After 21 years, Knights of the Old Republic's original director is returning to the series for Fate of the Old Republic

1 Share

I never would have guessed that we'd get Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 3 before Half-Life 3, but here we are. At The Game Awards 2025, we got a brief teaser trailer for Fate of the Old Republic, a follow-up to the original games whose development will be headed up by Casey Hudson, project lead on KotOR 1 and the Mass Effect trilogy.

The trailer shows a star ship—not the original games' Ebon Hawk—piloted to a remote, snowy world. Its pilot and passengers, which include a droid resembling the HK series from KotOR, emerge and approach a downed Sith capital ship from the Old Republic games.

There are any number of directions Hudson and co. could go with the story: KotOR 2 had a very vague, open-ending conclusion that has since been elaborated on in various bits and bobs of Star Wars lore crafting, most notably some of the expansions to the long-running Old Republic MMO, but that feels like the sort of stuff you can just treat as a suggestion.

Given the fact that The Old Republic takes place a good few thousand years after Knights, with another thousand and change at least before the movies after that, Saber has a fairly blank canvas to work on. At this point, more than resurrecting old characters and plotlines, there's a vibe to KotOR, an approach to Star Wars that embraces the mystery and antiquity of the galaxy that I'd love to see again.

Decrepit is a first-person horror Soulslike about escaping an undead castle, and it's even got FromSoftware icon Wheely Skeleton

1 Share

Decrepit is a brand new first-person Soulslike that blends light roguelike elements to make each stab at its dungeon-crawling gameplay a fresh nightmare. Developed by one-man studio Jämmerdal Games and published by Three Friends, the promising new game just premiered at The Game Awards.

Here's a look at the reveal trailer:

According to its Steam page, Decrepit will take place in a "decaying, medieval prison" where you must fight your way out of a forsaken castle. As if the Dark Souls parallels weren't clear enough, you'll begin every run of Decrepit in a prison cell, though its location will be different every run.

"Memorize winding corridors, unlock elevators that stay active, and discover passages that shorten your route," the dev says. "Learn which threats might appear where. Early runs feel endless. Later, you're heading straight for the boss that stopped you last time. The castle compresses as you learn it."

The Souls comparisons don't stop there. Decrepit looks to feature stamina-based combat, gnarly looking undead foes (including a skeleton attached to a large wheel!), and some labyrinthine level design. Oh, and yes, you should absolutely expect challenging boss fights.

Decrepit is planned to release in 2026, but you can sign up for a playtest on Steam.

New Game Decrepit Blends Souls-Like Combat With Old-School Dungeon-Crawling

1 Share

Decrepit, a new dark fantasy game, has been unveiled at The Game Awards. Inspired by souls-like games, the first-person dungeon-crawler doesn't have a final release date yet, but it is in development for PC and is aiming to launch in 2026.

Like several other souls-likes, Decrepit is built around stamina-based combat. Developer Jämmerdal Games says players will need to master the space around them to overcome the monsters that stand in their way, and while hidden secrets can provide permanent bonuses, they are no substitute for knowledge and the perfect execution of moves. Each weapon in Decrepit has distinct attack patterns, and spells can be used to deal heavy damage when a window of opportunity opens up.

Games like Hexen and Eye of the Beholder are some of the influences cited by the developer, but with a modern souls-like inspiration at its core, you'll need to study enemy attack patterns and strike quickly at the right time. Every death drags you back to the starting dungeons--and stripped of all equipment--so knowledge truly is power in this game. Players can choose from several equipment-based classes--Mage, Warrior, Rogue, or Shaman--and finding the right gear to match your archetype will unlock set bonuses and unique abilities.

Inspired by classic tabletop RPGs, Solasta 2 finally has a launch date, and an awfully familiar cast

1 Share

If you're someone who keeps up with my writing, you'll know that I am very much in my #D&Dera. Fueled by Brian Murphy's Not Another D&D Podcast, Critical Role Campaign 4, and a whole lot of coffee, I sometimes wonder where my poetry-slinging Aasimar bard ends and I begin. Having eventually completed the mighty Baldur's Gate 3 earlier this year, I've been craving another Forgotten Realms adventure. Troika's Temple of Elemental Evil remaster has certainly piqued my interest (I'm a Bloodlines savant), but Solasta 2 is the game I've really got my eyes on - and it finally has a release date.

Pragmata escapes the Capcom mines after 6 years: release date set for April 2026, surprise demo out today, and Nintendo Switch 2 version announced

1 Share

Capcom's upcoming action-adventure game Pragmata is officially set to launch on April 24, 2026, there's a surprise demo coming at some point later today - and we're not done yet - a Switch 2 version has been announced.

All of this went down at The Game Awards 2025, where we got a new trailer for the third-person sci-fi adventure, which puts players in control of both spacefarer Hugh and his robot companion, Diana. The new trailer showcases the apparent father-daughter relationship between the two before the action kicks off and we catch a few glimpses at how Hugh and Diana work together to combat enemy AI. It's definitely worth a watch, so go ahead and do that:
