wired.com Megan Farokhmanesh 2026-02-04 06:00:43

The video Game publisher Naughty Dog released a free update to The Last of Us Part II today that adds a new chronological story mode. The mode effectively replaces the game’s nonlinear structure that bounced players between two separate characters. Otherwise, the update keeps the gameplay the same. Game owners will get the new mode automatically as part of the latest patch download. In the original version of The Last of Us Part II, players switch between dual protagonists Ellie and Abby, whos

Worms are everywhere. I know and accept this, but I hate those little critters and they freak me out. Their wriggly bodies make my skin crawl, and I actively avoid them at all costs. But when Apple Arcade adds Worms Across Worlds, the next installment in the award-winning Worms series, on Aug. 7, I'll play it because the game's cartoony style make these worms palatable for me. Apple Arcade is filled with familiar and classic games, alongside exclusive titles, that you can play for $7 a month (£

Phones are fantastic these days, whether you spend $300 or $1,300. When they can all generally do what we expect, aesthetics come to the forefront.
