Hitman 3 is a great game, and I don’t like playing it. As contradictory as that seems, the Hitman games play to a very specific niche. Unfortunately, try as I might, I don’t think I’m in that niche. The reboot games have been all about approaching the well-designed levels like a sandbox, playing it how

Echo Games found a niche audience with their rhythm-roguelike hybrid Rhythm Fighter when it was released on Steam last year. Soon, you’re finally able to pummel enemies to the beat while on the go when it makes its debut on the Nintendo Switch.

One More Level and All in! Games have recently shared a brand new teaser trailer from their upcoming first-person action title, Ghostrunner, revealing that more details will be shared about the game next month.

First, there was the Void. Then, there was a Headache. The rest is pop-punk guitar solos and art design that resembles— I imagine— what Tommy Pickles (from Rugrats) would see if he dropped, like, 10 tabs of acid in the middle of the pilot episode. Post Void, the new experimental FPS from developer YCJY, is
