Iron Harvest screenshot of a gigantic mech in the distance

[Update]: Iron Harvest now has a free demo available, though only until June 22, 2020.

Iron Harvest is an upcoming real-time strategy game set in an alternate history version of the 1920s. While the battles still primarily consist of infantry supported with artillery and heavy weapons, there are also highly-maneuverable battle-mechs, walking bunkers, sword-wielding robots, as well as a variety of other crazy, yet incredibly impressive technology.

Since this is one of those games you simply need to see in order to understand, allow me to share with you the recently posted teaser trailer. It doesn't feature much in terms of gameplay, but it should be enough to give you a good idea of just what kind of RTS Iron Harvest truly is. Have a look:

Divinity: Original Sin 2 official artwork of all of the companions

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is an upcoming turn-based RPG with a heavy focus on combat. It features a variety of elemental combos with highly explosive results, a whole bunch of different spells and abilities to mess around with, and naturally, multiple unique classes to pick and choose from.

Ideally you will want to play Divinity: Original Sin 2 in four player co-op as that would give you the best experience possible, but if you don't have enough friends interested in RPGs, worry not as there will be plenty of NPC followers to help you along on your journey. Since choosing which companions to bring with you on your very first playthrough is an immensely important decision, you might be glad to hear that the developers have now released a whole bunch of brief trailers showcasing their personalities and goals. Have a look, its quite an interesting selection of videos:

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana official artwork of the two main characters

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana was supposed to arrive on PC today, but I'm afraid that's not going to be happening. According to a recent developer update, Ys VIII has been delayed until further notice in order to improve gameplay quality and to enhance the overall experience.

The announcement message has not provided any details, but a game being delayed so suddenly on the eve of its release is usually an indicator of something going terribly, terribly wrong. On the positive side, it does also mean that the developers truly care about making a quality PC port as I cannot imagine this decision being made lightly. The new release date will be announced as soon as its available, but for now we're sadly stuck in the dark.

PUBG screenshot of the new Mini-14 marksman rifle

After quite a few complaints about untested features and buggy patches, PUBG developers have recently announced that they will be slowing down the pace of updates in order to increase their quality. Whether that's going to end up being the case, we'll find out soon enough as the September update is now being pushed onto the test servers.

The highlights of the update include foggy weather that significantly hinders the player's sight, a brand new town located East of Stalber, as well as a lightweight and compact 5.56 semi-automatic rifle by the name of Mini-14. Besides the bits of new content, the update will also bring with it some noticeable improvements for low-end PCs, as well as various bug fixes. If you're interested in all of the details you will find the full patch notes on Steam.

The Evil Within 2 screenshot of a monster with a melted head

The Evil Within 2 will have us follow detective Sebastian Castellanos as he teams up with the shadowy organization Mobious in order to save his daughter from certain doom. Along the way we'll need to deal with some questionable characters, cleave through hordes upon hordes of mutated monstrosities, and come face to face with madness itself.

If you're wondering just what sort of madness we're talking about, wonder no more as the developers have recently posted a video briefly outlining the story, as well as showcasing a variety of rather disgusting horrors. Have a look, its well worth the minute:

Biomutant up-close screenshot of the main character

[Update #2]: Biomutant has now been pinned for a May 25, 2021 release date!

[Update]: THQ Nordic has released a lengthy preview showing off what Biomutant has to offer!

Biomutant is an upcoming open-world, post-apocalyptic Kung-Fu RPG that will allow you to mix melee, shooting, and mutant abilities in order to devastate everything in your path. Most importantly of all, Biomutant is an incredibly imaginative game filled with bizarre yet charming characters, as well as some rather lovely environments.

Rather than waste your time trying to explain this through words alone, allow me to instead share with you the most recent gameplay trailer. It will give you a pretty damn good idea of why I'm so impressed with Biomutant's style, as well as offer a brief glimpse at what it's gameplay is all about. Have a gander:

The Elder Scrolls Online screenshot of the new Clockwork City

Much like the relatively recent Update 15, The Elder Scrolls Online's upcoming Clockwork City patch will come in two parts: one entirely free for all players, and the other exclusive to those that buy the DLC. In terms of free content you're looking at a new Battlegrounds game mode for ESO: Morrowind, Xbox One X support, as well as a host of balance changes, bug fixes, and some much needed quality of life improvements.

The Clockwork City DLC itself, however, offers much more interesting features. It'll bring with it a brand new and rather beautiful zone to explore, a new story quest revolving around a Daedra conspiracy that will send you to the heart of the machine realm, a new fast-paced Trial designed to challenge even the most seasoned of veterans, and naturally, a variety of new enemies to beat up along the way.
