(Which I’m sure will all go well.)
Directive 8020
Directive 8020 is the latest game from the makers of Until Dawn and The Quarry.
And what sounds like some sort of alien up to no good.
Not a journey I’d like to go on to say the least.
I’m sure nothing will go wrong atall.
Five Nights at Freddy’s Secret of the Mimic will be released on 13th June 2025 for PS5.
It looks amazing, but also quite creepy.
The Midnight Walk will be released on 8th May for PC, PS5 and PS VR2.
Darwin’s Paradox!
Become an octopus in Darwin’s Paradox and escape the food processing facility you’ve found yourself in.
Oh - and there’s aliens.
Darwin’s Paradox is coming to the PS5 later on in 2025.
Warriors: Abyss
Warriors: Abyss is the latest game from Koei Tecmo Games.
It’s a roguelike take on the Warriors franchise and sees you journeying into hell as one does.

Enemies aplenty will meet your blade in the next installment to this franchise.
(And your gauntlet talks.)
Onimusha: Way of the Sword will be released on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
(Look, I wasn’t allowed to play games with guns in growing up.
Was allowed to watch Apocalypse Now though.)
Definately looks like there’s a lot of combat and stealth awaiting everyone though!

It will also be released on PC.
With mentions of the Holy Grail,Tides of Annihilation takes inspiration from Arthurian legends.
