But Apex Legends has something none of those other games have: style. Why The Hot New Redfall Gameplay Trailer Left Us Feeling Cold Off English Read More: The

I usually think “Soulslike” is a loaded term; FromSoftware’s legendarily grim and difficult 2011 role-playing game Dark Souls inspired a crowd of similarly grim, difficult games, but I don’t think any of those imitators can compare to the regal original. Except, maybe, FromSoftware’s other games and Souls sequels. With the help of other Kotaku staffers,
Overwatch 2 players are very particular about balance and fairness and their perception of both those things. So when I looked at these new patch notes and started skimming them, I was so concerned with seeing what changes were being made that I missed the “OVERWATCH 2 WIP VERY SERIOUS PATCH NOTES – DRAFT –
Vitamins and minerals are essential for keeping our body functioning properly, each of them playing a different role in our health. Primarily, we get the nutrients we need from a well-balanced diet. Vitamin supplements can act as a safety net to fill the gaps in our diet. However, you can still be vitamin deficient while
When it comes to soundbars, there are plenty of features you’ll want to look for, but by far the most popular and oft-requested by CNET’s readers is Dolby Atmos audio. Like DTS:X, Dolby Atmos differs from standard surround sound by adding height to your music and movies for a more dynamic and immersive sound and better listening experience. The best
Stripe competitor Checkout.com announced last month that Céline Dufétel was appointed as its new president. She had previously served as the London-based fintech startup’s CFO and COO for about 18 months before her promotion. In her expanded role, which still includes serving as the company’s COO, Dufétel oversees all operational and go-to-market teams, including finance
The blockbuster industries of pop music and gaming have been collaborating for almost as long as games have existed—at least since 1983, when Journey got their very own Midway arcade cabinet. Those kinds of branded crossovers have only grown with time, especially in online games like Fortnite, which has transformed from a straightforward multiplayer battle
Parmesan cheese, as popular a choice as it may be here in the US, is also one of the most controversial. Turophiles, chefs, cheesemongers and industry folk know the authentic stuff as “Parmigiano Reggiano.” Anything else marketed and sold simply as “Parmesan” cheese is usually of a lower standard in the US and is rightly
Back in February, Northspyre announced it had raised $25 million to bring costs under control for big building projects. (TechCrunch’s Mary Ann Azevedo mentioned the fundraise in her fintech newsletter.) It’s a huge industry with powerful potential — so how does a company like that tell the story of what it’s building? We’re lucky enough
If you think embedded insurance is the only hot thing in insurtech these days, we’ve got a surprise in store for you: While it’s true that startups that help sell insurance together with other products and services are enjoying tailwinds, there are plenty of other opportunities in the space, several investors told TechCrunch+. You see,
According to the American Medical Association, an estimated 30 million Americans have sleep apnea, yet only one-fifth of these are clinically diagnosed. For such a widespread condition, many people aren’t aware of sleep apnea symptoms and health impacts, including everything from snoring to fatigue. Below, we’ll dive into some common questions about sleep apnea so
Apple currently sells eight different iPhone models that date back to 2020. Compare that to when Steve Jobs launched the original iPhone in 2007 where the only option was getting 4GB or 8GB of storage. While there’s no such thing as a true “best” iPhone, depending on your needs, budget and preferences, some iPhone models
With a drier than normal investment scene, founders are looking for more effective ways to reach the right VCs. Toward that end, over the past few weeks, thousands of founders have applied to land capital through a common app, but instead of hoping to land into a university, they’re hoping to land capital from top
Yesterday, the ride-sharing company Lyft said its two co-founders, John Zimmer and Logan Green, are stepping down from managing the company’s day-to-day operations, though they are retaining their board seats. According to a related regulatory filing, they actually need to hang around as “service providers” to receive their original equity award agreements. (If Lyft is sold

Resident Evil 4 combines two of my least favorite things in the world: shooting and horror. But with the remake out, and nearly twenty years passing since my initial adverse reaction to it (you can’t expect an elementary schooler to adequately handle their character being axed in the head), I thought I was ready to
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds went from a mod for zombie survival game DayZ (itself a mod for milsim ARMA2), to an instantly successful Steam Early Access standalone in 2017. The game was inspired by Japanese action film Battle Royale, in which a collapsing society sends students to kill one another until only one remains. It’s a theme
The Sonos One has been my favorite Wi-Fi speaker ever since it was released in 2017. It’s compact and capable of filling large rooms with sound, and it’s reasonably affordable. Yet, with the successive arrival of competitors, the Sonos One has lagged behind in terms of features, especially its lack of Bluetooth. The $250 Sonos
Fertility treatment is a huge industry, but traditionally it has been very geographically and demographically limited. U.S. fertility clinics are concentrated in the top 10 metropolitan areas across the country, and around 82% of recipients of care have historically been Caucasian, heterosexual married women living in a big city making more than $100,000 a year.
Early-stage investments inherently have a higher risk of failing, but these risks also come with potentially higher rewards — getting in at the ground floor of a startup’s journey gives VCs more negotiation clout. This is particularly true at the very early pre-seed stage, where companies might barely have a functioning product to shout about.
While a lot of folks are gravitating toward compact true-wireless earbuds, full-size over-ear or “around-the-ear” headphones remain quite popular. Most of the over-ear headphones on this list are wireless Bluetooth headphones that feature active noise canceling (some but not all wireless headphones also come with a cable for wired listening), but I’ve also included a
Diablo IV’s open beta has finally come to an end, meaning we won’t get another opportunity to play the loot-grinding RPG until it drops on June 6. Now that most of everyone at Kotaku had the chance to check out Hell (or at least the emissaries from it you encounter in the early game), we

Generative AI is disrupting industries — with understandable controversy. Earlier this month, Danny Postma, the founder of Headlime, an AI-powered marketing copy startup that was recently acquired by Jasper, announced Deep Agency, a platform he describes as an “AI photo studio and modeling agency.” Using art-generating AI, Deep Agency creates and offers “virtual models” for
Sonos has two new speakers going on sale Tuesday, March 28, and they’re both significant new models that occupy a couple of key spots in the overall Sonos line-up: The Era 100 is essentially the replacement for the Sonos One, arguably the ‘default’ starter speaker for anyone looking to build out a Sonos system. The
There is a new type of Guy. There’s always a new genre of Guy. Historically, but especially in the past five years, men have begun to coagulate — merge, if you will — around singular, unified identities that bond them in spaces both real and virtual. We have Video Game Guys. Craft Beer Guys. Reddit
When you’re losing weight, it’s easy to only focus on the present, but you should have a game plan for how you intend to maintain your weight loss after all that hard work you put in. By now you know that fad diets and quick fixes aren’t the best way to approach weight loss since these
