Feature | Solar Ash is eye-catching but seems to lack some of the poignancy Hyper Light Drifter had
Sun thing to think about.
The description creator Alx Preston uses when referring to his new game Solar Ash is "Mario Galaxy meets Shadow of the Colossus, and then sprinkle in a bit of Jet Set Radio". He calls that "the dumb pitch", but it's really handy way of quickly creating an image of what this game - his next after Hyper Light Drifter - is like.

Feature | Someone should make a game about: Britain's folklore monsters
Incandescent with a chance of showers.
In the 1980s, prolific children's author Peter Eldin published a collection of books in the Amazing...series. Most memorable of all was Amazing Ghosts and Ghouls, a sort of child's primer to Britain's hauntings and monsters, masterfully delivered as fact rather than folklore. Suffice to say the Beast of Bodmin Moor - and his many friends - scared me half to death as a child, and were as real to me as dinner. Such is the stuff of truly great children's books.

Digital Foundry | Deathloop PS5's graphics modes compared: which is the best way to play?
The breakdown on all three options - and what ray tracing brings to the party.
Arkane is back - and it's no secret that Digital Foundry enormously admires the kind of immersive sim experience this studio specialises in, offering players an objective-driven but free-form type of gameplay with lots of secrets to uncover and varying pathways through every stage. The 'deathloop' mechanic itself sees the player 'rewinding' to an earlier time in the mission each time you die, and after two 'rewinds', the level restarts with the default player loadout. It's fun, it's fast-paced, it's thought-provoking, encourages experimentation and discovery and the overall narrative is excellent too. It's a game we've come to love during the review period and it's well worth a look.
