Itatake’s new online PvP battle game Kloot Arena has launched
If you are looking for quite an interesting new way to battle to be the best, then Itatakes’ latest turn-based PvP game, Kloot Arena, is for you. With its quite unique battle system punctuated by short rounds of explosive action, Kloot will keep you hooked. Kloot Arena plays like a very angry game of marbles and seems pretty unique. Taking place in a circular field, you will need to use your special ability to destroy or ring out all your opponent's cores before they can do the same to you. Combat flows in turns, so you will need to ensure each of your attacks is timed and aimed for maximum damage. There are a multitude of spherical super marbles you can choose from, each with its ow…
Amazing Seasun Games announces upcoming beta for open-world survival Dawnlands
I personally am an absolute sucker for open-world games with crafting, which means I am very much looking forward to the upcoming beta of Amazing Seasun Games' new title, Dawlands, entitled Beta: Warriors Trial, and with over 1.5 million players already pre-registered, spaces will be limited. Dawnlands places you in the role of the Warrior of Light, tasked with travelling the world to collect crystals, nope wrong series, to seek out and destroy all the remnants of the Demon Lord before he pulls himself together and begins doing dastardly deeds. Your classic RPG story then, but with a truly humongous backdrop. The open world you get to explore is a truly vast 10x10Km, with a plethora of uni…

Grab your plaid and create your own forest in RuneScape
If you are anything like me, you need your MMOs to give you the opportunity to craft all of your gear yourself, and one of the standout examples of this is RuneScape. Of course, to craft you need to gather, and these skills can take a while to level, but with this latest update, at least your Woodcutting journey can be a little easier. Woodcutting is one of those RuneScape skills that conjure fond memories in every player's mind. It is one of the most versatile skills, allowing you to build forts, and being invaluable to archers as a source of arrows, as well as being one of the first skills we were all introduced to. Seeing it honoured this way is a beautiful sight for lovers of the game.…

Blue Archive destroy the natural order of time in newest update
In a move I can only assume as being a bid to be the first game to do so, Nexon has launched a new Christmas-themed story for their RPG Blue Archive. Waking Santa up early, the Remedial Knights’ are celebrating the season, and two new recruits arrive. All of Kivotos is enjoying this unreasonable early holiday, however, the merriment will soon turn sour for the Remedial Knights, as they find themselves caught up in a conspiracy involving the Thugs.

Our first new recruit for this update is the Trinity General School Piercing-Strik…
Defense Derby opens up for pre-registration ahead of launch later this year
RisingWings, a subsidiary of Krafton, has opened pre-registrations for its upcoming real-time strategy defence title Defense Derby. You can take on three other players in PvP matches and battle it out to see who has the brains to be the last tower standing. As with all defence games, placement is important, but this is doubly so here. Where you place your units in your tower, and the type and faction of units you place, can all result in powerful synergy effects and will impact the usefulness of their abilities. You will need to carefully organise your team to come out on top. Defense Derby's most unique and interesting-sounding aspect is how you acquire units. At the beginning of each tur…

Cosy indie sensation Unpacking is heading for mobile this year
Whilst Humble Bundle is mostly known for its eponymous bundles of cheap video games that bloat our Steam libraries every month, they also operate an indie video game publisher, Humble Games. They have had quite a few hits, but now one of their undisputed top titans, Unpacking, is coming to mobile devices. Developed by Witch Bean, Unpacking is pretty much what it says on the tin. You follow the life of a female protagonist as she moves into eight different abodes through the years, from 1997 to 2018, and it is down to you to unpack her boxes and organise your new home. You will start with a single room to unbox and decorate, before advancing to multiple rooms, to a full house. It is a very…
Blade and Soul Revolution tackles the biggest MMO bugbear
Anyone who has ever played an MMO can attest that the most tedious task you are practically required to do is to grind, whether that is to complete the story missions or go ahead and tackle the endgame content, its a slog, however thankfully Netmarble is giving players a reprieve in Blade and Soul Revolution. A new training ground has opened, dubbed the Skyforest Plateau. Whilst the name sounds quite pretty, the main draw to this new area is the XP potential. You will be able to hunt high-level monsters whilst spending more stamina to maximise the among of experience you will gain, helping you reach that required level much easier. After you have achieved your slightly not-so-hard-earned l…

To celebrate this decade of success, there is a new story and new quests, with the opportunity to unlock a brand-new Minion for your troubles.

Indie developers are thrust into the spotlight in the inaugural Pocket Playfest
Some of the best games out there aren't the highly-financed AAA titles from affluent developers and studios, but instead, the humble Indie scene, developed by Barry and Dave in a shed in Devon after their day jobs. TapTap, the games discovery platform, is shining a light on these independent idealists, with the Pocket Playfest: An Indie Celebration. This inaugural event will kick off June 16th, and last until June 29th, 14 days on indie magic. TapTap will be inviting dozens of developers to showcase their creations to a wider audience, one that an independent studio might otherwise not reach which is incredibly invaluable. Participants will be able to play and vote for their favourite games…
