While the quality of The Walking Dead games hasn't exactly been the greatest outside of Telltale's series, there is a bit of hope on the horizon. Survios, the developers behind the highly enjoyable VR game Raw Data, have now announced that they are working on the VR-based The Walking Dead Onslaught.
You can get a bit of a sneak peek at what The Walking Dead Onslaught will be like, as well as what sort of weapons you will get to use, through the recently posted teaser trailer. Have a gander, but don't expect much in terms of actual gameplay as this is just a teaser:
World of Warcraft's latest cinematic Safe Haven depicts Thrall's long-awaited return to the Horde

The current Horde storyline in World of Warcraft is in quite a predicament. On one hand there's a large amount of people who absolutely hate Sylvanas and the shift towards the Horde being the objectively evil faction, while on the other hand you have a sizable chunk of people who hate how the entire storyline right now seems to be centered around undermining everything Sylvanas does. It really is a bit of a mess.
While the solution to this problem doesn't appear to be coming anytime soon, I am happy to say that the story is getting a bit more interesting, as you'll see in the recently posted Safe Haven cinematic. Have a gander, it's quite a lovely one:
RAGE 2 has now landed onto PC and consoles alongside some rather mixed reviews

After a massive amount of previews and trailers, RAGE 2 has now finally made its way to PC and consoles. As you would expect, RAGE 2 is a first-person shooter set in a dystopian future, though unlike it's predecessor, it is a lot more colorful, cheesy and delightfully over-the-top.
If you're wondering how all of that translates into actual gameplay, and especially the last few parts, allow me to share with you the recent launch trailer. Have a gander, it's certainly an interesting one:
Ubisoft's pirate-themed adventure Skull & Bones has been delayed once more

Originally, Ubisoft's pirate-themed adventure Skull & Bones was lauded as a competitor to Sea of Thieves, and it genuinely seemed like it could blow it out of the water with superior visuals and better ship controls. However, while Sea of Thieves ended up being released and patched multiple times over, the only real pieces of information we got from Skull & Bones were news about delays.
I would love to tell you this is where Skull & Bones turns the ship around and truly makes a name for itself, but I'm afraid we're in for a repeat of everything that has happened so far. In other words, Skull & Bones has been delayed yet again, and there is still no official release date set for it.
The Epic Games Store is currently running a massive sale featuring some of the newest games

Even though the Epic Games Store released a while back, it has almost continuously managed to find itself in the center of one controversy or another. This is partly due to some of the technical problems behind the storefront itself, and partly because Epic has decided to compete with Steam by purchasing as many exclusives as possible, even if those games have already promised Steam keys to their buyers.
With that in mind, I am very glad to say that the Epic Games Store has now finally done something that can be considered as universally positive: a massive sale featuring some of the newest games out there. Until June 13th just about every single game on the Epic Games Store will be on a decent discount, while Epic themselves will be providing an additional $10 off for every game that costs more than $15.
Legend of Grimrock devs have released a new turn-based tactics game - Druidstone

After apparently getting tired of delving through damp and dark dungeons, the Legend of Grimrock devs have now released a colorful and charming turn-based tactics game called Druidstone: The Secret of the Menhir Forest. You can expect to see a variety of unique characters and abilities, plenty of upgrades and items to collect, as well as numerous hand-crafted missions that will require a bit of thought in order to complete.
Rather than babble on, allow me to share with you the recently posted and fairly lengthy gameplay preview. It'll give you an excellent idea of just what Druidstone is about, as well as whether it's the type of game you'd enjoy or not. Have a look:
Guild Wars 2's Episode 6 - War Eternal has now arrived alongside an awesome new flying amount
- By Ash

If you're as much of a fan of Guild Wars 2's mounts as I am, you might be glad to hear that Episode 6 - War Eternal has now brought with it the second flying mount - the Skyscale. Unlike the Griffon which needs to already be on an elevated position in order to get any flying done, the Skyscale will allow you to cling to sheer cliffs in order to climb them, after which you'll be able to spread your wings and explore the world from the skies. It really is a pretty cool mount!
The update has also added a brand new storyline to experience, and as is tradition, another giant map to explore with your new mount. There will also be an upgradeable armor set to collect, a legendary greatsword that changes form depending on what sort of attack you're using, as well as a bunch of other collectibles to keep yourself busy with.
