Wait, it's coming when? Set to be released on February 14, DONT NOD is releasing this otherworldly game on Valentine’s Day–quite a gift for yourself if you have nothing to do on that day!

Set in New Eden, 1695, players get to live through the lives of Banishers named Red and Antea, tasked to unravel mysteries in their mission to find the source of evil. For a studio known for their titles, such as Life is Strange and Vampyr, they promised that the game will be filled with an intimate narrative action RPG that takes the player on an exhilarating journey between life and death. If you want to hop into it as soon as it is released, the game is now available for pre-order.

Are you ready for some salty, unfiltered joy? Initially, the game drew inspiration from the acute naval battles of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, which is why it was perceived to be a spin-off from Edward Kenway’s timeline. However, the team decided to hold it as an independent project and gave new direction to its gameplay.

Set to be in the Indian Ocean, the game holds sea and land action, allowing players to roam freely around to gather materials to make their majestic yet terrifying ship. If you seek an updated thrill of pirate battles with you and your friends, you can reside in this title provided by Ubisoft.

Alone in the Dark

It’s 2024, and you want to try something new, something different from your average FPS and MOBA games. Why not give this title a go?

It was revived from its 1992 ashes into an exciting 2024 psychological horror. This game is a reimagination guaranteed to keep you on your toes. Players can play through either Edward Carnby's or Emily Hartwood’s perspectives as they explore the world, fight monsters, and solve eerie puzzles while keeping close tabs on their surroundings. It won't be easy to unearth the truth of Derceto Manor, but someone has to do it. Are you sure you are up for it?
