It was only a matter of time before Xbox fans got the call that PlayStation and Nintendo Switch had already received regarding Red Hook Studios’ Darkest Dungeon II. The dark fantasy turn-based tactics RPG will indeed arrive on July 15 for Xbox Series and Xbox One owners, which is the same day that PlayStation and Switch fans will be getting their version of the game.

As with the other releases, the Xbox Series version of Darkest Dungeon II will include all current updates and DLC. Players can now pre-order the game from the Microsoft Store, with a launch discount of 15%. You can also spring for the Oblivion Edition of Darkest Dungeon II, which includes the base game and the DLC, The Binding Blade.

On top of all of that, Red Hook Studios will be bringing a major new campaign game mode to Darkest Dungeon II in the form of “Kingdoms”, a free content update slated to arrive later this year. With Kingdoms, this new mode challenges players in a desperate race against the clock to find and defeat a monstrous threat before it overwhelms and destroys the Kingdom.

Darkest Dungeon II is currently available now on the Epic Games Store and Steam. And check out Aaron’s review of Darkest Dungeon II, if you’re still undecided.

Bloody Roguelike Zombie Survival Game ‘Ed-0: Zombie Uprising’ to Get Physical PS5 Release October 10th [Trailer]

After receiving a digital release last July on Steam, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series, Lancarse and publisher D3 PUBLISHER have announced that a physical version of their zombie survival roguelike action title Ed-0: Zombie Uprising will be coming October 10 to the PlayStation 5, courtesy of Aksys Games. The announcement is accompanied by a rather humourous trailer, which also features plenty of plasma and zombie smashing. Pre-orders are now available via the Aksys Games store.

In case you haven’t heard of the game, Ed-0: Zombie Uprising takes place in an alternate 1854, in a fictional Edo-era Japan. Mysterious ships have made landfall on the island, bringing with them a zombie plague that quickly infects the island. A select few have managed to maintain their humanity through their immunity to the outbreak. It’s up to these three “Zom-beings” to fight back against the plague, and bring peace back to their homeland.

Players can select from either a samurai, sumo wrestler or ninja to take on the hordes. Ed-0: Zombie Uprising includes various undead enemies, ranging from “newly interpreted” Japanese zombies to foreign invaders born after the “Zombie Industrial Revolution.” Players will unlock more as they play (and succeed) with an increasing number of possibilities to customize builds to their liking—with the option to bump up the level of difficulty to test one’s capability.

If you’re content with getting it digitally, Ed-0: Zombie Uprising is currently available with a hefty 75% discount on Steam during the Steam Summer Sale until July 11.
