    No Pay-to-Win, All Tank — Steel Aces Open Play Weekend Is LIVE!

    Commanders, start your engines! Independent developer Armative Studios has officially launched the Steel Aces Open Play Weekend — and this is no fleeting test run. For the first time ever, your progress stays with you permanently. Jump in, claim your name, and command history’s most legendary armoured vehicles — completely free.

    What Is Steel Aces?

    Steel Aces isn’t just another tank game — it’s built from the ground up on fairness, history, and skill:

    • 100% historically authentic — over 1,000 vehicles across 40+ nations, spanning from WWI to the modern era. No imaginary tanks, no “what-if” fantasy designs
    • No pay-to-win — ever — Collector vehicles are balanced equally with earnable ones. No loot boxes, no gambling, no shortcuts
    • Pure line-of-sight combat — artillery and aircraft are excluded. It’s tank vs tank, face-to-face, 15v15 tactical battles
    • Two eras, balanced separately — Ranks I–X (1916–1950) and Rank XI+ (1950–present) never mix, so late-war heavies don’t face Cold War tech
    • Fair matchmaking — paired with same-rank opponents; no random stomping
    • Co-op PvE included — team up against AI to learn the ropes before PvP

    Major Update Drops for Open Play

    The weekend brings a freshly tuned build:

    • Revised driving physics — smoother, more responsive handling
    • Rebalanced vision system — visibility and spotting refined for launch-ready balance
    • Tweaked gun dispersion & aiming stats — tighter, more consistent combat
    • Refined progression paths — vehicle unlocks and upgrades streamlined
    • All progress retained — tanks, ranks, and unlocks stay with your account

    Why It Matters

    “This isn’t another playtest — accounts are permanent. Play for real.” — Steel Aces Team

    Every vehicle you research, every battle you win, every crew you train — it all stays with you. Secure your preferred username now before it’s claimed, and get a genuine head start on the road to Early Access.

    Ready to Roll Out?

    Head to steelaces.com to register, download, and deploy. The servers are live — but not for long. Don’t let this weekend pass you by.

  • Quack to Victory — Duck Fest Shines with New English Trailer & Polished Demo!

    Quack to Victory — Duck Fest Shines with New English Trailer & Polished Demo!

    Duck season is here! Studio Shimazu has just unveiled a brand-new English trailer for Duck Fest — and alongside it, dropped a freshly polished free Steam demo with revamped visuals and gameplay tweaks shaped directly by player feedback.

    If you love card games but crave something charmingly fresh, hand-drawn, and easy to pick up yet tricky to master — this one’s for you.

    Watch the New English Trailer

    See the ducks in action for yourself — the new trailer lays out the rules, the art style, and the strategic hook in just a couple of minutes.

    What Is Duck Fest?

    Think your familiar deck of playing cards — reimagined as a delightful one-on-one battle game starring an adorable flock of hand-drawn ducks. Every single illustration is crafted solo by the developer, giving the game a warm, distinct personality all its own.

    Here’s how it works:

    • Two battle zones — the Water and the Shallows — where you place cards to fight for control of flags
    • Rank determines strength — higher-value cards beat the opposition, but every card also carries a unique special effect that can turn the tide
    • Strategy over luck — choose where to commit your ducks, when to hold back, and when to unleash game-changing abilities
    • Simple to learn, deep to master — built around standard playing-card foundations so anyone can jump in, with layers of tactical decision-making as you progress

    The Demo Got a Major Glow-Up

    The free Steam demo is now updated with:

    • Substantially refreshed visuals — cleaner, brighter, and even more charming duck artwork and UI
    • Playability improvements — smoother flow, tighter balancing, and quality-of-life fixes all based on what players told the team
    • Full opening story + tutorial — play solo first to learn the ropes
    • Online friend matches — take your deck against anyone on your Steam friends list

    Note: Card trading, community market integration, and full custom deck building are reserved for the complete game — but you can get a solid feel for the action right now, completely free.

    Why It Stands Out

    • Made with love — a solo developer passion project inspired by childhood TCG dreams
    • No steep entry barrier — uses playing-card values everyone already understands
    • Built on feedback — the demo update proves the team listens and iterates fast
    • Steam-connected — friend matches, trading, and market support planned for full release
    • Early Access coming — the game is expected to spend roughly one year in Early Access as it grows

    Ready to Flap Into Battle?

    Grab the free demo right now on Duck Fest Steam Store Page — try the story, learn the mechanics, and challenge a friend. The flock is waiting.

  • Night Falls on Core — TYRs First Urban & Nocturnal Map + 8-Player Squads Live Now!

    Night Falls on Core — TYRs First Urban & Nocturnal Map + 8-Player Squads Live Now!

    The battlefield has transformed. Stoke Games has unleashed a landmark update for TYR, their free-to-play tactical tank shooter in Early Access. Say hello to Core — the game’s first post-launch map, first urban environment, and first battle fought under the cover of night. And that’s not all: the team has also delivered the community’s most requested feature — permanent 8-player squads — live right now.

    Core — Three Firsts in One Battlefield

    Core isn’t just another map — it’s a bold step into uncharted territory:

    • First Urban Map — Dense streets, ruined buildings, and tight corners completely change how you fight. Long-range duels give way to close-quarters tactics and ambushes around every corner
    • First Night Battlefield — Visibility is drastically reduced. Shadows are your best friend — and your biggest danger. Adapt your loadout, use flares and sensors, and watch the dark like never before
    • First Post-Release Map — Built entirely from player feedback, proving the Early Access roadmap is delivering exactly what the community asked for

    Squads Just Got Bigger — 8-Player Teams Are Here

    For months, players have asked: bigger squads. Stoke Games has listened and delivered. What was once capped at 6–7 is now full-time 8-player squads, letting your entire crew deploy together without splitting up.

    • Keep your whole fireteam in one match
    • Coordinate more complex strategies across the expanded Core layout
    • Perfect for organised platoons and streamer groups alike

    About TYR

    Currently boasting 87% positive reviews on Steam, TYR is a tactical tank shooter where positioning, teamwork, and unique vehicle abilities win the day. Choose from a growing roster of tanks — each with its own armour profile, special tech (cloaking, sonar, drones), and upgrade tree. The recent Ranger tank release preceded this update, with more vehicles, maps, and features on the horizon.

    Ready to Roll Out?

    Core is live right now — free for all players. The night is dark, the city is waiting, and your full squad can finally roll together.

    Update downloaded? Squad assembled? Core calls — see you in the dark.

    Free to All — Starting October 1st

    From next month, Phobos Down will be available at zero cost across Steam and Itch.io. The developer confirmed the change in a heartfelt announcement, noting that while sales were modest, the game is ready to find its widest possible audience:

    “Starting from October 1st, you get to play Phobos Down completely free. No ads, no in-app payments, just the game.”

    • Steam — available now at a reduced price

    The sale runs through September 30th — after that, the game becomes free for everyone. You can also simply wishlist the game on your preferred platform and download it for free once October arrives.

    What Is Phobos Down?

    • Procedurally generated missions — every playthrough feels fresh and unpredictable
    • Customisable loadouts — tailor your weapons and gear to your playstyle
    • Weekly challenges + online leaderboards — compete with players worldwide
    • Play at your own pace — pause anytime, no relentless time pressure
    • ? Steam Deck optimised — perfect for portable play

    You step into the boots of a lone contractor sent to an uncharted planet to recover lost cargo — but the local wildlife has other ideas. It’s all about precision, movement, and that satisfying flow state only a well-tuned shooter can deliver.

    A Note from the Developer

    FRACTiLE Games shared the reasoning behind the shift: low sales meant maintaining commercial listing overheads wasn’t practical, but the game — and the developer — aren’t going anywhere.

    “I’m very thankful for the people who bought the game so far… I will not stop making games. Going forward, I’ll continue creating and releasing my work, often for free.”

  • SIEGE MODE ENGAGED: gamigo Brings ‘State of War’ Back to Relaunched MMORPG Gloria Victis!

    SIEGE MODE ENGAGED: gamigo Brings ‘State of War’ Back to Relaunched MMORPG Gloria Victis!

    Medieval MMORPG fans, grab your swords and shield walls—the battle for total territory control has just hit a whole new level.

    Publisher gamigo has officially brought back State of War, one of the most highly anticipated and community-requested features, to its recently relaunched free-to-play open-world title, Gloria Victis.

    If you’ve been looking for an MMORPG where your guild’s combat prowess and strategic coordination actually shape the world map, this update is exactly what you’ve been waiting for.

    What is State of War?

    At its core, Gloria Victis is built around high-stakes open-world PvP, territorial control, and massive medieval battles. However, State of War is where guild rivalries are truly settled.

    The feature introduces structured, high-intensity 30-minute battles designed specifically for guild-versus-guild warfare. Rivals are pitted against each other in all-out siege scenarios, where one side must attack and breach heavy fortifications while the other fights tooth and nail to defend their castle walls.

    Unlike spontaneous open-world skirmishes, State of War gives guilds a dedicated window to mobilise their forces, roll out siege engines, refine their defence strategies, and fight for ultimate dominance over crucial territories.

    Why the Gloria Victis Relaunch Matters

    Since taking the helm and relaunching Gloria Victis as a free-to-play experience, gamigo has been focused on refining its core loop: skill-based directional combat, player-driven economies, and grand-scale faction warfare.

    Bringing back State of War demonstrates a clear commitment to listening to the player base. Castle sieges have always been the beating heart of Gloria Victis, and reinstating this mechanics-driven guild war system provides end-game players with the purpose, competition, and adrenaline rush they’ve been craving.

    Key Highlights of the Update:

    • 30-Minute High-Stakes Battles: Fast-paced, focused siege windows that demand quick tactical decision-making.
    • Guild vs. Guild Focus: Prove your guild’s dominance on the server map by capturing or holding key strongholds.
    • True Medieval Warfare: Utilise siege weaponry, hold chokepoints, and master non-target, skill-based directional combat.
    • Free-to-Play Accessibility: With the game’s relaunch under gamigo, new and returning players can jump into the action without a paywall barrier.

    How to Join the Fight

    Whether you’re a veteran commander looking to rally your troops or a new player eager to experience raw, skill-based medieval combat, there has never been a better time to jump in. Gloria Victis is available to play for free today. Gather your guild, prepare your siege engines, and claim your legacy on the battlefield!

  • Gods, Titans, and Massive Overhauls: Legend of Edda: Pegasus Prepares for a Game-Changing Comeback

    Gods, Titans, and Massive Overhauls: Legend of Edda: Pegasus Prepares for a Game-Changing Comeback

    Indie studio IndigoWare has dropped a massive bombshell for classic MMORPG enthusiasts: Legend of Edda: Pegasus is officially making its comeback in the next few weeks. However, this isn’t just a simple server reboot or minor patch. The Greek mythology-inspired, free-to-play MMO is returning as a fundamentally different game.

    Thanks to an upgraded development toolkit, the team at IndigoWare now has complete freedom to modify, edit, and expand the game at every level. Systems, mechanics, and quality-of-life updates that were once completely off the table are now front and centre.

    Here is everything you need to know about the upcoming relaunch of Legend of Edda: Pegasus, what’s already implemented, and what fans can look forward to.

    Merging Worlds: Crowned Sun Meets Edda

    One of the biggest announcements accompanying the relaunch is the integration of Crowned Sun. IndigoWare is merging Crowned Sun directly into Legend of Edda: Pegasus, bringing all of its existing content into a single, unified world.

    Players can expect a massive influx of content, ranging from new playable races to expanded maps, dungeons, and monsters.

    What’s Already Built Into the Relaunch

    The developers haven’t just promised future updates—they have already packed the relaunch build with a robust suite of new content, UI enhancements, and structural overhauls:

    1. Expanded World & End-Game Content

    • New Maps: Explore Mirage Citadel, Nereidia Village, and Calypso Coast.
    • New Dungeons & Challenges: Dive into the Gates of Erebus dungeon or test your endurance in the Tower of Sisyphus—an endless tower designed to push your builds to their absolute limits.
    • Expanded Roster: The complete monster, mount, and pet catalogue from Crowned Sun is now fully ported over.

    2. Deep Quality-of-Life (QoL) Enhancements

    • Dedicated Inventory Windows: No more cluttered bag spaces. Separate shortcuts now exist for the Wardrobe System (costumes) and your Mount Collection.
    • On-Demand Dungeon Menu: Access the dungeon window at any time with a quick tap of the shortcut key (N).
    • Codex System: Track your achievements, lore, and collectables seamlessly.
    • Streamlined Access: Integrated social logins and a native “Remember Me” function on the login screen.

    3. Visuals, Character Creation, & Balance

    • Racial Expansion: Play as Humans, Dryopes, Chthonic, or Kabeiroi.
    • Character Customisation: Fresh skin tones, multiple new hairstyles, and a modernised main UI with a video background on the login menu.
    • Smart Bot Integration: To keep the iconic faction wars balanced, AI bots will now fill out understaffed Sacred Wars. Bots can also be recruited to fill open slots in party-based dungeons.
    • Battle Pass: A native Battle Pass system has been integrated into the core progression loop.

    The Horizon: Controller Support, Mobile, & Cosmetic-Only Shops

    IndigoWare’s roadmap doesn’t end with the relaunch. The studio has teased a steady stream of features planned shortly after release, including:

    • Native Controller Support: Seamless play on gamepad setups.
    • Mobile Client: Play and progress on the go.
    • Cosmetic-Only Item Mall: Ensuring a fair, non-pay-to-win (P2W) environment focused purely on cosmetics and style.
    • New Raid Bosses: Epic group encounters designed for high-tier endgame gear progression.

    How to Get Ready

    The war between the Olympians and Titans is about to reignite, and whether you’re defending Mount Olympus or taking up arms with the Titans, the battlefield is going to look completely different this time around.

    Players looking to jump into the relaunch can follow the official development updates via the newly launched website at legendofedda.gg or join the active player community on their official Discord server.

    Tenno, crank the volume and check your radio scanners—a major signal glitch just hijacked the airwaves! Digital Extremes has officially dropped Nightwave Mix: Amir’s Shockwave, bringing a wild, 1999-themed takeover to Warframe’s free rewards track across all platforms.

    Whether you’re looking to gear up with limited-time cosmetics, dive into a brand-new tabletop-inspired text adventure, or jam out to fresh beats from 1999’s favourite boyband, there’s plenty of high-voltage content waiting for you today.

    Electrify Your Fashion with Free Rewards Track Gear

    Taking over the airwaves this season is none other than Amir Beckett (Volt of The Hex), voiced by Kevin Afghani (Super Mario Bros. Wonder). As with previous Nightwave rotations, Amir’s Shockwave offers a completely free rewards track accessible right from your Orbiter’s Navigation console or radio scanner.

    By taking on Daily, Weekly, and Permanent Weekly objectives, you’ll earn progress toward limited-time loot, including:

    • Kaneshell Atomicycle Regalia (for Operator and Drifter)
    • Globakk Syandana backpiece
    • Exclusive 1999-themed cosmetics, gear, and utility items

    Note: These rewards will rotate out when the next Nightwave season arrives, so grab them while the broadcast is still live!

    It’s not just a temporary signal—this update also introduces exciting permanent features to the Origin System!
