Ok. Monday has come, a new week has started and there are lots of news to post... but most of them come from the announcements made during the Blizzcon in Friday, so I've decided to change how the usual 2 news posts are made.
Today, the first post will be the sum of DSO and PCG news, and the second post will be all about Blizzard related games.
With that said, let's go to the news!

SPACE HULK: DEATHWING IS COMING IN DECEMBER
http://www.pcgamer.com/space-hulk-deathwing-is-coming-in-december/
The Warhammer 40K shooter Space Hulk: Deathwing finally has a proper release date, and it is not, as we were told, in November. But it's close: December 9 is the big day, and to celebrate the announcement we've got a new trailer, ominously entitled "Enter the Space Hulk," that serves up a nice overview of everything the grim future game has to offer.
IO INTERACTIVE CONFIRMS SECOND SEASON FOR HITMAN
http://www.pcgamer.com/io-interactive-confirms-second-season-for-hitman/
Hitman developer Io Interactive said in August that the game, which recently wrapped up its first six-episode season with a trip to Japan, could get two more seasons if all went well. And apparently it's gone well enough, because production director Hakan Abrak confirmed in a recent interview with Gamergen that a second season is on the way.
NIHON FALCOM DUNGEON CRAWLER XANADU NEXT HITS PC
http://www.pcgamer.com/nihon-falcom-dungeon-crawler-xanadu-next-hits-pc/
'Castle Strangerock' is a fine name for a fortification, particularly one that emerges from a foggy lake. I'm pleased to say that it's the place you'll be investigating in Nihon Falcom's Xanadu Next, a moderately old JRPG that's just been translated into English, been given a light buffing and released on Steam, on yer GOG and on the Humble Store. I had a fine old time with the original Ys when I played it for the first time a couple of years ago—apart from an end boss I found impossible to beat—so I'm interested to try some of Falcom's less well-known games.

http://www.pcgamer.com/turtle-rocks-last-unfinished-left-4-dead-campaign-is-now-available-to-play/

HERE'S A NEW TRAILER FOR DAEDALIC'S PILLARS OF THE EARTH
http://www.pcgamer.com/heres-a-new-trailer-for-daedalics-pillars-of-the-earth/
Hey, so it turns out that Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth is getting a game adaptation, and Daedalic is making it. This news has been floating around since last year, but I'm very glad it came to me with the release of a new trailer a couple of days ago, because—as I've come to expect from Daedalic's games—the art and animation of this point 'n' click adventure/"interactive novel" is top-notch. Here, get a load of it in action in the new teaser video, which comes in "family friendly" ('Teaser 1') and "intense" ('Teaser 2') variants.
