Play as a private eye hired by an unusual client: the victim himself. The game has currently been wishlisted over 20K times on Steam. And the office will open soon. The Posthumous Investigation will launch for…
Originally announced for a Western release in December 2024, K-pop Idol Stories: Road to Debut was supposed to launch in 2025. Here we are, in 2026, but the good news is that it will be released this year. With the widespread love of K-pop Demon Hunters, it’s a great time…

I came into the Xbox Games Showcase expecting very little to be excited about, and I in fact got very little to be excited about. On one hand, it was streamed in 4K and that was nice. On the other hand, most titles get a big yawn from me. Still,…

Another showcase that starts with the word “future!” This time, though, it’s hosted by Spider-Man and Mary Jane Watson. Well, kind of – the hosts are voice actors Yuri Lowenthal and Laura Bailey. This showcase lasts about 50% longer than most (it’s an hour and a half) but does take…

The Tribeca Games Spotlight is one of the few (if any) showcases with no reveals or surprises. Rather, it announces the games in advance and then spends its time taking a good long look at each title. Last year’s was great, as it included Immortality. There are seven games in…

Shadows of the Damned is pure grindhouse. Originally released way back in 2011, the game follows the story of Garcia, a motorcycle-riding tough guy, as he descends into hell to rescue his lingerie-clad true love from an army of demons. Armed with Johnson (a talking skull-gun ally and, yes, the…

Devolver Digital is back and weirder than ever. This Direct’s story revolves around a (fake) mascot named Volvy, and it’s 2.0 evolution that makes up games as people suggests them. It’s honestly so bizarre, you just have to see it. I’ll be covering each of the four featured games, as…

For most, Summer Game Fest was the big event of the day. I watched it, but didn’t even bother covering it as a whole: there were like two things I was interested in. But following that is Day of the Devs, which is far more focused on artistic indie games…
