A roguelike-like top-down space shooter citing the likes of Halo games and Far Cry 3 as inspirations for its combat is a game of interest, so how pleasant that Galak-Z: The Dimensional is coming to another platform.

No Time to Explain developer Tiny Build Games has announced JetGetters, a multiplayer fighter jet game with an emphasis on bailing out.

The thrills, spills, and intricate mazes of tower defense are coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in Defense Grid 2, publisher 505 Games has announced.

It's still on for PC, Mac, and Linux editions this year too, of course.
Twitch streaming will finally launch on Xbox One next Tuesday, with the launch of an update which makes the Twitch app actually useful. Microsoft has whipped together a video demonstrating exactly how it'll all work, from setting up your own stream to watching your chums. You know: streaming.

Dracula's sullen son Alucard stars in the first DLC for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, Konami announced today. Titled 'Revelations,' the add-on goes down a little before the main game, discovering what Alucard was up to and playing with his own vampiric powers.

It's a downloadable beat 'em up, starring the dashing gentleman and his sidekick recreating their adventures on stage.
