Interview | Game Freak's Junichi Masuda and Shigeru Ohmori talk inspiration, Sirfetch'd, and pressure from Pokémon fans
"When you look at leeks in the UK, they're pretty big vegetables."
There have been a few ups and downs for Game Freak, in the build up to Pokémon Sword and Shield's launch.

Digital Foundry | Dragon Quest 11 on Switch: a beautifully executed, smart conversion
The port is exceptional - and there are brand new features too.
It's been an absolute joy to check out Square-Enix's Switch port of Dragon Quest 11, a game highlighted by our audience as a title we really needed to take a look at in the wake of its September release.

Review | MediEvil review - polished remake fails to de-clunk the PS1 original
MediOcre.
While never one of Sony's most popular mascots, I spent many an hour with Sir Daniel Fortesque the first time around. Drawn to him the way I'm inevitably drawn to the happy-go-lucky losers - you know the ones - I fell fully and completely for 1998's MediEvil. Stuffed with charm and colour and soft, gentle humour, its hack-and-slash gameplay easy to play but tricky to master. Though not particularly cerebral it was somehow both accessible and rewarding, with Fortesque himself - a hapless but memorable hero with a mile-wide cowardly streak and misplaced jawbone - leading the charm offensive.

Recommended | Outer Wilds review - an irresistible miniature solar system for the laidback explorer
Apollone ranger.
The world's oldest still-operational planetarium was created to disprove the end of the world. In May 1774, the Frisian clergyman Eelco Alta published a book on an impending planetary alignment, declaring this "a preparation or a commencement of the demolishing or destruction" of the universe.
