Just adding my voice to all the rave reviews on Hellraiser.

Was a deliciously dark and disturbing romp.

Even with the critic reviews being mild at best, the player reviews are doing it justice.

@tea, could you confirm whether the deluxe edition of Star Wars Galatic Racer comes with a steelbook?

@Phreak

How Hellraiser made it through the ratings boards is beyond me. But I give the devs 10/10 with authenticity and sticking to what Hellraiser is.

Hellraiser franchise has had it's fair share of ups, downs, more downs and even more downs. But luckily Dimension doesn't have the movie rights anymore. And there is a rumour that Clive Barker is in fact writing and directing a new Hellraiser movie. So that would be amazing.

@Tea: I think Kena 2 was unfortunatly delayed. But its a small team. So its good they get more time.

@phreak - you what im waiting for ... the release date on Kena 2. The first game was a complete gem and likely my game of the year when it was released.

@VectorTwoSix

For now I would not be hopeful, this article was released https://wccftech.com/phantom-blade-zero-playstation-5-pulled-listings-no-physical-edition/ that shows for now, there is no intention for a physical release, maybe it will be like Black Myth Wukong where they will release physical later

Possibly after the timed exclusivity ends

Look I'm really excited for Phantom Blade Zero, but I refuse to buy it digitally. Much like Black Myth Wukong, I will wait if I have to, but if you're getting a physical, please sign me up (I heard rumours there would be some physicals released).

Nintendo Partner Direct July 2025 – When and Where to Watch

by Sam Aberdeen on 31 July, 2025

Yesterday, Nintendo officially announced a new Direct Partner showcase which will run for approximately 25 minutes and reportedly have a “heavy focus” on third-party titles potentially coming to the Switch 2. While it isn’t the first-party showcase that fans might’ve been expecting, it will be great to see which third-party games are coming over to the improved hardware of the Switch 2. Here’s when and where to watch the event.

Nintendo confirmed in a post on social media yesterday that it will host its new Direct Partner showcase featuring “roughly 25 minutes of information on upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch games from our publishing partners.” Ahead of the event, rumours began circulating online of possible announcements for Red Dead Redemption 2, Borderlands 4 and even more Xbox exclusives making their way to the new system.

As for when you can watch the showcase, it will take place today, 31 July at 15:00 SAST or 06:00 PT.

There are a few options to watch the Nintendo Partner Direct. Nintendo provided a link to its official YouTube stream which is currently counting down to the showcase. We’ve also embedded it below for your convenience.

As mentioned before, we can expect a focus on third-party games as is common with Partner Direct showcases. The original Nintendo Switch, which had its fair share of third-party support and some “miracle” ports like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and DOOM, wasn’t the strongest hardware to run most third-party games on the market. As a result, developers had to take some shortcuts to get certain games running on the system, leading to heavily stripped back or technically problematic ports like Hogwarts Legacy, Batman: Arkham Knight and most infamously, Mortal Kombat 1.

The Switch 2 is perfectly capable of running Cyberpunk 2077, arguably one of the more graphically intense games out right now, with little to no compromises, so it will be interesting to see how other third-party titles fare on the new hardware.
