Thank your own personal deity—possibly Dracula—it’s Friday! First up, on the Switch, we’ve got the magical Hogwarts Legacy—a spellbinding, open-world journey that lets you wander the hallowed halls of the weirdest fortress this side of Drac’s digs in Castlevania. I’m also all about PC freebies that are capstoned by BioShock Infinite C.E. (and Battlefield V almost qualifies at 95% off, too).
Meanwhile, in Good Lord You’ve Aged news, I’m using NOS exhaust flames to light a 17th bday cake for Burnout Paradise. Full confession out of the way early: this series was perfected with Burnout 3, but Paradise was a highly brilliant open-world extension of. In addition to cleverly dividing cars and events into class disciplines (road rage, stunt, speed, etc.), I loved the iconic DLC car inclusions, like a Ghostbusteresque Ecto-1 and a truly McFly (read: hovering) DeLorean.

Hogwarts Legacy
You know the drill. A Potterverse game like this comes along that’s quite a phenomenal and surprisingly good open-world recreation of Hogwarts, then I make a pun with the word wizard in it. It’s not a magical moment. The game is, though.

The sexiest, most purple thing since Prince passed is now going for cheaper. I personally think it’s one of the best colours in the range. I mean, look at it—it’s basically Grimace with buttons.
