Excitedly, I boot up the new demo for Militsioner, a game I've had a watchful eye on since its announcement. A phone rings, it's my lawyer. I don't know why I've been arrested, but with the shattering of my balcony window I quickly know one thing: there's a giant motherf**king cop that won't let me leave this town. He (always referred to as HE) starts to grill me. He tires of the questions, asking me to vocally consent to staying put and forgo any attempt at escaping. I refuse. I fail the tutorial. "Oh," I say to myself. "So this is gonna be a good video game, huh? "
Militsioner, for the uninitiated, is an immersive sim of massive proportions. For some reason, you've been stuck in some town alongside a handful of other folks, an open air prison essentially. Your crime? Well, you're not sure really, but the giant cop constantly looming over you certainly seems to think you should know. Of course, you immediately begin to plot your escape, potentially via a train car that leads you out of town, but it's not that easy. First you have to get a job, and to get that job you need to find some desert, except, oh, what's this?

Monster Hunter Wilds' fairly generous Prologue Demo comes to Switch 2 next week
Capcom is letting players 'try before they buy' Monster Hunter Wilds' on Switch 2, bringing the fairly generous 'Prologue demo' to the console before the game's full release on the platform on 4th December. The demo, which arrives on 19th October, lets you play the very beginning of the game up to the beginning of Chapter 1-3,"To the Forest". It's offline-only, so you don't get to experience the full joy of four-player hunts - but you do at least get to try out all 14 weapon types, and get full access to the character creator. Also, your save data will migrate from the demo to the full game, similarly to how the demo pathing works on PC and other consoles.
