Waking up after a long flight and landing back in the UK after attending GDC, I find myself immersed in the brutal game of “Beating Jetlag”. My brain feels fried, and my eyes are struggling to adjust to the harsh light around me. The relentless sun beams down on me, while my body feels devoid of any warmth. Despite my fatigue and melodramatic complaints, the world around me moves on.
In the realm of PC gaming, there is a plethora of new releases to look forward to this week. From the spaceship defense FPS Sentry to the free-to-play survival MMO Palia, there is a game for every kind of player. The dark fantasy metroidvania Ender Magnolia: Bloom In The Mist and the historical 4x Millennia offer different immersive experiences. Additionally, island city-builder Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles, party-based RPG remaster Geneforge 2: Infestation, Grandia-style wizards RPG Terra Memoria, Gone Home-esque mystery Open Roads, and hand-drawn alt-history fest Felvidek are all set to excite gamers around the world.
The gaming industry is abuzz with exciting updates and revelations. From Remedy’s latest investor report hinting at the upcoming co-op survival game Condor set in the Control universe to the stealthy brawler Raw Metal’s post-launch roadmap featuring boss rebalancing and alternate progression modes, there is a lot to look forward to. Recent reports suggest that GTA 6 might be delayed until 2026 on consoles, causing speculation and anticipation among fans. Bend Studios, known for post-apocalyptic motorbiking sim Days Gone, are hiring for their next project, promising an exciting experience for gamers. In the realm of RPGs, Baldur’s Gate 3 was revealed to have multiple dungeon masters or narrators in the pipeline, adding depth to the gameplay experience.
One of the most talked-about developments in the gaming world is Dragon’s Dogma 2’s Dragonsplague mechanic. This unique feature allows players to rent out AI-controlled Pawns created by other players. However, these Pawns can contract a dangerous disease called Dragonsplague, which spreads between them and can lead to murderous rampages if left untreated. The online reaction to this feature has been mixed, with some praising its innovation and others expressing concern over its potential consequences for gameplay.
