‘Nioh’ Slices its Way to PC This November

Published

PC fans longing for a port of Koei Tecmo’s samurai demon-slaying RPG Nioh have had their prayers answered, as the publisher announced that the former PlayStation 4 exclusive will be released on PC November 7th. Dubbed the “Complete Edition”, the game will arrive with the trio of add-on packs, a consistent 60fps frame rate referred to as “Action Mode” by Tecmo, and a “Movie Mode”, which is “a cinematic option that can expand the display resolution to 4K.”

The game, which has been lauded for its action as well as its notorious difficulty, will also feature a a new item called the Dharmachakra Kabuto helmet in celebration of the Valve release.

In addition, the specs for the game were also released, and as expected, it doesn’t come cheap. Unexpected, however, is the recommended requirement of 100GB HD space. Seriously?! I know my rig’s due for an upgrade, but this is pushing it. I guess if you’re looking to play the game in Movie Mode, it’s one of the sacrifices you’ll have to make.

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

Published

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.

This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.

You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!

In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?

“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.

“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”

Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
