It’s a great job, but it can be challenging to review videogames like Elden Ring. You’ve got tight embargoes, a need to be fair in your critiques, and million angry fans ready to deliver a stream of vitriol if you score a popular release a point too high or too low. Normally, however, you don’t have to deliver your opinions in the middle of a wrestling ring as a group of large, sweaty men attempt to throw you over the top rope.

A tweet from Uno today suggests that this will be the start of a series of mid-match game reviews.
