No specific platforms or release date are specified, with the site only saying that Lord of Vermilion IV is "coming soon." The original game released in Japanese arcades back in 2008 and has since received a couple sequels, as well as a few spinoff action-RPGs for PlayStation Portable and PS Vita.
Tomb Raider, Deus Ex Developers Making an Avengers Game
Square Enix and Marvel have announced a "multi-game partnership", starting with an Avengers game made by Tomb Raider developer, Crystal Dynamics and Deus Ex developer Eidos Montreal due for release in 2018.
Announced first on Twitter, there are few details so far, other than the cryptic use of the word "Reassemble" in the trailer and hashtags. The current title appears to be "The Avengers project", but that is almost certainly a working title.
The trailer's YouTube description sheds slightly more light on the game, and the partnership between Square and Marvel:

12 Things You Need to Know About Ni No Kuni 2
Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom has to be one of my most anticipated games this year. 2013's Wrath of the White Witch, after all, was – in many ways - a dream JRPG. Sure, it had its fair share of familiar systems and grindy combat, but its themes were deep, its characters charismatic and its presentation stunning. What else would you expect from a title with Studio Ghibli-produced 2D cutscenes, a Joe Hisaishi score and a beautiful, cel-shaded visual aesthetic?
Fast forward to 2017 and I’ve just been given my first proper look at the sequel – Revenant Kingdom – and it did not disappoint. The game is coming from the same core creative team, and the gameplay demo I saw confirmed that Level-5 hasn’t been afraid to make sweeping changes, as hinted at in the most recent trailer. I also found out a bunch of cool new details about the characters and world. Let’s run through 12 things you need to know about Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom.

Dirt 4 Announced and Dated for PS4, Xbox One and PC
Codemasters has announced Dirt 4, the latest in its series of off-road racing games, for PS4, Xbox One and PC. It will be released on June 9.
Featuring buggies, trucks, rally and rallycross vehicles, the game appears to be aiming to combine the hardcore realism of 2015's Dirt: Rally with the slightly wider, more accessible approach of the last numbered Dirt game.
The game will feature over 50 off-road vehicles (so far, the list comprises the Ford Fiesta R5, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI, Subaru WRX STI NR4 and Audi Sport quattro S1 E2), rally locations (Australia, Spain, Michigan, Sweden and Wales) with multiple tracks, and is an official partner of the FIA World Rallycross Championship, including its real-life tracks.
