John Noble Discusses His Hope For 'Sleepy Hollow' Season 3 & His Time On 'Fringe'

The only isometric title on this list, Hades ditches platforming for a greater focus on visceral combat. The new title from Supergiant Games also falls firmly in the rogue-like camp, expecting players to make multiple runs. Despite these differences, Hades and Hollow Knight do actually have quite a lot in common. Both titles test their players against increasingly chaotic 2D battlegrounds, with evolving enemies and tactics. Likewise, both games use NPCs as both vendors and story-tellers, allowing the player to expand their understanding of the world along with their ski

Created by Australian developer Team Cherry, Hollowknightportal.com Hollow Knight is a 2D Metroidvania action-adventure game that tells the story of an insectoid Knight that's set out to uncover the secrets of a long-abandoned underground insect kingdom called Hallownest. Team Cherry combined elements of games like Super Metroid, Celeste, and Dark Souls to create this challenging but rewarding experience where players must make there way into the depths of Hallownest, discover new regions, defeat bosses, and learn how to perfectly execute attacks and traver

You can fight monsters normally in turn-based combat with button specific commands akin to Super Mario RPG , or monsters can be talked down similar to the mechanic found in Shin Megami Tensei . It borrows from a lot of games while still feeling like its own original th

When Telltale Games released the critically acclaimed first season of Telltale's The Walking Dead back in 2012, the video game landscape was changed forever. And while subsequent seasons never quite reached the heights of the first one, it didn't feel any less devastating when Telltale Games closed in 2018 , halfway through the development of Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season . Luckily, the season was later saved by publisher Skybound, and as a celebration of the series, lead to the development and release of a complete collection called The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Seri

The Hollow Knight subreddit poured out support and appreciation for Goldman and Team Cherry. The news of his passing saddened many, but said that in honor of him they would be thinking of Goldman every time they encountered Seth in game. Wish gran

Both of the Ori games have been particularly praised for their beautiful artwork and atmospheric audio. While the tone of the games might not be quite as dark as Hollow Knight 's, Ori's forest-home possess a melancholy, haunting beauty. The various twisted creatures that Ori must contend against are more classic Halloween fare. Some particular standouts are Shriek the insane, half-petrified owl, and Mora the spore-corrupted spider qu

Yoku's Island Express is a Metroidvania pinball adventure. Now, that’s a new genre. It sounds weird but it worked so well. It also stars a bunch of bugs, but unlike Hollow Knight , it’s a lot more upbeat. This may be the best diversion to play immediately after finishing that game. Try not to smile when playing

Hollow Knight brings to life the bug's-eye view of a foreboding, lush world illuminated by rich atmospheric lighting. The shadow-insect hybrid player character named Knight must run, jump, and fly through the Metroid -esque levels while fighting hordes of other stylized foes. In fact, a sword-and-board (pin-and-coin?) Silksong bug warrior will be one of four bosses, named...S

Those on PS4 have two free PS Plus games to look forward to in November, with both Middle-earth: Shadow of War and Hollow Knight: Voidheart Edition joining the lineup. These games will be available to claim for free from November 3 to November 30, and thanks to PS5's backward compatibility with PS4 , they will be playable on the new console as w

So, since the sequel, Hollow Knight: Silksong , probably won't be coming out this year, here are some games to play in the meantime. They all have a common theme to Hollow Knight whether they are Metroidvanias, indie games, have great art, or star bugs. Dark Souls is a somewhat obvious, bonus p

Like Hollow Knight , Guacamelee has a huge focus on combat. You will explore the interconnected world like any Metroidvania i.e. collect new powers to explore new paths, get new health upgrades, and so forth. What makes it different is the wrestling focused in combat with tons of moves to perform and master. The big plus is that it offers co-op. Both this and the sequel are worth checking

Last month, Sony surprised PlayStation Plus subscribers with a bonus PSVR game on top of the standard two PS4 games, a first for the subscription service in some time. Given that it was described as a bonus game, Sony made the point that fans shouldn't expect this to be a regular occurrence, only offering Shadow of the Colossus and Sonic Forces for the month of March. While Sony might begin adding PS5 games to the rotation once the new console release later this year, for now, fingers crossed that PSVR bonus games start to appear a little more frequen
