One game that a lot of people wished they were a part of the beta for is Supercell’s newest game called Clash Royale. If you missed our previous coverage of this game, it is basically a mix of MOBA gamepay with TCG mechanics to form a pretty unique blend of gameplay which becomes very addictive.

A few developers from Irrational Games and Harmonix have come together to form a new company called Half Glass Games. The company’s first release is a neat little twitch-style (as in you need quick reactions) arcade game called Chased by the Sun. This game is all about close calls, and pretty much every move you make in this happens to be a close call.
Dark Souls III is slated for release onto PC and console this month and fans of the franchise are chomping at the bit for it to arrive. I should know because I am one of them. However, Bandai Namco and GameStop have teamed up together to release a little Dark Souls III inspired promotional mobile game called Slashy Souls.
While the official Humble Mobile Bundle may be back for good, the idea of having Android games making their appearance in other Humble Bundles seems to be continuing as well. The latest Humble Indie Bundle 16 has a good selection of games, with a couple of them actually being for the Android platform as well.
The annual Game Developers Conference will be arriving this month like always, and we will be there like always as well. This year is already shaping up to be a pretty awesome one with some of the games we will be going hands-on with while running around like crazy. So here is an idea of what we will be checking out during GDC and, of course, if there’s anything you want us to scope out or have questions you want us to ask a specific developer, do let us know.
As we reported last week, the HTC Vive Consumer Edition VR headset bundle went live with pre-orders on February 29th, 2016. One concern that some people has with the possible success of this headset was the pricing, with the pre-order package coming in at $799, which is $200 more than the Oculus Rift.
While we haven’t done our Hidden Gem series in a bit, it doesn’t mean we don’t find any more hidden gems on Google Play. Quite the opposite actually and this is one of those games that could easily qualify as a hidden gem, even with how new it is. Meet Ignatius, a new puzzle platformer with a pretty interesting visual style and a storyline to match it.
The Oculus Rift will be the first Virtual Reality headset to get the first CCG (Collectible Card Game) title in the near future. The game is called Dragon Front and is being developed by High Voltage and produced by Oculus Studios. Overall, Dragon Front meshes a fantasy theme with a more modern theme regarding the technology in it, for a more advanced Steampunk/Dieselpunk look to it.
Google likes to add different sections to showcase different types of games and applications on Google Play. This has been anything and everything from free-to-play games, to applications that are tools for a specific purpose, to genre specific categories. Some of these categories stay, while others end up disappearing after a short amount of time.
Nexon Korea has pushed out a new update for their RPG called Legion of Heroes. This particular RPG is one of those titles we label as a ‘collectible RPG’, since you end up collecting a bunch of heroes to use, far more than you would in a typical RPG. The Mythic Update, as this is called, brings a new raid, new level cap, a couple of new heroes and more.
