The Zero of Kvatch
It's now been a full month since the shadow drop release of Oblivion Remastered, and players are still waiting on some much needed improvements.

Emperor willing
A new community update from Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive gives us a little more insight into the biggest update yet for Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2.

News Oblivion Remastered Updates in the Oven, Bethesda Wants Your Feedback for Improvements
Remastering Remastered
When Oblivion Remastered was shadow dropped last week, questions were being asked of the game's post-launch support. Was it just going to be a one-and-done that Bethesda and Virtuos would immediately leave behind? Fortunately not, as it turns out. Bethesda is actually being surprisingly hands-on with the whole thing, going as...
News Oblivion Remastered PS5 Patch in Limbo as Xbox Users Get a Performance Boost
Anytime now
Late last week, a new update for Oblivion Remastered launched on Xbox and PC — but there's still no sign of said patch on PS5.

As it happens, this seems to be an update aimed at...
News Dynasty Warriors: Origins Patch 1.005 Adds a Fantastic Photo Mode, New Armour
Snapping pictures instead of bones
It's been a few months since Dynasty Warriors: Origins restored our faith in Koei Tecmo's hack and slash franchise, but it's still nice to see the game getting a fresh update. Patch 1.005 is just a few hundred MB in terms of download size, but it adds a couple of cool extras. First up, there's now a fully fledged...
Also addresses PS5 crashes
A small update for Assassin's Creed Shadows will be deployed later today (the 16th April), Ubisoft has confirmed.

News New Dragon's Dogma 2 Patch Is Just Trolling Us at This Point
Dragon it out
A new update for Dragon's Dogma 2 is available to download right now on PS5, but after an eternity of silence from Capcom — outside of the game's first anniversary, which was a complete non-event anyway — this certainly isn't the kind of patch that sparks immediate hope for the title's future. Weighing in at a meagre 454MB, the...

News Tekken 8 Reveals 'Emergency' Patches as Player Backlash Spirals Out of Control
Tekken it lower
We don't envy the Tekken 8 development team right now. The popular fighting game just got its big Season 2 update, but to say that it's gone down poorly amongst players would be just about the greatest understatement of 2025 so far. The backlash has been immense, and it's only grown worse over the last day or so. Tekken 8 is...

The instant reaction from...

Things are heating up
Tekken 8 is on the brink of becoming a much changed game.

News Overlooked PS5, PS4 Roguelite Warriors: Abyss Gets a Big Crossover Update with the Atelier RPGs
Fresh ingredients
Warriors: Abyss is a really solid (and satisfyingly chaotic) roguelite action RPG that released back in February — and we must admit, the post-launch support has been surprisingly good so far. The game's second major update is out now, and it adds three new playable characters from Koei Tecmo's Atelier series. More specifically,...
Follow the Path
Grinding Gear Games has spilled the beans on the first major update for Path of Exile 2 — and there are a lot of beans.

News Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Issues New PS5 Patch, Changes UI and Performance Mode
Removes visual artifacts, new game option

Temper yourself

Rumour me this
Dynasty Warriors: Origins patch 1.003 is now available to download on PS5, weighing in at a very reasonable 220MB.

No mention of PS5 Pro fixes
Patch 5 for Dragon Age: The Veilguard is available to download now on PS5, weighing in at around 500MB.
