The Week In Games: Once Again, It's Time To Kill Some Nazis

Illustration for article titled The Week In Games: Once Again, It's Time To Kill Some Nazis

It feels like only yesterday that I played through the last Wolfenstein game and now a new one is almost here. Wolfenstein: Youngblood is a smaller spin-off starring BJ’s two daughters. I can’t wait to kill some Nazis during the 80s.

I’m still impressed that this game, like the last Wolfenstein title, is coming to Switch. I’ll never play those games on Switch, the performance is just too rocky for me, but it is still incredible those games run at all on what is basically a tablet.

Beyond Wolfenstein, a few big ports and new games are dropping this week. A new Fire Emblem is coming to Switch, Beyond: Two Souls is hitting the PC and Tetris Effect jumps from the PS4 to your computer. And for folks wanting to play Wargroove on their PS4, this is a good week for you. Sadly, no crossplay though. Come on, Sony. Quit being dumb.

Call of Cthulhu Review

Platforms: PC, Xbox One, PS4 Reviewed On: PS4 Pro Developer: Cyanide Studios Publisher: Focus Home Interactive Singleplayer: Yes Multiplayer: No Could Lovecraft ever have known just how popular his unique brand of cosmic horror would become? Since his work is now public domain the Cthulhu name is everywhere, including literally hundreds of board games, books and video games. You can’t escape tentacles, green mist and hard-boiled detectives going slowly insane, it seems. This Call of Cthulhu sounds like a sequel to Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth (released waaay back in 2005/2006) or even like some sort of barmy Call of Duty spinnoff due to its name, but actually this is no relation and instead originates from the tabletop RPG of the same title. That also means that this official video game adaption is more focused on investigation and the trauma of dealing with entities and concepts far beyond what humans can handle, which is more in keeping with Lovecraft’s original...

Wolfenstein: The New Colossus Review

Platforms: Xbox One, PS4 and PC Reviewed On: PC Developer: MachineGames Publisher: Bethesda Singleplayer: Yes Multiplayer: No Review code supplied free of charge by the publisher. A sprawling open-world, microtransactions, RPG levelling mechanics, loot and clusters of mundane side-quests that have been copied and pasted. These, it seems, are the foundations of modern triple-A video game development, the industry pumping them out like there is no tomorrow. And yet here’s is Bethesda and MachineGames putting out a linear, singleplayer FPS without a microtransaction in sight that is easily the best shooter since 2016’s awesome DOOM reboot. It’s almost like you can make a quality game without slapping consumers in the face, isn’t it? So once again the legendary hero and possible immortal super-soldier B.J. Blazkowicz is back to kill a lot of Nazi bad guys. Following on from the events of the last game he’s in somewhat of a bad state, but it isn’t long before he gets a lovely suit ...

Divinity: Original Sin 2 Review

Platforms: PC, Xbox One, PS4, Reviewed On: PC Developer: Larian Publisher: Larian Singleplayer: Yes Multiplayer: Yes Review copy provided free of charge by the publisher. Divinity: Original Sin was something of a surprise hit, the RPG managing to once again prove triple-A developers wrong by crafting a game on a budget that went on to sell extremely well. It just goes to show that if you don’t try to please everyone, gear your product toward a certain market and be sensible with your budget you can create something amazing that turns a profit. Now Larian are back with a sequel, and man is it all kinds of awesome. Best RPG since The Witcher 3? Best RPG since The Witcher 3. What probably sticks out most about Original Sin 2 is how it somehow manages to juggle serious story beats with utter lunacy. This is a strange, strange game at times, one where it is possible to play as an undead elf who gains the memories of the deceased by eating their severed body parts, get talked down t...
