Last week we talked about a rather cool looking turn-based combat game called Aerena – Clash of Champions by Cliffhanger Productions. This is one of those games we’ve been talking about lately that will be arriving with cross-platform support between mobile and PC gamers, being available through Steam for PC, Mac and Linux users while also being launched on iOS and Android for the mobile gamer to enjoy.
Back near the beginning of September of this year we talked about Ubisoft who announced that they will be releasing three new games in the near future. The first game based off of the Rabbids franchise was released last week and now we know when the next Rayman themed game will be arriving along with how much it will cost you to buy it.
Sega has announced their upcoming line-up of games for mobile and out of the five games announced, two of them will be arriving onto Android in the near future. Of course this doesn’t mean that the other three won’t show up, just that these two are the ones arriving sooner rather than later.
Terraria was just recently released onto Android last month and we are already talking about the sequel. Details regarding the actual Terraria 2 game are pretty scarce but there is a good reason for that, development on the actual game itself hasn’t really even started yet. With that said, we do know a few things regarding the launch of the sequel and what platforms will be getting the game.
It has been awhile since we got to talk about a major update to Minecraft: Pocket Edition since the past few updates have been minor version increases, mostly dealing with bug fixes pertaining to Minecraft Pocket Realms. Well now we finally get to talk about the next major update which will be version 0.8.0 and basically confirms that Redstone is on the way to the game very soon.
Roccat has been making PC gaming peripherals for awhile now and it seems the company wants a piece of the mobile action but not in the way you are probably thinking. While Roccat hasn’t jumped into making actual peripherals for mobile gaming, they have released an application they have been working on for awhile now that will turn your Android phone or tablet into a gaming peripheral.
EA has plenty of franchises in their catalog of games for a variety of platforms but their main FPS franchise called Battlefield is one that the company has big plans for in the near future. These plans pertain to bringing the franchise to mobile but it isn’t just about bringing a port of the game over. It’s also about having it ‘inter-operate’ with the game on other platforms as well, making it a true cross-platform mobile game. This is a trend we have been seeing lately as this is at least the third game in about a week that we’ve talked about heading our way that will contain cross-platform multiplayer with its PC/console brethren.
Minecraft and even games earlier than that have created a trend over the last year or so with games featuring the blocky style of visuals being released. The good thing about this trend is that most of the games released using this style of visual happen to end up being good and enjoyable games to play. Dogbyte Games has a new title heading our way soon that features this style of visuals called Blocky Roads.
There is nothing quite like driving a giant mechanized robotic suit equipped with a plethora of weaponry and raining down justice and destruction onto whatever your target happens to be at that moment in time. Unfortunately there isn’t a whole lot of games, let alone good ones, that allow us Android gamers to do that.
One of the features that Nvidia’s Shield was announced to have was the ability to stream PC games to it so you can play those game on your Shield. While the short term goal was local streaming from your own PC, the long term goal is to have streaming available no matter where you are as long as you have an internet connection. This would be through Nvidia’s GRID streaming service which we’ve talked about a few times already.
