Continuing their licensing spree Seven Seas Entertainment has announced that they have acquired the rights to release the spin-off manga by Go Nagai and Rui Takatō, Devilman G. The company describes this series as being “a modern retelling of the horror manga epic that pulls elements from the franchise’s rich forty year history.”

When demons begin taking over the bodies of humans, only the strongest survive. When a practicing young witch named Miki Makimura asks her friend Akira Fudo for help with a ritual, the spell is interrupted and Akira is left on the brink of death. His body is overtaken by a powerful being named Amon. Now torn between his humanity and the demon within him, Akira uses his abilities to fight in the war between demons and humans for the future of the world itself!

The titles include The Secret Garden, Anne of Green Gables, A Little Princess, Pollyanna, and The Princess and the Goblin.

Death Mark Revealed for the PS Vita by Experience

Experience has officially revealed their new PS Vita game which is something of a departure from their usual games as the company is known for developing first-person dungeon crawlers but this time around they are going for a horror game. The visual novel style horror game is called Death Mark and through Famitsu we get our first info about the dark game. In Death Mark, those who are given the “mark” always end up dying and after rumors begin to start in the Tokyo Metropolitan H City a mysterious death related to this mark occurs.

This “mark” suddenly appears on someone’s body out of nowhere and without any explanation of how these “marks” appear those who possess it are invited to a strange mansion and the player character just so happens to be one of them. When you arrive at this mansion a strange but beautiful doll speaks to you, stating that you have arrived at Kujo Mansion and that the path will lead you to death, “However, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a way to be saved.”

Horizon Zero Dawn Story Trailer Released

Horizon Zero Dawn Story Trailer Released

A new trailer for one of PlayStation 4‘s most anticipated games of the year, Horizon Zero Dawn has been released. This trailer focuses more on the story aspects of the game showing off some new locations and enemies as well as what appears to be the games major antagonist. Of course the trailer kept it short and vague but it’s clear to see the masked warriors responsible for raising the machines will make up the human threat alongside all the different robo-dinos.

The official Sony blog mentions the game takes place in a post-post-apocalyptic world which is certainly an interesting setting, even if that wording makes the concept sound redundant. You can check out the new trailer for yourself below and let us know what you think of it in the comments, personally this is easily my most anticipated new IP of 2017. The full game releases on February 28th in North America and March 1st in Europe and Oceania. It is possible the UK release may be pushed back to March 3rd as per the current PS Store listing for the region, but we think this may be a case of error as March 3rd was the previous release date. You can read our hands-on preview of the game by following the link.

Top Down Horror Shooter Outbreak Hitting Steam on January 17th

Outbreak is a brand new top down horror shooter inspired by classic horror games like the original Silent Hill and Resident Evil. Instead of the usual unlimited spray of bullets found in most top down shooters, players will need to contend with limited ammunition and inventory space while hordes of undead horrors lurk around the corner. Players will only have one life per game. Each game will randomly generate the the enemy and item layouts, providing an extra challenge.

The game is set in the Arzt Memorial Hospital where a cancer research program has gone horribly wrong. Four strangers from four very different backgrounds must band together to survive and just maybe learn the truth behind the outbreak.

Outbreak supports four player online co-op with build in voice chat on cloud servers. The game launches on January 17th and will be available on Steam with an introductory sale price of $10.49 USD.
