Horror saves Summer Game Fest with exciting announcements!

Depending on what you were looking for, Summer Game Fest kind of disappointed this year, with some games people have already heard about and no new excitement… then Horror showed up! SEGA, back on Alien Day (April 26th), had a teaser trailer up that made fans excited for the long-awaited sequel to Alien: Isolation, and today they confirmed and did not disappoint! Alien: Isolation 2 will take players to a remote, storm-ravaged colony world. Players will endure the elements as they navigate the planet’s surface and explore the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station. It’s a new hunting ground for the Alien, forcing players to improvise and develop new tools, techniques, and tactics to survive the deadly game of cat-and-mouse. Alien: Isolation 2 will be coming out for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. As more information comes, you’ll hear it from me! Next up, CAPCOM announced the remake of the fan favorite

Spirit Halloween Drops a Splatter-Ready ‘Terrifier’ Collection for Summerween

Move over, barbecues and neon pool noodles. The hottest trend of the sunny season doesn’t involve matching family swimsuits or artisanal popsicles. It is officially Summerween, and the spooky subculture is real. What started as a holiday gag in a Disney Channel cartoon (Gravity Falls) has morphed into a full-blown consumer phenomenon. As of May 2026, the hashtag #summerween has racked up over 210,000 posts on Instagram alone. Gen Z and millennial horror fans have collectively decided that waiting until October for monsters and mayhem is an outdated concept. Seizing the blood-soaked moment, seasonal retail juggernaut Spirit Halloween is officially kicking off the summer season by dropping a highly anticipated, limited-time Terrifier Summerween collection. Launching today at 1:00 PM ET, the exclusive capsule merges the sun-drenched vibes of a beach resort with the absolute, unhinged depravity of America’s favorite mute slasher, Art the Clown. The Splash-Zone Essentials If your ideal summer aesthetic leans less “tropical paradise” and more “grindhouse crime

Game Review: ‘FORENSIC – M.E. Protocol’

Back in the early 2000s, CSI was insanely popular, as seen with almost every major city in the U.S. being represented in its own series. There were games based on the show, and they were…interesting. But now, fans of forensic science can look forward to a goofy indie game I was given to try by K148 Game Studio and JanduSoft titled FORENSIC – M.E. Protocol. In FORENSIC – M.E. Protocol, you take on the role of a cop that’s part of the forensics team, and it’s your job to investigate the scene of suspected crimes to determine if a crime was committed or not. Now, onto the game itself! The controls for this game will take some time to get used to, as it’s quite… unique. Unfortunately, there’s no real tutorial telling you how to use the controls, or even how to properly use some of the equipment you’re using in the game. There is a training level, but that

An Unplayable Mess: ‘Necrophosis: Full Consciousness’

What happens when Lovecraft meets Beksiński? You get Necrophosis: Full Consciousness. That alone should be exciting news. Unfortunately, the copy I got for the Xbox is, as the title says, an unplayable mess. I was only able to get to the second map in the game, where I’m softlocked by a puzzle. At the time of writing this, when I reported the game-crashing bug, I was told that it’s just me and that the game is fine. I call BS. I don’t know if it’s just for the Xbox that this bug happened, or if the other console ports of this game have this issue. I know the good ol’ adage of turning it off and on again is running through some of your minds, and I did just that. I did a hard restart of the game, and even restarted the main game’s story. The game break took a strange turn. Instead of restarting me at the start of

Checking out the Bermuda Triangle Gaming Glasses by GUNNAR

Gunnar has once again teamed up with Alienware to take players’ gaming experiences and comfort out of this world! For those not familiar with our friends at Gunnar, they specialize in making glasses that have anti-blue light tech. Screens give off blue light that’s invisible to the eyes but can cause strain and fatigue for them. Gunnar’s glasses help block this light to allow those who look at screens all day to work in comfort. Gunnar’s glasses are used by pro e-sport players, gamers, the military, and even animators at Dreamworks. The Alienware Burmuda Triangle glasses are a wraparound shield lens that’s befitting the aesthetics of Alienware.

Game Review: ‘WILL: Follow the Light’

When it comes to walking sims, they pretty much all fall victim to monotony. The stories tend to always be the same, little else is going on, and most of the games copy one another. Tomorrowhead Studio’s WILL: Follow the Light may have fallen into this, BUT, have done it a little differently. WILL: Follow the Light follows Will, a lighthouse keeper who is searching for his son after a landslide took out most of their hometown. After learning that his estranged father took his son out to sea to fish during the disaster, Will sets sail in search of them, where he confronts the loss of his wife, his childhood, and his fears of turning into his father. Now, onto the game itself! When it comes to the controls, it’s mainly limited, but quick to learn, like most walking sims. I really enjoyed the game’s soundtrack, but I wish more of it played during the game, as it seems
