Here’s what’s happening in PC games this week

Game Releases and Anticipated News

In an unexpected twist, The Maw has found itself in a peculiar state of flux, reminiscent of a midlife crisis. With the usual Mawkeeper, Edwin, temporarily absent, the task of navigating this chaotic creature falls to me. As I delve into the latest game releases for PC this week, I also have a tantalizing hint regarding some upcoming strategy game news from Paradox Interactive.

Lists are a delightful way to present information, so let’s embrace that format for this week’s round-up of new titles:

  • Drop Duchy: This intriguing title merges the classic tetramino mechanics of Tetris with strategic kingdom management. A promising blend that looks quite engaging!
  • Best Served Cold: Step into the shoes of a bartender turned detective in this murder mystery visual novel, set against the backdrop of a speakeasy in an alternate history European city, reminiscent of the iconic 1920s America.
  • Among Us 3D: Prepare for a game that tests friendships as players can betray their closest allies. After all, you can’t spell “friendship” without “end.”
  • Deck Of Haunts: Enter a maniacal mansion where players design spooky encounters for unsuspecting visitors in this unique deckbuilding experience.
  • Paradox Interactive is gearing up to unveil a significant new title, hinted at in a recent video. Dubbed “a new era for grand strategy,” fans speculate that the game, codenamed “Project Caesar,” may be a new installment in the beloved Europa Universalis series. Stay tuned for more updates.
  • The Midnight Walk: This first-person horror experience features unsettling doll heads and a distinctive animation style that evokes a sense of nostalgia.
  • Revenge Of The Savage Planet: The sequel to the sci-fi action-adventure game continues its vibrant extraterrestrial exploration across four planets, now with cooperative gameplay.
  • Yes, Your Grace 2: Snowfall: A follow-up to the pixel art kingdom management game, this title immerses players in a world inspired by Slavic folklore, where they must collect taxes, hire agents, and navigate tough decisions.
  • Sonic Rumble: As a Sonic franchise entry, it garners mixed feelings, but it remains a notable mention.
  • Anoxia Station: This strategy game delves into a petrochemical horror theme, drawing inspiration from Frostpunk while establishing its own eerie atmosphere. Edwin had expressed interest in its demo.

As always, we welcome your insights in the comments if there’s anything noteworthy this week that we might have overlooked. For now, The Maw appears to be somewhat calmed, though I can’t shake the feeling that it might just be a decoy. I’ll need to investigate further.
