Digital Foundry | How Knack 2 offers players more on PS4 Pro
Checkerboarding for 4K screens, a high frame-rate mode - and more.
The original Knack was the very first game showcased on the pre-launch PlayStation 4, with game director Mark Cerny also taking point as the lead architect of the console itself. In interviews, Cerny himself described Knack as a smaller-scale project, though many expected it to be a technical showcase for the new hardware. However, the arrival of a sequel represents an interesting opportunity for Cerny and his Studio Japan team: without the pressure of a system launch to deal with, Knack 2 gives the developers the time to show us what kind of game they really want to deliver.

Biomutant will let you choose how much narration you want
Less talking, more shooting.
If you've seen gameplay footage of THQ Nordic's upcoming open-world action-RPG Biomutant you may have found its overzealous narrator a bit annoying. Every time he exclaims "boom!", "neutralised!", or "hack-and-slash!" mid-battle it can instill a sense of weary irritation. As it turns out, developer Experiment 101 understands that this feature isn't to everyone's tastes and it can be drastically minimised.

Feature | Is there a "right" or "wrong" way to play PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds?
A tale of bathroom campers.
A few weeks ago, Shroud - a competitive Counter-Striker-turned-electrifying Playerunknown's Battlegrounds streamer - found himself, as you so often do, between the blue and a hard place. With the deadly boundary of the Battle Royale game's infamous shockfield crawling closer to him, and only 20 players to go, he darted from cover to cover, looking for a respite from its ever-tightening grasp. Soon, he found it: one of the island's cavernous warehouses near the Mylta power plant, though probably bereft of its vital loot, enjoyed the advantage of position dead in the center of the fresh circle.

What's going on with our Destiny 2 review?
Stand by, Guardian.
We at Eurogamer read the comments, and we hear you. You love our wall-to-wall Destiny coverage, and you can't wait for a new onslaught of articles with the arrival of its sequel tomorrow. Well, I'm afraid you're going to have to wait a little longer, as we're all starting our journeys at midnight when servers are pushed live (you might see some coverage of Destiny 2 going live elsewhere right now, but even Activision thinks we should calm it a bit so didn't invite us to its review event or grant us early access beyond the beta).

Feature | Balancing FIFA 18 sounds like a living nightmare
"Sometimes it just takes a few tries."
Pace, Strength, Finesse Shots, Crosses. Those are the four most contentious points of FIFA's balance that I can think of, and they come up, every year, as predictably as Antonio Valencia's balls into the box. (Antonio Valencia's balls into the box are very predictable, if you didn't get that.)

Review | Knack 2 review
Return of the Knack.
When Garibaldi helped unify Italy, the story goes that he had only one request. In return for his hard work, he wanted a year's supply of macaroni. I have never looked into this business too deeply, because I don't want to find out that it isn't true, but still - isn't that kind of a weird thing to ask for? Just macaroni? And just enough for a year?

Feature | Life is Strange: Before the Storm is brilliant and the new developer totally gets it
The Price is right.
I think Arcadia Bay is one of the very few fictional places that I've actually missed. I missed its gauzy, autumnal sunsets, the diner, the lighthouse, even the junkyard, and most of all, the particular nostalgia it all evokes for teenage bedrooms. Those strange, musky sanctums where every dirty dish, stained beer mat and smudged scribble is a badge of honour for a late night of tattered, misspent youth. Junk will never be so important to you again.

Feature | How video games win back time
Against the clock.
Slow motion in art doesn't merely slow the world down, but renders it supernatural. We comprehend objects travelling at a sliver of their usual speed differently, picking up on nuances and leaping to conclusions that might otherwise evade us. "Even if one has a general knowledge of the way people walk, one knows nothing of a person's posture during the fractional second of a stride," notes the philosopher Walter Benjamin, discussing the radical potential of film in the 1930s. "The act of reaching for a lighter or a spoon is familiar routine, yet we hardly know what really goes on between hand and metal, not to mention how this fluctuates with our moods."
