The Playdate’s weirdest game, in which you flip through bizarro channels of an alternate reality cable network, is getting an enhanced version on PC and the Switch which adds... color. And presumably some more weirdo stuff. It’s launching later this year.
The big final reveal for the Xbox portion of the event was the next Call of Duty, which will be Black Ops 7. According to Activision, the new game will be set in 2035 and follows a story “where David Mason leads the Black Ops team against a manipulative enemy who weaponizes fear above all else.”
With Palworld already a hit on Xbox, it’s no surprise other similar games are on the way. Next up is Aniimo, described as a “creature-catching open-world ARPG.” There don’t appear to be any guns, but the graphics sure look slick. It launches next year on the Xbox, PC, and mobile.
Don’t Nod, the studio behind the hella good adventure series, is going in a very different direction with a sci-fi survival game called Aphelion. It’s launching in 2026.
Obsidian’s Honey I Shrunk the Kids-esque survival game is getting a sequel, and yes there are still lots of bug. It’s launching on July 29th.
The time-bending steampunk shooter Clockwork Revolution looks like it will offer plenty of tools for chaotic combat, though it’s not clear yet when the game will be launching.
The latest trailer for Ninja Gaiden 4 gives a great idea of the brutal action fans can expect. But the most surprising bit might be how disturbing some of these monster designs are. Even better, we got a release date: it’s dropping on October 21st.
One of the first reveals was for a sequel to the comedic shooter High on Life, which introduces a skater vibe to the experience. It’s launching “this winter” and doesn’t look like it will skimp on the jokes.
