It’s all sunshine and rainbows at the beach until a goat set on destruction decides to ruin everything. That’s exactly what happened in the new Goat Simulator 3 trailer. 

Oddly enough, if you’ve kept up with video game news and trailers for years, the Goat Simulator 3 reveal trailer might have seemed highly familiar initially. That’s because it was riffing off of the Dead Island 2 trailer released many years ago. In that trailer, a man attempts to go for a beachside jog with headphones blasting music into his ears, and throughout the run, he’s oblivious to the zombie carnage around him. That’s exactly what happens in this Goat Simulator 3 trailer, except the big carnage-causing reveal isn’t zombies – it’s goats. 

Check it out for yourself below: 

Another odd thing about the Goat Simulator 3 trailer is that the last Goat Simulator game was the first one. This means the team is completely skipping over Goat Simulator 2, it seems, which is as chaotic as the series itself. 

Goat Simulator 3 is coming to PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and PC, this fall. 

While waiting for Goat Simulator 3, read Game Informer’s Goat Simulator review. 

Former Blizzard alumni are bringing their RTS chops to a new game from Frost Giant Studios with Stormgate. The debut trailer, which you can watch above, debuted at Summer Game Fest this afternoon.

Tim Morten, production director and CEO of Frost Giant Studios, joined Summer Game Fest host Geoff Keigley on stage to reveal a little about the new Strategy title. He describes the titular Stormgates as portals that open during solar storms that unleash the Infernal Host onto a future Earth. The trailer showed a taste of both the demonic-looking Infernal Host faction, along with the second announced race, the Human Resistance, which is represented in the footage by the archeologist, and possibly the cool-looking mech. More factions will be revealed in the future, but those were the only two Morten would confirm during today's reveal.

Morten says Stormgate is built for approachability and is set to be free to play but won't have any pay to win transactions or NFTs. Its also going to be designed for more social interaction. Stormgate's campaign can be played cooperatively. It'll also have 3-player "open-ended co-op" and support for 3v3 PvP battles, along with 1v1 for those who want a more personal galactic struggle.

Stormgate will be entering beta in 2023, and interested players can sign up on the game's website for the chance to participate in the test.

Summer Game Fest has brought plenty of substantial looks at upcoming titles. The Astronauts' Witchfire is no exception. The upcoming first-person shooter is set against gothic backdrops, with fantastical creatures standing in your way. First announced back in 2017, the game has been in development for some time now, so it's great to see it in action and inching closer to a full release. 

The trailer, which you can watch above, showed off the gunplay, the ability to freeze enemies, ways to use the environment to distract them, bow-and-arrow attacks, and a stable of other cool magical powers. Set in an alternate reality, Witchfire centers on a deadly war raging between witches and the church. 

The biggest announcement is that the game is entering Early Access soon. Right now, it is currently only announced for PC and is set to appear on the Epic Games store. So if you're looking for a dark fantasy shooter, keep your eyes open for more details to play the game earlier. 

Square Enix and developer People Can Fly have unveiled their new co-op trailer for Outriders Worldslayer.

"Facing the challenges of Enoch in co-op takes the intense action to the next level," the developer states. "Drop-in and drop-out at any time and experience the new environments, new enemies and new features of Outriders Worldslayer in single player or in co-op with your friends."

So, without further ado, let's dive on in and see the trailer.

Summer Game Fest kickoff livestream hosted the first gameplay reveal of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. The extended demo took players on a rain-soaked through Dark Water, a mission that sees Task Force 141's attempt to disarm a missile on an ocean oil rig. 

The video featured Soap and Ghost infiltrating the rig off the Gulf of Mexico during a ferocious storm. Their mission begins quietly as the pair, alongside new teammates such as Mexican Special Forces Operator Alejandro, stealthily picks off targets as they work towards their objective. As you may expect, things don’t go as planned. The battle escalates along with the weather as the action moves to the deck of a ship that gets tossed and turned by the violent waves. Showing off the game’s physics system, cargo crates constantly slide across the deck, providing ever-changing cover points for both the player and the enemy.  

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II launches on October 28 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Summer Game Fest has just kicked off and so has a new combatant for Capcom’s upcoming Street Fighter 6. Yep, the U.S. Air Force’s finest, Guile, is back. Like some other famous Street Fighters from back in the day, he’s only gone and grown some facial fluff too. Does it deflect blows or something? Judge for yourself after watching the trailer.

Flashback, the Delphine platformer from 1992, has a sequel on the way. It's called Flashback 2, but the 2 is very small so it looks sciencey.

We've known about this for a while, but we've just got a proper glimpse of the game at Geoff's Summer Games Fest thing. I say proper glimpse - the trailer's stylish but tricky to read too much into. There's lots of mantling and side-on platforming and the suggestion that physics and big robots both play a part, so that's all okay with us.

Flashback 2 will be out this Winter on all the consoles and PC by the looks of it. Microids is in charge.

Tonight brought a look at a gameplay mission from Infinity Ward's upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, as part of the Geoff Keighley-fronted Summer Game Fest.

If you're not up to date, this is the sequel to the 2019 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare which rebooted the series and re-imagined some of its popular characters.

Here we find them boarding a ship and getting into all sorts of shooty business. There's a bit of that fancy water which Wes reported on in his earlier look at the game, too.

Its Summer Game Fest time, and things have been kicked off with a trip into outer space. Yes, we have our first look at Dead Space 4. Sorry, I mean The Callisto Protocol (easy mistake to make).

As you would expect, it is a bloody horror filled rampage against some pretty ugly looking fellas. I am talking limbs coming off left, right and centre. There is also a look at a gravity gun in use, and our protagonist stomping down on a felled enemy's corpse (because you just would if that thing came at you!).

We also get to see, erm, well, someone getting trapped in a fan of sorts, resulting in them getting mushed up. To sum up, it's unpleasant, clausterphobic and, won't lie, I'm here for it. See what you think for yourself below.

Volition's upcoming reboot of Saints Row is all about coming up in the crime business in your own way, and that includes the looks and styles displayed on your version of The Boss. In anticipation of Saints Row's release, you'll be able to customize your Boss in an extensive character creator called Boss Factory and bring your creation into the final game when it launches on August 23. We got our hands on the Boss Factory early and had some fun concocting our ideal crimelord.

In this edition of New Gameplay Today, your hosts, Alex Stadnik, Jill Grodt, and John Carson, put the Boss Factory through its paces, creating something truly monstrous in the process. We hope you like demonic eyes and the slickest, oiliest skin that only a dip in a vat of olive oil could produce. Everything from skull shaping to gradient hair coloring, limb prosthetics, makeup, and scars are on the table; it's really an impressive toolset for players to mess with. Because there's so much to customize, this is an extended NGT, so sit back and enjoy the mayhem you can unleash before even stepping into the dangerous streets of Santo Ileso.

The Callisto Protocol releases on December 2 and is currently on Game Informer's newest cover. At today's Summer Game Fest, a new "red band" trailer debuted, alongside two gameplay sequences that show off the sci-fi horror game's pacing, combat, and ridiculous amounts of gore. 

Protagonist Jacob Lee dishes out plenty of punishment with sci-fi weapons and a familiar looking boot stomp. The trailer above is Glen Schofield's cut, showing just how violent and bloody the game can get. The footage below shows clips from two sequences. One with Lee in prison garb and another with him armored up and ready for war.

The Callisto Protocol is coming to PlayStation and Xbox consoles and PC on December 2. It's the beginning of a new series, but for fans of Dead Space, probably looks like a sequel you've been waiting almost a decade to play.

What do you think of The Callisto Protocol? And how do you think EA's Dead Space remake will stake up against it? Let us know in the comments section below!

The Summer Game Fest has brought the announcement of a new game based on Aliens, this time taking HR Giger's glistening penetrators and James Cameron's gung-ho space marines into real-time squad action. Due to launch next year, Aliens: Dark Descent will see marines battling xenomorphs as well as those Weyland-Yutani scamps. Sounds like it might be interesting, with persistent upgrades and deaths across a campaign. Check out the announcement trailer below.

Capcom has just shown off some brand-new Street Fighter 6 gameplay during the Summer Game Fest showcase, giving us our first look at the legendary Guile in action.

We get to see the glorious return of the Sonic Boom, and Guile’s new look! Check out the return of the most outrageous flat-top in all of gaming for yourself:

Guile returns in Street Fighter 6 when it lands in 2023. He went home to become a family man, but now a new mission awaits. Guile’s move set in Street Fighter 6 combines his signature moves with fresh additions. He is one powerhouse of a character who retains his ability to keep opponents at a distance.

For more on the game, be sure to check out all of the related articles we’ve got below. We’ve also got plenty of other Summer Games Fest news on the front page of Twinfinite that you aren’t going to want to miss out on.

Last week’s Sony State of Play gave us a first look at gameplay for the highly anticipated Street Fighter 6. Today’s Summer Game Fest presentation opened with a second glimpse at the game, this time to add another fighter to the roster. Guile has entered the fight.

The news should surprise precisely no one, as Guile has been a fixture of the popular fighting game franchise for decades. However, it’s always fun to see the ways that Capcom is updating their most familiar warriors for a new outing, and the new trailer gave us a look at the well-coifed martial artist.

Guile has always had ties to American culture and military elements, and that backdrop continues in the next installment. We see Guile fighting against a background environment very reminiscent of his early appearances, with a jet in the background, and the towering structure of what looks to be an aircraft carrier in the distance. Sailors and dock workers appear to gather and cheer on the fight.

Like in the first-look trailer we saw last week, Guile’s moves feature some of the same flashy painterly effects that we first saw with characters like Ryu and Chun-Li. Those bright and colorful effects are a fun contrast to the new more realistic styling of characters provided through the use of the RE engine, the same engine used to craft games like Devil May Cry 6, Monster Hunter Rise, and Resident Evil Village.

Those pesky Xenomorphs are heading back PC and consoles next year in the newly announced Aliens: Dark Descent.

Coming from developer Tindalos Interactive and publisher Focus Entertainment, Aliens: Dark Descent is a "squad-based, single-player action game" that sees players commanding their soldiers in real-time as they take on Xenomorphs - including Facehuggers, Praetorians, and Alien Queens - as well as rogue human operatives from the Weyland-Yutani Corporation.

"Infiltrate large open levels and annihilate enemies with your squad, dispatching orders strategically and intuitively at the touch of a button," the game's newly launched Steam page explains. "Tread carefully, as your foes will adapt their tactics to your actions while hunting you down because death is permanent. Forge unique paths for survival, uncovering shortcuts, creating safe zones, and setting up motion trackers in a persistent world where your actions impact levels forever."

While mostly only a cinematic trailer, there is a new game in the Aliens universe coming called Aliens: Dark Descent. You can expect to get your hands on it sometime in 2023. The small sliver of gameplay appears to show off that is possibly a twin-stick shooter.

You can watch the trailer for Aliens: Dark Descent below:

The description for the trailer shares this chunk of information about what can be expected:

Today, Focus Entertainment and Tindalos Interactive , in collaboration with 20th Century Studios, revealed Aliens: Dark Descent, an enthralling single player squad-based action game set within the iconic Alien franchise for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series, Xbox One and PC. Drop into an original Alien story where players will lead a squad of marines in real-time combat against the deadliest creature mankind has ever faced. Get a first look at the Aliens: Dark Descent experience awaiting you on Moon Lethe with this unnerving World Premiere Reveal Trailer, as we follow a squad of Colonial Marines during a recon mission.

Summer Game Fest Live has had no shortage of space-themed experiences with The Callisto Protocol, Aliens: Dark Descent, Fort Solis, and more. However, host Geoff Keighly surprised viewers with one stellar game long-since thought lost to the development void: Routine. 

From Lunar Software and Raw Fury, the first-person horror all about exploring an abandoned moon base, took the stage with an unsettling new trailer. With desolate lunarscapes, dilapidated empty hallways, and a grainy, filmic vibe, the game’s latest look was set to ratchet up the tension. Its nightmarish death-dealing robot makes it stand out from the rest of the showcase’s intergalactic titles, but the short clip gives little detail on what to expect or if the game’s direction has changed significantly since we last saw it. However, we do know that composer Mick Gordon, known for his work on the Wolfenstein and Doom series, is creating its musical score. 

However, the team behind the game has already posted a message to players on their website about Routine’s long disappearance. Saying:

Want to know when does Aliens: Dark Descent come out? Well, you aren’t the only one, as next-gen players can’t wait to play this new horror game. Thankfully, we now know we’ve got a release window. Here is everything you need to know.

When Does Aliens: Dark Descent Come Out

Aliens: Dark Descent is set to release for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC in 2023.

As of now, there’s no word on exactly when in 2023 the game will arrive on all platforms. We will be sure to update this article when one does come out.

That’ll do it for everything you need to know about when does Aliens: Dark Descent come out. If you’re still on the hunt for more info about the game, be sure to check out the rest of Twinfinite to see the rest of our guides, which have plenty of tips, tricks, and FAQs.

Capcom revealed a character that will join the roster of Street Fighter 6 during the Summer Game Fest 2022 stream. Guile will be returning to the lineup of characters in Street Fighter 6. A short video was shown during the event, which showcased a range of moves that he will be carrying into the game.

You can watch the character reveal and gameplay trailer below.

Street Fighter 6 is the latest entry in the series, and features redesigns of popular characters like Chun-Li, Ryu, and now Guile. Shortly before Summer Game Fest, the leak appeared which shared artwork of other characters that will appear in the game. This has included Cammy, Blanka, and Ken. Each of these characters has received a redesign of sorts. Shortly after the leak, Capcom made a statement regarding the validity of the information that was shared.

Capcom also released a music video featuring the theme song of Street Fighter 6, "Not On The Sidelines." The video also contained gameplay for Chun-Li, Ryu, and Jamie. Additionally, Capcom has been periodically sharing short gameplay snippets about various characters. This included a look at Chun-Li and how her moves will appear in Street Fighter 6.

During Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest livestream, Capcom came through with a new look at some Street Fighter 6 gameplay and a character reveal.

Today, announced today during Summer Game Fest, Fallen Leaf Studio announced its debut game: Fort Solis. While details about what the game actually is were sparse, the big draw, at least according to the trailer, is the game's acting talent. 

Roger Clark, most well known for playing Arthur Morgan in Red Dead Redemption II, Troy Baker, famous for his portrayal of Joel in The Last of Us series, and Julia Brown, a TV actress known for The Alienist, all have roles in Fort Solis. 

The brief trailer serves mostly as a mood piece, showing the game's protagonist, Wyatt Taylor (Baker), dealing with some kind of threat in the titular Fort Solis. You can see the trailer in full below:

Fallen Leaf Studio is a new developer based in Liverpool, England. Fort Solis is its first project.

After a brief showing at State of Play last week, upcoming sci-fi shooter The Callisto Protocol got a full-on gameplay demo during today’s Summer Game Fest kick-off show.

Seven years ago, I had high praise for Space Beast Terror Fright, a tense and often intense roguelikelike FPS about exploring alien-infested spaceships. It was murderously punishing, with limited ammo and endless aliens making it important to seal up routes and activate sentry turrets. It was great! Well, SBTF finally left early access and launched in full over the weekend, so I returned today and oh no. I have grown so very old since 2015, and this game is now too much for me. Oh no.

Tindalos Interactive and publisher Focus Entertainment have revealed Aliens: Dark Descent, which appears to be a tactical shooter of sorts, and it's coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC next year. 

Revealed during today's Summer Game Fest showcase, Aliens: Dark Descent is about a squad of marines trekking through a now-destroyed spacecraft on the search for an offline relay. Their goal was simple: get the relay back online, but upon entering the craft, they find it's in ruins thanks to some Xenomorphs. And not just one Xenomorph, but multiple. It's coming to consoles and PC sometime in 2023. 

You can check out the reveal trailer below: 

The trailer mainly was CG and featured a squad of just a few marines, but right at the end, it appeared that some gameplay footage began to play. This gameplay looked like XCOM or The Ascent in that it featured an isometric viewpoint with enemies rushing the soldiers across the screen. It looked great, but because it was just a snippet of gameplay, it's hard to tell exactly what to expect in Aliens: Dark Descent. Focus Entertainment describes it as an "enthralling single-player squad-based action game set within the iconic Aliens franchise" with "real-time combat." 

Here's some additional information from Focus Entertainment: 

If you’ve played a lot of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, you might have spotted a small but cool connection to it in the latest episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi. You may have also noticed a much sadder callback to a Clone Wars character.

The next DNF Duel character reveal is here, and this time it is the Swift Master. In Dungeon Fighter Online, the subclass stems from the Male Mage and is known for using wind to attack. This comes up during his play video, which focuses on the character’s magical attacks.

Things begin with the Swift Master flying into the battle on his staff. It then shows how the mage will use wind when facing a foe. In the sample footage, it looks like gusts can be used to force the opponent into certain positions. There are also winds and small tornadoes used to attack and lift the enemy into the air. For a finishing move, the Swift Master zips around the screen while attacking, all while also summoning another tornado.

Here's the full DNF Duel Swift Master character trailer.

This makes three DNF Duel characters revealed in June 2022 so far. The first is the Launcher. Her appearance initially made it seem like she was the Mechanic instead. (Both the Launcher and Mechanic are Female Gunner subclasses in Dungeon Fighter Online.) The second was the Troubleshooter. That’s an Agent subclass.

DNF Duel will some to the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC on June 28, 2022.

With E3 2022 canceled, there’s a vacuum at the center of the video game marketing season. Many eyes are on Summer Game Fest for being both the lengthiest and the widest-ranging presser on the horizon. But the host, Geoff Keighley, recently saw fit to temper expectations ahead of the show, saying that it won’t be flush…

We knew it was coming, but Moss: Book 2 finally has a release date on Meta Quest 2, with Polyarc's adorable VR adventure sequel set to make the jump from PSVR on 21st July.

Moss: Book 2, which picks up immediately after the events of the first game, once again builds its action around a hybrid of first-person and third-person perspectives as players, in the role of an omniscient spirit, help guide mouse protagonist Quill on her quest to free the land from the clutches of the evil Arcane.

Polyarc's sequel initially launched for PSVR earlier this year, and Eurogamer's resident virtual reality aficionado Ian Higton was delighted to revisit the series' cinematic blend of puzzling and combat in his glowing Moss: Book 2 review.
