I've never been a Dark Souls fanatic, but I appreciate the vibrant new mini-genre of Souls-likes it's helped inspire. The Surge is one of those, and from what I saw at E3 2018, The Surge 2 looks like it will be a big improvement with some new ideas of its own.
Devolver Digital is bringing FromSoftware's cult-classic mech action game Metal Wolf Chaos to modern platforms. During their E3 livestream yesterday, the publisher announced Metal Wolf Chaos XD, a remastered version of one of the Xbox's wildest games.
When Dark Souls released in 2011, it helped solidify a new genre of action RPG. Since then, players have held onto the game, with fight clubs and massive, yearly revisitations. Dark Souls is more ritual than game at this point, and it was only inevitable that we'd get a remaster. I think I'm ok with that.

I'm playing Dark Souls Remastered this week and while I haven't finished the game yet, it's been wonderful to revisit the land of Lordran.
