Into the Unwell is a cooperative hack n' slash roguelite where your characters – cartoonish yet barely upright lost souls, one and all – draw fighting prowess from their vices. My vice, it turns out, is booting sentient pizza slices off cliff edges. It certainly makes me feel better.
If you've tried to pay for something on Steam via PayPal over the past month and a bit, only to be told you can't, Valve have now offered an explanation as to why, pointing to a bank that previously handled PayPal transactions in certain currencies as having suddenly terminated its support.
Folks in affected countries first noticed notifications informing them PayPal was "currently unavailable" in their part of the world around a month ago. There's been a steady stream of Reddit posts from folks who've gotten to checkout and been told this since then.
Subnautica 2 publishers Krafton have issued their response to the lawsuit filed against them by the game's former lead developers. If you're wondering whether things have cooled off a bit between the two parties now we're in Saul Goodmanville, think again, because the second paragraph of the response sees Krafton accuse the leads of having "resorted to litigation to demand a payday they haven't earned."
It's an almost impossible task at this point to sum up the Subnautica 2 saga in less than a War and Peace length novel, but here's my attempt to give you the abbreviated version. Krafton delay the game from a 2025 early access release to 2026 and fire three leads on it: Charlie Cleveland, Max McGuire, and Ted Gill. The company accuse those leads of abandoning their duties and argue the game wasn't ready for early access. The leads disagree and file a lawsuit. A big part of what makes the disagreement so noteworthy is a $250 million bonus to be paid to Unknown Worlds staff if the game hit certain targets by the end of 2025, which Krafton have now said they'll still pay out a fraction of. Annnnddd breathe.
We’ve covered a few keyboards recently, and while those are great for work and play, the Logitech G Pro X 60 is all about maximising your efforts in whichever competitive title you’re playing.
While admitting that FBC: Firebreak's launch on Steam "underperformed", developers Remedy have re-iterated their commitment to the co-op shooter in their latest financial report, saying that it remains "a solid game to build on" and confirming that a previously announced major update will arrive in late September.
The report also gives quick mini-updates on the development of Control 2 and the combined Max Payne 1 & 2 remake, both of which remain on course.
We’re always on the lookout for the best gaming mice, but it’d be fair to say the name conventions are a bit of a mess. The Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 is a great example of this: Fantastic mouse, terrible name.
It’d be fair to say that PC gaming isn’t quite as accessible as console gaming for newcomers. Right off the bat, it’s obvious that a Nintendo Switch 2 is an upgrade over a Nintendo Switch 1, but while you, the discerning RPS reader, will have some understanding of processors, RAM, and those all-important GPUs, it’s not always easy for someone to jump in (short of grabbing a Steam Deck).
