The Australian Classification Board, the government body which which rates movies, certain publications, and games in the same way that the Entertainment Software Board rates games in North America, has rated an Ubisoft game for Xbox One called Zombi. Given its title and Ubisoft being listed as the publisher, this might be a port of company's 2012 Wii U exclusive ZombiU.  The listing on the Classification Board appears a little more than a week after Unseen64, a site that has previously revealed a canceled Ubisoft Wii U game and concept art for Driver 5, reported that a ZombiU port might be in development. According to the Classification Board's website, Zombi is rated MA 15+ for strong horror violence, blood, and gore, which also describes the adult content in the original ZombiU. The date of the classification listed is June 17, 2015. In May of 2013, Ubisoft Montpellier's the creative director Jean-Philippe Caro said that the studio was working on a ZombiU 2 prototype, but in July 2013, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot told GamesIndustry International that "betting big" on the Wii U did not pay off for the company, and that there are no plans or desire for a sequel.

Publisher Square Enix had an impressive lineup of games to show off at E3 this year, including Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, the sequel to the well-reviewed Deus Ex: Human Revolution. We've seen a few trailers for the game before, but if you're still curious about it and don't mind seeing a spoiler scene, Square Enix released a full 25 minutes of gameplay. Mankind Divided is set in 2029, two years after the events of Human Revolution, and the video walks us through the beginning of the game, setting up the tension between mechanically augmented humans and non-augmented humans. Later in the video, we get to see both stealth and action gameplay, Adam Jensen's new gadgets, the new hacking system, all with developer commentary from the games executive audio director, Steve Szczepkowski. If you want to avoid the spoiler here, you should skip the video between 18:25 and 22:20. During its E3 press conference, Square Enix announced that Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is coming out in early 2016 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Another E3 ended this week with Valve not making even the tiniest peep about the long-awaited Half-Life 3. Soon, however, you'll be able to take Gordon Freeman on a new adventure of a different kind. Dutch Developer Thomas Kole is working on a small game he calls Halfline Miami, which mashes up the legendary first-person shooter Half-Life and the ultra violent indie-hit Hotline Miami. As you can see in the recently released trailer above, the game re-creates Gordon Freeman's adventures in Half-Life 2, but as a Hotline Miami level, using the same top-down perspective, and fast, combo-based scoring system. Instead of the variety of guns and melee weapons you'd find in Hotline Miami, Freeman still has his signature gravity gun, which he uses to pick up items and launch them at enemies. Kole said that at this point he's done working on the core gameplay and just has to finish making the maps. At the moment, he has three maps named after areas in Half-Life 2—Point Insertion, Route Kanal, Water Hazard—and another bonus level. You can follow the game's progress on its indieDB page here.
