New announcements
These games were announced in the past week:
«Sol Shogunate»
What's cooler than a samurai in feudal Japan? A samurai in space. At least that's what the developers at Studio Chaos Manufacturing thought. As a samurai, you travel the solar system and fight against the troops of a powerful enemy. The sci-fi action role-playing game focuses on battles with acrobatic manoeuvres.
Date: unknown
Released for: PS5, PC
«Zlin City: Arch Moderna»
«Zlín City: Arch Moderna» is a historically inspired city-building game that combines real miniatures, photogrammetry and Unreal Engine 5. You build small diorama cities set in the period from 1930 to 1940. You complete quests and fulfil requests from citizens. Looks cool.
Date: unknown
Released for: PC
«Serpent's Gaze»
«Serpent's Gaze» is a third-person co-op action title for one to four players. You fight against various enemies while uncovering the secrets of an ancient desert.
Date: 2026
Released for: PC
«Scrap Daddies»
The developer Other Ocean Interactive describes «Scrap Daddies» as a « slapstick co-op looter in extraction style for 1-6 players.» The game world has sunk beneath the waves and the survivors live on scattered platforms. As a scrap collector, you dive into deep-sea bases to recover energy cells and collect scrap to upgrade your equipment.
Date: unknown
Released for: PC
«Tetra Rise»
«Tetra Rise» is somehow «Tetris», but then again it's not. At its core, the game is an action platformer with roguelite elements. You fight hordes of enemies and upgrade your equipment to reach the surface. To do this, you simultaneously layer blocks on top of each other. Looks exciting, but also confusing.
Date: unknown
Released for: PC
«Dark Craft»
Dark Craft is an open-world RPG that promises to be the «first Souls-style MMORPG». The game, which is said to be free to play, also mixes edgy «Minecraft» visuals into the mix.
Date: unknown
Released for: PC
«Plague Doctor: Life in Pestilence»
Put on your beak mask and take a deep breath, but better through a herbal filter. In this simulator, you slip into the role of a medieval plague doctor. Your tasks are not for the faint-hearted: You examine villagers, make medicine, perform autopsies and fight against the spread of the Black Death.
Date: unknown
Released for: PC
«The God Slayer»
«The God Slayer» mixes steampunk with oriental aesthetics. In the open-world action RPG, you take on the role of an Elemancer whose family was brutally murdered by the Celestials. Looks pretty cool and reminds me of «Avatar - Lord of the Elements».
Date: unknown
Released for: Playstation 5, Xbox Series, PC

«Replaced»
The action platformer in 2.5D style is set in an alternative America of the 1980s. A nuclear catastrophe has devastated the country. You play R.E.A.C.H., an AI trapped in the body of a human. The retro-futuristic world looks really cool and I'm absolutely hyped for the title.

«MIO: Memories in Orbit»
In MIO: Memories in Orbit, you take on the role of MIO, a nimble robot with special abilities. You wake up and have no idea where you are or what you are doing here. From then on, you fight enemies and explore new areas in the familiar Metroidvania style. The game now has a release date.
