World War Z, the co-op, third-person shooter, is finally getting a release date: April 16. Announced all the way back in December of 2017, it's been a while since we've heard much about the game's progress, but the impressive zombie tech behind the large hordes seems to have remained intact from that initial showing.
The game is co-op up to four player, so it seems to be interested in picking up the slack for the seemingly defunct Left 4 Dead series. We'll just have to wait a couple more months to see if it can match those games' staying power when it launches on PS4, Xbox One, and the Epic Games Store.

For many Lovecraft enthusiasts, The Sinking City has been a grim delight lurking on the horizon. The game was initially due out March 21. However, that looks like that might no longer be the case.
The astute folks at PC Gamer have noticed the release date for the game has disappeared. Where March 21 once was, a new description appears: 2019.
No word yet from Frogwares or publisher Bigben Interactive but it looks like you'll have to wait a little while longer to get your supernatural sleuth on.

Arguably the biggest reveal of the trailer, however, is MewTwo, who bursts through a gigantic exploding Pikachu balloon in dramatic fashion.

Digital storefront GOG (short for Good Old Games) has laid off "around a dozen" people. A representative reached out to Kotaku to confirm the news but also cautioned against the layoffs being seen as a bleak sign of things to come for the store.
“Letting people go is never easy,” the company told Kotaku. “We have been rearranging certain teams since October 2018, effecting in closing around a dozen of positions last week. At the same time, since the process started we have welcomed nearly twice as many new team members, and currently hold 20 open positions.” However, Kotaku also notes that an anonymous employee with the company suggested that GOG's financials were more in the red than the company was letting it go.
The company also announced that its Fair Package Program, which gave costumers from countries where a title they purchased was more expensive than its country of origin store credit to make up the difference, is ending.

It all starts with dreams of a rabbit in a tuxedo. Ni No Kuni II's The Tale of a Timeless Tome DLC starts when Evan and his friends investigate and find the rabbit, calling himself The Conductor, at the Goldpaw Inn. The subsequent adventure – releasing on March 19 – introduces a new battle arena, combat styles, and more.
The two new Methods are Wizard's Companion and Martha's Method, the first of which harks back to the first game, and you may need them in the new Solosseum Slog arena taking on powerful enemies for new items.
Fans of the series will also like the DLC's first screens, which hint a wedding for Queen Nerea and Nella.
