Spray Paint Simulator review – GameSpew

1 week ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

With the success of PowerWash Simulator, I’m surprised it’s taken so long for one to come along where you paint things rather than clean them. Spray Paint Simulator by North Star Video Games lets you set up and run your very own spray painting business. And with a varied assortment of jobs on offer as well as a Free Spray mode that lets you get creative, it’s a somewhat rewarding and relaxing experience. Your first task in your spray painting career is giving a car a makeover for a friend.
Elden Ring Nightreign review – GameSpew

1 week ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

How do you enjoy playing Elden Ring? I ask because your answer will perhaps largely indicate whether you’ll enjoy Elden Ring Nightreign or not, a new entry in the hugely successful series which combines its iconic hard-as-nails action with roguelike mechanics. Basically, if you play it for the challenge and find the idea of trying to do no-hit runs and suchlike fun, you’ll probably get on like a house on fire.
Sony has revealed the PS Plus Essential games for June – GameSpew

1 week ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

We’re just a few days from the start of June, and Sony has revealed the line-up of games that PS Plus Essential and higher subscribers can look forward to adding to their libraries. It’s not a bad month, actually, with four games up for grabs across a range of genres. Perhaps the highlight of the June PS Plus game line-up for many will be NBA 2K25, the latest entry in 2K’s basketball game series.
Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D Remake launches in October – GameSpew

1 week ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

Square Enix has finally revealed a release date for Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D Remake, giving old-school JRPG fans something to look forward to. Unfortunately it’s still some time away, though, as it’s set to launch on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, Switch 2 and PC on 30th October – a good five months away. For those wondering why Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD Remake is landing after the remake of Dragon Quest 3, it’s because that title was actually a prequel.

Elden Ring Nightreign is now just one week away. With that in mind, those looking forward to exploring the Lands Between in this new action-roguelike entry in the series might be keen to know exactly when they’ll be able to jump in. Thankfully FromSoftware and Bandai Namco have provided the answer. We know when we’ll be able to pre-load the title, too. A neat visual has been released letting players know when Elden Ring Nightreign will be available to play in various regions of the world.
Playing two chapters of Braking Point in F1 25 has got me hungry for more – GameSpew

2 weeks ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

EA Sports F1 25 launches next week, but before I deliver my full review, I’ve been able to play through the first two chapters of its continuation of the Braking Point story mode, first introduced in F1 2021. The good news is that while it continues the story of Konnersport, a helpful recap makes it fairly accessible to newcomers. And from what I’ve played of it so far, it seems to be just as dramatic as ever while also giving players more agency.
You might want to check out Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon if you love The Elder Scrolls – GameSpew

2 weeks ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

Like The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon begins with you in prison. Having already determined their appearance and name, it’s here where choices are made that determine your character’s class and background, setting you up for the journey ahead. Because, of course, you won’t be behind bars for long. Still, you’ll need to fight your way through an underground area and experience some weird exposition before you’re let into the game’s open world proper.
id has sneakily made DOOM: The Dark Ages a bit harder – GameSpew

2 weeks ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

If you’ve been playing DOOM: The Dark Ages, you’ll know that it has a wealth of difficulty options, allowing you to tweak it to your preferences. Despite this, however, some players have been complaining that it’s too easy, and it appears that developer id Software agrees to some degree. As a result, it has sneakily made the game a little more difficult. We say sneakily because it’s not been done via the usual method, i.e. an update that contains balance changes, bug fixes and more.
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 announced, will launch in 2026 – GameSpew

2 weeks ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

Old-fashioned first-person shooters are rather popular right now, and one of the best of them is Auroch Digital’s Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, which is just coming up to its 2nd anniversary. There’s good news for those who have played it to completion: it’s been announced at this year’s Warhammer Skulls Showcase that a sequel is on the way. It’s not got a firm release date just yet, but Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 is planned to launch on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC in 2026.
Preview: Stealth fans will want to keep Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream on their radar – GameSpew

2 weeks ago | gamespew.com | Richard Seagrave

I don’t think I’ve ever played a stealth game that looks as good as the upcoming Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream by River End Games. In fact, few games are as impeccably presented, full stop. From the moment you begin playing, you’ll be blown away by the quality of its story scenes, which combine brilliant motion capture with stunningly detailed visuals. If someone were to pass by while one was playing, they’d think you were watching a TV show or a movie.
