This game looks cool, there is no other way to say it. In a video game field dominated by futuristic games and World War 2 shooters, the neglected setting of the Wild West is getting a bit of love courtesy of Rockstar, and a new trailer has been released to get you excited for the upcoming launch.

The game seems to have all the staples of a Rockstar game: gritty realistic encounters, lots of violence, and a heavy emphasis on a believable and fully realized world. An new multiplayer aspect should add depth, and the open nature of the game itself could keep this game in your console for months to come.

RetroRealms Announcement Trailer

Remember when Boss Team Games announced it was working on two games based on the 1978 slasher classic Halloween yesterday? Well, the studio followed up on that news today by revealing one of those games is a 16-bit action platformer, and it's coming out in October.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster is more like Dead Space’s remake than Resident Evil 4’s
Frank talks to Jessica in Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster.

Don't let Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster's name fool you; this is essentially a full-on remake of Capcom's classic zombie game. While the narrative and core gameplay loop are the same, Dead Rising has seen a complete visual overhaul, as well as a few gameplay tweaks to make it more enjoyable to play. It's the same great game you remember, but it now just feels like something that could be released in 2024 rather than 2006. After going hands-on with Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, it's clear that this game is less like the remake treatment Capcom gave Resident Evil 4 last year and more like the one EA gave Dead Space. It's an extremely faithful modern upgrade for a horror classic that still holds up today.

I tried Dead by Daylight’s scary new spinoff and I’m already dying to dive back in
A killer stands tall in The Casting of Frank Stone.

Despite being a horror juggernaut for eight years, the world of Dead by Daylight is fairly mysterious. There's only so much we learn about the serial killer universe through its asymmetrical multiplayer matches. There's an evil "Entity." It requires blood sacrifices. Violence ensues.

Behaviour Interactive is finally looking to expand that story this September. Developed by Until Dawn studio Supermassive Games, The Casting of Frank Stone is an interactive horror movie in the same vein as The Quarry. It's a classic slasher story about a sick killer terrorizing a town full of teens, with each player's decisions affecting who lives and dies. It's a tried-and-true formula for Supermassive, but how well does that adapt to a completely different studio's established horror universe? Based on the prologue demo I played, it's a natural (and bloody) fit.
The killer in me
The Casting of Frank Stone takes place in the small town of Cedar Hills, at small Oregon burg with a dark secret. A steel mill at the heart of town is home to Frank Stone, a vicious killer decked out in chains and a welder's mask. The main story follows a group of teens trying to uncover the dark -- and perhaps supernatural -- mystery of Frank.
