Starmancer TBC
It’s Dwarf fortress, but in space. We don’t know exactly how
closely it resembles the resource-management classic, but it
hands the player the responsibility of running a space colony under
threat from natural hazards and marauding bandits. It looks great,
too—intricately detailed pixel art bringing your little colony to life.

Minecraft Dungeons spring 2020
honestly, this looks good as hell. a four-player co-op dungeon
crawler in the vein of Diablo, but with the cutesy, cubic art style
of Minecraft? We didn’t see this one coming, but after watching it
in action, we’re pleasantly surprised; it’s bringing a genuinely fun
and unique twist to the dungeon-crawling genre.- Developer Mojang • Publisher Microsoft studios
Blair Witch august 2019
Truly good horror games can be few and
far between, so we’re hoping that this one
will scare the pants off us. It looks like
it’s checking all the boxes, too. spooky
teleporting monsters? Yup. a haunted
forest? Check. Protagonist with a trusty
old-school video camera? You got it.- Developer Bloober Team

Elden Ring TBC 2020
fromsoftware and George r.r. Martin?
It’s safe to assume that we’ll be doing
some (read: a lot of) dying in this game.
Creator hidetaka Miyazaki has confirmed
that it’ll be from’s biggest game ever. No
mention of whether everyone’s favorite
Mother of Dragons will cameo, though.

Dying Light 2 TBC 2020
The first Dying light was a surprise
success, a fast-paced combo of parkour
and melee combat in a zombie-infested
city. This looks darker, with protagonist
aiden in the process of succumbing to
the undead virus, but it still has the same
amount of zombie defenestration.- Developer Techland
