Some Wordles can be trickier than others, but whatever happens, we’re always here to help. Skip straight to another win with the answer to today’s Wordle if you need to, or use our hint for the May 14 (1060) game to give your own ideas a nudge in the right direction.
Wordle really made me work for the answer today. Every new line seemed to throw up grey letters more than anything else, and the few greens I had uncovered weren’t especially helpful. It took a fresh approach and just a slight dash of mild panic to find today’s Wordle answer.

Wordle today: A hint for Tuesday, May 14
A large amount of something. A dragon’s hoard of gold. A great accumulation of wealth. The act of gathering up or collecting a lot of valuables could …
Fortune’s Run is shaping up to be something special: a retro FPS blending immersive sim depth with pure boomer shooter speed, some of the best swordplay I’ve seen in a game, and a gloriously grungy ’90s sci-fi setting. But those aren’t the only lost arts Team Fortune is reviving: the two-person team just unveiled an absolutely sick new website.
I know what you’re thinking: “Website? How cool could it be? Besides grandpa, everyone advertises their games in portrait mode on TikTok dueted with ASMR footage of someone slicing up a bar of soap.” It may not represent today’s best marketing practices, but I love the way this page harkens back to an era of absurdly wordy magazine ads, like this original Half-Life spread that appeared in PC Gamer in the ’90s.

There aren’t many stories in the world of technology that could easily make it as a plot for a tense spy-thriller movie, but this one sure has all the right hallmarks for one. Last month, the US Justice Department carried out an authorised operation in which it neutralised a botnet, comprising hundreds of routers in homes and offices, that was used to carry out spearphishing and other credentials stealing. And it was achieved by using the very same malware as that by the botnet itself.
As reported by Ars Technica, the network was created by the officially titled GRU Military Unit 26165 (also known by the names Forest Blizzard, Fancy Bear, Sednit, and others), a state-sponsored hacking group that reported has direct ties to the Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff of …
William Murray Hawkins III, better-known as Trip Hawkins, has had a long and incredibly impactful career in games. Hawkins founded Electronic Arts in 1982, and led the company through its trailblazing first decade, establishing certain specialities like sports that the publishing giant was built on. Then Hawkins went on to launch the ill-fated 3DO, a powerful console kneecapped by a high price, before founding Digital Chocolate and spending the 2000s in casual games (like Mafia Wars).
Now, Trip’s back! Don’t get excited. In a move that has strong 69-year-old executive vibes, Hawkins has announced he’s joining a Web3 startup as co-founder and strategy chief. Games for a Living (GFAL) is based in Barcelona and all about that crypto, aiming to create experiences that can compete with…
Save your Wordle win streak with our fresh daily hint, designed to point you in the right direction without completely giving the game away. Although if you’d like to have the game given away you’re in luck, because the answer to the September 28 (831) Wordle is right here and ready to go.
Finding two greens early on should feel like a spot of good luck—it was just a shame they were surrounded by greys. And more greys. And even more greys. Today’s Wordle was less a case of finding the right word, and more about cobbling something together using the only letters I had left. Here’s hoping tomorrow’s game doesn’t cause as much trouble.

I reckon one of the benefits of being the director on multiple games is you can just give ’em crossover events without too much faff, and with Naoki Yoshida being at the helm of both Final Fantasy 14 and Final Fantasy 16, it makes an awful lot of sense to mash them together into one cool questline.
That’s exactly what’s happening in the critically acclaimed MMO later this year, with crossover quest series The Path Infernal giving us PC players a chance to get some tangential Final Fantasy 16 goodies down our gullets. We didn’t get a whole lot of info, but a video played during the London Fan Festival keynote showed the Warrior of Light going toe-to-toe with eikon Ifrit with some special Final Fantasy 16 dodges and moves thrown in, and even a glimpse of protagonist Clive Rosfield f…
Walking around on the planet Arrakis, also known as Dune, is a dicey proposition. Gargantuan sandworms are attracted by the rhythmic tremors caused by footsteps and quickly arrive to gulp down whoever is stomping around on the sandy dunes.
That’s where the sandwalk comes in, a method of dune traveling practiced by Arrakis natives known as Fremen. In his novel Dune, Frank Herbert describes the sand walk as making your footsteps “sound like the natural shifting of sand” to avoid alerting the sandworms. “Step… drag… drag… step… step… wait… drag… step…”
PC Gamer editor Wes Fenlon recently interviewed Funcom’s Joel Bylos, creative director of upcoming survival MMO Dune: Awakening, and asked if sandwalking would be a part of …
Do Kwon, former crypto darling and now fugitive, was arrested in Montenegro this March while attempting to flee to Dubai. The High Court in Podgorica, the Montenegrin capital, has now given approval for Do Kwon’s extradition, though whether he’ll be off to South Korea or the US, both of which have open arrest warrants for him, remains to be decided.
Do Kwon was the main player and public face of the TerraUSD stablecoin and the self-described “Lunatic” driving the Luna cryptocurrency. You can probably tell where this is going. The more-or-less overnight collapse of both caused a loss of around $40 billion on crypto markets and was the major factor behind the 2022 catastrophe-slash-contagion that saw FTX go under, with its founder Sam Bankman-Fried now facing a leng…
World of Warcraft: The War Within has launched—although, if you had enough dough to shell out for the early access, you’ve already been playing it for a few days. And while it’s early on in the expansion’s lifecycle (I’m about two-thirds of the way through the second zone myself, as a complete-all-side quests fiend) things seem to be going pretty well.
The expansion represents a few major gear-shifts from Blizzard, angling for more detailed storytelling with better villains, the ability to engage with most of its story content solo (yes, even raids) and the further development of evergreen mechanics like Warbands to shore up the game experience.
So far, so good. The game’s subreddit has quite a few early birds singing its praises already based on, quite literally, vibe…
Survival game Icarus launched back in December of 2021, and since then developer RocketWerkz has not been sitting idle. The studio has delivered an impressive number of small updates, missions, and tweaks to Icarus every single week, along with bigger expansions and features along the way.
While it’s been a minute since I’ve played Icarus, the latest update immediately solidified my weekend plans. Sorry, Diablo 4, your demons are gonna have to wait. I’m going fishing on planet Icarus.
The new update, called Galileo, adds a robust fishing system to the planetary survival game, including three types of fishing rods, 23 lures, fishing traps, and 53 different species of fish to catch in its lakes, rivers, and ponds. That’s a lot of fish. Challenge accepted.
