THQ Nordic, a subsidiary of Emracer Group, announced six new games at its 10th anniversary showcase. Although some of the games are remakes and some are completely new, each game excited the audience.
Announced games, trailers and Steam descriptions are as follows:

Outcast 2 – A New Beginning

In Expeditions: Rome, you exert the will of Rome through your actions across the world stage, from the bright blue coasts of Greece to the deep forests of Gaul. Decide how people will view you, and Rome. Will you strike with an iron fist, or speak with a silver tongue? Will you embrace the political heritage of the Republic, or carve your own path as you navigate the complex politics of the Roman Senate? Every choice matters as you decide the fate of your legion, your close companions, and of Rome itself.”
