  • DREAMS, DIMENSIONS, AND DISCOVERY — LOST TWINS 2 ARRIVES ON EPIC GAMES STORE FOR PC

    DREAMS, DIMENSIONS, AND DISCOVERY — LOST TWINS 2 ARRIVES ON EPIC GAMES STORE FOR PC

    Where logic bends and gravity is just a suggestion, two siblings are lost — and it’s your job to guide them home. Playdew has today announced that Lost Twins 2, the follow-up to its warmly received, critically praised surreal puzzler, is now available on the Epic Games Store for PC, priced at $14.99.

    A dreamlike journey of separation, clever puzzles, and quiet wonder has opened its doors to a whole new audience.

    THE WORLD ITSELF IS YOUR PUZZLE

    In Lost Twins 2, you don’t just solve puzzles inside a world — you move the world itself.

    You play as Abi and Ben, twin siblings adrift in a mesmerising, shifting realm where nothing stays fixed for long. Paths vanish, platforms slide, and perspective holds the key to progress. It’s a place where:

    • You rearrange landscapes to build bridges, open passages, and create safe ground
    • Every level rewards curiosity and observation rather than fast reflexes
    • There are no enemies to fight, no timers to beat — just a calm, beautiful space to explore at your own pace
    • You can play entirely solo, or team up with a friend in local co-op to share the journey

    THREE WORLDS, THIRTY-THREE DREAMS

    The adventure spans 3 distinct, handcrafted worlds across 33 levels, each introducing fresh mechanics and increasingly intricate twists on reality. As you guide the twins toward reunion, you’ll encounter:

    • Gravity-defying architecture that tilts and shifts at your touch
    • Hidden paths and secret areas waiting for attentive eyes
    • A gentle, atmospheric original score that breathes life into every corner
    • A visual style that feels like stepping inside a living storybook

    It’s a design philosophy that has won the game wide praise: accessible enough for younger players and newcomers, yet rich and clever enough to satisfy seasoned puzzle fans.

    A JOURNEY GROWS — FROM CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED ORIGINAL TO EPIC DEBUT

    The original Lost Twins charmed players and reviewers alike with its gentle ingenuity. This sequel expands on every front — deeper mechanics, richer visuals, and a longer, more varied adventure. Now, landing on the Epic Games Store, it reaches millions more PC players worldwide.

    Lost Twins 2 is available right now via the Epic Games Store for $14.99, with support for multiple languages and a welcoming experience that suits every age and skill level.

    The twins are waiting. The world is ready to be moved. All you need to do is step through.

    Reality is flexible. Imagination is the only map you need.

  • BUILD THE FUTURE TOGETHER — STAR SEED BLOSSOMS IN WARPED UNIVERSE’S MASSIVE NEW COMMUNITY EVENT

    BUILD THE FUTURE TOGETHER — STAR SEED BLOSSOMS IN WARPED UNIVERSE’S MASSIVE NEW COMMUNITY EVENT

    It’s rare to fire a gun and feel like you’re laying a foundation. But in Warped Universe, every shot, every extraction, every hard-fought defence doesn’t just level your gear — it builds something everyone gets to stand inside.

    Warped Games has officially launched Star Seed, the first major community-driven event for its free-to-play sci-fi PvE looter shooter — and it’s turning every player into a cosmic architect. Whether you lean into fast-paced gunplay like Helldivers 2 and Destiny 2, prefer deep tactical planning a la XCOM, love the endless progression loops of Warframe, or crave the open cosmos of Everspace, Star Seed has been built to meet you exactly how you play.

    One Seed, Infinite Hands — How Star Seed Works

    At the heart of the event lies the Oracle’s Star Seed: a grand, shared project that players construct together, piece by piece, across every mission they run. Structure, habitats, food stores, ship systems, fuel reserves, engines, space lanes, Residuum stockpiles, defensive networks — every component is unlocked and strengthened through collective effort.

    This isn’t just a progress bar that ticks up in the background. Each player’s choices feed into the same living galaxy:

    • Run real-time action missions — contribute to expansion and defence
    • Switch to turn-based tactics — your careful planning still counts toward the same goals
    • Play solo or squad up with 3 friends — solo runs move the needle just as surely as coordinated fireteams
    • Complete objectives, extract Residuum, activate facilities — every action grows the Star Seed and unlocks benefits for the entire player base

    When a sector opens, everyone gets access. When a defence holds, everyone reaps the rewards. The more the community achieves, the more of the universe unfolds — and the more formidable the Void becomes in response.

    A Universe Reforged — Visuals, Audio, and Foes Renewed

    Star Seed isn’t just about what you build — it’s about the world you build it in. The update arrives stacked with sweeping improvements:

    • A sharper, more painterly universe — the signature Warped visual filter has been overhauled, delivering crisper definition and richer atmosphere at every resolution and upscale setting
    • Sound that hits harder — a full audio mix pass puts weapons and explosions front and centre, clarifies the eerie signals of the Void, and gives space battles thundering engines and roaring flybys. Every planet now carries its own distinct ambience — all crafted in-house
    • Enemies evolve — the Sniper Void has a menacing new look, while the Enrager emerges with a demonic redesign and a bone-chilling voice to match. Golden Residuum now appears during timed ground events, offering high-stakes opportunities for those bold enough to grab it
    • Stability and polish — co-op objective bugs, falling-through-floor glitches, crash triggers, and status-effect issues have all been addressed, alongside performance boosts on Sanctuary

    For Every Kind of Spacefarer — Where It Fits Your Favourites

    What makes Warped Universe stand out from the sci-fi shooter crowd is that it never forces you to pick a lane. Star Seed leans right into that strength:

    If you love…You’ll find…
    Helldivers 2Co-op chaos, shared galactic goals, and the thrill of defending vital installations against overwhelming odds
    Destiny 2Shared-world progression, meaningful loot, and a universe that shifts as players conquer it
    WarframeDeep customisation of your Echo frame, endless replayability, and rewards that keep pulling you back
    EverspaceStunning cosmic backdrops, immersive flight, and a sense of venturing into the truly unknown
    XCOMFull turn-based tactical mode — plan every move, position your squad, and outthink the threat rather than outgun it

    Same universe. Same Star Seed. Your way.

    The Void Waits — Join the Effort Now

    Star Seed is live right now, free for all players on Steam and Epic Games Store. No paywalls, no entry fees — just jump in, pick your playstyle, and start building. The Oracle’s Star Seed rises or falls on collective effort: every mission finished, every sector secured, every defence held brings new possibilities into view.

    The developers have made clear this is only the beginning — built on the back of five major patches in the game’s first month and direct, ongoing dialogue with players via Discord and Steam forums. The Star Seed is yours to nurture — and the galaxy beyond it is waiting to be born.

    The cosmos doesn’t build itself. Grab your weapon — and your blueprints — and let’s get to work.

  • TRUTH IS A DISEASE — PSYCHO-SLEUTH UNLEASHES COGNITIVE HORROR MURDER MYSTERY TODAY

    TRUTH IS A DISEASE — PSYCHO-SLEUTH UNLEASHES COGNITIVE HORROR MURDER MYSTERY TODAY

    Imagine a world where the evidence vanishes if you look left. Where every face is a stranger’s. Where nobody can tell a lie — and that makes everything more dangerous. Today, developer PHOSEPO alongside publishers Thermite Games and Smilegate STOVE releases Psycho-Sleuth — a psychological mystery where the rules of reality itself are the killer’s weapon — on PC via Steam, STOVE, and Epic Games Store.

    This isn’t just another whodunit. It’s a game where the very way you see, hear, and understand the world is twisted, broken, and infected — and only your wits can stitch it back together.

    THE TRIAL OF THE AFFLICTED

    A cult calling itself Li has seized control of reality. Their edict is unflinching: commit murder without being unmasked, and you shall ascend to godhood. Thirteen “Afflicted Ones” are gathered — each carrying a rare, potent cognitive disorder that doesn’t just affect them — it spreads, warping perception, rewriting testimony, and erasing facts from the world itself.

    These aren’t just flavour text — they are the mechanics of murder:

    • OCD / Absolute Truth — No one in this room can lie. Every statement is fact. And yet, someone is still dead. How?
    • Spatial Neglect — The entire left half of existence ceases to register. Clues vanish in plain sight; bodies are halved; rooms are incomplete.
    • Prosopagnosia — Faces dissolve into blurs. You can’t recognise your allies — or identify the killer.
    • Alien Limb Syndrome — A hand moves of its own accord. Did the victim strike the blow themselves? Or was it guided?

    Each disorder doesn’t just flavour the story — it reshapes the investigation. The killer wields these distortions actively, manipulating what you see and how you interact with the scene. The crime scene is never what it appears — and neither is the truth.

    DEBATE MODE — REASON AGAINST MADNESS

    When testimony warps and facts dissolve, you enter Debate Mode — the game’s pulse-quickening interrogation system. Here, you weigh every statement, spot the fractures in perception, and strike back with evidence that cuts through the fog. It’s not just about finding contradictions — it’s about understanding how someone’s mind is broken so you can find the truth beneath the distortion.

    The game pushes beyond standard visual-novel fare: distortions can affect your controls, your interface, and your understanding of the timeline. You aren’t just solving a puzzle — you’re fighting a psychological infection in real time.

    A WORLD BREATHING MADNESS

    Psycho-Sleuth delivers a staggering volume of crafted narrative:

    • 500,000+ characters of branching script
    • Full voice acting across key scenes
    • 40+ high-quality CGs and dozens of 3D environments
    • Live2D animations that let you read the flicker of fear, defiance, or deceit in every portrait
    • 50+ original music tracks scoring the descent into chaos

    Every character is fully realised, with their own motives, fears, and unique “Afflicted Power” — and their punishment, when judgement falls, is shaped by their own disorder. No two runs are identical; choices ripple through the cast, and multiple endings await — some revealing truths darker than the lies you started with.

    AVAILABLE NOW — WHERE TO PLAY

    Psycho-Sleuth is out today, 5 November 2026, across three major PC platforms:

    • Steam — https://store.steampowered.com/app/3432860/PsychoSleuth/
    • STOVE — store.onstove.com/en
    • Epic Games Store

    The game launches fully localised in English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean, with full controller support and accessibility options including adjustable difficulty, custom volume controls, and subtitle options.

    System requirements are welcoming — Intel Core i3 / GT 1030 minimum — meaning nearly any modern gaming PC can step into the distortion.

    FINAL THOUGHTS

    Psycho-Sleuth doesn’t just ask “who did it?” — it asks “can you even trust the question?” By weaving real cognitive conditions into core gameplay, PHOSEPO and team have crafted something genuinely singular: a mystery that attacks your perception as well as your logic. It’s tense, it’s unsettling, and it’s deeply, thrillingly clever.

    If you’ve ever wanted a detective story where the hardest clue is believing your own eyes — this is your game.

    The truth is contagious. Don’t catch the wrong one.

  • Shape Minds, Rule the Stars — Stellaris: Willpower Expansion Launches November 23

    Shape Minds, Rule the Stars — Stellaris: Willpower Expansion Launches November 23

    Borders define territory. Ideas define empires. Paradox Interactive and co-developer Abrakam have today unveiled Willpower, the next major expansion for their landmark sci-fi grand strategy game Stellaris — and it’s arriving sooner than you think. Launching Monday 23rd November 2026 on PC, this game-changing pack turns your empire’s deepest beliefs into your most powerful weapon: spread your values across the galaxy, reshape civilisations from within, and lead not just through conquest, but through conviction.

    What Is Willpower? — Belief as a Galactic Force

    Every empire in Stellaris is built on Ethics — the core principles that guide your society. Willpower elevates those convictions into living, breathing Ideologies — movements with the power to cross borders, sway foreign populations, and destabilise rival empires without firing a single shot.

    Here’s what awaits:

    Build Your Ideology

    • Evolve your core Ethics into a formal Ideology with unique Tenets and strengths
    • Spread your influence via Starbases, Hyper Relays, and Ideological Beacons that project your values deep into neighbouring space
    • Watch as foreign worlds adopt your beliefs, spawning Fanatic Factions that campaign for alignment with your empire — from the inside out
    • Maintain Momentum — stray too far from your own Tenets, and disillusionment may turn your own population against you

    Monuments to Your Values

    • Deploy the Galactic Hall — a mobile orbital megastructure that amplifies your ideological influence across entire star systems
    • Customise modules to boost production, spread propaganda, or reinforce loyalty
    • Construct Cathedrals and other grand monuments to cement your legacy on colony surfaces

    New Paths, New Beginnings

    • Three new Origins to launch your campaign:
      • Golden Generation — raise leaders in a dedicated academy, nurturing talent from youth to greatness
      • Lost Makers — a machine intelligence seeking the long-forgotten creators who built you
      • Great Mosaic — begin with an extra Civic, a society woven from diverse threads
    • Five new Fanatic Civics to sharpen your society’s identity
    • New Force of Will Ambition — pursue galactic supremacy through influence rather than warfare
    • Over 40 Ideology events and 8 ideologically aligned Paragons to recruit

    Price & Availability

    Willpower is the second major release in Season 10, following the earlier Nomads expansion. You can grab it in two ways:

    Season 10 Expansion PassWillpower is included — no extra purchase needed
    Standalone Pre-OrderAvailable now — £20.99 / $24.99 / €24.99
    Release Date23 November 2026 — PC (Steam, Paradox Store, Epic)

    Pre-purchasers get immediate confirmation, with all content unlocking on launch day alongside the free Corona Borealis (v4.6) game update.

    Why It Matters — A New Way to Conquer

    For nearly a decade, Stellaris has let players explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate. Willpower adds a fifth, subtler path: persuasion. You can still conquer every system — but now, you can also wait for worlds to join you of their own accord. It’s grand strategy reimagined: influence is the new border, and loyalty is the ultimate resource.

    Of course, ideas can also tear empires apart. Let your Ideology radicalise unchecked, and those same Fanatic Factions could turn on you. Stay true to your values, and the galaxy might just follow.

    Pre-orders are live right now — secure your copy today and be ready to lead when the stars align on November 23rd.

  • Shred, Upgrade, Uncover — Paper Shredder Tears Through ID@Xbox Showcase, Winter Release Confirmed

    Shred, Upgrade, Uncover — Paper Shredder Tears Through ID@Xbox Showcase, Winter Release Confirmed

    Ever stared at a mountain of paperwork and wondered what would happen if you just… destroyed it? Independent studio Embers turned that satisfying daydream into a game — and today during the latest ID@Xbox Showcase, they confirmed their highly anticipated incremental title Paper Shredder is coming this Winter 2026 to Xbox Series X|S, Xbox for PC, Steam, and the Epic Games Store.

    The Deal — Shred Your Way to a Million

    You’ve accepted an offer too good to refuse: lock yourself away and eliminate every last sheet of confidential company documentation, and you walk away with $1,000,000. Start with nothing but your bare hands and a humble entry-level shredder — one sheet at a time — and watch that small, repetitive action explode into an industrial-scale operation.

    This isn’t mindless busywork, though — every pile hides something. As you chew through towering stacks of files, you’ll unlock new rooms, reveal hidden company machinery, and peel back layers of corporate secrets buried deep beneath the paper.

    Gameplay — From Chore to Catharsis

    Paper Shredder takes the incremental genre and wraps it in a deceptively simple premise that evolves dramatically:

    • Start small — feed individual sheets, sweep scraps, and earn merit points to spend on better gear
    • Upgrade everything — faster shredders, automated feeders, industrial brooms, and processing machinery turn slow drudgery into satisfying, chain-reaction destruction
    • Meet the Happiness Manager — your perpetually cheerful, ever-watchful overseer whose positivity feels increasingly menacing as the hours pile up
    • Dig deeper — what exactly is in these files? Why does the company want them gone? Progress reveals narrative threads, new areas, and darker truths about the operation
    • Scale up — solo effort becomes a facility-spanning production line; satisfaction grows alongside your efficiency

    From Cult Wishlist to Multi-Platform Launch

    Paper Shredder has already caught fire on Steam, climbing to become one of the platform’s most wishlisted upcoming indie releases — a phenomenon that even caught the team by surprise. Now, with the ID@Xbox reveal, Embers is bringing the experience to a far wider audience:

    PlatformRelease Window
    Xbox Series XS
    Xbox for PCWinter 2026
    Steam (PC)Winter 2026
    Epic Games StoreWinter 2026

    Cross-buy and Xbox Play Anywhere support ensures your progress travels between console and PC seamlessly.

    Why It Stands Out

    Incremental games often fall into the same familiar loops — Paper Shredder distinguishes itself by wrapping its systems in atmosphere, mystery, and a sharp undercurrent of satire. The Happiness Manager’s bright encouragement contrasts beautifully with the growing realisation that you’re destroying evidence. It’s satisfying, addictive, and quietly unsettling — a rare combination that sticks with you long after you’ve closed the game.

    Wishlist Now

    The Steam and Epic Games Store pages are live — add Paper Shredder to your wishlist today to catch development updates, countdown to launch, and be first in line when the shredding begins. This Winter, don’t just clear your desk — erase it from existence.

  • Beat the Devil at His Own Game — The Killing Stone Hits 1.0 Oct 21, Expands to Consoles & Epic Games Store

    Beat the Devil at His Own Game — The Killing Stone Hits 1.0 Oct 21, Expands to Consoles & Epic Games Store

    The wait is nearly over — and the Devil’s days are numbered. Independent studio Question, the acclaimed creators behind The Blackout Club and The Magic Circle, have announced that their atmospheric occult horror deckbuilder The Killing Stone will officially leave Early Access and launch as version 1.0 on October 21, arriving simultaneously on Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

    From Early Access to the Full Reckoning

    First released in Early Access back in February, The Killing Stone has grown and evolved alongside its passionate community of players. The team at Question spent these months refining every aspect of the experience — balancing card decks, expanding optional questlines, smoothing out the bargaining mechanics, and layering in even more narrative depth based on direct player feedback.

    The big news with 1.0? Chapter Four: The Reckoning — the climactic, concluding chapter that ties together every choice, bargain, and deck you’ve built across the first three acts. Now you’ll face the ultimate test: taking everything you’ve learned and crafted to outwit the Devil himself and lift the ancient curse haunting the Svangård family.

    A Bargain You Won’t Want to Miss

    The Killing Stone casts you as a Maven — a master of the dark arts — negotiating with demons for the souls of a cursed 17th-century clan. It blends rich, first-person exploration of a remote Arctic mansion with tense, tactical card battles on a living ceremonial board. Key highlights include:

    • A novel Reserve System that lets you stack units and spells for strategic deployment
    • Dual-language storytelling — play in period-perfect 17th-century English or modern prose
    • Star-studded voice talent including Emma Gregory (Baldur’s Gate 3) and Liam O’Brien (Critical Role)
    • Multiple endings shaped by your choices — no two playthroughs unfold the same way
    • Hand-painted visuals and haunting soundscapes that wrap you in the era’s eerie beauty

    Everywhere You Want to Play

    October 21 marks the full release across the board:

    • Steam — 1.0 launch, concluding the Early Access journey
    • Epic Games Store — brand-new PC arrival
    • PlayStation 5 & Xbox Series X|S — native console editions launching alongside the PC 1.0 release

    Priced at $19.99, the full release also includes all the polish, balance, and extra content shaped by months of community input. As narrative director Jordan Thomas puts it: “Our intrepid Early Access community asked for more devious cards, a richer story, and choices that truly matter — and we’ve worked to make their dark wishes come true.”

    The Reckoning draws near. Will you cleanse the Svangård name… or lose your soul in the bargain? Wishlist now so you don’t miss the showdown.

Every file is a memory; every puzzle is a reminder of the life they built side by side.

    MyDear.exe calls itself a “Foldervania” — blending non-linear exploration with a nostalgic Windows XP-style interface.

  • Lost Between Realities: Why You Need to Wishlist Uncanyon Right Now

    Lost Between Realities: Why You Need to Wishlist Uncanyon Right Now

    Gamers, take note: a brand-new adventure is looming on the horizon, promising to blur the lines between dimensions, history, and survival. Coming to the Epic Games Store in 2027, Uncanyon invites players to step into a mysterious, forgotten realm tucked directly into the seam between parallel realities.

    If you are a fan of immersive world-building, high-stakes exploration, and uncovering ancient mysteries, Uncanyon is poised to be one of the most intriguing titles of 2027.

    What is Uncanyon?

    Uncanyon was once an abundant world—a vibrant hub teeming with life and resources. However, squeezed into the liminal space where divergent dimensions collide, it has succumbed to isolation and memory loss, slipping through the cracks of existence to become a legendary, “forgotten” world.

    As players step into this unstable, multi-dimensional realm, they will have to navigate shifting environments where the rules of reality aren’t always set in stone. The core gameplay challenges players to explore fractured landscapes, untangle the secrets of its sudden downfall, and survive the unpredictable hazards born from the tear in space-time.

    Key Highlights to Look Forward To:

    • A Reality-Bending World: Explore environments created by the convergence of unparallel realities, offering surreal vistas, unexpected anomalies, and dynamic hazards.
    • Rich Lore & Ancient Secrets: Piece together the history of a once-thriving civilisation and discover what caused Uncanyon to be cast into the void.
    • Atmospheric Survival & Exploration: Adapt to an ever-evolving world where every seam in reality holds both immense danger and hidden wealth.

    Wishlist Today!

    While the launch is slated for 2027, you don’t have to wait to show your support. Heading over to the Epic Games Store and adding Uncanyon to your wishlist now is the best way to keep up with developer updates, teaser trailers, and early access announcements.

    Will you be the one to stitch reality back together, or will you become just another lost secret of the seam?
