Onimusha: Way of the Sword demo is pretty lit. There is a big difference in difficulty between the standard enemies and the included boss so it took me 3 or 4 goes to take the latter down... Gonna have to make time to play the whole series before September now.
@ItsToriGalvin Yep. It's how I replayed the original PS2 games. Plus the two decent PSP versions. Then PS4/5 for God of War 3 Remastered and the Dad of War duology.
Quite a few games with no confirmed release dates but that was a pretty strong State of Play. TBH with my backlog and wishlist I could do with some time before anything more comes out ;P
@SomethingClassc Like others have said, FFVI for setting and vibes, Octopath for character setups. With a hint of Radiant Historia in the later game. Pretty lofty company but well deserved :)
Here's the breakdown of the games that were shown during the @HorrorGameAward showcase. Even mentioned whether there's a demo for it. Have fun wishlisting! 💜
Just played through the demo for Silver Pines and this is something truly special. Silent Hill and Alan Wake meets Twin Peaks with a beautiful artstyle. Cannot wait for the full release.
"Here for the show? I wouldn't want to miss this for the world."
Play the Silver Pines demo now on Steam! The search for Eddie Velvet has begun.
Silver Pines launches on PC and consoles on October 8th 2026.
Play the demo and wishlist Silver Pines now:
