coming to Steam in Q2 2023. The Steam page is quick to note, for probably legal reasons, that “this app does not come with games” and “you must own an original copy of any game” you want to emulate. Dolphin allows you to emulate retro games with 4k support, modern controllers, and it’s totally free.MultiVersus “Open Beta” shutting down in June, relaunching in 2024
MultiVersus is disabling online services on June 25th until the game’s full launch in early 2024, developer Play First Games have announced. Two seasons deep, the studio say they’re taking MultiVersus offline because it’s been in Open Beta this whole time (I know, shocker), so an extended break will give them time to prepare for their proper launch.Tomorrow, And Tomorrow, And Tomorrow’s publisher still won’t credit Brenda Romero
Brenda Romero called out Tomorrow, And Tomorrow, And Tomorrow – a bestselling novel about three aspiring game devs – for leaving her out of the acknowledgements page. Romero’s acclaimed board game Train inspired the in-book video game Solution, by the author Gabrielle Zevin’s own admission, which resulted in Romero speaking out. The book’s publisher Knobf Doubleday have now issued a statement refusing to credit Romero since “the only games listed in the author’s acknowledgements are video games.”Amazon Spring Sale 2023: all the best PC gaming deals
Amazon Spring Sale deals on PC gaming hardware. This doesn’t look to be as much of a wide-ranging sale as Prime Day or Amazon’s Black Friday dealings, but there are still some decent savings to be had on plenty of RPS-approved gear, from gaming mice and keyboards to SSDs and gaming monitors.This 18TB (!) Seagate Exos HDD is down to £245 thanks to an Ebay code
Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller in blue using a 20% off Ebay code, and now it’s time to check out another deal using the very same discount method. This time it’s a massive 18TB HDD from Seagate, an Exos enterprise-grade drive, which is available for £245 when you use the CATCH20 code at CCL’s Ebay shop front.A decade later, the Lutece Twins are still the best thing in BioShock Infinite
 in a student-y house far away (assuming that you don’t live too near to Nottingham), I started playing the BioShock series. I’d flirted with the idea for years, but it was the release of <a href=)
BioShock Infinite that finally convinced me to take the plunge. And I can’t exactly complain: the series’ Rapture arc — made up of the first and second games, plus the prequel novel by none other than John “The Crow” Shirley — now makes up maybe 10% of my personality, having given me two of my favourite video games, my favourite video game tie-in book, and a front-running contender for my favourite video game locale all at once.I just wish that, after all that prep I did for it, I’d actually liked BioShock Infinite a bit more.
Open world murder mystery Shadows Of Doubt enters early access this April
Shadows Of Doubt for a few years now, mainly peeking at it through Screenshot Saturday posts, which makes sense considering the game’s beautiful, neon-soaked voxel art. Happily, the open world detective sim is now sneaking into an early access release next month, on April 24th.Slay The Spire Downfall mod developers are making their own tabletop fantasy roguelike
Slay The Spire has remained an incredibly popular deckbuilding roguelike, so it naturally invited a healthy modding community that added fun stuff to the game – goofy googley eyes included. One of Slay The Spire’s most popular mods was called Downfall, a huge fan-made expansion that added tons of playable characters, a new mode, and more. Those developers – Table 9 Studio – are now back with their own not-modded game: an auto-battling, fantasy Chess roguelike called Tales & Tactics.Paradox’s rival to The Sims urges players to take minimum PC requirements “seriously”
The Sims 4 and your ears pricked up during this month’s reveal of Paradox Interactive’s upcoming life sim Life By You, you might want to check your PC’s specifications before it enters early access later this year. During a chat with Paradox Tectonic’s general manager Rod Humble at this year’s GDC, I spoke to him about whether there was any plan to accommodate lower-end PC specifications when Life By You enters early access this September, and he answered by urging players to take its minimum PC specifications “seriously”.
