The Witcher’s multiplayer spin-off might be rebooting development
Last year publisher CD Projekt Red announced Project Sirius, a spin-off to The Witcher from Molasses Flood – the studio behind Flame In The Flood and Drakes Hollow. But it seems we might need to wait a while more to see the untitled project, as it looks like it’s getting rebooted to start development from scratch.
Persona 5 is getting a mobile spin-off with a new cast of characters
You’re reading that right, Persona 5 is being released again, this time as a mobile and PC game, though it stars a new cast of characters.
If I had a nickel for every time that Persona 5 was released again, I don’t even know how many nickels I’d have because it’s happened so many times. I do know I’d have another one though, as Persona 5: The Phantom X was just revealed, an adaptation of specifically the fifth entry in the series coming to iOS, Android, and Windows. There is potentially a bit of a catch though, as currently there’s no word on a release for the game outside of China.
As reported by IGN, the spin-off will receive a playtest that kicks off March 29 in China, and is apparently a full on sequel to the original game. This time you’ll be playing as a new group of Phantom Thieves (sorry to those that love the original crew), and will have “desire” as its main theme. Being a mobile game, it will be free-to-play with in-app purchases, though how those will manifest isn’t clear just yet.
Super Meat Boy Spin-Off Puzzle Game Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine Announced
Thunderful, Headup, and Team Meat have announced Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine, a spin-off game that takes place within the Super Meat Boy universe. It’ll come to PC, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S in 2023.
Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine is a Puyo Puyo and Tetris-like puzzle game that includes traps like chainsaws, missiles, and other deadly hazards into the fray from Dr. Fetus. It features familiar levels from the Super Meat Boy and Super Meat Boy Forever locations, as well as over 100 hand-crafted levels for players to take on and beat.
The events of Dr. Fetus’ Mean Meat Machine take place right after those in Super Meat Boy Forever. He has collected a DNA sample of Meat Boy and wants to make clones of him, but since the sample isn’t perfect, the clones come out less than ideal. Through his levels and traps, Dr. Fetus will do away with the imperfect Meat Boy clones until he finds the perfect one.

“Much more” to be shared about The Last of Us multiplayer spin-off this year
The Last of Us’ upcoming multiplayer spin-off is a game we’ll “hear much more about” this year, according to TLOU director, Neil Druckmann.
Talking about the game in a ‘spoilercast’ for HBO’s TV adaptation of The Last of Us Part 1 (thanks, GamesRadar), Druckmann explains more details on the multiplayer title are coming soon. This spin-off is also Naughty Dog’s “next big title.”
“It’s an interesting experience for me because it’s the first The Last of Us game where I’m not a primary writer, I’m not the primary director,” says Druckmann during the spoilercast. “What the team has put together is so cool. It’s very different from what I would do, but that’s part of the exciting thing about it, with other people playing in this world.”
