Darksiders 4 was not on my 2025 bingo card

Darksiders 4 was not on my 2025 bingo card

Yahooa day ago
Darksiders 4 is officially coming. During the THQ Nordic Digital Showcase on Friday, we got a glimpse at the next game in the hack and slash action-adventure franchise, alongside trailers for roughly a dozen other games that are in the works, including Reanimal and The Eternal Life of Goldman. It's been a while since we've seen a new mainline Darksiders title from developer Gunfire Games, and while the fourth entry follows 2019's prequel, Darksiders Genesis, the announcement says it will "continue where the original Darksiders game left off."
Darksiders 4 features all four Horsemen, and you'll get to choose which one to play as. It features "combat, traversal and puzzle solving in a lore rich post apocalyptic world." The teaser doesn't give us much information beyond that and there's no release date just yet, but we do know it'll be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
If you missed the showcase, you can catch up here on everything that was announced (like that new Spongebob game). And according to THQ Nordic, that's only half of what it has up its sleeve. At the end of the showcase, the publisher said a total of 28 games are currently in development, with 15 we still have yet to see.

PS5 Users Can Try Promising New Game for Free Without PS Plus

It won't be long before PS5 players can get their hands on a highly-anticipated action-adventure game for free. The PS Store has leaked free demo ahead of an official announcement by publisher Nacon, and it's another good one that won't be locked behind the pricey PS Plus Premium. Hell Is Us free PS5 demo leaked a month ahead of game launch Hell Is Us will launch on September 4, 2025 for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Developed by Rogue Factor, the single-player game already dropped a free demo on PC but looks like that's set to change as soon as today. Just as the official Hell Is Us account was teasing an incoming console demo, known PSN backend scraper found and leaked a PS Store entry for it. Hell Is Us has generated quite a bit of interest, so there's quite a bit of excitement in the replies to the tweets above. Hell Is Us will cost $60 at launch, and will be PS5 Pro enhanced. 'If war is the closest we get to hell on earth, it's because Earth harbours the worst of demons: humankind,' reads an official overview.

‘NUTMEG!' Brings ‘Balatro'-Style Retro Football Manager To PC In 2026

Most football supporters of a certain age — those in their mid-30s and older — know the thrills of two things: collecting stickers, and losing years to football management games. NUTMEG!, landing on PC in 2026, promises a mixture of the two and elements of Balatro, so they can once again kiss goodbye to their free time. Developer Sumo Sheffield and publisher Secret Mode have pitched NUTMEG! as a card-based football management game that draws on the heady days of English league football from the 1980s and 1990s, long before the Premier League was even a thing — when you could park your car on the touchline, have a cigarette or five during the game, and don a replica of some of the most questionable kits in history. Who doesn't want WANG on their bright yellow shirt? NUTMEG! puts players in charge of a Fourth Division team, and you need to guide them through two decades of competition as you play for promotion to the top level, while securing legendary players before anyone realizes just how good they are. Success is a balancing act: management duties unsurprisingly include transfers, training, ticket pricing, and PR, but the meat on NUTMEG!'s bones is with its deck-building mechanics. Cards are earned through training and deployed in fast-paced, strategic battles at key moments on the pitch. Along the way, NUTMEG! promises to keep things exciting in the longer term, unlocking new teams, tactics, and abilities along the way. All the while, both die-hard football fans and newcomers alike will get the chance to relive the game's most iconic eras through classic kits. Who doesn't want PLEASURE ISLAND on their fever dream shirt? NUTMEG! also proudly follows in the footsteps of classic International Superstar Soccer games with its evident lack of licensing. All teams that aren't straightforward place names (e.g. Newcastle, Oxford) are a little more creative, meaning that Arsenal become Artillery, Nottingham Forest are Sherwood FC, Tottenham Hotspur transform into North London, and Everton are Mersey Blues. If anything, it gives it even more retro charm. This sideways glance at the soccer management sim may not arrive until next year, but fear not — Kevin Toms Football Star Manager, a faithful remake of the very first Football Manager game from 1982, lands on Steam in mid-August, and you'd better believe that I'll be taking Hartlepool United all the way to the top of the English football pyramid.

Xbox Game Pass additions for August include Assassin's Creed Mirage

Microsoft has revealed the first batch of Xbox Game Pass additions for August, and there are several tasty options in store over the next couple of weeks. The first one lands today on Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass and Game Pass Standard in the form of Rain World , a difficult survival platform game. In case that's not your tempo, though, you won't have to wait long for other things to play. On August 7, Assassin's Creed Mirage will hit Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. I enjoyed this tighter, more focused take on the Assassin's Creed formula quite a bit , especially considering how bloated these games have become in recent years (that said, AC Shadows is one of my favorite games of this year so far). Mirage is worth checking out if you dig the series but haven't taken a leap of faith with that installment yet. Several titles are joining the Game Pass Standard tier in the first two weeks of August, including Citizen Sleeper 2 — an acclaimed RPG that debuted earlier this year — on Wednesday. Survival shooter Aliens: Fireteam Elite returns to Game Pass on August 12 as well, while roguelike kingdom builder 9 Kings arrives in game preview on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, but only for PC for the time being. Here's the full breakdown of the first wave of August Game Pass additions, including the tiers on which they'll be available: Rain World (Cloud, Console and PC) — Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, Game Pass Standard Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector (Xbox Series X/S) — Game Pass Standard, already on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders (Xbox Series X/S) — Game Pass Standard, already on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass MechWarrior 5: Clans (Xbox Series X/S) — Game Pass Standard, already on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap (Xbox Series X/S) — Game Pass Standard, already on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass Assassin's Creed Mirage (Cloud, Console and PC) — Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass EA Sports Madden NFL 26 : 10-hour early access trial (Cloud, Console and PC) — Game Pass Ultimate Aliens: Fireteam Elite (Cloud, Console and PC) — Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, Game Pass Standard 9 Kings (Game Preview) (PC) — Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass Along with the new additions, there are three titles leaving Game Pass on August 15. Those are Anthem (Console and PC) via EA Play, Farming Simulator 22 (Cloud, Console and PC) and Persona 3 Reload (Cloud, Console and PC). The beleaguered Anthem is shutting down for good this January in any case, and as it's an online-only game, there won't be any way to play it after that time — unless fans find a way to get community servers up and running.
