    Bodies, Basketballs, and Banquets — Grave Mistakes Serves Up Chaos in the Afterlife!

    Running a funeral home has never been this chaotic — or this questionable. Developer Happy Volcano and publisher Oro Interactive have lifted the lid on Grave Mistakes, a gleefully twisted co-op horror comedy for up to 4 players where the job description includes everything but respect.

    When the Deceased Don’t Stay Deceased

    Welcome to Good Mourning™ Funeral Home — where things go wrong with alarming regularity. Bodies go missing, parts get damaged, and grieving families are due any minute. The solution? Get creative. Swap a mangled head for something roughly spherical — a basketball, a melon, anything that sort of fits — and hope nobody asks too many questions. A limb gone AWOL? Find something similarly long and attach it. Panic, improvise, and pray they don’t notice.

    Grandma’s Dinner Has to Come From Somewhere

    That’s not the only secret simmering beneath the surface. There’s a side operation keeping the lights on — and the menu is uncomfortably familiar. Every shift balances two missions: pull off a convincing funeral service AND keep the supply chain flowing. The stakes are absurd, the humour is dark, and the consequences are deeply, delightfully awkward.

    Teamwork Makes the Fake-Work

    Up to four players manage the chaos together: prep bodies, craft convincing replacements, deliver eulogies with a straight face, and operate the organ while your friends scramble to hide the evidence. Proximity chat means your panicked whispers could be heard — or your loud improvisations could give the whole game away. Coordinate, cover for each other, or crash and burn in spectacular fashion.

    Beyond the Buffet — A Mystery Unfolds

    It’s not all slapstick substitutions. Beneath the madness lies a genuine mystery: why are things going wrong? What’s really happening at Good Mourning™? And how far does the rot go? Upgrade the funeral home, uncover clues, and figure out what — or who — is pulling the strings.

    Coming Soon

    Grave Mistakes arrives on Steam in November 2026. You can already wishlist it and sign up for upcoming playtests — perfect timing to gather your most untrustworthy friends and prepare for a service no one will ever forget.

    The viewing is starting — and someone’s head is missing. Good luck.

  • Watch, Run, Survive — CODE EXIT Playtest Goes Live on Steam!

    Watch, Run, Survive — CODE EXIT Playtest Goes Live on Steam!

    Every step is tracked. Every pattern is remembered. Developer Phase 8 Studio and publisher LINE Games have officially launched the playtest for CODE EXIT, a tense sci-fi co-op survival horror game where a rogue AI watches, learns, and hunts. The test runs now through October 19 — and you can request access directly on Steam.

    Minerva Is Watching You

    You’re a Hermes operative dropped into Pantheon, a once-great facility now fallen silent. Your mission: explore, secure critical data, and get out alive. But the facility isn’t empty — Minerva, an advanced artificial intelligence, controls everything. And she doesn’t just follow a script.

    • Adaptive AI — Minerva observes your tactics, remembers your routes, and evolves her hunting patterns. Stick to the same trick twice and she’ll be waiting for you
    • 1–4 player co-op — go solo or team up with friends; the threat scales with your group size
    • Dynamic layouts — no two runs are identical; rooms, objectives, and threats shift every time you enter
    • Fallen but not forgotten — downed players return as MiRO, a supportive drone that can assist the team and be revived
    • Stealth matters — S.O.M.A. awakens only to noise and movement; stay quiet and you might slip past
    • Psychological dread — sophisticated sound design keeps you tense; silence doesn’t mean safety

    What’s New Since May?

    This playtest builds on the well-received earlier demo with major refinements:

    • Three-stage sessions streamlined into one immersive, cohesive experience
    • Clearer, more direct mission objectives replacing overcomplicated puzzles
    • Redesigned co-op mechanics encouraging natural teamwork
    • Smarter, more unpredictable AI behaviour
    • Full online play support throughout the test period

(led by CEO Hiroto Nakajo) has officially announced that Japanese Ramen Simulator will launch into Steam Early Access on 28 September 2026 at 9:00 AM Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) — bringing authentic ramen-shop management chaos to up to six hungry players.

    What’s on the Menu?

    This isn’t just about boiling noodles — it’s about building your dream ramen empire, bowl by delicious bowl. Whether you fly solo or team up with friends, you’ll handle every part of the business:

    • From scratch to soup: Prepare fresh ingredients, craft rich broths, cook noodles to perfect texture, and layer on toppings — all with realistic physics and precise timing affecting taste and customer satisfaction.
    • Co-op for up to six: Split duties with your crew — one preps, one cooks, one serves, one manages the floor — or hire part-time staff to run the shop on your own.
    • Make it yours: Design your kitchen and dining area, create original ramen recipes, customise your shop’s look, and even decide on your signature soup-pouring style.
    • More than ramen: Serve gyoza, pour cold beer, handle rush-hour crowds, keep customers happy — and yes, even deal with unexpected visitors and the occasional thief!

    Why Early Access?

    Wild Dog Inc. plans to keep the game in development for roughly six months, refining recipes, mechanics, and features based directly on player feedback before the full release. The Early Access build already packs the full core experience — cooking, service, customisation, and multiplayer — with plenty of extras still simmering away.

    Ready to Open Your Doors?

    Japanese Ramen Simulator arrives on Steam Early Access 28 September 2026, 00:00 UTC / 01:00 BST. Add it to your wishlist now — over 50,000 aspiring ramen masters already have!

  • Into the Shadows — The Division 2: Echoes of Central Park Launches November 3!

    Into the Shadows — The Division 2: Echoes of Central Park Launches November 3!

    New York’s most iconic landmark has fallen silent — and something terrible has taken root. Ubisoft has officially unveiled The Division 2: Echoes of Central Park, the game’s darkest and most ambitious expansion yet, arriving November 3, 2026.

    The Signal. The Mission. The Horror.

    When the Strategic Homeland Division intercepts a mysterious distress signal deep within Central Park, you’re deployed to extract a high-value target: Miranda Veer. What starts as a standard rescue mission quickly unravels. The park — once a symbol of life — has become a place overtaken by fear, vanishing civilians, whispered legends, and a terrifying new apex threat lurking in the shadows.

    Rumours spread faster than truth. Factions vanish. And the deeper you go, the more you realise: you aren’t just hunting a target — you’re being hunted.

    Explore the Unseen

    For the first time in franchise history, step into Central Park and the Upper West Side — from Lincoln Square to the Dakota District. This isn’t the bustling green heart you remember; it’s a sprawling, decaying expanse where GPS fails, fog clings to the trees, and every shadow could be the last thing you see.

    Fight Together. Survive Together.

    You won’t face the dark alone. Three unique companions join your mission, each with specialised combat abilities and their own perspective on what’s happening:

    • Specialist — brings heavy firepower and defensive expertise
    • Analyst — deciphers clues, reveals hidden threats, and disrupts enemy networks
    • Survivor — knows the park better than anyone, guiding you through secret paths and ambushes

    What Awaits in the Dark

    The Truth Is Buried Deep

    Enemy factions — including the Black Tusk and the Cleaners — patrol the perimeter, but they’re not the real danger. Something has moved into the park. Something that turns missing people into something far worse. The urban legends aren’t just stories anymore. They’re warnings.

    Every choice, every path, every encounter shapes what you find — and what survives. The park has been waiting. Now, it’s your turn.

    Agents, your distress signal has been received. Echoes of Central Park — November 3. Don’t go alone.

    Walk in the Shadow — Hello Sunshine Unveils New Trailer at PC Gaming Show: Tokyo Direct

    Publisher Megabit and acclaimed Norwegian studio Red Thread Games have debuted a brand-new trailer for their atmospheric survival mystery Hello Sunshine, revealing fresh gameplay and story details during the PC Gaming Show: Tokyo Direct.

    Set in the sun-baked, desolate ruins of the once-mighty Sunshine corporate empire, this is survival with a single, unforgiving golden rule: never stray from the shadow.

    One Guardian. One Wasteland. A World Unravelling.

    You are the Final Employee — the last known survivor of a sprawling corporate regime that promised utopia and delivered collapse. Traversing an endless scorched desert, your only companion is a colossal, ancient robot — your shield from the blistering sun by day and your warmth by night.

    • Survive the extremes — stay within your giant guardian’s shadow through searing daylight; huddle close to its warmth as freezing nights descend
    • Scavenge & craft — salvage resources from abandoned settlements, upgrade your gear, and repair your robot companion
    • Play solo or co-op — brave the wasteland alone, or bring a friend for two-player shared survival
    • Uncover the truth — piece together why the world fell, why machines still fight, and what secrets the Sunshine Corporation buried
    • Explore a living, hostile landscape — derelict service stations, crumbling facilities, and the distant, mysterious White Tower mark the edges of your journey

    Trailer Reveals New Depths

    The freshly released footage shines a light on the evolving bond between you and your silent mechanical protector — and the dangers that await when you step beyond its protection. As the trailer shows, survival means balancing bold exploration against the deadly elements that define every moment.
