You. You there! Be afraid. Be very AFRAID.
]]>Here at VG247 we love video games no matter what platform they're on, but we have to admit that mobile games are a special case all by themselves. While our favorite PC and console games will very often see multi-platform releases, many of the most popular mobile games will be completely unfamiliar to players who don't tend to use their mobile devices for gaming.
]]>There's nothing better than a whole bunch of Xbox Game Pass reveals, and yesterday's Day of the Devs' The Game Awards stream had plenty of 'em.
]]>Two months from today it'll be Christmas Day, which is a terrifying realisation. But merch company iam8bit are hoping they have you covered if there's a big Annapurna fan in your life. They've just announced the Annapurna Interactive Deluxe Limited Edition Collection for the Nintendo Switch, which is such a mouthful that the title alone feels like it justifies a $200 price tag.
]]>Starfield is hitting the spot for a lot of players when it comes to that need for something sci-fi, but it isn't the only game within the genre that joined Game Pass this month that's worth your time. While it first launched on PlayStation back in 2021, Heart Machine's most recent title Solar Ash finally arrived on Xbox and PC last week. Despite how our own Tom Orry felt in his review, I found the game to be quite captivating, from the Jet-Set-Radio-like movement to the Shadow-of-the-Colossus-style boss battles. There was one thing in particular that drew me in most of all though: the vibes.
]]>Annapurna Animation is preparing to adapt BlueTwelve Studio's award-winning cat game Stray into an animated film.
]]>Microsoft has announced the next batch of titles coming to Game Pass in September, and the list contains more than just Starfield.
]]>The best story-based games are ageless. While gameplay can become clunky with the passing of time, an enthralling narrative is just as gripping whether it came out in 2004 or 2024.
]]>Annapurna Interactive and Giant Squid Games have announced a release date for The Pathless on Switch and Xbox consoles.
]]>As mobiles have become more powerful pieces of pocket technology over the past decade or so, we’ve seen an enormous amount of games finds their way onto the smallest screen. Whether it's a mobile-only title, a port or adaptation of a prolific video game series, or - let's face it - a mere cash-grabbing clone, the App Store is packed with great games to play, and home to the best Apple Arcade games too.
]]>Stray is not only critically acclaimed, but it is very popular with players and cat lovers.
]]>It sounds like Konami is dead set on reviving the Silent Hill series, as a recent interview details potential for more games, titles that fell through, and more.
]]>2022 has been a slow year for games, but by no means a bad one. This year, I got to spend plenty of time with games that I’d of never seen myself playing beforehand, and finally held hands with some games I’d been waiting an eternity for. On top of that, it’s been a fantastic year for horror games and reveals, which I’ll always gobble up eagerly.
]]>It turns out there was a bit more to the Silent Hill Townfall teaser trailer than first thought, as fans have uncovered a sneaky secret.
]]>Revealed during Konami’s Silent Hill Transmission today, the first we’ve seen of the series since Silent Hills cancellation aside from a range of rumours and leaks, the Silent Hill series is going to be in receipt of another new game, called Silent Hill: Townfall.
]]>Annapurna Interactive and Mobius Digital have announced that Outer Wilds is now available for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
]]>Stray only released just a few weeks ago, but modders have already had a good go at transforming the indie adventure title. We've seen the likes of CJ (Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas) and America's laziest furball, Garfield, make their way into the game so far, opening up an avenue for modders to do what they do best.
]]>Annapurna Interactive is bringing Giant Squid's mythic adventure game The Pathless to Switch and Xbox consoles this winter.
]]>Annapurna Interactive announced yesterday during its games showcase upgraded versions of both Outer Wilds and What Remains of Edith Finch are coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
]]>Stray is the first game from French developer, BlueTwelve, and ultimately, it’s an incredibly impressive feat from the team. Not only did Stray claw its way to the top of Steam wishlists the day prior to release, but at the time of writing, it currently sits at the top of Steam’s best of 2022, even surpassing God of War.
]]>Stray is a cat simulator intertwined with a cyberpunk adventure, and as a result, the game is strewn with dialogue and signs that are, at first, illegible to most. Fortunately, B-12 is the perfect translator, however, Josh Wirtanen of Half-Glass Gaming spent some time decoding the language for all to understand.
]]>Stray is the charming catventure from BlueTwelve Studios, and the adventurous indie has taken Steam by storm, to say the least. Not only did it top Steam's most-wishlisted the night before its release, but it's now technically become the best game on Steam in 2022, according to user reviews.
]]>Over a week ago, if you'd of mentioned ginger cats to me, my first thought would've been Garfield. Now, however, my first thought is of a very different, unnamed ginger kitty from Stray, but that doesn't mean Garfield doesn't still hold a special place in my heart.
]]>Control Room is the twelfth and final chapter of Stray. So, if you've made it this far, then well done. This short but sweet chapter brings the entire story of Stray to a close, and my only advice (aside from this guide itself) is to cherish it!
]]>Stray has only been available for three days, and has already seen its fair share of players on Steam.
]]>Amidst collecting all of B-12's memories and Morusque's Sheet Music, our furry protagonist in Stray is privy to some Badges too. These collectibles are basically badges of honour for our feline's efforts, and finding them all is certainly a fun little side quest to embark on.
]]>If you've finally made your way through the complex sewer system in Stray, and met all the inhabitants of Antvillage, you'll have found yourself in vibrant Midtown. Midtown is just as colourful as it's counterparts, but the atmosphere here is a little different. Police are rampant, and the nearby factory is being strictly policed by Sentinel drones.
]]>In Stray, the four notebooks in question are those belonging to a quad of robots known as the Outsiders. These robots have made it their lifes mission to try and reach the outside again, albeit with little luck. Although, this is where you - a four legged feline - steps in to help.
]]>Stray is full of platforms to ascend and cat-sized puzzles to solve, and while it all becomes natural to you in time, life as a cat can be a little confusing initially. That said, there's an appealing looking digital safe sealed with a mysterious password hiding away in one of The Slums many alleys, and the safe code to crack it is concealed in a note full of binary code.
]]>Stray showcases just how nimble and clever cats are, but even cats get a little confused sometimes. Unless you encounter it by accident, tracking down Super Spirit Laundry Detergent can be a little troubling.
]]>Stray is an illusive catventure with a story that nobody really knew much about until recently, and what a wonderful story it is. That being said, there’s a lot of exploring to do as a cat if you want to acquire every collectible possible.
]]>Stray is the purrfect playground that we've all been waiting to get our paws on. Now, the time is finally here for your catventure, and it's understandable if you don't want to miss a single thing out. That being said, you'll want to locate every Vending Machine across The Slums if you wish to be privy to all of Azuz's wares.
]]>Stray isn't exactly a tiring game, but sometimes, you may just want to sit back and take in the detailed landscape on offer. There are plenty of moments to do this and places to catnap, but among my favourite has to be hanging out beside the musician, Morusque.
]]>As you jump into Stray, a neon-soaked landscape that's miles away from sunlight awaits you, but you'll have to navigate your way around Dead City and The Flat first. While most of this is straight-forward, the cat-sized task at hand may be a little tricky without the help of B-12.
]]>I load up Stray, and I’m instantly greeted by our small, ginger Outsider. To progress, I must interact with my fellow feline friends, giving them a groom or play fighting with them, before we all curl up together for a catnap. It becomes apparent, very quickly, that these felines are my family.
]]>With the release of Stray being incredibly close, a dozen devoted developers of fellow cat games have come together to showcase their love and support of the upcoming catventure.
]]>Let's hope that when July 19 rolls around, you feel like kitten around, because Stray is going to have you channeling your inner cat if you want to achieve all trophies.
]]>The business of video games changes so much that it can sometimes be hard to keep up with. Game publishing, in particular, has seen so many new and evolving models in just the last five years. But one in particular is unique in the opportunities it offers developers, and in the way it's set up.
]]>Although Neon White was first announced during a Nintendo Direct in February of last year, the title was finally given a release date of June 16 at the Summer Game Fest. That's super soon.
]]>From the outside, Stray is an adventure game made for lovers of cats and science fiction. However, at its core, Stray is something much more than that; it's a testament to curiosity and exploration, and really hones in on how cats can seemingly make any place a home.
]]>It looks like the release date for Stray may have been leaked.
]]>Stray, the third-person cat adventure game announced back in 2020, will be released this summer, according to Sony.
]]>Because Microsoft clearly didn't think that its Xbox Game Pass offering was decent enough already, the company has just added a surprise three more games to the service in the form of the gorgeous, hand-drawn puzzles of Gorogoa, the shipwrecked action-adventure of Olija and the 2.5D side-scrolling puzzle-platforming of The Pedestrian.
