Thankfully this year he also had a game to show: Split Fiction, a new co-op action adventure. Insert your commentary about generative AI here. Both worlds seem… a bit cliche? But perhaps that’s intentional given that these worlds are, in the fiction, created by newbie writers. Perhaps they will grow and learn and become better at worldbuilding by the end of the game. Yes, I’m giving it too much credit....
Intergalactic has apparently been in development since 2020 and has a soundtrack by Atticus Ross. Maybe that means it’s set in a hole. I like the appearance of recognisable brands in the trailer above - Porsche, Adidas, Sony of course. I’m a simple animal. I like less, of course, that this is currently only coming to PlayStation 5.

Katana you believe it Here’s one I didn’t see coming: a new Onimusha game. Maybe 2006, if you rule out the Unity surfing app sim? That was true of the first one, anyway. Later instalments took… interesting liberties. Onimusha 3 had Jean Reno in it for some reason. One thing they all share is more of a combat focus than the Resis. You don’t need to find ammo for a katana, after all....
Now, thanks to The Geoff Awards, that’s changed! Well, sort of - Crimson Desert is out sometime in late 2025. If you’re unfamiliar with the game, you play as Kliff who explores the open world of Pywel. In said open world, you battle goblins and medieval people. Do some rock climbing, cooking, maybe a puzzle. Apparently there are “aerial Abysses” that promise “endless discovery”. What do I think? Huh, that actually sounds quite good - I could do with more middling silliness....
Pity the ghosts in this one Pac-Manis doing a Prince Of Persia: Warrior Within, everybody. Thats to say, the Bandai Namco series is doing one of those dark, edgy iterations. Its called Shadow Labyrinth, its out in 2025, and its a 2D hack-and-slash with gruesome monster designs. But none so gruesome as Pac-Man, who can transform into a huge champing black hole. Wakkawakkawakkawould you play this? You dont seem to control Pac-Man in Shadow Labyrinth....
Like its predecessor, this ones a party-based CRPG with tactical combat, featuring single player and online co-op. Warning: it has shiny rock people in it, the worst videogame enemy. Solasta IIremains true to its promise to deliver gameplay based on the world’s most popular TTRPG. But that’s not all Solasta II will have to offer. The Geoffening has begun!

Turns out that unmistakable hint was mistakable. His fiery Phoenix Gate stage also comes included. Some of his attacks look frighteningly fast. He’s getting added to the game next week, December 16th. Although, now that I look at Clive’s hair, there is something distinctly Miguelish about him. Maybe I can dress him up?
Does it feel pain? Now, he’s getting into Gundams, though it looks like small boys are still a feature. Epic Games Publishing have just unveiled Ueda and genDESIGN’s latest creation - Project: Robot. Find a trailer below. Look, I’m struggling to phrase this elegantly and draw proper conclusions because I’m very tired. It’s 3am here. It could be just the credits, but perhaps there’s a synopsis hidden away in there....
We already have that at home. It’s like a martial art, but all you get to kick is some…ball. I’ll let you daredevil centre-forwards be the judge of that claim. You’re likely wondering when we’re going to dig into the sci-fi stuff. Football, for me, has historically been the game bullies play. As an adult I associate it with grown men acting like bellowing toddlers in the street. And at home: there’s a sorrycorrelationbetween England losing a match and domestic violence....
There are no gods here. There are only monsters. CD Projekt have screened the first trailer forThe Witcher 4, the next instalment in their fantasy monster-slaying series. Its another single player open world RPG, andThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunts Ciri is the protagonist. We’re kicking off a brand-new Witcher saga, this time with Ciri as the heart of the story! he said in the press release. For clarity, The Witcher 4 is the project previously codenamed Polaris....
Here’s the trailer. And here’s some backstory, care ofthe just-launched Steam page. Experience the Quiet Apocalypse as survivors in the northern industrial city of Harmont and its vast environs. How will you choose to survive? I’m not sure whether this means there are unique co-op mechanics. If my co-op partner dies, can I eat them and knit their entrails into a scarf? And then there are the new urban areas....
There’s a trailer below. Now that’s a stylish trailer. Is this a Yakuza game? I have no idea, although I’d guess not given it’s only got a codename for now. Smashing goons with fists and bottles sure seems like a Yakuza activity, however. The Geoffening has begun!
