Thymesia Looks Like A Promising Action RPG, And It's Coming To PC This Year
/ Carlos Hernandez
Taiwan-based indie developer OverBorder is currently working on Thymesia, an action RPG that if you’re into games like Dark Souls, Mortal Shell, or even Bloodborne, you should keep an eye on this one as it’s coming to PC this year.
Have a look at the game in action below.
Thymesia is currently in development by a 7-man team over at OverBorder, and just recently found a publishing partner - Team17. Based on the studios Youtube channel, the folk at OverBorder have been working on this title for around 2 years.
The combat feels more fast-based than games like Demon’s Souls or even Dark Souls and i’m getting a Bloodborne vibe with the overall design. You play as Corvus, a character with the ability to, in Team17’s words, “rend the diseased powers of your enemies from them and fashion them into powerful weapons”.
Gameplay aside, Thymesia has a dark and eerie place plagued by various diseases and OverBorder and Team17 have yet to share more of the world they are building. What we know so far is that the game will feature multiple endings to encourage multiple playthroughs, and that Corvus is on a quest to regain his memories.
At the very least it’s worth keeping tabs on as we see more of Thymesia. A release date was not given by Team17 but they are aiming for a 2021 release on the PC platform with no word of a console release.
Mortal Souls was also developed by an indie studio and it was a pleasant surprise and widely embraced by fans of the genre. Will we see similar success in Thymesia? Let us know what you think!
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii reuses the Infinite Wealth setting that still feels fresh and exciting for many and is packed with an absurd pirate theme that reminds us that the Yakuza series can go anywhere it wants and still find ways to entertain. Over 10 hours in, Pirate Yakuza is already showing that RGG can still give reason to invest time on their spinoff projects.

Even with a few fumbles on the game’s online netcode and matchmaking, Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. still delivers an excellent fighting game for newcomers and Virtua Fighter fans alike. And with this being an online-focused endeavor, it can only get better through patch updates.
Sony and Bend Studio have announced Days Gone Remastered for PS5 and PC, featuring new game modes, accessibility options, and graphical upgrades.

Capcom released Monster Hunter Wilds launch trailer which features Jin Dahaad, the Apex Predator found in the Iceshard Cliffs location in the game. They also gave the game’s post-launch roadmap, giving players an idea what to expect from the game in the coming months after release.
A couple of weeks after the launch of anime extraction shooter Synduality: Echo of Ada, Bandai Namco and developer Game Studio revealed that the game’s season 1 update will include a new map called East Amasia, new Requests (quests), gear, and more.
Synduality Echo of Ada has potential, but its flawed economy, tedious grind, and lack of meaningful story incentives make it hard to recommend in its current state. Without drastic improvements, it risks being forgotten before it ever finds a steady audience.
Sony will no longer require PC players to sign up for a PSN account to play any of Sony’s games when they become available on PC. Moving forward, the incentive for having a PSN will be in the form of in-game rewards.
