We are only a day away from The Game Awards, which is usually stuffed with new game announcements. The show has followed a similar formula the past couple of years, and this year doesn’t seem to be too different. That being said, Geoff Keighley and co. are adding to their award season experience by also

Were you looking to get a good weeping next week? Specifically on November 26, 2019? Well, it is time to mark your cry calendar because the Gris PS4 version is coming to the PlayStation Store next Tuesday. While Nomada Studio’s narrative-driven platformer is beautiful on its current platforms, the PS4 version may be one of
Devolver Digital’s E3 Direct revealed a few new indie games coming this year and the next. The first game they showed off was Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout. The game has you competing with 99 other players in a chaotic race through an obstacle course that looks straight out of your favorite Japanese game show. Check
Everyone’s favorite ninja will be surfing his way to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC on July 11, 2019, in the previously announced DLC, The Messenger: Picnic Panic. During the Devolver Big Fancy Press Conference 2019 (which was absolutely wild, by the way), a trailer boasting some new gameplay from the expansion was revealed. You’ll
My Friend Pedro looks like a 2D Max Payne with even crazier gunplay. Developer DeadToast Entertainment has gone completely over-the-top and I dig it so much. There aren’t many other games I’m looking forward to as much as this one and, fortunately, I don’t have to wait long. In a bullet-riddled short trailer, publisher Devolver
Devolver Digital announced their 10th Anniversary sale for Nintendo Switch, which will take place from May 30th to June 6th. The sale, coming just in time for E3, will feature up to 50% off some of the most popular of the publisher’s titles: The Devolver Digital 10th Anniversary Sale on #NintendoSwitch is rolling through the
The publishers at Devolver Digital are having themselves quite the May. They just helped get Observation out the door and today the team announced that Gato Roboto will be hitting at the end of the month. This new game from developer Doinksoft is calling itself a “meowtroidvania” and also has elements of a bullet hell
The developers at No Code made a name for themselves in 2017 with the release of their “experimental text adventure” Stories Untold. It was a collection of four short stories that took players through a fascinating journey that jumped genres nearly as quickly as it delivered thrills. Observation instead focuses on a single story, delivering
The E3 2019 press conference slate has now been fully revealed today as indie games publisher Devolver Digital has now announced when its own event will take place. Devolver stated this morning on Twitter that its own annualized press conference will take place next month on Sunday, June 9 at 7:00pm PST/10:00pm EST. No further
There was much to love about Katana Zero, from the combat to the overall aesthetic, but the original musical soundtrack definitely played a large part in all of it. Those addicted to the electronic instrumentals of the game are now in luck, with the Katana Zero soundtrack available on multiple platforms. Anyone can purchase the
Devolver Digital’s Katana Zero has only been available for one week, but it’s already doing quite well for itself. As announced by the game’s developer Askiisoft this afternoon, Katana Zero has already sold over 100,000 copies across both PC and Switch in a single week. “Thank you so much for playing and sharing Katana Zero – we’re
Katana Zero has finally arrived today as it launches on Nintendo Switch, PC, and Mac but unfortunately, not everyone is enjoying this 80’s neo-noir sidescroller by Askiisoft. Publishers Devolver Digital has taken to Twitter to release a statement stating that players in Australia and New Zealand will have to wait a little longer as they sort
Katana ZERO was not the game I was expecting. Sure, it’s a 2D action platformer. I knew I was going to get some great combat elements just based off of what I had seen online and from the little I played during my time at PAX South earlier this year. However, what hooked me wasn’t just
With a visual style that fuses the retro aesthetics of the ’80s and challenging gameplay that harkens back to Hotline Miami, Katana Zero is already looking like one of the must-own Nintendo Switch titles that will arrive this year, at least if the pre-orders from Devolver Digital seem to be anything to go by. Publisher Devolver Digital
The Messenger is one of my favorite games from last year as it is so cleverly designed both from a gameplay and story standpoint. What seemed like a cool gimmick with the instantaneous 8-bit to 16-bit transitions becomes a story point that adds both Metroidvania and light puzzle-solving elements to what was seemingly just a Ninja Gaiden
The Enter the Gungeon unique brand of bullet hell shooting might be finishing up its post-launch updates, but it is going out with a bang. Developer Dodge Roll and publisher Devolver Digital released their final content update, “Farewell to Arms” and it is an explosive way to end an indie darling’s life. The update packs quite the
My friend Logan knows me incredibly well. We were friends growing up but I moved. He later stumbled across me on Twitter and we have been friends ever since. We’ve podcasted, partied, and traveled together since that fateful Twitter interaction. Logan knows my taste in games so well, that he often tells me “You’ll like
In the time I spent playing Heave Ho on the show floor at PAX East, I probably failed through the first couple puzzles at least a good two dozen or so times. Normally in that type of scenario when you’re trying to complete a particularly-challenging puzzle it can lead to frustration, but in the case of Heave
When it comes to recent trends in games as of late, one of the absolute best trends has been the resurgence of ninja-themed games. Last year, The Messenger blended the old-school gameplay of Ninja Gaiden with challenging Metroidvania gameplay, while more recently titles like Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice took fast-paced combat to new (and more difficult) levels. That
Publisher Devolver Digital and developer Le Cartel Studio announced a new physics-based, local multiplayer platformer called Heave Ho. You might remember Le Cartel Studio from their previous work on Mother Russia Bleeds. In Heave Ho, the studio looks to be tackling brand new territory. The reveal trailer shows off a game that looks like a
Google isn’t the only big company with announcements during GDC 2019—Nintendo unveiled some indies (ahem, Nindies) coming soon to the Switch. With reports and rumors of a closer relationship between Nintendo and Microsoft, this Nindies Showcase started off with the surprising confirmation of Cuphead for the Switch. Previously exclusive to Xbox One and PC, Switch
Originally released back in December on Nintendo Switch and PC, the artful, narrative-driven experience Gris drew instant critical acclaim for its incredible visuals and emotional storytelling, and for those that couldn’t get enough of the game before, a new update has arrived to give players a deeper look into its development. In celebration of the game
Sabotage Studio and Devolver Digital’s indie gem The Messenger released on Switch and PC last year, but it seems like the game could be soon coming to another rather large platform. In a new listing on the official PEGI (Pan European Game Information) website, The Messenger has been listed for a release on PS4. The game is
The E3 2019 press conference list continues to grow ever-smaller. With Sony having previously announced that it would be skipping out on E3 2019 altogether combined with EA’s reveal earlier today that its annual EA Play event wouldn’t contain an opening press event either, the list of participating publishers having old-school presentations at the show has
Hotline Miami but with apes. That was not a game I would’ve ever expected to be playing in 2019, but here we are with Ape Out. The game recently gained a traction in December after being featured in the Kinda Funny Games Showcase, with this all building up to the game’s intended February 7 release.
