Per Gematsu, Koch Media and Bloober Team have joined forces to give physical media junkies some love with The Medium and Observer: System Redux. While dates haven’t been announced for these physical versions, Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno states that the team is “very excited” to be able to bring about these releases. “It’s most important to us to listen to our fans and they did ask for a box release of our award-winning horror games.”

In turn, Koch Media CEO Dr. Klemens Kundratitz stated in a press release that, “[Koch Media] are pleased to welcome Bloober Team as an exciting new publishing partner and will be thrilled to work with them on their growing game portfolio globally. The Medium as well as the award-winning Observer: System Redux. Both titles fit perfectly to our diversified games lineup.”

An enhanced remake of the original Observer starring Rutger Hauer, Observer: System Redux (which we reviewed here) hit PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC back in November of last year. Meanwhile, The Medium (which we also reviewed) launched earlier this year for PC and the Xbox Series to critical and commercial success.

‘Dead Island 2’ Arrives on Steam With Hefty Discount [Trailer]

The wait is over for Steam users looking to stomp around Los Angeles busting zombie heads in Deep Silver and Dambuster’s Dead Island 2. The multimillion-selling follow-up to the 2011 original is now available on Steam, as well as the title’s two DLCs, including the recently-released “SoLA”. Deep Silver has marked the occasion with a new launch trailer.

In fact, Deep Silver has sweetened the deal with a 50% off sale for Dead Island 2 on Steam that’s on until April 29. That sale also applies to the title’s expansion packs and DLCs.

Just in case you missed it the first time around, Dead Island 2 centres around a deadly virus that’s spreading across Los Angeles, turning its inhabitants into ravenous zombies. The city is in quarantine and the military have retreated. Bitten, infected, but more than just immune, you learn to harness the zombie inside of you.

Known as Slayers, you (and if you choose, up to three players in co-op mode) must embark on an epic pulp journey across a plethora of well-known locations such as Beverly Hills, Venice Beach and Santa Monica to uncover the truth behind the outbreak and who or what they are turned into.

Dead Island 2 is also available on PC via the Epic Games Store, Xbox One, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
