First teased during a Nintendo Direct a few months ago, Stranger Things 3: The Game has received an official launch trailer to accompany the release of the game and the third season of the show. While the show is a Netflix exclusive, the game can be found on the Nintendo Switch, PC, Mac, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

This past weekend, Digital Extremes held their 4th annual TennoCon for Warframe and its fan. As usual, the Candian developer had plenty of news to share about their free-to-play action game, including what's next for the title.

Perhaps one of the most well-known and classic entries in the "co-op beat 'em up" genre is River City Ransom, which was originally released over 30 years ago on the Famicon/NES. That game was actually the third in the (now) long-running "River City" (or, "Kunio-Kun") series and all these years later, it's getting what feels like a sequel in the form of River City Girls. The twist? Rather than playing as "Alex" (Kunio) and "Ryan" (Riki) who set out across the city to rescue their girlfriends, you play as Kyoko and Misako (the girlfriends) and set out to rescue your boyfriends.

Studio MDHR's been hard at work since their tough-as-nails platform shooter, Cuphead, first released back in 2017.  Most recently, the game just finished being ported to the Nintendo Switch back in April of this year.  With that done, the developers' attention (or more of it, anyway) has turned towards putting out the game's first DLC pack.

Koji Igarashi himself has returned from atop his otherworldly spire to bless us, the pitiful gaming rabble, with a brand new "Igavania" title.  Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night has been hotly anticipated since its massive Kickstarter run back in 2015, and while companion title Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon satiated that hunger for a time, it was still considered an (extremely competent) appetizer.

Four years ago, the development team at Dead Mage held a successful Kickstarter campaign for their action-RPG, Children of Morta. There's been a lot of work done on the title since then and if you're interested in checking it out before its impending release this Summer, then you've got 72 hours to get a free preview.

We heard a couple months ago that the hit 2012 action-RPG Torchlight II would be making its way to modern consoles at some point, and last week we finally got a date. Gather your friends and play as the Embermage, Engineer, Berserker, or Outlander on September 3, 2019.

E3 2019 may be over and done, but there are still a few news bits left to cover! The next Animal Crossing game, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, was finally revealed during Nintendo's E3 Direct last week, and during their Treehouse Live following that reveal, they showed off a bit of how the game looks/plays. As part of that demonstration, they also announced that there would be a lot of ways to play the game with friends and family.

Most video games seem to view zombie hordes as obstacles to be avoided and/or destroyed, but Overcooked! 2 takes a different approach.  In developer Ghost Town Games' eyes, the Unbread are driven by hunger, so why not just feed them?

Here's an interesting thing to come out of E3: Konami is releasing a new Contra. CONTRA: ROGUE CORPS appears to be a sort of sequel to Contra III: Alien Wars, which you can now enjoy for the first time or all-over again in the Contra Anniversary Collection, as the official background for the game reads "two years after the Alien Wars had ended..." and the game's director is Nobuya Nakazato, who was also the director for Contra III and Hard Corps. Regardless of where it falls within the larger Contra canon, the game looks... pretty... interesting.

During their E3 Direct, Nintendo announced the Collection of Mana was coming to the States that very day (it's available to purchase digitally now). This bundle of the first three Mana games - Final Fantasy Adventure, Secret of Mana, and Trials of Mana [aka Seiken Densetsu 3] - was released in Japan back in 2017, and fans of those titles gazed from afar wondering if they'd ever bring it to other territories. Amazingly, they have, and you can play all of these games in English, French, or German (and for Trials, Spanish, too).

Last year, Nintendo revealed that Luigi would once again be busting (vacuuming?) some ghosts in Luigi's Mansion 3. At the time, though, all that was revealed was the game's existence and that it would be out sometime in 2019. During their E3 Nintendo Direct this week, they finally showed off more of the title and announced some exciting ways to play with friends: campaign co-op and "ScareScraper Mode."

The upcoming Nintendo Switch exclusive Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order will have additional character packs available after release as DLC. These packs were revealed as part of Nintendo’s E3 event but few details were provided, with the official webpage for the game stating that the game will feature “The Avengers, the Guardians of the Galaxy, the X-Men, and more!” However the post then goes on to outline that you can “Then expand your ultimate alliance with the paid Expansion Pass, which includes upcoming DLC content from popular franchises like the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and the Marvel Knights.”
