This week Doom Patrol is back for a fourth season, a summer of sci-fi games with Marvel's Midnight Suns and Warhammer 40K: Darktide, a look at atompunk adventure game The Invincible and rumours of Doctor Who spinoff series thanks to the Disney/BBC deal.

In a nearly 3 hour long podcast interview Bethesda studio director Todd Howard spent 20 minutes talking about upcoming action roleplaying game Starfield.

New details emerged.

We just described not sci-fi game first person shooter Far Cry 6 announcing a sci-fi DLC as slightly unusual, but another game has done exactly the same thing.

Two Point Campus is a university simulation game which launched in August and its first DLC will be Space Academy.

And now for something completely different - an open world dress-up adventure game called Infinity Nikki from Chinese developer Paper Games.

The trailer is titled It’s glam time any time! We wouldn't disagree.

The Far Cry first person shooter franchise has just done something slightly unusual though not entirely out of character.

Far Cry 6 is set on a fictional Caribbean island and isn't sci-fi. But it's getting a very sci-fi DLC called Lost Between Worlds.

We recently contrasted the promotional strategies employed by games Warhammer 40K: Darktide and Marvel's Midnight Suns. A light tickle versus saturation bombing.

Today launch trailers dropped for both titles (Darktide, Suns) so we'll play the comparison game again.

As announced and on time, Warner Bros. have introduced the new 4 player co-op Heroic Assault content featuring interstellar villain Starro, and with it also a surprise 2 player co-op supercharged villain Showdown mode for action roleplaying game Gotham Knights.

Looks about what you'd expect but immediately the writing jars.

Sandbox survival / building games like Minecraft - the world's highest selling video game - are very popular but sci-fi entries like Space Engineers may need to rethink their design.

NASA has awarded a $57.2 million contract to Austin based ICON Technology to investigate plans to 3D print buildings from moon dirt.

Following the successful real time strategy game Terran Command which released in June, we have an announcement for another Starship Troopers title, Extermination. A co-op first person builder and shooter.

As titles go you can't get more brutal and uncompromising. Which fits the franchise.

We watch and enjoy a lot of Netflix content, and if anything, their promos sometimes make titles appear better than they are.

Hot Skull's teaser didn't impress us and now its trailer has left us scratching our heads.
