Mostly, it’s a “whole new chapter” As you may have gathered from mybig preview of Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown, I’m quite pumped for Ubisoft Montpellier’s upcoming actionplatformer. But I was also keen to find out whether they considered this a reboot for the series, or whether it had any connection to the Sands Of Time trilogy, and game director Mounir Radi was happy to oblige. For him and his team, it’s first and foremost “a whole new chapter” in the series, although you could call it a prequel, if you really wanted to....

Dragon Ball, One Piece and Demon Slayer were all big touchstones, the devs tell me When I visited Ubisoft Montpellier to playPrince Of Persia: The Lost Crownthe other week, the developers spoke extensively how about anime and comic books had been a big inspiration for them in creating the game’s visuals. As you’ll have seen from mybig preview, the game itself is a 2.5D platformer that mixes 3D character models and environments with sidescrolling action and dramatic camera movements as hero Sargon doles out his suite of special attacks....

Quite the change from Battletech The Lamplighter’s Leagueis an intriguing proposition, with theBattletechtech devs setting aside their big stompy mechs and stepping into the much sneakier shoes of 1930’s scoundrels as they wage shadow wars over supernatural artefacts. Its blend of real-time sleuthing and turn-based squabbling impressed Katharine when she snuck her hands on the opening mission last month, heralding it as a game of the year contender. Big words! Exciting words....

Playable until June 26th Saltsea Chroniclesis a seafaring adventure set on a flooded world in which you choose which crew members come along on away missions and the story branches heavily throughout. It’s also a bit likeStar Trek, with art and writing reminiscent of its developer’s previous game,Mutazione. If that appeals, there’s now a demo available from Steam in which you can visit an island full of cats. Here’s the reveal trailer from just last week....

Latest patch includes major PC performance help At launch,The Last of Us Part Ialmost looked likea lost causefor potentialSteam Deckplay. Even next to its wonky performance on desktops, it rantrulydreadfully on the Valve handheld, leading to the Steam custodians themselves slapping it with an Unsupported rating. Following yesterday’sv1.1.0 patch, however, it’s in much better technical shape, and has swapped that miserable grey Unsupported badge for a reassuringly green Verified one....

Vote now! Last time, you decided that by a mere two votes thatglowing wings are better than slipstreaming. Two votes! Honestly, I am surprised by the outcome but if that’s what our infallible method rules, so be it. This week, I ask you to choose between a thing which helps you create something big, and a thing which gives you consequences after destroying something small. What’s better: snap-to construction, or fighting a little beastie then meeting the giant adults?...

We did get the tiniest bit of gameplay, at least Capcom had a decent showing at their Showcase presentation last night, though it did also deliver the news that the mysteriousPragmatahas been delayed once again. The news came in the form of a short trailer that did show off some very brief snippets of gameplay, opening up with an honestly quite fun sequence showing the young girl we’ve seen in previous trailers making a cute drawing apologising for the indefinite delay....
