Still releasing in October, though.
The upcoming Hellboy video game from Upstream Arcade is being delayed by two weeks to ensure “that all players – longtime fans and newcomers to the Hellboy universe alike – receive the best experience possible”, publisher Good Shepherd Entertainment has revealed today.
Hellboy Web of Wyrd will now be launching on 18th October 2023, right in-between some of the month’s biggest releases. The upcoming third-person beat ’em up with procedurally generated levels looks particularly striking thanks to its hand-drawn-style visuals that attempt to recreate the magic of creator Mike Mignola’s art style. The late Lance Reddick plays the iconic Big Red who is sent to the realm of Wyrd after a Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (B.P.R.D.) goes missing.

Oh my Dog.
The ’90s was a decade-long blitz of out-there marketing campaigns, lads mags, and PlayStation; rich experimentation with the polygon and a concerted effort to push the boundaries of bad taste. Rise of The Triad, based on a modified version of ID’s Wolfenstein engine, was initially pitched as a sequel before becoming a standalone PC title in 1995. Developed by Apogee Software (which became 3D Realms), this ‘Ludicrous Edition’ is handled by Nightdive Studios, who has a solid track record in remastering classic PC titles.
Rise of the Triad follows H.U.N.T, a crack UN covert team tasked with infiltrating San Nicolas Island to stop a strange, Nazi-esque cult from launching nukes at Los Angeles. While your team, a band of operatives with different properties in speed, firepower, and strength, are typically fashioned, the game itself is a bizarre, otherworldly romp through maze-like stages littered with the dark and bizarre, abstract and insane, peppered with occult motifs and oddly futuristic apparatus.

While it looks like we’ll have to wait until 2024 to catch either of these, Netflix has released short teaser trailers to hint at what might be in store when they eventually release. Not only that, but we also got a new trailer for the upcoming Far Cry: Blood Dragon adaptation Captain Laserhawk along with an extended clip of the animated Scott Pilgrim series.

Say cheese.
Afterdream is a pixel art horror title that puts atmosphere and puzzle-solving above all else. Taking place within the psyche of our protagonist as she recounts her vivid dreams, this format allows Afterdream to make liberal use of weird imagery to tell an intriguing and engaging story.
Drawing inspiration from classic survival horror games – specifically in how you solve puzzles – Afterdream requires you to observe your surroundings and interact with the objects found within. For the most part, you’ll find items that might be missing a key component, meaning you’ll need to search the adjacent rooms and return once you’ve found what you’re looking for.
