Corsair’s Virtuoso Max Wireless is the latest flagship in their high-end headset lineup, aiming to deliver a luxurious blend of design, audio prowess, and cutting-edge features. Building on the legacy of the Virtuoso series, this headset combines premium materials with a robust feature set tailored for gamers, streamers, and multimedia enthusiasts. After extensive testing, I’m impressed by its build quality, sound, and intuitive controls, but the comfort issues from previous models persist, and its hefty price tag demands scrutiny. Let’s break it down. Design and Build Quality The Virtuoso Max is a looker from the moment you unbox it. Its […]

The announcement of Elden Ring Nightreign last year was a surprise for most players. Following the release of what has become FromSoftware's most celebrated action RPG to date and its expansion, it has been reiterated multiple times that a sequel was not in development, suggesting that it would be a while until Tarnished could return to the Lands Between, counting teased IP expansions that most thought were a few years away. The doors of the Roundtable Hold, however, could not stay shut for long, and the iconic location is about to be opened up to welcome the Nighfarers and aid […]

F1 games are ones I've played quite a lot in the past. Most of them, in reality. Having seen Codemasters grow the series and their acquisition by EA, it would always be interesting to see how they progress the series in the future. It was also going to be interesting because, and let's be completely honest, F1 as a motorsport does not change much, so what have Codemasters and EA done in F1 25 to make it stand apart from the rest? Brad Pitt, that's what they've done. I didn't even know there was a film based on F1 coming […]

When I first heard about Deliver At All Costs, it was through Steam Next Fest buzz from earlier in the year. I didn't see much of it, I didn't even check out the demo at the time, because I was busy going through a bunch of other Steam Next Fest games. But I kept seeing it pop up on the lists I would read of Next Fest demos to check out. It looked interesting, and like it would be a fun and funny game to play for a few hours. That cursory knowledge of it made me jump at the […]

Spanish game development studio MercurySteam may not be among the most popular video game development studios, but the team would definitely deserve far better recognition for having contributed much to popular classic series like Konami's Castlevania and Nintendo's Metroid. It's with the latter series that the developer showed its chops the best, creating with Metroid Dread what is, in my opinion, one of the best entries in the entire franchise. Still, MercurySteam has yet to put out that one original game that would put them on most players' radars. Is the studio's first original game in a while, Blades of […]

AceZone is far from being a widely recognizable brand, but there's no doubt that the Danish company deserves to be as popular as other headset manufacturers, as its products geared towards eSports are of the highest quality, and are absolutely worthy of their prices. The high prices of products such as the A-Spire Wireless which I had the chance to try out earlier this year is effectively the only reason why it has failed to reached a wider audience, as some of its advanced features, such as its excellent Active Noise Cancelling tech, are great to have even in everyday […]

DOOM, a series likely thought dead during its twelve-year hiatus (not including re-releases) between DOOM 3 and 2016's DOOM reboot, is on a high. The success of DOOM, followed by the release of DOOM Eternal, means it was inevitable that a new release would come. What I didn't expect was the direction of that, which is where DOOM: The Dark Ages comes in. By abandoning multiplayer and opting for a pure single-player and narrative-focused experience, DOOM: The Dark Ages takes the series somewhere different and a little medieval. DOOM: The Dark Ages is a prequel to DOOM (2016) and DOOM […]

There can be something strangely unsettling about stop-motion animation, particularly the old-school stuff made before the likes of Wallace & Gromit gave the medium a softer edge. A few games over the years have tapped into that stop-motion aesthetic (last year's Harold Halibut being a good example) but the new handcrafted horror game The Midnight Walk really leans into the creepiness that sometimes accompanies the art form. The makers of The Midnight Walk, veterans of games like Fe and Lost in Random, went the extra mile, constructing actual physical models of all their characters and key props, which were then […]

Ever since FromSoftware's Souls series started rising in popularity, the vast majority of action role-playing games developed by smaller and more established studios have been inspired in some capacity by the Japanese developer's franchise. While many of these games are great experiences on their own, they highlighted how the genre is suffering from some homogenization, where very few are the games that try to break from the mould and offer something different. For this reason, I could not help but appreciate Empyreal's approach to the genre when I first tried it in February. While the game doesn't leave a great […]

If you've been following Raccoon Logic in anticipation of Revenge of the Savage Planet coming out, then you're probably already aware of the journey the studio has been through to get here. Founded in Montreal in 2017 as an independent team under the name Typhoon Studios and acquired two years later by Google, Typhoon would end up being hit by the collateral damage caused by Google not knowing what to do with Stadia. When Stadia was shuttered, Typhoon went with it. And, as we've seen before in video games, it didn't matter that their first game, Journey to the Savage […]

When Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was announced last year, it came out of nowhere and immediately captured the attention of role-playing game enthusiasts. With traditional party-based role-playing games finding less and less representation in the AAA space, the debut game from Sandfall Interactive looked like the game that could bring the genre into the spotlight without being a nostalgia-fueled experience, as the setting, story and main cast of characters looked very unique, and far removed from those we are now used to see in similar games. In the end, the game's dark fantasy Belle Époque setting, the members of Expedition […]

In early 2023, we got our first taste of the latest PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSDs, offering up to 10,000 MB/s read and write capabilities. These drives were fast, but we knew that faster drives would enter the market sooner or later as the technology matured. Furthermore, these Gen5 drives became more accessible to a wider range of audiences with the introduction of mainstream AMD & Intel boards. While offering 10 GB/s speeds as a start, SSD manufacturers have quickly started rolling out faster drives by optimizing thermal designs and utilizing enhanced NAND solutions. Crucial has been at the top of […]

We have seen at least three generations of motherboards, first with the 600-series, which had Z690 as the top SKU, and then two generations of 700-series based on the top Z790 chipset, which included a soft refresh for the 14th Gen lineup.

Now that Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 has a firm release window of October 2025, new developer The Chinese Room (which replaced Hardsuit Labs a few years ago) has discussed the long-awaited role-playing game sequel in an exclusive interview that appeared in the latest issue of PC Gamer magazine. Speaking of the game's dialogues, Game Director Alex Skidmore emphasized that they will feel like a maze, partly to avoid people just heading straight toward the standard good choice options. We ultimately want narrative exploration, so each of those dialogue trees is a kind of maze. So we didn’t want […]

No matter how it is looked at, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is one of the few video games released to date that can be described as magical. Launching at a time when the medium was about to blow up like it never managed to do before, the fourth entry in the series by Bethesda took everything its predecessor did right, and brought it up to eleven in such a way that no one who happened to get acquainted with Emperor Uriel Septim VII in the dungeons of the Imperial Prison could ever forget the journey through Cyrodiil to prevent […]

At CES this year, both Intel and AMD announced their big guns for the laptop segment. The Blue Team lined up its Arrow Lake-HX family while the Red Team showed their Fire Range offerings. As of today, Intel is the first to have these laptops available on the market, and they are packing some insane performance. Intel makes things simple by using the "HX" branding for its top-of-the-line, desktop-class mobile CPUs, while AMD's "HX" branding is adopted by both mainstream chips, such as Strix Halo, and the true desktop-class offerings, the Dragon Range and Fire Range series.

La Quimera is a new story-driven, linear FPS from Reburn, the studio formerly known as 4A Games Ukraine. While 4A Games was initially founded and entirely located in Ukraine, as Reburn chief executive officer Dmytro Lymar explained to Wccftech previously, when the Russian Federation invaded Ukraine in 2014, the studio split between a Ukraine-based team and another based in Malta. But Reburn didn't start developing La Quimera over a decade ago. Development began in 2020, after work on Metro Exodus was complete, and the studio took a new name shortly after Embracer Group acquired 4A Games. Suppose you're like me, […]

In the recent past, we have seen the rise of titles heavily inspired by gaming greats that offer an enjoyable time thanks to the high quality of their experiences, which makes it easy to see past the almost complete lack of innovation. At the same time, some of these games allow fans of genres that don't see much representation nowadays to experience more of what they love. This is exactly what Storm in a Teacup's Steel Seed is: a very solid action-adventure game that immediately brings the Uncharted series, and in turn, other games that have been heavily inspired by […]

Well, Epomaker is one of the leading keyboard manufacturers, but is one of their more impressive offerings, and it is rather for an odd reason.

The Talos Principle is one of video game's most well-known happy accidents. Before its release, players knew developer Croteam for their Serious Sam games. Each Serious Sam game couldn't be any further from the kind of game that The Talos Principle is. That's why it was no surprise to me when I learned that development for The Talos Principle began as development for a new Serious Sam game.

Atomfall is a game that came out of nowhere for me.
