'The Wolf Among Us 2' to launch in 2023, drops new trailer

Ten years after the original game came out, The Wolf Among Us 2 finally gets a tentative release date. The revived Telltale Games team announced that the sequel will arrive sometime in 2023, dropping a new trailer alongside the announcement.

The story is the precursor to Bill Willingham's Fables comics, following Fableton sheriff Bigby Wolf and this time, we see some well-known characters from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. This sequel takes place six months after the first season, promising plenty of drama as a new case gets the NYPD involved. It took the team this long to update the game as the company went through issues, including its dissolution in 2018 but then got a second chance from LCG Entertainment in 2019.

'Sons of the Forest' will get a 2021 release

The sequel to The Forest will be coming back in the coming year. Endnight Games just released a new trailer for Sons of the Forest, revealing its release window. It places mundane with creepy moments side by side, along with some story clues. If you prefer going into the game blind, you might not want to watch this teaser. At the end of the minute-and-a-half clip, a title card shows a 2021 release date. But what we don't know if this will be an early access launch similar to its predecessor or a traditional release.

The Forest spent most of four years in Steam Early Access before it became official on the PC and PlayStation 4 in 2018.

Ubisoft confirms new ‘Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’ game

A leak might have forced Ubisoft to unveil the latest game in the Assassin’s Creed franchise. We aren’t sure. What we do know is that Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is coming and it’s going to make its appearance at E3 2018. The leak happened a few hours before the official Assassin’s Creed Twitter confirmed the game’s existence. French video game site JeuxVideo-Live posted a photo of a novelty keychain promoting the unannounced (at that time) title. The keychain showed a helmet that resembled that of King Leonidas I. The site claimed the game will be set in ancient Greece.

Bethesda releases first trailer for new ‘Fallout 76’ game

We don’t know much about the upcoming Fallout game but we get to see a quick glimpse of it has Bethesda just released the first trailer for the new title. Calling it Fallout 76, the game seems to allude to players most likely being inhabitants of Vault 76, which has been mentioned in both Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. According to Fallout lore, this vault was meant to open 20 years after the nuclear war, which meant it allowed for a far less civilized setting than the ones you see in the previous games where the population had more time to reconstruct human civilization. This means we’re getting a different feel to the game. As the narrator says, “When the fighting is stopped, and the fallout has settled, you must rebuild.”

One other thing that will be different, but this is unconfirmed, that the game will be an online survival role-playing game in the same vein of DayZ or Rust. So, we might not get the typical single player RPG experience this time around. Whether this is true or not, we’ll get to hear more at E3 coming this month.
