Its been four years since Biomutant was first announced, popping up in a trailer that looked very very alright if we're being honest. Fast forward to the hell-year that is 2021, and the game actually looks…really good!

Bloober’s next game might be doing things a little differently, as the studio has begun recruiting for a number of positions on a "new big project," with an eye on nabbing a combat programmer who knows a thing or two about both melee and ranged combat.

When awards are handed out this year for various games, Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsushima definitely deserves to be in the consideration for many a prize. It has style, it has a fantastic world, and it has hands-down the best swordplay ever seen in a video game since Kyle Katarn began slicing up Stormtroopers in Jedi Outcast.

Miles Morales: Spider-Man, or as the game will be known outside of the US, Kilometer Morales: Spider-Man, won’t have a shortage of villains when it swings onto PS5 next week. The OG Spider-Man had his hands full with the Sinister Six, escaped prisoners, and the Taskmaster in 2018, but Miles will be facing a threat even worse than Galactus when he gets the munchies after passing through some groovy cosmic nebula: American capitalism.

Spider-Man Spider-Man, does whatever a Spider-Man can like unleashing bio-electric venom blasts and gadgets into mobs of hired good who are terrorising New York City wait that’s not how the song goes…is it? Miles Morales may be the newest webhead on the Manhattan block, but unlike Peter Parker he has a few different tricks up his costumed sleeves.

One of the very first games announced for the PlayStation 5, Godfall is a loot ‘n shoot experience apart from the fact that your gun is sword-shaped and you have to jab it into an enemy at point-blank range multiple times if you want to take them down. Developed by Counterplay, Godfall showed off a deeper dive into its gameplay last night and just how you’ll be slash-looting your way towards becoming a combat deity. Which apparently makes ample use of haptic feedback to sell you on the path to godhood.

Whereas previous Assassin’s Creed games encouraged you to be a scalpel that could strike with surgical precision and vanish before anyone was aware of your devious presence, Eivor is pure blunt force trauma and a siege weapon in a knife fight.

Sucker Punch’s samurai epic is leaning into the power fantasy of an age long forgotten, but with just enough authenticity added to the mix so that players can engage in a deadly duel where everything feels just…perfect.
