GoPro's latest promises to be the most accessible action cam yet, combining the guts of last year's model with new mounting options, simpler software and more
Black whole fun

When you hear 'action camera', you think GoPro - and the Hero12 Black is the new flagship, poised to clip onto helmets and handlebars the world over while also serving as a compact vlogging system and kid-proof family cam.

GoPro has brought back the same sensor first introduced on the Hero11 Black but made it even easier to use, adding HDR video, a 1/4in tripod thread and Bluetooth mic recording to the mix. So for the first time you can hook up your wireless buds to a GoPro, and it'll pick up what you say even if you're away tearing down a ravine.

Recording 5.3K video at 60fps for long periods could send older  GoPros into a heat-induced tailspin, especially in hot weather; but run times at maxed-out resolutions are improved, and the interface has been refined.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess - It's really not what you expect from a major publisher these days, but Capcom's curious blend of action, real-time strategy and tower defence is one of the most original games you'll play all year

It's really not what you expect from a major publisher these days, but Capcom's curious blend of action, real-time strategy and tower defence is one of the most original games you'll play all year.From its colourful costumes to a pastoral message of healing nature, Kunitsu-Gami is proudly Japanese in its inspirations. Your masked warrior is on a mission to help a divine maiden purge a mountain of an evil 'defilement'... but this is no Link/Zelda dynamic: you'll also rely on villagers to help you beat back monsters.
