Modder adds full local co-op to Resident Evil 2 remake on PC

A PC modder has created a mod for Capcom’s Resident Evil 2 remake that introduces local co-op functionality, allowing two players to control their own characters instead of just having a computer-controlled ally. The mod, called Local Couch Co-op, was developed by Shopcreeper01 and offers various character selections, each with unique inventories and HUD elements. It supports both shared-screen and split-screen display modes and requires the Steam version of Resident Evil 2 along with REFramework. The mod is exclusive to PC users. Additionally, it features an experimental mode inspired by Capcom’s upcoming title, Pragmata, where one player manages movement and the other focuses on aiming and shooting.

Hellraiser: Revival (PC) REVIEW – The Wettest Game of the Year

The Hellraiser franchise began with Clive Barker's literary works and transitioned into a film in 1987, followed by nine sequels and a reboot. The latest installment, Hellraiser: Revival, is a narrative-driven single-player game that incorporates elements from various gaming genres, including a grim atmosphere similar to Condemned, a merchant system like Resident Evil 4, chase sequences akin to Outlast, hide-and-seek mechanics inspired by Alien: Isolation, abilities reminiscent of BioShock, and crafting systems typical of modern gaming. The story follows Aidan Lynch, who seeks to rescue his partner Sunny from Pinhead after a traumatic encounter. Aidan, portrayed by Xalavier Nelson Jr., is a flawed character who faces internal struggles, while Doug Bradley reprises his role as Pinhead. The game features dynamic combat with a variety of weapons and enemies, requiring strategic thinking. Despite some budget constraints and minor flaws, Hellraiser: Revival is noted for its impressive art direction and atmospheric design, without any microtransactions. A deluxe edition key was provided for the review.

To celebrate September 30, the day the cop inside of Leon Kennedy died, here’s my most traumatic encounters in Resident Evil

September 30 marks 28 years since the events that shaped Leon S. Kennedy in the Resident Evil franchise, particularly the Raccoon City incident caused by Umbrella Corporation's bioweapon experimentation. Key moments from the series include: - In Resident Evil Village, players experience a terrifying chase involving a giant fetus, creating a lasting impression of horror. - Resident Evil 7 features Marguerite Baker, known as "Spider-Mum," whose grotesque appearance leaves a significant impact on players. - In Resident Evil 2, the tension from being pursued by Mr. X (T-00) is heightened by the haunting sound of his footsteps. - The emotional scene in Resident Evil 2 with Robert Kendo trying to comfort his daughter Emma as she succumbs to the outbreak resonates deeply with players. - In Resident Evil: Revelations 2, the decision to leave Moira behind results in a gut-wrenching emotional fallout. - The Keeper's Diary from the original Resident Evil explores the descent into madness due to T-virus infection, creating a disturbing narrative.

Denuvo Suing Prolific Pirate, But They Don’t Seem Worried At All

Denuvo has filed a lawsuit against an individual known as "voices38" for allegedly tampering with and bypassing its anti-piracy technology, which is used in various popular PC games. The lawsuit was initiated in the U.S. Northern District Court of California, claiming violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Denuvo describes voices38 as a "computer hacker" who has cracked numerous games, including titles like Doom: The Dark Ages and Hogwarts Legacy. Voices38 responded casually on Reddit, indicating a lack of concern for the lawsuit. Denuvo's business model relies on selling DRM solutions, and while it cannot sue for copyright infringement, it claims to be harmed by voices38's activities. The lawsuit lists several games that voices38 has allegedly cracked and marks Denuvo's first legal action against a video game pirate in the U.S. The company is also attempting to uncover voices38's true identity and may file subpoenas to gather more information. Public sentiment appears to be against Denuvo, with criticism regarding its software's impact on legitimate users.

Steam Price-Fixing Lawsuit: Valve, 10 Publishers Sued [2026]

On August 27, 2026, a class action lawsuit was filed in San Mateo County Superior Court by three California gamers—Alexander Shimota, Ricardo Camargo, and John Elliott—against Valve Corporation and ten video game publishers, accusing them of colluding to maintain uniform pricing for PC games across digital storefronts. The lawsuit alleges that Valve requires publishers on its Steam platform to agree to a most-favored-nation clause, preventing them from offering lower prices on competing platforms, which stifles competition and limits consumer choice. The ten implicated publishers include Activision Blizzard, Electronic Arts, and Sony Interactive Entertainment. The lawsuit is filed under California's Cartwright Act and claims that the coordinated pricing strategy harms consumers by reducing product diversity and inflating prices. Valve's commission structure, which has largely remained unchanged, is central to the plaintiffs' argument. Valve's co-founder, Gabe Newell, has previously denied dictating prices to third-party developers. The lawsuit is distinct from a prior case, Wolfire Games v. Valve, which focuses on monopoly abuse against developers rather than consumer pricing. Additionally, Valve faces a parallel £2 billion class action in the UK regarding similar pricing allegations. The outcome of these cases could significantly impact the pricing landscape for PC games and the practices of digital storefronts.
