Harvest Moon is back and this time it is heading to several platforms for the first time: Wii U, PC, iOS, and Android. This is the second title to be produced away from Marvelous Entertainment. Natsume will be Developing the iOS and Android versions separately from the Wii U and PC.

During E3 2015, I had the chance to sit down and talk to Alan Dabiri, Technical Director, and Phill Gonzales, Senior Artist, about Heroes of the Storm and the upcoming Eternal Conflict patch. We were able to talk about the patch in more detail, the upcoming Heroes, and then a variety of topics on the state of the game. 

Guitar Hero is making a comeback this year with Guitar Hero Live from Developer FreeStyle Games. I find it a bit strange that the same year Rock Band is making a comeback, so is Guitar Hero. Did these companies get together and plan out when Rhythm based music games would make a comeback?

The original King’s Quest series is one of PC gamings finest moments. From its earliest entry in 1984 to the final game in 1998, King’s Quest was a magical Adventure Game series. The time has finally come to brush the dust off this series and bring it to life once more.

Warner Bros Interactive and Traveller’s Tales are teaming up to bring, what they call, the first true Toys to Life game in Lego Dimensions.

In October of 2009, a new Action RPG was released by Runic Games called Torchlight. It was a fan favorite but lacked a multiplayer component. Instead of just patching in multiplayer, work began on Torchlight II. On September 20, 2012, the Windows version of Torchlight II was finally released.

Skylanders are back and this time they are going on Land, in the Air, and under the Sea in vehicles. With Vicarious Visions at the helm of development this year, they feel like this inclusion of vehicles is one of the biggest innovations yet in the Toys to Life genre.
