Here’s your first peek at what the Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons director is up to next

By Adam Rosenberg December 6, 2014

Mixed among the many world premiere trailers that debuted at the 2014 Game Awards was a quiet, little video from Electronic Arts. More talk than flash, EA’s surprise of the night left many excited nonetheless: Hazelight, a studio founded by Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons director Josef Fares, is partnered with the publisher on its first, as-yet-untitled game.

Fares worked with Starbreeze on Brothers, delivering a cooperative game built for just one player, with each control stick on a gamepad controlling one of two brothers in a story-driven puzzle game. He speaks very generally in the video about his plans for Hazelight’s debut, but it ends with a brief glimpse that’s meant to set the mood: Two men, camped out in a moving train’s freight car, staring out the open door at a moonlit mountain range.

How to sign up for the Hades 2 playtest

We first saw Hades 2 last year when it was announced, but it has yet to receive a release date. We know it will first be coming to early access, just like the first game, but the only timeframe we have is the second quarter of 2024. It appears that Supergiant might be closing in on that date, however, as you can now sign up for the first playtest and experience the game even before it comes to early access. This technical test is a said to be a major step toward early access to resolve any technical problems before a wider audience can play. Here's how you can sign up to be part of a small team selected to play the game before anyone else.

The best Fallout 4 mods

The Fallout games, at least since Fallout 3, have been absolutely massive games in both scale and popularity. The post-nuclear-war setting is rife with interesting stories to experience and monsters to kill. Fallout 4 was the last single-player entry in the series before Fallout 76 took the game into a persistent multiplayer experience. A large appeal of these games is how you are able to actually role-play and immerse yourself in the game world, which isn't so easy with other players jumping around in their underwear. Thanks to mods, it has never been a better time to revisit the last "pure" Fallout game.

Just like Skyrim, Fallout 4 mods are incredibly popular. Some are inspired to fix the numerous bugs and glitches Bethesda games have become famous for, while others look to add new features. As open and dynamic as the base game is, mods just open the door to an almost endless supply of tools you can use to extend the life of your game. With so many mods available, it can be a little overwhelming to know where to start. We've sorted through all the best Fallout 4 mods out there and came up with the best ones you should install before stepping out of the vault once again.
