  • Building Tomorrow Together — Loftia Launches Early Access November 3!

    Building Tomorrow Together — Loftia Launches Early Access November 3!

    Independent Australian studio Qloud Games has officially announced that its eagerly awaited solarpunk life-sim MMO Loftia will arrive in Early Access on November 3, 2026, landing on PC and Mac via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

    Revealed originally during the PC Gaming Show, Loftia has been four years in the making — backed by a $1.3 million Kickstarter supported by over 17,000 players, and shaped alongside the community through closed Alpha and Beta playtests.

    What Is Loftia?

    Loftia is a cosy, optimistic solarpunk world set across a breathtaking archipelago of floating islands — a place where you don’t just survive, you thrive together. There’s no combat, no grinding to dominate — just a beautiful, shared space to build, grow, and care for the world and each other.

    • Build your dream home — design and decorate your very own sky-island sanctuary, customising everything from layout to decor
    • Farm & grow sustainably — nurture crops through eco-friendly hydroponic systems, harvest produce, and live in harmony with nature
    • Rescue & care for animals — give creatures a safe home and tend to your island’s wildlife
    • Play together — team up on large-scale community projects, explore ancient floating ruins, solve puzzles, and uncover the secrets beneath the clouds
    • Shape the world — your choices contribute to a living, evolving shared world where progress is collective

    “Loftia started as a small dream. We wanted a relaxing online world we could escape to with our friends — a third space with a welcoming community, things to do, and a home we could keep on coming back to.”

    — Michael Su, Co-Founder & Studio Director, Qloud Games

  • Fore! Breaking Par & Breaking Rules — Really Illegal Golf Unveiled by No More Robots

    Fore! Breaking Par & Breaking Rules — Really Illegal Golf Unveiled by No More Robots

    No More Robots — the publisher behind hits like Descenders, Little Rocket Lab, and Thank You For Your Application — has teamed up with New Zealand studio Pushlab Games to spill the tee on their brand-new multiplayer stealth golf experience: Really Illegal Golf.

    Golf just got a whole lot more dangerous. And a whole lot more fun.

    The Premise: Golf Without Permission

    You and your friends have been kicked out of every respectable golf club in town. Your memberships? Revoked. Your reputation? In tatters. Your love of the game? Undimmed — and now, completely unshackled from rules, dress codes, and closing times.

    So you do what any self-respecting golf fanatic would do: you sneak in. Under cover of night, you turn the city into your personal course — dodging guards, outwitting CCTV, and playing holes in places they definitely don’t belong. From quiet fairways to construction sites, bank vaults, and even restricted military zones — if you can reach it, you can tee off from it.

    How It Plays — Stealth, Strategy, and Slightly Illegal Tactics

    • Play solo or with friends — team up in co-op, or compete to see who can pull off the best crime-and-putt round
    • Sneak or smash — creep past patrols quietly, or use golf balls (and slightly less legal tools) to knock obstacles out of the way and guards off your trail
    • Arm yourself — customise your gear: tasers, distractions, and more are all on hand when a quiet approach just won’t work
    • Ever-more absurd courses — things escalate: what starts as sneaking onto a private green evolves into breaking into high-security zones where the authorities really don’t want you playing
    • Get the ball in the hole — however you can. Tower cranes, rooftops, moving vehicles — every shot is a challenge, and every approach is valid

    Demo Available Now — Full Game Coming 2027

    The announcement dropped during the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct 2026, and you can dive in straight away:

    The demo features a full nine-hole course, multiplayer support, guards and cameras, and multiple ways to play — sneak through undetected, or cause glorious chaos along the way.

    Some play by the rules. Others just want to play. Grab your clubs, pick your approach, and remember: if you get caught, you were never there.

  • Targem Games Announces Star Conflict: Burrownauts – A Fresh Take on Space Roguelites

    Targem Games Announces Star Conflict: Burrownauts – A Fresh Take on Space Roguelites

    The sci-fi sandbox universe of Star Conflict is expanding into bold new territory. Development studio Targem Games has officially announced Star Conflict: Burrownauts, an upcoming action roguelite that promises a unique blend of chill resource gathering and intense, bullet-heaven combat.

    Whether you are a longtime veteran of the franchise or a fan of action roguelites like Vampire Survivors and Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, Star Conflict: Burrownauts is aiming straight for your wishlist.

    Mine, Upgrade, Defend: The Core Gameplay Loop

    Star Conflict: Burrownauts branches off from the MMO roots of the main franchise to focus on a fast-paced, highly replayable single-player or co-op roguelite loop.

    Players pilot customised spacecraft to explore forgotten, ancient planetoids lurking on the outer edges of known space. The gameplay transitions seamlessly between two distinct rhythms:

    • Relaxing Resource Mining: Tunnel into alien terrain, harvest rare ores, and uncover mysterious ancient technology scattered across subterranean planetoid networks.
    • Fast-Paced Bullet-Heaven Combat: Space isn’t empty—and the local wildlife isn’t friendly. Defend your mining rigs and base from massive, swarming waves of alien threats using automated weapons, custom ship loadouts, and screen-clearing special abilities.

    Between runs, players bring their hard-earned materials back to upgrade their fleet, unlock permanent weapons, boost defences, and craft specialised gear tailored to survive increasingly hazardous alien environments.

    Why Gaming Fans Should Keep an Eye on Burrownauts

    Targem Games—the developers behind popular vehicular combat titles like Crossout and the original Star Conflict—are bringing their expertise in tight craft mechanics and tactical combat into the burgeoning “bullet-heaven” subgenre.

    Feature HighlightsWhat to Expect
    Genre HybridCosy mining mechanics mixed with high-stress horde defence.
    Deep ProgressionRoguelite meta-upgrades, ship customisation, and tech trees.
    Expanded LoreExplore new corners and ancient mysteries of the Star Conflict universe.
    High ReplayabilityProcedural planetoid environments ensure no two mining runs are the same.
