Released exclusively on Nintendo Switch last April, Star Overdrive is now available on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. After spending a few hours on the game, we are happy to share a 4K gameplay video revealing the area that follows the Steam demo content.

As the Nintendo Switch 2 is now available, we took some time to capture some 4K videos from Mario Kart World, Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour, Yakuza 0 Director's Cut, Sonic X Shadow Generations, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S, Fast Fusion and Arcade Archives 2 RIDGE RACER.

You may not have heard, but this week, Still Wakes the Deep is getting a paid DLC entitled Siren's Rest. Set ten years after the events of the original game, this expansion lets you plunge into the depths of the North Sea to try and understand what happened to the oil rig on which Caz McLeary had to face the worst atrocities in the main game. Some of the gameplay mechanics (rather limited given the genre) of the main adventure are retained, but as you are also regularly underwater, new ones are introduced, such as the use of a blowtorch to force your way inside the different areas of the wreckage. With a lifespan of between two and three hours, this new content seems rather solid in terms of atmosphere, but we hope it will be more memorable from a narrative point of view. Siren's Rest is priced at €11.04 on Steam until July 2 (with a 50% discount on the main game until June 26), but the recommended retail price is €12.99.

The Alters will be available tomorrow on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and it's been a couple of weeks since we received our review code. After seriously embarking on the adventure and failing miserably to save Jan Dowski and his clones from certain death, we had to reluctantly put the game aside, due to another game by a certain Hideo Kojima, which we also had to deal with over the same period. Given the relatively demanding nature of the game developed by 11 bit Studios and the organisation required to see it through to the end, it was indeed difficult to meet the deadlines for both titles. Nevertheless, as we really enjoyed our time spent on this unknown planet at the verge of destruction, we've prepared a thirteen-minute presentation video looking back on our experience with the game, as well as a spoiler-free gameplay video revealing a few extracts from the beginning of the adventure (set after the demo content). Note that the presentation video is presented in French only but automated English subtitles are available for those of you who do not understand our barbaric language.

For once, rather than talking about games, we're going to take a few minutes of your time to talk about the arrival of a long-awaited service on the Steam Deck. So, no videos on the menu today, but a few Gamersyde images (in 800p, obviously, keep in mind that the games look a lot more impressive on the Deck) and a short article to share our feedback on our experience. Enjoy your reading!

After our Braking Point coverage on Saturday, it's time to take a closer look at the F1 25 experience. Check out the gameplay video of the game we recorded on Xbox Series X, this time showcasing the five tracks freshly laser-scanned using LIDAR technology and one of the three reversed tracks. If we manage to get a PS5 or PC code, we'll be back with more footage, but for the time being, it'll be all.

A few days ago, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Legends of the Zone Trilogy was finally released on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in an Enhanced version featuring four distinct graphics modes. On PS5 and Series X, you'll find the classic Quality and Performance modes, which run at 30 and 60 fps respectively, in resolutions that oscillate between 4K for the former and 1755p (at best, this can drop to around 1350p) for the latter. Note that the image displayed on PS5 Pro, which is the version you'll see in our long video, logically offers better image quality, with a resolution that varies between 1800p and 4K in Performance mode. You also have two other choices, with a Balanced mode (40 fps and resolution fluctuating between 2016p and 4K on PS5 and Series X, 4K for the Pro) and an Ultra Performance mode (120 fps, between 1170p and 1440p for standard consoles and 1440p on Pro). The Series S logically loses the Ultra Performance mode, but the other three are still present. Of course, image quality is affected compared to other machines (Quality mode is 30 fps / 1440p, Performance mode is 60 fps / 864p-1080p and Balanced is 40 fps 1188p-1440p).

As part of our video preview coverage of F1 25, we've been authorized to share with you some excerpts from the first two chapters of the new season of Braking Point. After a quick recap of past events, we meet up with the now-familiar characters for a new championship but don't worry if you're afraid of spoilers, we're only revealing the very beginning of the adventure, giving you the chance to discover a few cutscenes and three circuits only. From what we've been able to see, the premise is rather engaging, but remains in line with the two previous seasons of this story-driven mode. It's sometimes possible to select your driver at the start of the chapter (this is the case for the first one, with the choice between Aiden Jackson and Callie Mayer), we're also entitled to post-race interview sessions (which increase your reputation with the press for example), but also to a bit of management thanks to passages through Casper Akkerman's office. It's nothing revolutionary per se but it's still undeniably effective, so we can't wait to see what happens next, all the more so as the handling and driving model are excellent as ever, with a top-notch sensation of speed.

Originally released for free on itchio, Out of Sight was a very short concept game (allow half an hour for completion) made in six weeks by a team of eight people. Two years later, it has become a fully fledged title, and although it remains rather limited in terms of lifespan (you'll need well under four hours to see it through), it's more than worthy of a new Gamersyde review.

Despite spending fifteen hours on Blades of Fire, we decided it would be unwise to write an actual review, which in any case would not have been representative of the entire Blades of Fire adventure. That said, we couldn't leave you without our impressions of our experience, especially as we were originally far from convinced that we'd really get hooked on MercurySteam's game. And yet...
