One of the stranger moments of my career was reviewing a game, giving it a four-page review and a well-deserved score of 89 percent in the then-massively-selling UK PC Gamer magazine, and then the game not coming out for another eight months. That was just one example of the nightmares Psychonauts—Double Fine’s magnum opus—went through on its path to becoming one of the most beloved games of all time. It’s now 20 years since its official U.S. release, and that deserves celebration.

I love being able to come to you with something completely and utterly gorgeous, uplifting, and entertaining. The Beekeeper’s Picnic, a Sherlock Holmes point-and-click adventure, gives us a few hours in the post-retirement life of the great detective, and the opportunity to shape his relationship with an elderly Watson. It’s an uplifting, gentle tale, packed with superbly informed references to Arthur Conan Doyle’s fiction, delivered with a bucolic charm.

I’m excited to play Mario Kart World for all the obvious reasons, not least among them that it’s the first new Mario Kart in 11 years. But today’s mini Mario Kart Direct confirmed for me that I’m most interested in the Free Roam mode. It’s the Burnout Paradise sequel I’ve been waiting for since 2008.

It’s probably fair to say that zombie movies and TV shows have something of a pattern. There’s an outbreak, we cut to years later when only a few survive, then follow a small band of survivors who get stuck on the roof of a mall. I think that’s about 90 percent of them. Which is why the complete weirdness featured in the latest trailer for 28 Years Later is so incredibly welcome. One of the greatest TV shows ever made was Damon Lindelof’s 2014 series The Leftovers.

Leaks yesterday revealed screenshots from the still unannounced but imminently releasing remaster of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Today, other leakers say Bethesda is also working on a remake of Fallout 3. This happens the same month the PC received The Last of Us Part II Remastered, meaning we can only be minutes away from the announcement of The Last of Us Part I getting a re-re-remaster for PS5 Pro.
