Now that we’re living in a KPop Demon Hunters and Jujutsu Kaisen world, yokai-smiting action game Kemuri should be a slam dunk

Kemuri is a co-op action game focused on hunting mythical demons in urban environments, developed by Ikumi Nakamura's studio. The first gameplay trailer was revealed during Sony's State of Play event, showcasing vibrant animation and dynamic action. The game aims to provide a multiplayer experience similar to the Dark Souls series, featuring unique hunters and yokai. Questions remain about its structural design, including whether it will be open-world or mission-based and if it will prioritize campaign or loot systems.

Fresh from bringing his canceled Minecraft competitor back from the dead, Hytale boss shares new gameplay footage as “a taste of things to come” – but there’s still “a lot of work” to be done

Riot Games has canceled the unreleased sandbox game Hytale and closed developer Hypixel Studios, following its acquisition of the studio in 2020. However, Riot has since sold Hytale back to Hypixel Studios, which has pledged a decade of support for the game and an upcoming early access date. Studio founder Simon Collins-Laflamme shared 16 minutes of raw gameplay footage, describing it as incomplete and buggy but still promising. He outlined three key commitments: save the game, release more videos and screenshots, and launch Hytale. Despite acknowledging various issues in the gameplay footage, Collins-Laflamme remains optimistic about the game's development. The fanbase has responded positively to the gameplay reveal.

New vampire RPG mixing The Witcher and Bloodlines 2 is already delivering on player feedback, and it’s not even out yet

Rebel Wolves has released a new gameplay demo for The Blood of Dawnwalker, incorporating significant changes based on player feedback. The studio, made up of former CD Projekt Red developers, has generated excitement for this RPG. The demo features the quest 'A Monk and a Saint,' where the protagonist, Coen, seeks a legendary sword. Players experience different scenarios depending on whether Coen is in human form during the day or as a vampire at night. In the daytime, Coen investigates an asylum and confronts a Murohn, using the Compel Soul hex to communicate with the deceased. The gameplay allows for real-time decision-making without pausing the choice menu, similar to The Witcher 3. A second camera option has been added based on player feedback for a wider view during combat and exploration. The Blood of Dawnwalker is set to release in 2026.

Battlefield 6’s first batch of soldier skins is more tactical than tacti-cool, but if you thought that one green skin was a step too far, I don’t know what to tell you

The debate over the aesthetics of cosmetics in modern FPS games, particularly in Battlefield 6, focuses on whether to adopt a tactical or 'tacti-cool' approach. As Season 1 progresses, early impressions suggest that the new cosmetics largely maintain a realistic military style, with designs like the Unflinching and Regiment skins aligning closely with the original launch aesthetics. However, some skins, such as the Fearmonger and Samhain, introduce more flamboyant elements reminiscent of styles seen in Call of Duty. Despite these extravagant designs, most new skins integrate well with Battlefield 6's visual identity. EA's goal for Battlefield 6 as a successful live service may lead to a demand for broader appeal in future skins, with Season 2 expected to introduce new designs in the new year.
