The highly anticipated release of Frostpunk 2 has been pushed from July 25, 2024, to September 20, 2024. This delay, according to PC Gamer, is intended to ensure that new features are available in the game on launch day rather than being added through post-release patches. The developers at 11 bit studios believe this approach will provide players with a more polished and complete gaming experience right from the start.
Having spent many hours playing the original Frostpunk, I can appreciate the commitment to delivering a well-rounded game. The first installment's intricate city-building and survival mechanics set a high bar, and it's exciting to see the developers strive to enhance the sequel further. For those eager to get a glimpse of what's to come, the official trailer provides a chilling preview of the game's intense atmosphere and challenging gameplay.
While there is no confirmed release date yet for Resident Evil 2 on GOG, fans of the classic survival horror game have a reason to be excited. As reported by IGN, the GOG port will be based on the original 1998 PC version rather than the more commonly circulated Sourcenext version. This news has sparked nostalgia among long-time fans who first experienced the game's terrifying Raccoon City setting over two decades ago.
For those new to the series or looking to revisit it, GOG offers the first Resident Evil game and a bundle that includes the original versions of Resident Evil 1, 2, and 3. This port aims to capture the authentic experience of the 1998 release, allowing both veterans and newcomers to enjoy the game's iconic moments. The 1998 live-action trailer directed by George A. Romero, available on Residence of Evil, is a perfect throwback to the game's original marketing.
The upcoming title, Life is Strange Double Exposure, introduces Max Caulfield as the main protagonist. Fans will remember Max from the first Life is Strange game, where her time-manipulating abilities and emotional journey captivated players. The new trailer gives an in-depth look at her character and sets the stage for what promises to be another heart-wrenching adventure. Life is Strange Double Exposure is set to release on October 29, 2024, and will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
As someone deeply invested in the Life is Strange series, I'm particularly excited about this release. The narrative-driven gameplay and emotionally charged storylines of the previous games have set high expectations for Double Exposure. This new installment promises to delve deeper into Max's psyche and expand on the rich, interactive storytelling that has defined the series.
