Skull and Bones, the official pirate simulator of the Singaporean government, is setting sail for season 1 in the wake of its release earlier this month, and Ubisoft is touting some stats to celebrate.
While anticipation builds for the next Tomb Raider game, and fans enjoy the recently released remasters of the original trilogy, an unexpected new addition to the series has been announced: a tabletop RPG.
There was a time where the idea of a TV or movie adaptation for your favourite game would fill you with dread—but with shows like Castlevania, Cyberpunk 2077: Edgerunners, Netflix: The Witcher, HBO's The Last of Us, and Arcane bucking that trend? I think a Deep Rock Galactic show could be pretty damn good.
Every February, Kickstarter holds a month-long celebration of tabletop RPGs called ZineQuest, featuring all sorts of crowdfunded zines. What's a zine, you ask? It's a short, self-published book, in this context usually an adventure, a supplement, or a small, self-contained game.
Alan Wake 2 was beloved by critics when it launched in October last year, with our own Robin Valentine awarding it a score of 89 in his Alan Wake 2 review calling it «a glorious sprawl of surreal horror» that «will stay with you long after you've seen every terrifying encounter, cheesy manuscript page, and quirky local TV commercial». But critical praise is not necessarily indicative of commercial success, and there was a question surrounding Remedy's wilfully odd survival horror sequel – would anyone actually buy it?
After years of delays, disappointing previews, and a beta our own Tyler Wilde described as «cheesy and unnatural», I think it's fair to say a bit of scepticism about the launch of Skull and Bones this Friday is sensible. Hopefully it is good, but if it does turn out to be a load of old hornswoggle, I think I've at least found an alternative.
Playing Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor's demo last year, I already felt like I'd discovered a promising vein of gold. Playing a preview of the game's full Early Access build this week has been like digging through and finding a whole glittering cavern of riches. As a big fan of Vampire Survivors-inspired games, I think this is my favourite yet—and it's out today.
Cubicle 7 has announced a new Warhammer tabletop RPG, based on Warhammer: The Old World. You may know the company already for its many other games set in Games Workshop's worlds, including Wrath & Glory, Imperium Maledictum, and Soulbound.
