Can I cheat a bit with someone from Dark Horse comics? I'd love a game starring Hellboy. He's had a few games in the past but they were pretty rubbish - I'd love to see him in full next-gen glory. Sticking more to the rules... I think Ghostrider could make for a really fun game. He's such a...

The issue even has a trailer now! Definitely the first magazine I've ever worked on to have one. View: https://twitter.com/pcgamer/status/1275745943779004416

Hello forum goers! I wanted to pop in to let you know, we've got a really special issue of the magazine going on sale this Thursday. We're calling it the Escape Your World issue. It's a celebration of the best of gaming worlds - from the rolling plains of Red Dead Redemption 2, to the snowy...

Hi Peter, thanks for answering everyone's questions! You mention some tabletop games there - are you a big tabletop gamer? How does that influence your approach to development?

The latest issue of PC Gamer UK, 342, is in shops now! Inside, you'll find: -Behind the scenes with Larian as they reveal Baldur's Gate III in all its glory. -A visit to Riot to check out its new shooter Valorant. -The most prolific indie devs in the business - Sokpop Collective - reveal how...

I'm a bit biased (being the editor of the mag) but I think it's great! We work really hard to make sure the mag's the best it can be each month, drawing on all the same writers as on the website, plus lots of really talented freelancers. And I've got lots of exciting plans for the year ahead...

Update on the Fantasy Flight stuff: it looks like they are indeed dropping RPGs entirely :( http://www.d20radio.com/main/fantasy-flight-games-long-term-plan-will-discontinue-rpg-development/

I really like the Hellboy board game for co-op dungeon-crawling - though admittedly I'm a huge fan of the comics. It does some really clever stuff with its dice mechanics, and the miniatures are just fantastic. Completely nails the tone of the source material. I gave the Arkham Horror Card...

Keep meaning to go back to MK11. Really enjoyed the core fighting at launch, but ended up falling off it because of how frustrating I found the progression.

Kids love chaos!

Fingers crossed. I can't claim any insider knowledge but the impression I got was they're basically jettisoning the parts of the business that aren't very profitable (they also killed their videogame division) in favour of those that are (FFG make a killing on board games), possibly to prepare...

Just to warn both of you - it sounds like Fantasy Flight have recently let go all their RPG writers so I'd expect them to drop support for all their RPGs in the near future.

Just started using Galaxy 2.0 for the first time the other day and I really love it so far. Feels like digital tidying up, and it feels far easier now to keep track of what I've got and what I've got installed. I'm yet to really dive into all its features though - with a library as unwieldy as...

When I'm not PC gaming, one of my biggest loves is tabletop role-playing - and I bet I'm not alone around here. So let's chat - what games are you running/playing in? What systems do you like? Are there any upcoming books you're looking forward to? Do you have any questions about the hobby? I'm...

Depends what you count as kid-friendly really. If you're looking for simple and accessible, Divekick is great fun, reducing the entire concept of fighting games down to just two buttons. Gangbeasts is another great one for some easy, silly fun, though it's maybe more a wrestling game than a...
