The Overwatch 2 Halloween event is called Junkenstein's Revenge: Wrath of the Bride, and it's the first seasonal event to take place in Overwatch 2. The original Junkenstein's Revenge was a stand-out in Overwatch's seasonal schedule since its debut in 2017, so it's no surprise that it's making a comeback for Blizzard's FPS game's sequel.

So far, we don't have too much to go on for the first Overwatch 2 Halloween event, but we do know the confirmed dates and some details about skins, maps, and modes. Most of this comes from a blog post and a brief glimpse of Kiriko twirling a broomstick in the Overwatch 2 season one trailer, but here's everything we can expect from the highly anticipated limited-time event.

Summer Time Rendering Another Horizon will have 6 routes

MAGES. has published the first official trailer for Summer Time Rendering: Another Horizon. It revealed that the visual novel adaption of the 2017 manga series will have six possible routes, each of which will feature a different key character.

The announcement also comes with the revelation of a brand-new character that will appear in this game adaptation. The green-clothed girl is Kaori Koyuba, a famous idol who spent her childhood in Hitogashima. Yui Ogura will be the voice actress for this new character.

Kaori moved to Tokyo to follow her parents on their jobs, but her return to the island will inevitably alter the scenario initially based on the anime version. She will become the key character in one of the visual novel's six routes.

Here is the full list of key characters with their own routes in Another Horizon, as ordered by the above image:

  1. Mio Kofune
  2. Hizuru Minakata
  3. Kaori Koyuba
  4. Tokiko Hishigata
  5. Ushio Kofune
  6. Tetsu Totsumura

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nFKTICaU8Y

MAGES. has also updated Another Horizon's website with more gameplay details. The game will include many visuals from the anime version to make the player feel like they are watching the Summer Time Rendering anime show.

The time leap-based visual novel will also feature unique types of branches, such as Action Branch and Tips Branch. The latter will involve response choices that will not be available unless the player had performed specific prerequisites beforehand.

Summer Time Rendering: Another Horizon will be available for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch on January 26, 2023.

Resident Evil 4 Remake

If the latest from Silent Hill isn't enough, Capcom is teasing the latest from Resident Evil for the next day. The publisher announced that a Resident Evil showcase stream will take place on October 20, 2022, at 3:00 PM Pacific Time (or October 21, 2022, at 7:00 AM Japan Time). The event will showcase the latest from the franchise, including a look at the Resident Evil 4 Remake.

Here's the announcement Tweet, which features a short teaser clip.

https://twitter.com/RE_Games/status/1582129468134473728

The Resident Evil showcase event has at least two announced titles on the docket: Resident Evil Village Gold Edition and the Resident Evil 4 Remake.

The Gold Edition is a "complete" single-edition release of Resident Evil Village. It includes the base game; the Winters' Expansion content, which adds a third-person mode to the base game; the Shadows of Rose story campaign; and The Mercenaries: Additional Orders mode. There's also the Trauma Pack DLC and access to Resident Evil Re:Verse, a six-player competitive multiplayer mode.

The Resident Evil 4 Remake (formally titled Resident Evil Re:4) was first announced in June 2022 and is scheduled for release in March 2023. It'll reimagine the story of the GameCube-era classic, and feature redesigns for much of the cast. It'll appear on Xbox Series X and PC, and on PS5 it'll have support for PSVR 2.

As for what else Capcom has planned, the details are not yet clear. An entirely new game could be announced for further into the future, or a continuation of the company's trend of remakes. Further multimedia projects could be in the works, though the Resident Evil Netflix series was canceled.

Capcom's next Resident Evil showcase will take place on October 20, 2022, at 3:00 PM Pacific Time. It'll stream via Twitch and YouTube.

Potionomics

Potion sellers, prepare your strongest potions. Customers will want them whether they can handle them or not. So it goes with Potionomics, a new management sim developed by Voracious Games, which releases today on PC via Steam.

Check out the game's launch trailer below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSjLEIrBD0o

Potionomics puts players in control of Sylvia, a plucky entrepreneur who inherits her late uncle's struggling potion shop. Saddled with a mountain of debt and cutthroat competition, she must out-brew and out-bargain her rivals to become the premiere potion purveyor in the city of Rafta.

The game is a narrative-driven RPG that blends business management and deck-building elements. Players will manage the shop and balance its expenditures, brew potions and find the most effective recipes, and negotiate with customers. Potionomics negotiations take place using a card-based system, where players balance Sylvia's stress levels with the demands of the conversation. Players can also befriend the locals, furthering their relationships and forming intimate bonds. Making connections also enhances Sylvia's negotiation game, unlocking useful bargaining cards to make dealing with picky customers easier.

Potionomics was first announced in 2020, but began making appearances at shows like PAX East this year. Voracious also released a limited-time playable demo during the Steam Next Fest earlier in October.

Potionomics is available on PC via Steam for $24.99. A Deluxe Edition release includes a digital artbook and soundtrack for $39.99. Both editions have a launch discount of 10% and 15%, respectively, ending on October 24, 2022.

     The Dakar Rally is one of the coolest motorsport events in the world, an epic race across the vast expanses of Saudi Arabia that tests not only pure speed but also navigation skills and endurance. Cars, trucks, quads, bikes and buggies blast along tracks, leap over dunes and slide around bends in a bid to get the best time in stages that span hundreds of kilometres. It's also a testament to just how crazy and arrogant humans really are - we see an endless desert and think to ourselves, "let's drive some stuff over it!" Dakar Desert Rally from Sabre Interactive is the latest attempt to capture the magic and epicness of the event and I'm happy to be able to tell you that it's quite a step up from the 2018 game. This can be a rewarding game for anybody willing to put in the time, but some rough edges keep it from being truly great.

     Lego Bricktales is possibly the most relaxing and borderline therapeutic game I've played in some time. Building things in your own style at your own pace is delightfully fun, though the occasional technical issue and lack of a faster movement option do weigh the experience down. Lego Bricktales Developer: ClockStone Price: $30 Platform: PS4, PS5 […]
