Just because a major video game is the name of a console manufacturer does not mean that there is no news for computer gamers. While Eiji Aonuma herself showed up to shatter the dreams of those expecting Breath of the Wild 2, there were also many newly announced multiplatform games coming to Steam.
Cow Tecmo may have had the biggest multiple announcements, starting with Samurai Warriors 5, the latest entry in the Japan-focused Dynasty Warriors thinning. This time it’s focused on Nobunaga Oda and Mitsuhide Akechi, has a more stylized art direction and will be coming this summer with the console version on Steam.
Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection also comes to Steam via Cow Tecmo. The June 10 release features the improved Sigma Gates of Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2, and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge, plus all the relevant DLC for the titles. There is also a crossover event that will have you playing as Ryu Hayabusa in Nioh 2.
Knockout City, the cartoon that takes on multiplayer games from EA and Velan Studios, is also coming to PC via Origin and Steam. It will also have crosshairs with the Switch, Xbox and PlayStation versions.
Square Enix’s Legend of Mana remaster will hit Steam on June 24th. SaGa Frontier Remastered, which was previously announced last year but got a new trailer today, is also coming to Steam this year.
Then there is Stobbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse. Yes, the beloved (?) Original Xbox action game will be back on March 16 across all current platforms, including Steam.
Neon WhiteThe first-person action game from Annapurna Interactive and Ben Esposito is also coming to Steam.
These are the Steam versions of today’s Nintendo Direct games that we were able to confirm so far. Given the path of Octopath Traveler, it’s likely that Square Enix’s amazing Project Triangle strategy will eventually hit Steam as well, but fans of strategy games and RPGs will have to wait a little longer for any official information about it.
