The Witcher 4: The People, Places, and Secrets of the Tech Demo

3 days ago | ign.com | Matt Purslow

In a huge reveal at this week’s Unreal Fest Orlando, Epic Games and developer CD Projekt Red showcased a technical demonstration of The Witcher 4. Built in Unreal Engine 5 using many of the latest tools and technologies, it offers a window into the future of The Witcher; not just in terms of what Ciri’s saga will (hopefully) look like, but also the people we’ll meet, the places we’ll go, and the general vibe of the game we’ll one day get our hands on.
How CD Projekt Red Got Cyberpunk 2077 Running on Switch 2

5 days ago | ign.com | Matt Purslow

Nintendo’s big reveal of the Switch 2 back in April came with many surprises, but perhaps the most unexpected of them was that Cyberpunk 2077 was among the launch lineup. While the Switch 2 may be a whole new generation for Nintendo, the console is – much like its predecessor – relatively modest when it comes to hardware horsepower. Cyberpunk 2077, meanwhile, is one of the most technically ambitious video games ever made.
The Witcher 4 va a ser enorme, pero tú serás el artífice de su grandeza. CD Projekt habla sobre el arte del diseño y toma de decisiones

CD Projekt Red tiene la reputación de crear juegos especiales. The Witcher 3, que ahora celebra su décimo aniversario, sigue siendo frecuentemente citado como uno de los mejores, si no el mejor, RPG jamás creado. Mientras tanto, Cyberpunk 2077, gracias a algunas mejoras sustanciales, se ha convertido en uno de los ejemplos más profundos y robustos dentro del género de rol de mundo abierto.
The Last of Us Season 2 Episode 6: TV Show vs Game Comparison

2 weeks ago | ign.com | Matt Purslow

The following article contains spoilers for The Last of Us season 2, episode 6. Season 2 of The Last of Us has thus far presented events in chronological order, a departure from the game’s frequent dips into non-linearity. That means there are several important flashbacks it has skipped over – fan favourites like Ellie’s birthday at the Wyoming museum and Joel singing Future Days.
How the Creators of The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 Became the Masters of Choice and Consequence

2 weeks ago | ign.com | Matt Purslow

CD Projekt Red has a reputation for making special games. The Witcher 3, now celebrating its 10th anniversary, is still frequently cited as one of, if not the best, RPG ever made. Meanwhile, Cyberpunk 2077 has (thanks to some substantial upgrades) blossomed into one of the deepest, most robust examples of open-world roleplaying. These two games alone have made the studio one of the most famous and respected in the world, not to mention its other, equally fascinating releases.
Doom : The Dark Ages doit beaucoup au maraudeur d’Eternal

3 weeks ago | fr.ign.com | Matt Purslow

Quand Hugo Martin, le réalisateur de Doom: The Dark Ages, a balancé que le mot d’ordre de ce nouvel opus était « rester debout et se battre » lors du Developer Direct de Xbox plus tôt cette année, on a tout de suite tendu l’oreille. Une déclaration qui tranche radicalement avec la philosophie de Doom Eternal, un shooter qui carburait au mouvement perpétuel et aux fusillades sous amphétamines. Pourtant, dans ce ballet frénétique, un seul ennemi exigeait déjà qu’on tienne la position : le Maraudeur.
Doom: The Dark Ages Owes a Lot to Eternal’s Marauder

When director Hugo Martin explained that the mantra for Doom: The Dark Ages was “stand and fight” during Xbox’s Developer Direct earlier this year, I was instantly enticed. It's an idea in direct opposition to id Software’s previous game, Doom Eternal, a shooter built on hyper-kinetic, perpetually mobile firefights. There is, however, a single enemy in Eternal that does demand you “stand and fight” – the Marauder.
The Last of Us Season 2 Episode 5: TV Show vs Game Comparison

3 weeks ago | ign.com | Matt Purslow

The following article contains spoilers for The Last of Us season 2, episode 5. Ellie’s descent into violence truly kicks off in this week’s episode of The Last of Us. The show’s fifth chapter sees her brutally assault Nora in the spore-infested basement of the WLF’s hospital base. It’s one of the game’s most recognisable scenes and remains similarly harrowing in HBO’s adaptation. This and three other key sequences from the original game were adapted for this episode.

4 weeks ago | fr.ign.com | Simon Cardy |Matt Purslow |Paul Blanchard

Rockstar prend, mais Rockstar donne aussi. En tout cas un petit peu. Grand Theft Auto VI a peut-être été reporté au 26 mai 2026, mais nous avons eu droit cette semaine a un lot de consolation en la forme d'un trailer. Près de trois minutes de nouvelles images qui plongent dans l'histoire et le monde du jeu. Nous avons passé ces trois minutes au peigne le plus fin que nous pouvions trouver et relevé pas mal de détails allant d'élément scénaristiques aux anecdotes les plus mineures.
