With the X019 event just around the corner, the upcoming and uncomfortably squishy horror PC game Carrion has been unveiled to be releasing on Xbox One too. What’s more, it’ll also be playable at X019 for those in attendance.

An awe-inspiring open environment looks to plays host to the acrobatic dogfighting escapades in The Falconeer and Wired Productions have just announced that it’ll land on Xbox One, as well as PC, in 2020. It’s even set to debut at the upcoming Xbox focused event, X019!

The totally chaotic and immensely fun Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz has re-emerged from the gaming vaults for a HD remaster on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. Will you be monkeying around with AiAi, MeeMee and the rest of the gang in order to retrieve the Golden Banana Bunch?

Having actively avoided horror games, and anything remotely scary, for many years due to a lack of enjoyment found in being scared witless, I figured it’s time to delve back into the recently flourishing genre.
