On the Radar
On the Radar is a monthly GamesRadar+ series where we aim to dive deep into a game that's just been released. These are the new games that absolutely shouldn't be missed and these packages of articles explain exactly why.
After all, there's so much more to say about the games we're incredibly passionate about beyond the review - and that's where On the Radar comes in. We're talking about these big games as much as you are, and we want to talk about them with you.
Whether it's that one NPC we all love to hate, the quest that made it soar to the top of own our personal GOTY lists, or that one weapon that changed everything - we want to share what we're thinking about the games that matter to us, and hopefully you too.
We're also speaking to the developers of these games too, bringing in their insider intel on how the games, their characters, the stories and the gameplay mechanics came to be.
Want more discussions on your favourite new game? On the Radar has you covered.
