    Talos-II awaits. We’re going Back to Endfield.

    “Back to Endfield” isn’t just about exploration; it’s about mastering the integrated industrial system. Setting up power grids and production lines while fending off enemies is a serious level-up for the genre.

    The frontier of Talos-II is calling. It’s time to step back into the boots of the Endfield Industries Supervisor and reclaim the wild. The world-building, the real-time combat, and that signature Arknights aesthetic look better than ever in the “Back to Endfield” phase!

    Who else is ready to build, fight, and survive beyond the Band?

    ASTROBOTANICA science is your best survival tool!

    Tired of survival games that are all about combat? Meet ASTROBOTANICA, the upcoming “relaxed survival” adventure from the veterans behind Green Hell and Dying Light!

    In this gorgeous open-world journey, you aren’t a soldier—you’re Xel, an alien botanist who has crash-landed on Earth 300,000 years ago. Instead of just fighting to stay alive, you’ll use your scientific knowledge to thrive in the Pleistocene era.

    What makes this game a must-play?

    • Botanical Mastery: Research prehistoric plants and brew medicinal tonics to stay healthy.
    • First Contact: Meet and build relationships with early humans (Neanderthals!).
    • Alien Biology: Manage your unique needs, like keeping your CO2 levels stable in Earth’s oxygen-rich atmosphere.
    • Create Your Sanctuary: Build a base and cultivate a lush garden amidst the wild, ancient landscape.

    Whether you love deep crafting systems or just want to explore a beautiful, prehistoric world at your own pace, ASTROBOTANICA is blooming with potential.

    Early Access launches February 16, 2026!

    Which prehistoric creature or plant are you most excited to discover? Let us know in the comments!

  • Magic Forge Tycoon is officially OUT NOW on Steam!

    Magic Forge Tycoon is officially OUT NOW on Steam!

    Ever wanted to be the “shadow puppet master” of a fantasy world? Forget being the hero—become the ultimate magical arms dealer.

    • Forge legendary weapons with deep customisation.
    • Manipulate the market as kingdoms clash.
    • Choose: Will you fuel the flames of war for profit or forge a path to peace?

    Every hammer strike shapes the fate of Korendor. Are you ready to build your empire?

    Instead of just “making gold,” you’re actually managing the geopolitics of the world. I spent an hour trying to decide if I should supply the Elves to stabilise the border or sell “accidentally” low-durability maces to the Orcs to tank their economy.

  • REANIMAL – The masters of horror are back!

    REANIMAL – The masters of horror are back!

    The first look at REANIMAL is giving us absolute chills. Tarsier Studios is doubling down on that signature “disturbing-meets-beautiful” art style. This time, we follow a brother and sister on a quest to rescue their missing friends from a literal hellscape of mutated animals.

    It’s dark, it’s visceral, and it looks like it’s going to be a masterpiece of environmental storytelling.

    If you loved Little Nightmares, you need to put REANIMAL on your radar immediately. Developed by Tarsier Studios, this looks like their most unsettling journey yet.

    We’re trading the Maw for a fragmented island filled with terrifying, skin-crawling creatures. The best part? You can brave this nightmare in local or online co-op!
