Forever Skies was one of the more intriguing early access survival projects that sprawl across Steam like a forest of (choppable) trees. The premise was basically “What if Subnautica, but in the sky?” which given Subnautica is one of, if not the best survival game in existence, is a pretty exciting concept. Plus, you get…

While opening last night’s Summer Game Fest showcase, host and Game Awards founder Geoff Keighley noted how 2025 has been marked by the surprise successes of smaller game projects. Alongside “indie creations” that “stand side by side with heavyweights,” Keighley shouted out Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 from Sandfall Interactive, which he called “a monumental achievement”…

Look, I’m not a big fan of fishing minigames for a whole bunch of reasons. But I am deeply fond of abysmal puns. So on that basis alone, Fallout 76‘s Gone Fission update gets a pass from me. But this exquisitely/terribly titled addition to Bethesda’s multiplayer Fallout does more than let you yoink marine life…

Shapez 2 has quickly established itself as one of the better factory sims to roll off the games industry’s colossal imagination assembly line.

Splitgate 2 launched a battle royale mode live at Summer Game Fest today. 1047 Games CEO and co-founder Ian Proulx took the stage himself to announce the news while slamming the state of shooters. Almost immediately, reactions to the segment weren’t as much about Splitgate 2 as Proulx’s peculiar fashion choice: a black “MAKE FPS…

If you’re anything like me, a Gen Z caffeine addict with the attention span of a fruit fly, ancient classics like Pong and Breakout don’t do much for you. ‘How am I supposed to play this without roguelite elements and heaps of stacking upgrades?’ I cry, and if the lesson is that sometimes less is…

Outerloop’s previous RPG, Thirsty Suitors, featured an elaborate cooking minigame—complete with quick-time-event handwashing—where you had to prepare Indian cuisine as a way of impressing and subsequently bonding with your mother. What I’m saying is, they’ve got prior when it comes to games where food is important. Outerloop’s next RPG, shown off today on the Day…
