Paradox Interactive's 'Leviathan: Warships' Trailer Packs More Puns Than You Can Handle In One Of The Best Promos In A Long While

Posted by Artem Russakovskii in Games, News, Videos

Paradox Interactive, a well-known game publisher and developer, today posted up a promo video for the upcoming ship battling game Leviathan: Warships. If you watch only one video today, let it be this one. Kittens and puppies can wait till tomorrow. I haven't had this much fun watching trailers ever since the unfortunate fireworks accident at the nearby trailer park.

Paradox Interactive's previous Android project, Magicka, is sitting at 4.8/5.0 after over 100 reviews, so needless to say, I'm pretty excited about their next game. It sets sail April 30th on Android, PC, Mac, and iOS.

And now, for the main event.

Gameloft Teases Upcoming Dungeon Hunter 4 With Very Pretty Video Trailer

Posted by Ryan Whitwam in Apps/Games, Games, News

The fourth incarnation of Gameloft's action-RPG Dungeon Hunter franchise is going to be coming out in the near future, but the developer is already priming the pump with a teaser trailer. Unlike some other pre-release trailers, this one actually includes gameplay footage. Take a gander.

It looks like the same kind of hack-and-slash gameplay from past editions of Dungeon Hunter at work here. There will still be an arena where you can do battle against other humans, but the main quest will surely be the meat of the experience. The last game in the series was free-to-play with in-app purchases, and I suspect Gameloft will continue with this model in Dungeon Hunter 4.

Ultima Forever: Quest For The Avatar Trailer Shows Off 400 Hours Of Classic RPG Action

Posted by Jeremiah Rice in Games, News

Ultima has been around forever. So it's only appropriate that the series' new mobile push incorporate the fact in its title... even if it is a bit on the nose. Ultima Forever: Quest For The Avatar is an upcoming top-down dungeon crawler set in the familiar Ultima universe, complete with online play and a massive amount of game time. According to a Polygon interview with the game's producer, getting to level 15 will take 200 hours, while getting to the end with everything will take closer to 400.

The game is based on the battle system of Ultima 4, with a more real-time action component.

Pokémon TV Arrives On Android, Streams A Rotating Selection Of Episodes For Free

Posted by Eric Ravenscraft in Applications, News

There's little doubt that Pokémon is the very best at separating parents from money. Like no franchise ever was. Getting Nintendo to relinquish control of content, though, is a real test. It doesn't generally stream its show for free without good cause. Today, however, it's available across the land. The animated series can now be streamed to Android handsets far and wide.

Admittedly Pokémon licensing is something I don't understand, but it's pretty powerful that this app has free episodes inside. It's not the complete series, but it's probably enough Pokémon for you and me. I haven't seen the show since high school, but I knew a reunion was destiny.

Glu Mobile Shows Off More Muscle-Bound Meatheads In Gun Bros 2 Trailer

Posted by Jeremiah Rice in Games, News

If there was ever a contender for mobile game with the highest mullet to tact ratio, it's Gun Bros. The top-down shooter made a splash when it released on Android in 2011, sitting atop the Market charts for months. Now it's high time for the lads of F.R.A.G.G.E.D. to head back into battle, this time in a full 3D smorgasbord of Arnold-grade action. Glu Mobile has released an early trailer for the game, and while there's no date, it should be enough to thoroughly whet the appetites of the game's current fans.

There's plenty of information to be gleaned from the 75-second trailer: there are more and bigger characters, more and bigger guns, more and bigger enemies...

Gameloft Shows Off Blitz Brigade Trailer – It's Like Team Fortress 2 For Your Phone Or Tablet

Posted by Ryan Whitwam in Apps/Games, Games, News, Videos

It would be great if Valve would make games for Android, right? Oh, what's this? It looks like Team Fortress 2, and sounds like Team Fortress 2, but it is not Team Fortress 2. What you're seeing here is Blitz Brigade, the new upcoming game from Gameloft. Yes, it appears the developer has finally gotten around to imitating Valve's smash hit first-person shooter. Let's not be too cynical, though. The trailer looks pretty neat.

Team Fortress 2 has a distinctive cell-shaded animation style, and Blitz Brigade looks to be going in the same direction. This is a multiplayer shooter with a five character classes to choose from.

Final Angry Birds Star Wars Trailer Is Released, Shows Off More Lasers, Wookiees, And No, Nothing About Episode VII

Posted by Eric Ravenscraft in Games, News

Yes, we know, Disney bought Lucasfilm. No, there aren't going to be any spoilers about the plot, director, amount of direct involvement from George Lucas, or any other details about the upcoming Episode VII movie, no matter how much you (meaning me) want there to be so you (again, me) can stop worrying. What we do have is birds with force powers, giant flying fuzzballs, and, allegedly, the droids you're looking for.

Now that we can see a bit more of the gameplay, it looks like this is going to share some similarities both with the basic, land-locked Angry Birds game, as well as Angry Birds Space.

Gameloft Releases A New Trailer For Wild Blood, Promises The Game Will Arrive On Android 'In September'

Posted by Eric Ravenscraft in Games, News

We're getting closer and closer to Gameloft's newest release title, Wild Blood. We've seen teasers and trailers for the game leading up to this point. Finally, though, we've gotten something resembling a release date and you're in it. Wild Blood will land on the Play Store "in September," so you can expect it anytime between the end of the month and right now!

...Okay, maybe not right now. But soon!

The trailer shows us more gameplay and a bit of the plot. It seems Sir Lancelot is making an appearance in a story that doesn't sound enough like Diablo III to warrant any accusations, but definitely has a similar feel.

First Gameplay Trailer Of Gameloft's Wild Blood Released, Coming To Android "Very Soon"

Posted by John Thompson in Games, News

Gameloft has released the first gameplay trailer for its upcoming Android game, Wild Blood. The game will be the first Gameloft title based on the Unreal Engine, and the action-packed, blood-filled trailer certainly doesn't disappoint.

This is the second trailer to be released for the game, with a teaser trailer being unveiled a few weeks ago. Gameloft has promised that the game will be coming "very soon" to Android. It will likely be followed by the company's other title based on the Unreal Engine, March of Heroes.

If the gameplay trailer has whetted your appetite, watch it a little bit closer for "a new hint about the story".

MadFinger Games Puts Out Mind-Blowing Trailer For The Soon-To-Be-Released Shadowgun

Posted by Jaroslav Stekl in Games, News, Videos

Unity3D has paved the road for some seriously stunning mobile games, and as smartphones and tablets continue to become more powerful, 3D shooters and other graphics-intensive apps will finally begin to reach their full potential.

A perfect example of this is MadFinger's latest project: Shadowgun, which we last saw in May. The OTS (over-the-shoulder) shooter puts you in the shoes of John Slade, an assassin hired to surreptitiously sneak into Dr. Edgar Simon's heavily guarded mansion.

Of course, the game's graphics are the real center of the hubbub - they're just that ~~good~~ breathtaking:
