    Vengeance Unleashed — Acts of Blood Strikes PC December 4, Consoles Follow in 2027

    When the law fails, your fists must speak.

    Developer Eksil Team and publisher Big Fan have announced that Acts of Blood — the gritty, revenge-fuelled third-person martial arts action game — will land on PC via Steam this Friday, 4 December 2026, priced at $19.99. And the news doesn’t end there: Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 versions are confirmed to follow in early 2027.

    A City Corrupted. A Life Destroyed. A Promise Kept.

    Set in the bustling, fictional Indonesian city of Bandapa, Acts of Blood follows Hendra — a law student whose family is brutally murdered by forces tied to a corrupt politician. When the system designed to deliver justice only shields the powerful, Hendra walks away from the law and takes matters into his own hands.

    His quest for vengeance will carry him through rain-slicked streets, crowded markets, and shadowed back alleys, hunting down those responsible — one bone-crushing strike at a time.

    Brutal, Fluid Martial Arts Combat

    Acts of Blood isn’t just about raw power — it’s about precision, timing, and mastery.

    • Chain strikes, blocks, and counters into devastating combos that feel weighty and visceral
    • Finish enemies with brutal, bone-crushing signature moves
    • Evolve your fighting style — unlock new techniques and upgrade your skills as you progress
    • Use the world as your weapon — pick up pipes, sticks, and whatever else isn’t nailed down when fists aren’t enough
    • Flowing movement — combine combat with parkour to chase foes across rooftops and through crowded districts

  • Strike the Chord — Alpha Nomos Hits the Beat in Full Launch

    Strike the Chord — Alpha Nomos Hits the Beat in Full Launch

    The rhythm never stops. Independent studio RibCage Games has officially unleashed Alpha Nomos, their pulse-pounding rhythm-action roguelite, across Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S — with a 10% launch discount live now on Steam for the first seven days.

    What Is Alpha Nomos?

    Music isn’t just the soundtrack — it’s the law. In a world warped by melody and overrun by corrupted puppets, you play as Cello, a lone warrior fighting to restore harmony. Every swing, dodge, and ability must land on the beat to unleash maximum impact. Miss the rhythm, and you leave yourself wide open.

    “The music is the law of the world. Strike in time, and the world bends to your will.” — RibCage Games

    This isn’t just a rhythm game — it’s a hack-and-slash roguelite where timing is your sharpest weapon.

    Combat — Feel the Beat, Be the Beat

    MechanicWhat It Means
    Beat-Tied CombatAttacks, dodges, and special abilities gain power when timed perfectly to the music
    Chain CombosString perfect beats together to unleash devastating finishers
    Adjustable Timing WindowsTailor the rhythm tolerance to your skill level — welcoming for newcomers, tight for veterans
    Procedural RunsNo two playthroughs are identical — rooms, foes, and rewards shift every time you fall
    Melodic ProgressionChoose new abilities and boons between battles — build a style that sings

    The World — Puppets, Decay & Harmony

    Cello journeys through a once-beautiful realm now twisted into dissonance — where corrupted puppets dance to a broken tune. Each run takes you deeper into this fractured world, facing:

    • Twisted Puppet Foes — Each enemy type attacks with distinct rhythmic patterns to learn and counter
    • Melodic Zones — Biomes shaped by musical genres, each with its own signature soundtrack and visual flair
    • Permanent Upgrades — Even in defeat, carry progress forward to grow stronger for the next performance

    Launch Details — Grab the Beat

    DetailInformation
    Developer / PublisherRibCage Games
    Release Date12 October 2026 (out now)

    Price£16.99 / $19.99 (before discount)
    DemoFree playable version available on Steam
    StyleThird-person rhythm-action hack-and-slash roguelite

    Why It Stands Out

    Alpha Nomos bridges the gap between rhythm games and action roguelites — two worlds that rarely collide this smoothly. It captures the kinetic energy of Hi-Fi RUSH with the replayable, rewarding structure of a modern roguelite — where every run is a fresh chance to master the tempo.

    Most importantly, it respects all skill levels: generous timing options mean music-game newcomers can still enjoy the ride, while beat-chasing purists can narrow the window for maximum challenge.

    “Pick up your instrument. The show must go on.”

  • Speed, Sparks & Survival — FIRESTARTERS Ignites Early Access October 28!

    Speed, Sparks & Survival — FIRESTARTERS Ignites Early Access October 28!

    Strap on your skates, lock and load — and prepare to burn bright. Independent developer Studio Kerosene has officially announced that their blisteringly fast movement shooter FIRESTARTERS will launch into Early Access on Steam on October 28, 2026, kicking off with Episode 1 of 4 — and every remaining episode arrives as a free update throughout the Early Access journey.

    What Is FIRESTARTERS?

    FIRESTARTERS is a lightning-quick arcade movement FPS that fuses high-speed traversal, hard-hitting combat, and gripping narrative into one white-hot package. Described by Rock Paper Shotgun as “a bit like Quake, a bit like Rollerdrome, and looks genuinely fun”, it puts you in the jet-powered boots of Kera, an ex-street kid from Okinawa caught up in STEEL — a brutal, globally broadcast gladiator league run by a shadowy criminal syndicate.

    Equipped with a reinforced combat suit and rocket skates, Kera doesn’t just run — she flows. Glide across curved surfaces, grind along rails, chain slides into boosts, and turn every arena into your own personal racetrack — all while laying waste to waves of murderous android opponents.

    • Fluid, momentum-driven movement — maintain speed, build momentum, and never stop moving
    • Aggressive, responsive combat — a deadly arsenal at your fingertips; close the gap or strike from above
    • Story-rich campaign — four episodes charting Kera’s fight for freedom and the truth behind the league
    • Leaderboards & replayability — master each arena, shave seconds off your time, and climb global ranks
    • Free content roadmap — Episodes 2–4 arrive at no extra cost as the game evolves in Early Access

    The Road Ahead — Four Episodes, Zero Extra Cost

    Launch day brings Episode 1, introducing Kera, the Firestarters team, and the deadly spectacle of the STEEL arena. The remaining three episodes will roll out progressively during Early Access — completely free to all owners — so no one gets left behind as the story expands.

    “There’s no catch — buy the game once, get the full story as it unfolds.”

    Studio Kerosene plans to keep FIRESTARTERS in Early Access for roughly 12–18 months, refining gameplay, balancing weapons, and polishing every chapter alongside the community. Player feedback will directly shape Episode 2 and beyond.

    Demo Available Now

    You don’t have to wait until October 28 to feel the heat. A playable demo is already live on Steam, letting you dive straight into the action and experience FIRESTARTERS’ signature speed and style ahead of launch.

    Key Details

    • Developer: Studio Kerosene
    • Release: Early Access — October 28, 2026 (Steam)
    • Content: Episode 1 at launch; Episodes 2–4 as free updates
    • Price: To be confirmed — wishlist now to be notified
    • Demo: Available immediately via Steam store page

  • All Vengeance — Vaewolf Unleashes Its Story at PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct

    All Vengeance — Vaewolf Unleashes Its Story at PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct

    Every beast has a story. This beast is born of vengeance.

    Following its striking reveal at Gamescom last month, Vaewolf has returned with a blistering new trailer during the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct — pulling back the curtain on the dark origins and relentless quest for revenge at the heart of this supernatural hack-and-slash.

    From Survivor to Legend — The Story of Vaewolf

    You were once a young elf — the sole survivor of a brutal massacre. Your family, your home, your peace — all taken by a ruthless Viking clan led by the chieftain Bloodaxe. Left for dead in the frozen wilderness, you were touched by two ancient curses: the feral rage of the werewolf and the immortal power of the vampire. Together, they forged something entirely new — the Vaewolf.

    Now you hunt. Not just for survival — for justice. For blood.

    • A journey born of grief — witness the massacre that ignites an unquenchable fire for retribution
    • Three forms, one purpose — shift instantly between Elf, Werewolf, and Vampire, each with unique powers that grow as your quest deepens
    • A land reimagined — hunt across a hand-drawn fantasy version of Cumbria’s Lake District, from mist-shrouded forests to sunken ruins and snowbound peaks
    • Face the architect of your pain — track Bloodaxe and his clan through three distinct regions, where every battle brings you closer to the final reckoning

    Trailer Reveal & Release Details

    The new story trailer dives deeper into the transformation that defines Vaewolf — showing how loss became power, and how one survivor became a nightmare for an entire clan.

  • Unleash Hell: Red Sky Games & Stratos Gaming Team Up for Blistering 2D Twin-Stick Action

    Unleash Hell: Red Sky Games & Stratos Gaming Team Up for Blistering 2D Twin-Stick Action

    Get ready to lock and load — a ferocious new arcade experience is on the horizon, and it’s bringing gunpowder, grit, and grotesque demonic hordes along for the ride.

    Red Sky Games has joined forces with Stratos Gaming to craft a high-octane 2D twin-stick arcade shooter that marries pinpoint precision gunplay with visceral, wave-based melee combat against swarms of infernal foes. It’s fast, it’s frantic, and it’s designed to keep your thumbs moving and your heart pounding.

    The Best of Both Worlds

    This collaboration fuses two distinct combat styles into one seamless adrenaline rush:

    • Precision gunplay — master an arsenal of deadly firearms, from rapid-fire repeaters to heavy-hitting cannons, each with unique handling, recoil, and tactical uses
    • Demonic wave combat — when the hordes get close, unleash devastating melee strikes to carve through encroaching legions of hellspawn in close-quarters, visceral clashes

    Each wave ramps up the intensity, throwing deadlier enemies, larger abominations, and overwhelming numbers at you — survival depends on switching seamlessly between picking foes off from a distance and cleaving through them when they breach your defences.

    A Partnership Built on Passion

    Red Sky Games, known for intense, stylised action titles including Two Sides of Hell, brings its flair for atmospheric, hard-hitting combat and bold visual design. Stratos Gaming adds deep experience in tight, responsive arcade mechanics and finely tuned balancing — together, they’re building something that feels instantly familiar yet fiercely fresh.

    “We want players to feel powerful but always on the edge,” the teams shared. “Every shot counts, every swing matters — and when the demons close in, you’d better be ready to fight up close and personal.”

    What to Expect

    • Lightning-fast twin-stick controls that feel instantly right
    • Hordes of uniquely twisted demonic enemies across escalating waves
    • A satisfying blend of ranged mastery and melee brutality
    • Bold, striking 2D visuals that pop in every firefight
    • Leaderboards, challenge modes, and replayability at its core

    This is arcade gaming in its purest form: pick up, play, and survive as long as you can — simple to learn, tough to master, and impossible to put down.

    Coming Soon

    Further details, including title, platforms, and release window, will be revealed in the coming weeks. Keep your eyes locked here — we’ll bring you the first gameplay reveal, exclusive screens, and release date as soon as they drop.

    Don’t let the darkness take you down.

  • Battered, But Still Unbeaten: Crêpe Master! Flips Onto Meta Quest 3/3S

    Battered, But Still Unbeaten: Crêpe Master! Flips Onto Meta Quest 3/3S

    If you’ve ever felt that the only thing missing from your VR library was the ability to defend the Earth’s most beloved dessert while channelling your inner Sailor Moon, then today is your lucky day.

    Indie French developer Hallucinations Studio has officially served up Crêpe Master!, a vibrant, delicious beat ‘em up VR adventure. It is out now, exclusively for the Meta Quest 3 and 3S, and it’s every bit as delightfully chaotic as it sounds.

    Save the World, One Crêpe at a Time

    In Crêpe Master!, you step into the shoes of Hana, a girl who discovers she is the reincarnation of the legendary Crêpe Goddess. Naturally, this means you’re the only person standing between a ruthless alien tyrant and the total destruction of the world’s crêpe supply.

    Armed with your Sacred Pan and a trusty spatula, you’ll head into battle to bash, flip, and sizzle your way through waves of extraterrestrial invaders.

    Whimsical Gameplay Features

    This isn’t your standard brawler; Hallucinations Studio has baked in some unique mechanics that make full use of the Quest’s motion tracking:

    • Gesture-Based Magic: Strike iconic “magical girl” poses to summon powerful spells. From reflecting projectiles to freezing enemies in their tracks, your movements are your weapons.
    • The Sacred Pan: Smash through alien ranks in satisfying melee combat. Recover stolen ingredients to power up your strikes!
    • Lightning-Speed Cooking: Mid-battle, you’ll dive into high-speed mini-games to craft special crêpes. Adding ingredients like strawberries or bananas isn’t just for show—they infuse your magic with explosive or heavy-hitting properties.
    • Vibrant Visuals: Inspired by classic 90s magical girl anime like Cardcaptor Sakura, the game is a feast of colour and sparkles.

    A Sweet Debut from Hallucinations Studio

    Based in Lyon, France, Hallucinations Studio is a worker-run co-operative making its original title debut with Crêpe Master!. After supporting projects like the multiplayer horror title Haunted, the team has shifted gears to something much more sugary—and the passion for the genre shines through every sparkly explosion.

    “Saving the world has never been tastier.”

    How to Play

    Ready to take up the spatula? Crêpe Master! is available now on the Meta Horizon Store for $9.99.

    Whether you’re in it for the nostalgic anime vibes or you just really want to hit an alien with a frying pan, this is one VR experience that’s definitely worth a taste.

    Are you ready to embrace your inner Crêpe Goddess, or do you prefer your VR adventures a bit less “sweet”? Let us know in the comments!

  • Build, Defend, and Reclaim: Ash & Adam’s Existential Treads Lands on Steam

    Build, Defend, and Reclaim: Ash & Adam’s Existential Treads Lands on Steam

    The post-post-apocalypse just got a little more crowded—and a lot more interesting. Independent duo Ash & Adam’s Games has officially launched their latest title, Ash & Adam’s Existential Treads, on Steam. If you’ve ever wanted to combine the strategic planning of a city-builder with the frantic energy of a top-down shooter, this might be your next obsession.

    Better yet, it’s launching with a wallet-friendly price tag that’s hard to ignore.

    What is Existential Treads?

    Described as a “mini action city-builder,” the game drops you into a world where humanity’s past is a literal threat. You aren’t just managing menus; you’re on the ground, driving through the ruins to scavenge resources and rescue settlers.

    The core gameplay loop is a clever mix of three distinct genres:

    • City Building: Construct buildings and position them strategically to maximise your survival odds.
    • Tower Defense: Hold the line against waves of rogue AI—the same ones that levelled civilisation in the first place.
    • Top-Down Action: Take direct control to fend off enemies and explore procedurally generated levels.

    “Every building you construct and how you position it affects your settlement’s chance of survival. Resist the noise; the dark remnants of humanity’s past are not friendly.”

    Key Features at a Glance

    • Post-Post-Apocalyptic Sprawl: Scavenge for resources in a world trying to heal itself.
    • Procedural Variety: Random build orders and generated levels mean no two runs are identical.
    • Restore Nature: Your ultimate goal isn’t just survival; it’s working with your settlers to reclaim the isles and restore the wasteland.
    • Quick Sessions: Average play sessions last about 30 minutes—perfect for a quick tactical fix.

    Launch Details and Discount

    The game is available now for Windows and macOS (and is Steam Deck verified for those who like their apocalypses on the go).

  • Echoes of Aincrad Gets A New Gameplay Trailer

    Echoes of Aincrad Gets A New Gameplay Trailer

    Link Start! Bandai Namco has just dropped the gameplay trailer for Sword Art Online: Echoes of Aincrad, and it’s looking like the SAO experience fans have been craving for a decade. Moving away from the “Kirito-centric” adventures of previous titles, this new Action RPG puts you in the centre of the death game.

    If you missed the reveal during the Galaxies Spring Showcase, here is the breakdown of why this might be the most ambitious SAO project yet.

    A New Legend: Yours

    The biggest takeaway from the trailer is the shift in perspective. Instead of playing as the Black Swordsman, players will create their own custom avatar. You are one of the 10,000 players trapped on the first day of the launch, tasked with surviving the 100 floors of the floating castle.

    The trailer showcases a robust character creator, featuring:

    • Deep Gear Customisation: From classic leather armour to heavy plate.
    • Stat Scaling: Tailor your build toward Speed, Strength, or Endurance.
    • Weapon Mastery: Real-time combat that looks significantly more fluid than Last Recollection, focusing on “Sword Skills” and timed parries.

    Risk Your Reality: Death Game Mode

    Perhaps the most “authentic” (and terrifying) feature revealed is the Death Game Mode. In a nod to the series’ roots, this optional setting means that if your HP hits zero, it’s permanent game over. Your save file is deleted, mirroring the stakes of the original anime.

    The developers at Game Studio Inc. clarified that while this isn’t a “Soulslike,” the tension is high. You’ll need to manage resources, stamina, and your AI partner synergy carefully if you want to see the upper floors.

    Breathtaking Visuals & World Scale

    The trailer gives us a sweeping look at the first few floors, including the familiar Town of Beginnings and the lush, dangerous plains of Floor 1. The environmental detail on PS5 and Xbox Series X is a massive step up, with lighting and scale that finally make Aincrad feel like a living, breathing world rather than a series of interconnected corridors.

  • Crossout Warriors Will Be Playing With Fire

    Crossout Warriors Will Be Playing With Fire

    Praise the eternal flame, Survivors!

    The wasteland is about to get a lot more crowded—and a lot hotter. Gaijin Entertainment has officially dropped the “Playing with Fire” update for Crossout, and if you’ve ever felt that your armoured vehicle was missing a certain “incendiary” charm, this is the season you’ve been waiting for.

    Dedicated to the chaotic Firestarters faction, this update isn’t just about adding a few new parts; it’s about redefining how you wreak havoc on the battlefield.

    New Toys for the Firestarters

    The Firestarters have never been known for their subtlety, and their new arsenal proves it. Here are the highlights of the new hardware you can now bolt onto your rides:

    • The “Thrust” Melee Weapon: This legendary saw deals periodic damage upon contact. But here’s the kicker: it can also fire a heavy projectile that deals ram damage from a distance. It’s the ultimate “get over here” (and then stay there) tool.
    • The “Butcher” Disc Launcher: A legendary weapon that fires discs which latch onto enemy parts, sawing through them before delivering a final explosive goodbye.
    • The “Inquisitor” Rocket Launcher: For those who prefer the classics, this multi-barreled beast provides heavy-duty suppression and fire-based destruction.
    • The “Hyena” Tracked Platform: New movement parts featuring retractable “claw” blades that scale in lethality based on your speed.

    Fresh Brawls & Game Modes

    The update also introduces a rotation of limited-time events to keep the adrenaline pumping:

    • Precious Driver: A team-based hunt where one player is randomly selected as the “high-value target.” Protect your VIP and hunt the enemy to secure victory.
    • Ice and Fire: A PvP clash using pre-assembled vehicles. You’ll have to choose between scorching heat or cryogenic cold to dominate the map.
    • At Gunpoint (Reworked): For the immersion seekers, this brawl now forces a first-person perspective directly from the cockpit. No more hovering cameras—it’s just you, your dashboard, and the incoming fire.

    Balance Changes & Mechanics

    Beyond the flashy new parts, the “Playing with Fire” update brings some heavy-hitting balance tweaks. Specifically, the blast damage mechanics have been overhauled. Fragments have been reduced by 25%, and damage now drops off more sharply as you move away from the explosion’s centre. This means precision aiming is more rewarded than ever.

    Is the Battle Pass Worth It?

    While all players can unlock recipes for new structural parts and the “Springduck” (priorities, people!), the Battle Pass holders get access to upgraded versions of the new legendary weapons and exclusive cosmetics like the “Bearings” currency and unique portraits.

    The “Playing with Fire” season is live now on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. Whether you’re looking to master the new saw-launching meta or just want to watch the world burn, it’s time to head back to the garage.

  • Nekome: Nazi Hunter From Ruin Comes Retribution

    Nekome: Nazi Hunter From Ruin Comes Retribution

    ProbablyMonsters has officially pulled back the curtain on Nekome: Nazi Hunter, a stylised, third-person action-adventure that trades traditional military heroism for a gritty, personal odyssey of revenge.

    Set against the backdrop of war-torn Europe, you play as Vano Nastasu, a young Romani man on a hunt for the Nazi soldiers who murdered his family. This isn’t just another WWII shooter; it’s a grindhouse-inspired “symphony of violence” where every kill is intended to feel heavy and personal.

    The Core Intel

    Genre: Single-player, third-person action combat.

    Protagonist: Vano Nastasu, a survivor-turned-hunter.

    Gameplay Loop: A visceral blend of stealth scouting and brutal, up-close combat. Expect grounded finishing moves and “lasting consequences” for every encounter.

    Vibe: Heavy cinematic influence from grindhouse films—raw, violent, and unapologetically focused on retribution.

    What’s Next?

    While the reveal trailer sets a bold tone, the developers are holding back the deeper gameplay mechanics for a full reveal at GDC in March 2026.

    “A single-player story of loss, resolve, and what remains when there is nothing left to protect.”

  • The Neon Nostalgia of Inky, Blinky, and Bob

    The Neon Nostalgia of Inky, Blinky, and Bob

    If you grew up during the golden age of arcade gaming—or have a penchant for modern “retro-style” indies—you’ve likely encountered the colourful, frantic world of Inky, Blinky, and Bob. While the names pay homage to the classic Pac-Man ghosts, this title carves out its own identity as a fast-paced, addictive maze-runner that tests both reflexes and logic.

    What is the Game?

    At its core, Inky, Blinky, and Bob is a top-down arcade puzzler. Players must navigate a series of increasingly complex neon labyrinths. Unlike traditional games where you simply avoid enemies, this game introduces a unique “tag-team” mechanic or colour-coded logic that forces players to think two steps ahead.

    Key Gameplay Mechanics

    The game thrives on its “simple to learn, difficult to master” philosophy:

    • The Ghost Logic: Each character (Inky, Blinky, and Bob) has a specific movement pattern or elemental ability.
    • Colour Matching: Players often need to switch between characters or “absorb” certain colours to pass through barriers.
    • The Timer: It isn’t just about reaching the exit; it’s about doing it before your energy bar depletes, turning every level into a high-stakes sprint.

    Why It Stands Out

    In a sea of hyper-realistic 3D titles, Inky, Blinky, and Bob succeed by leaning into minimalism.

    FeatureWhy Players Love It
    VisualsVibrant, high-contrast neon aesthetics that pop off the screen.
    SoundtrackPulsating synth-wave tracks that sync with the game’s speed.
    ReplayabilityProcedural level generation ensures no two runs feel identical.

    Pro Tip: Don’t get cornered by Blinky! In most versions of the game, Blinky follows the “shortest path” algorithm, making him the most predictable—but also the most relentless—pursuer.

    The Verdict

    Whether you’re playing a mobile port or a browser-based version, Inky, Blinky, and Bob is a masterclass in distilled fun. It’s a love letter to the 1980s that feels perfectly at home in the 2020s.
