A good horror game is always hard to say no to, and based on what we’ve seen of A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead so far, that’s certainly what it’s looking like it’s going to deliver. Based on the Quiet Place movies, developer Stormind Games and publisher Saber Interactive’s upcoming first person horror title has made quite a compelling case for itself with each of its showings, and has actually managed to generate a fair bit of buzz in the lead-up to its release. As such, as we count the days down to its launch on October 17, here, we’re going to go over a few key tidbits that you should know before you dive into A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead.

In the sea of AAA games that require countless hours of your time, it’s a breath of fresh air to encounter a linear, focused, narrative-driven AA game, and that’s exactly what Bandai Namco and developer Reflector Entertainment’s upcoming “Unknown 9: Awakening” is delivering. First announced some time ago, the action-adventure title is now gearing up for its release, and here we’ll discuss some essential details to help you prepare for what the game has to offer.

Initially this year, the production of Star Wars: The Acolyte turned out to be a pricey misstep for Disney, as they invested an enormous $230 million into the Disney+ series that was later swiftly cancelled due to inadequate viewership. Furthermore, the show sparked disagreement among several fans, which likely contributed to its low audience figures. From its announcement, to its premiere, to its termination, the Star Wars series has been shrouded in controversy, and now those involved are starting to speak out about their experiences.

Since its debut in 2007, the Assassin’s Creed series by Ubisoft has become one of their flagship titles, garnering immense popularity. However, with an abundance of releases within such a short period, some argue that the series has experienced a decline from its heyday, which many believe peaked around 2010 with games like Assassin’s Creed 2, Brotherhood, and Black Flag. While modern Assassin’s Creed games are generally well-received, there’s a consensus that the series has lost some of its initial shine due to the sheer number of games produced in such a short timeframe. In its 17-year history, there have been 14 mainline Assassin’s Creed games and 17 spin-offs, making it one of the most prolific series compared to others like Call of Duty or FIFA.

Players of Throne and Liberty have been notified by developer NCSoft that they might be running an outdated version of the game, specifically the Open Beta version, instead of the current live, updated one. Fortunately, this seems to only affect PS5 users, as those on PC, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X shouldn’t worry. However, for those on PS5, there’s no need to fret as there’s an easy fix available.

As a devoted fan, I must admit that Silent Hill 2 holds a special place in my heart as an extraordinary survival horror masterpiece. Over the years, numerous games have attempted to mimic its success, yet none have come close to matching its unparalleled storytelling prowess. So, when Konami revealed their plans for a remake in collaboration with Bloober Team – a studio renowned for delivering technically proficient but somewhat mediocre horror experiences – I found myself feeling uneasy.
