Mike Wilson leaves DeepWell

The Elden Ring community was already rabid after a surprise Elden Ring DLC image revealing a fresh take on an old enemy wielding what looks like a new weapon type, and now FromSoftware producer Yasuhiro Kitao's gone and dropped another bit of teaser art that looks exactly like Bloodborne, to the point that I wasn't even sure if it was Elden Ring for a minute. 

Developer Pugstorm’s mining adventure Core Keeper has been going strong in Early Access, and it is en route to releasing in full on August 27, 2024. The news comes from a recent blog post by the developers, and you can check it out in its entirety through here and check out the release date trailer down below.

One of the best parts of our jobs at Polygon is recommending awesome new games to play. Whether it’s indie games, cozy games, board games, or just the best of the year, we’re always trying to introduce readers to new and exciting picks. Lists are a great way to share a variety of games in a short amount of time. But sometimes it’s fun to do something more personally curated.

Marc Whitten is going to be leaving engine giant Unity later this year.

Unity's chief product and technology officer Marc Whitten will resign from his role on June 1, and will leave the firm by the end of 2024.

Two and a half years on from its exclusive release on Nintendo Switch, your chance to buy Shin Megami Tensei 5 through the eShop is about to come to an end. Atlus has confirmed that the base game and all of its DLC will be removed from the eShop at 11:59 pm on June 13, 2024. After that point, you will no longer be able to buy the game directly through Nintendo, but if you own Shin Megami Tensei 5 and its DLC, you will still be able to play it, and presumably re-download it if you've bought it in the past.

We love movie recommendations here at Polygon. But we also love recommending TV shows. Whether it’s horror, sci-fi, miniseries, comedy, thrillers, or just the best of the year, we’re always trying to introduce readers to new and exciting shows they’ll love. And now — after much movie to-do — we want to find the perfect TV show for you. (We mean you.)

A recent update for procgen whodunnit sim Shadows of Doubt added "Sharpshooter Assassins" with high-powered rifles to the game's glowering alternate-1980s cities, with players having to work out the killer's vantage point by deducing a bullet's trajectory, before proceeding to a secondary crime scene to search for a murder weapon and witnesses. The prospect of snipers certainly adds menace to the game's forensic sandboxing. The trouble is, the shooters aren't always as sharp as they could be.

Even as Nic spent this morning writing lovingly about frogs, I was watching trailers of frogs disintegrating beneath an unstoppable ant tsunami. The game in question is Empires Of The Undergrowth, an RTS from developers Slug Disco and Manor Lords publisher Hooded Horse. The 1.0 version launches on June 7th, after almost eight years in early access during which Empires Of The Undergrowth has accumulated positive user reviews with truly antlike meticulousness. Here's the release date trailer, which you should not watch if you dislike seeing various larger insects and small animals getting eaten alive by ants.

Unfortunately for PlayStation Plus Extra subscribers, it seems an additional seven games are leaving the service, bringing the total to a whopping 34 games that are on their way out. PlayStation Plus Extra games are removed on a monthly basis, but 34 is still a lot of games to see go removed all at one time. All 34 games are expected to be removed from the PlayStation Plus Extra tier on Tuesday, May 21.

A new image from Marvel’s has been released, giving fans their first clear look at the new suit will wear.
