Weeks of teasing and releasing new characters for the upcoming Metroidvania has culminated in this rather sad yet touching addition to Silksong.

Kingdoms of Amalur, that swell game from the past with a very silly new strapline that I secretely adore, has a date! Which you just read in the headline above and dammit my clickbait is slipping. THQ Nordic has announced that it’ll be dropping like it’s hot on September 8. Here’s the fancy-pants announcement trailer to celebrate the rebirth of this underrated gem from a bygone era of…the early 2010s.

There’s a beautifully detailed game just waiting to be explored inside of this sequel to a forgotten cult classic, one that will have hardcore RTS fans in their element if they can overlook a clunky campaign flow and dive deep into its many layers of strategy. Fortune favours those who are bold and prepared in Brigandine: The Legend of Forsena.

Feast thine eyes on the trailer below, which stars you as a medieval ruler who has to build a stronghold and make good use of repressed peasants with which to run the land and soak up enemy spears.

Ever since Bungie divorced themselves of Activision Blizzard, the game has continued to improve and may fans believe that the partnership was toxic to the health of the game. Former Bungie board director and composer for the first game Martin O'Donnell, would agree with you.

Lo Wang is back to shoot loads of monstrous creatures, slice and dice his foes, and even grapple over some rather large pits.

Who needs a sword when you can charge into battle with the full power of AMERICA at your side?

The Ubisoft Forward livestream will no doubt have a bunch of games to show off and a weird Just Dance segment that’ll make you wonder if your drink has been spiked, but there’ll be one other bonus for anyone in digital attendance: A free game, in the form of Watch Dogs 2 on PC.
