At this point, I’m starting to think that Team Cherry, developer of Hollow Knight: Silksong, is either completely allergic to building up hype for its game or, alternatively, it may just be in on the joke. After a set of SteamDB updates had folks excited for a Silksong spotlight during last weekend’s flurry of showcases…
The Witcher 3 was, you may have heard, a large game. But it was once an even larger game. When it was still cooking over at CD Projekt Red, dev brains bubbled over with designs for questlines, cutscenes, and all sorts of other stuff that ended up on the cutting room floor before it released….

Developer New Tales has revealed its upcoming action-adventure game Fading Echo, a game where you battle, explore, and puzzle your way across a “desert punk” world using powers of elemental water.

The latest world premiere to grace the stage at the PC Gaming Show 2025 is Wanderburg. In this day and age, there’s no shortage of (admittedly fun) rogue-likes, even open-world ones.
