Cult of the Lamb: Woolhaven Gameplay Revealed

Time to Shepherd Some Snowy Sacrifices Cult of the Lamb is back to remind everyone that adorable farm animals are probably the most dangerous cultists alive. Massive Monster has lifted the fluffy black curtain back a little, revealing the first real look at Woolhaven, the game’s next massive DLC expansion. It appears that winter is coming for our wooly-worshipping followers, and survival might take more than just good vibes and ritual sacrifice this time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgG59KTjDqs Video: Cult of the Lamb | Woolhaven Announcement Trailer | Massive Monster If you want to see the chaos for yourself, the Woolhaven trailer features new environments, new creatures to tame, and plenty of corruption crawling under the ice. Definitely worth the watch imo. You can also check out the full announcement post on Steam to see what the devs spilled about Yngya, the mountain, and […]

Sonic Rumble November Release Date After Delays 2025

Sonic Rumble Finally Releasing in November: About Damn Time

I can’t believe I’m even typing this, but it looks like Sonic Rumble is finally releasing this November. After over a year of constant delays, pre-registration spam, and tone-deaf event announcements, SEGA is actually ready to hit the green light. Or at least, that’s what they’re telling us…again. According to Gematsu, the global release is now scheduled for November 2025, which honestly feels like a sentence I’ve been copy-pasting for months at this point. The official Sonic Rumble site even promises that the version we’ll be playing this November has been “designed, polished, and perfected.” Sure...I’ll believe it when it’s actually on my phone and not behind another “quality improvement delay.” The Never-Ending Sonic Rumble Delays When Sonic Rumble was first announced, it looked like it had all of the ingredients for an instant hit: a 32-player party brawler featuring Sonic […]

Phasmophobia’s Crimson Eye Hotfix Exorcises Some Pesky Bugs

Crimson Eye Event Gets a Crucial Phasmophobia Hotfix Ghost hunters, rejoice - Kinetic Games just cast out a few of the nastier bugs haunting Phasmophobia’s Crimson Eye event. Phasmophobia's Halloween event dropped with its fair share of supernatural fun (and supernatural lag), but a few players were getting spooked for all of the wrong reasons. Lobby connections, random pop-ups, and weird audio were all creeping their way into investigations...and the devs finally decided that enough was enough. Image: Phasmophobia Crimson Eye Halloween Event Hotfix | Kinetic Games The new Phasmophobia hotfix update (v0.14.2.1) is now live across all platforms, cleaning up some lingering messes from the Crimson Eye patch: Fixed players getting stuck on the “Connecting” screen when joining via friend invite. Removed that random pop-up message when unlocking the Child of the Cult foil badge. Main menu radio now plays […]

Why Game Rant Tried to Rewrite Hogwarts Legacy Boycott History

Why Game Rant Tried to Rewrite the “Boycott” of Hogwarts Legacy

Game Rant’s Hogwarts Legacy 2 Take Got Ratioed Game Rant decided to light itself on fire this week after posting on Twitter, the post getting immediately bodied with a Community Note correcting it: If Hogwarts Legacy 2 wants to avoid the same boycotts its predecessor faced, the sequel cannot take the same approach that the original did. https://t.co/LJIMjUHhW8 pic.twitter.com/Wf1PTKreNa— Game Rant (@GameRant) October 12, 2025 In other words, the so-called “boycott” Game Rant referenced was about as effective as trying to cancel oxygen. Hogwarts Legacy wasn’t just successful - it dominated, becoming the best-selling game of 2023 worldwide and one of the biggest single-player launches in gaming history.Even hilariously eliciting a Hogwarts Legacy fluff piece from Game Rant themselves at the time! So why is a major gaming publication trying to actively rewrite history? The answer’s actually pretty simple. It’s the same reason when […]

A Game Journalist’s Checklist Before Crying About Difficulty Online

Your Easy Guide for Not Embarrassing Yourself Online So, you’ve died a few dozen times in Hollow Knight: Silksong or just lost another ranked match in Marvel Rivals. Instead of blaming your own thumbs, you’ve decided the entire game is just broken, the difficulty is outdated, and the devs should need to make games easier. But before you rush to file another 1,200-word “Why Boss Fights Hurt My Fee Fees” article, let’s pause for a quick moment of self-reflection. Welcome to the Game Journalist’s Checklist!  Feeling particularly altruistic, I've went the extra mile to help the modern games journalist with 10 handy questions you should ask yourself before embarrassing your chosen profession on Twitter. (Yes, today we’re talking to the "Alyssa Walkers" of gaming. Grab a notebook, because class is in session!) 1. Have you tried not button mashing and actually […]

Ghost of Yotei Phantom Sales and Manufactured Hype

Ghost of Yotei: Phantom Sales and the Manufactured Hype

When Ghost of Yotei launched, Suckerpunch and Sony’s marketing machine kicked into overdrive - gaming media proudly claimed that the game sold 1.3 million copies on day one, just barely edging out Ghost of Tsushima’s first-day numbers.On paper, that sounds impressive. But when you start digging into the numbers...something doesn’t quite add up. This isn’t about conspiracy theories or wild speculation. The facts themselves are suspicious enough to raise eyebrows. Between the supposed “insider” tweet that started the fire, the exaggerated praise from certain journalists, and the eerily consistent talking points across major outlets, it all feels like another case of what I like to call the Manufactured Hype Virus. The Phantom Sales Begin The story starts with a tweet from an account named Millie A (@millieamand). The post claimed, “Hearing, 1.3 million sold on first day for Yotei. Ever so slightly ahead of […]

REPO Tumble Grab: How the Monster Update Changes Everything

What the Hell Is Tumble Grab in REPO? REPO has never been shy about tossing players around like ragdolls, but the upcoming Tumble Grab mechanic takes that chaos to a whole new level. In the October Monster Update, players tumbling through the air won’t just be helpless flailing meat sacks anymore. They’ll actually be able to grab onto the environment. That means walls, ceilings, weapons, even random objects within reach. It’s peak REPO physics turned all the way up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhLiGf_2SN8 Video: This New Feature Might Break Our Game | semiwork Of course, there’s a catch...the new tumble Grab eats up stamina, so you can’t cling to every wall forever. Semiwork’s already said they’re treating it as a “twerk in progress.” That’s dev-speak for yes, this will be broken and hilarious before they balance it. And honestly, that’s probably the best part.
