Just like Chinese new year, a new year for Hearthstone doesn’t kick off in ye olde January. Instead, Blizzard’s free to play card game usually starts anew in March. As the Year of the Raven winds down to a close, it’s time to look ahead at the future and what’s to come in Hearthstone, beginning with the next big seasonal shift within that game as a fresh new Standard Format kicks off. So what’s in store for the Year of the Dragon? Plenty!

I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news for you, in case you were hoping a very particular combination of strategy, the undead and intense resource management: Superb zombie apocalypse simulator They Are Billions is going to need a little bit more time in the oven to finish cooking up its single-player campaign.

We want to be bold, we want to be brave and we want to throw our own hats into the ring with a few ideas of our own, that will see the gaming industry undergo some radical change this year.

What’s worse than the zombie apocalypse? Easy: The zombie apocalypse, if it were designed by your friends. Real-time walking dead strategy game They Are Billions has been playing around with a level editor for the last two weeks, and with a little fine-tuning, that added layer of tactical zombie-slaying is alive and ready to slowly walk over to your side of the screen for a hot meal of leg of Larry.

Zombie steampunk strategy game They Are Billions was never just intended to be a thumb-blistering challenge mode of a game. What Numantian Games released this year, was supposed to be a teaser of things to come, a platform that would help bankroll the true aim of the game: A full campaign mode that would flesh out the decaying world of They Are Billions. So where is it? Like all good things in life, getting to the sweet undead nugget of narrative strategy has taken some considerable time to develop.

While Anthem will have post-launch content, you'll only pay extra for digital goodies that are purely cosmetic in nature.

Post apocalypse zombie strategy game may rely on strength in numbers to overwhelm players, but zombie units wandering on their lonesome? Pretty easy to pick off when you have a squad of competent soldiers on the prowl. That’s all set to change soon in They Are Billions introduces a new unit to the enemy mix. Say hello, to the Infected Giant.
