The action-adventure genre is one of the most varied in the industry: it covers a huge range of subgenres, from GTA-style games and open-world titles to metroidvanias and cinematic blockbusters. What unites all action-adventure games is a focus on dynamic combat, world exploration, overcoming obstacles, puzzle-solving, stealth, and strong narrative. This list includes games for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch / Switch 2.

The BAFTA Game Awards is one of the most prestigious events in the industry. Since 2004, it has annually celebrated outstanding achievements in video game development. The event brings together leading specialists, publishers, programmers, artists, and screenwriters from around the world. Winning or even being nominated for one of the BAFTA awards is considered recognition of the highest quality of work.

The 22nd edition of the awards took place on April 17, 2026. At the event, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts recognized the most significant projects released between November 16, 2024, and November 14, 2025. You can learn about all the highlights of the event in our article.

State of Play is a Sony conference held several times a year. It showcases projects from both the Japanese company's internal studios and third-party developers. These include PlayStation 5 games, multiplatform games, and PC ports. In this article, we've compiled the highlights from the event, which took place on the night of February 13, 2026.

Every year, thousands of video games across a wide range of genres hit the shelves of both digital and brick-and-mortar stores. Of course, not every one of them is worthy of your attention. In this article, we've compiled three dozen of the most interesting projects released in 2025. If you missed them at launch, now's the time to catch up.

The past year, 2025, was rich in visually stunning games, but some of them proved to be truly impressive. It’s important to understand that this is not just about polygon counts. Most more or less well-known projects handle that just fine. Here, we are talking about graphics as an artistic language that complements gameplay. Modern technologies have reached a level where it can sometimes be difficult to distinguish a real photograph from the natural beauty of a fictional world. But when that beauty provides an additional layer of sensations and impressions, real magic happens. We decided to recall ten of the most visually memorable projects of 2025 that impressed us more than the rest.

The name "Kojima" has long become somewhat of a trademark, at which mention all the "professional game journalists" immediately don their monocles and compete over realizing the genius’s great idea. However, we will voice an unpopular opinion — for the second game in a row, the game designer’s work resembles a scene from Intouchables, where Driss enters the art gallery and can’t understand how the smudge on a white canvas can be called art. Without further preamble, we present our review of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach — the magnum opus of Hideo Kojima’s (Hideo Kojima) screenwriter and design talent pinnacle.

The first Death Stranding was met with, to put it mildly, mixed reactions. It was an auteur and highly divisive game where 90% of the time was spent walking from point A to point B — essentially doing the dullest part of any gameplay formula. On top of that, the project featured an incredibly convoluted, unconventional storyline, which helped many YouTubers make a fortune dissecting it. However, over time, the idea that "Kojima is a genius" convinced people either that they were too dim to comprehend the designer’s vast vision — or, if they happened to enjoy it, that they were true connoisseurs of high art. This led to Death Stranding 2: On the Beach being awaited like a revelation, a surefire hit, and game of the year contender. The release was marked by a wave of glowing reviews, which reportedly surprised even Kojima himself. We couldn’t stay away and dove into the experience. It’s still too early for a full review, but after completing 20 story missions and a good number of side quests, we’re ready to share our first impressions.

Summer Game Fest is the main gaming exhibition of the summer. The event is sometimes called an alternative to E3, because it is from there that we expect the loudest announcements. You will learn about all the most interesting things that were shown on the night of June 6-7, 2025, from our article.

With less than two months left before the release of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Kojima Productions has announced that the game has gone gold. Just before this announcement, a flood of new information about the project surfaced online, including fresh gameplay snippets. We’ve analyzed all the details and are ready to share what the sequel to one of the most unusual AAA games of recent years has to offer.

Last night, pre-orders for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach went live. To mark the occasion, Sony and Kojima Productions released a new ten-minute trailer, traditionally edited by Hideo Kojima himself. Even if you're a fan of the first game and are familiar with its complex story, this info-packed trailer will still leave you with plenty of questions — answers to which will hopefully come only after the sequel’s release. But we’ll still try to piece together what the industry’s leading visionary has shown us.

In this article, we have compiled a list of the most anticipated games on PS4 and PS5. First, we will talk about exclusive projects from Sony, and then smoothly transition to multiplatform.

Some are continuations of familiar and beloved universes, while others are something entirely new but no less interesting. We've compiled a list of the most anticipated games of the new year 2024 for PS4 and PS5, so you won't have to wonder what to play.
