It’s 2019, load shedding is once again a problem and too many terrible people are doing equally terrible things. I ain’t worried though, because at least I can sit back and bask in the glory that is another FromSoftware game, which happens to be out rather soon. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice looks like a blast and then some, taking FromSoftware’s trademark style of risk over reward and adding a few interesting wrinkles to the formula.

There’s still some life in the bones of Assassin’s Creed III, as Ubisoft wants to give the polarising sequel a second chance over on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.

He may have been out of action as a playable character in Mortal Kombat X, but you can’t keep a good speedster down as the quickest feet in EarthRealm is racing back into the ring for Mortal Kombat 11. Here’s what Kabal brings to the table.

There’s a reason that this RedLynx/Ubisoft series has been with us for so many years (20 if you include the original Java version). Basically it’s fun. We could’ve said flat-out fun, but there’s much more finesse to the experience than that, as players soon discover. Just like learning to ride a real bike, the basics of Trials never truly leave you. But as the series has evolved, the gameplay has become ever more nuanced, and now it’s time for more people to explore the many ways that flipping two-wheeled rides around like a fool can be so very fulfilling.

A powerful and loyal servant of Kronika, Geras wields the power to manipulate time. See him in bloody action, in his very own gameplay trailer for Mortal Kombat 11.
