The action game is an all-new adventure in the classic Onimusha™ franchise. The series’ first new installment in nearly two decades, Onimusha: Way of the Sword returns to a dark fantasy feudal Japan where samurai clash with the supernatural in cutting-edge combat.

To catch the first glimpse of Onimusha: Way of the Sword in action, watch the official reveal trailer on YouTube.

Onimusha is rooted in the Sengoku period, Japan’s legendary age of warring states. The games infuse history with Japanese folklore to tell tales of warriors who wield the mystical power of the Oni. These heroes are drawn into conflict with the Genma, relentless monsters hellbent on conquering the world. The franchise debuted in 2001 and instantly captivated players with its satisfying sword-based combat and exhilarating “Issen” counterattack mechanics. The series also gained recognition for its spellbinding stories portraying historical figures and real events in a dark fantasy setting. Now, having grown in popularity as one of Capcom’s best-selling properties, Onimusha is entering a whole new era.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword takes place in Kyoto during the early Edo period. In this time of relative peace for Japan, Malice has befallen the ancient city. Twisted into an eerie and unsettling place, Kyoto has been infested by the demonic Genma. In the debut trailer for Onimusha: Way of the Sword, a lone samurai armed with the Oni Gauntlet engages in fierce, blood-soaked sword fights with these hellish creatures from another world.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword launches for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam in 2026.

The newest entry to the renowned and beloved franchise will test your survival, village building and resource management skills against the beautiful, yet imposing backdrop of fjords, steep cliffs, lush green forests and fertile farmland just waiting to be cultivated.

After your ship crashes on a rugged coast, you’ll find yourself lost in a large archipelago. Fend for your life against the elements and nature itself with its ever-changing environment and build a new home for yourself as well as other survivors against a beautiful backdrop of fjords and forests. 

Prove yourself as a master village builder, when you take over the role of Jarl to plan and execute the expansion of your village and allocate the workforce or resources. Dive into an immersive open world with atmospheric landscapes and historically inspired settings, when you go on expeditions, hunt for prey or become a skilled fisher. Wield a hammer as skillful as an axe, when you set out to be a master craftsman or craftswoman, as you start building your own ship, before you set sail to discover uncharted territories, new resource-rich shores or a legendary treasure. Please the Gods to gain boons and discover the secret of your heritage, while you explore an archipelago spanning more than 30km².

Vikings Dynasty will invite you into the mystical norse landscapes when it sails into Early Access on PC in late 2025. For more information on the game visit the official product page on Steam, where it can already be wishlisted.

Screamer returns in the form of a futuristic, story-driven racing game, created in collaboration with Polygon Pictures and featuring Troy Baker lending his iconic voice to a pivotal character.

Sydney, Australia, December 13, 2024 – During The Game Awards 2024, Milestone, one of the leading and longest-established racing game developers in the world, unveiled a teaser trailer announcing the return of Screamer—the 1995 title that pushed the boundaries of racing games, set a new benchmark in the genre, and brought the excitement of virtual races from arcades into players’ homes.

Embracing the trailblazing spirit of the original, Milestone has re-envisioned its most iconic IP, combining over 30 years of expertise in racing games to craft a brand-new racing experience with fighting mechanics destined to leave a lasting impact on the genre, just as the original did in the ’90s.

This brand-new Screamer seamlessly blends high-octane arcade action with revolutionary gameplay dynamics and a deep storyline enriched by interwoven character arcs. Drawing inspiration from anime and manga from the ’80s and ’90s, the narrative and visual framework will be the beating heart and soul of the experience. The game features contributions from industry-leading partners, including animated cutscenes created in collaboration with Polygon Pictures—one of the oldest and most renowned Japanese animation studios—and the acclaimed American actor Troy Baker, one of gaming’s most recognisable voices.

Combining plot themes of human will, revenge, love, and greed with classic sci-fi imagery, Screamer immerses players in the clash between personal desires and external forces that seek to control them. This journey unfolds through the eyes of a diverse cast of characters involved in a street racing tournament organised by a mysterious figure.

Scheduled for release in 2026, Screamer will be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

12 DECEMBER, STOCKHOLM – Swedish game developer 10 Chambers premiered the first gameplay trailer for their upcoming game Den of Wolves during The Game Awards 2024. The game is led by Creative Director Ulf Andersson, creator of the critically acclaimed heist games Payday: THE HEIST and PAYDAY 2. The trailer opened with a sweeping shot of Midway City’s corporate-dominated skyline, where massive skyscrapers bearing the logos of powerful corporations pierce the clouds, setting the stage for this ambitious new cooperative heist game. Then it jumps right into gameplay heisting.

Den of Wolves is a 4-player cooperative first-person shooter that evolves the heist genre by combining traditional infiltration gameplay with a unique neural hacking element.

“Even if I have my backstory with PAYDAY: The Heist and PAYDAY 2, that is over ten years ago, so I’ve evolved as a developer and a creative. Den of Wolves comes as much from our latest game, GTFO, as from the PAYDAY days. We will elevate what a heist game can be – what a heist can be. You can only rob so many banks,” says Ulf Andersson, Creative Director at 10 Chambers.

The game takes place in Midway City, a corporate free zone established in 2035 through Project HOPLON. Built on the remote Midway Atoll in the Pacific Ocean, the city was created to respond to devastating AI-driven cyber attacks that nearly collapsed the global economy in the early 2030s. What began as a high-security corporate zone designed to protect critical financial and technological infrastructure has evolved into a dystopian metropolis where corporations operate with unlimited power and minimal oversight.

“Even though Den of Wolves is not an open-world game, we’ve put a lot of time and resources into building the world around you. With everything from the in-depth backstory about why we are where we are, to the brands and corporations that build up the city – each with their independent backstories,” says Oscar J-T Holm, co-founder of 10 Chambers. “Even if you are not a fan of following the lore of the game, we believe that just knowing there are these stories around you builds a powerful purpose to playing.”

Players will explore various districts within Midway City, each with its own distinct character and controlling corporate interests. The first district available at launch will be Promise District, controlled by the powerful USTMAN SACS corporation. Promise District features a dramatic vertical design where social status determines altitude – from the luxurious upper levels reserved for corporate elites to the deteriorating slums below. In this environment of extreme inequality and corporate control, players must navigate advanced surveillance systems and corrupt security forces to execute their heists.

At the end of the trailer, a release date is revealed—at least parts of it.

“The cryptic release date in the trailer is our homage to classic FPS games where developers were bold about releasing when ready. In today’s industry of rushed releases, we want to be transparent about game development’s challenges. The game will come to Steam Early Access – when it’s ready,” says Robin Björkell, Communications Director at 10 Chambers.

PAYDAY THE HEIST® and PAYDAY 2® are registered trademarks of their respective owners. 10 Chambers AB is not associated with, affiliated with, sponsored by and/or endorsed by them.

About 10 Chambers

Founded in 2015, 10 Chambers is a game studio based in Stockholm, Sweden. The studio was founded by Ulf Andersson, who founded Overkill Software and was the brain behind the PAYDAY franchise. 10 Chambers’ debut title GTFO was released in 2019. The studio is currently in active development of its second title, Den of Wolves. More information about 10 Chambers is available at www.10chambers.com.

Start of an all-new crime saga for the acclaimed Mafia franchise coming Summer 2025, available to wishlist now

Today, 2K and Hangar 13 released a new trailer for Mafia: The Old Country, introducing the brutal criminal underworld of 1900s Sicily at The Game Awards. Marking the start of a new crime saga for the acclaimed Mafia franchise, Mafia: The Old Country is an all-new story set in the Mafia universe, harkening back to the roots of organized crime with a compelling new cast of characters.

The graphically stunning cinematic experience features a story grounded in the brutal world of organised crime that authentically immerses players with dangerous combat systems featuring high-stakes, grounded stealth and gunplay mechanics.

Mafia: The Old Country introduces a new, original protagonist for players to embody. Enzo’s story unfolds in a time when skill with a stiletto blade was a deadly asset, a lupara sawed-off shotgun was a go-to firearm, murderous vendettas raged for decades, and mafiosi patrolled their protection rackets on foot, horseback, or behind the wheel of turn-of-the-century motorcars.

Through grit and determination, Enzo has survived a childhood of indentured labour in Sicily’s hellish sulphur mines. Now, through a twist of fate, he has the opportunity to join Don Torrisi’s crime family, and will do whatever it takes to carve out a better life for himself. By swearing an oath, Enzo has committed himself to the Torrisi family’s code of honour, with all the power and hardship it entails. He must never forget this simple truth: Family Takes Sacrifice.

“Mafia: The Old Country is a love letter to old-style, gritty Mafia stories where players can uncover the origins of organised crime,” said Nick Baynes, President of Hangar 13, “Everyone at Hangar 13 is committed to creating the most authentic and intense story of the franchise, and we can’t wait for players to experience the journey with Enzo.”

First established in 2002 with the launch of the landmark game Mafia, the franchise has sold-in more than 35 million copies across consoles and PC. Hangar 13 has spent 22 years immersing players in brutal Mafia worlds, and now these franchise veterans are focused on Mafia: The Old Country.

• Fight solo or in co-op with up to three other players in this immense sci-fi adventure, packed with free-form combat and exploration, pulse-pounding boss fights, infinitely varied loot drops, and an eclectic cast of unforgettable characters new and old.

“Borderlands 4 is about freedom and being badass,” said Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford. “This is by far the biggest and most insane world we’ve ever made – it’s overloaded with jerkface ratnozzle scrote monsters that need to be put down with the most over-the-top hardcore nuts op guns and loot in any game ever. Oh, and the story also seriously kicks ass!”

Borderlands 4 will launch in 2025 on PlayStation®5 (PS5®), Xbox Series X|S and PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store. It is available to wishlist now.
