UPDATE 19th April 2016: Capcom's just released the first trailer for downloadable Street Fighter 5 character Guile.

Spiders, the Paris-based developer of Bound by Flame, has released a gameplay trailer for its next game: The Technomancer.

There's a character in The Banner Saga called Egil. You probably won't remember much about him even if you played the first game, aside from the fact that he carries a big shield and clearly fancies the protagonist's daughter, Alette. He's alright, but a little forgettable in what becomes an epic tale of giants, magic and a world-devouring serpent. In fact, according to the developers, only something like five percent of players managed to keep him alive throughout the events of the first game. A fairly minor character, then. But as part of that five percent of players (not bragging, just saying), I was delighted to see Egil play a small role in The Banner Saga 2 after importing my save file. These games delight in conveying the terrible burdens of leadership and so it feels especially important that the choices made so far have meant something.

Mafia 3 comes out on 7th October 2016, 2K Games has announced.

Aging online adventure Runescape has been revamped with a fresh look, thanks to a new visual engine.

Being the oldest member of 'Team Video' at Eurogamer, I'm prone to a good tickling of my nostalgia button. That's why, when a game comes along that reminds me of days gone by, I'm drawn to it like a flat cap-wearing child to a loaf of Hovis. "Oooh, this reminds me of something I used to play back in the days when I could wear shorts without being judged" is a thought that may well pop into my head during such a time.

Curious Destiny fans have spotted a clue that points to a possible 20th September release date for the game's next big expansion.

If you want to weigh Destiny's April update by the new activities it adds, then you're going to be disappointed. In terms of new content, to use the c-word, there's far less meat on this beast's bones than in any add-on before it. There's far less, even, than December 2014's disappointing Dark Below. There's no new raid, the one new strike is instantly forgettable and the refreshed Prison of Elders arena feels like something Bungie should have added months back.

GungHo Online Entertainment has put out a new trailer for Let it Die, the PlayStation 4 exclusive from Suda 51.

Following the success of IndieGoGo campaigns for new versions of the Spectrum, someone's launched a crowdfunding campaign that taps into nostalgia for another retro home computer: the Commodore 64.

The Xbox One multiplayer beta for Gears of War 4 rolls out this week, offering a playable sampler of a major Microsoft title not due for release for another six months. We were given the opportunity to jump in early over the weekend, and we were eager to see what new studio The Coalition has achieved so far. The ambition here is certainly lofty: while single-player campaign is confirmed as a 30fps affair, the studio is aiming for 1080p60 with its multiplayer mode - with Unreal Engine 4 providing the technological underpinnings.

The new Doom launched in multiplayer open beta form last week - and it's having a tough time from Steam user reviews.

The concept behind Souls multiplayer is unique among big-budget releases, and so to this day feels fresh. Online multiplayer design over-values symmetry as some sort of foundational principle - which in certain genres, to be sure, it is. But the Souls series thrives on placing a rock-solid combat system in asymmetrical scenarios, bringing players together in unexpected ways and often giving one side a clear advantage. This is the life of an invader, and it's never about fairness.

Ratchet & Clank and Sunset Overdrive developer Insomniac is releasing its aquatic 2D metroidvania Song of the Deep on 12th July for PS4, Xbox One and PC.

Slender: The Arrival developer Blue Isle Studios has announced its upcoming sci-fi game Valley.

Funcom, the developer of The Longest Journey and The Secret World, will launch its first-person horror game The Park on 3rd May for PS4 and Xbox One.

That was quick. Dean Hall's Rocketwerkz studio already has a Vive game up on Early Access. It's called Out of Ammo, and Chris Bratt and I have spent the morning messing around with it.

YouTuber and Fallout fanatic Many a True Nerd has adapted Fallout: New Vegas into a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure video series.

World of Warcraft's sixth expansion, Legion, is set to launch on 30th August, Blizzard has announced.

Life is Strange concluded almost six months ago but Dontnod's episodic series still sparks discussion in the Eurogamer office.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow developer MercurySteam has announced an upcoming asymmetrical multiplayer title called Raiders of the Broken Planet.

Rebellion, maker of Sniper Elite and the Zombie Army Trilogy, has released Battlezone 98 Redux, the remaster of the 1998 Battlezone game, on Steam. There it costs £14.99.

Capcom has come up with a solution for Street Fighter 5's rage quitting problem.

Ken Levine, director of BioShock, is making an interactive live-action film based on The Twilight Zone.

Ratchet & Clank and Sunset Overdrive developer Insomniac Games has announced two new Oculus-exclusive titles. These are in addition to the studio's already announced third-person survival-horror Oculus game Edge of Nowhere.

Insomniac Games is known more for polish than originality. After 11 Ratchet & Clank titles, a few first-person shooters, and Sunset Overdrive's open-world mayhem, Insomniac's got a reputation as a commendable, workmanlike studio, but not a particularly daring one. That's all changing with the Burbank-based studio jumping head-first into the realm of VR with three Oculus titles in development, and one of these in particular stands out as being completely unlike anything else on the market.

The Gears of War 4 multiplayer beta launched today and anyone who owns Gears of War: Ultimate Edition should soon have access to it.

Last year, the BBC's Watchdog programme investigated Sony's digital refund policy after it received a number of complaints from PlayStation owners who had struggled to get their money back following fraudulent purchases.

Ah, P.T. Hideo Kojima's wonderful "playable teaser" was designed to spark a new Silent Hill game starring The Walking Dead's Norman Reedus into life. But despite being a wonderful game in its own right, Konami pulled it from the PlayStation Store after superstar designer Kojima split with the company and Silent Hills was canned.
