Arrakis just got a whole lot bigger—and significantly more forgiving. Chapter 3 of Dune: Awakening is officially live, and it’s being hailed as the game’s most substantial update since launch.
Whether you’re a hardened survivor of the Deep Desert or a “sleeper” looking to return, here is the breakdown of the biggest changes:
The “No More Taxes” Revolution
In a move that has the community cheering, the Emperor has officially abolished base taxation. You no longer need to make regular treks to social hubs to pay CHOAM just to keep your shields powered. Build as big as you want without the constant dread of your base being reclaimed by the storm.
Combat & Gameplay Overhauls
New Weapons: Introduce some chaos with the Pyrocket (explosive fun) and Dual Blades for fast-paced, shield-bypassing strikes.
Rapier Rework: The Rapier has been completely redesigned with a unique, more fluid playstyle.
Specialisations: You can now invest in five distinct progression paths: Combat, Sabotage, Exploration, Gathering, and Crafting.
Rebuilt Landsraad & Endgame
The endgame has been entirely revamped to give you more purpose once you hit Tier 6:
10 New Locations: Including 5 overland challenge zones and 5 repeatable Imperial Testing Stations with escalating boss difficulty.
Landsraad Missions: A new repeatable mission system that builds your Faction Rank and Great House Standing.
Augmentation Station: Customise and power up your Tier 6 gear with the new Augment system to fine-tune your build.
The “Welcome Back” Gift
If you haven’t logged in for 28 days or more, Funcom is offering a Return Package. It scales based on your research level and provides enough resources to get a base and vehicle back up and running immediately.
Note: Launching alongside the free update is the Raiders of the Broken Lands paid DLC (included in the Season Pass), which adds over 70 new Smuggler-themed building pieces and decorations.

The long-awaited drop is finally here. After years of PC-exclusive survival, ICARUS: Console Edition is officially making its planetary debut.
Whether you’re a veteran prospector or a first-time survivor, here is everything you need to know about the jump to PlayStation and Xbox.
The Launch Details
Release Date: February 26, 2026.
Platforms: PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
The Content: This isn’t just a port of the 2021 base game. The Console Edition includes the New Frontiers expansion from day one, giving you access to the massive, alien-infested region of Prometheus.
What to Expect on Icarus
If you’re new to the lore, Icarus is a session-based PvE survival game from the creator of DayZ. You are a prospector dropping onto a broken planet where terraforming went catastrophically wrong.
Hostile Environments: From toxic atmosphere to flash storms and “flesh-eating” wildlife, the planet wants you dead.
The Mission: Land, complete your objective (or just build a massive base), mine for rare Exotics, and get back to orbit before your timer runs out.
Progression: Use your hard-earned Exotics in the Orbital Workshop to buy permanent high-tech gear for your next drop.
Console-Specific Features
Optimised Performance: Expect 4K resolution and 60 FPS on the latest hardware.
Multiplayer: Team up with up to 4 players in online co-op.
No Cross-play: Take note—cross-play is not supported between PC and consoles, nor between PS5 and Xbox. You’ll need to be on the same platform as your squad.
Pre-order Bonus: Grabbing the game early unlocks the Pet Companions Pack, which adds 11 domestic animals (cats, dogs, and horses) to help keep you sane in the wilderness.
Pro Tip: If you’re playing solo, make sure to invest in the Solo Talent Tree. It provides massive buffs to health and harvesting speed that are disabled when playing in a group, making the “lone wolf” life much more viable.
The wait for the ultimate zombie crossover is over. As of January 29, 2026, Saber Interactive has officially released the World War Z x The Walking Dead DLC, bringing the gritty, character-driven atmosphere of AMC’s hit series into the high-octane swarm mechanics of World War Z.
For fans who have spent years debating how Rick Grimes would handle a “Zeke” mountain, this expansion provides a definitive (and bloody) answer.
New Story Campaign: The Iconic Road
The DLC introduces a brand-new story episode featuring three chapters set in legendary locations from the show. Rather than just being “WWZ maps with a coat of paint,” these levels have been redesigned to feel more claustrophobic and tense, mirroring the survival horror roots of The Walking Dead.
The Prison: Navigate the fences and cell blocks where the group once sought refuge.
Alexandria Safe Zone: Defend the walls of the community against an encroaching tide.
Grady Memorial Hospital: A haunting urban crawl through the remnants of Atlanta.
Playable Legends
Forget the generic survivors; you can now step into the boots of the “Big Four.” Perhaps most excitingly, Andrew Lincoln and Norman Reedus have returned to provide voice acting for their respective characters, ensuring the authentic grit of the show remains intact.
Character
Signature Weapon Skin
Rick Grimes
Rick’s Colt Python (for the Revolver Casull 6)
Daryl Dixon
Daryl’s Crossbow (for the Crossbow Repeater X)
Michonne
New Melee: Michonne’s Katana
Negan
New Melee: Negan’s Bat “Lucille”
Slower Swarms, Deadlier Threats
In a bold gameplay shift, the Zekes in this campaign have been replaced by Walkers. While they move slower than the typical World War Z sprinter, they are no less lethal. To keep veteran players on their toes, the DLC introduces the Spiked Walker—a new special infected with an armoured head and a body covered in rebar that causes bleeding damage on contact. You’ll need to knock them prone before you can finish them with a melee strike.
“We wanted to prove that slow and fast zombies can coexist, albeit delightfully un-peacefully.” — Saber Interactive Dev Blog
Availability
The DLC is available now for £7.99 / $9.99 on:
PC (Steam & Epic Games Store)
PlayStation 5 & PlayStation 4
Xbox Series X|S & Xbox One
Whether you’re a Rick Grimes loyalist or just want to see how “Lucille” handles a swarm of five hundred zombies, this crossover is a massive milestone for the genre.
It’s time to stoke the engines and prepare for another descent into the frozen depths. Monster Train 2: Destiny of the Railforged has officially arrived, and it manages to do the impossible: it makes the original’s tight, addictive loop feel like a mere warm-up.
If you loved the vertical tower-defence-meets-deckbuilding chaos of the first game, here is why you’ll likely lose another 100 hours to the sequel.
What’s New on the Tracks?
The “Railforged” Mechanic: You aren’t just defending a train anymore; you’re actively upgrading it. The new customisation system allows you to swap out room layouts and install “Engine Cores” that fundamentally change how your deck behaves.
Dual-Class Synergy 2.0: The clan combinations return, but with deeper “Cross-Pollination” cards that only unlock when you hit specific resonance levels between your primary and allied clans.
3D Visual Overhaul: The jump to a stylised 3D engine makes the spells feel weightier and the gargantuan bosses even more intimidating as they loom over your top floor.
The Destiny Map: Instead of a linear path, you now navigate a shifting map where your choices impact the “Heat” level of the run—balancing high-reward treasures against increasingly brutal enemy buffs.
Why It Hits Different
The beauty of Monster Train has always been its “brokenness.” While other deckbuilders focus on incremental gains, this series wants you to find a way to do $10,000$ damage in a single turn. Destiny of the Railforged leans into that power fantasy even harder, giving you the tools to create truly monstrous combinations that feel like you’re cheating—until the Seraph-tier bosses show up to check your ego.
Pro Tip: Don’t sleep on the new Clockwork Clan. Their ability to “Rewind” unit deaths can turn a disastrous turn into a flawless victory if you time your resource spending correctly.

The Fog has just gotten a lot more crowded—and significantly more dangerous. Following the massive conclusion of Stranger Things Season 5, Behaviour Interactive has officially launched the highly anticipated Stranger Things Chapter 2 on January 27, 2026.
While the original 2019 chapter brought us the Demogorgon, this second expansion dives deep into the series’ finale, bringing the true mastermind of Hawkins’ suffering into the Entity’s Realm.
The New Killer: Vecna (The First)
Known to some as Henry Creel and others as One, The First enters the game as a powerful, reality-warping Killer. Unlike the Dungeons & Dragons version of Vecna already in the game, this iteration is ripped straight from the Netflix series, complete with his iconic fleshy vines and telekinetic malice.
The Power: Test Subject #001
The Worldbreaker: Vecna can slip into the Upside Down to navigate the map with frightening speed, emerging through “Undergates” to surprise Survivors.
Grandfather Clocks: His presence introduces a new environmental mechanic. Cursed Survivors must find and interact with Grandfather Clocks to stave off a mounting dread that makes them vulnerable to a brutal, bone-shattering final blow.
The Survivors: Eleven & Dustin Henderson
Two of Hawkins’ most iconic heroes have finally joined the roster, bringing powerful new utility to the Survivor side.
Eleven (Jane Hopper): Her perks focus on her psychic resilience. With Extrasensory Perception, she can see auras while crouching, though at the cost of being temporarily Oblivious to the Killer’s presence.
Dustin Henderson: The group’s resident strategist brings technical ingenuity. His perk Bada Bada Boom allows him to transform toolboxes into med-kits while hiding in lockers, providing crucial mid-match adaptability.
Legendary Outfits: Eddie & Robin
Fans who want to play as other fan favourites are in luck. The chapter launches with two high-fidelity Legendary Outfits that completely transform existing characters, including original voice lines:
Eddie Munson (for Dustin Henderson)
Robin Buckley (for Nancy Wheeler)
Why It Matters
This update marks a shift toward Environmental Horror in Dead by Daylight. By adding physical objectives like the Grandfather Clocks and a Killer that literally traverses a sub-dimension, Chapter 2 feels more like a psychological thriller than a simple game of tag.
Whether you’re a “Steve Main” looking to reunite the Scoop Troop or a Killer enthusiast ready to shatter some bones as Henry Creel, the Upside Down has never felt more at home in the Fog.
Note: Stranger Things Chapter 2 is available now on all platforms. Purchasing the full DLC also unlocks the exclusive “Mind Flayer” Badge and “Bloody Rainbow Room” Banner.

DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO continues to dominate the arena fighter scene with a massive 2026 roadmap that blends free gameplay overhauls with high-octane character expansions.
Following its successful launch on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 late last year, developer Spike Chunsoft is doubling down on the “Tenkaichi” legacy with fresh content for the new year.
The 2026 DLC Roadmap
The current year is divided into three major phases, focusing on single-player depth and iconic roster additions.
1. The “Mission 100” Update (January 26, 2026)
Just released this week, this free update is a direct love letter to Budokai Tenkaichi 3 fans.
Mission 100 Mode: A solo challenge mode featuring 100 unique combat scenarios. Each mission has specific win conditions and team restrictions, making it the perfect playground for testing character-specific strategies.
System Refinements: The update also introduced “Ultra” difficulty for the CPU and a bulk-purchase feature for the in-game shop.
2. Survival Mode (Spring 2026)
Coming later this spring, another free expansion will introduce an Endurance-based Survival Mode. Players will face a gauntlet of opponents with limited health recovery between rounds, emphasising resource management and defensive play.
3. Major Summer DLC Expansion (Summer 2026)
The biggest news is the upcoming paid DLC expansion set for this summer. While the official title is still under wraps, the teaser trailer has confirmed a heavy focus on fan-favourite “missing” legends:
Confirmed Characters:Super Android 17 (GT), King Piccolo (Original DB), and Super Saiyan Bardock.
New Moves: Customizable Super Attacks for base-roster icons like Goku and Vegeta.
New Stages: Additional battlegrounds, including a rumored Roshi’s Island revamp.
Theme Song: For the first time in 18 years, the legendary Hironobu Kageyama has written and performed a new theme song specifically for this expansion.

The Mission 100 update and upcoming Summer DLC will arrive later this winter, as the platform is currently catching up with the DAIMA character packs.
Looking Further Ahead: “Age 1000”
While you’re grinding through Sparking! ZERO, keep an eye on April 2026. Bandai Namco has teased a new project titled “Dragon Ball: Age 1000” for 2027. It is reportedly one of the final projects Akira Toriyama worked on before his passing, focusing on a future era of the Dragon Ball timeline.

Yesterday, VR studio TREBUCHET officially released the “Grind & Shine” DLC (often referred to by fans by its industrial “Rise & Grind” theme) for Prison Boss Prohibition, the high-stakes sequel to the cult hit Prison Boss VR.
The expansion, which launched January 22, 2026, on Meta Quest and SteamVR, pivots from the brewery and tailoring of previous updates toward the gritty world of industrial blacksmithing.
New Turf: The Town of Scrambleton
Players are transported away from the familiar streets of New Yolk City to Scrambleton, a smog-filled 1930s rail-town. The setting introduces a new level of environmental immersion, featuring passing trains and boarded-up warehouses that serve as the backdrop for your latest illegal operations.
Forging a Fortune with “The Eggsploiters”
The DLC introduces a powerful new faction: The Eggsploiters. These ruthless gold-mine tycoons and businessmen serve as your new patrons, demanding high-end goods that require a mastery of metalwork. To meet their needs, players will utilise a brand-new suite of tools, including:
The Grindstone & Ring Moulds: For polishing and finishing luxury items.
The crafting catalogue has expanded significantly, allowing players to create gold bars, gemstones, rings, watches, and even “dodgy” tools like wrenches and razors to sell on the black market.
Bribes and “Blue-Coats”
Accompanying the DLC is a free base-game update that adds a layer of strategy to police encounters. Players can now throw cash at police officers (values ranging from $8 to $13) to bribe them into turning back. However, the mechanic carries a risk; if you miss the throw or get caught while your money respawns on the counter, the law will crack down even harder.
The update also introduces a variety of new male and female police character models and several “quality of life” fixes, such as improved multiplayer voice syncing and smoother tool physics.
Price & Availability: The Grind & Shine DLC is available now for $4.99. It is also included for owners of the Season Pass, which launched in December for $7.99.
The DRAGON BALL Z: KAKAROT – DAIMA-Adventure Through the Demon Realm Pack Part 2 is officially dropping, and it’s time to see what Goku (Mini) and his allies can really do!

New Exploration: Discover hidden secrets and breathtaking landscapes in parts of the Demon Realm we’ve never seen before.
Intense Boss Battles: Face off against powerful new foes that will test your RPG skills to the limit!
Whether you’re in it for the nostalgia or the brand-new lore, this DLC is a must-play for every Dragon Ball fan.
Check out the trailer now and let us know: Which new character are you most excited to play as?
What happens when the fastest zombies in gaming collide with the grittiest survivors in TV history? We just found out.
If you’re a fan of zombie media, there are two very distinct flavors that have dominated the last decade.
On one side, you have World War Z (WWZ): high-octane, cooperative chaos where the sheer volume of the undead—flowing like water over walls and through streets—is the primary threat. It’s fast, loud, and adrenaline-fueled.
On the other side, you have The Walking Dead (TWD): a slow-burn study of human endurance where resources are scarce, every bullet counts, and the shambling “walkers” are often secondary to the threat of other living people.
For years, gamers have debated: “Could Rick Grimes survive a WWZ swarm?” or “How would a WWZ slasher class fare with only Daryl’s crossbow?”
Well, Saber Interactive just answered those questions. The World War Z x The Walking Dead crossover DLC is finally here, and it’s a fascinating, brutal collision of two very different apocalypses. I got hands-on with the new content, and here is the breakdown.
The Survivors: Icons Join the Fight
The biggest draw here, naturally, is the new playable characters. We aren’t just getting generic skins; we are getting full-voiced models of the Atlanta survivors, each designed to fit into existing WWZ classes while retaining their unique flair.
Rick Grimes (The Gunslinger): Rick feels incredibly grounded. His signature Python revolver is a beast, acting as a unique starting secondary that packs a massive punch against special infected. His perks focus on team buffs and precision headshots under pressure.
Daryl Dixon (The Fixer/Slasher Hybrid): Daryl is interesting. He comes equipped with his iconic crossbow (which is surprisingly viable in WWZ due to its ability to pierce multiple Zeke quietly). He excels at stealth kills before the swarm hits and has high melee stamina.
Michonne (The Slasher): This was the no-brainer. Michonne is terrifying in this engine. Her katana swings are wider and faster than standard machetes, turning her into a lawnmower when caught in a narrow corridor. If you love the melee playstyle, she is now your main.
Carol Peletier (The Hellraiser): A surprise, but a welcome one. Reflecting her evolution in the show into a one-woman army, Carol is decked out for explosive damage. Her ability to clear crowds with improvised explosives is crucial when the swarm mechanics kick in.
The Gameplay Mashup: Gritty vs. Speedy
How do you put TWD’s slow-paced tension into WWZ’s sprinting mayhem? The developers made some smart choices here.
The DLC introduces a new campaign episode set in the American South, titled “Georgia Burning.” The atmosphere is pure TWD—sun-bleached highways, abandoned camps, and oppressive humidity.
But the real change is in the enemy variety. Alongside the usual sprinting Zeke, the DLC peppers in “Walkers.” These are significantly tougher, slower zombies that don’t go down easily to body shots. They act as mobile sandbags, blocking doorways and absorbing fire while the fast Zeke swarm around them.
Furthermore, this campaign features a “Scarcity Modifier.” Ammo crates have fewer refills, and heavy weapons are harder to come by. This forces a very TWD style of play: conserve ammo during the quiet moments, rely on Michonne and Daryl for silent takedowns, and unleash hell only when the swarm music starts. It adds a layer of tactical dread that WWZ sometimes lacks.
The Verdict: A Perfect Mismatch
This DLC shouldn’t work. The philosophies of the two franchises are polar opposites. Yet, the contrast is exactly what makes it fun.
Playing as Rick Grimes, standing atop an overturned RV, frantically reloading his Python while literally thousands of Zeke pile up against the vehicle, feels like the ultimate fan-fiction come to life. It grounds the cartoonish excess of WWZ with character weight, and it gives the TWD crew the high-budget action sequence they deserve.
If you own World War Z, this is essential content. It’s more than just a character pack; it’s a successful merging of two titans of the zombie genre. Grab your katana, count your bullets, and get ready for the horde.
The World War Z x The Walking Dead DLC is available now on PC and consoles.
World War Z x The Walking Dead DLC – https://wwzgame.com/
Fans of the cooperative zombie-slaying action of World War Z have something truly exciting to sink their teeth into: the new “Aftermath” DLC! This isn’t just a small content drop; it’s a significant expansion that brings new perspectives, new threats, and even more frantic fun to the already intense world of World War Z. So grab your strongest weapon, rally your squad, and let’s dive into what makes Aftermath a must-play for veterans and newcomers alike.
First-Person Ferocity: A Game Changer!
Perhaps the most impactful addition in Aftermath is the First-Person Mode. While the original game’s third-person perspective allowed for a good overview of the chaos, switching to first-person completely redefines the experience. Imagine standing shoulder-to-shoulder with your teammates, the towering waves of zombies now feeling even more immediate and terrifying as they surge towards you. Every close call, every headshot, every swing of a melee weapon feels incredibly visceral and personal.
This new perspective isn’t just a gimmick; it genuinely amplifies the tension and immersion. You’ll find yourself more acutely aware of every rustle and groan, making the already challenging encounters even more heart-pounding. It’s an optional mode, so you can switch between perspectives, but once you go first-person, you might find it hard to go back!
New Locations, New Dangers: Rome and Kamchatka
Aftermath takes us to two brand new, distinct locations, each with its own unique challenges and atmosphere.
First, we head to Rome. The ancient, beautiful streets of the Eternal City are now overrun with the undead. Fighting through iconic landmarks, navigating narrow alleyways, and utilising the urban environment for strategic defence creates a fresh tactical experience. The contrast between the historical grandeur and the apocalyptic horror is striking, making for some truly memorable battlefields.
Then, the journey takes us to the frozen, unforgiving landscape of Kamchatka. This new episode throws players into brutal blizzards and desolate industrial zones, adding a layer of environmental hazard to the constant zombie threat. The harsh weather conditions can obscure vision and slow movement, demanding even greater coordination and resourcefulness from your team.
Both locations bring new narrative elements, expanding the lore of the World War Z universe and giving players more reasons to fight against the relentless tide.
The Swarm Just Got Angrier: New Special Zombies
What’s a zombie game without new special infected to keep you on your toes? Aftermath introduces a terrifying new enemy: the Rats. No, not just a few scurrying rodents, but hordes of them that can quickly overwhelm unsuspecting players. These aren’t your typical slow-moving zombies; the rat swarm is fast, relentless, and demands a different approach to combat. You’ll need to be quick on your feet and communicate effectively to avoid being swarmed and torn apart.
While the exact details of other new special zombies are best experienced firsthand, suffice it to say that the developers have found new ways to challenge players, forcing them to adapt their strategies and master new tactics.
The Vanguard Class and Melee Mayhem
Aftermath also brings a brand new playable class to the roster: the Vanguard. This class is designed for players who love to get up close and personal with the undead. Equipped with a powerful electrified shield, the Vanguard can literally charge through hordes of zombies, knocking them back and creating vital breathing room for their teammates.
This emphasis on melee combat is further enhanced by a new, deeper melee system. Expect more variety in weapons, new perks, and satisfyingly brutal animations that make cleaving through the undead more enjoyable than ever.
Horde Mode XL: The Ultimate Test
If you thought the regular Horde Mode was intense, prepare yourself for Horde Mode XL. This new iteration significantly increases the number of zombies on screen, pushing the game’s Swarm Engine to its absolute limits. We’re talking about truly colossal hordes that will test your team’s coordination, resource management, and sheer grit. It’s the ultimate challenge for those who crave unrelenting action and want to see just how long they can survive against impossible odds.
Final Thoughts: Is Aftermath Worth It?
Absolutely. World War Z: Aftermath is more than just an expansion; it feels like a significant upgrade to the core game. The first-person perspective fundamentally changes the feel of combat, the new locations are beautifully designed and challenging, and the new class and enemies add valuable depth. For fans of the original, it’s a no-brainer. For those who haven’t jumped into World War Z yet, Aftermath offers the most complete and thrilling experience to date.
So, if you’re ready to face an even bigger, badder, and more immersive zombie apocalypse, then gather your squad, load up, and dive into World War Z: Aftermath. The swarm awaits!

Her presence adds an exciting narrative connection to the prior titles, further cementing Time Stranger‘s place within the wider Digimon Story universe.
