Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare screenshot of a space ship

If you were wondering how prominently space will feature in the upcoming Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, you don't need to look much further than the recently posted gameplay video from the San Diego Comic-Con.

The video showcases the first ~12 minutes of the campaign, and outside of the mandatory "slow-walking" story section you will barely spend any time with your feet planted firmly on the ground, choosing to instead bring the fight to the enemy on board your very own star-fighter. Have a look:

Overwatch's Ana in the Old Soldiers comic

While not as exciting as their cinematic shorts, Blizzard has been fairly consistently releasing Overwatch comics over the past few months, slowly but surely fleshing out the lore and its characters.

The one released today, however, is a bit special since it doesn't serve as an introduction to a single character, but rather as a brief look into the relationship between Soldier 76, Ana and Reaper, Overwatch's original members with a rather... shady history. You can read the full comic online by heading over here, or if you're so inclined you can get the PDF version by heading over here instead.

Montezuma from Civilization 6

While I wish they didn't exist at all, pre-order bonuses have only become more commonplace over the years and as such it shouldn't come as much of a surprise to hear that Civilization 6 will be having one as well.

The Aztec civilization and its leader, Montezuma will be arriving with the launch version of Civilization VI as an exclusive pre-order item, though everyone will be able to access the faction after 90 days, completely free of charge. It might not be the best system around, but at least they don't expect you to pay for cut content, so that's at least something. On the more positive side, however, the actual gameplay mechanics behind the Aztecs seem to be pretty interesting, as you'll see in the "First Look" trailer below:

Screenshot from Obsidian's Tyranny RPG

Tyranny is an upcoming RPG from Obsidian and Paradox that has a simple, but rather effective premise behind it: What happens with the world if the bad guys prevail in that final, cataclysmic showdown between good and evil?

If you're looking for a detailed answer, I'm afraid you won't find one until Tyranny finally releases at some point in 2016, but if its the gameplay you're curious about, Obsidian has you covered as they have recently done a ~40 minute stream showcasing just that. Here's the Youtube version of the footage, recorded by Gamestation:

Guild Wars 2 Heart of Thorns Season 3 screenshot

After an entire year of basically no content outside of raids and cash-shop items, it appears that ArenaNet has finally awoken from their slumber and are now once again working on the long-awaited Season 3 of the Living Story.

As you'll see in the trailer below, things have definitely not calmed down since the events in Heart of Thorns as there appears to be a new adversary on the rise, one that does not share a direct link with the great dragons. Do be warned before watching, however, as there are some Heart of Thorns spoilers in there, though given how basic the plot is I have little doubt that many of you could guess that the bad guy loses in the end. Here's the video:

Life is Strange's main character

Life is Strange is a five part episodic adventure made in the style of Telltale's modern games, though with a far greater focus on choices and actual, real consequences. While it does have the occasional weak moment and cringe-worthy dialogue, its one of the best narrative-driven games I've played in a very long time.

If you've never given it a try but feel like it might be the sort of thing you'd be interested in, you're in luck as Dontnod has just made Episode 1: Chrysalis completely free for all platforms. Here's the trailer to give you an idea of what you're getting into:

Humble 2K Bundle games

If you've managed to miss the Steam Summer Sale and are now hungry for some games on the cheap, the latest Humble 2K Bundle 2 might just be what you're looking for.

On the first tier you have the rather excellent The Darkness 2 and Spec Ops: The Line, as well as the less than excellent Duke Nukem Forever, while the higher tiers hold games such as Civilization V, Mafia 2, Battleborn and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. If your interest is piqued, you can check out the bundle by heading over here.
