If there’s one thing I’ve taken away from Wanderstop’s trailer during The PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, it’s that the development seems to have been massively cathartic for creative director Davey Wreden. The brain behind both The Stanley Parable and The Beginner’s Guide admitted the creation of those games left him “unbelievably burned out,” which…
Combat in Drivers of the Apocalypse, which debuted today at the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, looks absolutely ludicrous, with the eponymous mercenaries flying from car to car as they plow through sand dunes and blow the rest of their convoy to smithereens. While vehicular combat has received a surprising amount of affection from developers…
It takes a lot for an action RPG to stand out given how packed the genre is right now. The upcoming Hell Clock, recently debuted and featured in The PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, is seemingly banking on its striking, historical setting; a dark fantasy dive into Brazilian history, circa 1986. (The name “Hell Clock”…
Indie studio Irregular Shapes just announced its debut release, City Tales – Medieval Era, at The PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted today. The colorful City Tales will emphasize organic city planning that lets your cities grow as you go, rather than being planned from the start. It’s also—clearly—going to have a lot of unique personality,…
In some ways it’s surprising that a football game like Copa City has taken this long to happen. The on-pitch action and the managerial side of the world’s most popular sport are already well-served by the EA Sports FC and Football Manager series’, but the business and logistical side of the game—especially when it gets…
Hotline Miami was one of those mold-breaking, genre-defining indie games that others have been attempting to mimic for ages, but few look or sound as distinct as Sonokuni, which dropped a fresh new trailer during our PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted showcase. Turn up the volume and check out what Japanese hip-hop artists-turned-game-devs Don Yasa…
In a trailer spot at this year’s PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, we caught another glimpse of Island of Winds, a unique-looking adventure game based on Icelandic folklore and set during the 17th century on the Island—or at least a version of the island. You play as a “Balance Keeper” named Brynhildur, who’s sent on…
Done right, robots can make a super satisfying videogame enemy. The one thing Binary Domain got right was its robots, who dented and broke and dragged themselves toward you even after you shot their legs off. From the dinosaurs in Horizon Zero Dawn to the turrets in Portal, we love a metal jerk AI bad…
Ever wonder what the world of Zootopia would be like if it was a 1950s noir world? Me neither, but it turns out it looks awesome, folks. Wild Tactics is a story-driven strategy game about a team of anti-organized-crime animals fighting to return peace to their city’s utopian project: Let all animals live in peace….
Look, I’m no paragon of neatness. In fact, most would consider me a slob, but Judatone & Krumb Games’ upcoming retro FPS mech-shooter Mekkablood: Quarry Assault is a reminder that even I draw the line somewhere. With only a couple months until the game’s January release (exact date not yet dialed in), there’s still time…
