The Future Games Show: Spring Showcase promised a number of new game reveals, alongside fresh gameplay for already-announced titles, developer talks, and more. With eight ‘world premiere’ reveals promised, it was certainly a show worth tuning in for – and it helped filled out the sparse gaming calendar for 2022 and beyond.

Here’s everything announced at the Future Games: Spring Showcase event.

This article had been updated since its original publication.

The Time I Have Left is a spooky body horror adventure

The first World Premiere trailer showed off spooky visions in a grim sci-fi world, with oozing bodies and surreal, multi-limbed pathways in space. The strange, so-called ‘utopia’ in the game certainly doesn’t seem that way. There’s plenty of odd body horror in this trailer, and plenty for the game’s protagonist to overcome.

It launches in 2023.

Gun Jam is a musical Overwatch-style shooter

The next game, a cel-shaded, rhythm-based first person shooter appears to have a lot in common with Overwatch, in terms of its frenetic gameplay. But with a rocking beat, there’ll be an added layer of challenge while you run and gun. It looks very frantic, very colourful, and a bunch of fun.

It’s coming soon to PC.

You play golf with cars in Turbo Golf Racing

Another wacky golf simulator is on the way – and this time, it’s a cross between Rocket League and What the Golf?. In Turbo Golf Racing, you’ll become a tiny car hitting a giant golf ball – it’s a simple and very endearing premise.

The game lands on PC, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S ‘soon’, with a beta on the way.

A44 Games shows off Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

The New Zealand-based developers behind Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn revealed more about the upcoming game in a fresh behind-the-scenes look at how it’s progressing.

The game launches for consoles and PC in 2022.

Crimesight is a futuristic Sherlock Holmes adaptation

A ‘futuristic social deduction game’ starring a sci-fi Sherlock Holmes and an AI Moriarty is on the way, in the form of Crimesight. It features a colourful cast of anime-style characters in a ‘foreseen future’ where you must solve murders on a Cluedo-like board. There’s certainly a lot of Persona influence in the art style here.

It lands on 14 April 2022 for PC.

Midnight Ghost Hunt will have you hunting ghosts in the Victorian era

Midnight Ghost Hunt is a game where you’ll take part in a spooky, Victorian-era skirmish to find and defeat a number of terrifying ghosts. Expect plenty of jump scares, flying furniture, futuristic guns, and extremely spooky spectres.

It lands on PC on 31 March 2022.

Death Stranding: Director’s Cut launches on PC shortly

Death Stranding got a fresh trailer at the Future Games Show, showing off the delightfully creepy adventure in all its grimy glory.

The Director’s Cut is coming to PC on 30 March 2022.

Demeo got a live-action trailer

Demeo, an upcoming digital board game, got a delightful showing at the Future Games Show.

The new trailer showed off exactly how voice chat works in the game, and how you can play together with friends in a streamlined digital tabletop experience. It’s not quite the same as playing together, but it should kick off some excellent, Dungeons & Dragons style adventures with your crew.

It arrives in PC early access on 7 April 2022.

Dorf Romantik is a real gem

The hex-based Dorf Romantik looks like a real delight – this tabletop-like builder allows players to create a cutesy, colourful world, all rendered in pastel hues.

It launches out of early access on PC on 28 April 2022.

Alterborn is a new adventure game for PlayStation and PC

The next trailer was the World Premiere for Alterborn, a spooky adventure game which takes players through gloomy underground worlds filled with red, pulsing ooze (video games love their ooze). Not much is known about the game, but it looks delightfully moody and atmospheric.

Following this, hosts Ashly Burch and John MacMillan encouraged viewers to check out new game demos now available at the Future Games Show hub on Steam.

Sengoku Dynasty is a snow-capped adventure

The next game is a gorgeous tale set in what looks to be feudal-era Japan. There’s gorgeous houses, cherry blossom trees, snow-capped mountains, and spooky crows on the horizon. The trailer is narrated by a young girl who appears to be in a lot of trouble.

It’s coming to PC in 2022.

Deliver Us Mars is a sequel to Deliver Us The Moon

The next trailer is a big mystery – it starts off with a sweeping, grim shot of a traveller wandering through vast sands. They grab a kind of pickaxe, and encounter an orb-like ball along the way.

This is Deliver Us Mars, a new adventure for console and PC.

Robot vacuums are making a grand return

In Justice Sucks: Tactical Vacuum Action, a robot vacuum cleaner is on the loose, killing people as it goes. There’s plenty of cartoonish blood in this trailer, and a lot of gore.

It’s coming soon to PC, courtesy of Melbourne studio Samurai Punk.

Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga gets a new trailer

A new trailer for the upcoming Lego Star Wars sequel showed off the game’s slick voice acting, action and plenty of Lego gags – including a model for Kylo Ren that’s completely shirtless. It appears ‘Swolo’ will be playable in this game, in great news for all those Adam Driver fans.

The trailer also showed off an intense battle between Emperor Palpatine and Yoda.

It arrives on PC and consoles on 5 April 2022.

The Outbound Ghost is a new ‘paper RPG’

The next game shown off was inspired by Paper Mario and Undertale, and features a ghost trying to come to terms with its own death. In The Outbound Ghost, you’ll travel through a number of gorgeous lands, face off against terrifying beasts, and literally ‘battle your demons’. Combat is turn-based, and appears to be closely inspired by Paper Mario‘s own strategy system.

It’s available now on consoles and PC.

Expedition Zero is also available now

In frantic horror adventure Expedition Zero, you’ll be travelling through a snowy landscape filled with mysterious, unseen beasts. It appears there’ll be bloody Cthulian horrors on your journey, so it’s certainly not for the faint of heart.
