Someone at Kepler Interactive needs a raise. Have you seen the games they’ve got coming in 2024? If not, why not? For the last time, stop blaming the dog. Get your act together, 007, and check out the list below.
Pacific Drive
I have no idea what this is, but it looks incredible. That’s a lie. How can you not look this up after watching the trailer?! Developed by Ironwood Studios, Pacific Drive is a first-person survival game where your only companion is your car.
Take a pitstop at the many abandoned garages and scavenge for parts to keep you and your car alive…? Key features include:
- Outrun the storm while facing strange perils in a world that shifts with every journey into the Zone
- Your car, your way – scavenge resources to craft new equipment and configure your wagon how you want. Experiment with different mods and car parts to navigate a treacherous landscape, and look good doing it
- Unravel the mystery of the Olympic Exclusion Zone, an abandoned research site in an anomaly-filled version of the Pacific Northwest
- Original score by Wilbert Roget, II and featuring 20+ licensed songs
The release date isn’t a loose ‘sometime in Q– 2024: Pacific Drive is coming to PC and PS5 on the 22nd February 2024.
Tchia
Regrettably, I’m steadily working my way through Tchia on the PS5. There have been so many demanding games of late, this little chill piece by Awaceb has taken a back seat.
PC gamers might be shouting at their screens now as if only they could play it on their computer while PlayStation users leave the game festering on their hard drives. Good news: Tchia will be heading to Steam in March 2024.
ULTROS
I’ve already mentioned ULTROS, as this is totally my thing. When you search for colour theory, instead of getting a Dulux colour wheel, you should see a link to this trailer:
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn
Ooohh… Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn looks ace, and Kepler Interactive has launched a trailer to show the gameplay. It’s about time we had a new female lead to enter the Souls-like arena…
Unrailed 2: Back On Track
You’ll note that I’ve run out of steam in what I’ve been saying about each title. While the order wasn’t a conscious decision, the further I went down the list, the less I knew about the titles.
That’s not the case for Unrailed 2: Back on Track. I reviewed the first game, and for a train-themed title, it was an enjoyable one. The same voxel visuals are present, as is the wacky humour for its predecessor.
