The Light Keeps Us Safe screenshot of a dreary green haze

The Signal from Tolva and Sir, You Are Being Hunted devs have now decided to continue their crusade against robot-kind with The Light Keeps Us Safe - a newly announced stealth and survival game set in a world where the Sun has died out, leaving the world shrouded in darkness and infested by creepy robots. As you might expect, you'll have to use your trusty light to avoid pursuit, dismantle traps, or simply distract the killer robots for long enough to sneak through their numerous checkpoints.

Trying to explain all of this through words alone is a bit of a pointless venture given how much of it relies on atmosphere, so allow me to instead share with you the recently posted gameplay teaser. It's a fairly brief video, but it should clue you in quite nicely. Have a peek:

Official artwork for The Last Remnant remaster

The Last Remnant was a rather creative JRPG that attempted to bring in a whole bunch of new gameplay systems and ideas into an often formulaic genre, and for the most part it managed to do so quite successfully. The parts where it failed, however, it failed in quite a spectacular fashion.

Most notably, you could completely ruin your entire playthrough by making some bad decisions early in the game, and the more you attempted to grind in order to correct those mistakes, the more messed up your playthrough would become. So if you didn't know what you were doing, like I didn't, your playthrough would most likely hit a hard wall at around 20 hours in. A rather massive flaw, I'm sure you'll agree, but the gameplay was still enjoyable enough that I gladly dived right back in to try again.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is set to arrive later this week, on September 14th, for both PC and consoles. It'll bring with it a much more badass version of Lara, as well as move the action from some fairly nondescript locations into quite literally the Mayan apocalypse, with all of the lush jungles, ancient temples and human sacrifices you might expect.

If you're wondering what all of this looks like in-game, as well as where the story itself is heading, you should check out the newly released launch trailer down below. Have a gander, it's a surprisingly well-done trailer:

Assassin's Creed Odyssey screenshot of a large-scale ship battle

Assassin's Creed Odyssey is set to arrive this October 5th, bringing with it a much greater degree of choice than the previous Assassin's Creed games. There will be various dialogue options to go through, two entirely different factions to ally yourself with, branching quests, multiple endings, and as is tradition, a giant world to explore by either land or sea.

If you're wondering whether your PC will even be able to run all of this, as well as what sort of performance you can expect to see, you might be interested to hear that Ubisoft has now released the minimum and recommended PC system requirements. Have a look:

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice screenshot of a battle against a giant enemy

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice will be coming this March 22nd for both PC and consoles. Given that this is FromSoftware we're talking about, you can expect to see numerous Bloodborne and Dark Souls elements make a reappearance, things such as the "challenging but fair" difficulty and gigantic 'levels filled with secrets. That said, Sekiro will have a much greater focus on action and mobility than either of its predecessors, something that is perhaps best exemplified through the fact that we will have a grappling hook to toy around with!

So if you're wondering what Sekiro looks like, and what exactly the combat is all about, allow me to share the recently posted trailer. I can't say it's the most detailed video around, but it sure is an exciting one for a Souls fan like myself! Have a gander:

Battlefield 5 artwork of tanks in a field

Battlefield 5 was supposed to arrive this October 19th for PC and consoles, but according to the latest blog post it has now been delayed in order to ensure it's as polished as it can be. You won't have to wait for too much longer, however, as Battlefield 5's new release date has been pinned on November 20th.

"We’re going to take the time to continue to make some final adjustments to core gameplay, and to ensure we really deliver on the potential of Tides of War," reads the developer update. "We know moving the launch date means that we all have to wait a little longer. But we’re going to take our time to make sure we get it right."

Riot has announced that League of Legends will be getting a rather sizable update this September 12th. Patch 8.18 will bring in a brand new PvE mission by the name of Odyssey: Extraction, as well as a variety of cosmetics including epic skins for Jinxy, Yasuo, Sona, Malphite and Ziggs.
