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 […]

While Microsoft has made strides with Game Pass PC and Microsoft Store versions of PC games, there's still a lot to do in this area, as testified by the recent release of Still Wakes the Deep. The Chinese Room's first-person survival horror adventure game is only the latest game to launch on Game Pass PC with several missing features, including NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR, both of which are available on Steam and Epic Games Store. The same happened with Neon Giant's The Ascent in 2021 (that game also lacked ray tracing) and Gunfire's Remnant II in 2023. Interestingly, The […]
NVIDIA DLSS 3 (Super Resolution and Frame Generation) technology is confirmed to be featured in The Chinese Room's first-person horror game, Still Wakes the Deep. Out today on all platforms for an introductory price of $31.49, the game didn't capture the imagination of Wccftech reviewer Nathan Birch, who rated it just 6 out of 10. While Still Wakes the Deep offers up its fair share of thrills, railroad-style level design, a short runtime, and a surprisingly superficial story result in an experience that may entertain in the moment, but will likely be forgotten rather quickly. Still Wakes the Deep may […]
As I peer out from a ventilation shaft to catch sight of the unspeakable horror in search of me, I prepare to toss a wrench I lifted from the ground in the desperate hope of distracting it. I step out of the shaft, throw it, and then immediately dart f...
A key ingredient to a successful horror story is a good setting and Still Wakes the Deep, which takes place on a massive deep sea oil rig off the coast of Scotland, has a pretty killer one. The game also has a critically acclaimed, if somewhat divisive, creative team behind it in The Chinese Room, the British developer behind past indie hits such as Dear Esther and Everybody's Gone to the Rapture. In other words, Still Wakes the Deep would seem to have quite a bit going for it at first glance. So, does the game successfully tap into its […]

Keeping track of all the latest video games coming out is an increasingly complex task, what with multiple PC storefronts, Xbox One, PS4, Switch, mobile, and more to keep track of, but don’t worry, I’m here to help. Every month I'll be running down the games you need to be keeping an eye on, from the big triple-A headliners, to the intriguing indies you might overlook. June is sure to be a big month for video game news, but it isn’t that big in terms of actual releases. That said, there are still a few promising things coming, including Luigi’s […]
Today, UK developer The Chinese Room (which is also currently busy with Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2) unveiled the PC system requirements for Still Wakes the Deep. The upcoming first-person horror game is powered by Unreal Engine 5, but the minimum and recommended requirements listed on the Steam page don't appear to be too high: MINIMUM: Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system OS: Windows 10 (64-bit required) with DirectX 12 Processor: Quad-core Intel or AMD, 2.5 GHz or faster Memory: 8 GB RAM Graphics: NVIDIA RTX 2050 / AMD RX 6000 / Intel® Arc™ A550 Graphics Card DirectX: Version 12 Storage: 9 GB […]
2023 was a landmark year for horror (check out Wccftech's Best Of here), delivering the super-ambitious Alan Wake 2, a pair of rock-solid remakes in Resident Evil 4 and Dead Space, excellent indies like Amnesia: The Bunker, and more. 2024 may not be quite as strong, but it largely keeps the ball rolling down a similar horrifying path, with a couple of new remakes (The Last of Us Part II Remastered and Silent Hill 2), new entries in fan-favorite series (Alone in the Dark), and some promising indies (Still Wakes the Deep). Those dark days when it looked like survival […]

I started playing Overwatch in 2019. By the time I was pushing payloads and getting Play of the Game with a well-placed Tactical Visor, a lot of the old hero kits and team compositions that were infamous when the hero shooter launched in 2016 were more...
