The Elder Scrolls Online: War in Cyrodiil Trailer

Looking forward to jumping into the Elder Scrolls universe with friends, then check out the latest action packed trailer for the game. Offering glimpses of large scale battles and sieges, magical powers and a guy leaping with some pretty Daedric looking wings, the trailer is an exciting look into the game.

Finishing the trailer of is also the announcement for the release date of the game, 4/4/2014. Only a few more months to go then.
 

Alien: Isolation Screenshots

A few days ago artwork appeared for what may be the next Alien game, supposedly named Alien: Isolation. Another leak over on twitter has now brought us screenshots from within the game itself, and they are looking pretty nice.

Using the singular term Alien along with the word isolation already indicated that this next installment featuring the acid blooded aliens will be moving down a horror route, and this latest leak seems to reinforce that. The screenshots show an eery interior, perhaps that of the station shown in the previous artwork. The shot of a couple of space suits is in particular creepy. Besides hinting at the tone of the game, the shots are visually impressive and hopefully accurate to what the actual game will be like. I doubt Sega would want a repeat of Colonial Marines after the earlier demos did not represent the final product, and the cold reception that lead to.

With all the leaks going on, one can hope its not to much longer before an official announcement.

New The Witcher 3 in-game footage

CD Projekt RED, creator of the story-driven fantasy RPG, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, has just released new in-game video footage from the third installment of The Witcher series. CD Projekt RED released this statement:
Portraying the vast and beautiful open world that plays host to the game’s riveting story, The Witcher 3 VGX Gameplay Trailer offers an extended look at the adventure to come.
“The Witcher 3 is constantly growing and we’re very excited each time we show something new to gamers. The VGX Gameplay Trailer shows some really great stuff that you’ll find in the game and we’re very eager to hear what people think about it, so please leave a comment after you watch it - we’re always listening to what you have to say,” said Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, Game Director, CD Projekt RED.
CDP RED studio is also excited to provide a glimpse into some of the new music direction for this 3rd and final installment in the Witcher series with the VGX Gameplay Trailer. Portions of the music in the game will focus on the raw emotion of traditional slavic instruments and songs to convey the brutality and violence of the world. To achieve this goal the audio team has been recording using traditional and historic instruments with amazing bands like "Percival", who are masters in this area, to achieve a truly authentic and powerful sound

Alien: Isolation artwork leak

A new game featuring the chest busting horrors may be reveled in the not to distant future and the following leaked artwork may give possible clues as to what the game may have in stall for people. 


Spotted by a user over on NeoGAF, the leaked images supposedly show the daughter of the franchises protagonist Ripley with the reflection of an Alien on the visor, whilst the second one pictures a rather large and creepy looking station, lit from the distance by the signature green on the films. Sega confirmed in Creative Assembly was working on an Aliens game back in 2011, but nothing concrete has been seen on the game as of yet.

With the word Isolation is the title, one can hope that the game will be moving away from the action route of the not well received previous games, Aliens Vs Predator and Aliens: Colonial Marines, into a more horror focused game. Hopefully it will not be to long before with start getting non leaked images and concrete information. Until then cast your eyes over some impressively chilling artwork.
