Arcades, despite reports to the contrary, can still be sticky-floored palaces of splendour, where bright blazing machines happily gobble up your loose coins in exchange for experiences you'd never be able to get at home. They still exude a certain magic, though perhaps not at 10am on a wet Wednesday morning, which is when I find myself traipsing along London's Embankment to Namco's Funscape park.

Lords of the Fallen's Enter the Ancient Labyrinth DLC is due next week.

Conventional logic dictates that when one creates a product, they should make it available to the widest market possible. How else can one explain the popularity of mobile games being produced in the modern era? Yet Killer Queen developers Nikita Mikros and Joshua DeBonis have gone the opposite route by creating an arcade cabinet-exclusive that very few have the opportunity to play.

EA Access members will get to play 10 hours of Battlefield Hardline starting 12th March.

It's getting hard to keep track of all the Warhammer 40K video games doing the rounds. Games Workshop's violent sci-fi universe has seen everything from a Plants vs. Zombies style game to a Battle Chess-inspired one. Now, the perhaps inevitable Warhammer 40K MOBA has been revealed.

Limbo, the moody, monochromatic game that kicks off Xbox Live Arcade's Summer of Arcade this Wednesday, looks gorgeous. Any screenshot will tell you that, and playing the game drives it home. The developers, Playdead, execute their aesthetic - like a gloomy Eastern European animated short seen through misted glass - with beauty and consistency. The game's real success, however, is in refusing to be satisfied with looks alone.

UPDATE 25/2/15 4.20pm: Without fanfare, Limbo has quietly launched today on PlayStation 4. You can buy it now via the PlayStation Store for £7.39.

The jump in Scram Kitty, a former Wii U exclusive that's now on its way to PS4 and Vita, was always a bit harder to read: a strange arc subject to the momentum you'd built up riding rails, and subject to the gravity of levels that would loop across the screen.

As far as outlandish video game special editions go, it's one of the most expensive we've seen.

Rocksteady's Batman games are known for leaning heavily on the Caped Crusader's Rogues Gallery of super-villains, and it looks like Arkham Knight will be no different.

Dragon Quest Heroes launches in Europe later in 2015 exclusively for PlayStation 4, Square Enix has announced.

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 is one of the stranger releases we've covered in some time - an episodic, multi-platform sequel to a 3DS spinoff in the long running Resident Evil franchise. With a smaller budget and a lower price, Capcom is gambling with one of their most popular series by tackling a smaller scale release than the typical high-budget Resident Evil production. As a series typically known for its cutting-edge visuals, can this new take on the series leave its mark?

EA Access subscribers can now download NBA Live 15 for free.

HD remakes - even sumptuous all-new-asset reimaginings like Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty! - are often doomed to a rather melancholic fate. For all the care and attention, there can be something perversely cruel about them.
