Last Year: The Nightmare Review
The title of Last Year: The Nightmare may be short on inspiration, but its take on asymmetric survival horror multiplayer has plenty. Those who have played Friday the 13th or Dead by Daylight will be familiar with the premise of one powerful player hunting down several weak ones as they try to escape, but Last Year: The Nightmare introduces a couple new twists that make it among the best of this burgeoning sub-genre thus far. Whether you play as the killer or one of the hapless teenagers, its action is tense and strategic to the end. That said, with only three maps, no progression system, and intermittent glitches, it does have an air of early access to it at the start of its 90-day exclusive period on the Discord Store.

Monster Hunter: World Gets Assassin's Creed Crossover Event
Yesterday Capcom stealth-launched a new crossover event for Monster Hunter: World, this time crossing over with the Assassin’s Creed series.
The “SDF: Silent, Deadly, and Fierce” event, which lasts until January 10, has players facing off against “nimble, fierce, and impetuous monsters” to earn Senu’s Feather. The event features a new armor that makes players look like Bayek from Assassin’s Creed Origins, and the Assassin’s Hood tool, which resembles the outfit Ezio wore in Assassin’s Creed II and grants additional damage when attacking monsters out of stealth, as well as additional movement speed while running, climbing, and crouch-running.
The event is currently not available on PC, but will arrive “at a later date.”

From Software Working On Two Unannounced Games
This year, most of the talk surrounding From Software was focused on the reveal of its new title, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (and, to a lesser extent, Déraciné). However, the studio behind games like Dark Souls and Bloodborne has apparently been even busier than it seemed.
In an interview with 4gamer (and translated by Gematsu), From Software’s Hidetaka Miyazaki says that the company has two unannounced games in the works – though fans will have to wait a bit for any details. Apart from saying that the games would be in the style of From Software’s previous work, Miyazaki did not reveal any specifics regarding either project.
Despite the lack of info, this leaves some interesting room for speculation. Maybe that Bloodborne sequel exists after all? Maybe another Souls game is coming? Or maybe there’s a new franchise brewing? Whatever the titles end up being, From Software has a legion of loyal (if sometimes masochistic) fans eager to throw themselves at the challenge.

Bloodstained: Ritual Of The Night Canceled On Mac And Linux
When Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night originally met its Kickstarter funding goal back in 2015, the plan was for the game to release on PS4, Xbox One, Wii U, Vita, Windows, Mac, and Linux. Since then, the Wii U version changed to Switch instead, and the Vita version was canceled outright – and the list of planned platforms just shrunk a bit more. In the latest development update, creator Koji Igarashi announced that the Mac and Linux versions have also been canceled.
“We have made this tough decision due to challenges of supporting middleware and online feature support and making sure we deliver on the rest of the scope for the game,” Igarashi says. If you were a backer hoping to get the game on Mac or Linux, you can send the team an email to change to a different platform.
Not all news out of Bloodstained is grim. Igarashi also says: “Development has reached its peak — we are currently checking the performance of Bloodstained on each platform. Overall, we are done with enemy placement and entering the adjustment phase.” After some delays, it seems like the 2019 release is attainable – especially with the recent news that developer WayForward is assisting on the project.

Game of the Year 2018: #4 – Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age
Best quest.
What a game Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age is. Just when you think it’s over, there’s another 50 hours left. Then maybe another 50. But somehow, throughout all that time, it still manages to keep you on your toes. Its overall plot may be cliche, but the way that it’s told and the many twists that it conjures deserve a huge amount of praise.
Charm and character are key to the Dragon Quest series, and Dragon Quest XI has both in abundance. It’s hard not to fall in love with its colourful world and excellent cast, and there are so many memorable moments peppered throughout its story. Put simply, the game’s an absolute delight to be a part of.

Déraciné Easter Eggs Not Indicative of Bloodborne 2
Miyazaki reckons developer went overboard.
As it’s wont to do, the Internet lost its mind last month when PlayStation VR exclusive Déraciné launched chock-full of Bloodborne Easter eggs. Many felt that it was evidence of an impending sequel, a sentiment reinforced by news that lauded Japanese developer From Software is working on two unannounced titles.
According to creator Hidetaka Miyazaki, though, the Easter eggs were just that: Easter eggs. “I’m sorry for getting everyone’s hopes up, but we only put in those Easter eggs for fun,” he said. “Many people on Déraciné’s staff, and of course myself, really love Bloodborne, so we wanted to put references to it. But we went overboard. We’re reflecting on it.”

Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? – Issue 252
Once more in 2018.
All that build up and anticipation, and Christmas is done and dusted already. Of course, there’s a chance that the bearded gift bearer may have left you some new games to play, and that’s why we’re here once again with your regularly scheduled WAYP – the last of the year, in fact.
Sammy Barker, Editor
For the first time in a fair few years, I haven’t given myself a designated Christmas game, so I’ve just been pottering along in some of my favourite sports titles, which has been liberating. I’ve been messing around a little bit in Jurassic World Evolution, but it’s a bit more restrictive than I’d like it to be. I’m currently trying to resist the urge to buy Beat Saber.
