    Nocturnal 2 is a masterclass in atmosphere

    Showing off the game’s stunning hand-drawn art.

    The flame returns.

    I’ve been diving into Nocturnal 2, and the hand-drawn animation is absolutely breathtaking. There is nothing more satisfying than the “Fire Starter” mechanic—striking a torch to imbue your blade with light and slicing through the gloom of Yran.

    If you loved the first game’s challenge but wanted more exploration and non-linear paths, this is it. The world feels bigger, the shadows feel darker, and the combat is tighter than ever.

  • Communication is key in the Follow Us game

    Communication is key in the Follow Us game

    This is a game for two players, one takes on the role of the explorer following the path laid down by an ancient and somewhat haunted map, the other takes on the role of the guide, ensuring that the explorer is safe and heading in the right direction.

    This is where communication comes in; both players can switch roles, but with each mission being different, the challenge is to get through each level. Do you have the skills and logic to reach the end?

    The Entity has pulled back the veil on the highly anticipated Stranger Things Chapter 2 for Dead by Daylight! Whether you’re a legacy player or a newcomer to the Upside Down, it’s time to gear up for a new round of supernatural survival.

  • New gameplay trailer for Styx: Blades of Greed

    New gameplay trailer for Styx: Blades of Greed

    After a nine-year hiatus, the gaming world’s most cynical and foul-mouthed goblin is returning to the shadows. Developed by Cyanide Studio and published by Nacon, Styx: Blades of Greed is the third instalment in the stealth-action series, following Master of Shadows (2014) and Shards of Darkness (2017).

    Scheduled for release on February 19, 2026, the game looks to evolve the franchise’s “hardcore stealth” roots into a more expansive, sandbox experience.


    A New Era of Goblin Greed

    Set immediately after the cliffhanger ending of Shards of Darkness, Blades of Greed serves as a narrative bridge to the events of Of Orcs and Men. For the first time, Styx is no longer just a hired hand; he is a boss leading his own crew from a personal zeppelin.

    The central MacGuffin this time is Quartz, a mysterious and volatile power source. As the continent of Iserian teeters on the edge of a Great War between humans, elves, and orcs, Styx aims to snatch as much Quartz as possible, which simultaneously grants him devastating new magical abilities.


    Expanded Gameplay & Traversal

    While previous entries were known for their tight, linear levels, Blades of Greed introduces a Metroidvania-style structure across three massive open environments:

    • The Wall: A brutal human military stronghold.
    • Turquoise Dawn: A lush, vertical orc village.
    • Akenash: The ruins of the ancient elven capital.

    New Tools for the Master of Shadows

    To navigate these larger spaces, Cyanide has overhauled Styx’s mobility:

    • The Glider: Allows Styx to soar across gaps and drop onto unsuspecting guards from above.
    • Grappling Hook: Adds significant verticality, letting players zip to rafters and hidden ledges.
    • Metal Claws: Enable Styx to scale surfaces that were previously unreachable.

    Stealth vs. Combat

    The developers have doubled down on the “pure stealth” philosophy. Direct combat remains deliberately clunky and punishing—Styx is a goblin, not a gladiator, and can be killed in just two or three hits.

    Instead, players are encouraged to use creativity over brawn. You can extinguish torches with sand, poison food supplies, rig chandeliers to fall, or use Quartz-powered abilities like Time Shift and Mind Control to turn enemies against one another.
