I know I talk a lot about indies as of late, but there are few games with as impeccable fall vibes as A Short Hike. It’s very cozy and not particularly long, but it’s a very soothing sort of play session. I really recommend it.

I feel like I've been reverted back to the 90s with how hard I'm feeling the TGIF of it all this week.

If a poem is quoted in a video game, it’s on topic, right? Subnautica: Below Zero wasn’t as in-depth or as completely nerveshattering as the original, but it did have some bright points, including the narrative. In terms of immersion (pun not intended) I really liked how the original’s story was told, but the story itself (and the subtext on the human condition and what makes us human) in BZ hit for me — though of course I appreciate the overarching subtext through the franchise that big corporations are the true predator we should be afraid of.

The next Hearthstone expansion, The Great Dark Beyond, is releasing on November 5, 2024.

Don’t.

Don’t.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us the questions, and nothing is different from any other day so of course we’ll provide the answers.

One of the core changes pitched to differentiate the original Overwatch from the cooler, hipper Overwatch 2 which actually made it to the game was the swap from a six player team to a five player team, but community outcry has caused the development team to re-evaluate that change, starting with a trial run of 6v6 in Season 14.

Between the WoW Anniversary and Halloween, we're still in celebration mode.

Halloween is my favorite time of the year, and luckily, Blizzard has chosen to celebrate in most of their games as well this year.
