Starbreeze Entertainment's popular heist-'em-up shooter returns with Payday 3. It's a game fans have been aware of for a while, but it's now secured a publisher in Prime Matter. Coming to PC and consoles, it's still a ways off, pencilled in for 2023. However, given the success of previous entries, this is one of the safer titles in Prime Matter's i...
This one's only coming to PC, but we're including it for completion's sake. Crossfire: Legion is a real-time strategy take on the popular first person shooter. Developed by Blackbird Interactive, it's a tactical, isometric spin-off heading our way in 2022.
The next game in the classic turn-based RPG series, King's Bounty II will be published under Prime Matter. Releasing on PC and consoles, this is a strategic adventure set in a fantasy world where various factions vie for power. It's due out pretty soon, on 24th August 2021.
The Last Oricru is a third person action RPG from developer Gold Knights. Scheduled for release on PC and consoles in 2022, the game looks a little Souls-esque, but with an emphasis on choice-driven story that will influence your playthrough. It'll also feature drop-in, drop-out local co-op, so you can explore its blend of medieval fantasy and sci-...
This one is also PC only, but it looks very interesting. Encased is an isometric RPG akin to games like Divinity or Baldur's Gate. The difference is that it takes place in a retro sci-fi setting, providing a lighter, more humorous spin on the post-apocalypse.
Announced a while back but delayed to make a "cooler game", Gungrave G.O.R.E. is a violent third person shooter where you'll be murdering everything with bloodthirsty style. Details are slim, but we did get to see a pretty slick CG video that gave us a good idea of what to expect. Which is to say, lots of shooting and lots of blood. Anyway, the gam...
This is a new IP from developer Brass Token. It's a horror action title set within a spiritual retreat. Expect a psychedelic experience as you explore the unique setting and discover the cosmic horrors that lie in wait. It's set to deal with themes like "the dark sides of spirituality" and "cultism". This one could be very interesting indeed — it's...
Reikon Games is developing Final Form, a sci-fi first person shooter. An "adrenaline fuelled futuristic FPS", players control cybernetic Valkyries in a fight against an unknown enemy force. Customising your Valkyrie with skills and cosmetics, you can play solo or team up for three-player co-op. There's no release window attached, but it's heading t...
Developed by Massive Work Studio, Dolmen is a sci-fi thriller action RPG. Playing as a lone scout in a hostile world, you'll go up against otherworldly horrors while trying to reconnect with humanity. Watching early footage, this one seems like a pretty slow-paced, methodical game in which you can employ ranged or melee combat. Releasing on PC and ...
Myrkur Games is behind Echoes of the End, one of the most intriguing games in this lineup. Running on Unreal Engine 5, you play as Ryn as she searches for her true purpose. It's a story-driven, third person action adventure in a fantastical world, and the early footage we saw looked pretty impressive. It's in development for PC and ninth-generation...
