What’s New in NBA 2K27

• Gameplay – Overhauled, Balanced, and Driven by Skill: NBA 2K27 overhauls both ends of the floor, powered by ProPLAY®. New offensive tools give players the creative freedom to separate from defenders, from step-through up-and-unders to a fully customizable dribbling suite. On the other end, defensive stoppers will experience redesigned hands-up defence, an overhauled shot contest system, expanded defensive cutoffs, and a new collision system while a revamped Takeover system and smarter AI bring every possession to life. Philadelphia 76ers’ guard Tyrese Maxey and Gameplay Director Mike Wang detail the latest gameplay improvements in the NBA 2K27 Gameplay Courtside Report Video.
• Welcome to the First Co-ed City: For the first time, players can build a female MyPLAYER to take to The City. Now male and female MyPLAYERs compete side by side across every multiplayer mode in The City – with all MyPLAYERs built on the exact same framework for on-court performance parity. Inspired by community feedback, The REC, The Theater, Ante-Up, and Seasonal Parks all feature brand-new environments. The REC now rotates between five distinct venues each game, a legendary court joins Street Kings, and new Daily Rivals mode puts daily standings on the line. The City also adds the all-new Crew HQ, a dedicated home base for squads to practice, ranked competition, private games, Crew progression, and seasonal tournaments, and Casual Corner, an optional rookie-friendly hub for players to find their footing.

Today, 2K and Gearbox Software unveiled an in-depth look at Loveless the Hacker, the all-new Vault Hunter arriving in Borderlands 4 on September 10 as paid DLC. The latest Gearbox DevCast explores Loveless’ backstory, combat style, and design philosophy, with Game Designer Ryan Bailey detailing her Trait, Action Skills, and three distinct skill trees.

Loveless the Hacker’s Origin and Character Short
An ex-Anshin hacker turned assassin, Loveless has achieved a symbiotic fusion of biological and digital power to become a superior lifeform. Her psyche is shared with a digital virus of her own creation, which can digistruct into a physical Wyrm form to act as a deadly extension of her shared, perfection-seeking will.

The new Loveless Character Short, “Uncontainable,” spotlights the shared consciousness of Loveless and her viral alter-ego Wyrm as she recounts a violent dive into the digiverse in pursuit of precious Vault data.

Loveless the Hacker Gameplay Overview
In the Loveless Gameplay Overview, witness Loveless throw her Plague Star shuriken to slice through mobs while spreading a withering Contagion, outsmart opponents with the stealthy misdirection of her Visual Paradox Nexus (or VPN for short) that can cloak her and spawns a decoy, and sic her Malignant Construct on targets to eradicate them with its tail whips and toxic breath.

Loveless’ aggressive, agile kit specialises in Critical Hits, Status Effects, and devastating Corrosive and Radiation damage. Her Trait, RAM, charges whenever she scores Critical Hits or inflicts Status Effects. A full RAM bar empowers her next melee strike with amped-up damage as she wields her Techno-Kagi Claws, while its charge level also boosts gun damage.
Each Action Skill gains added utility from low-cooldown Functions and high-impact Executables, creating fast, flexible combat loops built around precision, mobility, and relentless aggression. Full gameplay details and Loveless’ complete skill trees are available on the Loveless Vault Hunter page.

Upcoming Version 1.10 Content Details
Loveless arrives September 10 alongside Version 1.10, Story Pack 2: FL4K and the Last Resort, and Bounty Pack 5: Amara and the Vile Shadows. Version 1.10 will also raise the maximum level cap by 10 levels and introduce balance adjustments for various Vault Hunters.

Players who own Borderlands 4 Super Deluxe Edition are automatically granted access to all content from the Bounty Pack Bundle (Bounty Packs 2, 3, 4, and 5) and Vault Hunter Pack (Story Packs 1 and 2), while Borderlands 4 Deluxe Edition grants the Bounty Pack Bundle. Bounty Packs and Story Packs are also available for individual purchase.

Everyone’s welcome to join the chaos in the all-new four-player co-op mode

TUCSON, Ariz. – 4 Sept 2026 – POSTAL 4: No Regerts, the societal-norms-destroying open-world first-person shooter in Running With Scissors’ infamous franchise enjoyed by millions and targeted by desperate politicians, can now be experienced in full co-op mode on PC via Steam today.

Embrace chaos in the bizarre sandbox of Edensin, this time with a squad of fellow renegades. Play through the entire campaign as a team of up to four custom POSTAL Dudes, picking out an identity, wardrobe, and voice – with options that include the iconic original voice actor Rick Hunter, Corey Cruise of Half-Life: Through the City, Zack Ward of Rise of the Tomb Raider, and the legendary Jon St. John of Duke Nukem fame. 

Try to hack it together in a normal everyday 9-to-5 job – until the effects of your decisions, comedic catastrophes, and a truly over-the-top arsenal of weapons combine into classic POSTAL-style mayhem. Produce pandemonium in any desired playstyle with complete freedom. Be the pacifist or the aggressive savior (trust us, you’ll like aggressive more!)

Earn cash from challenges and side gigs as bidet installers or help Americans flee to Mexico to find jobs. Use the team’s combined wits to decide how to approach each situation: will encounters be resolved peacefully, or will the POSTAL Dudes bust out the legendary Spurt’N’Squirt 9000? The town is in the palm of the POSTAL Dudes’ hands. 

Edensin is your playground. Weaponize public urination, fling boomerang machetes, or lay down the law with the quad-barreled Fournicator shotgun. Top it all off with signature POSTAL power-ups and don’t forget the dog treats if you’d rather let an army of attack dogs do the dirty work.

“Our community has requested a co-op mode for POSTAL 4 for a long time, and we can finally say we not only got it right, but it’s better than ever,” said Vince Desi, founder of Running With Scissors. “With a world gone mad, the time to piss your way to freedom is now upon us!”

POSTAL 4: No Regerts is currently available for $19.99 on PC via Steam, GOG, and Green Man Gaming, including language support for English, Polish, Russian, Simplified Chinese, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese, and Turkish. For more on Running With Scissors’ beloved series, check out the official website, follow the mayhem on X/Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, and join the amazing POSTAL community on Discord.

Kill a God. Get Graded On It. SoulQuest is out now on Nintendo Switch, bringing its Celtic combo combat to console for the first time

[Argentina] – September 3rd, 2026 – Nearly every hack-and-slash asks whether you survived the fight. SoulQuest asks how you looked doing it. Out now on Nintendo Switch, the side-scrolling spectacle fighter from SoulBlade Studio, published by indie.io, scores every encounter on a scale from a shameful F to the coveted SSS, which turns a room full of enemies into something closer to a performance than an obstacle. This is the game’s first appearance on console, following a Steam launch in May that has held a Very Positive player rating ever since.

Reaching SSS means never repeating yourself. Light and heavy attacks chain into dozens of freeform combinations, each animation flowing into the next without a break, and magic and screen-clearing ultimates open the routes that pure swordplay cannot. The inputs are simple enough to understand in a minute. Stringing them into something the game will actually reward takes considerably longer, and the hardest difficulties exist for players who want the gods to be a genuine problem.

The reason Alys is fighting them at all is her husband. Gwydre was the mightiest knight in the world, and he still died when Cetonia burned, and the Celtic pantheon considered the matter closed. Alys did not. In the ruins she finds Abanus, a druid who tells her the dead can be reclaimed, but only by someone prepared to take that power from Morrigan, goddess of death, in person. The road there runs the length of the British Isles, and every god on it has to be dealt with individually. Those gods are drawn from Celtic folklore and Arthurian myth, and the whole thing is rendered in pixel art and scored with a medieval-inspired soundtrack.

SoulQuest is available now on Nintendo Switch for $19.99 USD, with a limited-time launch discount of 20%. It is also available on Steam.
