Cryostasis, NecroVisioN, MoW dated

505's PC threesome in late February.

505 Games has said that its upcoming PC trio of Cryostasis, NecroVisioN and Men of War will all be released under the 1C Company label in Europe on 20th February.

Cryostasis sends you to investigate an old nuclear ice-breaker shipwrecked in the Arctic Circle, where you use a Mental Echo ability to relive the final memories of the dead (and still grumpy and active) crew to change their actions. You can even be a cow. A cow! Read our Cryostasis preview to learn a bit more.

Elsewhere, NecroVisioN is a bonkers first-person shooter where players fight "through the bleak trenches of World War I and into the very jaws of hell", as soldiers turn into zombies and a mad German scientist has created a giant robot scorpion. There's a trailer dealing with all that on Eurogamer TV.

Finally, Men of War is a World War II real-time strategy game from the makers of Soldiers: Heroes of World War II, with Russian, Allied and German sides playable, and you can also play as the Japanese in multiplayer. German and Allied single-player campaigns are said to be set in the North African theatre of war, while the Russian effort is on the Eastern Front.
