Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is shaping up to be one of the most visually exciting games of the year. Ninja Theory's cinematic sequel should be making excellent use of Epic's Unreal Engine 5, producing some truly stunning results.

Microsoft released high quality b-roll meaning that we can finally draw some clearer conclusions on the game's visual make-up. So, how do these early shots pan out? Is this the Unreal Engine showcase we've been waiting for?

My favourite RPGs are the ones that really consider exactly who the character is - or can be - in their world.

Much like there are thought to be just seven main story plots, it might be easy to say there are few video game genres left to be discovered. After forty years of gaming, I know my preferred ones, and they're typically shadowy and unsettling worlds that ooze blood and bullets.

If you’ve ever been into plants, you’ll know, outside their natural habitat, they're inherently a bit of a puzzle.

Get it wrong and you'll end up with a shrivelled botanic tragedy glaring accusingly at you from the windowsill before it wilts its last wilt out of pure spite; do it right and you'll have a beautiful bit of nature in your home to enjoy and admire for years to come.
