The 1995 Quintet masterpiece arrives on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam & GOG), bringing one of the SNES era’s most cherished — and long hard-to-find — adventures to modern players for the first time.
A Legend Reborn
Originally launched in 1995 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Terranigma earned enduring acclaim for its sweeping story of rebirth, creation, and humanity; its vibrant pixel art; and its emotionally resonant soundtrack. Following protagonist Ark on a journey to resurrect the world — from the awakening of life to the rise of civilisation — the game has long stood as a high-water mark in Japanese RPG design, yet for decades remained trapped on its original platform with no official modern re-release.
That wait is now over. Clear River Games has partnered to faithfully restore the title while updating it for today’s hardware, with oversight and new artwork from original character artist Kamui Fujiwara, ensuring the spirit of the original is honoured throughout.
What’s New — And What Stays Classic
This is no full remake: the beloved gameplay, visuals, and narrative remain intact, thoughtfully enhanced with quality-of-life improvements and presentation options:
Quality-of-life upgrades: Quick magic button, item hot-swap, fully remappable controls, and a rewind function
Arranged Mode: An optional rebalanced experience with boosted magic damage, permanent mini-map, and free-save anywhere
Bonus content: In-game music player and museum mode featuring concept and production art
Collectors Rejoice — Three Physical Editions
For fans who want something tangible, three distinct physical releases are being produced for consoles:
Table
Edition
Highlights
Standard Edition
Full game, premium packaging
SteelBook® Edition
Collectable SteelBook case, exclusive cover art
Gaia Edition
Premium magnetic box with art by Kamui Fujiwara; SteelBook game; 200-page art book; enamel pin of pixel Ark; original soundtrack CD; 100% cotton cloth map
A limited-run Foiled Standard Edition will also be available exclusively through Clear River Games and Limited Run Games storefronts.

Terranigma launches digitally and physically on January 14, 2027. Wishlists are now live on Steam and GOG for PC, and digital storefronts for consoles will follow shortly.

Get ready to test your poker face: one of Jackbox’s most legendary social deduction games is breaking free from the Party Pack format for a massive, feature-packed standalone upgrade.
Your trustworthy pals at Jackbox Games today announced a standalone version of one of the all-time most popular games from its globally beloved Party Pack series: Fakin’ It XL, a lighthearted game where one fibber has to fool the room.
Boasting brand-new content, quality-of-life updates, and modes empowering prevaricators to join in remotely, Fakin’ It XL’s antics are perfect, approachable-for-all fun for your next game night—wherever in the world your deceptive rivals may be.
Originally debuting in The Jackbox Party Pack 3, the classic bluffing game has hosted over 50 million game sessions in recent years alone. Now, Jackbox is giving fanatical fibbers and casual casuals alike the definitive way to play.
What’s New in Fakin’ It XL?
If you’ve ever had to fake a point, pretend to agree with an opinion you didn’t read, or sweat profusely while everyone stares at you during game night, Fakin’ It XL is bringing back that chaotic magic—with double the size and double the trouble.
Here is what gamers can look forward to when it launches:
XL-Sized Parties: No longer limited to small groups, Fakin’ It XL doubles player capacity, supporting up to eight players in a single game alongside brand-new avatar choices.
New Question Types & Rounds: Fresh hijinks-fueling question formats ensure even veteran players won’t see the bluffs coming.
Emojional Damage: Players must respond to a prompt using only emojis (e.g., “the best gift for your boss”), while the Faker is left guessing with only a broad category (like “an object”). Good luck explaining why a shoe is the perfect workplace present!
Thumb Luck: A rapid-fire opinion round where players vote thumbs up or thumbs down on topics like “Working from Home” or “Dogs in Costumes”. The Faker has to vote totally blind and justify their stance afterwards.
Enhanced Remote Play: Seamless online compatibility means you don’t all need to be on the same couch. New features allow your in-game avatar to perform physical actions for you during video calls, making long-distance deceit smoother than ever.
Release Date & Platforms
Fakin’ It XL is scheduled to launch on November 12 for PC (Steam), PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S at a budget-friendly price point of $8.99, with Nintendo Switch releases following shortly after.
Jackbox has also revealed cost-effective holiday bundles that include Fakin’ It XL alongside The Jackbox Party Pack 12 and Trivia Murder Party 3, making it easier than ever to host the ultimate gaming session later this year.
Whether you’re a master manipulator or terrible at keeping a straight face, clear your schedule for November 12th—your next game night is about to get delightfully deceitful.
Retro gaming fans and modern platforming aficionados, take note! Independent developer Naula Studio has officially announced Necro Pop, an exciting new title that bridges the nostalgic golden age of arcade hardware with modern gaming convenience.
Described by the developers as an “Arcadevania,”Necro Pop seamlessly blends the pick-up-and-play, high-octane action of classic 16-bit arcade games with deep dungeon exploration, unlockable character abilities, and highly replayable challenges.
The headline twist? Necro Pop has been built from the ground up specifically for SNK’s legendary Neo Geo MVS arcade board and AES home console. However, modern gamers won’t be left in the dark—the game is also slated for a digital release across Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam in 2027.
Step Into the Land of Ghostreach
In Necro Pop, players take control of Poppi, a spirited ghost fighting to save her world. An insidious dark corruption called The Gloam has spread across the realm of Ghostreach, capturing friendly spirits along the way.
Everything changes when Poppi stumbles upon an ancient amulet that bestows her with a corporeal form. Armed with newly acquired physical abilities and magic, Poppi embarks on an action-packed quest to beat back The Gloam, navigate treacherous dungeons, and rescue her spectral companions.
What Exactly Is an “Arcadevania”?
Unlike traditional Metroidvanias, which can sometimes emphasise slow pacing and complex backtracking, Naula Studio’s self-titled “Arcadevania” genre focuses on speed, fluidity, and player agency.
Necro Pop boasts a variety of combat and traversal mechanics:
Dynamic Combat: Slice away with sword strikes, charge up powerful heavy attacks, or cast destructive spells like fireballs.
Creative Movement: Navigate environments in style—blow bubbles to reach higher ground, master pogo jumps on top of enemies, or combine movement skills on the fly.
Minions & Magic: Call upon mysterious helper minions to turn the tide of battle.
Secrets & Progression: Free trapped ghostly NPCs who will share forgotten lore, grant game-changing powers, or unlock secret areas throughout Ghostreach.
Built for 16-Bit Royalty
For hardware enthusiasts, Necro Pop is a love letter to original arcade technology. Developing directly on the classic Neo Geo MVS/AES architecture allows Naula Studio to push vibrant, cartoon-inspired pixel art that feels straight out of nineties arcade cabinets, while utilising full sprite capabilities to create fluid animations and expressive boss encounters.
For retro collectors, physical Neo Geo cartridges are set to ship alongside the digital releases, bringing authentic cartridge-based gaming back to life.
Play the Demo Now!
Can’t wait until 2027 to try it out? You don’t have to! Naula Studio has released a free playable demo on Steam, allowing PC players to experience the entire third level of the game right now. Additionally, attendees at the upcoming Tokyo Game Show will get a hands-on chance to play the game on the show floor.
Whether you’re a retro cartridge collector or a modern indie enthusiast, Necro Pop is shaping up to be a standout addition to the action-platformer scene.
Space pilots, take your seats and lock in your coordinates. Following the recent shadow drop of EVERSPACE 2: Galactic Edition on the Nintendo Switch 2, developer ROCKFISH Games has officially capped off its ambitious eight-year journey.
The studio has released a final, comprehensive technical update across PC, Xbox, and PlayStation platforms. Packed with performance optimisations, Steam Deck Verification, highly requested community bug fixes, and a massive celebratory franchise sale on Steam, this patch serves as the perfect victory lap for one of the most beloved single-player space action RPGs of recent years.
Here is everything you need to know about the final chapter of EVERSPACE 2 and what’s next for ROCKFISH Games.
A Worthy Send-off: What’s in the Final Technical Update?
While the core story and expansion content for EVERSPACE 2 wrapped up with Wrath of the Ancients, the dev team didn’t want to fly off into the sunset without giving all existing platforms one last coat of polish.
Much of the fine-tuning done behind the scenes to get EVERSPACE 2 running smoothly for its Nintendo Switch 2 launch has trickled down into this cross-platform update. Key highlights include:
Steam Deck Verified Status: On-the-go space combat just got a massive upgrade. The update introduces handheld-specific UI adjustments, making text, menus, and HUD elements far easier to read on smaller screens like the Steam Deck.
Console Optimisations: Players on console—especially Xbox Series S owners—will notice a smoother ride. Hardware optimisations developed alongside porting partner Engine Software bring improved frame pacing and overall performance stability.
Quality-of-Life & Bug Fixes: ROCKFISH Games combed through player feedback to squelch remaining bugs, adjust lighting anomalies, tweak UI responsiveness, and implement minor quality-of-life feature requests from the community.
The End of an 8-Year Odyssey
The release marks a poignant milestone for the Hamburg-based studio.
“This technical update caps off an eight-year journey with EVERSPACE 2. Our vision for an open-world spaceship action RPG began alongside the founding of our studio more than a decade ago and was realized in this ambitious project,”said Michael Schade, CEO and Co-Founder of ROCKFISH Games.
From its early Kickstarter days to its Early Access debut in 2021 and its massive full launch, EVERSPACE 2 has earned critical acclaim for its fast-paced dogfights, rich loot system, handcrafted star systems, and gripping campaign.
Barring any emergency hotfixes, this patch marks the official conclusion of post-launch development for EVERSPACE 2.
What’s Next for ROCKFISH Games?
If you’re worried this is the end of the line for fans of deep space dogfighting, don’t unbuckle your flight harness just yet.
ROCKFISH Games has confirmed that while EVERSPACE 2 is content-complete, the team is far from done with sci-fi adventures. Backed by a prestigious €8 million development grant from the German government, the 30-person independent studio has already shifted its primary focus to a brand-new project set within the EVERSPACE universe.
While details remain strictly under wraps for now, fans can expect the team to deliver another action-packed space adventure down the road.
Celebrate with the EVERSPACE Steam Sale!
To mark the update and say thank you to their dedicated community, ROCKFISH Games has launched a limited-time Steam Franchise Sale.
Whether you are looking to dive into EVERSPACE 2 for the very first time, pick up massive story expansions like Titans or the award-winning Wrath of the Ancients, or grab the rogue-lite original EVERSPACE, discounts across the entire franchise make now the ultimate time to jump into the cockpit.
Check out the update patch notes on PC, Xbox, or PlayStation, grab your Steam Deck, and enjoy the definitive way to play EVERSPACE 2.
If you’ve been keeping an eye on the bullet heaven/reverse-bullet-hell scene, you know how hard it is to stand out in a crowd dominated by iconic wave-survival action. Yet, Awesome Games Studio managed to do just that. After racking up over 600,000 sales and securing a 91% “Very Positive” rating during its Early Access run, Yet Another Zombie Survivors has officially crossed the finish line—launching its massive Version 1.0 update across PC and major console platforms.
Even better? While many developers use a full release as an excuse to bump up the cost, the studio delivered what amounts to four major updates’ worth of brand-new content without raising the game’s base price of $14.99 / £12.79 (plus launch discounts on select storefronts).
Here is everything you need to know about the 1.0 launch and why it’s time to rally your squad.
Multiplatform Launch & High-Octane Action
As of August 20, players can jump into the squad-building carnage on Steam, GOG, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. Nintendo Switch players won’t be left behind for long either, as a Switch port is set to follow shortly.
While the core loop remains simple—build a team of survivors, customise their upgrades, and hold down the line against endlessly swelling hordes of the infected—the 1.0 release fundamentally expands what a bullet heaven game can offer.
What’s New in Version 1.0?
The 1.0 release isn’t just a polish pass; it introduces features rarely seen in the genre:
The 9th Survivor – The Ranger: Joining the fight is a hardened veteran capable of steering the tide of battle with a powerful crossbow and her loyal animal companions. Beyond her personal firepower, she provides high-tier support, boosting party-wide Critical and Luck stats while bringing crucial healing abilities to keep team synergy high.
New Bio Lab Map: Step inside the circular, hazardous facility where the outbreak started. Featuring unique environmental mechanics like decontamination zones and toxic fumes creeping inward, the Bio Lab demands constant movement and tactical awareness.
Boss Rush Mode & Arena Bosses: Looking for a direct confrontation? The brand-new Boss Rush mode turns up the heat, forcing you to race against a 10-minute clock to build up power before clashing with massive arena bosses. Defeat them as fast as possible to claim top spots on global leaderboards.
Story & Side Missions + Central HUB Area: Break up the chaotic runs with structured story objectives, side missions, and a HUB base to track your progression and lore.
Achievements, Challenges & Polish: Packed with extra achievements, quality-of-life improvements, and meta-progression adjustments, 1.0 gives completionists dozens of hours of new targets to chase.
Unbeatable Value for Rogue-lite Fans
In an era where “1.0 release price hikes” have become standard practice, Awesome Games Studio’s decision to keep the base price locked at $14.99 is a welcome breath of fresh air for gamers. Combining team-building strategy, action-RPG style synergies, and smooth performance on PC and modern consoles, Yet Another Zombie Survivors cements itself as a must-play for fans of Vampire Survivors, Brotato, and Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor.
Whether you’re a returning veteran looking to test out the Ranger in the Bio Lab or a total newcomer picking up a controller for the first time, there’s never been a better time to assemble your crew and clean up the streets.
