- Wo Long is already Team Ninja's biggest ever Steam launch, despite PC port issues - 3 March 2023
The past few hours have been good to legendary developer Team Ninja. The studio just launched Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty on all platforms, but its performance on PC is especially notable. The PC version, available on Steam, the Windows Store, as well as PC Game Pass , is topping the charts on Valve's platform, far exceeding any previous release from Team Ninja, or publisher Koei Tecmo. As of this writing, Wo Long has so far peaked at nearly 74,000 concurrent players on Steam - per SteamDB , a figure that continues to climb every few minutes. This currently places the action RPG just one spot shy of Steam's top 15 most played games. Read more

- Have You Played… Nioh? - 6 January 2021
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. Nioh might be my favourite soulslike game (alongside its big brother Nioh 2 ), because it twists Miyazaki’s wonder formula into an action RPG that’s more akin to Diablo than Dark Souls . (more…)

- The 10 best games like Dark Souls - 2 October 2019
Sorry, definition nerds. Soulslike is a word now. Disgusting, I know, but this is how genres are made. Along comes a giant like Dark Souls that everybody won t stop bleating about and soon it has copycats. Before you know it, a swarm of like-minded games with sparse checkpoints and lethal attacks are scuttling around, leaving slime trails and biting your ankles for surprisingly massive damage. Ugh, soulslikes. But stoop low to appreciate these little monsters, and among them you ll find some very good games about dying. Here are ten of the best. (more…)
- Spawn Point: a guide to spectacle fighters - 17 May 2019
Welcome back to Spawn Point , where we take something wonderful from the world of gaming and explain what it is, why it s worth your time and how to get involved. This time, we look at Spectacle Fighters , or Character Action Games if you like your genre names vague and uselessly ambiguous. What s so spectacular about these fighters, then? It s Spectacle Fighters, a genre of mostly third-person action games that focuses on the visual spectacle of combat above all else. These are games designed to make you both feel and look like a badass through a huge range of freedom in combat options. They also tend to rate your performance with a score, rank or grade of some kind, usually from D through to S. (more…)
- The 100 best-selling games on Steam in 2018 so far - 6 July 2018
We’ve just passed the half-way point of 2018, so Ian Gatekeeper and all his fabulously wealthy chums over at Valve have revealed which hundred games have sold best on Steam over the past six months. It’s a list dominated by pre-2018 names, to be frank, a great many of which you’ll be expected, but there are a few surprises in there. 2018 releases Jurassic World Evolution, Far Cry 5 Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Warhammer: Vermintide II are wearing some spectacular money-hats, for example, while the relatively lesser-known likes of Raft, Eco and Deep Rock Galactic have made themselves heard above the din of triple-A marketing budgets.

- Nioh brings a ballet of breathtaking violence - 21 June 2018
New Testaments is a new monthly column in which Amr Al-Aaser presents an overlooked modern game and explicates its best ideas. Nioh is the kind of game that this column exists for. On release it quickly saw itself buried beneath the comparisons to Dark Souls , praised for the ways it imitated the series, and criticised for its failings in repeating From Software’s successes. But while Nioh clearly follows in the precedent set for the genre by Dark Souls, it does so in the same way something like Monolith’s BLOOD follows Doom : with a clear lineage, but with very different aims and aesthetic goals. Nothing illustrates this difference in attitude more than the ki pulse. (more…)
