Official promo artwork for Space Hulk: Deathwing Enhanced Edition

Space Hulk: Deathwing had a lot of potential behind it, but unfortunately it launched with a whole bunch of bugs and gameplay problems, problems that just made it feel far too underwhelming. With that in mind, I am now delighted to say that the developers have finally released an Enhanced Edition on both PC and PS4, bringing with it solutions to many of the community's complaints.

What this means in gameplay terms is that the Enhanced Edition has introduced a variety of new weapons, the Chaplain as a new playable class, new enemy types and the "highly-replayable" Special Missions mode, as well as the ability to go in-depth with class customization. Perhaps most importantly, all of these features have been added to the PC version for free, while also serving as base content for the newly launched PS4 version!

Official artwork for the classic FPS Unreal Gold

While it's unfortunately not as relevant these days as it was in the olden times, I am still happy to announce that the Unreal series is now celebrating its 20th birthday. And what better way to celebrate such a momentous occasion than by giving everyone a chance to play the game that started it all - the original Unreal!

So if you're up for a blast from the past, simply head on over to GOG or Steam in order to claim a free copy of Unreal Gold. The promotion will only last for another ~40 hours, so if you're interested make sure to pick up your copy as soon as possible.

Overwatch Anniversary 2018 screenshot of Moira, Doomfist and Sombra dancing

After being teased for a little while now, the Overwatch Anniversary 2018 update has finally made its way to the live servers. It has brought with it a variety of new cosmetics to collect, as well as all of the previous seasonable brawls and skins, so if you've missed out on any of the past events, now is your chance to catch up!

Since trying to describe these new cosmetics through words alone is a bit of a pointless task, allow me to share with you the recently posted trailer. It's one of the best edited non-cinematic videos the Overwatch team has posted so far, especially when it comes to how the music syncs up with the action, so I'd definitely recommend you give it a look. Here's the video:

Crusader Kings 2 official artwork for the upcoming Holy Fury DLC

Crusader Kings 2 devs have recently announced a plethora of upgrades and improvements to the crusade system, changes that are now starting to appear even more impactful given that the newly revealed Holy Fury DLC is aiming to expand upon the system even further. Besides deeper gameplay for the crusades themselves, the Holy Fury DLC will also add a much more interesting progression system for Pagans, a whole bunch of changes to religion, as well as bonuses for descendants of "legendary" figures like Charlemagne and Genghis Khan. 

Perhaps most interestingly of all, at least as far as my playstyle is concerned, Holy Fury will also add the ability to start on a completely fictional and randomized map of Europe. The landmass is unfortunately going to be exactly the same, but all of the factions and their starting 'powers' will be swapped around, which should provide some rather interesting gameplay opportunities!

The Elder Scrolls Online official artwork for the new Summerset expansion

The Elder Scrolls Online's upcoming expansion will be shifting the action to Summerset, the ancient home of the High Elves and an area we have not been able to journey to since the very first and very old Elder Scrolls game. You can expect to see a variety of new and detailed zones to explore, a whole bunch of new storylines to unravel and enemy factions to thwart, the ability to join the mysterious Psijic order in order to learn new abilities, and naturally, a variety of public dungeons, delves, bosses and group content to tackle. 

While the newly posted cinematic trailer won't tell you much about the gameplay, it will at least give you a sneak peek of some of the areas you'll get to explore, as well as the figures you'll be meeting along the way. Have a look, and make sure to pay attention to the backgrounds as there are quite a few intriguing individuals shown throughout the trailer:

Divinity: Original Sin 2 official artwork showing the main cast

As I've mentioned in my review, Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a pretty darn good game, so good in fact that I called it "one of the best RPGs I have played in quite a few years." While I continue to stand by all of that, even I have to admit that Divinity: Original Sin 2 has quite a few little annoyances sprinkled throughout its lengthy campaign, especially once you start heading towards the end-game.

With that in mind, I am now very glad to announce that much like its predecessor, Divinity: Original Sin 2 will be getting a Definitive Edition! The exact release date hasn't been revealed just yet, but you can expect to see it this August with a whole bunch of improvements in tow. I'm talking about things such as extensive dialogue rewrites, greatly improved quests and characters, a redesigned journal, a brand new party-wide inventory option, as well as the much-requested ability to mark stuff on the map.

Tomorrow, on May 22nd, Stellaris will be getting another major Story Pack - Distant Stars. As you might predict from the name alone, Distant Stars will be a discovery and exploration themed DLC that will have you venture into the deepest and darkest corners of space in order to search for anomalies, delve through ruins of long-forgotten civlizations, and maybe even befriend gigantic, space-faring 'critters'.

If you're curious about how all of this translates into actual gameplay, allow me to share with you the recently posted 'Feature Breakdown' video. It'll give you a pretty good idea of what the Distant Stars DLC is all about, and whether it's something you should be excited about or not. Have a gander:
