Announced last year during Gamescom, Alone in the Dark won't make us wait for too long as the game will be available on October 25 2023 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. THQ Nordic released a spotlight video showing some gameplay footage and also announced that a demo can now be downloaded to try a very short prologue. The game runs on Unreal Engine 4 but it seems to do it well enough and it bodes well in terms of atmosphere. Like we said, the demo is very short, and it's clearly not that interesting in terms of gameplay mechanics, but it has made us very curious to play the final game. Two graphics modes are available on consoles and we're showing you both in the video we recorded this morning.
We can't say we were very hopeful when it came to The Lord of the Rings: Gollum but we thought it'd be at least a bit entertaining. It turns out it is absolutely not as it is dated in every possible way and we never felt engaged when playing. After a few hours (and a buggy checkpoint which forced us to restart a whole level), we simply gave up and so should you if you ever considered purchasing it.
Here are all the videos presented during the PlayStation Showcase, including Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Final Fantasy XVI and Helldivers 2.
A few weeks ago, we posted a preview video of After Us, the new game by Piccolo Studio, known for Arise: A Simple Story. Since the game is being released today, we are allowed to share a bit more gameplay footage from the PC version we were sent. Enjoy!
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun is also coming out today so if you've been looking for a retro-style first person shooter in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, it might be worth taking a close look at our gameplay video. The footage we have captured was recorded on PC but we decided to do it with a gamepad so console players can see what to expect in terms of playability. Note that we raised the sensitivity level of the camera to the max because it was too slow for us by default.
Planet of Lana is coming out today on Xbox consoles and PC but, unless you're interested in our French review on the dark side of the website, you'll have to be content with the following 4K video we captured in the best possible quality. We recorded the first twenty-three minutes of the adventure on PC and we're very happy to share this footage with you. Let us remind you that the game is available on Game Pass for no extra cost and that it's clearly worth your time despite its lack of originality. Let's say in a nutshell that this is actually Somerville done right, with a less depressing atmosphere. Also note that the soundtrack is really excellent and that Takeshi Furukawa's work should be highly praised.
Here's a bit more PC footage of TT Isle of Man – Ride on the Edge 3 as the latest update seems to have improved the odd op-up effects that could easily be noticed in the distant scenery, which was very distracting to say the least. We haven't had time to check the whole island or even other races, but in the following video, there's nothing weird going on anymore.
TT Isle of Man – Ride on the Edge 3 is coming out on May 11 but here is a gameplay video of the PC version a couple of days before launch. The game now allows you to explore the Isle of Man freely and find the different events that are scattered around. Beating them grants you experience points and upgrade points, which will help you improve. Despite what the FPS counter indicates, the game doesn't always seem to run smoothly and there are some pop-in issues in the far distance, though it's something you don't see that much when focusing on the road (which you should if you don't want to crash).
Before Daymare: 1998 became an official game, it was meant to be a free remake of Resident Evil 2, which explains why it looks so Resident Eviley. From the inventory system to the gameplay itself, the similarities with what Capcom achieved with their official remake is somewhat uncanny. Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle is actually a prequel to 1998 and it's planned for a 2023 release. We were given access to a new demo that we are now allowed to share so enjoy the video.
