Dark Souls #1 is an official comic that will be releasing this April

Given the popularity of Dark Souls as a series and the short comic that preceded the release of Dark Souls 2 the only surprising thing here is how long it took for an official comic book to show up.

In a short announcement over at IGN George Mann, the writer behind the comic, announced that Dark Souls #1 will be releasing on April 6th, shortly before Dark Souls 3's launch. Here's one of the four cower images announced:

Snowfall is the second expansion to City: Skylines and brings with it a weather system and new modes of transportation

Back when Cities: Skylines first released it was exactly what the genre needed to stave off a decline in to irrelevance. A well done, semi-serious city management/builder sim without any of the bloat and nonsense that came with Sim City.

And now Cities: Skylines is poised to become even better as a new expansion titled Snowfall has been announced, bringing with it a new weather system and everything that entails, new modes of transportation and a lot more. Here's the announcement trailer:

And now, after a rather short beta that lasted slightly over a week Metal Gear Online is finally available for the PC crowd to experience. Here's the announcement message from the MGO developers:

Humble Firaxis bundle is live and filled with great games

As a big fan of strategy games Firaxis has been one of rare few companies to consistently feed my "addiction" with quality releases that had never lost that "I need to play one more turn..." feeling despite hundreds of hours I sunk in to them.

So I'm happy to tell you that during the currently running Humble Firaxis Bundle you can grab their very best, including various Civilization games and Xcom itself, at a rather low $8.69.

My detailed and in-depth review of Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak

Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak is a prequel to the excellent Homeworld 1 which released back in 1999 and redefined the RTS genre with a focus on large scale conflicts, compelling storytelling and persistence between missions.

Deserts of Kharak set out to continue that legacy and despite the fact that the cool darkness of space has been replaced with the ever-encroaching desert it does an excellent job of embodying everything Homeworld stood for.

Heroes of the Storm is Blizzard's answer to the ever rising popularity of Dota 2 & League of Legends and while it aims at a much more casual audience its prize pool is hardcore indeed.

Darkest Dungeon is arriving on Steam, GOG & Humble Store on January 19th

Darkest Dungeon's Early Access campaign was a bit of a roller-coaster of emotions. When it first released it was a crowd favorite earning obscene amounts of praise for everything from gameplay to art style but during the mid point in development a couple of patches made the game a bit more tedious than the players appreciated which turned in to wide spread criticism only to have that criticism turn back in to praise a patch later.

And now after successfully enduring the Early Access trials Darkest Dungeon is set to release today, January 19th. Along with the announcement came a new spiffy release trailer, take a look:
