As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must say this week has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride for me! From the tantalizing teaser of Tarsier’s new horror game, Reanimal, that seems to channel the eerie charm of Little Nightmares, to the announcement of Borderlands 4, which I hope will erase the bitter taste left by the mediocre movie adaptation, there’s been no shortage of excitement.
Today’s edition of Game Rant‘s Weekly Overview delves into some standout stories from the previous week: The Gamescom Opening Night Live event unveiled a slew of announcements and updates across the gaming landscape, featuring trailers for titles like Reanimal, Borderlands 4, and Batman: Arkham Shadow. Here’s a summary of the latest happenings in the video game industry.
Reanimal Revealed as New Tarsier Horror-Platformer
The upcoming horror game by Tarsier Studios, titled “Reanimal“, was hinted at before Gamescom and while it appears to be a new series, it shares an uncanny similarity with “Little Nightmares“. However, its unique concentration on terrifying animal creatures might make it stand out.
Monster Hunter Wilds Making a Great Change to Armor Sets
As a dedicated gamer, I’m thrilled about the updates in Monster Hunter Wilds! What really excites me is the new feature that allows players to don traditional masculine or feminine armor sets irrespective of how we customize our characters at the start. This is a game-changer for the franchise, and it’s wonderful to see such inclusivity in gaming!
Borderlands 4 Announced with Cinematic Trailer
As a die-hard Borderlands fan, I must admit that the movie version left me disappointed, joining the ranks of video game adaptations that missed their mark in recent times. But, there’s a silver lining: Gearbox’s announcement of Borderlands 4 at Gamescom has given me renewed hope for the franchise to shake off that less-than-stellar impression.
Indiana Jones Release Date and Spring 2025 PS5 Window Revealed
Initially planned for release in 2024, Bethesda’s Indiana Jones game was uncertain due to the limited number of months remaining in the year. However, it has now been announced that “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” will be coming out in December, with a PS5 version scheduled for Spring 2025.
Marvel Rivals Announces Two New Characters and Release Date
The highly anticipated game called Marvel Rivals made a grand appearance at Gamescom, officially unveiling Captain America and Winter Soldier as its launch characters. Additionally, it was disclosed that Marvel Rivals, similar to Indiana Jones, is scheduled to debut towards the end of this year.
