Is the mighty Warhammer: Age of Sigmar Realms of Ruin really the most “epic fantasy RTS of all time”? We think so, and after you dive into our article you may well be as excited as we are – Warhammer fan or not – it does look pretty fantastic. 

We’ve reviewed Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, and we like that too, and the cantina is packed this month, with a huge look back at the history of Star Wars games. It’s time to get nostalgic, and maybe even get motivated and load up your favourite Star Wars classics. 

Dead Island 2 is here, and it’s brutally good, so is Age of Wonder 4, which is a powerfully addictive and beautifully made 4X strategy game with everything a fan could ask for.

Plus, in Tech we’ve collected up some of the most powerful gaming laptops around, tested them, and handed out some verdicts so you know where to look for your next dream machine.
