The last time we brought up the text-based sci-fi RPG cyberpunkdreams (no capitalization), it had a vague debut window of sometime in the summer. Turns out it’ll be a bit sooner than that…indie studio Late Night Games just announced it’ll get the game out the door on May 14. Even though cyberpunkdreams is mostly text, don’t sell it short — it’s an immense project that’s taken Late Night years to build. The setting is Cincinnati in a dark cyberpunk future that may remind you of a recent high-profile bomb. It’s also set in a metropolis controlled by corporations and surrounded by a wasteland. But it’s 2090, a few years later than 2077, and considerably less glitchy. The story you get depends on the choices you make, and there are hundreds of branching paths to experience. You are whoever you choose to be — Late Night mentions possibilities like “a smooth-talking socialite, a hawk-eyed purveyor of secrets, a cybernetically augmented street tough, a master hacker or anything in-between.” cyberpunkdreams boasts over

Stealth-Action RPG Disjunction Launches January 28

Sold Out and Ape Tribe Games will be releasing Disjunction onto modern platforms later this month. It’s a sci-fi cyberpunk RPG where you control three different characters as they seek answers behind a secret conspiracy in 2048 New York City. You choose how you want to save the city: either sneak around corridors and gather evidence while avoiding detection, or pull out your futuristic weaponry and go through your enemies to find the truth. The choices you make will shape the storyline, and we don’t just mean passive vs aggressive: you’ll have branching options along the way, like factions you can choose to either destroy or convince to join your team. “We are massive fans of classic stealth-action games and ultramodern fast-paced shooters, and have put our all into combining the two genres in Disjunction,” said Erwan LeCun, Co-Founder of Ape Tribe Games. “Disjunction is our love letter to cyberpunk, and we hope that the game’s conspiracy-laden narrative and stylistic visuals will appeal to fans of the genre, while giving

Dazzler Media will be releasing their new dystopian sci-fi tale LX 2048 on all current formats (DVD, Blu-Ray, digital) later this month. As is standard with dystopian stories, it’s the future and the world is trashed. But the cited reason is a strange one: “the sun has become so toxic that people can no longer leave their houses in daytime.” The sun? That’s not possible. Do they actually mean “the environment has become so polluted that the atmosphere no longer protects the Earth from UV rays”? It’s the only thing that makes sense. The sun ITSELF can’t become more dangerous than it already is. Anyway, thanks to…uh, the toxic sun, everyone has to live, communicate and do business in virtual worlds now. Our main character seeks a better future for his family, as he doesn’t have much of one. Stricken with a terminal illness, he’s on a quest to solve the question of what it means to be human in a cyberworld. LX 2048 stars James D’Arcy (Dunkirk, Agent Carter),

Mandao Returns Debuts On Amazon Prime

Mandao Returns Debuts On Amazon Prime

Mandao has come back, if you were aware he was gone. Indie Rights announced today writer/director Scott Dunn has returned to the world he introduced with 2019’s Mandao of the Dead. The sequel is called, appropriately enough, Mandao Returns. Both movies are classified as sci-fi horror comedies. Who’s Mandao? He’s an astral projecting time traveler who doesn’t really take his job seriously and more often than not uses his powers to just slack off and mess around. He spends his time mostly with his adult nephew Jackson, scheming cousin Andy and cabbie friend Fer. It’s Christmastime, at least in the time period Mandao is currently in, and he’s attempting to contact the ghost of his father to have a chat. But he bungles it up and brings back the spirit of B-movie star Aura Garcia instead. Aura would rather be alive than dead, and when she finds out what Mandao can do, she enlists him to go back in time and prevent her death. The resulting temporal changes cause a

First off, before you read any further, it should go without saying that this article contains spoilers for the ending of The Mandalorian’s second season. So if you haven’t seen the ending yet, I’m not quite sure what you’re doing on a page with a headline like this, but if you proceed we can’t be held responsible for the surprise being ruined. So that being said, let’s proceed… We were expecting, and fully prepared for, Mando’s arc with Grogu/Baby Yoda/The Child to stretch out for at least four seasons. Imagine our surprise when the whole thing wrapped up in episode 16, with the appearance of none other than Luke Skywalker to take Grogu under his care. That seems like a pretty definitive end, so what’s next? The post-credits scene told us: we were shown Jabba’s palace, and Bib Fortuna reigning as a space gangster king now that his master was strangled by Bikini Leia. He only got to enjoy it for a few years…Boba Fett entered the dwelling after his

Earlier this year, cryptic teasers started popping up for something called Greatland.
