<p>The main premise revolves around the players' journey to Radlantis. The Radmospheric Three - Captain Squid, Christopher Licht, and Professor Planks will join them. Once they reach Radlantis, they will not only encounter the tempest skate god, Gail Force. But also, they may find themselves competing with the skate gods for the Radlantis Rivals Cup.</p>
 
<p>Developers also added the Hall of Rad to entice players to cement their skating legacy. They need to conquer the complex Burly Routes to enter the Hall of Rad.</p>
 
<p>Aside from new challenges and characters, the game also includes more customization options.</p>
 
<p>Last October, Roll7 unveiled details about its second and last expansion for OlliOlli World.</p>

Skating With the Gods: Olliolli World's Final Expansion Pack Now Live

<p>Players are in for another catastrophic episode for <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/surviving-the-aftermath/">Surviving the Aftermath</a>'s second expansion pack. And it will test their management skills anew. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/iceflake-studios/">Iceflake Studio</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/paradox-interactive/">Paradox Interactive</a> launched Surviving the Aftermath: Shattered Hope on November 3. It is available for download on <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/surviving-the-aftermath/">PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/surviving-the-aftermath/">Xbox One</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/surviving-the-aftermath/">PlayStation 4</a>.</p>
 
<p>It is the second downloadable content <em>(DLC)</em> for the popular survival colony-builder simulation. It was also released five months after New Alliance, its first expansion pack.</p>
 
<p>In Surviving the Aftermath: Shattered Hope, players will have to manage the outcome of a new disaster: the moon's destruction. However, the event brings them both new challenges and opportunities.</p>
 
<p><q>This expansion builds upon the game's world with the Shattered Moon calamity, adding both the ability to boost resource production and the task of maintaining survivors' hope,</q> said Paradox Interactive.</p>
 
<p>The DLC also allows players to unlock a new quest called Shattered Hope. In it, they can explore and learn more about the moon's demise.</p>
 
<p>Surviving the Aftermath: Shattered Hope contains new resources for the colony, such as lunar dust. Players can use the felled moon rock deposits to improve productivity. They can turn them into valuable lunar dust, a highly sought-after material. Lunar dust can boost building efficiency and hasten production. According to developers, it can even shorten the healing period to 48 hours.</p>
 
<p>The latest expansion pack also introduces Hope as a new global value. Players will need to keep hopes high in their colony to protect it from Anguish.</p>
 
<p><q>If (hope is) kept too low for too long, it will trigger a new condition called Anguish that, if left untreated, may turn your colonists hostile,</q> Paradox Interactive added. Aside from new additions to the game, Paradox Interactive said Surviving the Aftermath: Shattered Hope includes fixes and other gameplay improvements.</p>
 
<p>The original version of Surviving the Aftermath came out in 2021.</p>

<p>New features and enhanced visuals await players in the newest version of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/call-of-the-wild-the-angler/">Call of the Wild: The Angler</a>. The game's developer, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/expansive-worlds/">Expansive Worlds</a>, released the latest edition on October 31. The creator dubbed the game's first significant update <strong>The Challenger</strong>.</p>
 
<p>The update's release came three months after Expansive Worlds launched the fishing <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/genre/simulation/">simulation game</a>. Much of its development came from community feedback, developers said.</p>

<p>The new features in the game consist of daily and weekly challenges and a brand-new shop. Two in-game feed sections were also placed to provide players with the latest updates.</p>
 
<p>Meanwhile, critical improvements to the game involved visual and motion enhancements.These included putting an AMD Fidelity Stochastic Screen Space Reflections (SSSR). With this technology, players can expect better water surface reflections, developers explained.</p>
 
<p>The Challenger Update also improved water transitions, boat motion, fish animation, and the verlet system. Developers have also released full patch notes on the <a href="https://cotwtheangler.com/">game's official website</a>.</p>

Call of the Wild: The Angler Gets First Major Update

<p><a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/level-zero/">Level Zero</a>, the newest <a href="https://whatoplay.com/best/survival/">survival</a> horror title for indie game publisher <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/tinybuild/">tinyBuild</a>, will arrive on PC, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/level-zero/">PS5</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/level-zero/">Series X</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/level-zero/">PS4</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/level-zero/">Xbox One</a>. The Washington-based independent publisher has recently unveiled more details about Level Zero. They released a new trailer on YouTube on November 2, giving players a glimpse of the game's development progress.</p>
 
<p>The three-minute video was also the most extensive sneak peek at Level Zero. It provides a preview of what players can expect when they become scientists or the antagonistic aliens in the game. tinyBuild has also opened sign-ups for the survival horror game's Closed Beta version.</p>

<div class="video-responsive">
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/NXE0n0B6mR0?controls=0" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
 
<p>Level Zero is being developed by <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/doghowl-games/">DogHowl Games</a>, an independent game development company from Cyprus. Level Zero is their first project. </p>
 
<p>Developers said they would provide more updates on the game's beta events this November.</p>
 
<p>Level Zero's premise is simple. TinyBuild billed it as a deadly cat-and-mouse game between a team of scientists and alien monsters. On the planet Turion, both groups will be struggling for survival. Four players will play as human scientists in this PvP game, while a two-player squad will hunt them down as monsters.</p>
 
<p>As scientists, players need to escape from the rundown space station in Turion. In doing so, their task is to fix the base's power system.</p>
 
<p>They must work together to find tools and other resources in the destroyed facility. Most importantly, they should get flares, glow sticks, and other light sources to fend off and kill incoming alien monsters.</p>
 
<p>These deadly creatures lurk in the shadows and thrive in the darkness. They can respawn endlessly, track and disarm human prey, and destroy anything that gets in their way. Their only weakness is the light, as a single beam turns them into ashes instantly.</p>
 
<p>In 2021, tinyBuild announced that they had teamed up with DogHowl Games to create Level Hero. tinyBuild is also the publisher behind the popular Hello Neighbor franchise, also a survival horror game.</p>

<h2>10. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/kingdom-of-the-dead/">KINGDOM Of The DEAD</a></h2>

<p>This may look like it came straight from the 90s, but I tell you, it’s not. It’s <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/genre/first-person-shooter/">first-person shooter</a> takes place in a wonderland of Eldritch horrors. The game’s pen and ink art style gives off a special kind of eerie vibe. So if you’re terrified of alien overlords like Cthulhu, good luck with this one.</p>

<h2>9. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/ikai/">Ikai on PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/ikai/">PS5</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/ikai/">Series X</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/ikai/">Switch</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/ikai/">PS4</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/ikai/">Xbox One</a></h2>

<p>Help a shrine maiden as she cleanses evil in this story set in feudal Japan. Along the way, you’ll encounter strange yokai lurking and waiting to scare the crap out of you. It’s story heavy. So despite all the jumpscares, there’s a lot of heart in its narrative and character arcs.</p>

<h2>8. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/janitor-bleeds/">Janitor Bleeds on PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/janitor-bleeds/">Series X</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/janitor-bleeds/">Xbox One</a></h2>

<p>You find yourself in an abandoned arcade. Tinker with old arcade machines and try to run away from something. There’s a creature that dwells within the machines… and it’s out to get you.</p>

<h2>7. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/martha-is-dead/">Martha Is Dead on PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/martha-is-dead/">PS5</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/martha-is-dead/">Series X</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/martha-is-dead/">PS4</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/martha-is-dead/">Xbox One</a></h2>

<p>Set during the height of World War 2, you play as Martha’s sister as she uncovers the mystery that surrounds her death. Themes of grief and sadness may be too heavy for some. But the scares will definitely leave a mark.</p> 

<p>It’s a slow burn story that takes its time.. So you better be cautious before that next jumpscare. </p>

<h2>6. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/fatum-betula/">Fatum Betula on PC</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/fatum-betula/">Xbox One</a></h2>

<p>This atmospheric exploration game feels a bit like a low-poly amusement park of horrors. Their characters and the conversations you have with them are as much a source of horror as the world itself. With its puzzles and many endings, this game is definitely a bargain.</p>

<h2>5. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-mortuary-assistant/">The Mortuary Assistant</a></h2>

<p>You play as an newly-hired embalmer. For some reasons, a demon started haunting you on your first day on the job. Now you have to prepare the corpses and get rid of the demon. Yeah, this game is terrifying. It preys on your sanity with eerie background sounds and random jumpscares!</p>

<h2>4. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-quarry/">The Quarry on PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/the-quarry/">PS5, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/the-quarry/">Series X</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/the-quarry/">PS4</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/the-quarry/">Xbox One</a></h2>

<p>You know how in horror movies the characters always make stupid decisions? This is a game built around that. Not the kind that scares you in the face.. Rather, it’s one that builds up based on interesting stories and the choices you make. </p>

<h2>3. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/immortality/">IMMORTALITYon PC</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/immortality/">Series X</a></h2>

<p>Watch the movies of a failed actress and piece clues together to find out what really happened. Things may seem normal, at first. But as you dive deeper, things get… a little off.</p>

<h2>2. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/madison/">MADiSON on PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/madison/">PS5</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/madison/">Series X</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/madison/">Switch</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/madison/">PS4</a></h2>

<p>Remember Fatal Frame, right? MADiSON is similar but it leans more on the slowburn, exploration type.</p>

<p>What happened here? Who locked you up? What’s up with the cameras? It’s all up to you to find out. Help him find the answers hidden in this god-awful place. But be wary of shifting hallways and unexpected scares.</p>

<h2>1. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/tormented-souls/">Tormented Souls on Switch</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/tormented-souls/">PS4</a></h2>

<p>This is a  psychological horror that’s a good mix of Silent Hill, and Resident Evil. Resource management? Creepy camera angles? A helpless protagonist? You got it all right here.</p>

<p>Your main goal is to escape from this “abandoned” mansion. Be careful… it’s not as empty you might think.</p> 

<p>This mysterious Mansion has a lot of nods to the classics. The fixed camera angles are so old school horror..  But even for long-time horror fans, Tormented Souls has plenty of surprises.</p>

Bleach: Brave Souls Reaches 70M Downloads

<p>A remake of the critically acclaimed <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/best/rpg/">RPG</a> <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-witcher/">The Witcher</a> is currently in the works. Poland-based gaming company <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/cd-projekt-red/">CD Projekt Red</a> said they are in the early stages of making a modernized version of The Witcher, the first game in their hit series. This announcement also coincided with the 15th anniversary of the game's release.</p>
 
<p>For The Witcher Remake, CD Projekt Red decided to team up with a third-party studio. They worked with Fool's Theory to recreate the classic fantasy RPG on Unreal Engine 5. However, these are the only details they have released so far. The developers told fans and players to be patient as the project would take time.</p>
 
<p><q>It's still early and we want to ensure that the game is created with the utmost care and attention to detail,</q> they said in a statement published on The Witcher's official website. <q>We want to ask you for patience as it will be a while until we start talking about this project in detail,</q> it added.</p>
 
<p>They also took to Twitter to share the same message with over 1.4 million followers. <q>We want to do this right, so please be patient patient-it be a while until we can share more details,</q> they Tweeted.</p>
 
<p>CD Projekt Red teased fans of a possible The Witcher Remake during their Strategy Update last October. Back then, it was still referred to as <strong>Canis Majoris</strong>.</p>
 
<p>Adam Badowski, Head of the Studio for CD Projekt Red, said redeveloping The Witcher for next-generation gamers meant a lot for their team. <q>The Witcher is where it all started for us... It was the first game we made, ever, and it was a big moment for us then,</q>said Badowski.</p>
 
<p>Jakub Rokosz, CEO of Fool's Theory, also revealed that several developers from their studio have previously worked for <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-witcher-2-assassins-of-kings/">The Witcher 2</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-witcher-3-wild-hunt/">The Witcher 3</a>.</p>
 
<p><q>Our goal is to give players another great game from the iconic Witcher series,</q> added Rokosz.</p>
 
<p><a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/fools-theory/">Fool's Theory</a> is also a game developer based in Poland. Their works included Baldurs Gate III, Outriders, and Project Vitriol.</p>
 
<p>The Witcher video game series is based on Polish fantasy novels created by Andrzej Sapkowski. All three installments of the video game franchise received positive feedback. They also became a commercial success. CD Projekt Red reportedly earned up to US$ 1 billion from the games' sales alone. Whatoplay crowned The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt the <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/best/2015/">Best PC Game of 2015</a>.</p>

The Witcher Remake Confirmed by CD Projekt Red

<p>The new demo for the upcoming <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/best/survival/" title="list of survival games">survival</a>-<a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/best/horror/" title="List of horror games">horror</a> game <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/conscript/">CONSCRIPT is now available for PC</a>. Jordan Mochi, the one-man team behind <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/catchweight-studio/">Catchweight Studio</a>, launched Conscript's 0.3.0 version on Steam last September 16. A new gameplay trailer on YouTube accompanied the demo's release.</p>
 
<p><q>It has been nearly a year since the last demo update, so I thought I'd upgrade it to more accurately reflect the gameplay of the final game,</q> said Mochi.</p>

<div class="video-responsive">
	<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZWeuNlxbjmk" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
 
<p>However, Mochi said gamers who have already played the 2021 demo might not find anything new.</p>
 
<p><q>If you've already played the 2021 version, this won't offer any new areas - it's just a refinement of the same chunk of the game. Saves are not compatible with the previous demo either,</q> he said.</p>
 
<p>Still, Conscript's newest update includes enhanced visuals, among others. Players can expect new intro cinematics and updated character designs. This year's demo also contains new NPCs and new visual effects for fire, smoke, gas, and explosions, to name a few. A mounted machine gun turret mechanic was also made available.</p> 
 
<h2>Trip to Verdun</h2>
 
<p>Meanwhile, Mochi published a development blog <em>(devlog)</em> days before the demo release. The devlog featured his visit to the historic French town of Verdun. The Australian developer revealed that his recent trip to Verdun inspired much of Conscript's newest version.</p>
 
<p>After joining Gamescom 2022 in Cologne, Germany, Mochi decided to make his way via train to France. He chronicled his visit to Verdun, one of the major sites of battles during World War 1, on Conscript's Kickstarter page days.</p>
 
<p><q>Gamescom was a great experience, and travelling through the hills of Verdun for the first time gave me a lot of inspiration for the game,</q> said Mochi. <q>I spent a week following the old trench lines and exploring overgrown abandoned forts. Conscript is going to become extra authentic now!</q> he added.</p>
 
<p>The top-down, survival-horror game tells the story of a French soldier trying to find his lost brother amid the chaos of World War 1. Told in a grainy, pixelated art style, Conscript takes inspiration from classic survival-horror titles such as <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/resident-evil-4-remake/">Resident Evil</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/silent-hill-2/">Silent Hill</a>.</p>
 
<p><a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/1286990/CONSCRIPT/">Conscript 0.3.0</a> is also part of this year's Halloween Scream Fest for Steam.</p>

A trip to Verdun led creator to make massive improvements.

WW1 Horror CONSCRIPT's Latest Demo Out for Steam Halloween Scream Fest

<p>Fans of the hit shonen series One Piece are in for a treat. Bandai Namco Entertainment has confirmed that the iconic Kingdom of Alabasta will be part of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/one-piece-odyssey/">One Piece Odyssey</a>.</p>
 
<p>One Piece Odyssey is an <a href="https://whatoplay.com/upcoming/jrpg/">upcoming JRPG</a> based on the popular manga. Months before the game's full release, Bandai teased fans with a new trailer featuring none other than Alabasta. On October 22, they published a seven-minute gameplay preview of the game on YouTube.</p>

<div class="video-responsive">
	<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/i42zSqdOl3s?controls=0" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
 
<p>The first part of the trailer explores the Kingdom of Alabasta, a fan-favorite storyline.</p>
 
<p>The video was the game's most extensive sneak peek to date. It covers what skills Captain Monkey D. Luffy and the rest of the Straw Hat Crew have. There are even portions showing cutscenes and mechanics before and during battles.</p>
 
<p>One Piece Odyssey was officially revealed in March 2022, during One Piece's 25th anniversary.</p>
 
<p>One of Japan's largest video game companies, Bandai, said earlier that the game would come out on January 13, 2023. It will be available on <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/one-piece-odyssey/">PlayStation 5</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/one-piece-odyssey/">PlayStation 4</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/one-piece-odyssey/">Series X|S</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/one-piece-odyssey/">PC via Steam</a>.</p>
 
<p>In the meantime, Bandai promises to deliver One Piece Odyssey with a storyline rooted in the canon. They even tapped its creator, Eiichiro Oda, as part of the game's core production team.</p>
 
<p><q>In One Piece Odyssey, players explore new and familiar environments that are richly detailed and authentic to One Piece's visual style,</q> said Bandai. The gameplay started when the Straw Hat Crew stumbled onto a mysterious new island. Players will then <q>embark on various challenges that connect the past and the present of the One Piece canon.</q></p>
 
<p>The developers also said they would add new characters and a new story that would be unique to the game.</p>

<p>One Piece Odyssey is the latest addition to the Japanese mega-franchise. It now includes at least 15 feature films, home videos, and licensed merchandise such as toys and novelty items, to name a few.</p>
