Blood Bowl 2: Legendary Edition screenshot of the Kislev team and their bear

For those of you that might not be aware, Blood Bowl 2 is essentially an insane combination of American football and Warhammer brutality. What this means in gameplay terms is that each match features about as many murders and dismemberments as it does touchdowns, though with half the 'athletes' being bloodthirsty Orks and Chaos abominations this really shouldn't come as too big of a surprise.

After already releasing a variety of DLC factions, Blood Bowl 2 developers have now announced not only a brand new expansion, but also a new Legendary Edition that will come with absolutely all of the content neatly bundled. If you need a quick overview of what exactly that content even is, you'll find what you seek in the most recent developer video. Have a look:

Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier official artwork

With the modern Planet of the Apes movies becoming more and more popular it was only a matter of time before someone decided to make a tie-in game. Thankfully, instead of a dreadfully generic third-person action game the newly announced Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier is a Telltale-esque adventure that seems to be quite faithful to the source material.

Since trying to explain these types of games through words alone is not the easiest of tasks, allow me to share with you the recently posted gameplay video. Its decently lengthy, and with pretty much all of the gameplay mechanics on display it should give you a good idea of whether Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier is something you'd be interested in.

Starcraft 2 screenshot of a Dark Templar

While Starcraft 2's balance is currently in a fairly nice place, there is a bit of a problem with certain tactics and units being far superior than their counterparts which tends makes matches predictable, and consequently boring for the average player. In an effort to fix this, and also make Starcraft 2 much more exciting to play, Blizzard has just announced a variety of massive balance changes and unit reworks.

The amount of minerals present in each base has been slightly increased in order to give players the ability to mount a comeback, numerous units and abilities have been completely redesigned, the obnoxious Widow Mines have been made easier to clean up when unattended, the Protoss Mothership Core has been entirely removed, and the list goes on for quite a while. There are simply far too many changes for me to summarize, so if you're interested in all of the details you should head over to the Starcraft 2 website.

Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet official artwork without logo

Given the continuous popularity of the show it really shouldn't come as much of a surprise to hear that Bandai Namco has now announced a brand new third-person shooter RPG based on Sword Art Online. More specifically, the newly revealed Fatal Bullet will be based on the "Gun Gale Online" chapter and will feature many of the most iconic locations from the show.

If you're wondering how all of this is going to transition into actual gameplay, wonder no more as Bandai Namco has also released a brief trailer showcasing both the visuals and gameplay. Have a look:

Children of Morta screenshot of green crystal pylons

Children of Morta is an upcoming hack and slash roguelike with a rather intriguing premise. Instead of playing as just one character, you will constantly be swapping between different members of the Bergson household, always making sure to balance potentially deadly adventuring with family obligations. I'm not exactly certain how it works, but I do like the idea of having your children eventually take over the 'adventuring business' while your initial character just gets to sit down and relax in their old age.

A lot of Children of Morta's charm comes from the visuals and overall presentation, so if you're even remotely interested in the concept I would recommend you check out the most recent gameplay trailer. Have a look, its quite pleasing on the eyes:

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider screenshot of a new crystal enemy

In Dishonored: Death of the Outsider we will be taking on the role of the rather intriguing Billie Lurk as she reunites with her mentor Daud in an effort to plan out the most ambitious assassination the world has ever seen. As you might guess from the name alone, we will be attempting to take down the nearly godlike Outsider in order to stop all of the cults and magical nonsense from wreaking chaos across the world.

Killing a god, however, is not exactly an easy task, especially when he's also the source of most of your powers. So if you're wondering what tricks Billie and Daud have tucked away in their sleeves, as well as what sort of enemies we'll get to fight and what locations we'll get to visit, you'll find some of the answers you seek in the most recent gameplay trailer down below.

Doomfist official screenshot from Overwatch

While I don't think Doomfist is as overpowered as some people say, the current hitbox for Rocket Punch is beyond ridiculous. Its so large that you can smash enemies into walls without being able to see them at all, sometimes even bending the laws of time and space and hitting people behind corners!

As such, I am very glad to say that Blizzard has now finally reduced the hitbox to a more realistic and balanced level. The change will come to the live servers alongside the Deathmatch update, but if you would like to test its impact you can do so right now by heading over to the PTR. If you can't be bothered to go to the PTR just to test one tiny little change, however, you'll find a rather good comparison over at the official subreddit, though I would still recommend you give the PTR a spin as the new Deathmatch mode is amazing!
