The Dungeon Crawler Carl TV Series Could Make or Break the Future of LitRPG Adaptations

Noté 95% sur Steam, ce nouveau Souls-like à l’esthétique bluffante vous plonge dans un univers obscur inspiré… des échecs

Une production indépendante revisite les mécaniques du jeu d'échecs à travers un système d'action à la troisième personne. Centré sur la métamorphose en temps réel et la parade, ce titre enregistre des évaluations très positives de la part du public.

RPG companions need to be hateable, otherwise nobody's going to love them

In my Honour Mode playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3, I romanced Gale—you can see my full thoughts on our under-appreciated wizard boy here. What solidified him as one of my all-time RPG romances, however, wasn't his wit or his very nice hair. It was a conversation in which he acted like a petty little bastard... Read more.

New $2,599 Diablo Release Officially Coming in 2027

The release of a new Diablo game is always a momentous occasion - the series is no stranger to long gaps between releases. It can be a painful wait for fans. Now, there's a brand-new Diablorelease on the way in 2027, coming with an eye-watering $2,599 price tag that will likely put it out of budget for many fans.

The Witcher 3 lead says designing for player curiosity "really came to haunt us" when making sure it felt like "people truly exist" in the RPG's villages

CD Projekt Red developers almost painted themselves into a corner early on in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's production since the team were more focused on giving NPCs believable schedules instead of making sure they reacted to the player appropriately, which led to situations where mothers would chuck their babies on the floor at the first sign of trouble. CD Projekt Red quest designer Philipp Weber described the earlier parts of the open-world game's development in the latest issue of Edge Magazi

Kingdom Hearts 4 finally comes out "late 2027," and Pixar's Coco joins the JRPG as the first Disney world announced so far

Ending a years-long wait between games, Kingdom Hearts 4 is set to come out in late 2027 and we finally have a glimpse at its first official Disney world: Pixar's Coco. During yesterday's Disney Entertainment Showcase panel during D23, the company surprise dropped a brand new trailer for the long-awaited Square Enix JRPG. We see grown-up Sora defeating Heartless monsters in a gorgeous recreation of The Land of the Dead, with full-on makeup and a themed Keyblade to match. Take a look below. http

This 50-Hour Fantasy Audiobook Is the Best Possible Use of an Audible Free Trial

The Wandering Inn is considered to be a part of the LitRPG genre, which is very similar to Dungeon Crawler Carl, and I can't recommend it enough.

Blood of Dawnwalker takes notes from Guitar Hero for the vampire RPG's parrying: "It's so cool that we believe most people will play this way"

It's easy to see why there's The Witcher 3 DNA in Rebel Wolves' Vampire RPG, The Blood of Dawnwalker. After all, the two games share a director, Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, not to mention a number of principal developers who previously worked at CD Projekt Red. Environmental artist Adap Payet has said Anne Rice's formative novel Interview with the Vampire was another inspiration, and again, that's no surprise given its influence on the genre. Possibly the last game in the world I expected to hear have

MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls (PS5) Review

To say I’ve been waiting to get my hands on MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls would be an understatement, so naturally, the road to get to this point has been quite the long one. Since the game was announced, I needed to play it as soon as humanly possible. I love fighting games, and I have played so many good ones over the years. Still, there is something very special and very different about MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls that has absolutely commanded my attention, and I haven’t been able to put it d

As Kingdom Hearts 4 fans await an update at D23, Disney says the JRPG series is now a $1 billion franchise

Disney has nine game franchises that have made over $1 billion, and Kingdom Hearts is one of them, which should hopefully raise the chances of seeing Kingdom Hearts 4 at this weekend's D23 panel. Disney's executive vice president of global games, Sean Shoptaw, recently announced the firm holds "nine games that have grossed over $1 billion at retail" and emphasized the importance of "telling truly original stories that really are unique to this medium, specifically."

Blood of Dawnwalker dev says you can beat the final boss right after the prologue, but it "will be a feat worthy of legends"

Rebel Wolves has made a lot about Blood of Dawnwalker's open-ended campaign and completely non-linear narrative path, having previously said "everything is optional" in the vampiric open-world RPG. In a new video overview of the upcoming title, the developers take that design philosophy and frame it like a challenge, confirming that you can beat the final boss the moment you leave the tutorial section and preemptively handing out "legend" status to anyone capable enough to do so. "You have one

The Elder Scrolls 6 finally showing signs of life won't deter the Bethesda fan who is 132 days into making their own Daggerfall-style RPG

Bethesda recently breathed, or gently sighed, new life into The Elder Scrolls 6 by getting Xbox CEO Asha Sharma to tweet about a "live playthrough" of the game she apparently experienced in some form. The brief, top-level mention re-confirming the existence of the Skyrim follow-up some eight years after its announcement successfully whipped up the Elder Scrolls player base by obscuring its official subtitle behind eight loud asterisks, leading to a soft consensus on what that subtitle is. And

Final Fantasy: Blackmoon Prophecy Remake is Playable Now Completely Free of Charge

Final Fantasy: Blackmoon Prophecy Remake, a massive fan-made RPG inspired by Square Enix's classic series, is available to download and play completely for free on PC.

Marvel Tokon Nears 500K Sales In Its First Week Despite Fighting Games’ Niche Appeal

A week has passed since Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls launched for PC and PS5, and the new fighting game is off to a solid start. According to new estimates by Alinea Analytics, the game has reportedly sold 485,000 units as of August 12, with PS5 being the dominant platform. As outlined by Alinea Analytics’ head of market analysis, Rhys Elliott, the PS5 accounted for 74% of sales, and Steam 26%. That's not too surprising, as the game experienced technical issues on PC.

The response to Game Freak's post-apocalyptic action RPG has not been universally positive.

Final Fantasy VII aurait du être un tout autre jeu vidéo mais ce refus de Square a donné naissance à ce jeu culte

Vous pensiez connaître Final Fantasy VII sur le bout des doigts ? Détrompez-vous. Si la direction de Square n’avait pas freiné un certain Tetsuya Takahashi, le RPG le plus culte des années 90 aurait pris une tournure monumentale.

Phantom Blade Zero: How Donnie Yen is Pushing Action Games to New Heights

For Phantom Blade Zero, the team at developer S-Game is clearly pulling out all the stops in order to bring its bold and exciting vision for kungfupunk to life. By drafting in action movie megastar and martial arts master Donnie Yen to serve as co-producer on its wuxia-inspired action RPG, the Chinese developer is ensuring that every kick, punch, and scintillating sword-slice is delivered with the utmost authenticity and heart-stopping intensity. In 2025, I was fortunate enough to be invited ov
