Ubisoft and Ivory Tower are keeping the pedal to the metal in The Crew Motorfest, and their latest teaser is a certified treat for fans of precision engineering and lightweight performance. The newly released Alpine Elite Bundle Trailer has officially dropped, showcasing a gorgeous pairing of French automotive art designed to dominate the streets of O’ahu.
If you have a need for speed and an appreciation for track-focused agility, this is a pack you’ll want to keep on your radar.
The Irresistible Attraction of Lightness
While previous Elite Bundles focused on raw, heavy American muscle or ultra-exclusive hypercars, the Alpine Elite Bundle shifts the spotlight toward a different philosophy: extreme weight reduction and cutting-edge aerodynamics.
The trailer highlights two stunning vehicles that players will soon be able to add to their virtual garages:
Alpine A110R Ultime: The absolute pinnacle of the modern A110 lineup. This track-honed monster is built for razor-sharp handling, combining carbon fibre components with a finely-tuned setup made to slice through winding coastal roads and tight street circuits alike.
Alpine Alpenglow: Moving from production excellence to futuristic fantasy, the Alpenglow concept car is a striking, hydrogen-powered hypercar vision. With its glowing light signatures and aerodynamic silhouette, it looks less like a traditional car and more like a spacecraft designed for the tarmac.
When Can You Drive Them?
Release Date: Mark your calendars for July 8th!
The Alpine Elite Bundle will officially become available in-game on all supported platforms, including PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC (as well as via Ubisoft+).
Whether you’re looking to shave seconds off your best time in the latest Summit events or simply want to cruise the vibrant Hawaiian landscape in style, these two French powerhouses offer a stark, refreshing contrast to the usual grid.
Check out the official trailer over on Ubisoft’s channels to see these two machines in action, and get ready to experience the “irresistible attraction of lightness” next month!
Get your lasagnas ready and hide the spinach! Microids has just announced a brand-new 3D platforming adventure that promises to make everyone’s least favourite day of the week a whole lot more exciting. Developed by OSome Studio, Garfield – Escape from Monday is officially set to launch later this year.
The world’s most famous orange, cynical, and pasta-loving feline is embarking on an unforgettable journey that is as dynamic as it is delicious. While exact plot details are still under wraps, the title suggests Garfield is doing what we all wish we could do: completely bypassing Monday.
OSome Studio is no stranger to bringing iconic comic characters to life in vibrant 3D worlds (having previously worked on the Asterix & Obelix XXL series and The Smurfs – Mission Vileaf), making them the perfect team to capture the charm, humour, and attitude of Jim Davis’ beloved creation. Players can expect plenty of platforming challenges, puzzles, and undoubtedly a few nap-related mechanics.
Release Date and Platforms
You won’t have to wait too long to join the orange cat’s latest escapade. Garfield – Escape from Monday will be available on September 24, 2026.
The game is getting a wide release, launching across all major modern platforms:
Nintendo Switch
PlayStation 5
Xbox Series X|S
PC
Whether you want to play on the couch or on the go, Monday doesn’t stand a chance. Stay tuned to TechMash for more updates, trailers, and gameplay reveals as we get closer to the September launch!
Horror and action fans, grab your katanas and ammo belts. Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment have officially deployed the first massive post-launch content drop for John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando, and it is a bloody good time.
The Urban Blight Update is out now as a completely free download for players on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store). If you thought the Sludge God’s initial outbreak was bad, wait until you see what happens when humanity tries to weaponise the leftovers.
Here is a breakdown of all the fresh, gore-soaked features landing in the update.
Back to the Concrete Jungle: The New Mission
Set exactly one year after the chaotic events of the main game, the fight shifts from the rural wastelands into the shattered ruins of Rockbridge. The shady Hopewell company—having learned absolutely nothing from past disasters—has attempted to weaponise the radioactive sludge. Surprise, surprise: it backfired horribly.
The Commandos are called back into active duty to clean up the neon-lit, rain-slicked city streets before the entire urban landscape collapses into another apocalyptic nightmare.
Air Hazards and Heavy Metal: New Enemies & Vehicles
The battlefield is evolving, meaning your squad has to deal with new threats and enjoy some highly destructive new toys.
The Hornet: Say hello to the game’s very first flying enemy. This mutated insectoid horror will swoop down, snatch unsuspecting players right off the ground, and drop them from lethal heights.
The Thrasher APC: A heavily armoured personnel carrier equipped with a devastating turret and missile system. The best part? It can be found and utilised across multiple maps in the game.
The Forklift: An exclusive, objective-based vehicle tied directly to the new Urban Blight mission.
Lock and Load: 6 New Weapons
To counter the escalating horde, the update introduces six brand-new weapons to the Commandos’ arsenal, spanning across different slots to shake up your loadout meta:
Salvo MGL (Grenade Launcher)
Heartstopper Carbine LAC 3. Precision BAR Gen 1 (Sniper Rifle)
Thundershot OEP (Energy Pistol)
Obsidian OEP (Beam Weapon)
Sludgebane (A brutal new melee option)
Challenge Accepted: Daily & Weekly Trials
Looking for a reason to log in every day? The update introduces Trials, a structured challenge system featuring daily, weekly, and seasonal objectives (courtesy of Leon’s Assignments). Completing these high-stakes tasks will reward you with massive XP drops and exclusive cosmetic unlocks.
Looking for more style? > Alongside the free update, Focus Entertainment has launched Cosmetic Pack 1 (included in the Bloody Season Pass). It introduces graffiti and skull-themed weapon wraps, leopard-print vehicle customizations, unique survivor skins, and—yes—a popcorn weapon charm to honor the master of horror himself.
Time to Group Up
If you haven’t jumped into this ’80s-inspired, action-horror shooter yet, there’s never been a better time. Saber Interactive has also packaged this update with several quality-of-life improvements, cross-platform save transfers via PROS, and a limited-time 25% discount on the base game across digital storefronts.
Turn up the synthwave, call your squad, and go clean up the city.

Lock and load, Vault Hunters! Gearbox has officially dropped a massive new teaser trailer for Borderlands 4, and it is packed with exactly what we want: high-octane chaos, massive explosions, and a metric ton of shiny new loot.
Coming fast on the heels of the recent Version 1.7 update, the upcoming Version 1.8 patch dropping on June 25, 2026, is shaping up to be a monumental day for the game. We are getting a dual-threat drop featuring the game’s most brutal free endgame challenge yet alongside a brand-new paid DLC expansion.
Here is everything you need to know about the teaser, the upcoming Gearbox DevCast, and the sheer volume of mayhem heading to Kairos next week.
1. The Takedown at Hadron Abyss (Free for All Players)
If you thought you’d mastered Borderlands 4’s endgame, think again. Gearbox is introducing the Takedown at Hadron Abyss, which developers are calling the game’s most extreme endgame gauntlet to date.
Designed for cooperative squads with meticulously optimised builds (especially those pushing the newly released UVHM Level 7), this free raid will require quick reflexes and serious synergy to survive.
The Gauntlet: You’ll face relentless mobs, a tricky midway miniboss, and a devastating final boss fight.
The Rewards: Surviving the Abyss yields the best gear in the game, including 1 brand-new Pearlescent weapon and 9 new Legendary items.
Bragging Rights: Complete specific Takedown challenges to unlock exclusive, prestigious cosmetics, including 3 weapon skins, a universal Vault Hunter skin, and a sleek new ECHO-4 Drone skin.
2. Bounty Pack 3: A Zane to Kill For (Paid DLC)
Arriving on the exact same day, Bounty Pack 3: A Zane to Kill For is the next premium expansion included for owners of the Borderlands 4 Deluxe Edition, Super Deluxe Edition, or the Bounty Pack Bundle (also available for standalone purchase).
Following the narrative threads on Kairos, this pack adds fresh story content, quirky humour, and a focused hunt. Here is a quick breakdown of what’s included:
A brand-new storyline mission featuring three distinct minibosses and an epic final boss.
A wave of new Legendary and ultra-rare Pearlescent gear to hunt down.
A brand-new themed Vault Card packed with 24 cosmetics and 4 pieces of rerollable gear.
A new vehicle to tear up the terrain, a universal Vault Hunter Skin, and an ECHO-4 Drone skin.
Tune In: Gearbox DevCast Incoming!
Want a deeper dive before the June 25 launch? Gearbox is hosting a dedicated DevCast today (June 18) at 9 AM PT on YouTube and Spotify. Hosts Andrew Reiner and April Johnson are sitting down with the developers to break down gameplay footage, strategies for Hadron Abyss, and the lore behind Bounty Pack 3.
The Verdict
Borderlands 4 is keeping its foot firmly on the gas for its 2026 roadmap. By giving hardcore players an extreme endgame test with the free Takedown while simultaneously expanding the universe with Bounty Pack 3, Gearbox is ensuring there’s something for every tier of Vault Hunter.

Ever sat through a political broadcast or a fiery interview and wished you could shout at the TV, “Wait a minute, that completely contradicts what you said five minutes ago!”?
Well, indie studio Sanuk Games is giving you the moderator’s microphone.
The veteran studio has officially announced “In the Hot Seat,” a brand-new political comedy game heading to PC and consoles. Billed as an interactive talk show simulator, this unique title strips away the usual political jargon and tasks you with holding fictional, larger-than-life presidential candidates accountable to their very own words.
Meet the Candidates
The election is looming, and your job is to guide your fellow citizens to vote wisely. To do that, you’ll need to tear down the spin from three distinct presidential hopefuls representing very different (and very wild) political ideologies:
Claris Niamara (The National Party): A hardline candidate who builds her platform on blaming immigrants and minorities for the nation’s struggles.
Alberto Carnella (The People’s Party): A populist firebrand who pits the working class against capitalists and claims law enforcement only exists to protect private wealth.
Orvin Ruyis (The Center Union): The sitting incumbent president who tries so desperately to play the middle ground and compromise that he ultimately ends up alienating absolutely everyone.
Spot the Fallacy, Win the Debate
The gameplay mechanics look to blend investigative point-and-click logic with detective puzzle elements. As the interview unfolds, you won’t just sit back and listen. You will actively pick apart the candidates’ stances in real-time.
Did they just make two statements that completely contradict one another? Point it out! Are they flip-flopping on something they said at the start of the interview? Dig through the interview history! Are they straying from factual reality? Cross-reference their claims with the in-game encyclopedia! Did they use a textbook logical fallacy to dodge a difficult question? Call them out on it!
No Real-World Agenda Here: While the game dives into highly mature and sensitive topics—from culture wars to civil disobedience—Sanuk Games notes that the title takes place in an entirely fictional universe with no real-world nations or religions. It aims to tackle heavy issues with light-hearted, non-partisan comedy rather than pushing an agenda.
Development with a Solo Twist
If the developer’s name sounds familiar, it’s because Sanuk Games has been delivering arcade and indie experiences for over two decades. Interestingly, the studio has adapted to recent industry shifts; founder Yan Marchal is handling “In the Hot Seat” as a solo development project.
The game uses AI tools to assist with generating background art, props, music, and voiceover elements, while ensuring that the core of the game—the script and intricate writing—is entirely human-crafted. Players looking for a casual playthrough can lean on a built-in hint and reveal system, while hardcore logic fans can disable assistance to solve the conversational puzzles entirely on their own.
Platforms and Availability
While an exact release date and price tag have yet to be locked in, In the Hot Seat is officially “coming soon.” It is currently confirmed for release on Steam, PlayStation 5, and is pending approval for Xbox Series X|S.
You can already check out the official trailer on YouTube or head over to the Steam and PlayStation stores to add it to your wishlist.
Horror fans, it’s time to solve the configuration. Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games have officially broken the chains and revealed the highly anticipated release date for Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival.
Mark your calendars for a legendary dose of suffering: the survival-horror action title is set to slice its way onto PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam on October 8, 2026.
To celebrate the announcement, the developers dropped a sickeningly beautiful new trailer that offers a first-person peek at the nightmare awaiting players—and exactly what happens to those judged unworthy by the Cenobites.
Check out the breakdown of what we know so far, and watch your step; hell is officially coming.
We Have Such Sights to Show You: The Story and Gameplay
Hellraiser: Revival marks a massive milestone as a story-driven, first-person horror adventure heavily inspired by the dark, claustrophobic atmosphere of the original 1987 film and its immediate sequel. Even better? Horror maestro Clive Barker has been deeply involved in the game’s narrative development, ensuring the lore stays beautifully twisted.
In the game, players take on the role of Aidan, who accidentally triggers a ritual involving a supernatural puzzle box known as the Genesis Configuration. When his girlfriend Sunny is taken by the Cenobites to a hellish, shifting abyss known as the Labyrinth, Aidan must follow.
Here is what you can expect from the gameplay:
Harness Infernal Abilities: You won’t just be shooting and dodging. Players can wield the supernatural powers of the Genesis Configuration itself—including telekinesis, pyrokinesis, and invoking the franchise’s iconic hell-chains to tear through enemies.
An Arsenal of Torment: Combine earthly firearms and brutal melee weapons (like clubs and machetes) to survive a fanatical cult called the Scarlet Church and Hell’s most deviant wretches.
The Return of an Icon: Horror legend Doug Bradley is officially back to voice Pinhead, bringing his chillingly calculated presence back to the forefront.
“Fail, and you’ll face legendary suffering.”

If you thought your dinosaur theme parks were finally secure, think again. Frontier Developments has officially dropped the highly anticipated Rebirth Expansion for Jurassic World Evolution 3, and it is easily the game’s most ambitious, chaotic, and thrilling update yet.
Serving as a prequel to the upcoming blockbuster film Jurassic World Rebirth, this premium expansion transports park managers to the uncharted territory of Île Saint-Hubert. Packed with mutant predators, ancient ruins, and groundbreaking scientific features, this DLC is a dream come true for digital palaeontologists and management sim fans alike.
Let’s dive into everything you need to know about what’s waiting for you inside the gates.
A Top-Secret Prequel Campaign
Set before the dramatic collapse of the island in 2010, the new narrative campaign puts you in control of InGen’s top-secret operations. You won’t just be building a standard tourist attraction; you’ll be managing a shared cash balance across three distinct, high-stakes locations:
The Main Facility: The central hub of advanced research and containment.
The Ancient Valley: A massive ecosystem built for observing gargantuan sauropods.
The Riverside Lab: A specialised facility engineered for synthesising semi-aquatic wonders.
Progress is driven by a flexible new Assignment system. Focus on your priority objectives to advance the overarching story, or take on optional side-assignments to unlock rare genomes, experimental genetic traits, and advanced research opportunities.
Meet the New Stars: 4 New Prehistoric Species
The headline of any Jurassic World DLC is the dinosaurs, and the Rebirth Expansion delivers some of the most terrifying and unique creatures ever seen in the franchise.
Distortus rex: A massive mutant predator that is the first of its kind. Imbued with extreme aggression and horrifyingly unique kill animations, keeping this beast behind fences will put your security protocols to the absolute test.
Mutadon: Combining the terrifying hunting instincts of a Velociraptor with the aerial dominance of a Pterosaur, this winged hybrid can cross terrain rapidly and launch devastating aerial ambushes.
Titanosaurus (Family Unit): The largest dinosaur currently in the entire JWE series. For the first time, you’ll be managing a complete family unit, including never-before-seen juvenile variants that will roam the Ancient Valley.
Aquilops (Family Unit): A small, quirky ceratopsian that shifts between walking on four legs and standing on two. Complete with striking tail stripes and distinctive adult dimorphism, they add some much-needed charm to the roster.
Beyond the new species, the DLC introduces movie-accurate models and skins for fan-favourites like the T. rex, Spinosaurus, Mosasaurus, Quetzalcoatlus, Dilophosaurus, and Velociraptor, alongside sleek new Rebirth-themed vehicle skins.
Revolutionary Science and Architecture
Frontier hasn’t just added skins and species; they’ve overhauled how you build and power your facilities.
Geothermal Power Networks: Say goodbye to simple power grids. For the first time, you can harness natural geothermal energy on Île Saint-Hubert. You’ll need to strategically build and manage a complex network of underground pipes to keep power flowing and prevent catastrophic ecosystem failures.
Open Air Aviaries: Take your flying enclosures to spectacular new heights. These structures feature raised flying ceilings, no visual obstructions, and expanded terrain editing options so your Mutadons can fly freely (and hopefully stay contained).
Experimental Traits: Push the boundaries of genetics by applying experimental traits to your species. These genetic alterations introduce drastic social and behavioural shifts, forcing you to balance scientific curiosity with rigid park security.
Mayan-Themed Creativity: To give your park a distinct look, the DLC includes 387 scenery pieces and 37 blueprints, blending modern InGen technology with towering, ancient Mayan temples.
Free Content: Update 1.3 Is Live!
Even if you aren’t picking up the expansion right away, all Jurassic World Evolution 3 players receive the massive Update 1.3 for free. This update introduces semi-aquatic behaviour for the iconic T. rex, adds Cretaceous Cruise functionality inside your aviaries, and marks the triumphant return of the Cearadactylus family unit!
Jurassic World Evolution 3: Rebirth Expansion is available now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S for £19.99 / $24.99.

Co-op fans, grab your walkie-talkies and find your most reliable gaming partner. Total Mayhem Games is back to test the absolute limits of your communication skills. The highly anticipated next entry in their critically acclaimed cooperative puzzle series, We Were Here Tomorrow, has officially dropped a playable demo on Steam as part of Steam Next Fest!
If you and your player two are looking for your next obsession, the gates to the mystery are open right now.
Welcome to the Norcek Facility
Breaking away from the icy, medieval terrors of Castle Rock from the previous games, We We Here Tomorrow plunges players into a striking, retro-futuristic setting.
In the Steam Next Fest demo, you and your partner wake up trapped in separate pods inside the enigmatic Norcek Facility. Surrounded by strange, unfamiliar machinery and high-tech puzzles, your only guide is a calm, confident, yet deeply mysterious voice pushing you through a series of assignments. Why are you here? What is the purpose of this facility? That is for you to find out.
The Golden Rule: Just like its predecessors, communication is your ultimate lifeline. You are split up, meaning you each see completely different clues, rooms, and mechanics. With only a walkie-talkie connecting you, progress completely relies on how well you can describe what you see.
What’s New in We Were Here Tomorrow?
Total Mayhem Games is shaking up the formula while keeping the core teamwork mechanics that fans love. Here is what you can expect from the demo and the upcoming full release:
Distinct Character Abilities: For the first time, you aren’t just relying on your walkie-talkie. Both explorers are equipped with unique tools and distinct abilities that must be combined to bypass obstacles.
Asymmetrical Brain-Teasers: Success requires complete synergy. Because your screens show entirely different perspectives, you literally have to become each other’s eyes and ears.
A Narrative-Driven Mystery: The sci-fi, retro-future setting brings a fresh narrative depth to the franchise, trading dark fantasy for advanced, uncharted technology and hidden corporate secrets.
Play the Demo Now, Full Launch Coming Later This Year!
The We Were Here Tomorrow demo is available to play for free on Steam from June 15 to June 22 during Steam Next Fest. Total Mayhem Games has spent the last few weeks polishing the experience based on community feedback, making this the perfect time to dive in.
Don’t worry if you aren’t a PC player—the full game will feature full cross-platform multiplayer when it launches. The full version of We Were Here Tomorrow is scheduled to launch later this year and is officially available to wishlist right now across Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
Go grab your partner, download the demo, and see if your friendship can survive the Norcek Facility!
The wait is officially over for Sword Art Online fans. Bandai Namco has dropped the highly anticipated Demo Trailer for Echoes of Aincrad, giving us a thrilling look at the dark, stakes-heavy virtual world we’ve been waiting to dive into. Better yet? The playable demo is officially live right now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam!
If you’ve always wanted to experience the harrowing “death game” of the original SAO arc without being forced to step into Kirito’s boots, this is your moment.
Check out the breakdown of what the trailer reveals and why you need to download the demo immediately.
Watch the Echoes of Aincrad Demo Trailer
Forge Your Hero, Risk Your Reality
The demo trailer pulls no punches, highlighting the high-stakes, Souls-lite survival mechanics that define the gameplay loop. Unlike previous entries in the franchise, Echoes of Aincrad places you at the centre of the story.
Through an extensive avatar customisation system, you design your own original character, choose your weapon style, and set out to conquer the unforgiving floors of the floating castle.
What’s Packed into the Playable Demo?
Bandai Namco is giving players a massive chunk of gameplay to test out before the full launch. Here is what you can expect when you log in today:
The Beta Test Chapter: Play through the prologue and five full missions spanning the first two floors of Aincrad.
Full Arsenal Access: Test out all 6 core weapon types (including Swords, Rapiers, Daggers, Maces, Two-Handed Swords, and Two-Handed Axes) to see what fits your playstyle.
Progressive Caps: Character levels are capped at Level 15, and Weapon Proficiency is capped at Level 3 for the trial.
Seamless Save Data Carry-Over: Every bit of progress, gear, and experience you earn in the demo carries directly over to the retail version of the game.
Note: Your avatar’s appearance is locked during the Beta Test chapter, and demo save data cannot be used to cheese the ultra-hard “Death Game Mode” in the final release.
Combat & Visuals: A Breath of Fresh Air
Early impressions of the demo indicate that developer Game Studio Inc. has opted for a much more grounded, tactical experience than the skill-spamming action of previous SAO titles.
Combat relies heavily on stamina management, perfect parries, and strategic positioning. The game’s stunning environments capture the scale and melancholic beauty of the original anime’s first arc. Defeating the iconic Kobold boss at the end of the tutorial requires actual focus, proving that survival in this version of Aincrad won’t be handed to you on a silver platter.
Release Date and Pre-Order Bonuses
Echoes of Aincrad officially launches on July 10, 2026. If you like what you play in the demo, pre-orders are open now across all major platforms. Securing your copy early grants you the Proto-Elucidator Series Weapon Pack, giving you a classic aesthetic edge right from day one. Deluxe and Ultimate editions are also available, offering early unlocks for the brutal Death Game Mode and future story DLC.

If you’ve ever found yourself hypnotized by power-washing videos on TikTok or felt a strange surge of pride after making your own vehicle look showroom-shiny, listen up. There is a brand-new simulator on the horizon, and it’s about to turn your obsession with cleanliness into a full-blown business empire.
A free demo of Car Wash Simulator is officially live on PC, giving players a taste of what it takes to rise from a humble scrubber to a car wash tycoon.
Here is why this quirky indie title needs to be on your radar.
From Soap Scum to CEO: What to Expect
Car Wash Simulator isn’t just about spraying water at dirty sedans (though the spraying mechanics are incredibly satisfying). It’s a dual-layered experience that marries hyper-detailed, hands-on cleaning with deep tycoon management.
1. Deep Cleaning Mechanics
Forget just running a car through an automated tunnel. This game gets down and dirty. You’ll be managing a variety of tools to tackle different types of grime:
High-pressure washers to blast away thick mud.
Foam cannons for that perfect, satisfying lather.
Detailing tools to clean interior upholstery and polish rims until they gleam.
2. Build Your Business Empire
Once the water is turned off, the real strategy begins. You aren’t just an employee; you’re the boss. The demo gives you a sneak peek into:
Upgrading your equipment and buying better detergents.
Managing your shop’s finances and expanding your bays.
Hiring staff to automate the workflow so you can focus on the big picture.
3. Reputation is Everything
In the car wash business, word of mouth can make or break you. Treat a rare supercar with extra care, and your reputation will skyrocket, attracting high-end clientele who pay top dollar. Cut corners, and bad reviews will stall your business faster than a dead battery.
When is the Full Release?
If the demo leaves you craving more soap and strategy, you won’t have to wait too long for the full experience.
Release Update: The full version of Car Wash Simulator is scheduled to launch later in 2026.
While PC players get the first taste via the current Steam demo, console gamers aren’t being left in the dust. The developers have confirmed that the full launch will also be coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
The Verdict: Download It Today
Simulation games are at their best when they take an everyday chore and turn it into an addictive, rewarding gameplay loop. Car Wash Simulator hits that sweet spot perfectly. It’s therapeutic, strategic, and entirely free to try right now.
Head over to Steam, grab your pressure washer, and start building your empire today.
Virtual longshoremen, grab your high-vis jackets and hard hats. If you thought you finally had the chaotic logistics of Port Wake under control, Saber Interactive is back to throw a massive, heavy-duty wrench into your perfectly organised shipping schedules.
The first major DLC expansion for the hyper-realistic port simulation game, Docked: Deep Waters, has officially made landfall. Available right now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, this update brings a tidal wave of new tools, missions, and mechanical challenges to the table.
Crisis at Port Wake: The Stakes Just Got Higher
Just as Port Wake is right on the cusp of achieving coveted International Port status, disaster strikes. A major ship accident has completely halted operations, threatening to sink the family business and ruin the local economy.
It’s up to you to clean up the wreckage, restore order, and expand your maritime empire. But standard shipping container methods aren’t going to cut it this time.
Enter the Magnet Gripper
The crown jewel of the Deep Waters DLC is the brand-new Magnet Gripper attachment. This powerful tool is a game-changer for handling cargo that regular cranes simply can’t handle. We’re talking loose scrap metal, heavy industrial debris, and massive, awkwardly shaped oversized loads.
Even better? You don’t just use it on one vehicle. The Magnet Gripper can be outfitted across your existing heavy-machinery fleet, including:
STS Cranes (Ship-to-Shore)
MHC Cranes (Mobile Harbour)
Reach Stackers
RMG Cranes (Rail-Mounted Gantry)
Straddle Carriers
What’s Packed in the ‘Deep Waters’ Expansion?
Saber Interactive isn’t skimping on the content here. The DLC heavily expands the core management and mechanical gameplay with a suite of new objectives:
1 Brand-New Campaign Mission: Navigate the delicate aftermath of the ship disaster, uncover forgotten port history, and steer Port Wake back toward international glory.
12 Fresh Jobs: Put your precision skills to the test. You’ll be packing metal scraps into compressed cubes, manoeuvring oversized cargo, and dealing with entirely new logistics chains.
New Infrastructure Upgrades: Invest your hard-earned cash back into the wharf to scale your business and manage the influx of new cargo types.
How to Get It
If you’ve been loving the therapeutic (and highly precise) gameplay loop of Docked since its launch earlier this year, adding this to your library is a no-brainer.
Pricing & Bundles:
Free Update: If you already own the Docked Deluxe Edition or purchased the “New Horizons” Expansion Pack, the Deep Waters DLC is waiting for you right now as a free download.
Standalone Options: You can grab the New Horizons Pack (which includes Deep Waters and a future upcoming DLC) for £12.99 / $14.99.
Whether you play on PC, PS5, or Xbox Series X|S, it’s time to boot up your rigs, fire up the diesel engines, and show the world that a little deep water won’t stop a master operator.

Asobo Studio and Focus Entertainment are pulling us back into the beautifully grim world of the Macula, but this time, things look a little different. Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy has officially locked in its August 27, 2026,release date, and pre-orders are now live across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
If you loved the emotional, rat-infested journeys of Amicia and Hugo, you’ll want to pay close attention. Resonance is shifting the timeline, the gameplay, and the protagonist, promising a fresh, action-heavy direction for the franchise.
Here is everything you need to know about what’s changing, what to expect, and why secure your copy early.
A New Hero and a Dual-Timeline Twist
Stepping away from the de Rune siblings, Resonance serves as a prequel set 15 years before the events of A Plague Tale: Requiem. This time, players take control of Sophia, the fierce, fan-favourite smuggler and plunderer.
Leaving the war-torn landscapes of medieval France behind, Sophia’s journey takes her to her childhood roots on the mysterious Minotaur’s Island (Crete). She is on a desperate quest to uncover her family’s dark connection to the ancient history of the Prima Macula.
What Makes Resonance Different?
More Action, Less Hiding: While previous games focused heavily on stealth and evasion, Sophia is a hardened fighter. The gameplay pivots toward dynamic, violent melee combat, complete with parries and lethal finishing moves.
Time-Bending Mechanics: The game introduces a dual-timeline feature. Players will actively shift between Sophia’s Middle Ages and the ancient Minoan era, where actions taken in the past will directly warp and echo into the present battles.
Mythological Puzzles: Using a stolen Minoan sphere, you’ll manipulate light—a force woven into the island by Daedalus himself—to solve intricate environmental puzzles.
Pre-Order Bonuses: The Heritage Pack
Securing your pre-order early doesn’t just guarantee your day-one spot on the island; it also bags you some exclusive digital goodies. Pre-ordering on any platform unlocks The Heritage Pack DLC, which includes:
The Minoan Sword: A unique, lore-rich weapon for Sophia.
Alec’s Pendant: An exclusive in-game cosmetic accessory.
A 30+ Page In-Game Artbook: Giving you a digital peek behind the scenes of Asobo’s gorgeous world design.

With its blend of historical myth, aggressive new combat mechanics, and a brilliant soundtrack once again composed by Olivier Derivière, Resonance is shaping up to be one of the biggest atmospheric hits of the year.
Are you ready to face whatever is lurking in the depths of the labyrinth? Head over to your platform’s storefront to secure your copy before August rolls around.
