<![CDATA[ Latest from GamesRadar+ AU in Focus-entertainment ]]> //344567.top 2023-08-09T18:00:47Z en <![CDATA[ Latest from GamesRadar+ AU in Focus-entertainment ]]> The signature move in Deck 13's action adventure is the sand slide. Endowed with the power of a mysterious otherworldly being, your avatar can skate along reams of desert as if riding an invisible sno♋wboard, cresting dunes and banking into turns apparently by making the sand particles move beneath their feet. As a form of cruising around an open world, it has instant appeal. You slide for the fun of it, just because it's smooth and flashy. At least that is until you start to wonder𝓰: why doesn't Atlas Fallen make more of this?

Fast Facts: Atlas Fallen

Release date: August 10, 2023
Platform(s): PC, PS5, Xbox Series X
Developer: Deck13
Publisher: Focus Entertainment

After an on-rails introduction to your skiddy new skill, you may expect a string of exhilarating chase sequences scattered throughout, or slopes that let you gather speed to launch yourself across the land. But other than looking stylish, sand slid🍷ing is really only another way of running – functionally identical to the sprint action your character performs when they aren't on a dirt surface. It's both 🦋disappointing and indicative of a game that, once you scrape away the topsoil, has little of note to offer.

The movement of your customisable character, whether sliding or not, is one of few standout features. Once Atlas Fallen's plot acquaints you with a magic gauntl🎉et that houses the spirit of the enigmatic and powerful Nyaal, you'll be sliding, double jumping, rolling, and air dashing with agile ease. You'll also be fighting with an axe and a whip conjured from sand (a combination unabashedly inspired by God of War), yanking yourself towards hostile monsters, known as wraiths, before delivering crispy combos. Yo💯u may even detect hints of Bayonetta's showy poise in your actions.

Don't get too excited by the A-list name dropping, though, as Atlas Fallen struggles to convert these skills into interesting things to do. As an open-world game (although technically it's split into a handful of separate areas that you access one at a time), it's remarkably unambitious in structure. NPCs 🐟no sooner say 'Hello' than ask for favors, which see colourful markers plopped on the map. Slide on over and more than likely you'll need to dispatch a sizable wraith before heading back for a reward. Sometimes a marker is surrounded by a big circle, which of course means you have to search within its circumfer🌱ence for some hidden thing or other. It's all about as fun and varied as it sounds.

The other key trick the gauntlet places up your sleeve is called 'Raise', which means you can pull great chunks of stone up from the ground. Well, specific chunks of stone marked with a blueꩵ glow that invariably serve to bridge a gap, making its use heavily prescribed. Still, it does help to reveal paths for exploration, and there's pleasing verticality in the landscapes when you do, providing some mild platforming🔯 challenges. Then again, most of the treasure chests you find at the end of the rainbow either contain a bit of cash or if you're lucky precious artefacts that, oh yes, you can sell for a bit of cash.

As in many routine open-world gamওes, then, you go about tidying up the map by charging from one errand to the next like a courier without a bike. Even that's not always straightforward, though, since the map of this three-dimensional world is so obstinately two-dimensional – reach your marker and you may suddenly realise you need to be much higher or lower, which requires a very different route. Given how much Atlas Fallen is about navigating the contours of its environments, it's also dismaying to be partnered with a camera that can't pan up to a steep angle, that your smooth moves glitch on slopes, and that there's aggressive pop-in when you're racing about.

Combating frustration

Indeed, a very ordinary execution of very ordinary ideas pervades Atlas Fallen, not least its combat. Despite initial promise, it's a slippery pig to get to grips with, as if its systems want to evade your grasp. The camera and lock-on are chief culprits, both requiring constant micro-management to maintain any coherence. Whatever you train your sights on, you can bet it'll bolt off a✅cross the arena, leaving you gawping from afar as its mates hammer you from behind. The presence of little warning arrows for offscreen attacks is some relief, but it's difficult to focus on those and signals coming from visible enemies at the same time. Nor does it help much when a large wraith smothers the entire view.

The other problem is a parry system that's as baffling as it is essential. After 20 hours I'm still barely any the wiser how to time it correctly. Reacting to red sparks that signify an incoming attack works sometimes but not others, and even though you'll get used to facing the same kinds of wraiths over and over (there are only some 16 in all), you may remain as likely to get trashed by a familiar combo as ace it. When compared to a recent peer such as Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, this is, well, hard to defend.

Scrapping in Atlas Fallen isn't entirely without its pleasures, though, when you can make it work. Airborne combat can be maintained for satisfyingly long chunks of battles, using the whip and air dash to track hovering enemies. The ability to target and break individual body parts on big wraiths can make taking them down a worthy proposition too. There's also decent potential for customisation – not so much with weapons (only a pair of hard- and fast-hitting fists joins the original pair) – but in a wide range of special moves you can earn then choose between. To the extent the combat 🐼did eventually click for me, it was because I was able to use these abilities to avoid or mitigate the damage when the camera or parry system fought against me.

The way these abilities are implemented, in fact, is the one fresh idea in Atlas Fallen, and it deserves to reside in a better game. During fights, you gather 'momentum', which increases the damage you dish out and receive. But also, the longer it grows, the more of your equipped perks and attacks are activated, with the most powerful of all comin♛g into play when the momentum bar is near full. At any time, however, you can empty all momentum into a 'shatter' attack that dam🦂ages everything nearby. Deciding when to unleash this barrage and when to keep accumulating is a neat little risk-reward mechanism.

Empty promises

If Atlas Fallen does build some momentum of its own here, though, it's never long before it slips back into suffocating ordinariness, and nothing highlights the point more strongly than its surrounding fiction. Setting, lore, plot, characters, you name it – they're all cliched, hackneyed, and lifeless. The main thrust of the story about an evil god that watches over the desolate land produces scenarios that would slot into any shrugged up fantasy confection. Vapid discussions with NPCs, meanwhil⭕e, see them shift their opinions the moment you suggest an alternative. The script is also robotically dull, matched only by the flat voice performances.

What grates most here is the absence of any tangible commitment or substance. At one stage, you rescue a group of people from their decaying home and bring them to a new settlement. Soon you overhear the refugees complaining about not being we🌟lcome, an𝕴d locals saying things like, "I do hope they'll contribute to our little society." It's an attempt to dip a toe into modern debates on immigration, but it doesn't push on to anything more thought provoking beyond such throwaway observations.

This is Atlas Fallen in a nutshell, though. It isn't a disaster. It's proficient in some respects, adequate in others, and manageable at worst. But that leaves a creative void in its world and the way you interact with it that calls into question the value of the whole endeavour. If you're hankering for yet another open-world action adventure, particularly for its co-op play, maybe you'll extract some joy from this sandbox. Otherwise, let it sl🍃ide on by.

reports that 25 of Daedalic's roughly 90 employees will be affected by the news. Daedalic says (quoted here through Google Translate🐓) that "we value each and every member of our team and it is important to us that the transition goes as smoothly as possible. Therefore, we will support our former employees in finding new opportunities within our network."

The report also says that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Daedalic's other Lord of the༺ Rings game - which received over €2 million in funding from the German go🧔vern🍎ment - is ending development.

Daedalic's main stཧudio is located i𒐪n Hamburg, Germany. In 2015, it opened a new studio in Dusseldorf, and in 2018, opened an additional studio in Munich. Both satellite studios were shut down in 2021. In 2022, Daedalic was acquired by French publisher Nacon.

Gollum was initially announced in 2019 for launch in 2021, and was delayed numerous times until it finally launched last month. It instantly became the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:worst-reviewed game of 2023, prompting an apology from the studio and a 🐲promise of improvement patches, which remain in development.

Prior to Gollum, Daedalic had primarily been known as a developer of point-and-click ad🔴venture games in the vein of classics like Monkey Island. The Deponia series was a particular standout, running for years to satisfy the underserved fans of an often-dormant genre. The survival and crafting-themed spin-off, Surviving Deponia, remains in development at externa♉l studio AtomicTorch.

Daedalic has been growing its brand as an indie publishing label for years, and it seems that will be the core o🔥f its business from here on. The company has published well-regarded indies like Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, Barotrauma, Inkulinati, and many more. Daedalic tells GamesWirtschaft that it has "eight promising releases" set to launch this fiscal year.

Game devs around the industry sympathized with Gollum's poor reviews at launch.

EA CEO Andrew Wilson will continue to preside over both divisꩵions, so it's perhaps best to think of this as an internal business restructuring rather than a full-on de-merger. Wilson says in the that "this evolution of our compa🐼ny continues to empower our studio leaders with more creative ownership and financial accountability to make faster and more insightful decisions around development and go to market strategies."

EA Sports will be headed up by Cam Weber, and as reports will continue to oversee everything from F1 and Super Mega Baseball to the usual Madden, NHL, and FIFA - now 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:EA Sports FC - releases. Not every sports-adjacent title will be under that banner, however, as Full Circle, the studio behind 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Skate 4, will be part of EA Entertainment.

EA Entertainment, then, is what we'd generally have called the majority of the publisher's output as EA Games. Laura Miele will be the overall head of EA Entertainment, with groups of studios reporting to other sub-executives. Vince Zampella will continue to lead Respawn and DICE, while Samantha Ryan will continue to run "leading lifestyle franchises and blockbuster single-player experiences" - meaning everything from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mass Effect 5 and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dragon Age 4 at BioWare to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Sims 5 at Maxiꦐs. Jeff Karp will similarly continue to head up EA's moꦬbile division.

This comes on the heels of reports that BioWare's making plans to give its Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO to a separate, third-party studio. Hopefully this all means that EA's studios will be able to focus on making the types of games they're best at.

Peering down on a battlefield and seeing an army ge💜tting massacred beyond belief and knowing "oops, I did that" will really make one feel horrendous. While smaller in scope, Aliens: Dark Descent is g💃unning for this same terrifying feeling of helplessness.

Fast Facts

Developer: Tindalos Interactive
Publisher: Focus Entertainment
Release date: June 20, 2023
Platform(s): PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One

Th🐬e new real-time strategy game from developer Tindalos Interactive puts you in control of a group of space marines, armed to the teeth, fighting tooth and nail against Xenomorph horrors. It would've been easy to look at Dark Descent's tactical trappings and wonder what possessed Tindalos to take the series in such a direction, but the tactical action has a chokehold of suspense on you from the jump.

Fight to survive

You'll command your squad of marines into dark caverns and dingy corridors, peering into rooms and just praying there aren't a couple Xenomorphs there waiting for you. Every foot forward feels like rolling the dice, gambling with the lives of your squad as they press on to encounter the unthinkable, and then reacting in a ﷽split second when a Xenomorph inevitably appears and charges full pelt at your squad.

Aliens: Dark Descent's action is pulse-pounding. As I maneuvered from one claustrophobic environment to🌜 the next, I could barely take my eyes off of the motion tracker. As soon as something out there moves – whether that's towards or away from you – it's time to hunker down and prepare for the worst. Just one Xeno ambushing your squad can instantly render a marine dead, so you're constantly on the lookout for any threat.

You can command marines to use abilities like overwatch on a particular area, placing a mine to block a route, or setting up a lethal sentry turret. These are key to survival, but they're also a limited resource, hinging on a rech💙arging meter. This means that while firepower can feel overwhelming against the aliens, it&ap🎃os;s also neatly stunted – you're always thinking about saving some gas in the tank for the next encounter.

The hordes are where everything comes to a terrifying head. Every now and then you'll get a notification that a horde is on their way to disembowel your marines, and you've got roughꦯly 20 seconds to prepare for arrival. Palms get sweaty real quickly here, as you'll have to find a good point to defend, and pray you've got enough ammo, turrets, grenades, and special abilities to see out the Xenos. It's a randomized element you can never truly predict, and works wo♛nders for making Aliens: Dark Descent feel genuinely threatening.

Sadly though, boss battles do unravel this tension. Occasionally, a mission will throw an elite enemy at you, but it'll warn you that pressing a button of interacting with a terminal will trigger said fight. Knowing the fight is coming sort of takes the wind out of its sails, but on the other hand, the boss fights are near-impossible to overcome if you haven't already planned for them. Alien🦹s: Dark Descent is sort of caught between a rock and a hard place here, and as a result, the boss battles areꦿ a little jarring to the pacing of a mission.

Down time

Aliens: Dark Descent is so much m🤡ore than just pressing forward and shooting. Every marine has a 'Stress' meter that can 🦂increase for a myriad of reasons. Did they just shoot a Xenomorph in the face, get splashed by its acidic blood, and see its friends come out to play on the mini-map? They're really stressed now, and it's up to you as the commander to manage that stress level and literally stop them from freaking out.

To do this, you need to create a Safe Room. Having your soldiers weld a door shut is all well and good for halting a Xenomorph, but if you weld shut every entrance to one room, you'll create a space where your squad can take a breather and recoup their mental strength. It's a brilliant and original feature that makes you stop and consider your🍸 squad of toughs as a little more human than just walking guns.

This also feeds back into the management aspect of Aliens: Dark Descent. Tindalos takes a page out of XCOM's book and makes you consider your soldiers after a mission. If they're overly 𓃲stressed, they'll need 🧜treatment in the trauma center, while a wound will take days to recover in medical, taking them out of subsequent missions. It's an extra layer of complexity which works to make the marines under your command feel like more than an expendable resource.

Unfortunately though, the writing of Aliens: Dark Descent is just plain poor. We're playing as Deputy Administrator Maeko Hayes, teaming up with space marine toughs like Jason Harper. There's incredibly little depth to these characters, especially the marines, who talk with their chests puffed out and like every interaction is a battle to💖 be overcome and won. Dark Descent feels like it wants to take after Aliens' bro-tastic writing of its marines, but there's not enough depth here to make individuals shine through.

There's a neat idea at the outset of Aliens: Dark Descent though. Horror always has its 'idiot' characters, people who do things that go against all sense and logic in the heat of the moment, and the Aliens series is no exception to this (Aliens' Burke locking himself away from the only people who can save him springs to mind). Dark Descent actually has us playing as this idiot trope, as the game begins with Hayes mercilessly opting to laun꧃ch rockets a♌t every ship in the vicinity after a Xenomorph outbreak, just in case they're infested.

They are, in fact, not infested, and Hayes realizes this pretty quickly. One of these ships is the Otago, which is your base of comman🍬d for the rest of Dark Descent, immediately putting Hayes at ground zero of her error. It's a really good narrative point, twisting that idiot trope to put you in the command chair of the role for a change. 𝓰It's a shame nothing else in Dark Descent's story comes close to this level, but it's a nice setup nonetheless.

Aliens: Dark Descent is a surprisingly inventive new strategic take on the series, bringing fresh ideas to the party with stress levels and hordes, while borrowing from XCOM's action and the movies' air of pure dread. The writing and characters fall woefully short of this high bar though, and boss battle work to sadly undo a lot of the tension Dark Descent brilliantly 🅠establishes. In its moment-to-moment gameplay though, Dark Descent is a really fun time.

Starring Vikings' Clive Standen as Lieutenant Titus, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 sees you "embody a Space Marine, a superhuman warrior who protects humanity from untold horrors, in brutal🅰ly efficient third-person action".

"Expec⛄t the distinctively fast and fluid game feel from best-in-class studio Saber Interactive - the team and engine b🧸ehind World War Z," the blurb teases. Check out the action yourself in the trailer below:

That's not all we found out on Thursday night, either; the Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Collector's Edition is now available to pre-order. For $250 / £230 you'll get the game on the platform of your choice, as well as a steelbook cover, a 🌠64-page book detailing the art and making of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, and a 21 cm resin statuette of Lieutenant Titus fighting a Tyranid.

Evil West, the latest game from Shadow Warrior developer Flying Wild Hog, offers simple pleasures. Its sci-fi and horror-laced wild west setting gussies up a very straightforward combat-heavy action experience – one which is heavily influenced by the original God of War trilogy, right down to the treasure-chest-smashing animation.

FAST FACTS: Evil West

Evil West screenshot — (Image credit: Focus Entertainment)

Release date: November 22, 2022
Platform(s): PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One
Developer: Flying Wild Hog
Publisher: Focus Entertainment

Evil West presents a beat-em-up toy box that sets you up with arenas full of monsters to kill, and lots of tools for smashing, shooting, and burning them to a crisp. It's a one-trick pony: There collectibles to hunt for and the occasional puzzle that to create a sense of pace, but it's all punc✨hing, all the time in Evil West. There are times when you may wish for a more balanced experience, but if you approach Evil West as a v♛ehicle for pure beat-em-up pleasure it has a lot to offer.

A new take on the old west

Evil West follows Jesse Rentier, a large, angry cowboy w🌸ho happens to be the ace agent and heir-apparent of a secret, family-run government vampire killing agency called the Rentier Institute. When a group of vampires threatens open war with humanity, starting with the Institute, Jesse picks up a one-of-a-kind electric gauntlet and smashes through hordes of monsters to stop them.

The story and dialogue is pure B-movie fare, in the worst way𒁃. Evil West is full of plot holes, predictable twists, and superficially drawn characters who yell and swear at each other, but develop little to no meaningful personality. Flying Wild Hog adequatel♋y dresses and binds the levels together, but the cutscenes are made for skimming, not reading deeply.

Even without a compelling story, Evil West manages to cultivate an interesting and surprisingly fresh aesthetic within the boundaries of the western, retro sci-fi, and horror tropes it pulls from. Its levels run the gamut of conventional western settings – train heists, swamps, one-horse towns, and oil fields – but they're often decorated with grindhouse horror flair. You may stumble upon a corn field full of vampiric leeches, or a train station crawling with spiders and covered in their webs. (FYI: You can turn off the aesthetic spiders in settings if they fre🐟ak you out.)

Likewise, many of the enemy designs riff on conventional western and monster movie staples with enough flair to feel like something you haven't seen before. Many of the enemies feel like genre staples, including Half-bat vampires, zombie-eꩵsque wretches, and western-style bandits, but they have a unique design all their own, and some have an inventive aesthetic spin that makes them a little more interesting to look꧑ at. All the gore and bugs create a mildly gross, mucky veneer that blends well with those western settings. Throw in an occasional retro-futurist Tesla coil-powered generator or a gigantic zeppelin, and you have a world that stands out as different and interesting, even if it isn't well defined.

Big Beat-Em-Up Energy

Jesse isn't here to take in the sights, though. You spend most of your time in Evil West clobbering waves🔯 of vampires and other monsters in large, open combat arenas. Following Jesse with a very familiar over-the-shoulder camera, the hunter brings a constantly expanding arsena🧸l of weapons to every fight, giving you lots of options for how to deal with every combination of enemies you encounter.

You'd expect a cowboy to rely heavily on a pair of six-shooters, but Jesse's main weapons are his fists. Not only does he have a mean right hook and an uppercut that launches enemies into the air, but he uses his electrified gauntlet to dash over to enemies or pull them close for a flurry of punches that will kill or do substantial damage. He has the pistol too, and a shotgun, and a rifle, and a flܫamethrower, and a host of other destructively-entertaining weapons. Many of these are, in essence, special moves regulated by cooldowns. A couple of long-range weapons, like his rifle, give you the☂ ability to hit enemy weak points at distance, which both prevents the attack and generates a useful healing orb.

All of these weapons and attacks make Jesse feel incredibly powerful. Especially in the early levels, you can handily crush large numbers of enemies simply by wailing on them until they start to glow – prompting you to trigger a stylish finishing move. Over time, the enemies power up to match your own and come at you in larger numbers, pushing you to use your skills strategically to prev꧒ent at𝓰tacks and take out foes in an order that limits their capacity to wail on you right back.

As you find gold and earn experience, those weapons and abilities gain more powerful wrinkles that make them more effective when used tactically. For example, you can upgrade Jesse's shotgun to deal extra damage when it's used to interrupt an attack, or learn an ability that slams enemies you launch in the air back down for extra damage. By the end of Evil West, you have a large number of powerful weapons and abilities to cycle t𒉰hrough before going in for a conventional punch.

That sounds overwhelming, but most of these moves are mapped to a button press, or a simple (often situational) combination of a movement and an attack. These fights feel tactical, but don't require you memorize combos like in a fighter or technical action game like a Sifu or 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Bayonetta 3. The fights in Evil West never feel mindless, but you can often punch and shoot your way through, intuitively picking your moves step-by-ste💃p based on what feels right in the moment.

Between fights, Jesse walks from arena to arena, exploring cracks and crevices along the main path to uncover hidden rooms with money for upgrades, chests with cosmetics, and collectibles that offer small sni♔ppets of lore. There isn't much to these in-between areas. You get the pleasure of finding loot and upgrading your gear as you go, but without a strong story the narrative interludes aren&ap🔯os;t as engrossing as they could be.

Every once in a while you'll run acr🃏oss a small puzzle or an on-rails mine cart sequence, but they never feel challenging or engaging enough to feel like more than a means of breaking up a formula that teeters on monotonous. Luckily t𓃲hough, there's just enough exploration to break up the combat sequences and give you a little breathing room without overstaying their welcome.

Punching with Friends

There's one last little wrinkle worth mentioning with Evil West: You can play the full game with a friend in online co-op. On the one hand, Evil West's large, bountiful arenas full of very punchable enemies makes perfect sense as a two-player beat-em-up – especially when Jesse gets more powerful and has abilities that affect groups of enemies, making it easy for you to ಞchain attacks together. On the other hand, co-op comes with a lot of technical caveats.

For starters, only the host player makes story progress, so there's a disincentive for people to be their friends' player-two ins🧔tead of playing alone. On an aesthetic level, there's no secondary character for the second player, so you just have two Jesses running around. It's not really a technical problem in two-player mode: With the over-the-shoulder perspectiv🧔e, you'll never confuse your Jesse and your friend's, but the lack of meaningful distinction makes co-op feel poorly defined.

Regardless of how you choose to play it, Evil West feels like the best version of the AAA "B-tier game" that we don't see as often as we used to. It's not technically polished and I wouldn't call it innovative, but it's mechanically solid and comes equipped with a lot of fu👍n ideas that ꦚmostly pan out. Sometimes you just need a game to punch out some bad guys; it can feel familiar and straightforward, just as long as the punching feels good. Evil West fills that specific, but very relatable need quite well.

The Alters

Release date: June 13, 2025
Developer: 11 bit studios
Game Pass: Yes

Jan Dolski is t෴rapped and alone on a far-flung planet. It doesn't help that everyone he's stuck there with is doing his head in. But wait, didn't we say he was alone? That's right – he's trapped alongside clones of himself, which he's forced to keep creating in order to have more hands to help with the escape attempt. The device can allow him to alter key decisions in his life to create new versions of him with different skills, but, naturally, that can cau🐻se emotional conflicts as well.

Game Pass: Yes

One of the most anticipated new dating sims is heading to Xbox this June, and it will also be available on Game Pass.

There are over 100 characters for you to woo in Date Everything and multiple endings for you to explore and unlock. It looks like it will be hours of fun, and personally, we can't wait to see if we are compatible with our fridge.

FBC: Firebreak

Developer: Remedy Entertainment
Release date: June 17, 2025
Game Pass: Yes

Fresh off the back of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Alan Wake 2's Lakehouse DLC, Remedy Entertainment has revealed the studio's fir🐽st multiplayer shooter, FBC: Firefight. Set in the world of Control, FBC: Firefight will task players with teaming up to defend the 🍬surreal Oldest House from supernatural invaders. A co-op shooter may be the last thing you'd expect from Remedy, but from what we've seen of the game's Left 4 Dead 2-style horde combat and wacky guns, another trip to the Bureau seems like an easy sell.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4

Developer: Iron Galaxy Studios
Release date: July 11, 2025
Game Pass: Yes

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 are ꧟making a comeback this year, with a shiny re-release that brings additional skaters, new parks, and fresh tricks to the experience, along with plenty of music tracks to shred to on your preferred board.

Developer: Tripwire Interactive
Game Pass: TBC

The king of zombie horde shooters is back. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Killing Floor 3 is the next instalment in Tripwire's legendary FPS series, and it's got more zombie-blasting bullet-busting action than you can shake an AK-47 at.

Developer: Lenzee
Game Pass: Yes

We've been waiting for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:more Wuchang: Fallen Feathers news since its reveal in 2024, and last October's Xbox Partner Showcas🍸e delivered.

With a day one Game Pass launch.

Tales of the Shire

Release date: July 29, 2025
Developer: Wētā Workshop

In the new Xbox game you'll get to live out your hobbit life as you farm, cook, and throw dinner parties for the rest of the folk in Bywater. The concept of Tales of the Shire alone has the potential to make it one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Lord of the Rings games that we've seen in recent years. However, during our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Tales of the Shire preview, we did notice that it🗹 wasn't quite perfect ye🔴t and that it still is a bit fetch-quest heavy. Hopefully, we'll see Tales of the Shire reaching its true hairy foot potential come July 2025.

Grounded 2

Release date: July 29, 2025
Developer: Obsidian Entertainment
Game Pass: Yes

Surprise! If you thought Obsidian had its hands full with The Outer Worlds 2, here's a twist: it's had 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Grounded 2 cooking this whole time, and we'll be able to jump into its minituarized adventure as soon as next month. From its debut trailer, it looks like we'll𝔉 be exploring far beyond The Backyard – and we'll have buggies to explore the sequel's new park setting. It all looks very promising, although it won't be a walk in the park – Obsidian has teased something that speaks to the player on their journey, and it's waiting for the right time to strike. Best not to t🐽hink about, maybe?

Hell is Us may just be one of the most stylish upcoming Xbox games on the horizon.

Discover secrets and hack your way through enemies and you seek to uncover the truth of the land. There’s no map, compass, or quest tracker marker here so you’ll have to dive fully into the unknown.

Release date: September 23, 2025

A classic extraction shooter is getting a fresh lick of paint, as Bungie pivots from its Destiny 2 and Halo IPs to revive this 90s gunslinger.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

Release date: October 2025
Developer: The Chinese Room
Game Pass: TBC

The original game was a slightly ramshackle but beloved cult classic that was more or less ‘Deus Ex but Vampires.’ This takes the same idea but updates it to a modern setting where 'The Masquerade' - the rules by which vampires stay hidden - has been broken upheaving the brittle peace between numerous factions, each with different skills and abilities. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Vampire: The 💟Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 is about crafting a supernatural character whose abilities shape your approach to its open missions - you can fight, snea🦄k, or talk your way through a world of turf wars, ꦡsubterfuge, and political machinations with your actions affecting everyone around you.

TBC 2025

Cronos: The New Dawn

Release date: TBC 2025
Developer: Bloober Team
Game Pass: Yes

Bloober Team is back and, feeling fresh from its time with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Silent Hill 2, it has another 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming horror game in the works for us. Cronos: The New Dawn feels like the Dead Sp𓆉ace 2 remake we haven't got yet, offering all the deep space terrors and grisly body horror a third-person shooter fan could ask for. Even better: Cronos looks set to come to Xbox Game Pass as a day-one entry, and with a Fall release date in the pipeline, get ready to celebrate Halloween in terrifying style.

High on Life 2

Release date: TBC 2025
Developer: Squanch Games
Game Pass: Yes

The zany and off-kilter High on Life packing some surprisingly fun FPS action in to go alongside its irreverent Rick and Morty-esque humor, silly gun designs packing personality and a dodge system emphasizing momentum. High on Life 2 continues to push things further in this direction, really leaning on that momentum with a reveal trailer that centers almost entirely around first-person skateboarding. Still packing plenty of strange weapons, we can't wait to see how speedy this colorful blaster 🦹can get.

Little Nightmares 3

Release date: TBC 2025
Developer: Supermassive Games
Game Pass: TBC

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Little Nightmares 3 is set to see the series return in another unsettling adventure, only this time it's being developed by The Quarry and Until Dawn developer, Supermassive Games.

Moonlighter 2 is the sequel to the 2018 action-RPG, Moonlighter. Coming from developer Digital Sun once again, the new entry sees you play an adventurer leading a double life not unlike the first game, only you'll be starting over with no coin to your name. Now stranded in a village known as Tresna, you'll set out in search of treasure to sell in the shop you run by delving into dungeons. Part shop management, part action-RPG, with a dash of roguelike elements, the follow-up looks like one to watch out for. We certainly loved the original experience - our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Moonlighter review speaks to that.

Clockwork Revolution

Release date: TBC 2025
Developer: inXile
Game Pass: Yes

A brand new upcoming RPG from the Wastelands team, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Clockwork Revolution w🥂as announced at Xbox Games Showcase 2023.

Release date: TBC 2025
Developer: Beethoven and Dinosaur

90s tunes, skateboarding, and the ravages of youth. That's the vibe Mixtape wants to encapsulate when it launches in 2025. Set against a soundtrack of veritable bangers, each one unlocking a core memory from the hazy days of youth, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mixtape is one for the nostalgic 80🌃s and 90s kids who still hold their battered old Walkman in the highest regard (as well as the skateboarding scars to prove their mettle). Life is Str🉐ange fans, look no further.

GTA 6

Release date: May 26, 2026
Developer: Rockstar Games
Game Pass: TBC

Rockstar has announced that GTA 6 has been delayed to 2026, but that hasn't changed how hyped we are for it. Bringing us back to Vice City and set in the present day, the latest Grand Theft Auto instalment is set to push the boundaries of open world game design, leveraging the power of the Xbox Series X to deliver a crime story led by new ༺protagonist Lucia – a criminal who is trying to survive the chaos of the sunshine state.

TBC 2026

There are No Ghosts at the Grand

Release date: TBC 2026
Developer: Friday Sundae
Game Pass: Yes

A hotel renovation game with a musical twist, There Are No Ghosts at the Grand, will follow a protagonist who's inherited a run-down hotel from their missing father. While renovating the hotel with a talking decorator gu🉐n – yes, you read th😼at right – you'll extend your decorative skills to the surrounding town, which seems to have a penchant for ska. There's just one catch: something fishy is going on, and if you're not careful while looking for your missing dad, "they will Wicker Man your ass". That's probably nothing – don't worry about it!

Animo

Aniimo — (Image credit: Pawprint Studio)

Release date: TBC 2026
Developer: Pawprint Studio
Game Pass: No

The pop tunes that score this introductory trailer are infectious, the star hero hoverboarding around a colorful world as they make friends with all manner of creatures. Somewhere between the likes of Pokemon and Palworld, Animo's big twist seems to come from the ability to actual control the critters you befriend by somehow transforming into them, exp💖loring the world from their perspective as you battle some much bigger but no less cute beasties in real-time (one is called an Alpha Tubster). Theℱ vibes are immaculate, and this looks like a world that'll be worth getting lost in as you seek to befriend and then become them all.

Mudang: Two Hearts

Release date: TBC 2026
Developer: EVR Studio
Game Pass: NO

What makes you feel rage? That's what is at the heart of this tonally intriguing Korean thriller that puts you into the tactical boots of a soldier and a scared office worker – and perhaps even simultaneously. While the so𝄹ldier does some brutal stabs and tactical FPS action, mixing in some sneaky elements via some rope climbing, the office worker must hide and evade a pursuer in a more mundane environment armed with only a shock gun. Weird nanotech-style science seems to underpin some of the conspiracy, as enemies embrace rage to throw our protagonists around like ragdolls. There's a cool aesthetic throughout it all. But what happens when we too embrace the rage?

Aphelion

Release date: TBC 2026
Developer: Don't Nod
Game Pass: Yes

The original Life is Strange developer has been busy off the back of Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, but its latest game seems to break from its home brand point-and-click narrative format. Made in collaboration with the European Space Agency, Aphelion looks like a stunning action adventure set on a hostile alien planet, where "tense steal﷽th gameplay" will be our bread and butter if we want to survive. The announcement trailer shows our player character crash landing on said planet, having to traverse unforgiving lan🌞dscapes in an effort to find someone named "Thomas". We still have loads of questions, but with a 2026 release window in its sights, we'll just have to keep an eye on Aphelion for now.

Beast of Reincarnation

Release date: TBC 2026
Developer: Game Freak
Game Pass: Yes

You might best know Game Freak 🌸for Pokemon, but Beast of Reincarnation is a different sort of monster battling entirely. Playing as Emma the Sealer in the year 4026, you must pursue the titular beast, which seems to be causing nature to run rampant in ways that are somewhat destructive – blight and corruption spreading as much as it brings bloom. Also in the mix are strange humanoid 🍌machines. Emma also looks to have a loyal wolf companion who will help out. Clashing blades means Emma takes the task into hand directly, but she'll have to do more than simply slay the beast to stop this force of nature. Will she be able to find balance with a land that wants to be restored? Get ready to scrap and find out for yourself.

Super Meat Boy 3D

Release date: TBC 2026
Developer: Team Meat
Game Pass: Yes

Ever wanted what Super Meat Boy would be like if it jumped from its two-dimensional roots into three dimensions? Don't expect a leap that's as game-changing as going from Super Mario Bros. to Super Mario 64, which is a good thing for fans of the brutally punishing precision platformer. The masochistic level design returns, only now in 3D, floating platforms harboring all sorts of𒀰 saw blades and other traps that'll turn Meat Boy into viscera, allowing yo✱u to try again instantly. In essence, this is Super Meat Boy with added depth as you move in and out of hazards, rather than anything too different.

Plague Tale Legacy Resonance

Release date: TBC 2026
Developer: Asobo Studio

So long to Amicia and Hugo - the new Plague Tale game features what looks like a new protagonist. Plague Tale Legacy Resonance looks like 🌃it's set in even more ancient times, with Roman soldiers strutting about despite inflections of modernity.

The wait for news was more than worth it after Fable started the Xbox Games Showcase 2023 off strong. Fable 4 sees the series' trademark British, tongue-in-cheek humo🐬r is returning, and we can't wait already. We've had our first look at the fantastical world of Albion as it stands in the new game, and with Richard Ayoade showing up as a hero-grabbing big boss, it's safe to say Playground looks set to impress us when it launches in 2026.

Developer: Skydance Media

One of the most exciting new Xbox Series X games of 2026 also happens to be one of the best 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming Marvel games as well.

Thunder Lotus really loves to bring the feels, and if Spiritfarer made you weep, At Fate's End looks set to make you bring out the tissue box all over again. The upcoming side-scrolling platformer shows two once-close sisters embroiled in a ♏bitter feud, set against the backdrop of a beautiful fantasy world that's "fractured" by the sisters' quarrel. Pitched by the developer as a "more intense, more action-driven game, but no less intimate" than the likes of Spiritfarer, we'll get to see what all the beautiful hand-crafted action is all about when At Fate's End launches sometime in 2026.

TBC

Persona 4 Revival

Release date: TBC
Developer: Atlus
Game Pass: Yes

Inaba is looking particularly luscious in our first look at the long-rumored remake of Persona 4. Where Persona 3's was titled Persona 3 Reload, Persona 4's gets a snazzy title in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Persona 4 Revival. We've only gotten a glimpse of Yu – the player character – getting to run around the fam🌳iliar locations in full 3D that looks to be evolving on the fidelity presented in P3R, but we already feel like going back to the town is a homecoming. TV imagery remains rife, of course, as the RPG party here explores shadow worlds within televisions. Yet, could the strange red imag🎀es on the sets in the trailer be more than foreshadowing the events we know. After all, with a title like 'revival', we wonder if there may be more story to eke out of how things end up with Inaba's small town murder mystery plot.

Call of Duty Black Ops 7

Release date: TBC
Developer: Treyarch
Game Pass: Yes

Call of Duty has been returning to grounded historical and present-day settings for long enough, w🐻hich is why it's great to see Call of Duty Black Ops 7 (phwoa, what a big number) returning to the inventiveness of a near-future mission. Introduced to some kind of guild that promises to protect people, perhaps some kind of PMC, we're shown that this time around it might be Fear itself that will have a grip on global warfare. Our squad of heroes suit up with future gadgets to hopefully put a stop to it – there are sleek new weapons, a little robot dog thing, invisibility, and jumps out of cool new dropships. Trippy imagery suggests a deeper dive into the weird, dream-like pseudo-horror sequences we loved in BLOPS 6. And yes, Zombies mode also appears to get a tease.

Atomic Heart 2

Release date: TBC
Developer: Mundfish
Game Pass: TBC

Atomic Heart 2 was officially revealed at Summer Game Fest Live 2025 with a trailer featuring Queen's Don't Stop Me Now.

Ark 2

Release date: TBC
Developer: Studio Wildcard
Game Pass: Yes

It's filled with colorful and fantastical creatures that interact with humans cautiously in a slightly otherworldly setting. It's not clear yet what kind of game it'll be, but there's clearly a threat from predators in this world too. Whatever form it eventually takes, it's clear that this upcoming Xbox Series X game is going to be a beauty.

Gears of War: E-Day

Release date: TBC
Developer: The Coalition
Game Pass: TBC

Gears is back, but it's not Gears of War 6 like you might have hoped for.

Eﷺxpect plenty of spy gadgets, some gloriously hybrid buildings, and some aliens along the way.

Routine

Release date: TBC
Developer: Lunar Software
Game Pass: TBC

Routine is a brand new survival horror game from developer Lunar Software. If that name sounds familiar, it's because Routine was actually announced a decade ago. The studio announced it, showed a little of its haunting sci-fi world to the public, and then disappeared from the face of the planet. We're happy Routine is back though, because between the low-fi tech you'll need to wield to survive, some genuinely awe-inspiring environments, and hellishly creepy androids, this looks like an unmissable horr𒈔or game. Routine doesn't have a release window, but it is set to launch on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xꦉbox Game Pass.

State of Decay 3

Release date: TBC
Developer: Undead Labs

The extraction shooter recently opened its doors for a second test, and has been steadily building momentum since – because, spoiler alert, it seems really good. Arc Raiders is currently the 澳洲幸🍸运5开奖号码历史查询:eighth most wishlisted game on Steam, and with just a few months to go until its long-awaited PS5 launch, it re꧑ally does feel like if anything can crack the highly competitive shooter genre, it's going to be Embark Studios.

Mina The Hollower

Developer: Yacht Club Games
Publisher: Yacht Club Games
Release date: October 31, 2025

The developer of Shovel Knight returns with this upcꦕoming PS game, and once again, they can't resist striking the earth! Yet what Shovel Knight did for 2D side-on platformers, Mina the Hollower, centering on a whip-wielding rodent, does for top-down Game Boy-style adventures like The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. Playing with conventions, the gameplay changes up now and then to have some more action-heavy set-pꦬieces. But for the most part, Mina will be questing whip in hand through dungeon environments. The big twist, of course, is her abilities as Hollower – she can burrow into the ground to pop up elsewhere!

Cairn

Developer: The Game Bakers
Publisher: The Game Bakers
Release date: November 5, 2025

Speaking of high, climbing adventure, Cairn finally has a release date of November 5. This has been one to watch since The Game Bakers – the developer behind Furi – revealed it last year. When we last caught up with the studio in January, Cair⛦n was described as "our most challenging production in terms of development complexity," – and if you've got an issue 🧜with heights, it might be just as tough to play.

TBC 2025

Cronos: The New Dawn

Developer: Bloober Team

Release date: TBC 2025

Cronos: The New Dawn is an upcoming horror game th𒆙at will be hitting the PS5 sometime in 2025.

Survive the nightmare, stop more destruction, and put on your big boy pants for this new thrill ride.

Mixtape

Developer: Beethoven and Dinosaur
Publisher: Annapurna Interactive
Release date: TBC 2025

Mixtape looks like the kind of game that makes you all 🍬shades of nostalgic. Inspired by coming-of-age movies and set against a backdrop of endless, lazy summers, this upcoming PS5 game has you "re-living the teenage riot before school's out forever". It's due out later in 2025, and even without a firm release date, I'm alread🧸y getting a little bit teary eyed thinking about Annapurna's latest.

Darwin's Paradox

Publisher: Konami

Publisher: Build a Rocket Boy

Since the initial reveal was shrouded in mystery, no platforms were announced, but we assume it's set to come to PS5.

John Carpenter's Toxic Commando

Developer: In-house
Publisher: Saber Interactive
Release date: TBC 2025

If gunning down zombies in a game co-created by a horror icon sounds like your idea of a party, boy does John Carpenter's Toxic Commando have a surprise for you. We first caught wind of it at Summer Game Fest 2023, and the announcement trailer is suitably chaotic.𒈔 From the spray of bullets raining down on legions of the undead to decidedly out-of-tune rendition of You Giv🦩e Love a Bad Name underscoring it all, this is one horde FPS game worth keeping an eye on as we await a more concrete release date.

Judas

Developer: Ghost Story Games
Publisher: Ghost Story Games
Release date: TBC 2025

BioShock creator Ken Levine has finally revealed his new project - Judas. With seriously strong BioShock vibes, Judas is a single-player narꦯrative title where you must try to escape a disintegrating starship. You must survive by either making or breaking alliances with the other people on the ship, your so-called worst enemies. You're playing as the titular Judas, who is described as "mysterious and troubled", and seemingly has powers in her left hand that she can switch out - again very Bioshock in space vibes all round.

Little Devil Inside

Developer: Neostream Interactive
Publisher: Neostream Interactive
Release date: TBC 2025

Little Devil Insi🌱de first began life on Kickstarter back in 2015. Fast forward five years later, and we see a debut trailer during the PS5 reveal stream with the news that it will be a timed exclusive. As an RPG with survival elements, Little Devil Inside is set in the "Victorian-like" era in a semi-open world.

Turned as an act of vampire terrorism during the 'Mass Embrace', you'll soon get caught up in vampire faction politics, where you're still just trying to deal with your new way of life. This is an RPG at its core, too, filled with player choices, a strong narrative, and branching dialogue optiꦗons.

Publisher: Vertigo Games
Release date: TBC 2025

Though this was first revealed for PSVR2, it's also on the way for Quest and Steam users too.

After not one but two teases at Summer Game Fest 2025, Resident Evil 9 – which finally has a name, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Resident Evil Requiem – was revealed at the end of the showcase. While we'll be returning to Raccoon Cit𝕴y, it looks thoroughly destroyed from the last time we were there: a giant crater dominates its horizon, while the city's iconic police station lies in ruins. The protagon🙈ist seems to be FBI agent Grace Ashcroft, whose past is tied heavily to the Remnant Hotel – perhaps a little too heavily, given we soon see her tied to a gurney and seemingly fighting for her life to escape. But the most exciting news of all is that Resident Evil Requiem will be launching on February 27, 2026, meaning there's not long to wait at all.

Tides of Tomorrow

Developer: DigixArt
Publisher: Deep Silver
Release date: Feb 24, 2026

The next game from Road 96 developer DigixArt, Tides of Tomorrow, is a choose-your-own-adventure-style adventure with a twist. Rather than leaving players to deal with their own decisions (s💝ee: terrible mistakes), Tides of Tomorrow syncs you up with other players – be they pals or streame🔯rs – and changes your story based on who you choose to follow. It's an interesting premise, so anyone looking for something genuinely fresh in the multiplayer scene should keep an eye out for more on this.

Publisher: Bandai Namco Entertainment
Release date: TBC 2026

Developed by Rebel Wolves, a new studio founded by The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Blood of Dawnwalker is a goth gamer's dream. It's a moody vampire RPG where you'll have to race against the clock and the sweet allure of power in order to save your family within the game's 30🃏-day and 30-night timeframe. So far, we've only seen a cinematic trailer and a small glimpse of gameplay for this title, but everything looks fantastic so far. Fingers crossed that we have a new hit on our hands!

Mortal Shell 2

Developer: Cold Symmetry
Publisher: Playstack
Release date: TBC 2026

The first Mortal Shell was pretty gnarly and goopy, a unique take on the soulslike genre that was all about butting heads with strange foes by using equally🏅 as strange powers – including hardening – switching powers to match the threat. Mortal Shell 2 dares to ask: what if things were even more metal? And there were guns? With an introductory metal song by Ben Sahar, performed by Beh♍emoth, this is like they injected Doom straight into the original game, all flames and fury as you tear about the oddest beasts you could imagine.

Beast of Reincarnation

Developer: Game Freak
Publisher: Fictions
Release date: TBC 2026

From the minds that brought us Pokémon, this new PS5 game will have us chaꦆsing a very different kind of monster. In Beast of Reincarnation, you'll play as Emma the Sealer in the year 4026. You must pursue the titular beast, which seems to be causing nature to run rampant in ways that are somewhat destructive. The game was revealed during the Xbox Games Showcase at Summer Game Fest 2025 and looks visually breathtaking. With clashing blades, a wolf companion, and a stunning world to explore, there’s a lot to look forward to here.

Code Vein 2

Developer: Bandai Namco Entertainment
Publisher: Bandai Namco Entertainment
Release date: TBC 2026

Thought Bloodborne was the only soulslike to load up on vampires and weird blood powers? Think again. The underrated Code Vein took a weightier, meatier, and distinctly gothic anime approach to the format. This direct sequel from Bandai Namco dials things up by adding timey elements to the mix, and even more over-the-top powers. Crunchy, weighty attacks that see your main characters transform mid-combat seem to be taking cues from the Scarlet Nexus – their more recent release – so we can expect Code Vein 2 to embrace quicker, more combo-heavy brawls while evolving the u🍨nique tone of the original.

End of Abyss

Developer: Section 9
Publisher: Epic Games
Release date: TBC 2026

Section 9 is bringing a spooky new isometric shooter in 2026. With goopy monsters serving a taste of The Last of Us alongside some creepy-cute animations circa Little Nightmares, End of Abyss looks like a survival horror nightmare with a sci-fi kick. The story is a little hazy at this stage aside from featuring a lot of bullets, gore😼, and deep space horror, but jud𒉰ging from the reveal trailer, this will be one for the classic survival horror fans to dig their teeth into.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword

Developer: Capcom
Publisher: Capcom
Release date: TBC 2026

With Nioh 2, Team Ninja really left their own mark on the soulslike genre – combining tricky clashes with powerful yokai with the ability to turn the tides with your own demonic powers. Nioh 3, ♏however, looks to be going beyond a straight sequel, embracing the improvements Team Ninja made to their own formula with Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, which imagined a supernatural world set in Chinese history that was their own riff on what FromSoftware accomplished with Sekiro. Here, it comes full circle, as Nioh 3 incorporating the greater mobility and exploration introduced in Wo Long into the world of Nioh 3.

Castlevania fans, this one's for you. Featuring all the 3D side-scrolling hack-n'-slash action you could wish for, Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement is an upcoming PS5 game on the way in 2026. It's already looking like everything a self respecting Victorian gothic fan could ask for: winding stone cas🌸tles, dramatic flowing capes, a lady in a fancy hat sitting atop a pile of human skulls… honestly, the cool Soulsy combat is almost a mere bonus to the sheer spooky vibes the reveal trailer gives off. We'd expect nothing less from developer ArtPlay, so the new Bloodstained game is definitely one to keep an eye on in the coming months.

Sea of Remnants

Developer: Joker Studio
Publisher: NetEase Games
Release date: TBC 2026

Any game introduced with its own folk song gets a pass in our books, and that goes double when pi🌳rates are🍬 involved. An adventure RPG set on the high seas, Sea of Remnants has opened pre-registration. Beyond that, we haven't heard too much about what's in store beyond ship-based battles and some sort of slot machine-wielding crab. Hopefully that last one's explained sooner rather than later, eh?

Romeo is a Dead Man

Developer: Grasshopper Manufacture
Publisher: Grasshopper Manufacture
Release date: TBC 2026

Revealed with a stylishly animated trailer, lashings of ultra violence, and a truly devil-may-care attitude, it could only be a new game from Grasshopper Manufacturer. Romeo is a Dead Man is the latest creation from Suda51, complete with hand-drawn animations, zombies, gore, and plenty of (bitten) tongue-in-cheek humor to boot. Our FBI-investigator protagonist Romeo Stargazer is as outrageous as his name in both manner and mayhem, tearing through zomboid enemies in the reveal trailer for a c💦haotic taste of the carnage in store when Romeo is a Dead Man launches in 2026… "maybe", apparently. If you like your games flashy, fun, and proudly pretty daft, this is one of upcoming PS5 game to watch.

Developer: Drinkbox Studios

Developer: Mundfish
Publisher: Mundfish
Release date: TBC

Look: managing to work the phrase "Atomic Heart 2" into your Atomic Heart 2 reveal trailer is a feat that's worth acknowledging. Soundtrack it to Don't Stop Me Now, and you'v🍒e already got a tone that's sillier than even the first game. We've got no release window for this upcoming PS5 game, but given the trailer's only just confirming it's in development, it cou🌃ld be a while before we get our hands on Atomic Heart 2.

The Cube

Developer: Mundfish
Publisher: Mundfish
Release date: TBC

As if Atomic Heart 2's reveal at Summer Game Fest 2025 wasn't enough, Mundfish also revealed The Cube – an MMO RPG set 🅘in the same universe as Atomic Heart. The premise is as simple as it is weird: a gigantic floating cube has appeared in the sky, and scientists are racing to uncover a reality-changing equation that's hidden within. The catch? There's all sorts of sentient life on its surface, and the cube itself – so big it has its own biomes – is constantly rotating. Multiplayer shooters are hard to crack, but this one really does sound as interesting as it does strange.

Lego Voyagers

Developer: Light Brick Studio
Publisher: Annapurna Interactive
Release date: TBC

Lego Builder's Journey might be one of the best Lego games you didn't play, which is why it's great to see the devs get the chance to build on the concept of puzzley, semi-realistic Lego action. Lego Voyagers centers on two tiny single square bricks – the really narrow ones – with a single eye sticker each. They roll and click around diorama-style areas that have all the sheen you'd expect from real-life Lego bricks. To progress, they'll need to put their 👍heads together to build paths forward, and sometimes literally as they connect t♑o the same objects, and you have to collaborate to get the results you need. It's a great new PS5 game to keep track of!

While it's thought to be in early development, an early tease suggests a far darker setting that could revolve around Europe's bloody 16th century witch trials. Sadly, there's a good chance we'll be waiting until 2025 and beyond for ౠthis one.

Developer: Colossal Order
Publisher: Paradox

Ah, the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elder Scrolls 6. The 37-second trailer 𒀰that blew the world's mind at E3 2018. The game that♛ we know nothing about beyond this same trailer, that is in development somewhere within Bethesda Game Studios along with Starfield. Because it is so far away from release, you can bet your bottom coin that it's going to appear - at some point - on the PS5 (although hopefully not whatever the PS6 could be).

Phantom Blade 0

Developer: Cruel Man Studio
Publisher: S-Game
Release date: TBC

If you're a fan of samurai swashbuckling and moody 𓃲feudal Japan as a setting, Phantom Blade 0 seems to be promising us both. The third person action title is yet to have a confirmed release date, but from what we've seen at the PlayStation Showcase 2023, your character has "66 days to live". What will he do with it? "Get my heart back," he responds.

Developer: Team Cloud
Publisher: Mundfish Powerhouse
Release date: TBC

Perhaps the gnarliest game of Summer Game Fest 2025, Ill has resurfaced after several years of cooking from developer Team Cloud. It comes with good news for horror fans: it looks gnarlier than ever, with its creature design leaning into body horror with zombified babies and – for lack of a better term – inside-out people. There was also a huge emphasis on reactivity to gunshots – shoot a humanoid in the leg, and it stumbles down for an execution. This has been on indie horror fans' radars for years, but fingers crไossed it's inching toward a release date now that it's 𝓰under the wing of Atomic Heart developer Mundfish's new creative label.

Update: The leaked Atomic Heart release date from yesterday is now official, with Focus ♕Entertainment releasing a new trailer co𝓡nfirming the date.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Atomic Heart, the upcoming sci-fi first-person shooter from Moscow-based studio Mundfish, is officially launching on February 21. are also available ꦆfor the game's three different versions: standard, Gold Edition, and Premium Edition. Pre-order bonuses are available for all three versions, but the latter two also include an "Atomic Pass" with somꦑe other goodies.

Original story follows...

Atomic Heart has seemingly leaked a February 21, 2023 release d🌼ate ahead of the official announcement.

Mundfish's uber-creepy sci-fi FPS take on a Soviet-era dystopia was previously pegged for a Fall 2022 release, but it was discreetly 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:delayed to 2023 back in September. Now, it seems we have an exact release date, though it'🦩s yet to be confirmed in any official capacity.

first reported the release date yeste♉rday, and Twitter user then mined the date from expected to make the news official tomorrow. Noted leaker also corroborated the leak, sharing what seems to be an official poster for the game's Premium Edition and related contents.

Atomic Heart takes place🏅 in a terrifying, alternate version of the 1950's in which the Soviet Uni🔥on developed highly advanced robotics and technologies during World War 2. Naturally, these aren't the kind of robots that can make the milk in your latte look like a pretty little oak leaf; no, these are the kind that want you and all of humanity dead, and they damn well look the part.

I've been transfixed by the absolutely nightmare-inducing creatures in Atomic Heart since the debut of its 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:"effing wild" cinematic trailer back in 2019. That said, its semi-recent 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:combat trailer proved that the debut title from Moscow-based developer Mundfish has a lot more to offer than just exceedingly creepy robots, and thankfully we'll have plenty of 🔯interesting weapons to fight back with.

While we wait for Atomic Heart, here are the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best sci-fi games you can play today.

]]> //344567.top/atomic-heart-seemingly-leaks-february-2023-release-date/ HJwprjhJtMvyRng9wKE7yD Wed, 02 Nov 2022 19:05:51 +0000 <![CDATA[ Latest from GamesRadar+ AU in Focus-entertainment ]]> The studio behind the first and seconꦐd Life i🌟s Strange games, Don't Nod, currently has eight games in development.

As revealed in the company's , in the second half of 2022, Don't Nod plans to "continue to develop its rich pipeline o⭕f eight original creations." This includes "five self-published games, one co-prod🐻uction with Focus Entertainment, and two with external studios Tolima and Tiny Bull, to be published by Don't Nod." All of the games mentioned in the results are scheduled to release between 2023 - 2025.

This shouldn't come as a surprise to fans of the studio, as earlier this year, Don't Nod revealed that it plans to release six games by the end of 2025 - to "capitalize on" the success of Life is Str🐻ange and Vampyr. It seems they've stepped it up even more, adding another two games to this upcoming release sched൲ule.

If you didn't know, Don't Nod is responsible for developing the first Life is Strange game, its sequel Life is Strange 2, and its short spin-off title The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit. The studio handed over the other games in the series - including 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Life is Strange: True Colors and Life is Strange: Before the Storm - to Deck Nine. They also developed a similar game called 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Tell Me Why exclusively for Xbox.

So, should we get our hopes up for another Life is Strange game from the Paris developer? The short answer is probably not. Back in 2021, it was rumoured that future Life is🦋⛦ Strange games will reportedly be made by Deck Nine. Con♔sidering the last few Life is Strange projects have been handled by Deck Nine, we'd be surprised if Don't Nod did go back to developing games for the series. But, who knows, maybe o💙ne of those games is Life is Strange 3 and we'll get to see more of Sean and Daniel Diaz in the future.

Need something to play while we wait for Don't Nod to release its games? Take a look at our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:games like Life is Strange list.

Mundfish slaಞpped a tentative fall 2022 release window onto Atomic Heart near the beginning of the year, which implied it would launch somewhere between September 1 and the end of the year. But now, Focus Entertainment has announced in a press release that it's publishing 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Atomic Heart, and in doing so, has sh🌜ared an update on🔯 its release window.

"Initially planned for 202♓2, the hectic and explosive Action-RPG is set to release this winter. Polishing and delivering a game of the highest quality is the priority of this talented team, with a specific launch date to be announced shortly."

Now, this is a little confusing. Focus says the game was "initially" due out in 2022, which would imply that's no longer the case, but it doesn't explicitly say it's been delayed. However, it also says it's set to release this winter, which seemingly narrows down the new release window to early 20꧂23, but again, it's not super clear. Luckily, it sounds like we'll get an actual release date soon.

The exact reason for the apparent delay wasn't specified, but back in June, (via ) claimed to have spoken with a developer working on Atomic Heart who said the game would likely be delayed to 2023 in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Mundfish, a Russia-bas🉐ed developer, later refuted the report.

Here are a whole bunch of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games of 2022 to look forward to.

But no matter how bleak things may appear outside, inside there is plenty to keep your mind occupied. There are massive blockbuster video game releases with God of War Ragnarok, Pokemon Scarlet and Vio🐓let, and something for everyone in-between.

Marvel is set to dominate the movie landscape with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, although it'll be facing stiff box office competition from DC's Black Adam and 20th Century Studios' 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avatar: The Way of the Water.

We've played A Plague Tale: Requiem and were so impressed that we drew a comparison to Naughty Dog's genre-defining 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us Part 1. This could be the surprise hit of the year.

Fall 2022: New Tales from the Borderlands
Developer: Gearbox Software | Publisher: 2K Games | Release date: October 21

Following the dissolution of the original Telltale games in 2018, we had all but given up hope of ever seeing a sequel to one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Borderlands games. Thankfully, Gearbox Software is set to deliver with New Tales fr✤om the Borderlands this October. We spoke with the developers to learn how this unlikely sequel is set to keep the best (and cut the worst) of the old Telltale formul🎶a.

Fall 2022: Goat Simulator 3
Developer: Coffee Stain | Publisher: In-house | Release date: November 17

Goat Simulator 3 is coming and we are not ready for the carnage it's going to unleash. Coffee Stain is so committed to the bit – that Goat Simulator is gaming's longest-running joke – and skipped the second installment to the series entirely. Here's the fಌunny thing we learned after playing it though: Goat Simulator 3 is a bigger and bolder sequel that has massively expanded on the ideals of the original game, all without diluting the humor at its heart.

Fall 2022: The Dark Pictures Anthology – The Devil in Me
Developer: Supermassive Games | Publisher: Bandai Namco | Release date: November 18

When Supermassive Games first announced its experimental anthology series The Dark Pictures, we didn't know what to expect. Since 2019 we've had 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Man of Medan, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Little Hope, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:House of Ashes – arguably some of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best survival horror games in recent years – and now the studio is preparing t🥀o launch the season finꩵale with The Devil in Me. We sat down with Supermassive to learn more about the H.H. Holmes inspired nightmare.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Fall 2022: Evil West
Developer: Flying Wild Hog | Publisher: Focus Entertainment | Release date: November 22

There's more to the Old West than 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Red Dead Redemption 2. Whether it's because of a lack of vision or the lingering impact of one of the澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: best open world games of all time, there are precious few titles exploring this setting, and it's a🌠 great shame.🦩 That's one reason we're so excited to play more of Evil West, the Devil May Cry-style vampire hunting game from the devs behind the Shadow Warrior trilogy.

Developer: Iggbymob | Publisher: Prime Matter | Release date: November 22

If you're over the age of 30, there's a high probability that you have fond memories of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best PS2 games, and occasionally long fღor a return to the blocky, uncomplicated AA action games that were so prevalent on the system. Well, for better or for worse, Gungrave G.O.R.E. is set to make that a reality – this may be the closest you'lღl ever get to finding a new PS2 game released for PS5.

Fall 2022: Crisis Core – Final Fantasy 7 Reunion
Developer: Square Enix | Publisher: In-house | Release date: December TBC

If you're getting ready for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth in 2023, then you should consider Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion as a vital detour. Square Enix is developing an ambitious remaster of one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best PSP games, and it's an essential play if you want to better understand Cloud's original FF7 adventure. Everything we've seen of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 7 Remake so far suggests that Crisi⭕s Core protagonist Zack Fair will play a bigger role than ever before, so don't skip this one.

Fall 2022: The Callisto Protocol
Developer: Striking Distance | Publisher: Krafton | Release date: December 2

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Callisto Protocol is undoubtedly one of our most anticipated 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming horror games of 2022, the spiritual successor to Dead Space we didn't know we needed. While we're yet to play the g𒅌ame for ourselves, we have had a behind-the-scenes look at brand new footage, and sat down with The Callisto Protocol's creative director Glen Schofield to learn more about this horrendously creepy look🌟ing project ahead of its release this December.

The GamesRadar+ Fall 2022 Preview hub will be updated all throughout September with new insight into the biggest video games, movies, TV shows, comic books, hardware and tabletop gaming releases that you can expect to see before the end of the year.

The Parisian company, which recently opened a subsidiary studio in Montreal, has six in-house projects on the go. They’re all expected to launch between 2022 and 2025. Announcing the news in a , Dontnod emphasised a commitment to its two great successe🔥s: Life is Strange and Vampy꧙r.

“In four years, ꧑our royalties have increased fivefold to reach a record level in 2021,” said CEO Oskar Guilbert. “This dynamic is notaꦜbly linked to the success of Life is Strange and Vampyr, which we intend to continue to capitalize on. It is therefore natural that we decide to accelerate our investments in the development capacities of new games that will follow in the same vein, both in the multi-project hub in Montreal and in the RPG hub in Paris.”

This year, the developer intends to ramp up production of the mysterious Project 8, a game in the “bouyant action-RPG segment”, made in partnership with Vampyr publisher Focus Entertainment. In Montreal, meanwhile, the company is building a mul🍒ti-project division “with a strong narrative component”, led by the creators of Life is Strange.

Despite lukewarm reviews on release, Vampyr is Dontnod’s biggest ever financial success, alongside Life is Strange 1, and has apparently enjoyed a second wind. With two million copies sold since 2018, and a further eight million free downloads via the Epic Store, the developer has a strong bﷺase of public awareness upon which to build a potential sequel. It has to be said, too, that Vampyr’s Spanish flu era backdrop has only become more relevant over time.

Notably, though, 2020’s narrative adventure game 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Twin Mirror hasn’t done so well,🌟 with Dontnod covering only 75% of its investments on the project: “In a market that is globally saturated by the end of 2021 and penalized by the sudden closur꧅e of the Chinese market, the company believes that Twin Mirror will only generate a marginal level of revenue in the future.”

Beyond iꦜts own projects, Dontnod is overseeing two more games as a publisher. One is Gerda: A Flame in Winter, an intriguing narrative RPG-type꧟-thing set during the German occupation of Denmark. And the other, just announced, will be based on a “minimalist universe” and developed by new Belgian studio Tolima.

Gosh, that really is a lot of stuff to be getting on with. It’s worth remembering that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Life is Strange 2 ended on a high, which bodes well f𒊎or the future.

Looking to board a hype train? Here are the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:2022 games we’re eagerly waiting on.
