‘Deadly Premonition 2’ Available Today on Steam [Trailer]
If you were waiting on Thunderful Games to bring Deadly Premonition 2 to Steam, that day’s finally arrived. During the Future Games Show event earlier today, the game’s director, Swery, announced that the sequel to the cult favourite Deadly Premonition is available now on PC.
Acting as both a sequel and a prequel to Deadly Premonition, Deadly Premonition 2 follows Agent Davis and Agent Jones as they begin a new investigation into the Le Carré serial murders. Set in present-day Boston, the game’s storytelling will see you travel back in time to the town of Le Carré via the memories of former FBI agent Francis York Morgan. These flashbacks will allow you to step into the shoes of Special Agent York to unravel an intriguing and disturbing mystery.
The Steam version of Deadly Premonition 2 brings with it a number of technical improvements: Players can explore Boston and Le Carré in higher resolution, undertake their investigations with more fluidity thanks to reduced loading times and enjoy the improved overall performance.

Get a Taste of the Action-Packed Terror in the Demo for FPS Shooter ‘BLIGHTEN’ [Trailer]
For those itching for some throwback first-person shooter action, Blight Software has just had a demo released for their upcoming FPS BLIGHTEN. The demo sees you and your squad selected to eliminate the last rebels in the eastern wastes, only to have your slaughtered, and you trapped in a decaying research facility. And you’re not alone.
You’ll explore every room of the facility for resources and weapons in an effort to stay alive. Luckily, you’ll have an extensive arsenal of various firearms at your disposal, from shotguns to assault rifles.
You’ll need them in order to take down the various blight-ridden mutated horrors throughout the mega structure. As one would expect, you’ll need to scrounge for parts and ammo, so make every shot count.
Similar to what players experienced in the early PlayStation classic Alien Trilogy, BLIGHTEN sports hand-drawn enemy sprites and animation in a 3D retro world, creating a unique and dynamic atmosphere while still scratching that throwback itch.
It’s all wrapped up in a dark narrative, where an unseen evil lurks in the shadows of the facility, shaping the horrors around you as you descend deeper into the facility. As you navigate this industrial nightmare, every Blightened creature slain is a grim reminder to what you’ve lost — and the things you’re fighting for.
Look for BLIGHTEN later this year on Steam.
