Philips has been releasing a steady stream of great-looking gaming monitors over the last few weeks, and the latest to join the roster is the Philips Evnia 32M2N8800, a 32-inch, 4K, QD-OLED panel with one of our favorite features tucked round the back. That's right, Philips' long-running Ambiglow tech is on hand to cast an-image matching glow behind the monitor. We've been fans of Ambiglow since forever, and were stoked to see it feature in Philips' top-tier 49-inch QD-OLED, the Philips Evnia 49M2C8900L, but we wouldn't necessarily have expected the feature to appear on all its new OLED displays. We've yet to test any of the range to see if they're best gaming monitor contenders, but with Ambiglow on hand, and a cool, stylish design, our hopes are definitely up.

My Summer Game Fest was filled with glimpses of some of the biggest games of this year. Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Phantom Blade Zero, Assassin’s Creed: Shadows - the list goes on. Yet, despite seeing all of these virtual titans, one of my favorite experiences was with a much smaller title. Created by Bad Guitar Studio and published by NetEase, Fragpunk is a 5v5 FPS that, at first glance, looks pretty similar to Riot Games’ Valorant. Upon further inspection, however, it’s got a unique twist that I absolutely love.

Baldur’s Gate 3 unquestionably led the conversation in 2023. The standout Larian Studios RPG masterfully weaves the classes and settings of Dungeons and Dragons into a gripping, choice-driven story packed with memorable characters. But Larian’s appointment for the role was long-considered, given the reputation of the franchise as some of the best PC games ever made, and now you can get the definitive release of the first, BioWare-developed, game in the series as a free game if you subscribe to Prime Gaming in July.

Direct gameplay capture has been a much-requested feature, not just on the Steam Deck, but also on the Steam platform in general. Now, Valve has announced a new capture technology that allows for the saving, editing, and sharing of gameplay clips in a streamlined manner, and the feature is already available for Steam Deck too. As the best handheld gaming PC, the Steam Deck needs already has a lot going for it, but the lack of a capture feature has been a thorn in its side until now. Also, the addition of gameplay recording is a much more exciting feature for the portable than it is on the PC, because there have been many simple ways to capture footage on the PC via third-party software for decades.

Even if you’re not playing Elden Ring’s DLC it’s nice to have a big gaming event occur like this, people full of excitement and talking theories, tips, and the things they’ve seen and done. There’s been a feeling of malaise over much of the gaming world over recent years with the big releases of the past seemingly relegated to history. Then along came Elden Ring which blew everything up in a way we hadn’t seen for ages, and now Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree has gone and done it again.
