They Are Billions is an unputdownable RTS revelation
"Infected horde approaching from the west!"
How long can you survive? It's so simple and so effective: build a base and protect it from the enemy zombie hordes. Not the ones milling about on the map, although they do trickle towards your base and sometimes with proper intent, but the actual hordes.

Digital Foundry | Forza Horizon 3's Xbox One X update is a true showcase for console 4K
But 60fps remains exclusive to PC.
Forza Horizon 3 gets an enhanced Xbox One X patch this week, adding a 4K presentation plus other extras to an already visually arresting title. Developer Playground Games has justifiable confidence in this update - to the point that we were invited to its Leamington Spa office for a rundown of the benefits, and handed footage ahead of time.

In the run-up to Nintendo's announcement last night, a few of us were bandying around ideas about what it could possibly be. An Amiibo-focussed game, Nintendo's own version of Skylanders?

But it hasn't said no.
CD Projekt Red has been at pains to keep the conversation away from Cyberpunk 2077 in recent years.

They've darted between David Braben and his one-time Elite co-pilot Ian Bell, and were once turned on his old publisher, Gametek.
