Soulslike ‘Thymesia’ Set For August 9 Release on PC, Consoles [Trailer]
After the announced delay last year, OverBorder Studio and publisher Team 17 have announced that their upcoming action RPG Thymesia has locked in a release date of August 9 for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series. In addition, ahead of Thymesia’s release on Steam, users can check out a new time-limited demo for the game, as well as the new release date trailer, courtesy of IGN.
As part of the “Going Rogue Festival” on Steam, the demo is now live, and will be available for PC users to check out until May 9th.
Thymesia tells the story of a kingdom that discovers there’s a price to pay for dabbling in alchemy. The resulting attempt to stop its use has resulted in the kingdom becoming swarmed with monsters. The key to understanding and stopping all of this is in Corvus’ hands, but he has lost his memory. The truth can only be found within Corvus’ memories, but every time he dives back in, he only finds more secrets. In order to stop the monsters, Corvus must harness the power of the plague from boss monsters in his quest, granting him new abilities.
Buckshot Roulette creator Mike Klubnika and co-developer GDeavid’s “friendslop” collection of violent party games in Machine Party is out now on Steam, where you and your friends can finally compete in glorious gory fun. As an added incentive, Machine Party is available with a limited-time 15% launch discount until August 13.
Gather 2 to 4 friends, strap in, and prove your life is worth more than theirs in this collection of borderline illegal and extraordinarily violent party games. Featurng an industrial soundtrack composed by Alex Peipman, Machine Party takes classic party game formats and gives them deadly twists, turning friendly competition into something far less friendly, but always hilarious. Across 15 unique minigames set within the Klubnika universe, players will jump between split-second reflex challenges, calculated decision-making, and social situations where trust doesn’t last long and betrayal is always an option.
Each minigame throws players into increasingly absurd and dangerous challenges where cooperation, competition, and betrayal are all viable strategies. No matter how you play, or how devious you are at screwing over your friends, survival is never guaranteed. For more absurdity, you’re able to customize your test subject with a variety of cosmetics.
