  • YOU ARE THE RAID — Orcthal: RedKar Devs’ Orc Horde-Survival Roguelite, Free Demo Live Now

    YOU ARE THE RAID — Orcthal: RedKar Devs’ Orc Horde-Survival Roguelite, Free Demo Live Now

    The tables have turned. For once, you’re not defending the village — you’re the threat at the gates. Independent studio RedKar Devs has unveiled Orcthal, a bold horde-survival roguelite that casts you as an orc warrior storming human lands — playable solo or in online co-op with up to three friends. A free demo is live right now on Steam.

    RAID. RAZE. RETURN. STRONGER.

    Every run sends you deep into fortified human territory:

    • Survive the counterattack — armies converge on your position; carve through them with auto-cast abilities that keep the chaos flowing
    • Level up & choose perks — grow in power mid-raid, picking upgrades that redefine your playstyle each time
    • Loot & pillage — strip the fallen and sack settlements; carry your spoils home to unlock permanent upgrades
    • Fall, rise again — die and return stronger; each expedition shapes your orc’s legacy

    Alone or With Allies

    • Solo mode — lead the charge as a lone war-chieftain
    • Online co-op — rally up to 3 friends and storm the human lands together
    • Balanced for all sizes — enemy numbers and strength scale to match your party

    Gameplay at a Glance

    FeatureDetail
    CombatAuto-abilities — focus on movement, positioning, and perk choices
    ProgressionPerk selection per run + permanent unlocks between raids
    LootGear, gold, and resources to pillage and carry home
    VisualsStylised 3D — vibrant, chaotic, and distinctly orc-y
    DemoFree on Steam — play now, no purchase needed
    Full ReleaseScheduled for 2 November 2026
    Steam Page[store.steampowered.com/app/4531360](https://store.steampowered.com/app/4531360/Orcthal/)

    Why It Stands Out

    Survivor-likes usually put you on the defensive — Orcthal flips the script. You’re the invader. You choose where to strike, what to loot, and when to retreat — or burn everything to the ground. It’s a fresh twist on the genre from RedKar Devs, the team behind Warlords Under Siege.

    “Play as an orc warrior carving through armies… loot the fallen, pillage their settlements and come back again, and again, stronger.”

    Ready to Raid?

    Head to Steam, grab the free demo, and lead the charge today. The full release follows 2 November — wishlist now so you don’t miss the call.

  • Sunshine, Neon & Zekes — World War Z’s Viral State Update Turns Paradise Into Pandemonium

    Sunshine, Neon & Zekes — World War Z’s Viral State Update Turns Paradise Into Pandemonium

    Postcard-perfect beaches, glowing neon nights… and millions of hungry zombies. Welcome to Florida.

    Saber Interactive has officially unleashed details on Viral State — the massive new update for World War Z that whisks the globe-spanning zombie apocalypse straight into the Sunshine State. It lands November 12, 2026 across PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC (Steam & Epic Games Store), blending paid premium content with free upgrades for every player.


    Paradise Lost — The Florida Episode

    Neon lights, rays of sunshine, palm trees swaying beside golden beaches — Miami and Key West look like the ultimate getaway. But the crowds aren’t partying anymore. They’re swarming.

    The headline attraction is the premium Florida Episode DLC ($9.99), a brand-new campaign across three sprawling maps set in iconic vacation destinations:

    • Miami — neon-lit avenues and waterfront promenades overrun by hordes
    • Key West — tropical islands and coastal roads turned death traps
    • Theme Parks & Landmarks — Florida’s most famous attractions, now choked with the infected

    You’ll fight through sun-drenched boulevards, pastel-coloured districts, and palm-lined promenades where every bright vista hides a teeming tide of Zekes. The contrast is deliberate — paradise makes the apocalypse hit harder.

    Four New Survivors

    Step into the Sunshine State with four distinct, fully voiced heroes:

    • Val — quick-thinking and sharp-shooting
    • Caesar — tough, experienced, and unshakable
    • Moe — scrappy, resourceful, and dangerously clever
    • Chris — steady, reliable, and ready for anything

    Each brings unique backgrounds and personality to the fight, with custom perks and progression to unlock.

    Free for Everyone — New Weapons & Daily Challenges

    You don’t need to buy the DLC to get stronger. Viral State packs serious free upgrades:

    • Microgun — a devastating new heavy weapon that tears through hordes
    • Dual Kama — lightning-fast melee blades for slicing through close-quarters threats
    • Daily Challenge Overhaul — fresh timer system, reroll options, improved UI, and the ability to pin preferred challenges
    • Quality-of-life polish across menus, matchmaking, and performance

    Premium Cosmetics — Vacation Heat

    Want to look good while saving the world? The Vacation Heat Character Skins Pack ($4.99) dresses survivors Hiroiji, Eloise, Angel, and Marine in Florida-ready style — perfect for surviving the apocalypse in tropical fashion.

    From Saber Interactive

    “Florida’s all sunshine and palm trees — until the hordes show up,” the team shared. “Viral State is about that contrast: beautiful, bright, terrifyingly alive. We’re giving players a fresh playground, powerful new tools, and plenty of reasons to team up and keep fighting.”

    Grab your sunscreen, load your Microgun, and remember — in Florida, the zombies come in waves.

  • Into the Unknown — No Such Place, Top-Down PvE Extraction Shooter, Hits Early Access Tonight

    Into the Unknown — No Such Place, Top-Down PvE Extraction Shooter, Hits Early Access Tonight

    Step into somewhere that officially doesn’t exist. No Such Place — the atmospheric top-down pixel-art extraction shooter from ChillyRoom’s Crit Team — launches into Steam Early Access at 8:00 PM PDT, October 13 / October 14 UTC, inviting players to explore fractured dimensions, recover forbidden relics, and escape before reality erases them entirely.

    Welcome to the U.R.C. — Where Places Get Erased

    You are an agent of the Unknown Research Consortium (U.R.C.), a shadowy organisation investigating anomalous zones that the world has tried to wipe from existence. These are locations where space, time, and physics are breaking down — and where something strange is taking their place.

    Your mission:

    • Deploy into unstable dimensional fragments — burning forests, frozen highlands, abandoned research facilities, and warped urban zones
    • Scavenge weapons, gear, medical supplies, and priceless relics, documents, and biological samples
    • Survive against hostile creatures born from the anomaly itself
    • Extract before the region is consumed entirely by the “erasure” — stay too long, and there is no coming back

    Extraction, Reimagined

    No Such Place brings the tension of extraction shooters to a tense top-down perspective, leaning into PvE co-operation rather than player-versus-player conflict:

    Core FeatureDetail
    Play StyleSolo or online co-op for up to 4 players
    VisualsRich, atmospheric pixel art with dynamic lighting and weather
    Weapon EvolutionGear can become “corrupted” by the anomaly — transforming in strange, powerful, or unpredictable ways
    Safehouse ProgressionKeep what you extract to upgrade your base, unlock new tech, and expand your capabilities
    Launch Content3 major regions, nearly 10 distinct dimensional zones at Early Access launch
    LanguagesEnglish, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and more supported

    More Than Loot — Uncover the Truth

    Every run carries risk. Every recovered item tells part of a larger story. As you delve deeper into these forgotten spaces, you begin to uncover what — or who — caused them to fracture in the first place. The anomaly isn’t random. It’s evolving. And it has secrets that the U.R.C. is desperate to keep buried.

    Built for the Long Haul

    Crit Team — the indie studio within ChillyRoom — has designed No Such Place as a living Early Access project:

    • Demo has been available since June, gathering community feedback throughout
    • Full 1.0 release timeline still to be confirmed
    • New zones, weapons, story chapters, and corrupted variants planned based on player input
    • Developers maintain open dialogue via Steam Community and official channels

    Available Now

    The Steam store page is live.

    Launch coincides with the previously announced October 13/14 rollout — depending on your time zone, the doors are open right now. Grab your team, pack your gear, and remember the golden rule of extraction: it doesn’t count as yours until you make it out alive.

    Good luck, Agent. Somewhere out there, the truth is waiting. And so is whatever guards it.

  • Tricks, Treats & Terrors — Scary Baboon Unleashes Spooktacular Halloween Update

    Tricks, Treats & Terrors — Scary Baboon Unleashes Spooktacular Halloween Update

    The howling begins soon. Developer Gorilla Games has confirmed Scary Baboon is getting a massive Halloween update, landing exclusively on Meta Quest. Prepare for a bone-chilling new monster, a ghoulish co-op event, the game’s very first limited Tech Tree, and a mountain of seasonal gear, cosmetics, and pets — all just in time for the spookiest time of the year.


    What’s Haunting the Jungle This Halloween?

    This isn’t just a reskin — it’s a full-blown takeover. Every corner of the jungle is getting dressed up for the season, with four headline additions that change how you play:

    New Monster — The Hollow Howler

    A towering, wraith-like predator that emerges only under the pale moonlight. Faster than anything you’ve faced before, and deadlier too:

    • Phases in and out of visibility to ambush unsuspecting players
    • Emits a disorienting howl that disrupts communication and slows movement
    • Can summon spectral minions to swarm your squad
    • Drops rare seasonal materials needed to craft exclusive gear

    “You’ll hear it long before you see it. And by then, it may already be too late.” — Gorilla Games


    Co-op Event — Trick or Treat

    Grab up to three friends and hit the trails in this brand-new seasonal mode:

    • Special Halloween-themed maps packed with pumpkins, fog, and spooky decor
    • Two paths at every turn — Trick: fight harder enemies for better rewards; Treat: take on easier challenges to collect loot faster
    • Shared progress — everyone in the squad earns rewards, no one gets left behind
    • Limited time only — event vanishes when the clock strikes midnight on 1 November

    First-Ever Limited Tech Tree

    Unlock exclusive abilities and upgrades that won’t be around forever:

    Branch
    Moonlight — glow-in-the-dark tools, night-vision goggles, silent movement boosts
    Ward — temporary shields, faster revive speeds, group buffs
    Hunt — increased damage against the Hollow Howler, trap mastery, stealth attacks

    Important: This Tech Tree resets after the event — unlock everything you can before it’s gone.


    Seasonal Collection — Spook Up Your Style

    The biggest drop yet — over 50 items arriving just for Halloween:

    • Weapons — Candy Corn Blaster, Ghost Grenade, Pumpkin Launcher, and more
    • Items — Ectoplasm Medkits, Bat Wings Glider, Lantern Light Source
    • Cosmetics — Vampire fangs, mummy wraps, witch hats, ghostly trails, glowing eyes
    • Pets — Black cat, will-o’-the-wisp, tiny skeleton companion — each follows you and grants a small passive bonus

Limited-time content means urgency, the co-op event means fun with friends, and the sheer volume of new gear means there’s always something to chase.

  • Capyverse Odyssey Demo Is Live — Jetpacks, Chaos, and Co-Op Await!

    Capyverse Odyssey Demo Is Live — Jetpacks, Chaos, and Co-Op Await!

    Cats ruled the internet for decades — but then capybaras stole the show, and one very famous feline is absolutely furious. That’s the delightfully silly premise behind Capyverse Odyssey, the brand-new co-op action roguelite from Metazooie Studios, and its free demo is available right now.

    The Story: When Fame Goes to a Cat’s Head

    Ophelia — a cat who’s built her entire kingdom on online attention — is losing her crown. Capybaras have gone viral, and she’s not taking it well. Instead of gracefully stepping aside, she’s twisting reality itself, turning worlds into bizarre, dangerous playgrounds just to stay in the spotlight.

    Standing in her way? Capy and a crew of lovable, unlikely heroes ready to soar through surreal landscapes, battle ridiculous enemies, and save the day — all while wearing jetpacks. Because why walk when you can fly?

    Gameplay: Chaos, Co-Op, and Ridiculous Power-Ups

    Capyverse Odyssey supports 1–4 players online, so you can jump in solo or team up with friends for maximum mayhem. Here’s what you can expect:

    • Four distinct heroes — Pick from Capy (chill capybara leader), Moody (tank-like hippo), Jim (energetic dog), or Axie (supportive axolotl). Each is adorable, and each can become devastatingly powerful.
    • Jetpack-fuelled combat — You’re always airborne, always moving, and always just seconds away from something exploding. Standing still? Not an option.
    • Builds that get wildly out of hand — Clear maps, stack power-ups, equip weird and wonderful gear, and watch your character evolve from capable to completely overpowered in the best way possible.
    • Surreal, unpredictable worlds — Fight haunted slot machines, killer clowns, hostile suitcases, and bumper-car-launching bosses across corrupted casinos, nightmare carnivals, and stranger places.
    • Short, replayable runs — Easy to pick up, tough to put down. Each run mixes objectives like zone defence, elimination, and boss fights so no two playthroughs feel the same.

    Demo Out Now — Try It Free!

    The Capyverse Odyssey demo launched Friday, October 2, 2026, and is ready to play. Jump in, team up, battle through chaotic maps, test out the heroes, and get a taste of the absurdity ahead. Full release date is still to be announced — but you can wishlist and follow the game right now.

    Quick Facts

    • Developer & Publisher: Metazooie Studios
    • Genre: Co-op Action Roguelite / Third-Person Shooter
    • Players: 1–4 (Online Co-Op + Single-Player)
    • Languages: English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, German, Spanish (Spain & Latin America), Portuguese (Brazil), Russian
    • Platform: PC (Steam) — Coming Soon
    • Controller Support: Full support for Xbox, DualSense, and more

    • Minimum: Windows 7+, Intel Core i5-6400 / AMD FX-8320, 4GB RAM, 2GB VRAM, 5GB storage

    What is DREGS?

    DREGS drops teams of up to four players into a chaotic, eerie, yet strangely hilarious environment where teamwork is everything—and failure is funny. Masterfully blending genuine scares with comedic gameplay loops, it promises the perfect balance of adrenaline-pumping fear and laugh-out-loud moments. Whether you’re executing a flawless strategy or watching your friend panic-sprint away from a monster, no two sessions are ever the same.

    But don’t wait too long—this special launch discount is only available until July 24.

  • Scrub-A-Dub-Doom: Why You’ll Want to Get Soaking Wet in ‘Sponge Break’

    Scrub-A-Dub-Doom: Why You’ll Want to Get Soaking Wet in ‘Sponge Break’

    Let’s face it—the kitchen sink is a terrifying place. It’s a lawless wasteland of soggy cereal, weaponised forks, and the looming threat of the garbage disposal. So, can you really blame a bunch of sponges for wanting to stage a daring prison break?

    Publishers Goose Byte Games and developers Balor Games have officially revealed their newest project, and they are weirdly, wonderfully proud to introduce Sponge Break—a chaotic 1–4 player co-op rafting adventure that gives a whole new meaning to “cleaning up your act.”

    The Ultimate Kitchen Sink Escape

    In Sponge Break, you and up to three of your most absorbent friends play as literal household sponges who have finally had enough of the daily grind. The goal? Escape the tyranny of the kitchen sink.

    The catch? Your getaway vehicle is a makeshift raft held together by little more than hope, wishful thinking, and maybe a stray twist-tie.

    What to Expect from the Mayhem:

    • Chaotic Co-op Mechanics: Whether you’re playing solo or teaming up with a full squad of four, coordination is key. And by coordination, we mean screaming at your friends while everything goes horribly wrong.
    • Physics-Based Rafting: Navigating treacherous dishwater currents while trying to keep your flimsy raft intact is no easy feat.
    • Absorbent Action: Use your spongey properties to soak up water, dodge hazardous debris, and outmanoeuvre the perils of the plumbing.

    “We wanted to create something that captures the pure, unadulterated panic of trying to keep a bad idea afloat with your friends.” —

    Coming Clean: When Can We Play?

    While the devs are keeping some of the finer details under wraps, the sheer absurdity of the premise already has us hooked. It promises the perfect blend of high-stakes teamwork and friendship-testing blunders, reminiscent of co-op hits like Overcooked and Moving Out.

    If you’ve ever wanted to stick it to the human who left you sitting in a puddle of old lasagna water, this is your moment. Tie on your safety goggles, grab a dishtowel, and get ready to launch.

    What do you think? Do you have what it takes to survive the plumbing, or will your team just end up totally drained? Let us know in the comments!
