I’ve been broken for the last ~24 hours but my first big TGS piece has just dropped. I spoke to Resident Evil Requiem director, Nakanishi-san, and producer, Kumazawa-san, about returning to Raccoon City, and what they learnt from 5 & 6, and revisiting Outbreak. www.thegamer.com/resident-evi...

Hades 2 is exceptional. Supergiant has yet again crafted a nuanced narrative journey with so much depth and unpredictability. Everything about it is so touching, driven, and eager to surprise at every turn. 🌓 Bravo, @supergiantgames.bsky.social. www.thegamer.com/hades-2-revi...

No one can make jokes about Sonic not having a solid racing game anymore. Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is up there with the greats. www.thegamer.com/sonic-racing...

Dying Light 2 was one of the first games I properly guided for TheGamer, so it’s very cool to have the chance to review Dying Light: The Beast. It’s not as ambitious as the last game, but that definitely helps it in the long run. My review: www.thegamer.com/dying-light-...

One of my favourite pieces in a while - it was lovely to chat with @playtonicgames.com head and general legend Gavin Price about everything Yooka-Replaylee! www.thegamer.com/yooka-laylee...

Lost one half of the Dream Team from TG today, will miss Joe more than I can put into words - if you need anything MTG, you know where to go

I didn’t really get the original Hollow Knight but Silksong is blowing me away, want this tattooed asap

At Gamescom, I spoke with Yoshi-P once again, and we chatted loads about Patch 7.3 (so be warned, there are spoilers), as well as the decision to include the original Sphene, whether we'll ever get another crafter or gatherer role, and more! www.thegamer.com/final-fantas...

Been really excited to share this one, my first 5/5 review for TheGamer in more than two years goes towards Shinobi: Art of Vengeance! Had an absolute brutal blast 100 percenting it, and it’s my current GOTY for sure. My review: www.thegamer.com/shinobi-art-...

Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound isn’t just a fantastic evolution of the 2D games; it’s become one of my favourite entries in the whole series. My review: www.thegamer.com/ninja-gaiden...

I've been playing a lot of Grounded 2, and it's already very, very good: www.thegamer.com/grounded-2-e...

I didn’t know what to expect going into Cronos: The New Dawn, but a few hours with it made me feel like it could be Bloober's best yet. Check out my preview: www.thegamer.com/cronos-the-n...

apropos of nothing we could all be better to our peers, and it's a good idea to try to make that your first instinct when forming an opinion

Death Stranding 2: On The Beach is a spectacularly bizarre sequel. While its narrative is awkwardly fragmented and its characters aren't as well developed as you'd like, this doesn't take away from the melancholic joy of making deliveries across a broken world. #DeathStranding2

I had the pleasure of interviewing Kazuyuki Yamai about Raidou Remastered and it was so interesting to discuss the setting, why the themes are still relevant now, and inspirations! www.thegamer.com/raidou-remas...

I sat down with a few prominent LGBTQ+ champions from The Elder Scrolls Online, from the march organisers to an ESO Stream Team member and top donor for this year's events, to discuss why Pride matters, especially against the challenges they face this year. www.thegamer.com/it-just-show...

One last rodeo with my main, RIP 🫡

really, really upsetting to see what's been happening at EA over the last several months. it feels like it's every month just about, another thing shut down. www.ign.com/articles/ea-...

I adore Nightreign; it's one of the most exhilarating, challenging Soulslikes, miraculously condensing the Elden Ring experience into 40-minute bursts. It's the boldest thing From has done in over a decade, and the weird meld works far more than it should. www.thegamer.com/elden-ring-n...

Pipitstrello and the Cursed Yoyo wasn't on my radar before, but that made it one of the year's biggest surprises for me so far! www.thegamer.com/pipistrello-...

BTW We we going to launch with a Patreon but it was taken down FIVE MINUTES BEFORE LAUNCH SO THAT'S COMING NEXT WEEK.

Hello! I'm launching a website with @henrystockdale.com and @lexluddy.xyz. Welcome to @rewinder.co.uk – an Independent outlet focused on the games that we care about, no matter the size or scope.

Very happy to share that @rewinder.co.uk, is now live! I've been working with @lexluddy.xyz and @craezytaxi.bsky.social, and I'm serving as its EIC. We're an independent games-focused publication looking at the middle ground, not going exclusively indie but not ruling out AAA either.

Back on my bullshirt and god I’ve missed it

While I was at Eve Fanfest 2025, I also got to check out Eve Frontier and speak to the lovely devs about it. You can read my full article here: www.thegamer.com/feve-frontie...

One of my favourite things about Eve Fanfest was hearing the many stories from so many lovely people. I loved the drama, the heartfelt moments, and I loved being taught the Eve lingo, too. Eve can seem pretty daunting to a newcomer, but it's worth it! www.thegamer.com/eve-online-i...

I had the pleasure of speaking with the lovely Jason Charles Miller about lending his vocals to FFXIV! You can read the interview here: www.thegamer.com/final-fantas...

I have been laid off from TheGamer. Open to any and all work for video production and writing both in the industry and outside it.

Hearing Matthew Lillard call Trump an "egotistical maniac, narcissistic idiot" was so cathartic. www.thegamer.com/matthew-lill...

It's Psychonauts' 20th anniversary. 🧠🧠 🤯 What can you even say! It feels like yesterday butalso one hundred years ago. Double Fine took a big swing on our first game and let's be honest: we kinda nailed it? Thank you all for your love and support over the years. We love that you love Raz so much!

another big update from me! i've been sitting on this for a week, unsure of how to write this up.. but i've gotten the total cost for my top surgery, which is $19.6k. i can't raise this money alone, even with all of the work i do, so i've made a gofundme. gofund.me/954d116c

Very pleased to share this investigation into two Chinese indie games that got unexpectedly delisted from Steam earlier this year. With their studios on the brink of collapse and little communication from Valve, here's an insight into the devs' fight for survival. www.thegamer.com/steam-delist...

As promised, here is my second interview piece with the very lovely Alix Wilton Regan. www.thegamer.com/alix-wilton-...

Absolum wasn’t the only thing that I saw from Dotemu last month, I also had the chance to check out Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, which has quickly become one of my most anticipated of the year. Yes, even over NG4: www.thegamer.com/ninja-gaiden...

As great as Bananza and Mario Kart World were, one of the Switch 2 things I was most interested in was the enhanced port of Breath of the Wild. Here are some brief impressions from playing! www.thegamer.com/the-legend-o...

The four face buttons in Bananza: - Fuck shit up in front of you - Fuck shit up above you - Fuck shit up beneath you - Jump

Had the chance to check out some of the Switch 2’s lineup and will be sharing some thoughts as they go live! First up is my fave, Donkey Kong Bananza, which I’m so happy is a thing before a new 3D Mario www.thegamer.com/donkey-kong-...

Embarrassed to admit that Bleach has always been a big blindspot for me, but Rebirth of Souls showed me what I was missing. It's a bit wonky at times, but its engaging combat and in-depth story make it well worth it, and I hope we get more! www.thegamer.com/bleach-rebir...

Pro made me jump back into Spidey 2’s photo mode and god it’s gorgeous

Bit of a non-work update! ❤️

hello! if you want to help a trans person out, I'm currently raising funds for top surgery. i'll be having the procedure done in august, but am already fundraising since it's a significant amount of money! any shares and donations help! thank you!

Really excited to share my biggest review yet for Assassin’s Creed Shadows! It’s been a long time since Assassin’s Creed has grabbed me but happy to say that Shadows did thanks to its stunning world, great characters, and improved mechanics: www.thegamer.com/assassins-cr...

The talented @gepugg.bsky.social is penning our full review for Assassin’s Creed Shadows so be sure to keep an eye out for it next week. And we’ll have plenty more coming over on @thegamerweb.bsky.social as launch week continues 🥷🥷🥷

Haven't stopped thinking about Absolum since I saw it and now that it's been revealed to the world, I'm happy to share my report on how it came to be, what an original IP means to Dotemu, and much more! Check it out! www.thegamer.com/absolum-dote...

File that under “images that go extremely hard”

Here's my review of #SplitFiction which is an utter delight for the most part, but can't help dragging in places or falling victim to the same heartfelt albeit hokey writing as Hazelight's past games. Some real magic in here, but it's not without fault: www.thegamer.com/split-fictio...

Been so excited to talk about this one - was praying for Dotemu’s next game to be more TMNT, but it’s actually a brand-new IP called Absolum that’s even more exciting. Check out my preview here: www.thegamer.com/absolum-prev...

Animal Well’s collector’s edition finally arrived! Big fan of the stand that reacts to UV light

The discourse around indies and games media falls apart under a second of scrutiny but I will say I'm glad we have the space at TheGamer to spotlight the hidden gems, breakout indies, and complete newcomers we're passionate about.
