Pure Pool offers everything you could want from a billiards simulation and more, and we can’t wait to welcome Nintendo Switch players onto the baize later this year.”
Capcom, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced Monster Hunter Rise™ and Monster Hunter Stories™ 2: Wings of Ruin, two all-new Monster Hunter™ experiences currently in development for the Nintendo Switch™ console. The award-winning and top-selling Monster Hunter series continues to soar to new heights with the worldwide releases of Monster Hunter Rise on March 26, 2021 and Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin in Summer 2021.
Monster Hunter Rise evolves the Monster Hunter series by providing hunters with an inventive set of new tools to track down and defeat threatening monsters. Players can tackle these challenges solo, or with up to three other hunters in local or cooperative online play. Offering a story-based RPG experience, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin will immerse players into the adventures of a new Monster Rider, as they journey to a variety of scenic locations, embark on epic quests and befriend magnificent monsters.
Monster Hunter Rise is an action RPG that will transport players to the colorful Kamura Village, an all-new serene mountain locale that attracts visitors with its unique culture and innovative hunting technologies. After hunters equip their armor and select from one of the various weapon types, all-new hunting grounds await, including the ancient Shrine Ruins and more. Featuring maps with no loading times, the continuous gameplay ensures that players will remain on their quests as soon as the hunt begins without transitions between areas.
The core gameplay experience in Monster Hunter Rise will feel familiar to previous Monster Hunter entries, but it also introduces several new and exciting mechanics for hunters to master. For the first time ever, wire-based grappling actions can be performed by using a “Wirebug” while standing or in mid-air, adding an all-new level of aerial maneuverability to hunting strategies and attacks. As players defeat monsters and progress through the game, items from fallen foes can be used to craft unique weapons and armor that will increase their chances of future success and survival.
Monster Hunter Rise will introduce Magnamalo, a menacing new flagship monster that will present a formidable challenge to hunters of all skill levels. Players can expect to confront additional new monsters like the shape-shifting Aknosom, the amphibious Tetranadon, as well as numerous fan-favorite and returning species from previous Monster Hunter games. In addition to the plethora of solo and multiplayer quests, the story mode will task aspiring hunters with discovering the secrets behind the puzzling “Rampage” events that threaten Kamura Village.
Monster Hunter Rise will also debut new hunting partners called Palamutes, personalized and rideable “Canyne” companions that will provide players with a new set of attack options, while “Felyne” Palicoes will return as support characters for actions like healing. On solo hunts, players can select both a Palamute and Palico to assist them, while multiplayer hunters can choose either one.
In addition to the physical and digital standard editions of Monster Hunter Rise available for pre-order for MSRP $59.99, a special Deluxe Edition and Collector’s Edition are also being offered. The Deluxe Edition for MSRP $69.99 will include the standard edition of the game (physical or digital), as well as a digital DLC pack voucher that can be redeemed for bonus in-game content such as a “Kamurai” full layered armor set, exclusive gestures, cosmetic items and more. The limited Collector’s Edition (physical only) for MSRP $99.99 will contain everything from the Deluxe Edition, in addition to physical items including a monster icon sticker pack, Kamura Mark enamel pin and an amiibo figure of Magnamalo, the flagship monster featured in the game. Pre-order options and pricing details for Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin will be announced at a later date.
Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin offers both RPG and Monster Hunter fans a unique new experience with a rich storyline featuring charming characters, challenging quests and friendly encounters with familiar monsters from the Monster Hunter series. Assuming the role of a young Monster Rider who can use a Kinship Stone to form strong bonds with monsters, players can gain experience and improve their skills to form deeper connections with these wonderful creatures. When ready, players can embark on memorable adventures filled with dramatic events and heartwarming friendships as the epic tale unfolds. Further details on Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin will be shared in the future.
Focus Home Interactive and Rogue Factor’s tactical RPG Necromunda: Underhive Wars, set in Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40,000 universe, released last week on PC, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One. But the dangerous world and factions of Necromunda can be unforgiving, so the team is back with a new trailer featuring tips and tricks to make your conquest of the Underhive all the more glorious.
You’ll learn to master Necromunda: Underhive Wars’ signature verticality by using the gridless movement system to its fullest for nearly endless tactical positioning possibilities. Your gang is your own, and every element can be customized, including weapons, skills, looks and more. Make sure you build your crew carefully if you want to survive.
With three distinct game modes, Necromunda: Underhive Wars features tons of hours of gameplay for you to sink your teeth into. Learn the ropes in Campaign mode before building your own gang and fighting the rest of the Underhive in Operations mode — or taking the battle to multiplayer in Skirmishes.
Since launch, the team has been responding to feedback from the community and polishing technical issues experienced by players, with even more improvements on the way.

Ten years after the launch of their critically-acclaimed game Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Frictional Games presents a new trailer announcing the release date for the much-anticipated horror sequel, Amnesia: Rebirth, scheduled to arrive on October 20 on PC and PlayStation 4. Pre-orders on Steam, GOG.com, Epic Games Store, and PlayStation Store are now open.
In the new trailer released today, we journey deeper into the twisted story behind Amnesia: Rebirth. The protagonist, Tasi Trianon, finds herself in the desolate landscape of the Algerian desert, battling against her fears and pain as she seeks out answers. She must do everything and anything to survive. She is Tasi.
Amnesia: Rebirth will take players through a wide variety of uncanny environments, from scorched deserts and dark caves to forgotten ruins and alien landscapes. They must learn how to carefully explore the surroundings to find the clues they need while managing essential resources to keep Tasi alive and dig up the truth.
“Amnesia is not just another haunted house spook-fest, but an emotionally harrowing journey”, explains Thomas Grip, creative director at Frictional Games. “We aim to go beyond simple jump-scares and to affect players on a deeper level. While Rebirth will contain the terrifying encounters and sights you expect from an Amnesia game, it has a lot more focus on narrative than previous entries in the series. We want the player to form a strong bond with Tasi and intimately share her tribulations. This will not be your run-of-the-mill horror experience.”
Amnesia: Rebirth launches October 20th, 2020 and is now available for pre-orders in multiple stores.
Crytek has released a new 8K trailer which demonstrates the wide range of visual upgrades and optimizations featured in Crysis Remastered, showing new footage in comparison to 2007’s original Crysis.
Crysis Remastered takes advantage of current-generation hardware and technology advances in CRYENGINE to bring a range of visual features to Crysis, including ray tracing, global illumination (SVOGI), rippling caustics, up to 8K textures (including an 8K Nanosuit), enhanced particle and explosion effects, and more. And on PC, players can experience the game in the ‘Can It Run Crysis?’ mode, an ultra-high graphics setting that will push even the most powerful hardware to its limits!
This remaster of the acclaimed first-person shooter was developed and optimized in partnership with Saber Interactive. It is coming to PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 on September 18 and is already available for Nintendo Switch for 29.99 USD/EUR.
CI Games shared an in-engine teaser for Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, setting the stage for one of the most important gameplay changes coming in the upcoming sequel: Extreme long-range sniping. Long-range shooting is something the Sniper Ghost Warrior community has asked for and the new video teases a shot taken 1,506 meters away. Contracts 2’s long-range shooting will be supported by more accurate weapons, heightened realism, and enhanced visuals when it launches this winter.
“The Sniper community really enjoyed the changes we made with Contracts and the sniper’s paradise sandboxes but, based on their feedback, we designed the latest game with very long-range shots in mind,” said CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski. “We hope to continue building on the best sniping gameplay around and make significant steps forward in bringing modern, realistic sniping experience to consoles and PC. Our team is really excited to introduce the extreme range campaign in Contracts 2.”
The first Contracts was well-received and re-established the Sniper Ghost Warrior formula with the best-in-class shooting set within open-world sandboxes. Contracts 2 takes these sniper’s paradises to the next level with challenging long-range maps set in the game’s new modern setting. In addition to the core contracts, these campaigns are hand-crafted to provide engaging and robust gameplay over extreme distances. These maps will challenge even the most skilled snipers as players complete complex challenges undetected from over a kilometer away.
Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 features a more grounded and relevant experience set in modern day 2021 Middle East. As Reaper, a sniper on a mission, players can take advantage of new weapons and gear to take down more intelligent enemies across new, expansive maps.
Add Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 to your wishlist and stay tuned for more game details that will be revealed in the coming months.
