Tunic's official fox plushie is ridiculously adorable

Squish fulfilment. If you’re in the market for a bit of gaming merchandise that just might make your eyeballs inflate dangerously in your skull from sheer cuteness overload, publisher Finji is here to help with an official plushie version of the fox from Andrew Shouldice’sacclaimedaction-adventure Tunic. Ordinarily, cute fluffy plushies probably wouldn’t be top of my news list (unless we’re talking about the Monster Hunter ones, cos those’re bloody great), but the chorus of ‘awws’ and ‘ahhhhs’ in the Eurogamer Slack when this thing got posted suggests interest may be high....

Wild Hearts: a potentially great game impacted by tech issues on all platforms

PS5, PC and Xbox Series versions tested. The concept art behind each Kemono is brilliantly translated in-game, too. It’s hard to overlook Wild Hearts' visual shortfalls, however. Firstly, texture-work doesn’t hold up to scrutiny when viewed up close. Any time your weapon overlaps with detail-dense textures you’ll see banding. Even at its best, I found the blur’s rather heavy impact makes the action harder to read. In terms of visual modes and features, we have two options on PS5 and Series X....

Company of Heroes: a brilliant PC game lacking in technical ambition

Plus: those all-important optimised configs. The goal of the game is not just to overcome the enemy while micromanaging your base and resource gathering. In short, this is a different form of RTS with a smaller, more tactical nature. Let’s be clear - the game still looks great and has a lot going for it. The detail is now driven by material properties, like a modern game. However, there’s plenty that could benefit from further improvement....
