Its been four years since Biomutant was first announced, popping up in a trailer that looked very very alright if we're being honest. Fast forward to the hell-year that is 2021, and the game actually looks…really good!

Yesterday’s Night City Wire dive had a whole bunch of new content to show off for Cyberpunk 2077, revealing more of a game that so far looks downright stunning, detailed and features a world where Keanu Reeves will never truly die. But like everyone else, I need to know more about how whoopie stick customisation will factor into the game.

One thing that Need for Speed Heat does exceptionally well though? Provide a workshop wherein you can apply some fantastic liveries to your vehicle of choice. Which is why I want to create the butt-ugliest car of all time. I can’t do it alone though.

By the sound of things, Need for Speed Heat is mixing a celebration of car culture (FORZA HORIZON 4 SENSES TINGLING!) with its trademark racing against the thin blue line, as players will hit the streets during the day to take part in the official Speedhunters Showdown competition where they can earn some scratch to upgrade their rides and then use those vehicles to take on the law.

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed was released back in 2012, and it’s still a damn good game. This year sees a newer version of Sonic hit the tracks, in the form of Team Sonic Racing. SEGA had plenty to show off at SXSW, which may just be one of the weirdest venues ever for video game news…or the cleverest. Well played SEGA, well played.

You look at a Javelin in Anthem, and you don’t just see several tons of awesome being used to pepper a battlefield with micro-rockets and exotic techno-magic. I see a lethal expression of individuality, suits which can be tailored to provide a unique and glorious final image before an enemy finds their face rearranged by a mechanised metal fist of frontier justice.

Sleek, elegant and somewhat sophisticated in its brutal application. The old west had plenty of other weapons that were equal parts fine art and murder tools, but seeing a six-shooter that could be embellished with ivory handles or subtle engravings made for a weapon that always felt unique in the hand of its owner. In Red Dead Redemption 2, there’ll be plenty of guns to choose from, which can also be augmented to both cosmetic and utilitarian purposes according to Rockstar Games.

The Evil Within 2 is going to be slightly more malleable, allowing you to better crave your playstyle out and progress in a way that seems best to you.
