‘Metro Exodus’ Delayed to 2019, ‘Darksiders 3’ to Follow Suit
Fans of the Metro series will have to wait until next year to get their paws on the upcoming third installment of the series. In fact, several of THQ Nordic’s titles have received a release date push, including Darksiders 3.
In a press release by THQ Nordic that focuses on sales and upcoming games from Koch Media, which THQ Nordic acquired last year (along with Koch’s video game publishing arm, Deep Silver), Metro Exodus has now had its release date pushed to Q1 2019. Furthermore, Deep Silver’s “next key releases”, the action-RPG Biomutant and Darksiders 3, “are still under evaluation for setting a release date”. Translation: Potential release date shuffling. This all kind of makes sense, given that Darksiders 3 will be skipping E3 this year.
Metro Exodus was announced during E3 2017 with a trailer that showed series protagonist Artyom squaring off against a mutated rat beast. A follow-up trailer was released during The Video game Awards this past December. The series is based off of a series of novels by Dmitry Glukhovsky, where Earth has been devastated by nuclear war. The first game, Metro 2033, was released back in 2010. The sequel, Metro: Last Light, was released back in 2013.
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.
