Immersive sims like Dishonored and Deus Ex are typically solo experiences, but there have been a few attempts to bring multiplayer into the mix over the years. System Shock 2 featured an infamously wonky cooperative mode that was overhauled in last year's Nightdive remaster, while Arkane's Deathloop successfully folded an invasion mechanic into its mix of roguelike running and emergent sneaking......

rkane's 2017 immersive sim Prey is a genuinely great videogame, with a genuinely weird name—shared with a pre-existing shooter and a famously cancelled sequel that it has absolutely nothing to do with. Arkane founder Raphael Colantonio said a few years ago that he really did not want to call it Prey, and it turns out he was not alone on that: Former Bethesda marketing and communications boss Pete ...

Few ideas have as universal an appeal as the space bounty hunter: a character archetype that blends all the best bits of wandering ronin and western gunslingers and gives them a cool spaceship and a jetpack. But while almost everyone wants to be Boba Fett, videogames have given us few chances to live out that fantasy. The closest we've gotten was getting to play his briefly-capitated dad... Read m...

The original Prey was one of the most striking and innovative FPS games of the 2000s - I mean, it had portals before Portal, for crying out loud. It was the excellent result of an admittedly turbulent development cycle that spanned roughly a decade, and that instability spread to its planned sequel, Prey 2.

First-person shooters are one of the genres that's come to define gaming on PC. Between the rip-roaring action of a good gunfight, social interactions of an MMO, or the long-term decision-making of a strategy game, playing on our computers has been characterized by some key experiences. Prey, Titanfall 2, and Doom Eternal always come to my mind when I think of FPS games, as they're easily some of ...

In case you've never played Prey, Fallout 3, or its 'cooler Daniel' Fallout: New Vegas—I've got great news. You can get all three of them for less than I, PC Gamer writer Harvey Randall, will be spending on lunch shortly after I write this... Read more.

Prey was released in 2017 to some lukewarm review scores, but overall, it had a pretty fantastic reception, with many praising it as an underrated masterpiece. But only one fan took their love of the game to the next level, counting down the days until a possible sequel was announced... Read more.

Like many PC gamers across the world, I was appalled when I heard about the shuttering of Arkane Austin by Microsoft. Despite the studio's recent woe with Redfall, a game described by some commentators as one where 'executives ruined everything', I'd presumed that its previously stellar track record and new ownership by a financial juggernaut would insulate it from the tsunami ...

fter laying off thousands of employees over the past couple years, games industry executives appear to be adopting a more efficient method of what they euphemistically call "reprioritization": closing entire studios. Take-Two axed two studios just last week, and now Microsoft has bulldozed four more, including Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks, which it acquired when it bought Bethesda in 2021... ...

rkane co-founder Raphael Colantonio, who left the studio in 2017 and launched indie developer WolfEye Studios a couple years later, is teasing his next game—and even though it's just scribbles on a whiteboard, I am already excited... Read more.
