    Check In — Bloody Hell Hotel Sinks Its Fangs Into 2027 Release

    Your estate is in ruins, your guests are restless, and you haven’t had a decent meal in centuries.

    Developer Unfold Games — creators of the acclaimed psychological horror DARQ — alongside publisher Gambit Digital, has revealed a brand-new gameplay trailer for Bloody Hell Hotel, the upcoming first-person vampire hotel management sandbox. Formerly slated for a 2026 launch, the game has been rescheduled to arrive in 2027, giving the team time to refine every fang, feature, and floorboard.

    Wake Up — Your Empire Awaits

    You awake from a centuries-long coma to find your once-majestic family estate crumbling, overgrown, and forgotten. As a vampire, running a hotel isn’t exactly second nature — but survival demands it. Guests need beds, meals, and service; you need blood, resources, and coin. The twist? You’re not just an innkeeper — you’re a creature of the night balancing hospitality with hunger.

    Build, Farm, Fight — From Dungeon to Dining Room

    Bloody Hell Hotel blends tycoon progression with exploration and action, all wrapped in a rich, atmospheric gothic world:

    • Restore the Estate — Renovate rooms, expand facilities, upgrade amenities, and attract guests of increasing prestige. Your hotel evolves from derelict ruin to legendary destination
    • Forage & Farm — Scavenge materials across the grounds, grow crops, hunt for ingredients, and manage supplies in a world short on everything
    • Beneath the Surface — Descend into sprawling caves and monster-infested dungeons under the hotel. Fight twisted creatures, harvest rare resources, and uncover secrets vital to your revival
    • Vampire Life — Manage your thirst carefully. Keep guests happy… or quietly sate your darker needs. Every choice shapes your reputation and your business
    • Sandbox Freedom — Play your way: peaceful host, ruthless predator, or something in between

    From the Makers of DARQ

    Unfold Games earned widespread respect with DARQ, a puzzle-horror celebrated for its eerie atmosphere, clever mechanics, and artistic vision. Bloody Hell Hotel marks a bold shift — larger in scope, different in genre, yet crafted with the same dedication to immersive, distinctive design. Gambit Digital brings global publishing expertise to help the game reach players across PC and consoles.

    “We want Bloody Hell Hotel to feel special — a place players truly inhabit and shape,” the team shared. “Moving to 2027 lets us polish every system, expand the world, and deliver the experience players deserve.”

    Trailer & Timing

    The newly released gameplay trailer offers the clearest look yet at day-and-night cycles, renovation mechanics, dungeon combat, and guest interactions — all brought to life with striking lighting and gothic detail.

    • Platforms — PC via Steam & Epic Games Store; consoles to follow
    • Release — 2027
    • Wishlist — Available now on Steam & Epic

  • Roll the Dice — HeroQuest: Digital Edition Reborn as Official PC Adventure in 2027

    Roll the Dice — HeroQuest: Digital Edition Reborn as Official PC Adventure in 2027

    Decades ago, a tabletop classic taught the world how to explore dungeons. Now, it’s your turn.

    Developer Nomad Games and publisher Balor Games — in partnership with Hasbro — have officially unveiled HeroQuest: Digital Edition, the fully licensed digital revival of the legendary board game that defined a genre. Revealed during The MIX Fall Showcase, this faithful reimagining heads to PC via Steam in 2027, with a Closed Beta playtest opening soon for eager adventurers. Whether you first rolled the dice in the 1990s or have always dreamed of descending into the dungeon, the quest is finally coming home.

    The Realm Needs You

    The story remains as timeless as ever: the dread sorcerer Zargon has unleashed his monstrous legions to conquer the Realm. Standing between darkness and total victory are four heroes — the Barbarian, the Dwarf, the Elf, and the Wizard — each with unique skills, strengths, and vital roles to play. Alone, none can survive. Together, they might just prevail.

    • The Barbarian — frontline fury, breaking through defences and holding the line
    • The Dwarf — trap-finder, treasure-hunter, and unyielding warrior
    • The Elf — agile strike, ranged mastery, and bridge between martial and magical
    • The Wizard — devastating arcane power, fragile but formidable when protected

    Every quest demands teamwork. Positioning matters. And the dice decide who stands tall — and who falls.

    Play Your Way — Solo, Co-Op, or Be the Villain

    HeroQuest: Digital Edition is built for every kind of fellowship:

    • Solo — command all four heroes yourself, coordinating every move and planning every strike
    • Online Co-Op (up to 4) — each player leads one hero. Communicate, coordinate, and conquer together
    • Play as Zargon (5th Player) — ever wanted to be the one behind the traps, monsters, and ambushes? A fifth player can take the villain’s throne, plotting and scheming against the heroes in real time

    This isn’t just a one-way story — it’s a battle of wits on both sides of the dungeon door.

    Endless Quests — Handcrafted and Home-Brewed

    Faithful to the spirit of the original, the game delivers:

    • Handcrafted Official Quests — faithfully adapted from the classic campaign, with every tile, monster, and treasure brought vividly to life
    • Quest Editor — build your own dungeons, design your own challenges, and craft stories as boundless as your imagination
    • Community Creations via mod.io — download and play quests created by fellow adventurers across the globe, keeping the dungeon fresh forever
    • Authentic Dice & Combat — roll for attack, defence, and movement just like the tabletop. Luck is a factor — but smart positioning and bold strategy win the day

    For Everyone — Supported in 8 Languages

    HeroQuest: Digital Edition is being built to welcome players worldwide:

    • Full English voice acting + subtitles in French, German, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Portuguese-Brazil, and Spanish-Latin America
    • Runs smoothly — GTX 1050 minimum, 10GB storage, 16GB RAM
    • Steam store page live now — wishlist to be notified the moment beta sign-ups open

    The Legend Returns

    For millions, HeroQuest was the first door into fantasy adventure. It taught us that a shared map and a handful of dice could lead anywhere. Now, Nomad Games — veterans of beloved digital adaptations including Talisman — and Balor Games are bringing that magic to modern screens, preserving the soul of the original while making it accessible to a whole new generation.

    The dungeon is waiting. The dice are ready. And Zargon is not going down without a fight.

    Wishlist HeroQuest: Digital Edition on Steam now, watch the reveal trailer from The MIX Fall Showcase, and sign up for the Closed Beta. The quest begins when you roll.

  • The End of the World Has Never Been So Whimsical — Dr Finklestein’s Marvelous Room Lands Shochiku Games Partnership

    The End of the World Has Never Been So Whimsical — Dr Finklestein’s Marvelous Room Lands Shochiku Games Partnership

    The universe is ending. Humanity’s last hope? A mad scientist, a mysterious room, and 50 items from 50 different realities.

    Shochiku Games — the game publishing division of Japan’s historic Shochiku Co., Ltd. — has announced a partnership with independent studio DEVBEEF to publish Dr. Finklestein’s Marvelous Room, a charmingly bizarre story-driven sandbox adventure heading to PC via Steam in 2027. The news was revealed alongside a brand-new trailer during The MIX Fall Online Showcase, giving players their first proper look at the experiment that might just save everything.

    The Dark Doodad Is Coming

    It begins with a broadcast no one wanted to receive: the International Space Agency and the US Office of Planetary Defense have failed. A cosmic entity known as NBX-291 — or more colloquially, the “Dark Doodad” — is approaching Earth, and within hours, humanity will cease to exist.

    But one man refuses to go quietly. Enter Dr. Gumphrey Finklestein, PhD — an eccentric, unflappable scientist of the old school who has a plan. Not a missile defence system, not a planetary shield, but something far stranger: The Marvelous Room.

    Step Inside the Impossible

    Deep within a facility in Nevada sits a chamber capable of doing what no physics textbook says should be possible: pulling objects, trinkets, and oddities from other universes and realities into our own. Finklestein’s theory is delightfully unhinged: gather 50 items from 50 different worlds, study them, understand them, and from their combined essence, manifest a weapon powerful enough to stop the Dark Doodad.

    You are the Participant — the sole observer and operator guiding VINC-ENT, a repair droid typically used for space station maintenance, through the experiment. Every item that materialises is a surprise — a fragment of a reality that never was, a tool from a world with different rules, a curiosity that tells a tiny, strange story. And as you catalogue each one, the larger picture begins to form: who — or what — is the Doctor? And is he really saving us, or conducting the greatest experiment in history?

    Sandbox Storytelling — Where You Lead the Narrative

    This isn’t a straight line; it’s a room full of possibilities:

    • Dynamic Narration — the tale shifts based on what you examine, how you interact with each item, and the paths you choose to explore
    • Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Soul — conversations, discoveries, and even the Doctor’s own confidence evolve depending on your curiosity
    • Equal Parts Whimsy & Wonder — from Cold War paranoia to cosmic surrealism, the game blends retro-futuristic charm with genuinely profound questions about identity, reality, and what it means to be “real”
    • Accessible First-Person Exploration — a walking-simulator heart with sandbox freedom; take your time, look closely, and let the items speak

    A Studio with 130 Years of Storytelling

    Shochiku isn’t new to creating worlds — it’s one of Japan’s oldest and most respected film studios, with over 130 years of narrative craft behind it. For Shochiku Games, led by Hiroaki Ishige, this partnership is about bringing that cinematic heritage to interactive spaces:

    “When I first played the demo, I sensed tremendous potential in its originality and creativity. Since our core business is the film industry, I also felt the cinematic presentation was a perfect fit. We hope this project will be a success and expand significantly, including through transmedia initiatives.” — Hiroaki Ishige, Head of Shochiku Games

    For DEVBEEF — the team behind this years-in-the-making passion project — the feeling is equally electric:

    “This game has grown beyond our wildest dreams. We can’t wait for players to step inside the Marvelous Room and unravel the story we’ve been weaving for years.” — Bodie Reed, DEVBEEF

    Ready to Materialise — Wishlist Now

    Dr. Finklestein’s Marvelous Room is targeting a 2027 release on PC (Steam), with the store page live now. Key details:

    • Full English audio + subtitles in Russian, Spanish, and Czech
    • Full controller support alongside native keyboard/mouse play
    • Steam Achievements, Cloud Saves, and Family Sharing included
    • Runs smoothly — 8GB RAM, 8GB VRAM recommended
    • Watch the new publisher trailer via The MIX Showcase now

    The Clock Is Ticking — Will You Answer the Call?

    The Dark Doodad is drawing nearer. The items are waiting. And somewhere in Nevada, a very determined scientist is watching the dials.

    Dr. Finklestein’s Marvelous Room isn’t just about saving the world — it’s about realising how many worlds there are to save.

    Wishlist Dr. Finklestein’s Marvelous Room on Steam, watch the reveal trailer, and prepare to step inside. The experiment begins when you do.

  • Feel the Flight — Rescue Drone Simulator: Second Chance Drops First Gameplay Trailer

    Feel the Flight — Rescue Drone Simulator: Second Chance Drops First Gameplay Trailer

    You’ve seen the concept. Now feel the mission.

    Anraga Studios and The Farm 51 — the acclaimed team behind Chernobylite and Get Even — have just unveiled the very first gameplay trailer for Rescue Drone Simulator: Second Chance, pulling back the curtain not just on how the game looks, but how it flies. It’s a rescue experience where the machine matters as much as the mission — and every second counts.

    When Heroes Can’t Go In, You Send You

    Set in a believable near-future, this is a world where the most dangerous places — burning high-rises, storm-battered coasts, collapsed tunnels, and radiation zones — are simply no longer safe for human rescuers to enter. So they send you. You’re not just flying a camera; you’re piloting a physical machine with real weight, real drag, and real consequences.

    This isn’t about speed runs or acrobatics — it’s about pushing into the unknown, finding those who are trapped, and bringing them home. And you’re not alone.

    Four Drones, Four Lifelines

    The trailer showcases the game’s fleet of purpose-built machines, each designed for a different kind of crisis:

    • Rescue Drone — tracks missing people, drops medical supplies, and marks safe zones
    • Firefighting Drone — carries extinguishers and water payloads into blazes too hot to approach
    • Police & Recon Drone — agile, fast, and built for surveillance, search, and securing perimeters
    • Heavy-Lift Drone — carries gear, clears debris, and delivers heavy aid where it’s needed most

    Every drone handles differently — and every mission demands the right choice before you even take off.

    Flight That Feels Real — For Everyone

    The Farm 51 has built a flight model grounded in physics, not fantasy:

    • Mass, inertia, and battery life — climb too hard and you drain power; carry too much and you slow down
    • Wind, smoke, and turbulence — a gale can push you off course; heat from a fire can buffet you sideways
    • Two control modes — Simulator for authentic, demanding piloting; Arcade with stabilisation and assists so anyone can jump in and save lives
    • Customise and tune in the workshop — swap motors, batteries, propellers, and sensors to match your playstyle and the mission ahead

    Whether you’re a seasoned pilot or a first-time flyer, the goal stays the same: get there, find them, bring them back.

    More Than a Job — A Second Chance for Everyone

    Beneath the machinery lies a deeply human story. Your team — a firefighter who can no longer enter burning buildings, a paramedic haunted by calls he couldn’t answer, an investigator who mistrusts the very tech she uses, and a specialist fighting to clear her name — each carries their own scars. Across 20 story missions and 5 distinct maps, you’re saving more than strangers — you’re saving each other.

    Every call-out brings new emergencies, new locations, and new fragments of the team’s journey toward redemption.

    Coming Q1 2027 — Wishlist Now

    Rescue Drone Simulator: Second Chance lands on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in Q1 2027. The Steam store page is live — wishlist today to catch every update and be first to know when it launches.

  • Catch Air — HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate Blazes New Trails in The MIX Showcase Debut

    Catch Air — HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate Blazes New Trails in The MIX Showcase Debut

    Things are heating up on the slopes.

    Wabisabi Games and publisher Acclaim Inc. have just dropped a blistering new gameplay trailer for HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate during The MIX: Fall Online Showcase — and it’s everything Y2K-era extreme sports fans have been waiting for. Think SSX Tricky, 1080° Avalanche, and Jet Grind Radio rolled into one neon-bright, gravity-defying package — and it’s carving toward Steam and consoles in 2027.

    A Love Letter to the Golden Age of Shred

    For anyone who grew up pulling impossible spins, chaining trick combos, and boosting past opponents down mountainsides, HYPERyuki feels instantly familiar — and thrillingly fresh. This isn’t just a snowboarding game; it’s a celebration of that turn-of-the-millennium energy: bold colours, bigger tricks, and pure, unapologetic fun.

    “We’re making the game we always wanted to play,” says the team at Mexico City-based Wabisabi Games — creators of the vibrant RKGK / Rakugaki. Every frame pulses with the same stylistic flair: sleek character designs, dazzling lighting, and soundtrack beats that hit as hard as a perfect landing.

    Volcanic Slopes, Ice Caves, and Wild New Riders

    The showcase trailer pulls back the curtain on never-before-seen terrain that ranges from the freezing to the fiery:

    • Active volcano runs — ash, lava, and near-misses as you carve down scorching slopes
    • Glittering ice caves — winding, crystal-lit descents where precision meets spectacle
    • High-alpine forests and beyond — routes that twist, soar, and surprise at every turn

    Joining the cast are brand-new playable riders, each with their own boarding style, personality, and signature moves. And yes — the trailer confirms some delightfully unexpected contenders, including a giant snowboarding kaiju and a living taco, because why not?

    Trick. Boost. Repeat. Master the Mountain.

    At its core, HYPERyuki is built on speed, style, and satisfaction:

    • Fluid trick system — string together grabs, grinds, flips, and spins to build your boost meter
    • Boost to the lead — go faster, fly farther, and unlock even more spectacular manoeuvres
    • Flow rewards everything — the smoother your run, the higher your score and the wilder your combos
    • Accessible depth — easy to pick up, with layers of technique for those chasing the perfect run

    A free demo is on the way to Steam so you can feel the rush for yourself before launch.

    Coming Everywhere — Next Year

    HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate is scheduled to land on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch in 2027. Wishlist now to catch every update — and be first to know when that demo drops.

    The Mountain’s Calling — Will You Answer?

  • Truth, Time & The Final Path — The Talos Principle 3 Reveals First Gameplay!

    Truth, Time & The Final Path — The Talos Principle 3 Reveals First Gameplay!

    Questions have led to answers. Answers have led to new mysteries. Now, the journey reaches its end. Croteam and publisher Devolver Digital have officially unveiled the first gameplay of The Talos Principle 3 — the grand, philosophical finale to one of the most celebrated puzzle trilogies in gaming — during the Triple-I Initiative showcase, ahead of its launch in 2027 on PC and PlayStation 5.

    The Anomaly — Where Reality Bends

    You awaken in a place that shouldn’t exist: the Anomaly — a fractured, haunting landscape where crumbling ancient temples stand beside derelict science outposts, and the laws of physics themselves fray and fail. Your memories are scattered, your purpose unclear, but one thing is certain: you have come here to find the truth — not just about this world, but about yourself, and the long, winding story of humanity that brought you here.

    “Some say the Anomaly is Heaven. Some say it’s Hell. All that’s certain is that judgement awaits.”

    Puzzles Deepened, Worlds Expanded

    The gameplay reveal offers a substantial first look at what awaits — a journey that honours the series’ roots while boldly evolving them:

    • Familiar mechanics, radical new systems — the signature puzzles that defined the first two games return, now woven alongside entirely fresh devices, logic challenges, and environmental twists that exploit the Anomaly’s broken physics
    • Choice in how you play — progress through the essential path, or dive deeper into the Anomaly’s hidden secrets, harder puzzles, and untold stories. The choice is yours
    • Beyond the infinite — explore dozens of distinct worlds, each with its own identity, puzzles, and characters, stretching across the vast, fractured expanse
    • A generation-spanning narrative — piece together your own life as an explorer and the centuries-long history of the civilisation that built everything you see. Every puzzle solved, every secret unearthed, adds another layer to the story

    The Final Chapter of a Legacy

    Since the first game’s release in 2014, The Talos Principle has stood apart — not just as a benchmark for thoughtful puzzle design, but as a rare work that asks players to think as deeply about existence, consciousness, and legacy as they do about switches and portals. The Talos Principle 3 promises to tie every thread together with the same care, writing team, and composer that made the series beloved.
