For over five decades, Hot Wheels has been bringing signature plastic-and-diecast vehicular mayhem directly into our living rooms. While flooring miniature cars across bedroom rugs is a rite of passage for almost every gamer, taking those iconic speedsters into the digital realm unlocks anti-gravity boosts, loop-de-loops, and explosive arcade action that real-world physics just won’t allow. If you’re looking to scratch that high-octane itch, here are the top 10 Hot Wheels video games

September is here, hopefully bringing an end to three solid months of UK heatwaves. Judging by the rest of the world, we’re not the only ones ready for things to cool down. It also marks the beginning of one of gaming’s busiest release periods, with enough AAA games on the horizon to assault your console, PC, and bank balance. Even so, it’s worth making room for the smaller releases that could become your game of the year. Here are some of September’s most interesting indie games. Grail &#8211

It has been 20 years since the last mainline Onimusha game, 2006’s Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams. Now Capcom’s samurai action series is finally returning with Onimusha: Way of the Sword, a new adventure that brings its demon-slaying combat into the modern era. From the release date and story to gameplay details, editions, pre-order bonuses, PC specifications and the latest trailer, here’s everything you need to know about Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Onimusha: Way of the Sword Release Date Onimusha: W

Rebel Wolves is stepping into the spotlight with a dark fantasy RPG where daylight does not necessarily mean safety. Becoming a vampire might even be the best chance you have of saving the people you love. As we explored in our look at how The Blood of Dawnwalker is shaping up to be the next must-have action RPG, its human-vampire duality, reactive quests, and technical combat give it plenty of reasons to stand out. The Blood of Dawnwalker sends players to a plague-stricken corner of 14th-centur

The gacha game landscape gets substantially busier every time HoYoverse announces a new title. Genshin Impact propelled the company into the stratosphere, while Honkai: Star Rail and Zenless Zone Zero have since catered to different tastes and helped the developer reach even more corners of the gaming world. With that in mind, it isn’t surprising to see HoYoverse turn its attention to creature collecting with Honkai: Nexus Anima. A Colourful World With a Darker Side Honkai: Nexus Anima is a litt

The arrival of Onimusha: Way of the Sword has brought Capcom’s supernatural samurai series back into the spotlight. It also gives us the perfect excuse to revisit the games that established its distinctive blend of swordplay, historical drama and demonic horror. Since the original game debuted in 2001, Onimusha has taken players across feudal Japan, modern-day France and even the occasional tactical battlefield. While Way of the Sword is still new enough to deserve more time before earning its p

Looking back, it seems surprising that we haven’t had a game like Star Wars Zero Company already. After all, combining XCOM-style turn-based strategy with the endlessly compelling Star Wars universe sounds like an irresistible prospect for fans of both. Fortunately, Star Wars Zero Company looks set to fill that gap. Developer Bit Reactor appears to be bringing the best of tactical strategy and Star Wars together, from its character-driven story and cinematic presentation to its expanded action-p

Ten years on, it is hardly a stretch to call Hello Games’ No Man’s Sky one of the best redemption stories the games industry has ever produced. To understand the scale of that achievement, though, we first need to dive face-first into the pool of disappointment that greeted its original launch in August 2016. The Promise and the Disappointment Despite getting on a bit in years, I remember the announcement of No Man’s Sky remarkably well. Before its reveal trailer had shown even a second of gamep

After a couple of delays, Pax Autocratica is finally out in the wild, spreading its influence across alien planets. It can be difficult to pin down exactly what the game is from its trailers, largely because it combines two very different styles of play. On one side, there’s the action: shooting enemies, completing objectives and gathering resources to strengthen your cause and spread the good word of authoritarianism. On the other, there’s a base-building colony sim. Rather than managing everyt

We would say that more than any other genre, the humble PC (or not so humble if you’re rocking a top-end build) is synonymous with tactical war games. Quite simply, no other platform can compare to the sheer width, breadth, and depth of tactical war games available on PC. With that in mind, here are some of the genre’s best that you should seek out as soon as possible. Armored Brigade II Easily one of the most hardcore real-time war games available on PC, Armored Brigade II has enjoyed plenty o

Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls is shaping up to be an exciting addition to the fighting game genre. Alongside its eye-catching presentation, the game brings together a wide range of Marvel heroes and villains, each offering their own personality and potential playstyle. So, who can you play as when the game launches? Below, we break down the Marvel Tōkon launch roster and introduce every announced character. Marvel Tōkon Launch Roster List The roster is divided into five teams, each featuring four

August is here, which means we’re nearing the end of summer. Frankly, that’s excellent news for anyone who has had enough of heatwaves. It’s been hot enough to see the air itself, and we’re done with it. Summer can sometimes be a quieter time for new releases. That is very much not the case this year. August is packed with all sorts of brilliant-looking indie games, so let’s take a look at some of the highlights. Anomaly President – 3rd August Anomaly President is a roguelike action game

Game Freak might be best known as the studio behind Pokémon, but Beast of Reincarnation looks like something very different indeed. This new action RPG swaps colourful creature collecting for a bleak, beautiful vision of post-apocalyptic Japan, where a lone warrior and her dog must survive a world twisted by blight. From the Beast of Reincarnation release date and story details to its one-person, one-dog combat system, PC specs, pre-order bonuses, and latest trailer, here’s everything you need t

The quick, slightly lazy, but undeniably useful elevator pitch for The Blood of Dawnwalker is this: imagine The Witcher, but you’re a vampire in the Carpathian Mountains. That premise alone is enough to make a lot of RPG fans pay attention. However, there’s far more to The Blood of Dawnwalker than that surface-level comparison. With its grim fantasy setting, reactive quest design, vampire-human duality, and serious RPG pedigree, Rebel Wolves’ debut is already looking like one of the most excitin

There are city builders, and then there’s Corsair Cove. Limbic Entertainment’s pirate strategy game takes a very different approach to the genre. Yes, the familiar foundations are here. You build a settlement, support its growth, and keep resources flowing. By almost every other measure, though, Corsair Cove swills grog in the general direction of its peers. Then it sets a course all its own. How so? We’re glad you asked. Vertical Construction Recalibrates How You Think About City Building Most

Ascend To Zero has an absolutely wonderful aesthetic, with little chibi characters running around, talking about the end of the world, and trying to fight off all sorts of monsters. There’s a disconnect, sure, but it’s just so darn cute that we can let it slide. The main premise is that the world has basically ended, but thanks to a useful yet faulty time machine, you can go back in time and try to change things. You only have 30 seconds to do so, though. The good news is that you ca

Denshattack! is one of those rare games that feels familiar in its aims, but completely fresh in its execution. It takes place in a world ravaged by climate change, where most of humanity now lives inside corporate-controlled domes. Outside of that carefully managed society, you play as a woman selling ramen from an old train. The rails, unfortunately, have seen better days. While you are technically still travelling on tracks, getting around means jumping gaps, pulling off kickflips, grinding r
