EVERSPACE 2 developer ROCKFISH Games, being headquartered in Hamburg, couldn't very well pass up on the Cologne-based Gamescom, especially since they've got the Titans DLC coming up soon. Due to launch on September 16 across all platforms (PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X) for a price tag of $15, this is the first story DLC for the space combat game that was fully released in 2023. I caught up with ROCKFISH Games CEO and Co-Founder Michael Schade and Communications Manager Lee Guille to learn more about EVERSPACE 2: Titans and to discuss various aspects of the industry, from their […]
Most long-running live service games eventually try to test the waters with a subscription service, even if the game was really set up for that initially. GTA Online did it, Fallout 76 did it, and now, it seems Rainbow Six Siege is doing it. For $10 a month, you can purchase an “R6 Membership,” which will get you access to all premium battle passes with 10 levels unlocked, time-limited legendary items, and more. You can check out the full rundown, below. “Unlock the ultimate Rainbow Six Siege experience with the R6 Membership! This offer delivers an exclusive drop of content […]
Earlier this week Ubisoft finally shone a light on Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the new Feudal Japan-set RPG-style adventure from the team at Ubisoft Quebec, that was originally known by the codename Assassin’s Creed Red. Since then, a few other tidbits have leaked, including a release date and some details about the game’s DLC and pricing plans. That said, fans were understandably still hungry for more. Well, today Ubisoft dropped the first trailer for Assassin’s Creed Shadows. It’s only cinematic, so we can’t glean too much about how the game might look during actual gameplay, but it provides a pretty in-depth […]
Dead by Daylight is turning eight years old, and Montreal-based series creators Behaviour Interactive had certainly a lot to announce during their big anniversary broadcast. Plenty of new detail was provided about the new Dungeons & Dragons update, although we also learned that a Castlevania chapter is on the way later this year. Players can also look forward to the introduction of a mode with two killers instead of the usual one. Meanwhile, there are plenty of spinoffs on the way. We got a new trailer for the Supermassive-Games-developed narrative adventure The Casting of Frank Stone, and some information on […]
Back in 2022, Ubisoft announced that they were finally making a much-demanded trip to Feudal Japan with Assassin’s Creed Red, the latest open-world RPG take on the series from developer Ubisoft Quebec (Assassin's Creed Odyssey). It was always expected that Assassin’s Creed Red would eventually get a different title, Red was just a codename, and today, Ubisoft revealed it – Assassin’s Creed Shadows. The Assassin’s Creed Shadows title was announced on X, alongside an image of an hourglass situated in what appears to be a modern Japanese setting. Ubisoft is promising a “countdown” will play out on their social media […]
For some time now, we’ve known Ubisoft has two big Assassin’s Creed projects in the works – the more traditional Japanese ninja and samurai epic Codename Red, and the more experimental Codename Hexe. In development at Ubisoft Montreal, we know Assassin’s Creed Hexe will be a “different type of game” with a dark witchcraft-focused storyline and perhaps a more linear structure, but beyond that, we haven’t heard much about what’s cooking. Well, reliable Ubisoft insider Tom Henderson has emerged with some new details about Assassin’s Creed Hexe, and it seems it will indeed be quite a departure for the series. […]
It’s been quite a roller coaster for Battlefield 2042, which launched in an embarrassing state back in 2021, but managed to scratch and claw its way back to a solid place one update at a time. Well, it seems the Battlefield 2042 story is finally coming to an end, as EA and DICE have announced major support for the game will cease at the end the currently-in-progress Season 7. Maintenance updates and reruns of past events will still happen, but no more major seasonal content is coming. “While we’ve enjoyed and are proud of creating these seasons of additional content […]
Released back in 2019, Outward is an open-world survival RPG that’s managed to attract a fairly dedicated audience (Canadian developer Nine Dots Studio claims it’s sold over 1.3 million units). Back in 2022 we got a new “Definitive Edition” of the game for current-gen platforms, and now it seems a full-on sequel is in the works. Just announced today, Outward 2 will build on the foundation laid down by the first game, with livelier NPCs, improved character creation, updated combat, and more. You can check out a trailer for Outward 2, below. Looks like a nice little update over the […]
Since being announced back in 2021, there have been a lot of questions about what Assassin’s Creed Infinity would even be. We've known Infinity would be a hub of sorts that connects other Assassin’s Creed experiences and includes online elements, but beyond that, things have remained sketchy. Well, we now have some more details from insider Tom Henderson, who has a very good track record when it comes to all things Ubisoft. According to Henderson, he’s laid eyes on demo footage of Assassin’s Creed Infinity, and, surprise surprise, it sounds like it will be a heavily live-service-focused product. As we’ve […]
These days games suffering last-minute delays has become routine, but don’t worry – while the release date for Nightingale is changing, it’s not a delay. Today the Inflexion Games, the new Edmonton-based studio founded by former BioWare general manager Aaryn Flynn, announced that Nightingale will actually be coming out two days earlier than expected. Wisely, this change has been made to ensure the co-op survival game will be running smoothly by the weekend, which is likely when most people will be jumping in. “Having the game release at the start of the week not only allows our community to get […]
Over the weekend, a bombshell set of rumors dropped, that indicated Microsoft is essentially planning to go third party, with games like Starfield, Hi-Fi Rush, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle potentially going to PlayStation and other platforms. That’s big news, but most of the games mentioned so far have been projects that were acquired by Microsoft after they began development, not traditional core Xbox franchises like Halo or Gears of War. Well, it seems like even those may be about to make the jump. On the most recent episode of Game Mess Mornings, wanton leaker Jeff Grubb had […]
While they weren’t quite the blockbuster sellers their publishers hoped they’d be, the recent Deus Ex titles from developer Eidos Montreal have a pretty rabid fanbase who are always eager for any news of Adam Jensen’s return. Back in 2022 the reliable Jason Schreier let slip that Eidos Montreal was moving forward with a new Deus Ex following the acquisition of the IP and studio by Embracer Group. Of course, that was a very different time for Embracer. A time when it seemed pretty much anything could get greenlit at the company and they proudly boasted of the hundreds of […]
2023 saw the release of Alan Wake 2, the first full-on horror game from Remedy Entertainment, and if you have any success in the horror realm Dead by Daylight is going to hook you sooner or later. Today Montreal-based developer Behaviour Interactive announced Alan Wake himself is coming to Dead by Daylight later this month. You can check out a teaser trailer for Alan Wake’s DBD debut, below. Here’s a bit more detail on Alan Wake’s journey into The Fog, courtesy of Behaviour… “This isn’t fiction—it's real. Alan Wake, star of the critically acclaimed Alan Wake franchise, is coming into […]
Samsung has been reported on multiple occasions to introduce a design change with the Galaxy S25 Ultra launch, with the flagship said to feature rounded corners instead of sharp ones, resembling the company’s Galaxy Note 7. However, it is one thing to check out an artist’s impression of the smartphone and another to view an actual render, and we are happy to mention that an official image has come out, but there is a catch. The notable leakster responsible for showcasing the Galaxy S25 Ultra to his fans has blurred it out unless his financial target is met. Donation goal from […]
This week saw the release of Astro Bot, a delightful game that pays tribute to the rich history of PlayStation. It also, inadvertently, highlights the dearth of new games and franchises really worth celebrating from the PS5 era. Also, Star Wars Outlaws...
