https://www.pcgamer.com/fall-guys-season-3-starts-next-week-adds-the-terrifying-ringus-dingus/
The winter-themed Season 3 of Fall Guys will be a bigger deal than the somewhat underwhelming Season 2, featuring seven new levels and over 30 new costumes, as well as more emotes and obstacles like, let me check my notes here, "ringus dingus". Probably some snowballs too.

It Takes Two, the next project from Hazelight Studios, is in some ways similar to its previous game, A Way Out. But where that was a gritty co-op action-adventure about guys busting out of jail, It Takes Two, as it was described when it was unveiled in June, is a story about a young girl who struggles to come to terms with her parents' separation by creating dolls that, through some unknown magic, she can use to control them and their emotions.

One pleasant surprise from The Game Awards was the announcement of Road 96, a procedurally generated road trip adventure about fleeing from a tyrannical regime. Inspired by renowned filmmakers like the Coen Brothers, Tarantino, and Bong Joon-Ho, Road 96 is made by the team behind Valiant Hearts and Memories Retold—two great narrative games with a lot of heart.

Season is one of the more interesting things shown at The Game Awards tonight.

Six years after its release, Elite Dangerous is getting an incredible new feature: legs.

The video above is the first real in-engine footage of the expansion.

>> I guess MSoft also wanted to see its iconic character making silly dances like Sony's Kratos.

Escape from Tarkov's new map looks amazing and will definitely melt my PC
https://www.pcgamer.com/escape-from-tarkovs-new-map-looks-amazing-and-will-definitely-melt-my-pc/
We've all had abusive relationships with a game, right? For me, it's Escape from Tarkov—an experience that can be described as bewildering, brutal, unfair, and potentially very expensive. It's not even fully released yet, having been in open beta since mid-2017, since which Tarkov has evolved and become increasingly polished while retaining the core ability to make my PC wheeze in desperation whenever it runs.
