Just when you thought World War II shooters were dead and buried, out comes another one. Publisher Team17 has announced that online, massive scale, team-based first-person shooter Hell Let Loose will be hitting early access in early 2019. B...

The recent New Game+ update for Overcooked 2 that added an unlockable fourth star on every level was a nice gesture for high-score chasers, and I'm still working my way through the lot. But, above all, I just wanted more kitchens. That's al...

I've got my money's worth out of Overcooked 2. My wife and I blitzed through every stage (including bonuses) with three stars over the course of a few weeks, and now there's a dreaded fourth star New Game+ mode ready and waiting for free. F...

It's now October and along with censored-for-TV horror movie marathons and copious Halloween bake-offs, it's time for that promised Overcooked 2 update. The console versions have added New Game+ mode. If you're up for the challenge, there's...

That wasn't long at all! And now I'm low-key panicking because I have less time than I thought to get ready for New Game+ mode in Overcooked 2. The update launched today for PC, adding a new fourth star to earn on every level once you beat ...

While I still have a few secret levels to master in Overcooked 2, my time has pretty much come to an end. I was planning on revisiting the co-op cooking action title again sooner than later since it's the type of game that feels fresh when...

Very little about Overcooked 2 will leave you confused. Frustrated, sure. Overcooked's approach to cooperative play -- both players responsible for individual tasks in pursuit of a common goal -- can get so overwhelming for all but the...

I'm so glad Overcooked found a sustainable, adoring audience in the almost two years since I first tried it on a whim. This simple yet hectic cooking game is one of the best co-op titles around. The basic concept is easy -- you assemble foo...

I'm not exaggerating when I say that there are very few games revealed at E3 that I want in my hands right here, right now, more than Overcooked 2. The original is at the top of my list of co-op favorites. The sequel is the same, but more, ...

Team17, which has made much of its fortune on 10,000 (mostly good, amazingly) Worms games, is moving back into the sci-fi scene as a sort of fully realized follow-up to their previous franchise Alien Breed. Just over a year ago they announc...

I'm writing this one as much for me as for you. Yoku's Island Express is a platforming pinball adventure that has slipped on and off my radar a few times now. It's still on track for a Q2 2018 launch on Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 4, a...

While it doesn't have a date nailed down, it's not long until the scheduled release of Yoku's Island Express during the second quarter of this year. In case you've forgotten about the pure bundle of joy/dung beetle pinball game, publisher T...

Today, the veterans at Petroglyph Games announced Forged Battalion, a '90s-centric RTS that hopes to evolve the classic formula. On the surface, you don't get much more Command & Conquer-style than Forged Battalion's trailer - even the ...

My people are starving. You'd think, when settling a polar ice cap, Mission HQ would be sure to send you with more food. But nooo, “there is some arable land, you can farm for yourself. Oh, we seem to have dropped you way too far from...

Team17 had a trio of announcements for the Nintendo Switch today, and although they're all ports, it's nice to hear them confirmed all the same. The big one is Yooka-Laylee -- although we knew that Playtonic Games was toying with ...

Team17 has dipped its toes into the shooter genre in the past with games like Alien Breed (and its modern follow-ups), but they're jumping in with two feet with Genesis Alpha One as its publisher, backing up developer Radiation Bl...

Wait, Yooka-Laylee has multiplayer? Rextro the raptor has an arcade for you and three of your friends to visit and play together both co-operatively and competitively. If you don't have any friends that's OK, Rextro will be your friend as ...

I'm doing my best to keep Yooka-Laylee out of my mind. The less I think about it, the easier it'll be to remain patient. That's the idea. Clearly, though, I am struggling to stick to that plan if I'm writing about the dang game. Today's sho...

Today, the Yooka-Laylee Toybox was released for backers (note: I'm in that group), providing a brief look at the game by way of a pre-alpha sandbox. It's...glorious.

Team17 is teaming up with Roll7 to bring two games to Xbox One under a new name. The updated titles are: Not a Hero Super Snazzy Edition and OlliOlli2 XL. XL will add in a FreeSkate mode, which was apparently a "fan requested feat...

I'm not sure how many more ex-Rare staffers can pile onto the Yooka-Laylee team, but there's room for at least a couple more. Playtonic went on a little hiring spree for its first birthday, adding environmental artist Damien Sparkes (Banjo-...

Ever since the announcement that Team17 would be publishing the Kickstarter-funded Banjo-Kazooie-like Yooka-Laylee, news has been pretty quiet on it. There have been a couple of backer updates, including one showing a cute skeleton girl, bu...

Last month, Lilith brought its home-based horror game, Allison Road, to Kickstarter. The fledgling studio asked for £250,000 in crowdfunding to create what many have called a spiritual successor to P.T., the lead-in to Konami's cancel...

Yooka-Laylee, the Banjo-Kazooie spiritual successor that did incredibly well on Kickstarter a few months back, is apparently getting published by Team17. Best known for the Worms series, it has also been publishing indie titles like Beyond ...

Worms World Party has always been a divisive entry in the long-running series. Released as a followup to the almost universally lauded Worms Armageddon, some viewed it as a welcome refinement to a great game while others saw it as a too-sam...
