Legendswas scheduled to be launched in Q4 2015, but as Bethesda’s VP of Marketing Pete Hines tweeted, the chances of it coming out this year are slim: @tal_elmari think it’s safe to say it’s not coming in the next 15 days....

Don’t give up, skeleton! I love it when Humble Bundle dips into console gaming every now and then. This week, it’s theHumble Indie PlayStation Bundle 2019, a batch of okay to great games from a wide range of publishers. Depending on the gaps in your PS4 library, there’s a lot to like here.

Alan Wake’s ‘The Writer’ add-on dated for next month

“The Signal” add-on forAlan Wakewas compelling. It expanded on some of the concepts from the on-disc content and its heightened difficulty kept the adrenaline flowing. That said, it was a free download for most of us; our expectations were adjusted accordingly. The second — and final, as it turns out — add-on forAlan Wake, “The Writer,” has been marked for an October 12 release at $7. I’m hopeful that it will answer some questions without adding even more confusion to the story, or at least end on a sort of meaningful way....

The most high-profile of which is Yaga, an action-RPG They did it. They got my first real, honest-to-goodness five bucks for Apple Arcade.

I’ve found it worth the money, at least so far....

Clobbr is a game where you drop rocks on a cat

‘Contains precious, adorable, mild violence’ The developers ofClobbrsent me a code for the game on iOS, and I was shocked by what I saw. The game is reminiscent ofChu Chu Rocketin a couple of ways. Both games are about protecting mice from an orange cat, and both task you to arrange some arrows so that things go places. The difference with Clobbr is that instead of directing mice to escape from a cat, you’re directing a large rock to drop on a cat’s head....

Days Gone feels like a stitched-together corpse made up of other games

But maybe that’s okay! Days Gonetook up a sizable portion ofSony’s E3 press conferencethis year. In addition to a narrative trailer, there was segment of gameplay, making for an odd split during the conference. A few days later, I saw a live walkthrough of that same section behind closed doors. Almost the exact same beats happened throughout the presentation, but the group interview I participated in afterwards ended up being more worthwhile....
