Fallen Aces is an upcoming shooter from New Blood Interactive that looks like it’s from the 1930s but clearly plays like it’s from the 1990s. That’s a good thing, for the record—or at least it is in this case. The new nine minutes of gameplay premiered today during Realms Deep 2023, and shows what seems…
I’m always here for some hack’n’slash action—and that’s exactly what Necrofugitive promises to offer. Developed by Black Garden Studios, the game centres around a runaway monster hounded by mediaeval knights after a brutal witch hunt. It’s just dropped another gameplay trailer as part of Realms Deep. The basic premise is this: you’re The Prisoner, you…
Even in an historic year for RPGs, I’m still damn thirsty for more updates to Dread Delusion, an indie RPG set on the cursed asteroids orbiting a small red star. As part of the Realms Deep 2023 showcase, DreadXP revealed a first look at the game’s Clockwork Kingdom coming later this fall. Dread Delusion’s the…
Bright, bloody and blaring boomer shooter Prodeus is getting an expansion. Announced at this year’s Realms Deep event, Prodeus: Elder Veil adds some new wrinkles to the base game’s bombastic gameplay, by which I mean a grappling hook and a spear. All shooters need a grappling hook and a spear. I’m not entirely sure what…
As part of the Realms Deep 2023 showcase, 3D Realms has shown off the first post-early access launch addition to Cultic, an absolute steal of a shooter that PC Gamer contributor Dominic Tarason dubbed “2022’s grungiest retro FPS.” Cultic might be the perfect October game: a retro shooter with a uniquely saturated, comic book look…
Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory is already a rather sinister affair, but Twisted Tower, revealed at this year’s Realms Deep showcase, is determined to take that concept and dial it up a few more notches. It’s a game that looks to mash together a generous helping of BioShock’s 1920s art deco setting with Roald Dahl’s eerie…
Atooi boss talks Hatch Tales’ delays and reviving a cult classic. Over 15 years since its initial release on the Nintendo DS, horror FPS Dementium: The Ward is getting a re-release on the Nintendo Switch eShop, utilising the 2015 3DS remaster as its foundation. While its creepy low-fi visuals and disturbing creature design have attracted…
It happens again for the fifth time since I began Starfield: During a conversation with an NPC, my companion, trapped by an airlock or some obscure gnarl in the level architecture, chimes in from a completely different room. During his lines, the camera swivels in the direction of wherever he is on the map. The…
We mean Soccer, not that ‘other’ football. Updated with EA Sports FC 24. Enjoy! Football is the world’s most popular sport, from the elite level of child-like millionaires with dazzling skills and impressive diving techniques, to actual children on playgrounds using jumpers for goalposts. Being a football / soccer fan that owns a Switch, however,…
When Gabe Amatangelo stepped into the director role for Cyberpunk 2077 in May 2021, morale among the team was low. The RPG had sold 13 million copies, yet was plagued with bugs and ran so poorly on older consoles it was pulled from sale on the PlayStation Store. And despite the incredible detail and density…
