Devolver Digital’s non-E3 2021 showcase, Devolver MaxPass+, was just as crazy and satirical as we’ve come to expect. Taking aim at the video game industry and the subscription-based monetization trend, the game publisher detailed their insane idea to just let customers pay for the game they want. We told you it was crazy! (Watch it for yourself here.)

Launching July 20th on Xbox Series S/X, Xbox One and PC, Death’s Door thrusts players into a quirky and curious world where Crows are in charge of collecting the souls of the dead.

7Phantom Abyss
Launching June 22nd [PC]
Launching June 22nd into Steam Early Access, Phantom Abyss is a massive asynchronous multiplayer game that casts players into procedurally-generated temples and tasks them with retrieving the sacred relics hidden within deadly chambers. Intrepid adventurers will dodge scores of hidden traps, leap treacherous chasms, and flee relentless guardians through branching paths until one of the relics are claimed or the devices of death overwhelm them. Be warned, you only get one attempt at each temple and failure or settling for a lesser relic means you will never see that temple again…
8Shadow Warrior 3
Launching 2021 [PC + PlayStation 4 & Xbox One]
Shadow Warrior 3 launches the offbeat first-person shooter series to the next level with a seamless blend of fast-paced gunplay, razor-sharp melee combat, and a spectacular free-running movement system. Coming to PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2021.
