Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater
Producers Noriaki Okamura and Yuji Korekado revealed more information about the Snake Vs. Monkey and Snake Vs. Bomberman game modes coming to Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater. The latter brings a new in-house collaboration with the Bomberman franchise delivering a bombastic experience by introducing gameplay mechanics from the Bomberman series to the Xbox Series X|S version of the game. Fox Hunt Director Yu Sahara gave viewers a concept of the brand-new online multiplayer mode, character renders and early gameplay footage. Fox Hunt, a completely original mode, broadens the franchise's core stealth element where players must utilize their environments to camouflage and evade opposing players.
Silent Hill f & Silent Hill
A developer diary with Silent Hill producer Motoi Okamoto, scriptwriter Ryukishi07, and members of NeoBards Entertainment gave players an in-depth look at the production of Silent Hill f – a chilling new entry in the psychological horror franchise. Silent Hill f brings the franchise closer to one of its many core pillars by focusing on Japanese horror elements. Plus, one of the bookends of the KONAMI PRESS START showcase included a tease at a Silent Hill remake project that is currently in development.
Suikoden Star Leap
Suikoden Star Leap will be available globally to PC via Steam alongside iOS and Android mobile devices. A new role-playing adventure set in the world of Suikoden, Suikoden Star Leap takes place a few years before the events of Suikoden I, but a couple years after Suikoden V. The game's art style takes inspiration from 2D pixel character designs with a mix of 3D backgrounds. Suikoden Star Leap is available to wishlist on Steam starting later today.
Edens Zero
The demo for Edens Zero was released today, as players can wield the full power of the Ether Gear on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, and Steam ahead of the game's full release July 15. Plus, saved data from the demo can be carried over to the full game.
Darwin's Paradox
A new action-adventure platformer is brewing at Paris-based ZDT Studio titled Darwin's Paradox! French developers Mikael Tanguy, Gilles Aujard, and Romuald Capron introduce the game's plot and core gameplay mechanics. Players take on the role of a cunning octopus called Darwin who has been ripped from his ocean home and flung into a menacing alien-like world above the waves. All the super-natural powers an octopus poses are on full display in Darwin's Paradox! – from suction-cupped arms to ink shooting. Darwin's Paradox! is available to wishlist now with more news coming in a future announcement.
Nintendo Switch 2 Updates
Survival Kids, a new multiplayer co-op survival adventure, released last week as a Nintendo Switch 2-exclusive launch title, taking full advantage of the platform's GameShare console linking and GameChat built-in microphone features.
