Ashen dev's stunning new game, Flintlock, looks nothing like the studio's debut
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has been looking quite exciting since the moment of its reveal. Today, developer A44 unenvied what inspired the design of the game's world, and how a small team could create such detailed characters and environments. The developer based Flintlock's original fantasy open world on its native New Zealand. The game has three major diverse zones, each offering a new environment inspired by locales of the beautiful country - from deep caverns to mountainous peaks. Rewardin...
Ashen's Epic Store exclusivity ends, it's now on Steam and GOG
A little over a year ago, action RPG "Ashen" from AA4 and Annapurna Interactive was one of the most wishlisted games on Steam. That changed abruptly when Ashen became one of the first Epic Games Store limited exclusives, along with Supergiant Games' RPG Hades, which pushed back its Steam release by a full year. That year has come and gone (somehow) and Ashen is now available on "Steam" and "GOG". ("Hades launches on Steam tomorrow").  As you might expect for a game that's been out on anot...
Game DNA: Making yourself a home
" " "Game DNA" is a series where we take a single concept from games, strip it to its essence, and look at how it — and we — have developed over time. I was homeless when I discovered "Minecraft" — not homeless in the street-sleeping sense, thankfully. Only in the sofa-surfing sense. I had a bed, even. The creaking cabin bed of two friends who took pity on me and let me crash for a few months in their house, while I sullied my fingertips with sambuca in a dank Yorkshire nightclub for...
The 10 best games like Dark Souls
" " Sorry, definition nerds. Soulslike is a word now. Disgusting, I know, but this is how genres are made. Along comes a giant like "Dark Souls" that everybody won t stop bleating about and soon it has copycats. Before you know it, a swarm of like-minded games with sparse checkpoints and lethal attacks are scuttling around, leaving slime trails and biting your ankles for surprisingly massive damage. Ugh, soulslikes. But stoop low to appreciate these little monsters, and among them you ll find some v...
Moody co-op action-RPG Ashen's Nightstorm Isle DLC launches next week

Moody co-op action-RPG Ashen coming to PS4 and Switch in December
Following a year of Epic Games Store and Xbox One exclusivity, developer Aurora44's brooding co-op action-RPG, Ashen, will be shaking off its shackles and heading to PlayStation 4 and Switch on 9th December - and it'll be arriving on Steam and GOG the same day. Ashen wonderfully stylish fantasy action blends stamina-based third-person melee combat and open-world exploration, and casts players forth on a journey out across a bleak, time-ravaged world. While on their travels, adventurers can encou...
Ashen will drop Epic Games Store exclusivity and arrive on Steam and GOG this year
A44's broody, beautiful Souls-like Ashen will drop its "Epic Games Store exclusivity" and make its way to other digital storefronts in December, one year and a little change after it was unveiled as an EGS launch title—which is also when the yearlong exclusivity period was announced.  Ashen will be available on both "Steam" and GOG December 9 according to a trailer released today, which you can view above.
