It’s June, meaning the month of “Not E3” is here, bringing dozens of videogame conferences that will collectively showcase hundreds of trailers for upcoming titles. Of these, 2025’s Wholesome Direct just wrapped up, featuring a range of promising releases unified by being “inclusive, sensitive, and emotionally driven,” as the conference’s organizers put it.

    After months of buildup and a predictably stressful pre-order bonanza, the Switch 2 is finally on store shelves, tempting Nintendo heads to drop $450 so they can be the first one on the block with the newest thing.

    Riftbound, the upcoming League of Legends-themed trading card game, is on its way with an October release in the United States, and Riot Games has already had a few hands-on events, including at PAX East, where we got time to understand how the game works. Riot held another hands-on session at last week’s Riftbound Summit, where they outlined several key details about the game.

I put together Paste's Best Anime of 2024 list. The industry continues to be on fire, but that didn't stop talented creatives from making the most of a bad situation with some real showstoppers. Apothecary Diaries, Delicious In Dungeon, DanDaDan, etc.; this year was a good one.

While Prime Video's anthology series Secret Level has a few standouts, its strange source material selections and many humdrum one-offs make this videogame adaptation fall flat. https://t.co/gEsK19hjgV

I had a great talk with Briana White, the voice of Aerith, about the Final Fantasy VII remakes, how she brought her performance to life, and what defines her character.
