One of my TGA show highlights was Big Walk by House House, from Melbourne. Absolutely love the sounds and flora of Australia here. “Hang out and get lost with close friends in a big world.” Looks super, super fun. Coming 2025.

Exodus is a narrative driven sci-fi shooter from Austin based studio Archetype Entertainment, starring Matthew McConaughey. “Become the Traveller”. Not heaps to go off, but looks neat.

A new World of Goo was not on my bingo card, but the first one was a classic, so let’s go! 15 years after its predecessor, World of Goo 2 launches 2024.

After spending so long with Dead Cells, Motion Twin have revealed their next project, Windblown. “Brave the Vortex and dash your way to greatness in this lightning-fast action roguelike from the creators of Dead Cells. Alone or in coop, become the ultimate killing machine as you enhance your skills and master your weapons in search of that perfect run”

A new one from Finji, Usual June, in which you “hang out, fight monsters, and discover your town’s darkest secrets in … a third person action game about summer break and the end of the world.” Coming 2025.

Woo! After days of teasing, the new one from Daniel Mullins has been revealed, and surprise! It’s Pony Island 2! Was not expecting that, but… awesome!

IGN’s Rebekah Valentine shares numerous disheartening and startling revelations in a comprehensive exposé on Bungie’s current internal situation. The impending prospect of Sony completely absorbing Bungie in the coming months is becoming overshadowed by a more pressing concern—what strategic steps will present leadership take to motivate and drive company forward today.

Releasing earlier than scheduled to combat an unfortunate leak, the GTA VI trailer is here. Featuring our protagonist Lucia, her partner in crime, the usual fast cars and parties, on a backdrop of Vice City and Floridian madness. Set to release in 2025 (though no mention of PC), it’s looking fantastic - love the apparent Bonnie & Clyde vibe. Wonder how many billions this will make.

Extremely addictive deckbuilding bullet-heaven roguelite tower defense. Cool styling and very much a one-more-run type of experience - especially with friend leaderboards! Interesting cards, abilities and characters, but I feel like tower upgrades could afford to be more than just stat bumps. That said, really good game.

There’s a new trailer showing gameplay from the upcoming SPINE, “a single-player story rich action game focused on intense close-quarters gun fights with aesthetics of Gun fu movies”. Really like the styling - makes me think cyberpunk Sifu with guns. Will have to see how this all translates into actual gameplay.
