Conan the Barbarian from Conan Exiles

Conan Exiles is an upcoming open-world survival game with a heavy focus on teamwork, base-building, and raiding whatever other people have built because its easier than doing it yourself. If you would like to learn more about the gameplay I would recommend you head over here to check out one of the most recent preview videos.

Given the current state of pretty much every survival game my hopes for Conan Exiles weren't really all that high, but after reading the latest announcement I must say I'm slightly intrigued. Apparently the PC version will not only support community hosted servers where the players get to make the rules, but mods will also be fully supported and connected to the incredibly convenient Steam Workshop. In other words, Funcom seems to have the right idea if their goal is to promote teamwork and cooperation over wanton bloodshed!

Hive Jump frantic battle against a boss

Hive Jump is sci-fi action platformer where you get to face off against swarms of aliens in frantic close quarters combat across a variety of procedurally generated levels. But perhaps most importantly, you can do all of this in either solo mode, local co-op on one PC, or through online multiplayer with up to three other players. So if you're looking for a bit of a party game you might want to take a closer look at Hive Jump.

And speaking of looks, if you're interested in seeing a glimpse of what Hive Jump has to offer, you'll find one of the most recent trailers down below. If you don't care about any of the story, simply skip to around 10 seconds in the video and you should be straight in the action. Anyway, have a gander:

WWE 2K17 screenshot from the PC version

If you were itching for a bit of "totally not fake" wrestling on your PC, you'll be glad to hear that WWE 2K17 will be arriving on February 7th. WWE 2K17 has been available on the consoles since last fall, so we are getting it with a bit of a delay, but on the positive side it is coming over a month earlier than last year's entry.

For those of you interested in what the newest installment looks like, you'll find the most recent launch trailer down below. It doesn't feature much in terms of gameplay, but it does give a nice overview of what to expect. Have a look:

Titanfall 2's official screenshot

Only a month has passed since Angel City's Most Wanted, Titanfall 2's first free piece of DLC, and apparently the team is almost ready to deliver another update. The upcoming Live Fire DLC will add a brand new 6v6 Pilot-only mode that revolve around competitive, close quarters combat with no respawns. In order to win the round you will need to either eliminate the enemy team, or hold the neutral flag when the round timer ends. As such, I am expecting the game mode to primarily focus around teamwork and mobility skills, as staying together and staying alive is going to be of the utmost importance.

Besides the new game mode there will also be three new maps to toy around with. Two of these, Stacks and Meadow, will be designed specifically with the Live Fire game mode in mind, so expect to see a whole bunch of enclosed "death boxes" and plenty of routes to flank the enemy with. The third and final map is going to be a brand new Coliseum map called Columns, though the developers haven't released any information on it just yet... but I think its safe to say it will feature a whole bunch of columns!

Patches the Pirate from Hearthstone

If you've tried to play any homebrew deck in Hearthstone the past month or so, you're probably well aware of how powerful the pirate package is. Every single class that can run the strong early game pirates is running them, and everyone else is designing their decks in order to counter them. While this is usually how balance is achieved in card games, the problem with pirates is that they make each match feel incredibly similar, mostly because all three classes that run them are trying to get the same opening move.

Thankfully, during the most recent Q&A Blizzard's Designer Dean Ayala and Game Director Ben Brode have come out to say that they are keeping a close eye on the pirate package. When the Mean Streets of Gadgetzan first launched the pirate based classes represented a very high percentage of decks, but as counters got developed their popularity took a slight hit. However, they are still a bit more popular than the developers are comfortable with, and if they remain as dominant as they are currently the developers are going to step in and see how best to fix the problem.

Mass Effect: Andromeda Nomad rover schematics

If you prefer storytelling and exploration over straight up action, then you might want to check out the most recent Mass Effect: Andromeda trailer. Rather than focus on blowing up a whole variety of hostile aliens, the entire 3 minute video is dedicated to the various aspects of the Tempest scout ship and its one-of-a-kind, all-terrain rover Nomad.

So if you're interested in a bit of a different look at Mass Effect: Andromeda, and don't mind the complete lack of action, you'll find the most recent trailer right below. Have a gander:

Conan from the upcoming Conan Exiles survival game

Conan Exiles is an upcoming open-world survival game with a heavy focus on teamwork, base-building, and naturally, wrecking everything other people took tons of teamwork to actually build. If you would like to learn more about the gameplay side of things I would recommend you head over here to check out one of the most recent preview videos.

As for the system requirements, you'll be glad to hear that the minimum is most definitely on the reasonable side of things, and odds are the vast majority of you will be able to play Conan Exiles quite comfortably. But if you would like crank everything to ultra, that's going to require one hell of a machine, as you'll see in the full system requirements down below. Have a look:
