Before we get to the latest trailer for S-Game's soulslike Phantom Blade Zero I have a couple of complaints to lodge about the title. Firstly, this game clearly contains a non-zero quantity of blades, from whacking great axes to katanas. Secondly, I do not accept the premise that these are phantom blades. They are very obviously non-spectral, going by the amount of stabbing and clanging on show in the video. With these potentially ruinous caveats out of the way, I am now free to tell you more about a game that looks like it's out to eat Sekiro's lunch. Read more View the full article
Blumhouse Games has revealed its spine-chilling new project at Summer Games Fest. Only it isn’t just one project cooking; it’s a whole load of them.

Upon seeing the reveal of Petal Runner at tonight's Day of the Devs showcase, one thought immediately came to this writer's head: "Good lord, that looks like the coziest game possible so far." Coming from iam8bit and ********* developers Nano Park Studios, the game is a slice-of-life RPG about a courier who delivers virtual pets to people that are literally powered by flowers and claibrated by playing minigames, with the help of a talking fox-like companion, all presented with a cute anime style in an homage to old-school Game Boy ****** games, down to the 8-bit pixel art with heavy doses of lavender. It's practically the gaming equivalent of a weighted blanket and the world's largest mug of hot cocoa, enjoyed in front of the toastiest fireplace possible. It almost feels like it heads toward dangerous levels of coziness, as if it were the comfy chair. If you don't believe us, check out the trailer below and see what vibes it gives you.

The long-awaited return of EA’s Skate franchise, simply called Skate, is getting closer and closer to an eventual release with a console playtest confirmed for later this year. At Summer Game Fest in early June, the team at EA showed off pre-pre-alpha footage, which many focused on a team of skaters grinding around San Vansterdam, to the chagrin of the adversarial corporation M-Corp. In the trailer, the devs don’t promise an official date, but ensured players they’re “still working on it” right now. View the full article
Grid-based puzzler Grindstone was a favourite of Katharine’s, who found it to be her go-to during regularly scheduled moments of “cat-based paralysis”. I didn’t spent quite so many hours of feline enforced stasis with it, but I too was drawn in for a respectable time chunk. It’s those detail-stuffed visuals and caffeinated animations that tipped it for me, and it’s the same art that have me excited for Capybara’s follow-up. Battle Vision Network is an online puzzle battler that pits you head to head against real-life humans (boo those guys). The conceit here is its a televised space sport, in which you’ll steer the fate of its ongoing story arcs by winning or losing as your chosen team. Read more View the full article
Things that weren’t on my Summer Game Fest bingo card: a surprise appearance from I Think You Should Leave’s Tim Robinson. Things also not on my Summer Geoff Fest bingo card: that Tim Robinson would show up to reassure us that, yes, Skate is still in the works. Read more View the full article
When the Summer Game Fest trailer for "narrative-centric cosy game" Wanderstop said it was from the creator behind The Stanley Parable, I thought I had surely entered a different dimension where The Stanley Parable was actually a wholesome shop-keeping sim rather than a zig-zagging office-based nightmare. Then Wanderstop started to get rather bleak, and I finally stopped pinching myself. See for yourself. Read more View the full article
There's a chance that when you think of developer Capybara Games, your mind goes towards more action-oriented titles like Super Time Force and Below. But upon closer inspection, it seems that their forte ***** in puzzlers games as well, having developed such games as Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes and Grindstone, the latter arguably being one of the best puzzle games in recent years, So it was quite the treat to see tonight's Day of the Devs showcase kick things off proper with the announcement of a new puzzle game from them, Battle Vision Network. As seen in its debut trailer below, it's bold, it's colorful, it's creative, it's insane, and it's something that might be a bit of a gamble, but one that could easily pay off big time if ********* properly.

Today's appearance brought us a first look at an entirely new monster, which we'll be taking on in the game. Read more View the full article
