A Marvel Rivals player ‘hit GrandMaster doing 0 damage’ through the blindingly simple strategy of healing teammates a lot

(Image credit: NetEase) We’re not even halfway through Marvel Rivals Season 1, and one player has already done a GM no-damage challenge. This player, in particular, decided to one-trick the Strategist Rocket Raccoon, and despite getting no damage or kills, has done a terrifying amount of healing. “I hit GrandMaster doing zero damage,” Marvel Rivals

Elon Musk admits account-boosting on PoE2 and Diablo 4 but says deal with it: ‘What would I be apologizing for?’

Billionaire troll and part-time gamer Elon Musk raised more than a few eyebrows earlier this month when he streamed playing a high-level Path of Exile 2 character but, to the considerable mirth of viewers, didn’t seem to have an understanding of the basic game mechanics. Alas Musk’s hardcore character, Percy_Verence, would soon enough kick the

The cake was a lie, but Silksong ‘is real, progressing and will release’ say devs, after flurry of conspiracy theories revealed to be a ‘nothingburger’

(Image credit: Team Cherry) Alright, Silksong gang, pack up the cork boards and sorrowfully spool away your red string—turns out we were being had. Or maybe just drunk on pattern recognition. Most definitely the latter. In case you’ve been out of the loop (honestly, you’re better off), the Silksong community had a conniption last week

The Blood of Dawnwalker’s creative director explains how the RPG’s narrative sandbox works: ‘the core of it is maximising players’ freedom’

(Image credit: Rebel Wolves) I traveled to Rebel Wolves recently to speak to key developers about its debut RPG, The Blood of Dawnwalker, which promises a dark fantasy cinematic adventure involving vampires deep within the Carpathian Mountains. As well as speaking to the game’s director, Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, the man who directed the now legendary fantasy

EA announces the guillotine will finally fall on Origin this April thanks to Microsoft’s abandonment of 32-bit Windows and, if you don’t like it, ‘use a newer computer’

A new post from Electronic Arts (EA) with the inauspicious title “Update your operating system for the EA App” tolls the final bell on the ill-fated Origin platform, and may be very bad news for a small subset of gamers. It’s been a bit of a road to get here, but you’ll see why in

Marvel Snap is back online after falling afoul of TikTok’s temporary ban, and unsurprisingly, its creators are on the search for a new publisher

When TikTok was temporarily blocked in the US at the weekend, one of the unexpected knock-on effects was the simultaneous blocking of Marvel Snap, a CCG starring the usual gaggle of buoyant American superheroes. TikTok access was reinstated after 12 hours, but the game remained offline for another 12 hours. Now it’s back (on PC

‘Who planned this garbage?’ Streamers unite in slamming the official Twitch Marvel Rivals tournament for last-minute rule changes and unbalanced chaos

(Image credit: NetEase) Over the weekend, Marvel Rivals put on one of the first tournaments that the new hero shooter has seen in conjunction with Twitch, and while it was certainly set out to be a big success, some of the streamers involved had some not-so-nice things to say about it. YouTuber Rachel “Valkyrae” Hofstetter

The Witcher 3’s director says he has designed his new vampire RPG to explore ‘something in pop culture that nobody yet has done’ in videogames: ‘We will see how people like it’

(Image credit: Rebel Wolves) For PC Gamer magazine’s upcoming The Blood of Dawnwalker issue I spoke directly to Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, the developer who is right now best known for being the game director on the legendary fantasy RPG, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Fast forward to 2025, and Tomaszkiewicz is now founder and leader of
