Humankind, the new 4X game coming from Amplitude Studios, already looks promising. Amplitude is wildly successful when it comes to creating complex systems through which players can micromanage an eventual empire.

As a black gamer, there are very few examples of main protagonists in gaming that make me feel seen. When it comes to this generation alone, there are only two notable characters that I can think of: Lincoln from Mafia III and Marcus from Watch Dogs 2.

Ever since Cuphead released in 2017, the lovingly-crafted animated indie game has provided a wealth of incredible fan creations.
