Kotaku’s Weekend Guide: 5 Games To Kick Back With


Oh, hey there. It’s weekend time once more and that means we’re taking a look at what’s been keeping us busy on our gaming machines. It’s been a pretty busy time of year for game releases, so there’s the usual new stuff in the pages ahead but also one stone-cold classic and even one game that’s...

Castlevania’s Emancipation Of Isaac Stole The Entire Show


I’ve been rewatching Netflix’s smash-hit anime adaptation of Konami’s vampiric video game series, Castlevania, to stave off my anticipation for its upcoming sequel, Castlevania: Nocturne. Unsurprisingly, the show is still a triumph among animated video game adaptations, thanks to its lore-accurate...

That ‘AI-Generated’ Anime Is A Slap In The Face To Pro Animators


Recently, “AI” machine-learning technologies have been creeping their way into artistic fields in both entertaining and harmful ways. While some AI content creators are just making videos for harmless fun, others, like the creators of a recent AI-generated anime short, wrongfully believe they’ve...

The 11 Best Metroidvanias To Get Lost In Right Now


The Metroidvania is by far the most esoterically named genre of video games. A portmanteau of Metroid and Castlevania, it pretty much boils down to: non-linear platform games with ability-gated exploration. Or, you know, you explore until you reach a point that requires a skill you’ve yet to pick...

God Of War Ragnarök Director ‘Would Love’ To Take A Swing At Castlevania


God of War Ragnarök just came out, and yet, there appears to be some hopefulness around the action-adventure game getting DLC. 2018's God of War didn’t get any sort of expansion after launch, so why this follow-up would when it’s supposed to conclude the rebooted series is a little odd....

Konami, one of the most influential Japanese game development and publishing companies, has announced it will be introducing Web3 and metaverse technologies into its games. The company opened 13 different job openings for three departments that will be responsible for developing the new projects...

The 10 Absolute Best Anime On Netflix


Netflix always asks you “Are you still watching?” after you dip your toes into a couple episodes of a show but it never quite nails its suggestions for which shows you should watch next. No lie, Netflix’s “Surprise Me” feature pointed me in the direction of this little-known indie TV series...

Vampire Survivors’ New Character Is, Uh…A Tree That Doesn’t Move At All


I’ve not played a lot of Vampire Survivors, but I know that moving around, dodging enemies, and running about are key parts of the game. So it’s a bit odd that the surprise hit’s newest secret character, just added in its latest beta update, is a fruit tree that doesn’t move. But don’t be fooled:...

Report: Netflix Doubles Down On Games As Stock Plummets


Netflix built its foundation on streamlined DVD rentals and, eventually, on tepid “prestige” TV series that people talk about for a week before forgetting they ever existed in the first place. Now, amid a rare financial stagnation, Netflix plans to commit hard to games, per a new report in...

Konami to Keep Selling NFTs to ‘Preserve Content’


Konami, one of the leading Japan-based game developers, elaborated on its future policy regarding NFTs. In its latest financial results meeting, Konami touched briefly on the subject of NFTs, and explained it would go on with its activities involving this technology as a preservation tool for some...

Castlevania-Inspired Roguelike Is Pure Dopamine


Over the last few days, I’ve been consumed by a game called Vampire Survivors. It’s cheap, both in terms of price (only $3) and presentation (giant buttons that look more suited to mobile than PC), while very obviously lifting most of its aesthetic inspiration from the Castlevania series. But...

Konami’s Castlevania Anniversary NFT Sale Raises Over $160K


Konami, a Japanese game developer and software publisher, raised more than $160K in its first foray into the non-fungible token (NFT) scene. This was the result of an NFT auction related to the 35th anniversary of Castlevania, one of its most popular franchises. The end result contrasts with what...
