The upcoming 2.5D side-scrolling ARPG Mandragora put out a new gameplay trailer, which albeit short, looks promising. I backed this on Kickstarter, so it feels like a long time coming and hopefully it’s worth the wait!

Continuing their recent press push, we got another look at Black Myth: Wukong, in a new official trailer. Game looks gorgeous, super creative and really fun - can’t wait.

The new one from Hoyoverse (Genshin, Honkai), Zenless Zone Zero, has a new gameplay trailer and another little environmental showcase thing. In them we see a new urban environment, characters, minigames and combat. Dig the styling on this one, and I’m shamefully a sucker for this gacha stuff.

A new online looter shooter from Nexon, The First Descendent, has been revealed. As a fan of the genre, I’ll have my eye on this one. Open beta September 22.

The upcoming Lords of the Fallen reboot has a new, extended story trailer. Looks cool - always keen for a new soulslike! Hoping some of the SFX was tweaked from the last gameplay we saw.

It’s that time of year again! The official trailer for Assassin’s Creed Mirage is here, with the game eyeing an October 5 release date. Here’s hoping for something a bit different this time.

A new trailer for the Phantom Liberty expansion to Cyberpunk dropped, and in spite of the base game’s flaws (and not to encourage the same hypetrain mistakes again), this looks pretty fun! Credit to CD Projekt for reworking fundamental stuff, not ‘just’ expanding the world: all players will get the Cyberpunk 2.0 stuff, whether they purchase the expansion or not.

Ol’ mate Todd Howard took to the stage to talk, of course, about Starfield, which releases in two weeks. There was also a live action trailer, which personally I always think are kinda odd.

Pearl Abyss’ upcoming open-world action/adventure got a gameplay trailer, showing horseback exploration, combat, cat-cuddling and more.

A new entry to the cute but haunting indie puzzle/platform series was revealed - check out the trailer here. Keen.
