    Make Your Own Hit — MR. RECORDS Demo Drops Music Level Editor for Steam Next Fest

    Your music. Your beats. Your world. Wired Productions and Glee-Cheese Studio have cranked the volume all the way up for MR. RECORDS this Steam Next Fest, releasing a major demo update that gives players the power to build, customise, and play their very own rhythm levels — from scratch.

    It’s not just about playing the records anymore — now you get to make them.

    What Is MR. RECORDS?

    MR. RECORDS is a heartfelt rhythm-adventure about George, a man who finally chases his lifelong dream of opening his very own record shop. Every album he spins transforms into a fully playable journey — surreal dream worlds where you run, jump, slide, and dodge in perfect sync with the music. The game weaves together original styles — funk, rock, hip-hop, electro, world music, 80s pop — with a tender story about memory, regret, connection, and the redemptive power of music.

    Now You’re in Control — The Music Level Editor

    The big news: the Music Level Editor is live right now in the updated Steam demo. Here’s what you can do:

    • Build from the Beat Up — Place notes, obstacles, and effects along a music timeline, then jump straight in and play your creation
    • Style Everything — Customise colours, animations, backgrounds, and visual assets to match the vibe
    • Your Tracks, Your Tempo — On PC, import your own music, and the editor generates gameplay synced to every beat
    • Share the Vibe — Send your custom levels to friends or the wider community, and play what others have made
    • Coming to All Platforms — The editor will be included in every version of the full game: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. Note: custom music import and sharing are PC-only

    How It Fits Into the Game

    The editor isn’t just a side mode — it’s an extension of MR. RECORDS’ entire philosophy: music is personal, and everyone has a story to tell. Whether you want to craft a precision challenge, a dreamy visual journey, or just turn your favourite track into something you can run through, the tools are there. Build something gentle and melodic, something fast and chaotic — or anything in between.

    What’s in the Demo?

    The updated Steam Next Fest demo includes:

    • The full original opening sequence and handcrafted levels
    • The complete Music Level Editor suite
    • Access to community-shared levels
    • A taste of George’s shop, his story, and the 7+ original musical journeys in the base game

  • Shhh — Keep Your Bills Shut & Your Flock Close! QUIET Drops First Demo Oct 22 After Massive Global Playtest

    Shhh — Keep Your Bills Shut & Your Flock Close! QUIET Drops First Demo Oct 22 After Massive Global Playtest

    Silence is survival — and your very life depends on it. QUIET, the uproariously tense 1–4 player co-op horror-comedy from LINE Games, is preparing to make some noise of its own: its first-ever public demo lands October 22, fresh off a wildly successful playtest that drew 270,000+ players across 148 countries.

    The game will also feature at The MIX Fall Showcase and take part in Screamfest (Oct 26 – Nov 2), putting its unique sound-is-everything gameplay front and centre for horror fans worldwide.

    What Is QUIET? Don’t Make a Sound…

    You and your flock are alien ducks — yes, alien ducks — who’ve crash-landed on Earth. Your ship is busted, and the spare parts you need are inside a seemingly ordinary house. The problem? The homeowner is anything but ordinary — and she hears everything.

    QUIET is built on one brutal rule: every sound matters. Sprint too fast, knock over a lamp, fumble an item — or even breathe too loudly into your microphone — and you’ll give away your position. Move quietly, work together, and slip out unseen; make a racket, and she’ll come for you.

    From Strength to Strength: The Playtest Phenomenon

    The game’s earlier limited playtest exploded far beyond expectations, with players from Norwich to New Zealand sneaking, scrambling, and squawking their way through the dark. That massive global turnout proved one thing: the world is ready for a co-op horror that’s equal parts heart-pounding tension and feather-ruffling fun. LINE Games has been poring over every piece of feedback, refining mechanics, and smoothing the stealth to make the demo the best possible introduction.

    What to Expect in the Demo

    • Sound = Survival — Your footsteps, your fumbles, and even your real-world voice chat can trigger detection. Silence isn’t just golden — it’s your only defence.
    • Solo or Flock — Go it alone or sneak in as a squad of up to four. Co-ordination is key; one clumsy quack can spell doom for everyone.
    • Procedurally Spooked — No two runs feel the same, with shifting layouts and hazards keeping even seasoned players on edge.
    • Horror Meets Hijinks — The tone balances genuine dread with slapstick charm. One moment you’re holding your breath in pitch blackness; the next, you’re accidentally sending a stack of teacups crashing to the floor.

    Showcase Season: Two Big Stages

    The excitement ramps up fast:

    • The MIX Fall Showcase — QUIET takes the spotlight alongside some of indie gaming’s most promising titles.
    • Screamfest (Oct 26 – Nov 2) — Right on the heels of the demo launch, QUIET joins the premier horror gaming event, letting players and streamers show how well they really keep quiet under pressure.

  • In Space, No One Can Hear You Clean — Cleaner Company Blasts Off Jan 28, 2027

    In Space, No One Can Hear You Clean — Cleaner Company Blasts Off Jan 28, 2027

    Grab your hazmat suit, prime your cosmic vacuum, and double-check your mop — the galaxy’s messiest jobs are about to become your responsibility. Cleaner Company, the gory, gleeful sci-fi horror co-op cleaning sim from developer Wildflame Studio and publisher Mythwright, has locked in its full launch date: January 28th, 2027, landing simultaneously on Steam and the Epic Games Store.

    What on Earth — or in Space — Is Cleaner Company?

    You join the Star Wipers, the newest recruits of the galaxy’s premier orbital maintenance firm. Your mission: scrub down abandoned space stations, sanitise infested alien outposts, and restore the Flying Canteen — a once-beloved interstellar restaurant — to its former glory. The catch? Your predecessors didn’t just leave a few crumbs behind. Corpses, gore, alien spores, and uninvited parasitic lifeforms litter every surface.

    This isn’t your average chores list. Cleaner Company blends the satisfying, rhythmic flow of cleaning sims with unpredictable hazards: gravity shifts, blackouts, hostile creatures, and the chaotic energy of up to 3 friends joining you online. Roles are yours to assign — someone handles the buckets, someone mans the power washer — or you can just run amok together. The game scales for solo players too, so you can tackle the mess at your own pace.

    Clean, Cooperate — or Chaos?

    Cleaner Company is designed to be as calm or as chaotic as you want it. There’s a peaceful mode that strips away monsters entirely, leaving just the zen of scrubbing stains and polishing surfaces. If you prefer thrills, you’ll face skittering horrors and tense encounters alongside your mop work. Either way, you’ll uncover a lingering corporate mystery as you climb the ranks — why did the previous crews vanish?

    The game wears its inspirations proudly: Viscera Cleanup Detail, PowerWash Simulator, Lethal Company, and PEAK are all cited as kindred spirits. Expect tactile, physics?driven cleaning, increasingly elaborate disaster zones, and moments that swing from genuinely eerie to laugh?out?loud slapstick.

    Try Before You Blast Off

    A free playable demo is available right now on Steam as part of Steam Next Fest. It lets you tackle the Flying Canteen and — if you finish the job — nets you that exclusive top hat for your full?game launch.

    System Requirements

    • Minimum: Windows 10, Intel i5 (8th gen), GTX 1660, 8 GB RAM, 12 GB storage
    • Recommended: Windows 11, Intel i5 (10th gen), RTX 3060, 16 GB RAM, 12 GB storage

    Ready to Launch?

    Cleaner Company looks to carve out its own gleefully grotesque niche: part comfort sim, part creature feature, part co?op comedy. Whether you’re here for the satisfying scrubbing, the alien encounters, or just to mess around with friends in zero?gravity, January 28th can’t come soon enough.

  • Bend Time, Save the City — DESOLUS Arrives Across All Major Platforms!

    Bend Time, Save the City — DESOLUS Arrives Across All Major Platforms!

    Step into a city torn between a glorious past and a crumbling future — and rewrite its fate. Today marks the official launch of DESOLUS, the spellbinding first-person puzzle adventure from veteran creator Mark J. Mayers (known for his work on Outer Wilds and Manifold Garden) and publisher The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild, available now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam and Xbox.

    A City Suspended Between Then and Now

    DESOLUS invites you to explore a haunting, beautifully realised Gothic metropolis fractured by a cataclysm that threatens to unravel reality itself. Your mission: mend what has been broken, piece by piece, by stepping through portals that let you shift between the city’s vibrant past and its desolate future.

    This isn’t just simple time travel — you’ll use portals and black-hole mechanics to move architecture, swap structures across timelines, and solve mind-bending puzzles inspired by the impossible, mind-bending art of M.C. Escher. Bridges, towers, and pathways exist in one era but not the other — your job is to connect them, restore order, and prevent the collapse that would erase the city entirely.

    Crafted by a Master of Space & Mind

    DESOLUS has been a labour of love more than a decade in the making — a personal project Mayers nurtured alongside his work on some of the most celebrated puzzle and exploration games of the last generation. That pedigree shines through: expect the same thoughtful design, striking atmosphere, and puzzles that reward patience and perception over reflexes.

    With an original piano-driven soundtrack by Kyle Landry and a visual style that feels both timeless and utterly unique, DESOLUS is built to pull you in and keep you thinking long after you step away.

    Ready to Be the Salvation?

    The city waits for its harbinger — and that’s you. Whether you’re playing on console or PC, you can dive in right now and start stitching reality back together.

    • Xbox Series X|S — available now
    • PlayStation 5 — available now
    • Nintendo Switch 2 — available now
    • PC — via Steam and Xbox Store

    If you love puzzles that twist your brain and worlds that stir your soul, DESOLUS belongs on your playlist.

  • Ancient Spirits Awaken — The End of the Sun Sets Xbox Launch Date: November 4, 2026

    Ancient Spirits Awaken — The End of the Sun Sets Xbox Launch Date: November 4, 2026

    Step into a world where every sunrise holds more than warmth — it carries ancient whispers, lingering traditions, and forces beyond what the eye can see. Publisher IMGN.PRO and developer The End of the Sun Forge have officially revealed that atmospheric narrative adventure The End of the Sun will arrive on Xbox Series X|S on 4 November 2026.

    The newly released Xbox announcement trailer pulls back the curtain on a realm where quiet, everyday village life weaves seamlessly with age-old beliefs and eerie, unforgettable supernatural events — painting a picture of a land steeped in folklore where nothing is quite as it seems.

    Where Tradition Meets the Unexplained

    In The End of the Sun, you won’t just explore a setting — you’ll live it. Wander through close-knit communities where old customs are still honoured, listen to stories passed down through generations, and uncover the truth behind strange occurrences that defy all logic. The game blends heartfelt human stories with mystical, haunting encounters, creating an experience that feels both deeply grounded and wonderfully mysterious.

    From rituals that mark the turning of the seasons to shadows that move when no one is watching, every corner of this world invites you to question what you know — and what you dare to believe.

    Crafted With Care, Built to Immerse

    Brought to life by the team at The End of the Sun Forge and published by IMGN.PRO, this release marks the game’s debut on Xbox Series X|S, optimised to shine on the platform with rich detail, atmospheric lighting, and immersive audio that draws you deeper into the mystery with every moment.

    Whether you’re drawn in by the folklore, the quiet beauty of the world, or the secrets waiting to be uncovered, The End of the Sun promises an experience unlike any other — one that lingers long after you’ve put the controller down.

    The End of the Sun launches 4 November 2026 on Xbox Series X|S. Watch the trailer now — and prepare to meet the spirits of the land.

  • Depths, Decay, and Whispering Truth — End of Abyss: Cel Faces What Lurks Beneath the Surface!

    Depths, Decay, and Whispering Truth — End of Abyss: Cel Faces What Lurks Beneath the Surface!

    Descend into the dark — and find out what’s been hiding in the dark. From the minds behind beloved atmospheric adventures comes End of Abyss, a haunting descent into a sprawling, broken facility where nothing is as it seems — and no one you meet is entirely human.

    You step into the boots of Cel, a skilled combat technician sent to investigate strange disturbances deep within a sealed-off underground complex. What begins as a standard mission quickly unravels: your team is cut off, communications fail, and the facility holds secrets far older — and far deadlier — than anyone imagined.

    A World That Has Fallen Silent — and Awoken

    The facility was once a bustling hub of research and containment. Now it lies in ruin. Corridors stretch into shadow, systems groan and flicker back to life, and machines whisper from the depths — fragmented messages, corrupted warnings, and half-formed pleas that hint at what went wrong. Every wall, every console, every shadow carries a piece of the puzzle.

    Nothing Is Fully Human

    The deeper you go, the clearer the horror becomes. The workers, the security units, even the automated systems — they’ve all changed. Twisted, fused, and reborn into something unrecognisable. You’ll face creatures that were once people, and machines that have developed terrifying wills of their own. Survival means staying sharp, upgrading your gear, and never letting your guard down.

    Tech, Tactics, and Truth

    As a combat technician, you’re more than just a fighter — you’re an investigator. Use your scanner to uncover hidden paths, decode corrupted systems, and piece together the full story behind the disaster. Every discovery shifts your understanding of the place — and of yourself. Multiple endings await, shaped by what you find — and what you choose to believe.

    The Descent Changes Everything

    End of Abyss blends tense twin-stick combat, atmospheric exploration, and a story that unfolds through the world itself — no grand speeches, just the quiet, chilling evidence of what happened. The deeper you go, the more you’ll question: can you trust the machines? Can you trust your team? And can you trust yourself?

    The truth is waiting — if you dare to reach the bottom.

    Sludge, Strategy & Survival — Toxic Frontier Oozes onto the Scene!

    Publisher Meteorbyte Studios and developer Mint Gate Games are positively glowing with excitement — or perhaps that’s just radiation poisoning — as they officially reveal Toxic Frontier, a delightfully gritty card-powered survival strategy game unveiled during the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct. Prepare to wade into the muck, purify the wastelands, and build a haven where others see only ruin.

    Cards, Hexes & Hazardous Wastelands

    Toxic Frontier blends roguelike city-building with card strategy in a post-apocalyptic world where every tile is toxic, every decision counts, and every new card could save your settlement — or seal its fate.

    • Build from nothing — start with a single safe tile and expand your colony across a sprawling hex grid, turning poisoned land into a livable home
    • 40+ unique cards — unlock powerful structures, purification tools, defences, and special projects; mix and match to create devastatingly effective synergies
    • Watch your step — slithery things lurk in the muck; each biome brings new threats, strange creatures, and unexpected hazards
    • Retro irradiated aesthetic — crisp pixel-art meets vivid, saturated toxicity; a nostalgic look with a decidedly dangerous glow
    • No two runs are the same — procedural maps, evolving threats, and four distinct game modes keep every expedition fresh; two different endings await
    • Reach the target before your deck runs dry — manage your limited hand carefully; when the cards are gone, survival gets very difficult

  • All Vengeance — Vaewolf Unleashes Its Story at PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct

    All Vengeance — Vaewolf Unleashes Its Story at PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct

    Every beast has a story. This beast is born of vengeance.

    Following its striking reveal at Gamescom last month, Vaewolf has returned with a blistering new trailer during the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct — pulling back the curtain on the dark origins and relentless quest for revenge at the heart of this supernatural hack-and-slash.

    From Survivor to Legend — The Story of Vaewolf

    You were once a young elf — the sole survivor of a brutal massacre. Your family, your home, your peace — all taken by a ruthless Viking clan led by the chieftain Bloodaxe. Left for dead in the frozen wilderness, you were touched by two ancient curses: the feral rage of the werewolf and the immortal power of the vampire. Together, they forged something entirely new — the Vaewolf.

    Now you hunt. Not just for survival — for justice. For blood.

    • A journey born of grief — witness the massacre that ignites an unquenchable fire for retribution
    • Three forms, one purpose — shift instantly between Elf, Werewolf, and Vampire, each with unique powers that grow as your quest deepens
    • A land reimagined — hunt across a hand-drawn fantasy version of Cumbria’s Lake District, from mist-shrouded forests to sunken ruins and snowbound peaks
    • Face the architect of your pain — track Bloodaxe and his clan through three distinct regions, where every battle brings you closer to the final reckoning

    Trailer Reveal & Release Details

    The new story trailer dives deeper into the transformation that defines Vaewolf — showing how loss became power, and how one survivor became a nightmare for an entire clan.

    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
