The Humble Monthly bundle is a great deal at $12/month considering it comes with at least $100 worth of PC games, 10% off the Humble Store, and access to the Humble Trove. Plus, subscribers get to keep the game even after canceling membership unlike those who get free games through Xbox Live Gold or PlayStation Plus. The bundle unlocks on the first Friday of every month, and for August includes the games Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Surviving Mars. These will replace July’s games, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice and Moonlighter, in the coming weeks and are both great games in their own rights. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is an authentic and realistic portrayal of the 15th century in Medieval Bohemia that, despite a few minor controversies, launched to a solid level of success, quickly selling 1 million copies when the game first launched. In fact, Kingdom Come: Deliverance was one of the best games of 2018 that many could have easily missed out on due to bigger, more … [Read more...] about Kingdom Come: Deliverance Headlines August Humble Bundle

Shenmue 3 tells 40 percent of Ryo’s story according to Yu Suzuki
Fans will finally get to continue Ryu Hazuki’s story when Shenmue 3 releases later this fall. However, it seems his story won’t end with this game. Yu Suzuki has confirmed that Shenmue 3 tells 40 percent of Ryo’s story. Talking to Suzuki, USGamer recently asked if Shenmue 3 would conclude the series’ story. In response to this, the famed creator pointed to the halfway point of a nearby bottle. When asked if he meant that the game would be the halfway point of Ryo Hazuki’s story, Suzuki replied (via translator) that it would only reach “40 percent.” Now, die-hard Shenmue fans already know that the series isn’t supposed to end on its third outing. In an AMA on Reddit last year, Suzuki confirmed that Shenmue’s story spans a planned total of 11 chapters. His original plan involved dividing these chapters in to four or five games. With Shenmue 3 covering up to 40 percent of Ryo’s story then, it seems likely we’ll … [Read more...] about Shenmue 3 tells 40 percent of Ryo’s story according to Yu Suzuki
Wasteland 3 Coming To Console And PC Spring 2020
Deep Silver has announced that their partnership with inXile Entertainment will see the latest entry in the classic, post-apocalyptic RPG franchise, Wasteland, to both consoles and PC in the spring of 2020. Wasteland 3 will still feature the same brand of hardcore wasteland challenge but will also throw some brand-new features into the mix, including online co-op and a customizable vehicle that the player can use to get around the wasteland in style.The original Wasteland title was released back in 1988 and was a major source of inspiration for the original Fallout games, as well as post-apocalyptic video games as a whole. Wasteland 2 was released only a few years ago in the Fall of 2014, nearly 30 years after the original game, and revived the tough-as-nails strategy RPG to its seat as the king of the apocalypse. The third entry seems like it will be shaking up things even more, with some of the new features announced being features fans have been asking … [Read more...] about Wasteland 3 Coming To Console And PC Spring 2020
PC Gaming Show Offers New Look At Shenmue 3
Shenmue 3, the third release in Yu Suzuki’s much-loved Japanese action-adventure franchise, has arrived at E3 2019. Suzuki himself took the stage at the PC Gaming Show to reveal a brand new trailer for Shenmue 3, featuring the longest and most impressive look at gameplay yet. Perhaps the most notable aspect of the new trailer is just how authentic it is to the Shenmue gameplay fans remember from the previous games. To be fair, Shenmue 3 looks much improved from the footage that was first shown for the game. That said, it wouldn’t be Shenmue if it didn’t look a little bit janky, so in that framing, it’s very much on-brand. Animations are a little chunky, voicework lip-sync is completely off, and voicing itself sounds a little off in general. In other words, it’s exactly what Shenmue 3 should be and likely exactly what fans want. Alongside the rough animations and visuals, however, there’s a lot of the great Shenmue action and adventure well known to … [Read more...] about PC Gaming Show Offers New Look At Shenmue 3
No, Shenmue III is Not Coming to Xbox One
Despite reports that Shenmue III would come to the Xbox One, publisher Deep Silver announced that such reports were false. Initially, users on ResetEra noticed references on Deep Silver’s website for Shenmue III to the Xbox One. The HTML suggested that hidden platforms and a collector’s edition existed for the Xbox One. Additionally, references to Steam were also noted, and with E3 beginning this weekend, users speculated that pre-orders might open up during the show, ahead of the November 19th release date.Unfortunately, Deep Silver thoroughly quashed these rumors via a statement on Twitter: The rumor-busting by Deep Silver is certainly unfortunate, particularly for Xbox owners who hoped to get their hands on Shenmue III. What’s interesting is that Shenmue I & II, modern releases of the legendary life-simulation adventure games, were made available on PS4, PC, and Xbox One. It then follows that Deep Silver and developers YS Net and Neilo would naturally … [Read more...] about No, Shenmue III is Not Coming to Xbox One
