- Grab our latest ARPG with the Eko Hack'N'Slash Bundle! - 3 March 2026
Hello everyone, We hope you've been keeping well. At EKO Software, we've been working on a spiritual successor to Warhammer: Chaosbane called Dragonkin: The Banished for over a year now. The core selling points are the Ancestral Grid, which lets you upgrade and adjust your abilities based on modifiers attached to fragments, your companion pet, the Wyrmling, which influences your attacks, and the city of Montescail, which can be upgraded and developed, giving buffs and advantages to any character that calls the city home. Throughout Early Access, we've made numerous changes based on player feedback. We've removed the generator / spender system, reworked the city progression, introduced multiplayer, and added numerous quality of life features that should appeal to fans of the genre. We're getting closer to the 1.0 launch of Dragonkin: The Banished and to celebrate we've set up a bundle fo…

- Intergalactic The Heretic Prophet may be the next big PS5 game, but to YouTube it’s just priest beef and memes - 14 February 2024
Good news, fans of big games companies doing things that might eventually lead to something interesting at some vague point in the future: Sony Interactive Entertainment has filed a trademark for ‘Intergalactic The Heretic Prophet’ in the US. What is Intergalactic The Heretic Prophet, you ask? Well, nobody - likely aside from Sony itself - seems to have a clue, aside from that those are four words the company seemingly fancies having the option to use for something. Here’s the listing for said trademark , filed on February 12, which Gematsu suggests will be a bit of an out of character move for a modern games company if it does turn out to be the name of a project that’s yet to be announced. We don’t think the name screams the kind of thing that'd necessarily be up the alley of one of Sony’s biggest studios, but it could be something a smaller team under the console maker’s umbrella, su…
