Review | Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure review - ingenious challenges with the lightest of touches
ridrunnerG.
One of my favourite things in games is when the world wraps around. It's a simple kind of magic, and it's been there since the bright, fizzing days of the arcades, and yet I never even come close to getting tired of it. You race all the way to the right of the screen, and then - wow! - you're suddenly back at the very left. You run all the way to the top, and with one final push you find yourself back at the bottom.

VR Corner | Wandering around Watch Dogs 2's San Francisco in REAL VR is simply stunning
Plus a look at Blade & Sorcery 1.0 and Captain ToonHead vs the Punks from Outer Space
Hey all, sorry for the lack of VR Corner blogs here on Eurogamer these last few of weeks. It's been rather hectic in video land recently and I also had a few days off here and there (selfish, I know) which made it hard to find time to put together site posts. I haven't been so slack over on the YouTube channel though, so here's a little rundown of the previous three weeks worth of VR coverage.

Review | Homeworld 3 review - satisfying strategy and impeccable space vibes, with caveats
Hyperspace (largely) successful.
Homeworld 3 developers Blackbird Interactive proved both their design chops and their love of the Homeworld franchise by creating Deserts of Kharak in 2016, a game that started out as a cheeky unauthorised take on the Homeworld space strategy formula on dry land and ended up a critically-acclaimed official part of the series with the blessing of new brand IP owner Gearbox. Eight years later, with the even more successful Hardspace: Shipbreaker in the books and a successful crowd-funding campaign, the third mainline Homeworld 3 game is finally here.

Digital Foundry | Luigi's Mansion 3 is Digital Foundry's pick as Switch's most technically impressive game
A generational retrospective kicks off with a focus on Nintendo first party games.
According to Video Games Chronicle, the Nintendo Switch is the most long-lived of any of the firm's home consoles - judged by the time taken before a replacement hit the shelves. The Nintendo Entertainment System aka Famicom previously held the record at 2,686 days and with Switch 2 still to arrive, the current-gen hybrid continues to power on. Nevertheless, we believe that a reveal for the new machine is mere weeks or at most, a couple of months away and we're starting to look back at the legacy of Nintendo's mighty handheld. In the first of a series of pieces, we're taking stock with our picks for the most technologically impressive Switch titles, beginning with our choices from the first party catalogue.

And it's out this "winter".
Warframe's been fully embracing its weird side over the course of its last couple of expansions, but if you thought its mood-world westerns and long-lost dimension-shifting labs were as far as the free-to-play shooter was willing to go, then you might want to brace yourself: developer Digital Extremes has revealed first gameplay of its upcoming 1999 story expansion and, well, let's just say you get to go into space to kill a 90s boyband.

Digital Foundry | Forza Motorsport PC modded: extra detail and improved ray tracing are there for the taking
Plus: a look at performance optimisation since launch.
There was some level of disappointment when the long-awaited Forza Motorsport finally arrived for review, as visual quality didn't quite meet expectations - especially as promised features like ray traced global illumination didn't arrive in the final game, while PC technical performance was troublesome. However, a short while ago, we learned from user LJT that the PC game can be modded to add extra detail, improved RT reflections and RTGI, while reports of improved performance since launch warranted some investigation. So, how does the mod improve visual fidelity and what are the performance implications? Have CPU and GPU optimisations delivered performance boosts over the launch game? We decided to find out.

Feature | For a belated celebration of Tetris' 40th birthday, here's a highly partisan look back at Tetris DS
When Mario picked up a tetromino.
If ever a game muddled with time, it's Tetris. I'm not just talking about the idle hours that somehow disappear as you play, but the way that the whole game sits within the flow of time itself. Tetris' 40th anniversary is upon us this summer (the exact date is a little woolly, with the Tetris Company putting it in June, but still announcing official celebrations this weekend), and that feels weird from both temporal directions. In one way, the game feels so fresh, so cleanly designed, it can surely only be a few weeks old at most? In the other way, hasn't a design this beautiful been with us since the first galaxies were forming? Wasn't it there in the code of the universe waiting to be unearthed? It's all very weird.

Digital Foundry | Ace Combat 7 is one of the most impressive Switch ports we've tested
An excellent, intelligently handled conversion of a genuinely superb game.
Arcade-style aerial combat games have been thin on the ground in recent years, with the notable exception of Bandai Namco's Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown. This 2019 high-altitude genre revival gave us a high-quality jet combat game, built for modern visual expectations with the help of Unreal Engine 4.
