Speaking with , art director Rasmus Poulsen is keen to draw a clear line between the developer's infamous bald assassin and the world’s most famous secret agent. “If Hitman is a single-minded killer and basically the bad guy of the game,” Poulsen says, “Bond is the hero.” It’s a surprisingly candid statement, esꦺpecially fr✨om a studio best known for letting players think like a villain.

This shift in perspective is shaping every layer of the new game. “That means we are much more focused on his journey as a character, and we are much more focused on saving the world,” Poulsen explains. In other words, don’t expect Bond to blend into the background or play puppet to the player’s every whim. 007 First Light ai🐓ms to provide a more cinematic, character-driven experience. Something that puts Bond’s story and personality front and centre.

IO Interactive CEO H🏅akan Abrak hammered home that point directly by comparing the two iconic characte꧃rs. While Agent 47 has always been something of a blank slate, an “empty shell,” as Abrak describes him, James Bond “is very much a personality.”

What does this mean in practice? While IO’s Hitman games thrive on cold efficiency and creative sandbox mayhem, 007 First Light looks set to offer a completely different kind of power fantasy. Bond isn’t just a tool. He’s a hero with opinions, emotions, andܫ a world to save.

For fans, this is a promise of a Bond game that goes beyond the gadgets and the glamour. IO Interactive wants to explore what makes James B🌱ond tick, what drives him to risk everything, and what it actually means to be the hero rather than the anti-hero. If they pull it off, 007 First Light could be the fresh take the Bond franchise has been missing for years.

007: First Light is planned for sometime in 2026, and it’s clear that IO Interactive is set on giving players a fresh spin on the Bond formula. Rather than simply ticking off classic spy tropes, the team wants to dig into what really makes Bond a hero. If they succeed, fans could be in for a much deeper, m🗹ore pers▨onal take on the iconic secret agent.

007: First Light isn't an Uncharted-style action game, but it's not just another Hitman game either: "We are leaning a lot on what IOI does best."

Proulx has now explained why prices were that high, and he blames a former 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Call of Duty developer.

"No excuse, of course, I should have been on this," he starts in a video posted to Twitter. "The🌳 second I got off that stage, I called Derek, our lead game designer, and I said, 'Derek, did you know we had an $80 bundle? This is news to me, like what the heck? That makes no sense.'"

ﷺNow, some of you may be alarmed if a director doesn't know how much players are being charged for bundles in his game. "Our former head of monetization, who happened to come from Call of Duty, was with us for less than a year and was very aggressive on the pricing," 👍Proulx alleges.

After Proulx's comments on the SGF stage about being "tired of playing the sa🦄me Call of Duty eve💜ry year," and the Splitgate Twitter account a current CoD developer before deleting the tweet, I would have thought he'd leave CoD out of it.

Proulx then claims that under this former CoD dev's influence, Founder's Packs were originally $100 and Battle Passes were $10, but he and and the lead game designer slashed them down to $60 and $5 respectively. Somehow, the $80 cosmetic bundle that has since been halved to $40, "slipped through the cracks."

He assures us all that "I fundamentally believe the best way, as a business, truly, to make money, is not to charge the play♚ers an egregious amount. It's to be generous, and thoughtful, and listen to feedback. [...] That is our philosophical view with Splitgate 2."

Splitgate 2 launched to "Mixed" reviews on Steam with players calling out the expensive microtransactions and the hypocrisy in criticizing Call of Duty but then adopting its same strategies and modes. So, whಌile Proulx continues to throw shade at CoD, he has at least listened to players regarding pricing.

Prouℱlx finishes by saying: "I'm sorry about the $80 bundle. It's crazy. It was a shock to me when I found out, and that's no excuse. But you can expect, just like we reduced prices yesterday from $80 to $40, that's going to be our philosophy going forward, is being player friendly, player first, we want tౠhis to be affordable."

In the meantime, catch up on everything that was announced at Summer Game Fest 2025.

The official patch notes from developer Sandfall Interactive just went live on , sho♋wing what's new and different in the beloved turn-based RPG. 1.3.0 first gives players the opportunity to take Simon on again after emerging victorious from what's arguably oꦉne of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's hardest challenges, in a change allowing fans to rematch the three-phase postgame boss that has come after online.

Story Mode players hoping for a more peaceful experience are eating good with this update, too, as it increases parry and dodge windows by a whopping 40% while reducing incoming damage by 10%. It's important to note that this only applies to Story Mode, which means fans who prefer a more chal💃lenging ti𓂃me don't need to worry about anything being too easy – in fact, they can crank their difficulty up x100 if they so choose now.

ꦚThat's because patch 1.3.0 contains some new challenge modifiers from Act 3 onward. With the ability to limit max player damage to 99,999 or 999,999 and multiply enemy HP by x2, x5, x10, x20, x50, or even x100, players can spice the gam🍃e up to suit their own tastes. As a fan myself, I personally can't imagine granting my enemies 100 times more health, but I'm certain some combat sickos will do so – and probably prove successful afterward as well.

Other adjustments made to Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 include bug fixes addressing some of the peskier problems flagged by players – 297 of them, to be precise. There are also a few handy localization tweaks and changes affecting in-game settings, like a couple of mouse and joystick sensitivity improvements, and the ability to manually rename save files, too. Patch 1.3.0 isn't the last of Sandfall's updates, either – "We continue!"

Playing the turn-based RPG yourself? Here are our best 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 tips to read ahead of diving into one of this year's greatest 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games yet.

As you might have guessed, those "certain" games are the ones that have PC ports. The likes of The Last of Us, God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered, and more have already made their way to Steam for PC𒐪 and Steam Deck players to enjoy, but the ROG Xbox Ally's Windows functionality also means they'll work on the upcoming devices.

When Microsoft was asked specifi🅰cally by if the ROG Xbox Ally devices🦹 will be able to run the latest God of War games, a representative confirmed: "Because these handhelds run Windows, you have access to all the games you can play on Windows PCs."

I mean, it makes sense – it'd be kind of weird if the devices, which can otherwise play all Steam games, just said "no" upon trying to launch a PlayStation title. Even so, there's something rather amusing about the idea of seeing first-party blockbusters from one of its greatest rivals appear on a device that "looks like 💎an Xbox, it feels like an Xbox," and also "plays like an Xbox."

It's sort of like seeing Xbox's recent multiplatform strategy – which has seen games like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Indiana Jones and the Great Circle release on PS5, and Grounded and Pentiment come to both Sony's console and Nintendo Switch – in reverse. More players being able to access certain games is always a positive thing at the end of the day, though – maybe this new plat🎶form will get more people to try them for the first time.

I'm not saying I regret buying a Nintendo Switch 2, but the ROG Xbox Ally X is almost everything I want from an Xbox handheld.

Speaking in a post-stream announcement on , Rebel Wolves' creative director, Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz, dives into the details regarding The Blood of Dawnwalker's combat system and how it works with protagonist Coen. "Coen trained for years with his father, a grizzled war veteran, so during the day he wields a sword," exp♐lains the dev. "We studied medieval fighting styles and even have a few trained swordsmen on the team."

Tomaszkiewicz, who previously worked on beloved CD Projekt Red RPGs like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Witcher 3 and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Cyberpunk 2077, says these efforts are why combat feels "authentic" in The Blood of Dawnwalker: "The result is combat that feels authentic and grounded, yet approachable and fun." How does combat change for Coen depending on whether it's day or night in the game, though, as this cycle is 🍸part of what makes the title so intriguing?

"As a human, he also learns how to 🙈use magic – raw, ritual-based, with dark, primordial origins," describes Tomaszkiewicz. "We're not going the high fantasy route with colorful explosions. Our spells are darker and grounded – tied to blood, heat, and air that seems to pulse and breathe. The visuals can be striking, but in a more visceral, eerie way. To cast a spellꦓ, you first have to literally open up your body to the occult by carving runes and becoming a living conduit. Magic flows through you."

Once the day draws to a close, combat takes a turn for Coen. "At night, though, these runes seal shut as your flesh regenꦓerates. They fade, like old scars. Instead, your vampiric nature awakens. You'll fight with claws, enhanced strength, supernatural agility, and dark powers available only after sunset. But these powers come at a cost: your humanity." It sounds like the sort of day-to-night shift one would expect of a vampire, with some nuance.

"Coen's vampiric Blood Craving comes into play: a system that ties his health level and his hunger," the lead explains. "When losing health, Coen is at risk of losing control over his vampire nature, which can even lead to involuntary draining [of] an NPC that you interact with, locking you out from some dialogue options or even quest lines as his dark instincts take over." That balance between risk and reward is core to the RPG experience, and as an excited fan myself, I can't wait to experience it firsthand.

Searching for more澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: new games to wishlist? Here's a full rundown of the澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: Summer Game Fest 2025 schedule to look back on for a better idea of what happened when.

To say the Dying Light series has had a complicated relationship with guns isn't an assumption on my part; it's literally the words of the series' franchise director, Tymon Smektała. during 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest 2025, Smektała walked us through Dyꦚing Light's messy history with guns and pew pewing.

Smektała (half-) joked that "if Dying Li✨ght an🐓d guns were on Facebook, their relationship status would be, 'it's complicated'."

He explained that Techland received a lot of feedback from people playing the original Dying Light and asking "why did you even bother to have the guns" in such a melee-focused game, and so "in the second one, we didn't." But then, naturally, "the 🐻first thing we heard after the release [of Dying Light 2] was 'but, where are the guns?'"

Future Dying Light 2 updates would eventually add guns, even though this presented a unique "lore and narrative challenge" because "we even specifically put that in the world building, in the lore, that there are no guns in this w🤡orld."

Although🌼 Techland somehow "managed to squeeze them in," there🉐 are still pretty prevalent narratives online that guns in Dying Light 2 are either or .

You can probably understand then that Techland decided to put a bigger focus on balꦺancing firearm combat in Dying Light: The Beast. "For Dying Light: The Beast, we decided, 'let's give the players the guns if they want, but also let's focus on the guns so they really feel on par with melee combat in terms of how physical they are, how brutal they are, but also balanced they are, so they don't feel too overpowered."

I genuinely feel for the team at Techland on this, as yes, the Dying Light series is built around fast-paced parkour traversal and, chiefly, the comical🔜ly gruesome slicing and dicing of zombies, particula꧒rly toward the endgame when you can start crafting wildly silly killing machines that make mincemeat out of the undead.

Guns have always felt a little out of place, but with Techland making this public commitme𒁏nt to improving them, there's reason to be hopeful🎐 for a more balanced assortment of weapons overall.

Techland announced during SGF that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码💃历史查询:Dying Light: The Beast is launching on August 22 across PS🐠5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One,🐬 and PC.

"For us, it really is Dying Light 3": Techland admits Dying Light 2 "lost the horror, lost the tension," but says The Beast is "the best Dying Light that we have ever made"

Among 澳洲幸运5开♈奖号码历史查询:everything announced at Summer Game Fest 2025, we learned that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dying Light:�🎐� The Beast is launching on August 22 across PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC. In the wake of that reveal, sat down with Dying Light franchise director Tym🔯on Smektała, who 🍌was candid about some of the less-than-favorable comparisons between Dying Light 2 and its acclaimed predecessor.

"Dying Light 1 was a game for our core community. It was a hardcore survival horror, open-world, action adventure with very strong survival aspects," he said. "For Dying L🍌ight 2, we forgot about it. The game was a commercial success, but the players who should be closest to our hearts said we kind of lost the edge, we lost the threat, we lost the horror, we lost the te🌄nsion."

As someone who gleefully logged d🔜ozens upon dozens of hours in Dying Light 1, but couldn't get into Dying Light 2, it excites me to no end that Techland used the original game as🅷 a template for The Beast.

Even still, with the new game starting out as Dying Light 2 DLC, it's been hard for me not only to shake that association but also view it as anything more than a standalone expansion. Apparently, that perception is dead wrong, as The Beast has a whole new setting and characters, with Smektała saying it took him arꦅound 37 hours to finish his latest playthrough.

"For us, it really is Dying Light 3," he said,꧃ later adding that the only reason it isn't a full-fat numbered sequel is because "it doesn't bring this very spectacular brไeakthrough new feature that maybe you would expect from the next numbered entry in the series," even though it's "a very proper triple-A game" and "very chunky."

The Beast brings back original Dying Light protagonist Kyle Crane as its main character, and now that he's out of captivity he's thirsty for revenge against the Baron, the scientist who's been experimenting on Crane and giving him supernatural powers. I suppose, in hindsight, that should'🦂ve been my clue that Techland listened to fans wanting more Dying Light 1 influence in the series' next game. Count me in.

In the meantime, here are the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best horror games to play tonight.

Unbeatable comes from developer D-Cell Games, and after playing the excellent Steam Next Fest Demo for a couple of hours I've not only gotten a taste of its punk story, but got to try oodles of songs in the arcade mode at varying levels of difficulty (included the extremely hard titular challenge level). Though the rhythm action takes place across just two buttons, Unbeatable is far from simple, and it feels incredibly satisfying to ace its tracks. And if you want to explore demos for yourself, check out our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Steam Next Fest guide for more.

But let me unstrap the guitar for just a moment to do some tuning and get you up to speed with what Unbeatable is – as there's more to this than just ♉a list of arcade songs to try. Unbeatable is set in a world "where music is illegal and you do crimes", essentially. Taking control of Beat, she leads the members of her band against a comically evil megacorp-ruled world where forms of expressio🍷n like music have been outlawed. It's punk by nature, every time you play an act of rebellion.

Nipping at Beat and friends' heels are security guards and an 'elite' duo who are obviously riffing of Pokemon's Team Rocket. While moments in the story incorporate songs to play like in the Arcade mode𝓰, there are ⛦also swifter variations that see you timing button presses to battle encroaching foes and so on. Likewise there are rhythm minigames specific to the story mode, from mixing cocktails to listening to the hum of a vending machine on the outskirts of town and allowing it to inspire Beat to come up with a new tune.

The story flows by allowing Beat to run around maps from a side- on perspect🔴ive, moving in and out of the environment. Across town are people to talk to, activities to help out with, and collectibles to uncover. It definitely takes a lot of cues from similar story-based narrative indie games that ha𒁃ve you running around urban environments, but that's no bad thing – it's a slick and easy to get into way of making Beat and the gang feel like they exist in a lived in space.

And action

OK, back to the rhythm game – which has its own progression track entirely separate from the story mode if you want via its arcade mode. How does🍰 having only two buttons feel compelling? Each song sees the band take center stage, as enemies fly at t✃hem to represent notes from across the left and right side of the screen at the same time, with both an upper line and a lower line across each. One button sees Beat go high, another go low. And those are the fundamentals.

Things get more complicated from there, of course. As well as notes you'll need to hit, there are plenty of ones yo🦋u need to avoid – a bit like Beat Saber in two-dimensions. Plus ⭕there are plenty of notes you need to bash away at, or hold – and, because of the simple set-up, loads of opportunities for those hold notes to supplement more inputs on the other line.

Add in the occasional center note, double note, and enemy notes that when you bash will then be knocked either down or up ready for a followup attack t♊hat means switching your line, and you have a whole lot of neat twists to deal with that keep you on your toes while also making the action feel like a thrilling punch-up. So far, whether enemies come from your left or right doesn't affect the required inputs, so I'm a little bit on the fence about how pointless the feature feels – but it does mean when playing for the first song you need to be extra vigilant from where notes will fly next, so in that sense it is adding something.

While I've been enjoying the brief taste of Story Mode the demo brings, w🍒hat's kept me playing Unbeatable really has been just playing the songs themselves. I love a good rhythm game, and this simple-at-a-glance two-button system is really scratching an itch, and I especially like how much depth lies beneath it – almost a bit like the underrated Rock Band Blitz. Now I'm tuned up, I can't wait to jump back in to attempt to master some more songs.

, PS5, and Xbox Series X in 2025.

I always h🔥esitate to put this kind of hyperbole in a preview piece, but Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is simply awesome. Drop in the c♏aveat here that the full game might have some fatal flaw that drags the whole thing down, but through four levels from across various sections of the game, I've been absolutely hooked.

Maybe it shouldn't be a surprise to say that the devs at The Game Kitchen, the studio behind the澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: best Metroidvania games out there in the Blasphemous series, have created an excellent 2D action game. But Ragebound manages the rare achievement of keeping the spirit of the legendarily tough-as-nails Ninja 🐓Gaiden series alive while giving us something that still feel🥂s fresh and exciting in 2025.

Pixel perfect

The first thing you'll notice about Ragebound is how good it looks. The game mimics the cinematic cutscene style of the original NES games, but with striking modern pixel art. The 2D action stages are similarly impressive, most of all for the tremendous variety of animations you'll see. Did the tutorial mission need custom art to show longtime series protagon💮ist Ryu Hyabusa opening a🔯 letter or viciously piledriving you into the floor when you fail to defeat him in combat? No, but the sheer spectacle is certainly appreciated.

You play as Kenji Muzo, an apprentice to Ryu🔴 who's left behind to deal with a demonic invasion all on his own. The plot likely won't be the main draw here, but snappy dialog offers some nice context to the stages – and gives The Game Kitchen opportunity to continue building on the uneasy religious themes the studio keeps coming back to as Kenji builds an uneasy alliance with the assassin Kumori, who can commune with the demon realm.

Kenji has the abilities you'd expect from the protagonist of a 2D Ninja Gaiden game, with wall-climbing, ceiling-crawling, and sword-slashing all on the menu. It all feels excellent, from the sticky wall-jump to the exact reach of your blade, but the best part is the double-jump – which you can only activate by simultaneously attacking a midair enemy, projectile, or object. If you've played The Messenger, an excellent but unlicensed indie take on Ninja Gaiden, you'll feel right at home with this jump mec♏hanic, but it's a bit s🍷treamlined and feels even better here.

Kumori serves as a sort of sidekick – the Kazooie to Kenji's Banꦰjo. Once she joins up with Kenji partway through the game, you can use her to send out various subweapon attacks, like straightline throwing knives or big, arcing axe throws. They're very reminiscent of classic Caꦑstlevania subweapons, especially in how they're governed by a limited resource bar, which here you refill by killing enemies.

Ryu the day

The final big wrinkle here is the hyper charge mechanic. Certain enemies will enter the field encased in a colored light,☂ and if you kill them with an appropriate attack – blue for melee, or purple for ranged – you'll be empowered with a supercharge that can instantly kill even the toughest foes. Most of the monsters go down in one or two hits, but some big baddies are either armored or can take a good half-dozen strikes to defeat.

You're encouraged, then, to wait a second or two before engaging the enemy, looking for the enemies you can use to build a hyper charge, and chaining between them to slice through the field in seconds. Like the NES games, it rewards you for memorizing the optim🅠al path through each encounter, but if you make a few kills in the wrong order, it's not the end of the world, as it'll just take a little extra effort to clear the encounter.

Ragebound is challenging, but it's not brutal the way its predecessors could often be. That's largely thanks to the regular checkpoints positioned throughout each stage, which makes retrying the hard parts a snap. If you die, that just means an opportunity to do ꧙better next time, and the controls are so precise that locking in that kind of mastery feels incredible.

Take the game's first boss for example, a dragon-like demon creature who kept catching me out after his big charge move, when he'd toss a couple of molten fireballs out that happen to land right at the inconvenient edge of the range of my invincible dodge roll. Every time I got hit, it was clear what I was doing wrong. I died twice trying to beat him, but on the third attempt I killed him෴ without even taking a hit.

You can play pretty sloppily and still get through a stage, but Ragebound challenges you to do better with bonus objectives for doing thi𒐪ngs like killing enemies with certain types of attacks or clearing a stage without dying. There are also collectibles to find, and many of these mechanics tie into some sort of upgrade system that wasn't available in the demo. I can already see myself running these stages over and over to perfect them before moving on onc꧂e the final game hits, though.

Ragebound's ability to inspire that chase for perfection is probably the greatest illustration of what it's doing right. It's challenging enough that no encounter is a cakewalk, but it always feels downright obvious how you could've done it better. It's the kind of game where you can immediately picture how wild the speedruns are going to look – a carefully choreo🍸graphed and very violent dance. I can't wait to play more.

Beast of Reincarnation looks like a modern triple-A game, because it is. Gone are the saturated hues and sparse environmental details of Pokemon, in are dense foliag🅺e, colossal bosses, and swift combat. The difference is night and day – or Sun and Moon.

"GameFreak, Gen 10 better look amazing on Nintendo Switch 2 next year if you all are capable of making games look lik💜e this compared to Pokemon," writes one awestruck fan on . "Same developers. Game Freak cannot be serious," anoth𒆙er.

People have been clowning on Game Freak for how bad Pokemon Scarlet and Violet run for ages. It's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a lot better on the Switch 2, but people still can'💟t believe the company is capable of this.

Over on Reddit, one person writes, in all caps which I shall spare you from, "Game Freak made this?! Bro, this is Game Freak?" I know, we're all just as shocked꧃, honestly.

"I bet they didn't crunch this in a year or two," one person. Since a new Pokemon Game is released 🐼every 🎃couple of years by Game Freak, a lot of people believe the team is overworked.

from

However, even though Beast of Reincarnation is due out in 2026, with Pokemon Legends: Z-A coming later th𝕴is year, Game Freak introduced back in 2022, so we have no evidence crunch is an issue.

On BlueSky, one person : "Game Freak: We hired a guy who told us what textures are. It has really revolutionized o👍ur whole deal."

It's unbelievable how different this looks to Pokemon. Considering 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Cyberpunk 2077 is coming to Switch 2, it's not like Game Freak couldn't make a game look like this on the hardware, but clearly that's just not the aesthetic direction either it or Nin🐭tendo wants to take Pokemon in.

While we wait for next year, check out all the other 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming games you have to look forward to.

Yes, all of them, in a row, deathless. Noted Elden Rin🍌g enthusiast itzCBD is the man responsible for this incredible demonstration of tenacity. In his journey to conquer Nightreign, he decided to take on the challenge of beating 𝓰every feasible major boss in a single sitting.

There are eight of them, each their own particular bran𒆙d of difficulty. No matter, as itzCBD ran throug𒐪h them as if they were mere undead. Well, it was a little trickier than that, but not by a huge amount.

Posting on X/Twitter, he shared the achievement, and a clip of him beating his final adversary, Heolstor. The last Nightlord was slain after 13 hours on stream trying to make this happen. This run itself lasted𓆉 five-and-a-half hours, a period you can double for how nail-biting Elden Ring can be🌼.

Remember, too, that besides the eight behemoth bosses, there are 16 mini-bosses to get through for this, two on each individual round. That makes for a grand of 24 battles, front to back, in succession. I’m sweating a little just thinking abo🐻ut.

But this is the kind of thing itzCBD thrives on. Unlike Skumnut, who relegated himself to just using a shield, itzCBD allowed himself weapons. The goal here was to do it all without dying – a different kind of gimmick to ဣSkum's predilection for getting through a single run in an absurd manner. Even so, with the different weakness and strategies associated with each Nightlord, it's quite a gauntlet of skill and RNG to overcome.

Their achieಞvements co-exist in different lanes, and now that Skum is going for a hitless run, we can only wait and see what itzCBD does next. He can enjoy what appears to be a world's first for the time b𝐆eing.

Our list of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elden Ring Nightreign tips should give you some assistance, whether you’re going for hitless or deathless or none of the above.

Gears of War is getting its second remaster very soon, with the big gimmick this time around being that the game is finally making the jump away from Xbox and letting PlayStation players in on the fun (with a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:bunch of betas coming before it launches on August 𒁃26). However, in Japan – where PlayStation has always been significantly more popular – the game will only be releasing on Xbox and PC.

This was announced on a post (spotted and translated by , and🍃 verified using machine translation), in a post which explains the game won't be releasing on the platform due to "regional rating restrictions and platform policies."

While Japanese players are advised that they'll still be abl♐e to play the game at launch on Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass, an apology has been issued for anyone inconvenienced by the PS5 version not releasing.

While not as eager to ban games as some countries, Japan has previously banned games with copious amounts of gore like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:2022's The Callisto Protocol and the Dead Space Remake. Plus 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Assassin's Creed Shadows was censored iღn the country, with the dismemberment toned down vastly (which seems to be a sticking point given that Dead Space is all about the dismemberment).

Automaton mentions that the original release of Gears of War in 2006 did in fact release in a censored state,🦹 with some scenes depicting severed limbs being affected.

The post doesn't specify why only the PS5 version is affected when the game is presumably the same across both platforms, so I'm assuming that the "platform policies" section is doing a lot of the heavy lifting here.

We saw some more of Gears of War: Reloaded at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest this year, making an appearance during the Xbox Games Showcase.

While the Trials of Aql have their own dedicated quest section in Dune: Awakening's Journey menu, the exact locations of each trial aren't marked on the map with objective markers. Instead, you're left to your own devices with nothing but a simple map to guide y꧂ou. Fortunately, the game tells you the region where each trial is located, and tracking down the location of each cave is easy enough once you've fully surveyed an area.

Dune Awakening Third Trial of Aql Altar Location

The third Trial of Aql in Dune Awakening is located on a rocky mountain along the western edge of Western Vermillius Gap. More specifically, the third Aql altar can be found within the Cave of the Lost Pilgrim. This is a moisture-sealed cave tha🐟t you may have visited already since it's located in one of Dune: Awakening's early-game regions. It's marked with a special pink icon instead of the usual orange moisture-sealed cave icon❀.

The map includes directions, but they're a bit hard to decipher. "Para-west of the great hammer of Mirzabah… a table of stone for God's feast… turn para-north from its bounty and seek🔯 the cave of the purple eye." That's a lot of words, but they don't really tell you much. Just use the map below as reference for ease of use.

Instead of huffing some Spice and participating in a trial, you'll just find a destroyed altar this time around. Listen to the recording device at the altar to complete this quest and unlock the Fourth Trial of Aql. That's all there is to this quest. The fourth altar is close 🍰by at least, so you're not too far from unlocking more Fremen technology✤.

While the Western Vermillius Gap is far from the most dangerous region of Arrakis, you should still take some time to prepare for the trek across the desert. In addition to the u🌞sual bandits and scavengers, keep an eye out for special types of sand as you make your way to the Cave of the Lost Pilgrim. The Vermillius Gap region is the first place where new Dune: Awakening players will encounter drumsand and quicksand, so it's not just an easy straight shot to the third Aql altar.

You can see the locations of drumsand and quicksand on the map. They're marked with giant red circ𒈔les, and you can see wisps of sand floating above them when traveling across the desert. Quicksand will slow you down to a crawl, while drumsand is basically guaranteed to draw a sandworm's attenti෴on. Plan your route ahead of time so you don't get eaten.

Not only that, but Aluminum Ore requires a pre😼tty significant Cutteray upgrade before you can start to min🔴e it. There are a few hoops you have to jump through in order to secure that Cutteray upgrade for yourself, but thankfully, they're things that you should be doing before heading deeper into the desert anyway. Once you've got the right equipment, it's quite easy to farm Aluminum Ore in Dune: Awakening. Here's where you can find it.

Aluminum Ore has a similar color to Iron and Carbon, but there aren't any crystals poking out of the deposits. Instead, Aluminum Ore looks a bit like Granite Stone with some white and brown spots dotted across its surface. You need a Cutteray Mk. 3 in order to mine aluminum Ore, but you can pick up a few chunks from the ground next to deposits if y𝓰ou just need a few pieces for a quick craft.

A Cutteray ൩Mk. 3 requires Steel Ingots, EMF Genera🃏tors, Cobalt Paste, and Ray Amplifiers to craft. On top of that, it's one of the first recipes that requires the Survival Fabricator instead of the basic Fabricator.

Steel Ingots are crafted by combining Iron Ingots and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dune Awakening Carbon ꦇOre, which are plentiful in the southern regions of the desert. EMF Generators are Fremen materials, so they're only found in moisture-sealed caves. Cobalt Paste is created by refining Erythrite Crystals in a Chemical Refinery, and Ray Amplifiers are found in chests located within enemy outposts.

Once you have the necess༺ary materials, you can combine everything at a Survival Fabricato💖r to create a Cutteray Mk. 3. You can get a ton of Aluminum Ore from each deposit with this tool, and further Cutteray upgrades will increase your mining efficiency even more.

The Shield Wall and Mysa Tarril regions of Dune Awakening are riddled with cliffs and valleys, so it's a good idea to prepare before you set out for the western edge of the desert. A good Suspensor Belt is a must so you can avoid fall damage, and a solid 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dune Awakening Sandbike build will help you dart around theﷺ sands much faster☂.

Since most of the recipes that require Aluminum Ore also require basic materials like Carbon Ore or Steel Ingots, you should take some time to gear up before heading west on a mining expedition. Losing a shootout with bandits or getting eaten by a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dune Awakening Sandworm will just waste your time, so make sure you're prope♚rly equipped for the journey ahead.

Ready to begin your journey anew? We've got all the best 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dune Awakening Character Creation c൲hoices here! Or perfect your character with all the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dune Awakening best skills from each skill tree!

Yes, yes he did. It seems that Resident Evil's ninth mainline game will feature the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft, the cutthroat journalist who starred in PS2 spin-off, Resident Evil Outbreak, some 22 years ago. Aside from a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:small nod to her in Resident Evil 7, where one of her articles is found by Ethan Winters, the Ashcrofts have largely faded into the background since then. But now that Capcom is dredging up its past to cꦬarve out the series' future, 🎉I have a couple of hunches about what might come next for us survival horror fans – including a few theories on what the Resident Evil Requiem storyline might be.

Ancient grudge

I'll cut to the chase: it's looking more likely that instead of a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:much-rumored Code Veronica remake, we could be getting a brand new Resident Evil Outbreak first. It makes sense that Capcom would continue its winning streak off the back of mega-s⛄uccessful Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4, but with Resident Evil 5's subject matter having aged like fine milk, I'm not holding out hope for Wesker's final act to get a modern facelift imminently.

Enter: Resident Evil Requiem, here to save the day by reminding us of one of the franchise's lesser-known spin-offs. Despite owning a copy of the PS2 game myself and very much not hating the thing, I'll be the first to admit that an Outbreak remake is not something I'd had on my bingಌo card.

Useful as the game is when it comes to fleshing out the lives of Raccoon City's everymen on the night it all went to hell and back, it has objectively less impact on the mainlℱine series' events than s🍸omething like Code Veronica. The latter is widely considered canon, but Outbreak and its sequel Outbreak File #2 are mere "fluff," so to speak, there to add some color rather than paint a new picture

But Resident Evil Requiem has the chance to change that. We don't know much about what the plot of the new game might be at the moment – only that our supposed protagonist Grace Ashcroft is a tech analyst for the FBI, her mother lost her life at the Wrenwood Hotel eight years earlier, and Grace is about to be sꦿent back there to investigate a spate of suspicious viral infections.

We also know that Alyssa's story will be of some importance, given the brief flashback sequences in the RE9 announcement trailer. With glimpses of the Raccoon City Police Department pre and post-destruction thrown in there for good measure, on top of a mix of terrified voices pointing at something horrendous happening right now, it's liܫkely we will be finding out exactly what happened to Alyssa (and, perhaps, Grace) at the Wrenwood this Febru𝓡ary.

My slightly more extreme theory, though, is that the Outbreak꧃ "remake" might happen as part of Resident Evil Requiem itself.

New mutiny

Think about it: Outbreak plays out in the format of various scenarios, each featuring a handf🍌ul of laymen who experience the T virus epidemic first-hand. Each of the s♋cenarios takes only a few hows to complete apiece, meaning it's fairly easy to separate the stories from one another.

What if instead of mere flashback cinematics, we get to play through Alyssa's past in a split timeline in RE9 – both her more recent Wrenwood experience, and those late-90s escapades as seen in Resident Evil Outbreak? Moreover, what if Capcom decides to retcon bits here and there, adding more connective tissue throughout 😼Alyssa's scenario – say, linking her story to that of Claire, Jill, or Leon, who were also active in the city that very same nighꦗt?

Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but in this context, I can see how a remake-within-a-sequel would actually pan out pretty well. It would also put some stock into all the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Resident Evil 9 rumors that had been going around some time ago – and have popped up again over the weekend – regarding Leon featuring in the next Resi game in a meaningful capacity. If Requiem straddles more than one spot on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Resident Evil timeline, it would give the once-rookie cop more stake in the m🔜atter, both as a pꦆarticipant of the game's modern timeline and by giving us more backstory into how he and Alyssa might have once crossed paths.

So there you have it. My most out-there prediction, written up for al༺l to roll their eyes at. But maybe, just maybe, if I happen to be right… well, it'll be like the Summer Game Fest reveal all over again, only I'll be twice as smug about it.

Resident Evil Requiem is just one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming horror games looming on the horizon...

In a the Undertale account posted the details of a hotfix for the game, which in🌊clude a number of freezing and crashing issues, described in the least-spoilery ways possible like, "fixed a common crash in a room with a lot of screens."

The patch also introduced a failsafe for when players play the rhythm game sections withouꦚt having audio input (not sure why you'd do that, but you do you I guess).

And, unfortunately, part of one hotfix noted that the patch "fixed a part where you can er🎉roneously enter an empty room." As someone who loves erroneously entering an empty room, I'm gutted 🃏the devs would take this away from us.

Since then, the team has released but f🃏or the game over the weekeꦐnd, with even more crashing and freezing issues targeted.

There's another 𓂃notable part in the latest one that reads: "strengthened imagery while maintaining a scene's intended meaning." This is in reference to a scene in Chapter 4, where players had misinterpreted the meaning of a cut-to-black during the ga♋me's Snowgrave route.

In each of the patch notes posts, it's mentioned that these fixes will be coming to console veꦰrsions as soon as possible, but due to the time it takes to get patches approved on console, the team is opting to get as many fixes into one patch as possible.

Oh, and there have also been reports that the game , which prohibits the improper use of a red cross on a white background. This isn't the first time a game has done this, either, with and copping to the same thing in previous upꦯdates, among others.

After breaking Steam, Deltarune dev Toby Fox appears to aim to break the internet: "After you finish Chapter 4, make sure to load up your save file one more time afterwards."

A solid seven years have now passed since The Elder Scrolls 6 debuted with its short teaser trailer at E3 in 2018. Since then, little news about the upcoming RPG has surfaced – and no, passing references like the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:post-Obliv♔ion 𓆏Remastered mention from Todd Howard and the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:NPC auction that raised $85,000 don't count. It comes as no surprise, then, that we fans were expecting (or coping, really) to see the seemingly forsaken ti𓆏tle at Summer Game Fest.

Did we,♐ though? Nope! Another year, another ꧂miss for Elder Scrolls fans – and we're making our voices heard online, it seems.

"13 years, seven months, and🎶 27 days I've waited," writes a fellow disappointed player on ౠ, who seems to be off by a month in their calculations, but it's been so long, who can blame them at this point?

"I was in elementary school when Skyrim came out, and my friend and I made a🤪 joke that we'd be adults w🌼hen ES6 came out," comments another. "Wrapping up college now, maybe Todd [Howard] will pull through."

from

Elsewhere, another post on sees a fan speculating abo�﷽�ut the possibility of a 2026-2028 release. "It still stings a bit that we didn't get anything about the game," they explain. "I can understand us not getting a trailer, but I would have liked a sit-down interview with either Todd or Pete." A separate features even more upset voices, with players expressing how they're losing hope: "I am usually an optimist, but I feel like giving up."

There are countless replies echoing the same sentiment, and as a massive Elder Scrolls stan myself, I can't help but agree with them. Sure, we recently got 澳洲幸运5开奖号码♛历史查询:The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered, but when will we get something new? There are only so many Skyrim re-runs I can personally stomach, and only so many platforms to re-release older entries from the RPG series on – please hear (and answer) our pleas, God Howard.

Need something to look forward to while waiting for The Elder Scrolls 6? Here are other 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games arriving this year and beyond.

This was revealed by lead writer Marcin Blacha in a recent , who mentions that some of the "biggest changes" made to the game between its development and the final version were related to the titular Wild Hunt. Geralt was once ෴planned t♐o be "kind of like an insider," and "doing stuff pretending to be one of them."

The scrappe𝓀d ending sounds particularly interesting, with Blacha upfront in saying that "Mass Effect 2 was a huge inspiration for the game." He continues: "Initially, we had an ending that was kind of inspired by Mass Effect 2… that moment when Geralt gathers a party and goes on a suicide mission.

"It was on a Skelli🍸ge drakkar you were sailing into a frozen sea, and you were supposed to fight the Wild Hunt on𝓡 this drakkar."

In the end, CD Projekt ꧂Red "redesigned" the ending "a little bit," having instead "decided to make this more personal ending." Clearly, the idea wasn't scrapped in its entirety, with the whole boat on an icy sea setting carrying forth to the actual ending, when Geralt takes on the King of the Wild Hun꧃t.

No game is without its scrapped ideas, and it makes you wonder in this case how many bits of content that got edited out of The Witcher 3 could make an appearance in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Witcher 4. A recent Witcher 4 tech demo revealed that Manticores feature in the upcoming RPG, over💞 10 years since they were apparently cut 𓃲from the last game, so that's just one example.

The Witcher 4 devs are inspired by RPGs like Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and Baldur's Gate 3, but "definitely are not going to make a game like Larian did."

My time with CrossWorlds, though, gave me a grand vis♓ion of a world ♋where I'm back to square one, just enjoying the rampant chaos of a party game.

Gotta go fast

I got to tour the single-player grand prix mode of CrossWorlds, which offers what initially sounds like a familiar format to Mari▨o Kart-heads like me: a set of four races across various tracks consisting of three laps each. But there are some big twists here. The middle section of each track takes you to an alternate dimension for a single-lap excursion, and the final race is made up of a single lap from each of the three previous courses.

The finale being a remix of the the previous tracks gives a nice endcap to the grand prix, building on what you've learned from your previous laps to put it together when it matters most - and it does matter more at the end, since first place awards more points to the winner than it does in the other raᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚces.

Really adding to the drama is the rivals system, where a CPU character will be marked as your personal antagonist and regularly taunt you before, during, and after the races. It's a terrific way of both bringing more of the characters' personality into the action and making you very, very angry. I'm a pretty calm gamer as a general rule, but seeing Knuckles blow past me for the lead of the race and the grand prix, while he makes some snarky quip had me feeling the 💫kind of rage you normally reserve for FromSoftware bosses. It makes the races feel very high-stakes.

Crash course

The action is also very chaotic, even by kart racer standards, with items constantly fly𒈔ing around and level-specific environmental effects kicking off all the time. You'll often be blindsided by items without much warning and no apparent way to defend against them. It's tough to tell if I'd have started to figure out how to manage these threats with more than an hour of gameplay under my belt, but it certainly seems like you can expect to be pretty thoroughly buried in a shower of item-based destruct💃ion everywhere you go.

That chaos compounds with the grand prix format, since you only spend two laps on each track, as lap two is replaced by a journey into an alternate chosen by whichever player gets to the portal first. There's a little less opportunity to reach a rhythm with each trac🧔k, since you'll spend so much of your time in the middle of a race just… driving on a completely different track.

Whether or not that cranked up chaos is a good thing remains to be seen, but I'm intrigued. The problem with single-player Mario Kart is that it tends to feel 'solved' at a certain point - you take an early lead, drive out to a ridiculous distance ahead🐽 of the competition, and then never see any of the ridiculous items and shenanigans that make a kart racer, well, a kart racer.

I have hope that Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds could cure that specific issue. Will I fully jump kart racing ships with a shiny new next-gen 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mario Kart World waiting in the wings? That I don't know, but CrossWorlds does seem poised to provide a very different type of experience, and one I'm excited to jump in pretty muc💝h fresh to.

I didn't know how badly I needed a PvPvE Dark Souls in my life until Mistfall Hunter threw one in my lap.

Casino Royale's Le Chiffre joining Hitman World of Assassination was one of the surprise reveals from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest 2025. Successfully taking him out will net you a rew🥂ard in IO Interactive's upcoming James Bond🧸 game 007 First Light, even though Hitman senior level designer Martin Ansdal has since told us "that does not imply a larger, shared thing" between the two unive💫rses.

In the same interview, we asked how IO Interactive approaches designing a level like ꦑthis when players have so many different ways to tackle it and complete the mission. Ansdal agrees that this is certainly a challenge "after all the updates" that have been added, including "the banana peel," which can be used to make people slip over in true slapstick fashion. "So that's something we now have to co♏nsider," he says.

Beyond that, though, "the hardest part is actually keepiᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚng the target alive, because the player has so many ways" to take them out. Ansdal points to the antics of speedrunners and "some of the stuff they do." He explains: "Le Chiffre took like five months to make, and some guy will surely do it in like a second🐽 or something."

Are any brave speedrunners going to take that on as a challenge? I hope so. When ♈it comes to solutions to the latest level, Ansdal mentions he's "definitely seen some banana peel shenanigans," as well as "something that required a very special solution," although he didn't reveal what, teasing that players could "try to figure out the thing" instead.

Mads Mikkelsen says his roles in Death Stranding and Hitman both had "one thing" in common: "I had no idea what was going on."

Speaking to GamesRadar+ at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest, 007 franchise director 𝔍at IOI, Jonathan Lacaille, explains the balance between the more linear, Uncharted-style trailer and IOI's signature systemic gameplay.

"It's either or," Lacꦗaille replies. "IOI has a pedigree, and that fits really well on IP💟, so we are leaning into that, of course. But that would not tell the full story of who Bond is."

Like Agent 47, Bond is a spy, but he's also not afraid of chasing down par൲kour runners in building sites or engaging in a shooting car chase through an ancient European town.

"We are leaning a lot on what IOI does best, but we had to come up with a lot of new things that IOI had to learn and to reiterate on to really bring the fullဣ Bond experi▨ence," Lacaille says. "For instance, driving, not done that before, and we're doing that now."

Moreso than ever, though, IOI is developing a game with a lot more shooting in it than the Hitman series has. "Shooting usually was a failing condition in Hitman, and here it's a big part of the game," Lacaille explains. "We don't want the game to just go by shooting and shooওting and shooting. So we want to give the player a lot of tools to feel as smart as Bond in the game."

Lacaille goes on to say there will be gadgets that we can use to help us out and all♒ow us to take "kind of varied and spread out" approaches, which sounds more similar to what IOI ha♚s done with Hitman in the past. But, teasingly, he says we'll have to wait to learn more about those systems.

In the meantime, check out everything that was announced at Summer Game Fest 2025.

With more details from developer Frontier, and a first look at the game in action, Jurassic World Evolution 3 promises to take us on a new globetrotting adventure that will bring us to various locations around the world for some more dino-filled fun. With exciting new features including more intuitive building tools, the addition of dinosaur breeding, and much more, you can expect to put your management skills to the test, get creative, and look after gentle giants and scaly predators in the follow-up to one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best dinosaur games - which promi🔴ses to build on all that's come befor🏅e.

With some Jurassic film tie-ins to top it all off, a release date confirmed alongside its announcement, and a closer look at some of the tools we'll have at our disposal, it's quickly shaping up to be one of the most exciting 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games for 2025. So, if you can hardly wait for some more prehistoric goodness, join us as we guide you through everᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚything we know so far about Jurassic World Evolution 3.

Jurassic World Evolution 3 release date

Frontier has confirmed The Jurassic World Evolution 3 release date is set for October 21, 2025.

Four years after the release of the last game in the series, which came our way back in 2021, it's exciting to see a new experience land, with the release date dropping right at the end of its first officia⛦l announcement.

Jurassic World Evolution 3 platforms

Jurassic World Evolution 3 platforms have been confirmed for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5.

As one of the confirmed 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming PC games to look forward to, Frontier confirmed it will be available via Steam and the Epic Games store, with it also roaming onto consoles among the upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X games and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming PS5 games we have to look forward to in the future.

Jurassic World Evolution 3 trailer

In the Jurassic World Evolution 3 trailer, life finds a way. Yes, we 🐼get to see plenty of dinosaurs roam as Jeff Goldblum once again reprises his role as Ian Malcolm to narrate our very first look at the new management🔯 sim. With the adventure set to introduce new dinosaur family dynamics, we even get to see some baby dinos with their parents. How exciting! You can watch the full announcement trailer just above.

Jurassic World Evolution 3 gameplay

Jurassic World Evolution 3 gameplay is set to add some exciting new features and tools, along with a wealth of customiz൩ation options that will make building parks and incubating dinosaurs more in-depth and intuitive than ever before.

With a look at some of the ways the third entry is stepping things up from the games that came before it in our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Jurassic World Evolution 3 preview, male dinosaurs and dinosaur breeding is set to bring a whole new layer of gameplay to the experience. N🎐ot only will the breeding feature give you greater control over the pre-historic friends you'll introduce to your parks, but also bring a new family dynamic and young dinosaur behaviors to the management sim.

With an all new 3D viewer in the hatchery - where you can incubate new dinosaurs - you'll have options to change up the patterns and coloring to create and customize the look of your dino-fri🏅ends. Then, you're able to set down nests in your park.

Not unlike previous games, every dinosaur will have different needs, and catering to them will in꧂crease their comfort level. Provided they are comfortable enough in their environment and you have males and females roaming, they'll make use of the nests to create eggs that will then introduce "juvenile" dinosaurs that get up to their own unique antics in your park.

The juveniles also inherit the traits of their parents, so you can even strategize to try and retain and change certain traits fꩵor the dinos you breed.

The third installment will also include a suite of new creative tools, including the ability to easily manipulate and sculpt the terrain to add the likes of cliffsides, waterfalls, and landscape the environment to create tier❀s for your park. With the tools created for newcomers and more experienced players alike, new features have been added to the creation of buildings and structures.

So, if you're looking to get more creative, you can now customize and change each individual piece of a building - such as walls, c༒eilings, windows, and more - and change up its angle, scale, and coloring. But if you're looking to just get stuck into the management side of things in your park, or you don't particularly enjoy the creative aspect, you can also quickly set down pre-made buildings to get stuck in with ease.

Not unlike games past, you can also expect to put your management skills to the test as you try to build up your own park, ensure you dinosaurs are comfortable, fed, and well looked after, and most importantly, that the 🐻fences have a good power source so no aggressive dinos make a break for it and wreak havoc.

And with a more naturalistic approach, you can still place down fences, but this time around, you'll also be able to make your enclosures using 💯the terrain manipulation tools to create surfaces that cut off areas for different dinosaur breeds.

Jurassic World Evolution 2 had a variety of different modes, including a sandbox mode, and a Chaos Theory mode that had various "what if" scenarios tied to the movies. For Jurassic World Evolution 3, the campaign mode is all we know about so far, but we'll keep our eyes peeled for future updates on what else we can expect. For a refresher on the last entry in the series, check out our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Jurassic World Evolution 2 review.

Jurassic World Evolution 3 story and setting

Jurassic World Evolution 3 will feature a core campaign set across the globe, meaning you'll be a🍸ble to make parks in various locations in Asia, North America, and Europe. With the preview showing off two locaܫtions including one in Japan and one in Malta, game director Andy Fletcher also revealed that the campaign will be non-linear, meaning that you can choose to go to a location and return to any parks you create around the world as you wish.

There will also be a narrative that's set after the event of the Jurassic World Dominion movie, which saw people and dinosaurs striving to live in harmony - check out our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Jurassic World Dominion review for more on that. You'll be 🦋working as a member of an organization known as the Dinosaur Integration Network, with Jeff Goldblum narrating as your adviser and guide.

With juveniles and breeding now in the narrative ꧋and🌄 core experience, you'll be setting out to ethically conserve habitats and run sustainable breeding programs to maintain the dinosaur presence across the globe.

Can I pre-order Jurassic World Evolution 3?

Jurassic World Evolution 3 pre-orders are now live across all platforms.

F꧙ollowing the game's announcement, Frontier revealed the upcoming management sim will be released with a Deluxe ($74.99 / £🙈64.99) and Standard Edition ($59.99 / £49.99).

The Deluxe version will include four additional family dinosaur units, including the herbivore Protoceratops, the Gu𒁏anlong which is a relative of the tyrannosaurs, the Thantatosdrakon that has feathery plumes, and the Concavenator breed that are known for being "aerodynamic hunters". The Deluxe edition will also include bonus scenery and skin items for your parks and dinosaurs.

If you pre-order e💦ither edition, you'll also get a pre-order bonus in the shape of a Badlands set, which gives you aಌ collection of scenery inspired by the digsite in the original Jurassic Park film.

Out of Words has you play as the duo of Kurt and Karla, whose mouths have suddenly disappeared (making them… out of words). The game had♏ debut during the Summer Game Fest stream, which showed off some of the world of Vokabulantis, as well as the supporting cast of the game (who can still speak) and what appears to be a companion character in the form of an adorable stingray-looking thing. Everything in the game is handcrafted, with the trailer highlighting some of the creation process in between gameplay clips.

Kojima had the chance to check out the game at Summer Game Fest, with his personal assistant Ayako Terashima posting checking out the game earlier this week. and spoke more about Out of Words, saying, "Out of Words is simple, gentle, and beautiful." He adds, "It's the kind of game we need in an age where we've lost the true meaning of 'words' on social media" – something Out of Words' technical lead Daniel Bross seemed quite pleased by, , "Really didn't have this on my bingo card. So honored that Hideo Kojima playe🉐d our game and liked it!"

Outside of that, however, Kojima hasn't rea♑lly talked about what else caught his eye at SGF, barring posting about his , wher♛e he was seen posing next to the Onimusha: Way of the Sword advertisement. But considering how much of a film nerd Kojima is, there's no chance he wouldn't be into a game that features the likeness of Toshiro Mifune, right?

Hollow Knight: Silksong is releasing "before" the Holiday season, Team Cherry says, and isn't "tied to a console release" like the Xbox ROG Ally.

An avalanche of 🐷posts on the Starfield subreddit began as soon as the stream finished🌌, despairing at the lack of a roadmap. Without even a suggestion of more DLC arriving in the near future, people are starting to think the studio’s priorities are elsewhere.

"What a joke," starts . "Unfortunately Bethesda🧜 doesn't s🌺eem to care." This sentiment carried through to several others. "After so much time of silence, the game looks so dead now, it's sad," emphatically states.

One goes so far as to thank modders for expanding Starfield in lieu of what's starting to feel like developer apathy. "Thank you to all the modders out there who have kept the game on life🌸 support. I fear, though, we're getting dangerously close to the heart monitor flatlining," they state.

An at Bethesda’s track record demonstrates why players are so forlorn. In the past, the company's major games have gottౠen up to five full-on DLC packs within the first year of release. Oblivion, Fallout 3,🐻 Skyrim, and Fallout 4 were all well supported in the first 18 months of their availability.

Meanwhile, Starfield has gotten a single substantial dose of downloadable content in the form of Shattered Space, which came out in September 2024, over a year after launch. A further DLC expansion hasn't been formally announced, but director Todd Howard previously that "th🍌ere will be another one," and hinted that Bethesda would be "more or less" aiming for annual expansions for "hopefully a very long time."

Without a release window, h💝owever, it's looking like the next DLC will almost certainly arrive ov🃏er two years from when people started playing the spacefaring open-world adventure.

There’s been some rationalizing, with it being brought up that Howard has mentioned before he wants to resist announcing anything until t🅠here's something tangible to show. Having now sat through seven years of questions about The Elder Scrolls 6, he probably wants to avoid doing so for anything else on the slate.

Still, it's worrying, since Starfield hasn't been the groundbrea✃king new chapter anyone really hoped or thought it would be. Marketing emails raised eyebrows about the Xbox livestream, ওcreating what would become false hope for onlookers.

It doesn't help that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hollow Knight: Silksong, the long-gestating Metroidvania sequel, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:got a bit of news after years of pretty much nothing, rubbing salt in the wound. Some wor🔥ry has lingered over how much support Starfield will get overall compared to the surer bets i❀n Bethesda's pipeline, and the silence not providing any relief.

Be sure to check out our roundup of everything announced during Summer Game Fest 2025.

Bad knees is an in-game flaw that actually made me laugh out loud when it was described during the Outer Wilds 2 direct at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest. It allows you to move faster, but the drawback is when you go from crouching to standing, "your knees are gonna make a loud p💎opping noise that makes it so that, well, everyone around you is gonna hear you."

If, like me, you're on the wrong side of 30, you likely know at least oneꦐ person whose knees do this 💎– chances are, that person is you. It's actually a great roleplay quirk for a stealth character.

All that crouch walking must play havoc with your joints – Red Dead Redemption 2 actor Roger Clark did say the hardest part of filming for the game was all the squatting: "three days later my thighs were absolutely killing me."

One very cool and slightly cruel perk is serial 💞killer. If you choose it, there's a chance every human you kill will drop a heart, which you can colle🐬ct to get a permanent boost to your health. If you kill a human who "wasn't hostile" to you, there's a 100% chance of the drop.

I'm not sure if this means stealth kills guarantee hearts or you have to kill 💫innocent NPCs, but either way, it's an interesting reward for being a murderer, and another great boon for stealth players; if you do get caught, that extra health will stop you getting put down too quickly.

The strangest and most unique flaw revealed so far is sungazeꦺr. Quite liter♍ally what it sounds like, your character just loves to stare at the sun, and that has permanently damaged their vision.

The ga🌱me will look hazy, and ranged weapon spread will be increased by 100%, making you very inaccurate. It "makes the game pretty unplayable if you happen to choose that," says one developer.

While you wait for The Outer Worlds 2 to come out, check out all the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming Xbox games.

Gamble, who is currently directing 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mass Effect 5, seemingly likes the look of Owlca꧟t Games' new sci-fi action RPG. Responding to the upcoming title's debut trailer in an online post, the 🐷lead praises the developers and what he's seen of the game so far: "Looking pretty awesome, Owlcat Games!"

It's a wholesome interaction between the Mass Effect director and the studio behind CRPG gemsꦕ like Pathfinder: Kingmaker and Warhammer 40,000: Rogu🍸e Trader.

The response from Gamble is especially refreshing to see, as Yuliya Chernenko, game design produc൩er on The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, recently revealed in a that the Mass Effect series is indeed one of the major inspirations driving Owlcat Games' production of the new action RPG. "The original M😼ass Effect trilogy was absolutely an inspiration to the team," said the producer, going on to dub the games "iconic" in her statement.

"It was iconic for the Xbox 360 generation of gamers," continued Chernenko. "Many of us first played it in our teenage years, and it left a lasting impression. We are building on that🏅 legacy and expanding what players anticipate from this experience. Our story is deeply rooted in hard science fiction – one of the core reasons The Expanse universe resonates so well with its fans. The combat reflects the standards of modern action gameplay."

Much like in Mass Effect, Chernenko also explained that The Expanse: Osiris Reborn's own narrative "emphasizes political tension and moral complexity." And yes, just as there was in BioWare's beloved series, "there's romance too."

Searching for more澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: new games to wishlist? Here's a full rundown of the澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: Summer Game Fest 2025 schedule to look back on for a better idea of what happened when.

Pitchford has been doing some investigation on Twitter over the last week or so, polling Borderlands fans on which factors they consider are m😼ore likely to correlate w💮ith a "better" game, from average play time to positive user reviews. Overall, his polls suggested that fans value "high actual play time" above other factors, although he's since pointed out that, in an "interesting" twist, players also voted Borderlands 2 as a "larger" game than Borderlan💎ds 3, despite the actual stats showing a higher average playtime on the latter.

In his on the matter, Pitchford notes that "I wouldn't focus on the time – it's the relativity that matters." After all, in this context, average playtimes are a slightly inaccurate way to measure things since you've got people on both extremes – those who'll play for all of five minutes, and others who rack up hundreds if not thousands of hours – influencing the overall figures. That, and "BL2 has an advantage for having bee𒊎n out so much longer than BL3."

Overall, though, his playtime re🍬sults suggest Borderlands 3 "is 'better' than BL2 by the standard the people who responded to my poll have favored." Pitchford recognises that "obviously individual tastes vary and entertainment is subjective. We are all edge cases."

Concluding,🤡 however, it doesn't sound like the results of Pitchford's polls really mattered that much at all when it comes to Borderlands 4. "In any case, by any standard we've thrown at it, we are confident that BL4 is turning out to be better than BL3 by every measurement we have, including subjective ones, so that makes us very excited about the launch!" he adds.

For now, it's just a waiting game to see if that really is the case. There's still quite a wait for Borderlands 4, with it set to arrive on most platforms on September 12, but hey, that's 11 whole days sooner than we o🎉riginally expected.

Gearbox finally responds to series-wide Borderlands review bomb after 19 days, says its owner "does not use spyware" and it's actually OK with most mods.

Persona 4 first launched in 2008, but many modern-day fans might be more familiar with the expanded edition that dropped four years later: Persona 4 Go𒆙lden. While it makes sense that some would immediately assume Persona 4 Revival would be a remake of the enhanced version of the JRPG, this actually has yet to be confirmed – and as Persona 3 Reload released as a remake of only its original counterpart (only adding the FES-exclusive epilogue as DLC, and leavin🦩g out Portable's female protagonist entirely), anything is possible.

Thankfully, however, the Persona 4 Revival trailer seemingly points to a remake of Golden a෴nd not the first 2008 release. As one Persona modder, known online 🌺as "MeovvCAT," discusses in a , the video from Atlus highlighted during the Xbox Games Showcase "uses Time to Make History at the end." Why is that significant? "The song is exclusive to Golden" – the enhanced 2012 edition.

The Persona 4 Golden music isn't the only element from the re-release to make an𝓡 appearance in the Revival trailer, either. MeovvCAT follows up their original post with another on something they noticed while watching: what appears to be a covered-up scooter, which isn't present in the 2008 version of the JRPG. "The Persona 4 Revival Teaser also shows the Dojima Residence for a split second, and the 🌺Protagonist's Scooter can be seen in storage," they write.

"In the original game, there was a regular bike♛ in its place," concludes MeovvCAT. "This is further evidence that Golden content and mechanics are included in P4R."

Coupled with the song from the trailer, this feels like pretty solid evidence that Persona 4 Revival is indeed a remake of Persona 4 Golden and not just Persona 4. There's no telling until Atlus reveals more, but regardless, I'd say the JRPG is one of the most exciting 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games underway.

Persona 4 Revival is finally confirmed, but the JRPG's lead has me excited for the possibility of Persona 6: "We are actively preparing for the future development of the Persona series"

Thankfully, Carbon Ore deposits are plentiful as long as you search in the right regions of the desert, and we've got their locations on the Dune Awakening map laid out below, so you can start leaving the early game and moving to th༒e mid-game constructionsܫ easily enough.

Carbon Ore deposits look similar to the Copper Ore deposits that you've seen in the starting regions of the game, only with white crystals instead of blue ones. You need to build a Cutteray Mk. 2 in order to harvest Carbon Ore, so take some time to gather materials in the Vermillius Gap region before cont🃏inuing north in search of Carbon.

A Cutteray Mk. 2 requires Iron Ingots and EMF Generators to craft (af♐ter you've unlocked the recipe via research), and both of those resources can be found in Vermillius Gap. Iron Ingots are mined from ore deposits throughout the region, and EMF Generators are Fremen materials located 💃in moisture-sealed caves.

A Cutteray Mk. 2 can harvest Carbon Ore with a good efficiency rating, so you'll get a decent chunk of Carbon Ore from each boulder. Upgraded Cutterays will yield even more Carbon from each deposit, though, and leveling up your Planetologist skills will allow you to ext𓃲ract even more on top of that.

The Jabal Eifrit Al-Janub region is slaver territory and the journey there takes you over wide stretches of open sand, so preparation is crucial if yo♕u want to survive. You can set up a second base in the region once you arrive, though, and that'll help you establish a foothold in the area so you can hunt for Carbon Ore deposits without worrying too much about water or supplies.

While you can unlock recipes that require Carbon Ore early on in Dune: Awakening, it's not a good idea to head too far north until you've crafted some upgraded weapons and armor using the Iron Ore found in Vermillius Gap. Upgrading your sandbike, the first of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dune Awakening vehicles, with faster treads and a stronger engine will help you avoid sandworms along the way, too. Watch out for quicksand and drumsand when you cross the dunes! For more help escaping 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Sandworms in Dune Awakening, we have a guide on dealing with them.

All that Carbon Ore can be used to produce Steel Ingots, but you'll need a bunch of Iron Ingots and a steady supply of water in order to 🔴refine everything. You can get all of that in Vermillius Gap, though, so you won't have to visit any dangerous area☂s like the Jabal Eifruit Al-Janub region.

Want more help in the harsh world of Arrakis? Find out all the best 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dune Awakening tips in our handy survival guidebook, or check out all the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Dune Awakening skills to know what talents and abilities you should make your first priority!

Although Silksong didn't get a proper trailer during the showcase, it was briefly shown as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox revealed its two new handhelds, along with the mention that Silksong "will be available at launch when the Ally releases later this year." The two handhelds are set to launch this holiday season (as in, near Christmas) in select market🐓s, but we can actually expect Silksong to arrive sooner.

As spotted by Twitter user Daily Silksong News (someone who'll no doub𒅌t be pleased to actually have some new information to feast on, and good for them), Matthew "൲Leth" Griffin, a marketing and publishing employee at Hollow Knight studio Team Cherry, : "I confirmed BEFORE Holiday – we are not tied to a console release." A further message clarifies that Griffin is indeed referring to "Christmas, yes."

Griffin also made this same point during the Xbox Games Showcase livestream, according to a chat𓂃 screenshot from , likely capture🃏d before being drowned out by a flurry of fans chanting "SKONG."

There's still no full release date to be seen, but folks, it feels closer than eve✱r. Hang in there.

While you're here, be sure to check out our roundup of everything announced at the Xbox Games Showcase.

I mean, it's literally called the ROG Xbox🦩 Ally, and there's a more powerful variant, the ROG Xbox Ally X, keepin꧃g in theme with the Xbox Series X branding.

According to the – read our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:ROG Xb🅺ox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X breakdown fo🎐r more – it's pretty darn similar from that perspective as well, despite the Xbox versions having newer chips and faster SSDs. That, unfortunately, will likely see a higher entry price than the existing ROG Allies, which already retail at $650 for a 2023 512GB model.

Still, in a for the newly announced devices, various Xbox♓ representatives brand the new handhelds as something uniquely Xbox. "This is a breakthrough moment," says Carl Ledbetter of Microsoft's Device Design Team.

"For me, it feels like h🎃olding an Xbox," 🉐says program manager Casey Bates.

Indeed, this isn't literally just a re-branded Asus device; it does have a new design apparently intended to replicate the feel of holding an Xbox controller, with "contoured grips created with player comfort in mind," according to a breakdown from . It also has a dedicated Xbox button like the one in the middle of the Xbox controller, as well aဣs handheld-optimized Game Bar and Xbox app.

Even so, I'm a little surprised that Microsoft opted to align itself so closely wi🌺th an existing handheld for what was long-rumored to be a completely original Xbox device.

"You pick it up, it looks like an Xbox, it feels like an Xbox, it plays like an X🗹box," insists Microsoft Game Studios creative director💛 Ken Lobb.

In fairness, it's a little early to make any real judgments on the Xbox Ally, and with no official price attached, we can't possibly know if it'll deliver on the "great value" promise Xbox is making right now. But I've heard companies talk up great value on new devices before, and it's often followed by a premium p༒rice.

In the meantime, read our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:ROG Xbox Ally X hands-on preview to find out why it's almost everything we want from an Xbox handheld.

Instead of a "blank slate" stranger, explains game director Brandon Adler🔴, The Outer Worlds 2 starts you as an Earth Directorate agent. "You can think of them as like space cowboys or space sky marshals," he says. "They're the good guys that go into places and kind of fix everything that's wrong."

What kind of agent you are is up to you. This is where backgrounds come in. Your background decides "who you were prior to joini🌸ng the Earth Directorate," so says the in-game menu, shaping your character's h꧟istory and influencing some interactions and conversations in the rest of your playthrough.

We saw a few backgrounds today. 🧸Ex-Convict, Gambler, Lawbringer, Professor♒, Renegade, and Roustabout.

Lawbringer is about what it sounds like: you survived a tough upbringing and want to bring order to the colonies as a champion of the people. The Professor has a background in archaeology and is no stranger to "the more unsavory elements of artifact trafficking." As a Renegade, you're a bit of a nomadic outlaw, kinda-sorta on the👍 run from old employers and hiding out under the Earth Directorate umbrella.

And then we have the Roustabout. "You're not quite sure what happened," its backgro𒐪und description begins. "You simply wanted to find a job tꦑhat used your particular set of skills. Which would be 'none.' Yet, one accidental death of a well-known villain later, you're now known as a gunslinging Earth Directorate agent not to be trifled with. You often find yourself wondering if this 'Earth Directorate' has any good cashier openings."

This, folks, is one of my favorite tropes. The over-hyped hero who's inwardly an anxious, average-at-best, probably panicking dude unsure why these expectations have been heaped upon him and even less sure how to live up to them. The Outer Worlds 2 strikes me as a deeply funny game so far, I trust Obsidian to guide that tone well, and the Roustabout sounds like a perfect match for the game's universe. I'm dreaming of an agent stumbling and bumbling his way to victory through inordinately high Luck and virtually nothing else, slowly developing actual skills that may one day turn him into the hero🦋 he's thought to be, and it sounds like a great time.

The Outer Worlds 2 gets an October release date as Obsidian opens pre-orders and confirms that 2 story expansions are on their way.

Following up on the upcoming♋ remake's debut trailer, P-Studio director Kazuhisa Wada talks about Persona 4 Revival in a new – a post that also discusses some of the team's future plans. First, however, Wada takes some tim🌺e to dive further into the hotly anticipated details surrounding the freshly revealed remake.

"We are very pleased to announce the release of Persona 4 Revival," writes the lead.

"We look forward to sharing even more info🎃rmation in due time," he continues. "Persona 4 has spawned numerous spin-off works, including TV anime, Persona 4 Arena, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, and Persona 4: Dancing All Night, and is a special title that has been a part of Atlus for many years and holds a personal place in my heart. We are currently working on this project with all our passion and love."

Wada goes on,🃏 stating that P-Studio is certain Persona 4 Revival will appeal to both familiar fans and new players 𒆙alike: "We are confident that this will be a fresh and surprising product for both newcomers and long-time fans, and we look forward to sharing it with you all."

Then, the director adds a surprising message – one that has Persona ✱players (it's mꦛe, I'm Persona players) convinced that a sixth entry is underway.

"Additionally, we are acti🀅vely preparing for the future development of the Persona series as a studio," concludes the lead. "We are working hard to meet the expectations of fans around the world, and our work is progressing well. Please stay tuned for more updates. We look forward to your continued support of the Persona series."

As 💯one fan points out in the replies, this last bit "reads like a soft Persona 6 announcement."

There's no telling what Wada really means with his cryptic comment there, but we manifested Persona 4 Revival with how strongly we all believed in it (or so I tell myself) – so let's try to do the same with a potential 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Persona 6 now.

Looking for more澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: new games to wishlist? Here's a full rundown of the澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: Summer Game Fest 2025 schedule to keep your calendar up to date.

Ninja Gaiden 4 is the first game in the brutally tough, spectacle fighting series in about 13 years, and a lot has changed since Ryu was last stabbing foes. The 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Game Showcase 2025 gave us just a brief new look at Ninja Gaiden 4's updated ꦫformula, alongside an October 21, 2025 release date.

"When PlatinumGames speaks to Team Ninja about this next Ninja Gaiden, we often joke that 'we've made something that really doesn't feel like a modern game—it's just too hard,'" Nakao joked in a chat with . "These days, games are trending toward being easier to play, but Ninja Gaiden 4 ♛goes in the complete opposite direction. So don't lose heart!"

Elsewhere in the interview, the lead developer reminisced about growing up during "the golden age" of classic action games that are now a rare sight. "For people of my generation, it feels like the types of games we grew up playing have become a lot less common in recent years. Instead, we've seen the rise of Soul🧸slike games, which have certainly become very popular."

Not wanting to give a𝄹nyone the wrong impression, Nakao notes that he's also a fan of your Dark Soulses and Dark Souls-like games. They're good fun. Still, he can't help but feel that a certain type of action got left behind. And the glut of Soulslikes revealed at Summer Game Fest so far is only backing him up.

"Maybe it's just my own wishful thinking, but I can't help but feel that a lot of action game fans are starting to crave that experience again," he continueওd.

"Isn't it about time we all dove back in? I really feel like Ni෴nja Gaiden 4 has turned out to be the kind of game that could🌜 strike a chord with those fans of the genre. If it could carve out its place in the history of modern slash-action, and as a new benchmark for the genre, I'd be thrilled. And if Ninja Gaiden 4 could serve as a spark that reignites excitement around slash-action games, then that would be even better."

Grounded 2's𝓀 executive producer, following the Xbox Games Showcase: "Pretty much from day one we knew we wanted to return to Game Preview for Grounded 2."

Early access is a great way for devs to develop their games based off player feedback, and while teams of playtestersꦯ are a standard part of the development process, games that have huge communities such as Grounded benefit greatly from an early access period.

"Sure, it comes with som🃏e trade-offs like 'the game's not done, and it's out to the world'," Morgan admits. "But there's so much value in build♒ing it alongside the community."

This development model can't exactly be faulted when taking a look at the success of Grounded and its dedicated community of players. An early access period a💯lso means that with this reveal, players don't get slapped with a 2026 release date and instead will get to dive in as soon as next mont💎h.

Sure, the game isn't going to be polished and some pretty big bugs – not the literal kind thaꦇt are found in the game – will most likely be present. But players will be excited regardless to join the community effort of helping to make Grounded 2 into somethi💯ng worthy of its predecessor.

The Outer Worlds 2 gets an October release date as Obsidian opens pre-orders and confirms that 2 story expansions are on their way.

The Psychonauts studio has been quiet for a while, but it just reared both of its heads at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Game Showcase 2025 to reveal a third-person adventure game that's intಞe♍ntionally hard to categorize. There are some puzzles, some exploration, lots of mind-bending sights, and, gosh darn, how did they make a lighthouse cute!?

The setup is that a stray bird causes a really old lighthouse to crumble down. Then, some♐how, the lighthouse stands using ingrown roots as its feet, pat-pat-pattering across a fantastical world while trying not to topple over again. You⛦ can help it along its way when Keeper comes to Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Game Pass on October 17, 2025.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Doubl🍸e Fine has multiple projects in development right now, and this one's led by Lee Petty, who was previously the art director on the met🐓al open world Brutal Legend and the main game director of Rad, Headhunter, and Stacking. Petty made Keeper with a slightly different approach, though.

"When it came 𒆙time to work on a new project, Lee was keen to start from a place that could not be so simply categorized by its genre, defined by its mechanics, or summarized by its setting," an explains. "Instead, he wanted to explore the blurring of genres and to create room for something more atmospheric – a space for the player to really live inside, and take in the vibes."

Keeper apparently spawned from the isolation Petty felt during the pandemic, around the time t꧟hat Double Fine was wrapping up its last game, Psychonauts 2.

For now, check out the full 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest schedule so you don't miss a single thing.

The next game in the series is expected to be Forza Horizon 6, although we have no firm confirmation of that from Xbox. However, Spencer took the stage during today's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Games Showcase to share that the ne𒁃xt Forza, whatever it ends up being, will release in 2026.

Curiously, he also said 2026 will see "the return of a classic that's been with us since the beginning." Now just what could that be? Looking at the original 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox's launch lineup, there's qui🌳te a few titles that could technically qualify, but th🐈at also massively depends on how you define a "classic."

🥀The obvious that first comes to mind is Halo, and with Halo Infinite now somehow being close to five years old, I suppose it's not out of the realm of possibility that we'll see something Halo-related next year, even if it's just a remake or remaster of the OG Halo Combat Evolved.

We haven't seen a Project Gotham Racing game since 20꧑09's Ferrari Edition, so maybe it's that? Who knows, we're really just taking stabs in the dark at thi꧒s point, but my point is, I'd be very surprised if it were the 2001 Shrek platformer Spencer is teasing here.

In the meantime, you can peruse our list of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming Xbox Series X games we know to be on the release calendar for 2025 and beyond.

Now, players get to see what all the hype is about with the world premiere trailer at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Games Showcase, displaying a 3v3 tag-team fighting game that allows fans to play as theꦕir favorite heroes fight allies or enemies. Invincible VS will not only provide ranked and casual modes for the online multiplayer fighting, but also a single player story campaign.

The title also appears to offer some multiveജrse aspects, as we see an alternate version of Nolan Grayson in the trailer, fighting against Mark alongside Viltrumites. If the Invincible multiverse is being taken into account, players can expect endless match-up potential.

As per Skybound's press release, Invincible VS will be a "brutal, tournament-quality, 3v3 tag fighting game that lets players become a superhero in the bloodiest fight in the universe." While Skybound has developed and published many games – including another title adapted from Kirkman's world, The Walking D🌜ead: The Final Season, this will be their first major game developed by Skybound's in-house gaming studio.

This gory title asks players to wait just a bit for its release, with it slated for 2026, the same year season 4 of the Invincible TV adaptation is🐬 set to release. Invincible VS will also be a console-exclusive title, and feature Xbox Play Anywhere capabilities.

Bioshock-esque RPG Clockwork Revolution continues to look promising in new trailer, but we'll have to wait as the release date will be unveiled in "due time"

During the Outer Worlds 2 Direct immediately following the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Game Showcase, Obsidian did very little to fight 🍒the 'Fallout in space' label that was applied to the first game. Of course, as the developers of Fallout: New Vegas, that's not something Obsidian needs to fight, but this time, it seems to be leaning even further into the comparison.

That's thanks to its new take on Perks. Game director Brian Adler explained that "if anybody's played Fallout: New Vegas, they'll be very fami✨liar with the Perks system. We basically borrowed that, but went even grander."

The Outer Worlds 2, Adler says, will have even more Perks t💯han New Vegas did, suggesting that there'll be well in excess of 100 ways in which you can change up your character's approach. The team at Obsidian outlined a few of them, and the focus on some stealthy, assassination-y improvements is definitely speakinಌg to me.

For example, there's the simply-named 'Assassin' perk, which grants a boost of 🔯speed if you get a stealth kill, making it easier to chain together multiple takedowns, or to slip into the shadows. There's also a slightly more morbid Serial Killer perk, which lets you steal the hearts from non-aggressive characters you slay, usin꧋g these 'trophies' to bolster your health.

And while these are bonuses, Obsidian's allowing you to lock in a few Flaws, too. I fancy a challenge, and am now a man in my 30s, so I feel like the 'Bad Knees' flaw - which creates a loud popping noise when your character comes out of a crouch - will add a certain realism to my Outer Worlds 2 playthrough. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Outer Worlds 2 is cꦕomi💜ng in October, so there's not long to wait to try out its New Vegas-style Perk system for your🎃self.

Never miss an announcement with our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest 2025 schedule.

The news came following the Xbox Games Showcase in an , where the developer also gav🐻e a firs༺t look at Gears of War: Reloaded in action.

The pairing makes for a compelling anniversary celebration for the Gears of War franchise, which debuted back in 2006 on Xboxไ 360. Reloaded is set to launch on August 26, 2025, and marks the first time the series has landed on a PlayStation platform. It's shapinꦡg up to be a pretty dazzling remaster of the 2015 remake of the original game, and should be considered essential ahead of E-Day.

That's because Gears of War: E-Day is a prequel, tracking the events of the original Emergence Day – often referred to by characters in the series, but never properly detailed. E-Day is when the Locust initi🌃ated a planet-wide assault on the surface of Sera, and the 2026 prequel will let us experience the horrors firsthand. This origin story will delve into the early life of protagonist Marcus Fenix, detail the making of the Lancer, and reunite us with Marcus' bestie, Dom Santiago.

Xbox has yet to set a firm 2026 release date for Gears of War: E-Day, but we do know that it'll land on PC, Xbox Series X, and will be available on day one through Game Pass Ultimate. There is no word yet on whether E-Day will follow Reloaded onto the PS5, although it would be a safe bet to assume that it 🌄will eventually.

Xbox Games Showcase 2025 needs to build on Microsoft's momentum, but it may need to go beyond The Outer Worlds 2 to pull it off.

The Coalition was on hand at the Xbox Games Showcase with a new trailer, with an confirming that pre-orders are now open for Gears of War: Reloaded, and if you get yours locked in, you'll be able to access a couple of special multiplayer beta weekends towards the end of June (for players on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X, and Game Pass Ultimate subscribers). Existin🅷g owners of Gears of War: Ultimate Edition will also be able to access the beta, as they are being treated to a free Reloaded upgrade anywayꦕ this August.

Better still, the Gears of War will feature cross-platform multiplayer between all of these pl🌃atforms for the very first time. Speaking with GamesRadar+, The Coalition's CVP Kate Rayner says that the beta "is a chance for us to really test at scale the cross-platform play experience. We're really excited for players to get their hands on it."

The Coalition's Studio Head Mike Crump adds: "This will be a great way to get people back in, and it gives us an opportunity 💧to test everything before we launch in August – to make sure that the servers are ready for big numbers!"

Gears of War: Reloaded is coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X on August 26, 2025. Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers will be able to access it from day one, and for the rest of you first-time adopters, it'll come in at a 𝓡budget price of $39.99.

Xbox Games Showcase 2025 needs to build on Microsoft's momentum, but it may need to go beyond The Outer Worlds 2 to pull it off.

But Black Ops 7 isn't immediately following the events of its predecessor. Instead, the upcoming FPS is set some 40 years later – taking place in 2035, in a world ravaged by violent conflict and psychological warfare following the events of B✃lack Ops 2 and Black Ops 6.

"As a team, our vision from the start was to create a back-to-back series experience for our players that embraced the uni🧜queness of the Black Ops sub-franchise," says Matt Cox, general manager of Call of Duty. "The Black Ops universe is amazing. The creativity and imagination that goes into the storytelling, the rich character depth, and the incredible moment-to-moment gameplay across all modes is really exceptional."

Activision isn't ready to go into too much detail on how gameplay is going to evolve from the introduction of omni-movement in 2024. We know that Black Ops 7 is being developed by Treyarch and Raven Softwaဣre (t✤he same team handled Black Ops 6, with Raven taking lead on the campaign, while Treyarch oversaw the multiplayer and overall vision for the package), and that it will have you wield 'cutting-edge technology' as David Mason and his team fight back against a mysterious enemy force weaponizing fear across the world.

GamesRadar+ can also confirm that the Black Ops 7 campaign can be played solo or with friends, with the new entry featuring an 'innovative' co-op support. Round-b🍬ased zombies will also return as you head into the heart of Dark Aether, and the multiplayer experience will feature 'brand-new maps' and 'near-future weaponry'.

Black Ops 7 will get a full reveal later this summer. Activision has also confirmed that Black Ops 7 🦹will be released later this year on PC (via Battle.net, Xbox, and Steam), PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One. The title will also be available from day one on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass.

Xbox Games Showcase 2025 needs to build on Microsoft's momentum, but it may need to go beyond The Outer Worlds 2 to pull it off.

Revealed at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Games Showcase 2025, At Fate🃏's End is a gorgeous side-scrolling action꧂-adventure game where you "fight the ones you love," and it's coming to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5 next year.

The game has a similarly jaw-dropping art style as Thunder Lotus' other titles – this time, w🦩ith a seemingly hand-drawn 2D comic look – but the developer is jumping to yet another genre.

The trailer above puts a lot of emphasis on At Fate's End's frantic platforming combat, which sees you zipping across the battlefield to dodge projectiles, side-step m🐬assive lightning blasts, and lock swords with your foes/family iﷺn what looks like mostly one-to-one battles.

"Wield the legendary God Sword Aesus as Shan, the deft young heiress of the Hemlock clan. Explore a lush, hand-crafted fantasy world," the game♏'s description reads. "Defeat the foul creatures of the realm in combat. Solve intricate narrative puzzles, uncover painful truths, and hone both your blade skills and knowledge to face your estranged siblings in intense, emotional duels – and ultimately decide your family's fate."

Alongside epic, viol💮ent confrontations, you'll also be dueling your siblings with words. A sharp tongue and carefully chosen dialogue will apparently be just as important as your twitch reflexes if you hope to gain the upper hand.

It's kind of surprising that it took Sea of Thieves seven years to properly introduce smuggling as its own dedicated role with seemingly unique mechanics and loot, but here we are. During the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Games Showcase꧟ today, Rare took the stage with a cinematic trailer for the update, teasing a whole new faction for the smuggling-minded, "explosive" new loot, and a new set of smuggling-centဣric voyages.

It seems like details are still pretty light at the moment, but, at the very least, we're getting a new faction, which is cool. Otherwise, it seems like 𓃲a pretty typical new Sea of Thieves season with some new loot and voyages to uncover.

This could be a stretch, bu🌃t it also looks like some iteration of the keg row💮boats from the Lost Sands update are coming back. If so, it's obviously nothing new, but those were one of the most chaotic – and, thus, enjoyable – additions to the game in recent memory, so I'd be happy to see them return.

There's still no release date for season 17, but with season 16 only going live a couple of w𝕴eeks ago and the standard duration between seasons being roughly three months – I'd be surprised to see it release any time soon.

In the meantime, find out where Sea of Thieves docked on our list of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best online games to play right now.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade - the second part of the remake trilogy - appeared at the Xbox Game Showcase, with Square Enix announcing that Cloud and co would be available on Xbox Series X|S this winterꦗ. There's no exact release date for that just yet, but we do know that it's arriving this winter, so that should mean a launch🔯 somewhere in the next six to nine months.

That should give you just about enough time to play ඣthe other Final Fantasy game that's heading to Xbox. Final Fantasy 16, which originally launched on PS5 in Jꦐune 2023 before making the jump to PC in September 2024, will be available on Xbox later today. For a massive JRPG like that, six months feels like a decent amount of time to make your way through everything.

If you're an Xbox fan who's been holding out on Final Fantasy over the past few years, then you're in for a treat. Our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 16 review said it "stands among the series' greats", while our 澳💮洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade review described "a loving reimagining of the original." Both of those were 9/10 scores, so you know you're getting a whole heap of excellent ꦺJRPG gameplay. And the fact that you'll pr🥃etty much get to stack them back-to-back means that if you want, you could probably be playing a pair of genre bangers for a whole chunk of the rest of this year.

Never miss an announcement with our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest 2025 schedule.

No release date for the game was announced, but a brief trailer showed some seriously glowed-up city streets that'll be instantly familiar to an♔yone who's played the 2008 PS2 original. To my eye, it looks a lot more impressive than Persona 3 Reload, but we'll have to wait and see what the final product looks like because this is just a tiny teaser.

You could probably call any game in the Persona series a fan-favorite, but that seems to be particularly true of Persona 4. This was an uber-late PS2 release that landed well into the PS3 era, and still stands confidently in comparison to the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best JRPGs out there thanks to its effortless style, fantastic combat system, and memorable cast of characters. A whoꦰle new generation is about to learn why JRPG fans of a certain age idolize Chiꦑe.

Persona 4 is already easily accessible to modern players thanks t🌺o its Golden version, which was released for 💦Vita in 2012 and is available on most modern systems today. The biggest question lingering over Revival is likely how much of the Golden content will make it in at launch, since with Persona 3 Reload we had to wait for DLC to get similar old expansions on board. Either way, it's going to feel real good to sink another hundred hours into a Persona game when this remake finally launches.

This latest trailer boasts character customization, something darker lurking in the shadows, baddies that so perfectly make you want to punch them, and a time manipulation mechanic. Whether it's for getting the upper ha🌱nd in combat, or altering the past to save the future, it appears this will♚ play a major role in the upcoming title.

Clockwork Revolution will feature choice-based dialogue and FPS mechanics, set in the Tangle, the underground of the beautiful city of Avalon, run by Lady Ironwood who has played with the strings of time 🐻herself.

The Bioshock Infinite-reminiscent title will be available to Game Pass Ultimate subscribers day one, as is the usual promise now with any Xbox Studios published games. While there's no mention of Xbox Play Anywhere, there's a ꧑good chance it will be a capability come release.

Unfortunately, Clockwork Revolution has no set release date, simply a promise that it's "coming in due time." Until then, this five minute tr🅰ailer will have to hold players over with what it promises.

3 years after telling us Hollow Knight Silksong would release in 1 year, Xbox once again hints vaguely at a release date, this time linked to its new handheld

Just revealed at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Games Showcase 2025, Beast of Reincarnation takes place in the far, far future of 4026, in an era where humanity is all bu♕t extinct - massive fantasy beasties, corrupt automatons, and dangerous plant-based creatures nꦚow roam the land.

But our main protag (and her gorgeous wolf friend) has the skills to protect herself, at least. The brief looks at action place Beast of Reincarnation somewhere between Sekiro and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nier Automata. Plenty of feisty, parry-focused sword swingin🎶g, with a d♈ash of acrobatic movement.

Oh, and those massive boss fights? 2026 can't come soon enou♓gh, which is exactly when Beast of Reincarnation is due to launch for PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5.

You might remember Beast of Reincarnation was 🃏first announced, very early, in 2023 as Project Bloom. At the time, Game Freak said the game was "bold and tonally different from our prior work." That's very evident from the dire, speedy trailer above.

"In post-apocalyptic Japan, a land ruined by corruption and crawling with monstrous beasts, hum𝓰anity’s last hope may rest with Emma—an outcast cursed as a Blighted One—and Koo, her loyal canine companion," the trailer's description reads. "Survive a journey across an ominous, ever-changing world where dangerous forests can erupt in the wasteland."

"Explore what ♏it means to be human in Beast of Reincarnation, an expansive one-person, one-dog action RPG b🐓uilt around demanding, technical combat."

I've been just short of obsessed with Blood of Dawnwalker since it was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:revealed earlier this year, and although its seemingly 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:rich vampiric lore still has its jagged teeth sunk into me, I've reserved becoming fully obsessed until I see some gameplay. Well, now along with the whole world I h🌃ave seen gameplay, and yup, I'm full-blown obsessed now.

Dawnwalker's first gameplay trailer, debuted during today's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Games Showcase, not only shows off plenty of perfectly violent combat—at one point the player character slices som🍷eone's head clean off—we also see some exploration, including said character seemingly scaling a vertical wall with a gravity-defying effortlessness. Like, h𒊎e's not climbing it; he's just walking up a vertical wall. I guess that's a perk of his human/vampire hybrid DNA.

There's even a brief glimpse of the game's open-world during daylight, and I have to say, you can really tell these folks worked on The Witcher 3. Somethi♎ng about the scale of the world, not to mention its snow-capped, jagged peaks, reminds me of CDPR's fantasy opus.

Anyway, the most exciting news for me is that Blood of Dawnwalker isn't several years away; it's due out sometime in 2026, which somehow is only six months away🐻 now. Get 🐻those wooden stakes ready, Dawnwalkers, we're almost there.

Former Witcher 3 lead says his new vampire RPG Blood of Dawnwalker has a smaller open world because "it feels more like you actually know the place" compared to "behemoths"
