We're officially in talks with Story Kitchen and Evan Spiliotopoulos about making our long dream of a Broken Sword movie a reality! We hope you understand that we can't go into more detail about any of this yet, but here is the Variety exclusive that just went live 🍿📽️ variety.com/2026/digital...

The Devil in Me remains my favourite TDP game, but I did enjoy hanging with the crew in Directive 8020. That's the great thing about anthologies, right? We all have our favourites. Always happy to have more TDP. www.thegamer.com/directive-80...

I spoke with the lovely peeps at @twopointstudios.bsky.social about Two Point Museum's new DLC, Arty-Facts! I'm obsessed! I'm mourning the loss of my experts who created cute ghosty and emo bear artwork. Learn from my mistakes and keep your favourites safe! www.thegamer.com/two-point-mu...

It's true! I'm hiring another senior writer for my team. Position is FT, remote. Come work with me and some truly brilliant, creative folks to create Cyberpunk 2 💥🦾 www.cdprojektred.com/en/jobs/2205...

Dead as Disco may be in early access, but it’s still my current Game of the Year by a MILE and is filling the hole that Hi-Fi Rush left in my heart! My review: www.thegamer.com/dead-as-disc...

Big thanks to @supermassivegames.bsky.social for the lush Directive 8020 press kit! I always wanted to see what I'd look like if I became purple good! 🤓

I played Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight and I’m finally allowed to talk about it! (and I have a lot to say) www.thegamer.com/lego-batman-...

🚨🚨🚨ANNOUNCEMENT!!!🚨🚨🚨 WAX HEADS IS OUT!!! Our cosy-punk, puzzle narrative record store game is finally out on PC / Switch / PS5 / Xbox This game is our love letter to music, to the way it connects us and a celebration of human made art. We hope you enjoy it ❤️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuAm...

I spent a few hours with 007: First Light last week and it feels like the future of licensed video games. An entertaining mixture of Hitman and Uncharted with a take on Bond sporting plenty of heart. Truly hoping that IO has an absolute banger on its hands here. www.thegamer.com/007-first-li...

I’ve been looking forward to Invincible VS since it was announced, and it was definitely worth the wait. It’s only brought down by a cheeky ending and slightly slim offerings - my review: www.thegamer.com/invincible-v...

I played through some of Yoshi and the Mysterious Book last week and I’ve been itching to get back to it ever since www.thegamer.com/yoshi-and-th...

IGN is hiring! We're looking for a US-based news editor working West Coast hours. They will report into me (hello, I'm the director of news at IGN!), and get to do all sorts of cool stuff about video games and entertainment. Lots more at the link! www.ziffdavis.com/careers/jobs...

I'm so stoked to finally be able to say I had the honour of being a juror for the BAFTA Games Awards this year! It was such an incredible and interesting experience. Thank you @baftagames.bsky.social ❤️

Mario Wonder is one of my favourite Switch games, and it's even better on Switch 2 Read all about it in my review of the Bellabel Park expansion: www.thegamer.com/super-mario-...

After reading @megpelliccio.bsky.social’s review I’m so ready for this.

I made the mistake of visiting a Cloud Island in Pokemon Pokopia, and now I feel like Ralph at the end of Wreck It Ralph. I build rubbish like Q*bert's home, meanwhile, people are making whole beautiful towns in the blink of an eye.

My FFXIV glamour hardly ever changes because I am lazy and I have no fashion sense, but I wish I had even half as much creativity as these awesome people: www.thegamer.com/final-fantas...

A lot of monsters and 12k words later, and I compiled a list of every monster in Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection and its type, weaknesses, location, drops etc and yes I am now seeing monsties in my sleep www.thegamer.com/monster-hunt...

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is the new peak of the series! I've played for over 150 hours and I won't be stopping now just because my review is done. It's my favourite game of 2026 so far, and you can read about why I love it so much in my review: www.thegamer.com/monster-hunt...

It's here! This has been an utter joy to work on for Dragon Age 2's 15th anniversary. Huge thank you to David Gaider for taking me through how he and all of the writers managed to get this fan favourite story finished, with no time for redrafts www.thegamer.com/dragon-age-2...

A very lovely surprise from Mike and The Story Mob team ❤️ thank you so much! And while I'm here, happy International Women's Day for Sunday to all the kickass women I know in this industry 🔥

I'm so ready!!

I really enjoyed Planet of Lana 2, it builds well on what the first established and raises the bar: www.thegamer.com/planet-of-la...

Today, as it turns out, was my last day at Polygon. I'm sure I'll have more to rattle on about later but I'm available.

Scott Pilgrim EX’s announcement was the last time a reveal truly surprised me, and I’m happy to say it mostly lives up to my high hopes! My review: www.thegamer.com/scott-pilgri...

Resident Evil Requiem combines utterly terrifying horror with action so ridiculous it had me smiling like a fool. And somehow, despite some pacing missteps and a couple of irksome flaws, it all works. #ResidentEvilRequiem My full review: www.thegamer.com/resident-evi...

I’m still conflicted about whether Life is Strange: Reunion bringing Chloe Price and Max Caulfield back together is the right choice or simply an attempt to capitalise on the nostalgia of a classic sapphic story. My full preview: www.thegamer.com/life-is-stra...

If you loved the first Paranormasight, you'll love the second too. The puzzle to unlocking the true ending in this one is an absolute doozy though, and I had to have a helping hand to get there so kudos to anyone who manages it alone www.thegamer.com/paranormasig...

You like music? WELLLLLLL you can now listen to some never-heard-before songs on our jukebox preview on top of our refreshed steam page!!!! store.steampowered.com/app/2769240/...

Demon Tides is one of my favourite platformers in recent memory, and one with some surprisingly grand ambitions that it absolutely lives up to - roll on Bubsy 4D! www.thegamer.com/demon-tides-...

Romeo is a Dead Man reviews are all over the place, and that absolutely tracks. It's filled to the brim with odd moments and decisions. It's fun enough, but its frenetic and bewildering narrative choices made it hard to parse and difficult to score. More from me: www.thegamer.com/romeo-is-a-d...

First review of the year and kicking things off very strongly with the brilliant Nioh 3, which I’ve not put down over the past two weeks. My review: www.thegamer.com/nioh-3-review/

Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties Preview - Kiryu has a Daddy Rank. - Mine singing Baka Mitai is everything I didn't know I needed. No other notes. (Well, other than my actual preview piece: www.thegamer.com/yakuza-kiwam...)

A big shout out to @marvelouseurope.bsky.social for ensuring I stay warm and toasty this winter 🐮 thank you!!

I can't believe none of the top five items chosen as the most sought-after FFXIV items this Christmas are minions. Is it just me who obsesses over them this much? 🤣 Can't fault the top pick though, we all saw that coming! www.thegamer.com/final-fantas...

Here's my big interview piece with Larian Studios' founder Swen Vincke on the development of Divinity, learning from Baldur's Gate 3, potential companions, and so much more 👀 Chuffed with this one so please share! #Divinity @larianstudios.com www.thegamer.com/larian-studi...

If you've got me on Insta, this will come as no surprise, but I went out to Dubai for the Red Bull Tetris World Finals! It was absolutely incredible, you have to see Tetris being played on the Dubai Frame to really understand the scope of it!

I also had the chance to speak with Jonathan Blow about his upcoming puzzle game, Order of the Sinking Star! You can check out the interview here: www.thegamer.com/order-of-the...

Forgot to post this as I'm away, but here's my GOTY list for 2025! No prizes for guessing which game is top... www.thegamer.com/game-of-the-...

Day one in Dubai let's go! #redbulltetris

My review is up for Octopath Traveler 0! It's got some blemishes, but hot damn, it's got heart. Easily the best story in the series, and unequivocally the boldest. www.thegamer.com/octopath-tra...

Cosmic Invasion is yet another great beat ‘em up from the masters at Tribute, although Shredder’s Revenge still stands as my all-time favourite. My review: www.thegamer.com/marvel-cosmi...

Big thank you and merry Christmas to @insertcoin.bsky.social who sent me this amazing advent calendar. Presumably I'm meant to start the 12 days of Christmas on the 12th but it's so tempting to start now! 🤩

For the first few hours, I really didn’t get what Kirby Air Riders was going for. I haven’t been able to put it down since it clicked, though, and don’t plan on it anytime soon! My review: www.thegamer.com/kirby-air-ri...

Kirby Air Riders is one of the strangest racers I've ever played, but it's one that I expect I'll be very into www.thegamer.com/kirby-air-ri...

Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment (also known as Jade takes far too many screenshots of Zelda simulator) delivers when it comes to fierce combat and heartfelt storytelling. It's a surprisingly evocative prequel to Tears of the Kingdom that shakes up the musou formula in some worthwhile ways.

Eric was such a big part of the team and was the face of TheGamer in the US. He worked so hard and cared so much. Please hire him!!

If anyone needs a hand with applying to PR roles, please let me know. I’d be more than glad to help. Sending so much love to anyone who’s been let go ♥️

Unfortunately, my time as an Editor for TheGamer.com has come to an end. I met some of the best coworkers I've ever had there, I learned and grew a lot. If anyone is looking for a journo, especially for guides, reviews, VR, horror, and farming RPGs, I'd love to hear from you.
