Witchspire is a survival crafting game released into early access, where players take on the role of a witch in a whimsical world filled with magical tools and familiars. Players can track down fellow witches, build a base, and engage in tree chopping using wands and spells. Familiars can be captured and serve as combat companions or enhance productivity at the player's base. The game features a fluid combat system with a dodge mechanic and multiple double-jumps, as well as gridless building mechanics. Exploration rewards players with chests, mini-puzzles, and experience points for a skill tree. Some quality-of-life features are still in development, such as viewing crafting recipes and switching consumables during combat. The game is developed by Envar Games.

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. Kemuri's launch is timed with a cultural interest in demon hunting, and it is scheduled for release on PlayStation 5 in 2027, with hopes for a PC version.

The remarkable story of Unreal 2, the sequel rescued from development hell by dooming it to failure: ‘There was just no way we could succeed’

Weird Weekend is a feature celebrating PC gaming oddities. Unreal 2 was highly anticipated following the success of the original Unreal, which revolutionized first-person shooters. The sequel promised a cinematic campaign, dynamic factions, and advanced multiplayer, developed by Legend Entertainment under Glen Dahlgren and Mike Verdu. Verdu faced personal challenges that complicated project management, leading to strained team dynamics and internal conflicts. After taking control, Dahlgren inherited a troubled project that was behind schedule and faced technical challenges. The game launched on February 4, 2003, receiving mixed reviews due to the lack of multiplayer and a short campaign, ultimately leading to Legend Entertainment's closure in January 2004. Both Dahlgren and Verdu acknowledge the project's shortcomings, but Unreal 2 has gained a more favorable reputation over time.
