Kingmakers – 2025 (Switch unconfirmed)
What is Medieval warfare lacking? Guns? Tanks? Flamethrowers? That’s precisely what developer Redemption Road thought, so it made Kingmakers, a third-person sandbox technique shooter the place you’ll be able to change the course of historical past.
Bringing the weapons and warfare techniques from the 1900s to the 1400s looks like a recipe for catastrophe, however this is not your precise, regular 1400s Medieval struggle — we’re making an attempt to forestall the apocalypse. That appears fairly necessary. Every battle makes use of real-time simulation and you may play alone or with a good friend on-line by way of co-op. It appears formidable, and the premise alone has us intrigued.

We’re suckers for stop-motion, however my goodness, we have by no means seen stop-motion this cute, cuddly, or vibrant. Feltopia is a shoot-em-up made solely out of felt, all handmade and animated by the workforce at Wooly Games.
Andrea Love, artistic director of the sport, has been animating with wool for years and gained an enormous following on social media — her work is unimaginable, and seeing package dropped at life in shmup type is frankly wonderful.
