Weird West Review
In this alternate universe, the West was won by trying a bunch of ideas so crazy they just might work… and if they don’t, hitting the quick-load button to revert to an earlier save and trying something even crazier until you pull it off. Thanks to that freedom to experiment with its world as you explore, Weird West is one of those games that feels like a stealth and combat playground even as it tells five mostly serious, well-written stories with interesting decisions throughout and a thoughtful conclusion. And with so much ground to cover and replayability to investigate, it’s well worth putting up with some quirks and underwhelming loot. What ties Weird West’s plot together is a group of shadowy figures using a magical brand to force your character’s consciousness into the bodies of various unsuspecting people. It’s a clever play on the way so many games have us take control of a character who already exists in that world but still need to bring us up to speed on their identity: h...
Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader – How Did it Take This Long to Get a Warhammer CRPG?
It’s truly bizarre that across the nearly 30 years of Warhammer video games, we haven’t had a single one that attempted to channel the tabletop Warhammer experience by utilizing the genre that feels best suited to do so: CRPGs. But that’s all about to change, as Pathfinder developer Owlcats has been cooking up something to fill this void. During an extensive hands-off demo of Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader, I checked out its extremely chunky turn-based combat system, drowned in its plethora of dialogue options and social skill checks, and nodded approvingly at its lovingly faithful depiction of Warhammer’s morbid universe. While it’s still very early, so far this CRPG is shaping up to be everything I’ve wanted from a Warhammer video game. If you’ve ever played (or even glanced at) a game of Warhammer 40K, then you probably know it’s designed for a hyper-specific kind of nerd who loves calculations, large-scale drama, and an incredibly detailed world one could easily get lost in.

Dragon Prince fans, rejoice! Netflix has given the creative team at Wonderstorm the greenlight to produce four more seasons of the animated epic, which will allow the series to complete its saga at the end of Season 7. "We feel amazingly grateful to the fans and community," co-creator Aaron Ehasz told fans during The Dragon Prince Comic-Con@Home panel. Back in 2019, Ehasz and fellow co-creator Justin Richmond laid out their seven-season plan for The Dragon Prince to a crowd of eager fans at San Diego Comic-Con. Now, with Seasons 4, 5, 6, and 7 a go at Netflix, fans can rest assured knowing they're going to get a complete story. While no release date for Season 4 (Book 4) has been revealed, the title of the upcoming season will be called "Earth." For a look at how the cast and crew reacted to the exciting Season 4 (and beyond!) renewal announcement, watch the heartwarming clip from their panel below: [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/07/24/netflixs-the-dragon-prince-comic-con-home-season-4-reveal-clip"]
The Wonderstorm office in Los Angeles.[/caption] Richmond, who has a gaming background as the director of Uncharted 3, says Wonderstorm is "doing something very rare. We have teams that are building this whole universe together but they're working on very different products. The goal is to get to the point where the whole experience with one of our future worlds is literally like, 'I'm watching a show, I'm playing a game.' It's all one experience. I get linear content and non-linear game content all from Wonderstorm all in one place." So basically, the next Wonderstorm IP you experience could be in the form of an animated series, video game, or a book. And as far as The Dragon Prince goes, Wonderstorm is expanding the franchise's footprint by partnering with Dark Horse Comics on a new hardcover art book (debuting on August 18), plus a graphic novel from Scholastic, titled "Through the Moon," which is currently available for pre-order and will be released on October 6.

Wonderstorm Is Working on More Than Dragon Prince... Like Video Games!
Wonderstorm, co-founded by Justin Richmond, Aaron Ehasz, and Justin Santistevan, is about so much more than just making The Dragon Prince on Netflix. Before the global pandemic began, IGN was invited on a tour of Wonderstorm's offices in Los Angeles. And to our surprise, we walked into a room full of talented animators, coders, and designers working on new scripted series and even video games! And while we can't reveal any of the details surrounding the titles we saw in production, it was thrilling to witness so many talented people working on a variety of projects in various stages of development. We asked the founders what Wonderstorm would like to be known for as their company continues to grow. "We're trying to be a special place where artists and writers and programmers can be part of visionary teams that are building something they believe in and are proud of," Ehasz told IGN. The founders went on to say that Wonderstorm is striving to be a "double-threat media studio" that's working on shows and video games simultaneously.
