Arriving later on in the Super NES's lifecycle in 1996, Super Mario RPG from Nintendo and Square found huge success - and while it went on to inspire games such as Paper Mario, this unique Mario role-playing experience remained sequestered away on Nintendo's 16-bit hardware - until now. Super Mario RPG returns on Nintendo Switch courtesy of developer ArtePiazza and its partners. This is a complete rebuilding of the original game boasting fully 3D graphics, a freshly arranged soundtrack and plenty of enhancements designed to introduce Mario's role playing adventure to a new audience.

Inside The Chinese Room, as it enters a fresh era.
Like the crew of Still Wakes The Deep's mysterious oil rig, the creators of next year's promising British horror game feel like they've been a little off the radar.

Digital Foundry | Starfield's new PC patch delivers the game we should have had at launch
The beta delivers DLSS, frame-gen and massive CPU/GPU performance boosts.
I think it's fair to say that Starfield launched in a poor state on PC in September, with no official DLSS or XeSS upscaling support, no HDR controls, an underwhelming graphics menu and weirdly poor performance - especially on Nvidia and Intel graphics cards.
