"The original team is clearly no longer together"
Deep Down was announced all the way back at the PlayStation 4's original reveal event in February 2013, and six years later, it has never seen the light of day. The only glimpse we got of the game was a single slice of gameplay footage, but the project has gone completely dark since then. The...

Stream fighter
Most video game genres can translate well to a streaming service if you've got a good enough connection, but there's one type of experience that is always going to suffer no matter what.

Another monster hit for Capcom
Monster Hunter World: Iceborne has got off to a great start in Japan. The expansion managed to sell 250,000 units at launch -- a number that, at first glance, doesn't seem hugely impressive.

How many times have we heard a decidedly dodgy rumour about PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale 2? Here's one from 2014. Here's another from 2017. And there have been plenty more in between.
