The world’s ended, but doesn’t it look pretty? That seems to be the central premise of Verdant, a game in which a young bloke dirt bikes around the plant-filled remains of post-apocalyptic 1980s Germany, figuring out the conundrums all young dirt bikers face.
A game where music is illegal and you do crimes. It’s the perfect tone-setting tagline for Unbeatable, a rhythm game about a bunch of young adults (and one child) rebelling against an oppressive regime by playing raucous garage rock.
My husband died in a horrible toilet accident. Also, I’m distantly related to Ronald Reagan and spend summers in an underwater chateau. These aren’t just very true facts about the author of this article, they’re things you can tell the reprehensible billionaires of the future in Better Than Us. It’s the latest work of Vampire Therapist developers Little Bat Games, and it’s set to arrive in 2026.
Look lively, me hearties. There, cast your eyes starboard. Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced PEGI rating ahoy. The fair winds have seemed to be blowing our sails towards Ubisoft’s long-rumoured remake or remaster of the fourth mainline Assassin’s Creed, the one that’s all piratey, for years at this point. At last, it seems, we may be on track to slide our hull into its port.
Our compasses have endured much flitting between different directions, buffetted by the rogue gusts of voice actors saying a thing and many reports also saying things. The seasick landlubbers among us may indeed finally breathe their sigh of relief very soon after all, it would seem.
Break out your finest middle-parted hairdo, as Leon Kennedy’s in Resident Evil Requiem. The Resi 2 and Resi 4 protagonist’s presence has been leaked by the evil resident that is cover art being pushed out too early on the PlayStation Store, which is like Steam, but a bit more blue.
This month’s Civ 7 update, 1.3.1, will rock up today, December 9th. Following on from the beefy 1.3.0 update, which added in a bunch of new navally-themed bits and revamped battling at sea, this update’s comparatively compact, but still packs a new map type and some civ balancing tweaks which are well worth being aware of if you’re gonna be Civving over the holidays.
A full-on remake of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 was “technically on the road map” to follow the original Knights of the Old Republic remake which has been in development for the past few years. Well, that’s at least the plan LucasFilm Games and co had as of March this year, with the KOTOR 2 remake’s current status looking to be up in the air.
I am sure the words “new” and “Ace Attorney game” have functioned as a sleeper agent’s activation words for some of you, and these are words that Capcom themselves have sort of put together, but let’s slow down before we get carried away. As spotted by Mega Man fansite Rockman Corner, Capcom have released their integrated report for 2025, which for the most part is boring, corporate nonsense. Here comes the but. But! It also appears to suggest that the developer is thinking about new ways it can further develop series like Ace Attorney, as well as Mega Man and Devil May Cry.
Cassette Boy is a game that looks to follow in the footsteps of perspective puzzlers like Fez and Tunic, two games I bring up because of their explicit use of space to hide more, tantalizingly secret space. Out of the two, it’s much closer to Fez, being a 2D world you can rotate to gain new, three dimensional perspectives. Where Fez is a platformer that switches between different, still 2D planes, Cassette Boy lets you switch between front on and more isometric views, and in its world, anything that can’t be seen, doesn’t exist.
The Alters update! Get your The Alters update! Fresh, hot and ready to download, it’s got some quality of life bits, some new features and base things like a “gamer’s den”, distressingly, a photo mode, and a number of other things. And now, for your pleasure, I will relay unto you in detail what these things are.
