Well, the Future Games Show is always full of surprises, but we've not had one quite like this before. We've just had the reveal of a game that's currently codenamed Project Mango, and it's a collaboration between Toukana Interactive - aka the developers behind chill puzzle game Dorfromantik - and kurzgesagt, the hugely popular animated science storytellers of YouTube fame.
The Sims doesn't have a plot, or any kind of story really, beyond what the player makes up for it. It's a «life simulation» sandbox game in which «sims» live out their day-to-day lives, furnishing houses, establishing relationships, pursuing careers, maybe dying in swimming pools, all under the control of the player and with no particular narrative direction. And somehow, it's being made into a movie.
AMD has a new version of its FidelityFX Super Resolution upscaling: FSR 3.1. The new and improved upscaling algorithm includes temporal stability improvements, which essentially makes for less of that annoying flickering that could be present on details on previous versions.
There's great news for gamers interested in playing Dragon's Dogma 2 without having a beefy PC: NVIDIA has just announced that CAPCOM's open world game will be available at launch via its GeForce NOW cloud platform. Despite the fact that the previous installment is supported on GeForce NOW, the same was far from a given for the sequel. While the Japanese publisher has agreed to add games like Exoprimal, Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7, and Devil May Cry 5 to GFN, Resident Evil Village and Resident Evil 4 are still nowhere to be seen, and the same goes for Street Fighter 6.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar is a great wargame, but it is a little dense - and publisher Games Workshop seems to recognize that, because it's launching a more accessible match type.
Look, I won't go so far to say I'm a fan of the last couple of Alien movies—who could forgive the undodgeable space wheel or Michael Fassbender's «I'll do the fingering» line—but I am enough of an apologist to be excited about the next one. All of which is to say, hey, here's the first teaser trailer for Alien: Romulus, the next one, which arrives in theatres on August 16.
If you asked me to make a list of the most stressful video games of all time, Lunar Lander would be pretty high up there. The Atari classic is a masterclass in minimalist tension, asking players to land spaceships on rocky planets very gingerly. Those who experienced that game when it launched could probably regale you with war stories about their space-faring escapades, but Atari is about to give players a new panic attack.
The first trailer for new Star Wars series The Acolyte has arrived, and it looks epic.
