News, Good deals - Fyra Frost

The Danish studio, Playdead had been rather discreet for a while, but it seems that things are activating again. We learned very recently that Playdead, like Remedy (Control) and Gen Design (The Last Guardian), had signed a contract with Epic Games Publishing, a new game publishing program, allowing them to benefit from the financial support of Epic Games. In the process, Playdead, whose Twitter account has been inactive since the summer of 2018, seems to have resumed...

It's been 10 years already since the original Nier Replicant was launched, and to celebrate it Square Enix is working on a remastered version that we will be able to play on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The Japanese company has published a teaser to announce this new version which is named NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139. Most of you will associate Nier Replicant to the recent success of NieR: Automata and you wouldn't be wrong since the latest is technically a sequel to...

Gears of War and turn-based strategy were two things that you could hardly ever see in the same sentence, but that will change once Gears Tactics is released. The new title in the Gears of War license will completely change the way you approach it because instead of being a shooting game like the previous ones, Gears Tactics is more similar to games like XCOM 2. In the game, you will command a squad of soldiers in fast-paced battles against the...

We can't wait to play Resident Evil 3 Remake when it's released on April 3. The new version of the classic in the Resident Evil series looks already quite good in the videos that have been revealed so far, but until the fans of Resident Evil don´t play it by themselves they won't be able to gauge if the new experience is as good as the previous one or not. Of course, the visuals are much better and there are...

Steam also is offering players the possibility of playing for free to the acclaimed city-builder Cities:...

When it was officially announced in November 2019, Half-Life: Alyx generated as much enthusiasm as discontent among the players. Many of them had been waiting for a new installment in the Half-Life series, some even for fifteen years, since Half-Life 2 was released in 2004. So, obviously, when it was announced that the game would be exclusively in VR not everyone liked it, which we can understand. Not all players have the necessary hardware, which represents a certain investment. Faced with...

When it comes to zombie-killing action Tripwire Interactive is a true eminence in the subject. The creators of Killing Floor 2 have managed to create a game that delivers all you would expect from a game in the genre, including plenty of enemies to kill, frenetic action, visceral gore, a unique blend of weaponry and, above all, a lot of fun. Horzine Biotech’s failed experiment was the origin of the Zeds, bloodthirsty zombie-like creatures that have expanded like a plague across Europe. The...

Sometimes it happens that things don´t really go as planned and you have to adapt to the new situation on the fly. That is pretty much what has happened with Torchlight Frontiers, now Torchlight III. The game was originally intended to be an MMORPG that would change the way players would experience the popular franchise. Torchlight and Torchlight II were both created by Runic Games, but when the studio closed Echtra Games took over the license and...

Since it was released ten years ago, Minecraft has grown to be one of the most popular video game licenses. The game has even surpassed the milestone of 170 million copies sold worldwide, raising it to the rank of the best-selling game of all time, even surpassing the unbeatable Tetris, which occupied the first step of the ranking for many years. Minecraft has become much more than a video game, it's a real phenomenon. Many versions and variations of the...

With the launch of Guns, Love, and Tentacles: The Marriage of Wainwright & Hammerlock a few days away, developer Gearbox has decided to let us know a bit more about their plans for Borderlands 3.

In case you missed it, Demon Slayer is probably one of the most popular manga series of 2019. It is even last year's best-selling manga of Shūeisha, one of the biggest publishing houses in Japan. Demon Slayer also received an adaptation to an animated series and a film based on it is planned for 2020. But Demon Slayer will also have its own video game adaptation. The announcement was made in Shōnen Jump magazine a short while ago, but aside from the...

When Riot launched Legends of Runeterra open beta a few weeks ago it seemed that everything was in place to deliver to the players a great experience, but as the collectible card game gets more popular some issues have started to appear. Card balance problems have been addressed already by tuning the performance of several cards that were either overused and too powerful or not interesting enough to fit in any deck. Champions like Hecarim and Kalista are two good...

Of course that allows you to experience plenty of fights against multiple enemies but Bandai Namco is expanding the content available in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot with a...

There are only a few days left before the release of Bleeding Edge. For this occasion, Ninja Theory has published the launch trailer of its upcoming third-person team-based shooting game, which reminisces Overwatch in some aspects of its gameplay. Like other trailers that we could watch before, this video puts an emphasis on the characters, but this is also the first video in which we can see them all. Indeed, until the beginning of the month the official website of the game displayed a thumbnail which was always...

With so many people all over the world staying at home due to the current situation any initiative that helps making it a bit more bearable is more than welcome, even if its original purpose wasn't exactly that.

We talked about the reveal and the story of the new character in Overwatch just yesterday, but Blizzard has followed up that information with another video where Overwatch Game Director Jeff Kaplan discusses Echo's abilities and background. As we expected, the new character seems to be quite particular and her skill set includes an ability that will shake the foundations of the current metagame in Blizzard's competitive shooter.  ...

The world of video games has been affected by the current situation which has caused the cancellation of many events. Not even sports are spared.

But if you like football there is something that may quench your thirst for sports. It turns out that Football Manager 2020 is currently free. This is not a...
