As a big fan of roguelikes, action RPGs and Souls inspired combat I've been keeping tabs on Necropolis and looking forward to its March release date with glee.
But unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, Necropolis has been delayed until the summer in order to polish it up and prepare it for a simultaneous console release. Here's the most interesting part of the announcement message Harebrained Schemes posted earlier today:

The good news is that the Disgaea: Digital Deluxe Dood Edition is now available on Steam along with an upgraded UI, improved graphics, full keyboard/mouse and controller support as well as all of the content the special edition came with.
The bad news is that according to some user reviews and Steam comments Disgaea is currently "completely broken" for some configurations due to horrific FPS drops. Here's the trailer and a bit more information about the whole problem:

Action orientated gameplay set to a melancholic ill-fitting tune has been the staple of Dark Souls trailers the past few years and it seems not even Dark Souls 3 is able to avoid it.
The latest Dark Souls 3 trailer showcases the "true colors of darkness" which is apparently a code word for new bosses, enemies, locations and armor sets you will be able to toy around with. Here's the trailer:
