2 Wet Ones

Avatar: The Way of Water has made a predictably big splash in cinemas but unaccompanied by either of the planned video games, Reckoning and Frontiers of Pandora, sci-fi gamers might be looking to scratch a futuristic aquatic itch with other titles.

Relief may be just around the corner with a January 12 release date for underwater city builder Aquatico and a suggestion from developer Unknown Worlds that they may soon unveil Subnautica 3.

Welcome to HELL-A

Games which allow you to play as a vampire are so numerous we couldn't even guess at their number. Vampires are sexy, strong and the posh nosh of the undead world.

Zombies are another matter. Typically mindless shotgun-fodder of the undead world, the gameplay trailer (warning - quite gory) for Dead Island 2 interestingly shows the player becoming one.

Fantasy Wins

Reviews for survival horror The Callisto Protocol are coming in and like Gotham Knights, some major sites (Gamespot) have scored it a terrifying 5 out of 10. Its current review average on Metacritic is 74.

Horizon Forbidden West, Stray and Grounded garnered critical praise but not as much as fantasy titles Elden Ring and God of War: Ragnarok.

Space Academy

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.
