Inferno, the original antagonist that kicked-off decades of struggle for power in both Soul Blade and SOULCALIBUR returns to SOULCALIBUR VI to wreak havoc and deal death to all challengers. As the evil spirit of Soul Edge, Inferno is fearsome, possessing deep knowledge of fighting techniques which he mimics with uncanny skill, allowing him to use any weapon and fighting style with a phenomenal degree of expertise. Inferno’s power defies standard means of measurement, if one were only comparing skill and weaponry, then Inferno easily transcends any of Soul Edge’s previous vessels.

Satisfactory Announces Much Anticipated Closed Alpha Date
Purveyors of fine video games such as Goat Simulator, Sanctum, and Deep Rock Galactic, Coffee Stain, have announced the launch date of their closed alpha for the upcoming Satisfactory, which looks like a delicious blend of Factorio and No Man’s Sky.
The alpha is going to start with a mere 200 people, and will be focused on the first hour of game-play initially. As time progresses and bugs are found and fixed, more people will be added, and the focus will likewise expand. The initial phases of the alpha will also be single player, but with full intention of a segue into multiplayer in the near future. Late game technologies will also be hidden away, so as not to spoil the entire game. Coffee stain is placing a ‘soft NDA’, meaning they request that you not share any digital media, but you can talk about it to your partner.
Coffee Stain intends to launch the alpha October 17th, but with the caveat that it may get pushed back if unforeseen circumstances occur. You can sign up for the alpha at the Satisfactory main website.

Northgard’s Most Expansive Launch, ‘Ragnarok’ Launches Today for Free
The largest update to the Viking strategy game, Northgard hits today and on top of that, it’s free. The most expansive update since launch, Ragnarok comes with a wealth of content, like a cataclysmic-themed map with new tiles and events, a new neutral faction and the addition of a new gameplay mechanic in Military Paths. By defeating enemies or losing a unit, players gain experience points to use on one of three Military Paths – Tactician, Guardian, and Conqueror. Each has three unlockable skills and offer powerful choices to a players army, and allows greater specialization/playstyle options. The latest patch notes have the full details.
“We are very happy to see Northgard grow and be able to offer our most expansive update since the game’s launch for free,” declares Sebastien Vidal, CEO and co-founder at Shiro Games. “We still have a lot of cool ideas in store, and our community can expect more content updates in the upcoming months.”
Other new features to Northgard:
-
New Ragnarok map: promising to be a testing challenge to beginners and veterans alike, this cataclysmic-themed map comes with new tiles and events illustrating the devastating results of the end times. No fertile land remains, and farming is now impossible, with prospective clan leaders having to plan carefully if they want to survive and stand victorious on this demanding new map.
-
New Volcano tile: occupying the centre of the map, the Volcano will violently erupt at random times, throwing massive boulders across the map. They are both a blessing and a curse, as each rock crashing in a clan’s territory can be mined for valuable resources during four months. If players fail to do so, each stone left unchecked will turn into a powerful and extremely aggressive Rock Golem.
-
Ancient Graveyard tile: home to the souls of fallen Viking warriors, these hallowed grounds can be colonized and studied, resulting in the recruitment of Spectral Warriors boasting very high defence. While such supernatural allies can prove useful, Vikings are highly superstitious and the clan will suffer a happiness penalty as long as these ghostly beings remain in the player’s territory.
-
Fallen Sailors event: as the apocalypse draws near, the countless souls of the Fallen Sailors drowned during the long journey to Northgard are eager to return to the world of the living. This event can occur at any moment and will see a wave of Spectral Warriors invade and haunt the players’ shores, attacking any Viking in sight.
-
The Myrkalfars: a new neutral faction of Northgard, these dark elves are particularly aggressive and will raid random clans every year, stealing their resources over time. To be spared by future raids, players can choose to trade with and befriend the Myrkalfar, making a good amount of Krowns in the process. Cooperation is not the only way, however, and, while it may prove challenging, any clan able to raze the dark elves’ camp will be able to recover some of the stolen resources.
