Carrion

Publisher Devolver Digital and developer Phobia Game Studio have announced a final release date for Carrion. The reverse-horror experience launches on July 23, the two companies revealed.

Here’s an overview of Carrion plus a new trailer:

Devolver Direct 2020 is beginning soon. The broadcast kicks off at 12 PM PT / 3 PM ET / 8 PM in the UK / 9 PM in Europe.

Based on previous E3 presentations from Devolver, we can probably expect more weirdness and the continuing saga of Nina Struthers. We should be hearing about new games and release dates as well, including Carrion. Of course, we’ll be bringing you all of the important news throughout the broadcast.

Here’s where you can watch Devolver Direct:

Paper Mario: The Origami King

Like Paper Mario: Color Splash, The Origami King lets players view a bunch of different concept art created during development. The whole set appears to have already come online after some players got their hands on the game early (and following a leak as well). 

You can check out the full lineup of concept art below. Note that it does show a variety of locations and what some may feel is spoiler-related content, so keep that in mind before proceeding.

The comic adventure shooter Liberated was updated this week to version 1.0.2. It includes a higher frame rate, nicer visual effects, and adjustments.
