The team behind Control reckons that they'll be able to pull off better-looking and deeper games on the PS5 when it launches.

I still haven’t played Borderlands 3. It’s sitting there, installed, ready to go my PlayStation 4 Pro, but I haven’t so much as looked at the icon in weeks. I refuse to play it, mostly because it’s a game series that I play co-op with my wife. We could split-screen the thing, but I’m waiting on that promised cross-platform play that’ll let me play on PC while she plays on PS4. I also very much doubt this functionality will ever come, so it’s possible that I may just never play Borderlands 3. Don't be like me.

The game-streaming future has arrived. Sure, there have been a few teething problems, but Stadia, along with PlayStation Now and Microsoft’s in-beta xCloud all prove that those sorts of services are viable. They may not get players to ditch their PCs or consoles, but they’re an option for those who don’t necessarily want local hardware. The next big player in that segment is obviously Amazon – and it’s been rumoured that they’ll launch a game streaming option in the future. They’ve acquired a handful of developers over the last few years, and have scalable, nearly global server technology to make it happen.

Set between the events of Half-Life and Half-Life 2, Alyx Vance and her father Eli mount an early resistance to the Combine's brutal occupation of Earth.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior has always seemed like the bastard step-child to the super Sniper Elite franchise. Polish developer CI Games’ last game, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 did little to change that perception. While the tactical shooter offered an open world, it offered little interesting or new and suffered from a raft of technical issues. With that in mind, I didn’t really expect to enjoy Sniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts at all.

There’s a lot of potential still waiting to be tapped in Chikara Action Arcade Wrestling, and considering how the game is in a constant state of evolution, it won’t be long before it makes the jump from the mid-card to the main event spotlight.
