After leaving the company in 2019, former Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime announced in 2020 that he’d founded Dreamhaven, a new game publisher seeking to “reimagine the studio model.” In 2024, Secret Door—the first of Dreamhaven’s two in-house studios staffed by Blizzard veterans—revealed Sunderfolk, a tabletop-inspired tactical RPG. Today, in a showcase presented by The Game…
Less than a month ago, the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 modding community was turning everyone in the game into perfectly round balls of flesh. But fashions change quickly in the medieval world. Fat is out and thin is in, courtesy of this mod that transforms every KCD 2 character into an actual skeleton. “Here’s a…
