Deal | A Germany-based indie studio comprising 7 people spent the last 6 years making this game. Unlike most of its competition, it focuses on trade and resource management, making it a refreshing, if somewhat limited, take on the genre.

Fans recently got a chance to check out the newly released teaser for an upcoming sci-fi shooter from one of the original creators of Escape from Tarkov.

The news comes from a leaker and streamer who claimed to have obtained the information from an inside source, which underscores the growing distrust between studios and players awaiting official details.

After the last episode aired, the fans are sure the show will choose one of the endings from the game, while others are quick to point out that the writers are staying true to their words.

The free-to-play hero shooter isn’t doing as well as the developers had hoped it would, and that might be an understatement.

Deal | The game centers on a group of citizens trying to survive while trapped in a city under siege, with several real-world scenarios being playable, focusing on resource management.

A new twist on the survival crafting genre is the addition of a moving train being used as a home base. With titles like Enginefall, Frostrail, and EverRail in play, there is something for everybody looking to try their hand at a train-centric survival crafter in 2026.

Deal | Players assume the role of a leader in an alternate history, where mankind fights against the elements to survive. Players can now get the game at 85% off its asking price.

The studio remained unaffected by the recent NetEase layoffs; the fate of its Star Wars project remains unknown as the MOBA's release date looms closer.

A dev announcement stated that the game was still available on itch.io but temporarily unavailable on Steam.

Deal | The title, the 3rd in its series, follows the critically acclaimed second installment of the game, which was also awarded Game of the Year in 2014.

Deal | Players assume the roles of various members of the Bat-family to patrol the streets of Gotham, now that the Dark Knight is allegedly no more, for a mammoth discount.

Halo’s Master Chief voice actor, Steve Downes, has publicly condemned AI-generated clones of his performance, arguing that unauthorized imitations deceive fans and threaten actors’ livelihoods. While acknowledging AI’s broader benefits, Downes warns that hyper-realistic voice reproductions cross an ethical line and is calling for such uses of his voice to stop.

A new Raspberry Pi Pico-based hardware mod for later-model PlayStation 3 consoles unlocks quasi-custom firmware, enabling unprecedented CELL and RSX overclocking, native PS2 ISO support, and Linux compatibility through direct XDR RAM exploitation. By achieving stable RSX clocks of up to 850 MHz and CELL speeds reportedly reaching 4.1 GHz, this community-driven breakthrough transforms the once-limited PS3 Super Slim into a powerful retro and homebrew platform, albeit with a hardware installation barrier.

Yakuza Kiwami 3’s expanded “Life at Morning Glory” chapters turn Kiryu into a full-time father, replacing early-game brawls with everyday childcare, chores, and WarioWare-style mini-games that flesh out his role as guardian. Director Ryosuke Horii argues this slower, life-sim opening is now the emotional core of the game, deepening Kiryu’s bonds with the orphans to sharpen the impact of his eventual return to the series’ familiar world of conspiracies and clan warfare.

Retroid’s upcoming Pocket 6 handheld is facing shipping delays due to inefficient OLED calibration and demura processes, with only a small initial batch of black, top-stick models currently dispatched. The company is investing in faster calibration equipment, prioritizing higher-spec variants, and using its Discord server to provide ongoing updates as it works toward broader shipments and a second-batch rollout in early March 2026.

Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan acknowledges that gamers “are unhappy with generative AI slop” even as the company pours nearly $600 million into AI, insisting the technology should stay behind the scenes as a tool for QA, bug hunting, and polishing games rather than generating cheap content. In an interview on The Verge’s Decoder podcast, Tan positioned Razer’s investment, including plans to hire 150 AI engineers and to push branded AI features like dedicated mouse buttons and a Razer.ai hub, as a bet that practical, developer-focused AI will outlast the current hype and gamer backlash.

AMD’s new Ryzen 7 9850X3D, a Zen 5-based octa-core CPU with 3D V-Cache, launches at $499 on January 29, 2026, positioning itself as a higher-clocked, better-binned successor to the 9800X3D. While it delivers top-tier gaming performance with a 5.6 GHz boost clock and basic integrated Radeon graphics, its price premium over the 9700X and 9800X3D makes it a niche pick for enthusiasts chasing maximum FPS.
