- Blood Bowl: Death Zone sprints out of early access and into the end zone - 10 July 2019
It’s odd to think that Blood Bowl is such a regular fixture on PC now that we’ve got side-games quietly coming out, but that’s exactly what Blood Bowl: Death Zone is. Exiting early access today, it’s a budget-priced real time spinoff of Cyanide Studio’s tabletop adaptation series. Two players, RTS-style controls and fast, five-minute four-a-side matches. You set the plays, then micro-manage one player at a time. It reminds me of Chaos League, the Blood Bowl-alike that got the studio assigned to the series in the first place. Still, the fantasy (American) football scene is a busy place now. (more…)

- Blood Bowl: Death Zone is free to play this weekend - 28 September 2018
Blood Bowl: Death Zone is a real-time, 1v1 take on the Blood Bowl fantasy football series in which small teams square off in five-minute, almost-no-holds-barred contests. It went into Early Access in July with eight teams, eight unique Star Players, and a $10 price tag.  (The Steam listing describes the Death Zone challenge as a "popular pre-game show" at Blood Bowl matches, and so I guess it's priced accordingly compared to the full game .)  It's actually on sale right now for half price, but if even that's too much of a commitment for you, you can also play it for free through Sunday. Head over to Steam, click "Play Game," wait for the 1.8GB install, and you're off to the races. Or the murderous football game, I suppose.    Blood Bowl: Death Zone will be free to play until 1 pm PT/4 pm ET on September 30. Coincidentally or not (and I'm pret…
