerge - but how capable can it be?

Quietly in the background, plausible technical specifications for Sony's next generation handheld have come to light. Bearing in mind that we're likely years away from release, the plausibility of these specs has to be questioned but at the same time, the source of the leak - KeplerL2 - has proven to be a highly reliable source for all sorts of AMD information. He was also first to corroborate the PlayStation 5 Pro spec leaks and his information turned out to be very, very close to what we received as final hardware. His Sony handheld specs are unusually detailed for a project so far out, but to be fair, they do lack highly important context: the chip at the heart of the machine is built on AMD's new graphics architecture - known by some as UDNA - but nobody quite knows what it is capable of. Therefore, getting a grip on what this machine is capable of will prove challenging. Read more

Stellar Blade director kicks the horny nest, says steamy stuff's fine, but modders adding fresh twists would be cooler

Stellar Blade modders have made a lot of sexual stuff so far. As it turns out, the game's director is cool with that, though he is hoping that despite the game not having any official tools, modders'll have a go at creating fresh wrinkles that add to what the Stellar Blade experience offers. Hyung-tae Kim gave his opinion on where the game's modding scene is currently at in a recent interview with South Korean site This Is Game, translated by Automaton and Genki. Read more

Blow up strange new worlds in Away Team, a Spelunky-style base builder from the Oxygen Not Included devs

Invisible Inc and Don't Starve developers Klei Interactive have announced Away Team, a 2D base-building game from the same universe as Oxygen Not Included. I have yet to play Oxygen Not Included, but Klei seldom miss - their Mark Of The Ninja remains one of my favouritest ninja shankfests - and Away Team already seems very appealing for putting a deeply inhumane emphasis on traitorous physics. Here be trailer. Read more
