this war of mine

Survival game This War of Mine got a free update on PC today to celebrate the game’s five year anniversary. The update adds “a new character, new classic scenario, and more quests and events on the locations known from Stories episode,” as well as graphical overhauls.

The third episode for This War of Mine’s Stories DLC drops on August 6. Called Fading Embers, it’ll follow the story of Anja as she’s faced with decisions about saving people or the things they’ve created featuring non-linear gameplay and multiple endings. The game is currently free on the Epic Game Store. 

This War of Mine: Stories—Father’s Promise is out today on PC. It’s the first of a planned ‘season’ of story-oriented DLC for This War of Mine.

The next game from the creators This War Of Mine is Frostpunk, a game about steam-powered survival on a frozen world. Slated for PC next year. Scant details. Devs 11Bit say the game “utilizes strategy & management elements [but] revolves around empathy & devision-making rather than optimization & resource management.”

Wartime survival game This War of Mine is out today for iOS and Android tablets. A depressing game, but it looks at war from a point-of-view rarely explored in video games, so it’s definitely worth a look.

The bleak survival sim This War Of Mine just released some new DLC that adds "unique street art" to the game. All proceeds go to the charity organization War Child, developer 11 bit Studios said. Check out the DLC on the game's Steam page. Read more
