The post The Future Games Show reveals a brand new Bright Memory: Infinite trailer appeared first on Game News.
]]>The game puts you in the role of Shelia – there just aren’t enough Sheila’s in video games these days – a member of the Supernatural Science Research Organisation. She’ll face wormholes, ancient samurai, and time travel, with combat that drew a comparison to “a first-person Devil May Cry” from our writer Josh West back in 2020.
“The gameplay of Bright Memory: Infinite is the sort of FPS-action type game that you can run through at high speed and pull off flashy combos and stuff,” developer Zeng Xiancheng told us then.
“It features more and more hardcore enemies as you progress through the later stages. Players can use a sword to destroy enemy armor and then use guns to do real damage and take them down – different skills must be used against different enemies for the best results.”
Bright Memory: Infinite was released on PC in 2021, but soon console players will have the chance to join in the fun. It’ll be released on Xbox Series X and S, PS5, and Nintendo Switch sometime in the future. If you can’t wait that long, you can always grab Bright Memory: Infinite on Steam now.
Just know that you’ll be missing out on the 2022 upgrades like support for a high frame rate mode for up to a maximum of 120 FPS, while the DXR version features a Raytracing Reflection 60 FPS mode. The PS5 version adds adaptive triggers, the Xbox versions have all-new in-game character skins, and on Switch, you’ll get gyro controls.
The Xbox Series X version comes with all-new in-game character skins, while the PS5 version features adaptive trigger support. On the other hand, the Switch version supports gyro controls and also adds multi-sampling of TAA anti-aliasing.

]]>The post Become a master samurai in Die by the Blade, the brutal 1v1 combat game coming later this year appeared first on Game News.
]]>From developer Triple Hill Interactive and publisher Kwalee comes one of the more brutal competitive games we’ve seen in 2022. In Die by the Blade, you’ll need to stand your ground in a samurai-punk world and attempt to survive intense 1v1 combat. Wield a variety of traditional Japanese weapons, tweak your moveset, and then launch yourself into encounters where one hit can be the difference between life and death.
We mean that literally, by the way. Die by the Blade moves at lightning speed, and it’s all about mastering the art of one-hit kills. It’s why it’s a game of defensive positioning as much as it is aggressive attacking, with careful parrying key to surviving for more than a few seconds. With a wide range of weapons and stances to master in local and online multiplayer, not to mention a host of customization features to make your fighter your own, Die by the Blade looks like one of those games that’ll truly put your reactions to the test.
Die by the Blade is set to launch on PC (Steam and the Epic Games Store), PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One in 2022. If the brand new gameplay trailer seen in the Futures Games Store piqued your interest, be sure to head over to Steam and add it to your wishlist (opens in new tab) to get news and updates on the game ahead of its release later this year.

]]>The post Its time to separate fact from fiction with MythBusters: The Game – Crazy Experiments Simulator appeared first on Game News.
]]>As seen during the Future Games Show, this is your chance to join the Mythbusters team and get the complete experience, which means you’ll have to carefully manage your stock of materials to construct the required props. Other equipment will need to be purchased without going over budget, so keep an eye on your bank balance and spend wisely.
The building itself takes place through a series of intuitive mini games, so whether you’re cutting up planks of wood, assembling boards into a human-sized cutout, or casually removing a grenade fuse, there’s a variety of ways to keep busy.
Next comes the really fun part, where you get to take everything you’ve built to the testing ground and actually conduct your outlandish experiments. Use the blueprints to set up your equipment, carry out tests to see what happens, then decide if you can conclusively Confirm or Bust the myth, or whether it’s merely Plausible.
With your experiments completed, it’s on to the video editing module to decide which sections to use as you cut the show together. Balance your production budget against your audience popularity, and you could have another hit episode on your hands.
MythBusters: The Game – Crazy Experiments Simulator is primed for an explosive launch on PC in Q2 2022, and you can add it to your Steam wishlist to keep up to date and sign up for the upcoming playtests (date TBC).

]]>The post Forever Skies shows off its survival action gameplay set in the skies of a ruined Earth with an exclusive extended trailer appeared first on Game News.
]]>Debuting its latest trailer at the Future Games Show, Forever Skies is a first-person action survival game, where you’re returning to Earth what seems like many decades after a devastating ecological disaster. There are secrets to discover as you try to figure out what happened all those years ago.
You’ll be flying in on your high-tech airship to survey what has been left behind – think crumbling skyscrapers poking through clouds. These are the ruins of what was built up to escape the dust below, where you’ll also explore to discover how things have changes and adapted. There is also now debris caused by a strange anomaly that you’ll be able to use to help you survive.
A lot of what you’ll be doing is also building up, expanding and further customising your airshop. This is your home, your workshop, your lab, and more and is utterly essential to your survival. Over time, you’ll make your airship uniquely yours – and not only by the patchwork you’ll need to do to keep the hull intact.
It’ll also be your mode of transport as you explore the ruins of the Earth that came before.
Forever Skies is in development by Far From Home, which is a team that’s based in Wroclaw Poland and made up of industry veterans that have worked on titles such as Dying Light, Divinity Original Sin, The Medium, Outriders, League of Legends and more.
It’s dropping on PC via Steam sometime in 2022, and is also being developed for Xbox Series X and PS5 for a later launch. You can wishlist it on Steam right here (opens in new tab).

]]>The post Terror of Hemasaurus is a retro delight that sends you on a monstrous rampage to destroy the city appeared first on Game News.
]]>Shown as part of the Future Games Show in our Virtual Show Floor (reserved for games with live Steam demos) the game revolves around The Church of the Holy Lizard’s misguided scheme to make humanity confront the impending climate catastrophe… by releasing a giant monster! Naturally this backfires immediately, so your role as said beast is to cause as much mayhem and terror as possible.
There are four different monsters to choose from including the eponymous Hemasaurus, with each having their own special abilities and moves. What’s more, if you have friends round you can work together to take the town apart with up to four player local co-op.
- Wishlist Terror of Hemasaurus now on Steam (opens in new tab) (and play the demo!)
At first the gameplay will seem familiar to those who remember the arcade classic Rampage, but Terror of Hemasaurus stands apart from that with the addition of physics. Tower blocks collapse sideways when damaged enough, falling into other buildings to cause a destructive domino effect while flames and explosions tear through the structures.
To add to the carnage, there are many inventive ways you can dispatch the unfortunate citizens running around the city – chomp them down, punt cars at them, slam them with your butt, fling them into helicopter blades… the possibilities are endless.
Terror of Hemasaurus is smashing onto the scene later in Q2 / Q3 2022 for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, and you can wishlist it on Steam right now (opens in new tab) for further updates. Be on the lookout for a super secret easter egg in the Terror of Hemasaurus demo, too – there may be a reward involved!
