May 6, 2019 – A Plague Tale: Innocence, the poetic and harrowing dark adventure from Asobo Studio and Focus Home Interactive, is about to arrive onMay 14 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Your enemies are everywhere – inside stately homes and lordly cathedrals, down to the very dregs of the world in cellars and basements. Showcased today in our new “Monsters” trailer, while the deadly swarms of rats consume all they come across, harrying Amicia and Hugo’s long journey, far more familiar foes pick their moment to strike with more care. The English army, local brigands and, worst of all, The Inquisition and their mysterious master, Vitalis. All pursue the siblings with a deadly enthusiasm, spurred on by unknown forces.
Lord Nicholas, the commander of the Inquisition’s forces, is the helmeted face of fear for the local populace under the boot heel of his army, and for Amicia and Hugo as they flee. He is brutal and uncompromising, willing to do whatever it takes to complete his mission to capture and return the siblings to his master. Strong, fast, with zealots at his every beck and call, he will be a formidable and merciless foe.

May 3, 2019 – Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and IO Interactive today released the HITMAN 2 Elusive Target mission, The Undying Returns, starring international actor Sean Bean, who returns as former MI5 agent turned freelance assassin, Mark Faba. Starting today, players have until June 3 to take out Mark Faba in this high-stakes contract that can only be tried once. This is also a new chance for those who have attempted to eliminate Mark Faba in the past.
The Undying Returns mission is free for all players who have access to the Miami location, including those who picked up the HITMAN 2 Miami Pack that became available as a standalone purchase earlier this week for $14.99, providing full access to the Miami location, as well as all associated missions, modes and content. Launching the mission will also unlock Lil’ Flashy – a flash grenade disguised as a robot into your inventory.
May 2, 2019 – Paradox Interactive has today revealed the first full-blood Vampire clan in Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2: Brujah! The Brujah are rebels and firestarters who favor brute strength and celebrate the raw power of their bloodline.
Check out this video to learn more about the Brujah, their background, and get a sneak peek at one of their abilities:
Known as “The Rabble” to other Vampires, the Brujah have never been a large part of Seattle’s Kindred community. Many of the city’s Brujah are leftovers from failed Anarch movements and claim to be unaffiliated with Seattle’s political factions. Brujah clan members gather at a “Bash”, best described as a fight club for the undead, where they assert their physical superiority over other clans.
You can head over to the Paradox Interactive Twitch starting right now (12 p.m. Eastern) where the Bloodlines 2 team is giving a breakdown of the Brujah clan: https://www.twitch.tv/paradoxinteractive.
The Brujahs’ powers are as overwhelming as their convictions. Players who join the Rabble can unlock two ancient disciplines that enhance their physical abilities: Potence and Celerity. Potence is the Brujah’s signature discipline and imbues their undead bodies with the pinnacle of raw Kindred strength – nobody underestimates the strength of a Brujah twice. While Potence enhances strength, Celerity enhances a Brujah’s speed, allowing them to strike faster, dodge quicker, and escape more nimbly than any mortal creature.
Learn more details about the Brujah’s disciplines and their powers below:
Potence
Fist of Caine – Deliver a devastating punch that turns walls into rubble and throws enemies through the air. Upgrades to Fist of Cain enhance the devastating effects even further.
Earthshock – Smash the ground with titanic force, creating a shockwave around the player that damages and knocks down anyone who dares to stray too close. Upgrading Earthshock causes the Brujah’s onslaught to send out fissures, damaging anyone caught in the cataclysm.
Celerity
Unseen Storm – Dash in any direction with such speed that you momentarily disappear from view, allowing you to land attacks, dodge around enemies, or get away before the dust has settled. Upgrades further enhance the effects of Unseen Storm.
Accelerate – Move so fast that everything else in the world appears to slow down to a standstill. Assailants seem frozen in their attacks, cars crawl forward, bullets zip by lazily, and the vampire can perform stunts that, with an 80’s synth track in the background, would make for an awesome movie scene. Upgrades further enhance the effects of Accelerate.
Of note, the use of Potence or Celerity in front of any mortal is a Masquerade Violation.
Players who join the Brujah clan can use these disciplines in addition to the individual powers from their Thinblood past.

Launching on Steam on May 30th, Conan Unconquered is a real-time survival strategy game and the first ever strategy game set in the brutal and savage world of Conan the Barbarian.
