Most of Sony’s E3 offerings won’t really be our bag, but it’s still worth watching and should include a few treats for PC gamers, like some Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 stuff and some more enigmatic Death Stranding footage. Watch Sony’s E3 press conference above on Monday, June 11 at 6 pm Pacific / 9 pm Eastern / 2 am BST (Tues) / 11 am AEST (Tues), or here on Twitch.

IO Interactive announced a new Hitman last week, and today the studio’s game director Jacob Mikkelsen joined us at the PC Gaming Show to demonstrate Agent 47 doing his thing in the game’s Miami level. It’s one of six detailed and sprawling new stages coming in Hitman 2, and the possibilities are already exciting. Check out the brand new trailer, which spotlights some of what to expect. You’ll throw more objects than ever before. You’ll wander through outrageously lavish environments.

Gun Media has announced that because of a legal battle over the rights to the franchise, development of new content for Friday the 13th: The Game has been put on hold. The trouble is rooted in an ongoing dispute between Victor Miller, the writer of the original film, and Sean Cunningham, the producer and director of the film and current rights holder. And while that dispute works itself out, Gun Media said in a statement sent to 1428 Elm that it has no choice but to hit the pause button on futur

Publisher TinyBuild has just announced a brand new game at the PC Gaming Show at E3: Rapture Rejects, a 2D isometric battle royale game based on the webcomic Cyanide & Happiness. In the game’s story, god went on something of a binge drinking session, and accidentally beamed the worst of humanity up to heaven. How unfortunate. It’s a topdown game that recalls a little of Don’t Starve in its cartoon-y style, and it’s being developed by Galvanic Games, in collaboration with Explosm. The trailer abo

Ubisoft BlueByte brought the latest entry in its long-running city builder/strategy series to the PC Gaming Show today. and what that means for the latest entry. Anno Union is a scheme that invites players to become part of the development team, helping them redo 1800’s late game based on their feedback. They welcome strategy players to join in here. Anno 1800 was announced at Gamescom 2017, and will be the first entry set in the past rather than the future since 2009’s Anno 1404.

Ooblets, the super-cute farming and creature-collecting game from developer Glumberland and publisher Double Fine, showed us a new and exclusive trailer on the PC Gaming Show at E3. On the show, we finally learned how the Ooblets you collect do battle with each other—and it’s with dance moves. The exclusive trailer, which you can see above, shows two fierce Ooblets facing off. It’s a dance-off, with sweet dance moves doing ‘damage’ or at least knocking the other dancer back a few steps. The trai

At the PC Gaming Show, Two Point Studios showed off over three minutes of brand new footage of Two Point Hospital, including new illnesses and rooms that players will discover in the game. These include ‘turtle head’, where a patient’s head gets stuck inside their body and has to be pulled out. Then we see monobrow, which you might think is a simple matter of having a shave in your eyebrow area. They could be hiding anyway, so get ready to lift a lot of your hospital furniture to find the bastar

That’s the guiding principle behind Noita’s fascinating, horrifying design: Every pixel is simulated. To ensure you fuck up regularly and in horrible, hilarious ways, the wand system makes use of the same elemental properties of the world. I’ve played Noita for an hour or so, and barely made it through the first level in that time. I don’t want to prove myself to random systems again and again, but Noita skirts by on hilarity and surprise. Noita is dubbed a roguelite, too, so I’m guessing Nolla

At the PC Gaming Show today, Klei showed off a gameplay trailer for Don’t Starve’s next expansion, Hamlet. “In Don’t Starve: Hamlet, Wilson discovers a lost town of aristocratic Pigmen nestled within a foreboding tropical jungle,” says Klei. “Reacquaint to city life with pig shops, houses, new items, biomes and more, or delve into the ancient pig ruins and try your hand at treasure hunting in this new single player expansion.” Find out more on the Steam DLC page. Don’t Starve: Hamlet will be out

Payday studio Overkill announced its co-operative FPS slant on The Walking Dead in 2014. It’s spent the past several weeks teasing its apocalyptic Georgetown setting, and the miserable backstories of its four survivors. Cue exploding heads by way of sniper rifles, crossbow bolts, combat knives, machetes, screwdrivers and, gulp, the underside of someone’s boot. In four-player co-op, Overkill’s The Walking Dead is mission-based wherein “teamwork is paramount”. Overkill’s The Walking Dead is due on

Square Enix is one of the sponsors of the PC Gaming Show 2018. Avalanche just presented Just Cause 4 at the PC Gaming Show, showing off the game’s new open world engine, Apex. Franchesco Antolini, game director, and Adam Davidson, executive producer, were on-hand to introduce what Apex can do, and to discuss the game’s impressive new weather effects. The trailer shows what we can expect from the game’s four biomes. Expect a slew of weather effects in the finished game, including blizzards, sands

Genesis Alpha One, a weird mix of roguelike, shooter, base-builder, and survival game, finally got a release date at the PC Gaming Show. Genesis Alpha One releases September 4, 2018. As the Captain of a Genesis starship, you journey into uncharted space on the ultimate mission. Build and manage a space vessel, farm resources, deal with terrifying alien infestations, clone creatures and explore a vast, randomly generated universe.” I’m a systems person, and building a base, cloning my crew, and s

Repeat PC Gaming Show visitor Star Citizen is back again with a new trailer, and a little tease that Alpha 3.2 is “coming soon.” No one will accuse Star Citizen of not being a looker—that’s some good space. Check out the trailer above, and watch the 2018 PC Gaming Show here.

Explore a world of plains and tombs rendered in Moebius tones. Sable’s devs describe it as “a coming-of-age tale of discovery through exploration across a strikingly rendered open world desert, and we just showcased the game at the PC Gaming Show. “Go on a deeply personal journey across an alien planet as the young Sable, exploring ancient monuments, ruined architecture, and ships fallen from the cosmos, all while learning the history of its inhabitants and discovering her place in the world.” T

You play a taxi driver in Paris in this artfully moody adventure game, picking up fares as you travel around the city, uncovering details about a spate of connected murders that have been committed across the capital. Because the victims were all clients of your taxi company. So listen to your passengers, collect clues, and stop the killer.” The latest teaser trailer was revealed on stage at the PC Gaming Show. Find out more on the Night Call site.

Oculus is one of the sponsors of the PC Gaming Show. Sunset Overdrive and Ratchet and Clank developers Insomniac are teaming up with Oculus Studios to make an open world VR game called Stormland. The team promises that you’ll get to “journey through an ever-changing cloudscape to augment yourself and save your friends,” and you can see some of that in the new trailer aired at the PC Gaming Show 2018. The trailer shows the player flying over clouds, scaling a cliff face and exchanging fire with s

It’s a 2D action platformer rendered almost entirely in black and red (and it’s out today on Steam and Itch). It could expand the level, it could take you to a new level, hell, it could beat the game. Well, here’s the thing: every time you die, your field of view gets smaller—a black circle encroaches on your screen. What I meant was that I haven’t killed them all in the same run, because each time you kill a boss, enemies gain special abilities. No matter what boss you’re fighting, the screen w

Things aren’t going well, but Morning Star, an upcoming farming game in the vein of Stardew Valley or Harvest Moon, imagines a future after the shitty one. Morning Star asks if we can correct a cyberpunk dystopia with the same tools that bring us to it. It may look dark, but Morning Star is an optimistic game. Morning Star, like Harvest Moon or Stardew Valley, will feature its own community. Maybe Morning Star can do a bit more convincing.

At first glance, Untitled Publisher’s Bravery Network Online (revealed just now at the PC Gaming Show) reminds me of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World mixed with Pokemon. The trailer above boasts turn-based fighting, you see, hand-drawn comic book-style characters, zany combat combos, a catchy soundtrack and—perhaps you’re best taking a look yourself. Between its Flicker Gloves and Round Ends, Claymores and Tag Outs, Pecks (my favourite) and Shrieks, I’m not really sure what’s going on there, but it s

We got a glimpse of Maneater at the 2018 PC Gaming Show, but we wanted to know more about life as a shark. Can our shark grow legs and terrorize the shore? Do you consider Maneater an open-world game? Yes, Maneater will be an open-world game by design. The player begins life as a young shark and must grow to adulthood by exploring the environment and feeding.
