It looks like Kingdoms of Amalur is making a comeback! Having purchased the rights to the game in 2018, THQ Nordic looks set to release a remastered version of the game. Or a Re-Reckoning version, according to a marketing department that is probably high-fiving themselves right now for coming up with that term.

In this long-awaited prequel to the beloved classic Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive, John Cooper will join forces with the runaway bride Kate, the shady hitman Doc McCoy, the giant trapper Hector, and Isabelle, a mysterious lady from New Orleans.

A lengthy fourteen years later, and Desperados 3 is ready to fill its hand with iron once again, shooting not just bullets but cerebral rounds of pure tactical quick decision-making.

E3 organizer the ESA has confirmed that while this year’s show, which was already looking barebones due to Sony, Geoff Keighley and even their own retail and production partner iam8bit skipping out on the gaming shindig, they’ll be back next year. Bigger! Better! With blackjack! And hookers! E3 2021 will take place from June 15 to 17.

Experiment 101, the team behind the action-adventure RPG has confirmed the game has not be cancelled but haven’t confirmed a solid release date.

Irritations and annoyances aside, Darksiders Genesis is still fantastic stuff. It’s a reinvigorating return to form for the franchise, taking the best of the series and remixing it with a few new ideas that makes for a great diversion over a dozen hours of escapism.

The Embracer Group has acquired Saber Interactive, the port and support developer known for their incredible work on the Switch versions of The Witcher 3. They’ve also had a hit in their own original work in the fun World War Z.

As a stopgap between Darksiders 3 and the eventual Darksiders 4, Genesis scratches an itch in an unconventional manner that deserves some appreciation for trying something new along the way. Even if I do need to strap a pair of binoculars to my face to see what I’m doing.
