Frogwares revealed its plans for a “full remake and substantial rewrite” of The Awakened back in July, launching a Kickstarter campaign shortly after to secure additional funding to complete the game - a step the Ukranian studio said was necessary due to complications arising from Russia’s ongoing invasion. Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened, in its new guise, will rework the events of the original to serve as a continuation of the studio’s young Sherlock arc, which began in last year’s enjoyable Chapter One....

First up, I wanted to share some impressions about the game overall. The shift to Unreal Engine 4 surprised me, but not as much as the core design itself which sees the surprisingly evocative and detailed world Tango Gameworks has created focused on a concept that is very much Far Cry-like in nature. Yes, there’s a main mission path to follow, but it’s also a game rich in side missions and other explorable elements, backed by an Ubi-style icon-packed map that overwhelms....

The feature will let anyone on PC, Xbox One or Xbox Series X/S play these games’ campaigns co-operatively online together. In patch notes, developer 343 Industries said the cross-play had been tested internally - though the company now needed “additional insight from real players with different networking setups”.

Other changes included in the patch include improvements to ODST Firefight and Floodfight, Custom Game Browser tweaks including a new Quick Match option, fresh skulls for Halo 2, 3 and ODST, new medals in Halo 3, mod tools for ODST, and dozens more general bug fixes....

If you fail to guess once you have heard the complete preview, then you’ll break your streak - which is why discovering today’s Heardle answer is so important for players, especially as some song intros are more elusive than others....

Marvel’s Midnight Suns takes inspiration from the Midnight Sons comic book run of the mid-90s, which told the story of a band of supernatural superheroes as they battled against Lilith, Mother of All Demons. In Firaxis’ game, Lilith has been resurrected by Hydra and will stop at nothing to fulfil a prophecy and bring back her master using the full force of her demonic army. In response to this hellish threat, the Caretaker chooses to reform the Midnight Sons with a few new heroes in tow - including the Avengers, who decide to revive legendary hero The Hunter, the child of Lilith and the only one known to have defeated her before....

The bulk of My Wedding Stories was accurately leaked at the tail-end of last week, but for those of you not perusing Eurogamer late into Friday night, the gist is that it gives players the tools needed to craft a surprisingly comprehensive wedding experience for their Sims - right from the proposal all the way through to vow renewals many years later. Starting at the beginning, and assuming a Sim says ‘yes’, players will have the option to stage a number of pre-wedding festivities, including the Engagement Party to break the big news to friends and family, the Hen Night/Stag Do, and even the Rehearsal Dinner, complete with toasts, speeches, gifts, food, and dancing....

Here, he reunites with Beth (Safe House and Another Eden’s Luci Fish) who, with a CEO job looming, is on a mission to rekindle her sense of adventure by seeking out a local treasure connected to her past....

This nine-episode series has been in the works for ages, but has finally been filmed and… it looks alright, honestly? We don’t see his face (obviously), but that’s American Gods’ Pablo Schreiber as Master Chief and Natascha McElhone as Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsey. Let’s watch: After almost eight years in development, the Halo TV series is finally due to air on Paramount Plus in the US some time in the first quarter of next year....

Today’s final day of operation was announced back in December, when developer Frostburn Studios set out a plan to sunset the game. The ability to purchase Gold Coin currency was disabled last year, while new accounts were disabled on New Year’s Eve. Today marks the official close-down date of Newerth’s main services. “Even though the journey of HoN or Heroes of Newerth has come to an end, we believe that all the valuable memories of our players through all these years will never fade away,” Frostburn wrote at the time....

“I quit after three episodes of season one,” Kojima wrote on Twitter, discussing the series. “I thought I’d watch the rest of the show. Actually, I watched a few episodes that were delivered at the time when I was about to start a project that I had been warming up for a long time and put it on hold because the concept was similar (different settings and tricks).” Kojima went on to state his project would have been a “buddy (male/female) thing with a special detective squad facing off against legendary heroes behind the scenes....

Why can’t you play the rest? Well, unfortunately, an unlock code designed to open up the rest of Free Radical Design’s PS2 classic has been lost to time - via an unfortunate Discord ban.

The developer is the latest incarnation of the Nottingham-based company formerly known as Crytek UK, and before that, Free Radical Design itself....
