Running crazy. A week after debuting a new gameplay teaser at Sony’s State of Play, Capcom unveiled a far more dramatic teaser for the forthcoming Monster Hunter Wilds. Fans of MonHun will, however, have to wait a long time since the game won’t be released until 2025.

An Update from M-Corp
Skate wins the prize for the most bizarre Summer Game Fest 2024 trailer. No, really. The fourth installment of EA’s Skate series began with a rather perplexing sketch starring Tim Robinson from I Think You Should Leave. After the act ended, the audience’s vocal confusion was evident, and it wasn’t until the video that we all let out a collective “Ohhhh” in realization that it was a Skate trailer. Haha.

Sonic X: Shadow Generations
The year of Shadow (the Hedgehog) is 2024.I had fun playing Sonic Generations, and I’m looking forward to Sonic x Shadow Generations, which is a darker, edgier successor. Sonic x Shadow Generations offers a slew of new levels for Shadow the Hedgehog to play, just in time for the Sonic 3 film. However, we shouldn’t get our hopes up too high thinking that Keanu Reeves would feature in this one. October 25 is the release date for Sonic X Shadow Generations for Xbox, PC, and PlayStation.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
Power Rangers, go! My Summer Game Fest bingo sheet did not include a new Power Rangers game, and based on the ecstatic response from the audience, it seems that not many others did either. It seems like Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind from Digital Eclipse captures the silly action and humor that made Power Rangers so popular in the past and even now. I’m eager to play it later this year on PC and consoles.

LEGO Horizon Adventures Trailer
A particularly adorable unveiling during Summer Game Fest included Horizon’s post-apocalyptic future rendered in Lego style. Lego Horizon Adventures is the name of the game, which seems to be a lighthearted action-adventure game based in the Horizon world.

Lego already published Horizon Forbidden West in 2022, so this isn’t the first time the two have worked together. However, it seems Sony wants to make the brand one of its main attractions. In addition to a sequel for the PS5 (and PS4), the original game is also being turned into a Netflix series.
