After being slightly delayed due to the sheer amount of content arriving alongside it, Guild Wars 2's Living World Season 4: Episode 3 - Long Live the Lich is set to arrive next week, on June 26th. Besides having a ridiculously long title, Episode 3 will bring with it a new chapter of the ongoing "Living World" storyline, an expansive new map to explore, a new legendary item, and perhaps most importantly of all, a surprisingly adorable Roller Beetle mount to acquire and immediately paint over!
If you're wondering what exactly all of this might look like in gameplay terms, wonder no more as the developers have just posted a brief trailer. It's well worth checking out, if only for the new mount alone!
Wolfenstein Youngblood will be a co-op continuation of The New Colossus storyline

In a bit of an interesting twist, Bethesda has announced that the next Wolfenstein game will not only be co-op focused, but that it will not star B.J. as the main character! Instead, it will be his twin daughters that will have to take up the mantle of Nazi-slayers 19 years after the end of The New Colossus. We're now just one step closer to Commander Keen!
Silliness aside, if you're wondering what all of this might look like in-game, allow me to share with you the recently posted teaser trailer. It's not as revealing as I or many others have hoped, but it'll at least give you a bit of an idea of what to expect from Youngblood. Have a look:
Wreckfest, previously known as the Next Car Game, has now landed on Steam

After a rather lengthy development process, the "Next Car Game" has now finally released in full as Wreckfest. As you might imagine from the name alone, Wreckfest is a demolition derby themed racing game with a focus on fairly realistic crashes, detailed damage modelling and in-depth driving mechanics.
If you're wondering what all of this might look like in gameplay terms, allow me to share with you the recently posted launch trailer. It'll give you a pretty darn good idea of what Wreckfest is all about. Have a look:
Rage 2 has been pinned for a Spring of 2019 release date alongside a lengthy new gameplay trailer

After being leaked a rather impressive amount of times, Bethesda has recently come out with the official announcement for Rage 2. As you might expect given the original Rage, the sequel is going to be a first-person shooter set in a dystopian future, though thankfully this future won't be a gray and boring one. Instead, Rage 2 is going to be all about fast-paced gameplay, colorful levels, and ridiculously over-the-top kills.
Since trying to explain this through words alone is a bit of a pointless task, allow me to share with you two of the recently posted gameplay trailers. They'll give you a pretty darn good idea of just what Rage 2 is and whether it's the sort of thing you'd even enjoy. Have a look, they're quite fun videos:
Quake Champions will be free to play for an additional weekend, until June 25th

If you've managed to miss the recent Quake Champions free weekend, you're in luck as the developers have just announced a lengthy extension! So if you're up for some oldschool arena carnage simply head on over to Steam, click on that green "Install Game" button, and you'll be tearing your enemies into tiny little giblets in no time.
It's also worth mentioning that if you log in before June 25th you will be able to keep playing even after the free weekend is over. You will only have access to the basic champions and you'll need to acquire the rest through in-game currency, but all of the important gameplay stuff will be available to you from the very beginning, so I'd say it's definitely worth checking out.
Soulcalibur VI will be releasing on October 19th for both PC and consoles

After a rather lengthy hiatus since Soulcalibur V's 2012 release date, the classic fighting game series is now just about ready to make its hopefully triumphant return. According to the most recent story trailer, Soulcalbur VI will be coming to PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One this October 19th.
While the story itself should be fairly self-explanatory at this point, you'll find the recently posted and rather action-packed trailer right below. Have a look, it's quite entertaining in a cheesy sort of way:
Life is Strange and its prequel Before the Storm are currently on a deep discount on Steam

If you ever wanted to give the Life is Strange series a try, now would be a very good time to do so! For the next two days both the original Life is Strange and its prequel Life is Strange: Before the Storm are going to be on a deep discount on Steam, so if you're even remotely interested I would highly recommend you give them a shot.
For those of you that might not even know what Life is Strange is all about, allow me to share the original launch trailer. It's a little bit on the cheesy side, but I think it does a pretty good job of setting up the story and characters. Have a look:
