‘Daymare: 1998’ Devs Release Brief Clip of The Melting Man
Summer is almost over, but things look to be shaping up properly with Invader Studios and their send-up to Resident Evil 2 in Daymare: 1998. The game is still scheduled for release this summer, but in the meantime, the devs have released another video from the game. The brief 20 second clip introduces us to The Melting Man, presumably one of the many enemies you’ll be facing.
A holdover from the “early days of development”, the Melting Man is a result of what happens when you get caught in the gas in the solarium. Definitely reminiscent of Rick Baker’s work in The Incredible Melting Man. Or maybe it’s Emil from Robocop? Regardless of the inspiration, this looks to be something you wouldn’t want to meet in an abandoned police station.
Apart from Steam, Daymare: 1998 will be headed to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One after the PC release.

Get a Glimpse of the Boss Encounters with the New Trailer for ‘The Relic: First Guardian’ [Watch]
With two weeks to go until its launch, Project Cloud Games and Perp Games have given players a slice of the punishing and relentless bosses known as Brutals that players will face off against in The Relic: First Guardian. With fast-paced combat, 80 Brutals stand in your way of restoring the once peaceful land of Arsilthus to its glory.
Also featured in the trailer are glimpses of the many weapons and armour sets ready to be discovered in the game’s semi-open world, with plenty of lore attached to each piece you discover. Coupled with passive effects picked up along the way, these skill and weapon combos will directly alter your combat style to fit your flow.
The Relic: First Guardian takes place on the fictitious continent of Arsiltus. You are the First Guardian, charged with embarking on a heroic adventure to save the world. The once-prosperous Arsiltus was swallowed up by the void created by the destruction of the great relic and transformed into the land of death. Now your mission is to find the pieces of the broken great relic and close the void.
Look for The Relic: First Guardian on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam on July 31, while versions for the Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch 2 are expected later this year. Digital pre-orders are open now on PlayStation 5, where you can pick up the game ahead of its launch and claim The Night of Unextinguished Flame bonus pack at no extra cost. This exclusive day-one bundle equips you for the trials ahead with an additional brutal dungeon to conquer, a unique relic, and a legendary exclusive weapon and armour set.
