This week, EA released “The Last Tiger,” the final mission for Battlefield V’s single-player campaign. Unlike the rest of the game, which has you fighting Nazis from various perspectives throughout World War II, “The Last Tiger” actually puts you in the jackboots of a German tank commander as he tries to defend…
Earlier this week, our writers submitted for reader consideration (and even, occasionally, approval) their collection of some of our favorite games of the year, in no particular order, and grouped around a single idea: What did we like this year, and why? As has become one of our favorite annual traditions here in the…
The robots own Appalachia now.
The A.V. Club hasn’t traditionally structured its year-end round-up with some authoritative ranking, choosing instead to look back at the myriad experiences we had in games over the year and sorting for the ones we really, truly liked. The result is a list that’s as true to our writers and their own predilections as…

Sony’s PlayStation Classic will be released on December 3rd. You’ve likely seen the lead marketing image—a miniature version of the original console photographed in the wrinkle-less hand of a player perhaps too young to remember the PlayStation’s original release in 1995. They’re holding the 2018 edition, finished…

There are only six levels in the new Hitman game, but each is a world unto itself: elaborately mapped, highly detailed, roamed by as many as a couple hundred non-player characters, the guards and gardeners blissfully going about their daily business, walking their own routes, tending to their own narrowly defined jobs…

Déraciné is a small game. Or maybe “intimate” is a better word; unlike FromSoftware’s multi-million-dollar Dark Souls franchise, which elevated the studio (and director Hidetaka Miyazaki) from quirky cult favorite to superstar status, there are no doomed gods on display here, no cursed warriors bringing down demons…

What scares you? It’s a question you know the answer to innately and immediately, as individualized as your fingerprint. Accordingly, horror games have tried everything in the book in order to scare players: disempowerment, alienation, animatronic jump-scares, eroticism, flagrant shattering of the fourth wall, and so…

Red Dead Redemption 2 begins in a fog of white light. It’s viscous, thick enough to cut. As Arthur Morgan, resident muscle for the Dutch Van der Linde gang, you begin the game hightailing out of a heist gone awry and shacked up in the mountains, a perilous expanse painted in sheets of blinding white snow. During the…
