Destroy All Humans remake release date trailer

I wasn’t sure what to expect after Resident Evil 3 (2020) and Savior’s Final Fantasy 7 Remake Review but the Destroy all humans remake is looking like a blast while sticking faithfully close to the classic. I can’t wait to see what becomes of this. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla reveal trailer

I’m the first to admit, while I’ve fallen out of touch with the Assassin’s Creed series, this trailer is pretty damn badass. I’m kind of curious how a viking era Creed game can go. I can’t wait to see what the gameplay looks like. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope reveal trailer

I’m sad to say I missed the last installment of this blooming anthology, Little  Hope looks pretty promising. I’m a huge fan of Until Dawn and I’m curious to see what kind of horror we can see next. I’ll definitely keep an eye on this one. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Pirates Outlaws Out Now on Steam

Independent game developer Fabled Game Studio today launches a rehauled version of its popular roguelike card game Pirates Outlaws on PC via Steam for £15.49 / $19.99 / €16,79, with a 25% discount in the first week of release.

Originally released to critical acclaim on iOS and Android, Pirates Outlaws is a roguelike card game where you build your deck and develop combos as you become the most notorious pirate to sail the seven seas.

This PC release of Pirates Outlaws removes micro-transactions and features a fully completed Arena with decks and enemies from all six chapters – doubling the content available in the Early Access version. A new buccaneer has arrived to take up the chase! The new hero “Doctor”, with his ability to rise from the dead, will be available for players to conquer the high seas with. Another new addition is a tutorial to help recent recruits to better understand the mechanics of the game. All hands hoy! All loot and additions from the entire six chapters, including the most recent Fabled and Eastern Seas updates, will also be included.

Choose from two game modes: In Navigate, you sail from isle to isle on a procedurally generated map, conquering the seas as you battle outlaws and bosses while building the ultimate deck and refining your combat style. And then there’s the Arena, for players who prefer a greater challenge. Here you are thrown into an arena filled with enemies, armed only with your premade deck and relics, tasked with defeating unique champions as you aim to attain the 20 available trophies in order to unlock special upgrades and new skins.

Build your deck and amass your riches as you set sail in the most engaging deck builder of 2020. Charting your course through a procedurally-generated swashbuckling voyage has never been so captivating. Tactical use of your cards and loot are essential. Manage your ammo, armour and coins and sell unused cards in order to strengthen your deck.

It is now one of the most immersive deck builders around!” said Nicolas Lavergne, Director of Fabled Game Studio. “We can’t wait for the players to enjoy everything Pirates Outlaws has to offer.”

John Wick Hex Coming to PS4 May 5th

Publisher Good Shepherd Entertainment, global content leader Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF.A, LGF.B) and independent developer Bithell Games have announced that the action-oriented timeline strategy game John Wick Hex is coming to PlayStation®4  on May 5.

Building on their work from the original PC title, Bithell Games (Thomas Was Alone, Subsurface Circular) has collaborated with Ant Workshop to redesign John Wick Hex for the PlayStation®4’s DualShock 4 controller. Wick’s every move and skills will be available at your fingertips as quick as the man himself.

John Wick Hex is fight-choreographed chess brought to life. It expands on the John Wick universe with a new storyline, unique graphic noir art design, and the world-class voice talents of Ian McShane, Lance Reddick and Troy Baker. The game also includes a riveting original score by Grammy-nominated composer Austin Wintory (Journey, Flow, the Banner Saga series).

Created in close collaboration with the creative and stunt teams behind Lionsgate’s hit franchise, John Wick Hex captures the unique feel of tactical combat from the films, blurring the line between strategy and action. Each move has its own risks and consequences, and every weapon changes the tactics at hand. Ammo is limited and realistically simulated, so time your reloads and make each choice count.

John Wick Hex will be available for $19.99 on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system via the PlayStation®Store on May 5.
