From Deathverse and Five Nights at Freddy’s to a new Star Ocean and Little Devil Inside, we’ve rounded up all the best trailers and news in one spot.
The latest Sony State of Play had plenty of indie game trailers and updates on titles we’ve been hearing about for years, but few updates on the big PS5 games we’re expecting this holiday season. The biggest news is a trailer for the first Bugsnax DLC, which brings bigger bugs to the island in early 2022 for the appealing price of absolutely free. A new Star Ocean game was revealed (Star Ocean: The Divine Force), which will come exclusively to PS5 (and PS4) sometime in 2022. And we got our first look at King of Fighters XV, the first new game in the storied franchise in five years – and though it’s not coming until February 2022, a beta test will give players the chance to try it out for a late November weekend. But we especially missed updates on bigger upcoming titles, which we thought could include Call of Duty: Vanguard, Battlefield 2042, Stray, Final Fantasy 14: Endwalker expansion or maybe even GTA 5 on PS5. Still, if you were eager for deeper looks at upcoming indies like Little Devil Inside, Five Nights at Freddy’s Security Breach, or other newly-announced indies, check out the trailers below. Deathverse: Let It Die is the latest “survival battle arena” title to come out in recent years, with this one set in a dystopian future hundreds of years after the events in Grasshopper Manufacture’s Let It Die. In addition to traditional PvPvE combat, the game will feature various customization options as you climb the leaderboards in various matches. The game is set for a 2022 release, but we’ll let you know more when we hear anything else. We Are OFK is a new five-part visual novel-esque game featuring four 20-somethings trying to break into the music industry in Los Angeles while falling in love, breaking up, and generally trying to make it in the world. Each part will culminate with the making of an interactive music video for one of the virtual band’s singles, and while we can’t say for sure how interesting the music will end up being, at least it isn’t another battle royale that no one needs or wants.
