Apple Might Launch Its Own Smart Home Camera As It Focuses On Providing A More Integrated Product Experience For Its Users

Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Frostpunk 2 Review – The Day After Tomorrow

Frostpunk 2 offers an excellent and organic step up from the original, naturally spreading and evolving in every way, and offering yet another engaging survivalist city-builder in the frozen wasteland.

Frostpunk 2 Story Mode Hands-On – The City Will Fall

While in Warsaw with 11 bit studios, I got hands-on with The Alters and a Q&A session. I also had a Q&A session on Frostpunk 2 and hands-on with the new story mode. Having only recently had a hands-on with the utopia builder mode of Frostpunk 2, I was keen to see where the story here would jump off from the original. As I said in my earlier preview, you can look at the original as a launchpad for the sequel, as should be the case. As indicated in the Q&A, the one thing 11 bit studios didn't want was […]

The Alters Q&A – Creating a Game About the Roads Not Taken

Polish developer 11 bit studios is mostly known to gamers for This War of Mine and Frostpunk, but with The Alters, they are doing something very different. It's a sci-fi survival game where you play as miner Jan Dolski, who is stranded on an alien planet and must find a way to repair his mobile base and get the hell out of the planet before the local sun's lethal radiation kills him. This is not a one-person job, to say the least. Thankfully, Jan has technology at his disposal that allows him to create the titular Alters, alternate copies of […]

The Alters Hands-On Preview – “What If?”

The Alters is a video game developed and published by 11 bit studios. A large part of this team also created the outstanding This War of Mine. That is the extent of what I knew about The Alters, going into my time recently spent in Warsaw with the studio, and it was honestly all I needed to know. From the Anomaly games to This War of Mine and Frostpunk, 11 Bit Studios is a developer I trust (also as a publisher, following titles like Moonlighter, Children of Morta and The Invincible), so my recent hands-on time with The Alters and […]

Hands on with Frostpunk 2 – Deciding to Survive

11 Bit Studios has become reliable since initially jumping onto the scene with Anomaly: Warzone Earth. The outstanding This War of Mine gave them that broader appeal, followed four years later by Frostpunk. The excellent reception of Frostpunk, critically and commercially, with over three million copies sold, meant a sequel was inevitable. This brings us to Frostpunk 2, which will be released later this year and is currently in an open beta. It felt compact in the original game, as excellent as a city-builder and decision-maker it was. That made sense; you were creating an ever-expanding circle around the generator, […]

Frostpunk 2 Launches on July 25 for PC, Will Be on Game Pass on Day One

11 bit Studios brought a release date reveal trailer for Frostpunk 2 at the Xbox Partner Showcase. The sequel to the popular city building survival game released in 2018 will be available starting on July 25 for PC (where the game will support AMD FSR 3) via all main stores, including Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG. Additionally, it will be added to Microsoft's Game Pass subscription service from day one. Pre-orders are open now. Customers can choose between the base edition and a Digital Deluxe edition that provides access to a beta test coming in April, among other things: […]

The Invincible Review – Exploring the Unknown

What makes us ourselves? What awaits us in the vast confines of space? Are the hidden mysteries meant for us to be found? These questions are all tackled by the game The Invincible (not to be mistaken with the series of the same name). This game, based on a popular Polish sci-fi novel written by Stanisław Lem, puts us in the role of a space traveler who discovers a secret that probably shouldn't have been discovered to begin with. The game is essentially a walking simulator. As such, you are going to have to keep that in mind when unpacking […]
