Team up with two new 5-star playable characters, Vesna and Vodyanitsa, for an intense showdown, and return to Liyue to celebrate the long-awaited Moonchase Festival!

SINGAPORE, September 12, 2026 — Global interactive entertainment brand HoYoverse announced today that Genshin Impact Version 7.1, “A Rekviem for the Underworld,” will launch on September 23. With the situation in Snezhnaya becoming increasingly dire, the nation is drawing up a new plan to stand against the Heavenly Principles. Meanwhile, the growing threat of Ronova, the Ruler of Death, is setting the stage for an inevitable showdown. Two new 5-star playable characters, Vesna and Vodyanitsa, will join the roster, bringing new ways to enhance Stellar Swirl reactions. Players will also return to Liyue for the long-awaited Moonchase Festival celebrations.

Check out Genshin Impact Version 7.1 trailer here:

In Version 7.1’s Archon Quest, the crisis in Snezhnaya continues to deepen. Players will finally come face-to-face with the Tsaritsa and uncover the true strategy behind her years-long effort to collect the Gnoses. Meanwhile, Ronova, the Ruler of Death, has used her authority to severely hinder Snezhnaya’s progress, bringing an inevitable showdown ever closer. The arrival of Rhinedottir, the Ruler of Life, only adds further uncertainty to the unfolding situation. Players will head to the front lines and fight alongside Snezhnaya in a climactic battle against Ronova. The Ruler of Death will also appear as a new Weekly Boss, giving players the chance to confront her overwhelming power firsthand. Completing the new Archon Quest will grant Primogems ×620. Starting in Version 7.1, players can also take on special assignments issued by the Tsaritsa’s Confidential Secretary, helping handle matters both great and small while gaining deeper insight into the Tsaritsa’s approach to governing Snezhnaya.

Two new 5-star playable characters, Vesna and Vodyanitsa, will bring their own unique ways to enhance Stellar Swirl reactions. The youngest Commander in Druzhna history, Vesna is known for her unwavering loyalty to the Tsaritsa and joins the roster as a 5-star Anemo Sword wielder. In combat, she can convert Cryo Swirl reactions into Stellar Swirl reactions. Using her Elemental Skill and other abilities, Vesna can summon Spirit Blades and gain a certain amount of “Sword Essence.” She can then consume “Sword Essence” with a special Elemental Skill to command the Spirit Blades to strike enemies. When they attack near a Stellar Vortex, their attacks are treated as Stellar Swirl reaction DMG. Her Elemental Burst summons another wave of Spirit Blades to deal AoE Anemo DMG while restoring “Sword Essence.” Vesna also offers a unique way to explore the open world. As a Vila, she is able to take flight during exploration. Players can also experience a special anecdote featuring Vesna to unlock a unique appearance for her sword spirit companion.

Vodyanitsa is the Prima Donna of Snezhnograd’s Korolevskiy Troupe, as well as a kind-hearted Water Imp and 5-star Hydro Catalyst wielder. In combat, she can transform into her Water Imp form and sustain her song through her Elemental Skill, continuously healing the active character, reducing enemies’ Hydro and Cryo RES, and boosting the active character’s ATK. In this form, she can also move swiftly through the water. Her song further empowers Stellar Vortices, reducing enemies’ Anemo RES and increasing Stellar Swirl reaction DMG. Her Elemental Burst carries her voice across the battlefield, dealing AoE Hydro DMG. While exploring the open world, Vodyanitsa can remain in her Water Imp form and move freely even outside the water. Players can learn more about her through a story featuring Vodyanitsa and obtain a unique appearance for her microphone as a reward.

In the first phase of Version 7.1 Event Wishes will feature Vesna and Vodyanitsa, with Skirk and Escoffier returning in the second phase.

The long-awaited Moonchase Festival returns to Liyue after five years, welcoming players back for another celebration! Yilong Wharf has been transformed for the festivities, but beneath the celebrations lies a mystery from the past that even Zhongli and Zibai have yet to unravel. The festival will also introduce three new mini-games inspired by Liyue thaumaturges, with a variety of rewards up for grabs, including a new 4-star Sword.

Back in Snezhnaya, players can join local children in a seasonal snowball event and take on a host of unusual foes. Meanwhile in Natlan, a tournament prediction event will invite players to predict the final results for 16 competing teams over several days of matches. A variety of rewards will be available for completing these events.

Miliastra Wonderland will also see a range of new updates in Version 7.1. The lobby will be refreshed with an autumn-themed look inspired by traditional motifs such as osmanthus blossoms and the moon, and players can unlock an elegant cosmetic set for free by completing the related event. A special festival event will offer even more rewards, including an exclusive headpiece. The editor is also being expanded with new controls that support client-side scripting, along with collaborative editing tools that give players even more ways to create and experiment.

The new version will also mark Genshin Impact’s sixth anniversary with players around the world, bringing a generous lineup of anniversary rewards. For the first time, players who complete the latest Archon Quest will be able to choose one event-exclusive 5-star character for free from a select lineup at any point during Version 7.1. Players can also select one standard 5-star character for free, along with Primogems ×1,600, Intertwined Fate ×10, and more anniversary rewards.

Genshin Impact Version 7.1 launches on September 23, bringing players into a pivotal moment for Snezhnaya! With cross-progression and Co-Op functions, players can enjoy their adventure across PlayStation®, Xbox, PC, Android, and iOS. The game has been rated T for Teen by ESRB on PS5, Xbox, PC, and Google Play, and 12+ on iOS.

About Super Subatomic Games

Super Subatomic Games is an independent developer based in Las Vegas that has been active since 2022. Super Subatomic Games has released a VR game on meta Oculus as well as some mobile utility apps.

The developers have decades of experience making games for companies such as EA, Zynga, Sega, and Aristocrat.

Oduvan Games releases its first major PC title after two years of development, combining turn-based tactical combat, open-sector exploration, and a nonlinear story shaped by a sentient alien Symbiont.

Independent developer Oduvan Games announced the release of Frontier: Path of Shadows, a hard sci-fi turn-based tactical RPG now available on PC via Steam.

After two years of development, Frontier: Path of Shadows marks the studio’s first major PC release. Players follow Jay and the crew of the Simurgh through a fractured corner of outer space, where rival factions compete for influence in the aftermath of the Interstellar War.

Along the way, players will explore planets and dangerous regions of space, take on contracts and side missions, fight tactical battles, make difficult choices, and uncover the mystery of the strange alien being connected to Jay — the Symbiont.

Tactical Combat Where Positioning Matters
Combat in Frontier is built around a network of interconnected tactical points rather than a traditional grid. Different positions can provide advantages or inflict negative effects, while movement abilities allow players to push enemies into dangerous locations and turn the battlefield itself into a weapon.

Each crew member has unique abilities, with new skills opening additional tactical combinations. Weapons and equipment come in different rarities, encouraging experimentation with squad builds and loadouts.
Battles also feature changing environments, enemy compositions, and procedural conditions that force players to adapt.

For those willing to take greater risks, Frontier includes a roguelite extraction-style combat loop: win a battle, push deeper for better rewards, or leave before losing what you have earned.

Explore an Open Sector
Outside combat, players are free to choose where the crew travels next.

The sector includes planets, nebulae, asteroid fields, wrecks, other ships, contracts, side quests, random encounters, and resources. Players can follow the main story or spend time exploring and taking on optional activities.

Resources can also be handed over to different factions to increase reputation, giving players another way to shape their relationships with the groups competing for power across the sector.

A Story Shaped by the Symbiont
At the heart of Frontier: Path of Shadows is a nonlinear story filled with quests, faction conflicts, discoveries, and difficult decisions.

Path of Shadows is the first chapter of a larger Frontier narrative. Its main story reaches a conclusion, while introducing characters, mysteries, and conflicts intended to continue in future chapters.
Jay is bonded to an aurorite Symbiont, a rare form of sentient crystalline life coveted by powerful forces across the sector.

But the Symbiont is not simply another tool. It watches how the player behaves. Decisions made in conversations, combat, exploration, and interactions with the world gradually shape its tendencies and the way it responds to Jay.

This relationship can influence major story developments and help determine which endings players reach.

What Comes Next
Oduvan Games plans to continue supporting Frontier: Path of Shadows after release with fixes, updates, balance adjustments, and improvements based on player feedback.
The studio is also considering:

• additional storefronts, including the Epic Games Store;
• new combat encounters, side quests, and random events;
• future chapters and stories in the Frontier universe.

The story of Path of Shadows may reach its conclusion, but several questions remain.
Why is Jay able to bond with the Symbiont?
What did the Argonauts discover on the Path of Shadows?
And what exactly is Khan hiding?

Frontier: Path of Shadows is available now on PC via Steam.

Thrive on alien-funded fortune with up to four players in a massive underground world

SHENZHEN, China- Sept. 11, 2026 – DIG Raiders: Anomaly Extraction, a twisted mining co-op adventure blending exploration, extraction, and extraterrestrials from developer Soda Game Studio and publisher Infini Fun, uncovers alien treasures on PC via Steam today for $9.99 with a 30% launch discount.

Staking a claim on digging rights at an alien crash site put a catastrophic hole in the DIG Raiders’ wallets, so get ready to make that money back and more with a little help from friends! Assemble a crew, dig to the heart of the crash site, and plunder out-of-this-world riches, all while fending off visitors from beyond.

Who says miners can only wear overalls and wield pickaxes? Dress up in one of seven hilarious animal costumes packed with stat-altering effects while completing wacky tasks to rake in cash. Venture into the great unknown within nine distinct underground levels: treasure hunt in a seemingly robbed bank vault, confront anomalous creatures in the Backrooms, and bounce between platforms in futuristic space stations.

Survive alien onslaughts in a PvE story-focused mode, or engage in high-stakes 4v4 PvP to extract valuable loot, keeping it out of the hands of the opposing team. Spend hard-earned cash on otherworldly weaponry, always keeping a sharp eye out for aliens disguised as robots, mummies, or even crocodile men. Stay in cahoots with proximity voice chat to extract the most loot, outwit opponents, and thrive as the largest underground business.

Successfully extract enough of a fortune to construct a blood industry alien-friendly center that empowers every galactic species to maximize its productivity. Carefully plan out the blueprint and create automated assembly lines. Interact with residents in the marketplace to upgrade gear and supplies in the Military Shop, and sell precious loot in the Auction House to upgrade the base and turn it into a thriving business empire.

“DIG Raiders: Anomaly Extraction has implemented countless improvements based on the passionate feedback from all of you who’ve played our demo,” said Jeff Wu, CEO and Director, Soda Game Studio. “With the refined Story Mode and Industrial Zone, brave miners can dig up the richest of valuables with friends today. Do you have what it takes to breach an alien crash site and mine up all their precious loot?”

DIG Raiders: Anomaly Extraction is available now for $9.99 with a 30% launch discount for two weeks on PC via Steam, including language support for English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Portuguese, Korean, Italian, Danish, Indonesian, Turkish, Polish, Thai, Dutch, Vietnamese, Simplified and Traditional Chinese.

The update also expands item interactions, adjusts LMG balance, and brings JUJUTSU KAISEN collaboration content and new leaderboards.

EL SEGUNDO, CALIF. – SEPTEMBER 10, 2026 – KRAFTON, Inc. today announced Update 43.1 for PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS, introducing new ways to approach combat, movement and item use.

New Combat and Movement Actions: Update 43.1 adds a new kick action to unarmed combat. Players can use kicks to knock back other players or break certain objects, including windows and wooden doors. The update also allows players to use sidearms and throwables while on the water’s surface. Swimming and diving speeds have been increased by 25%, providing additional options when moving through water or engaging nearby enemies.

Expanded Item Interactions: Depending on the item, players can now pick it up and carry it directly or throw it to a teammate without first placing it in their inventory. Healing and boost items, along with certain deployable items, can also be used directly from the ground. These changes reduce unnecessary inventory management and make it easier for players to take action without interrupting the flow of a match.

LMG Balance Adjustments: Light Machine Guns (LMGs) have received additional balance adjustments based on gameplay data and player feedback collected since Update 42.3. The first LMG meta rotation had a greater impact on the overall gameplay environment than expected. This latest round of tuning adjusts aim speed, recoil, effectiveness against vehicles and world spawn rates while preserving the weapon class’s core strengths and characteristics.

JUJUTSU KAISEN Collaboration Content: Update 43.1 also brings new collaboration content inspired by the anime JUJUTSU KAISEN. The collaboration adds themed spaces and visual elements to selected areas of Erangel, bringing JUJUTSU KAISEN into regular matches.

New Leaderboards: A new Leaderboard menu has been added to Career. In addition to Ranked standings, players can view their rankings across a wider range of categories, including seasonal wins, kills by weapon and Clan XP.

Additional Updates: Additional updates include the return of Solo Deathmatch in Arcade, adjustments to boat durability and repair functionality, changes to parachute activation conditions, support for NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 and AMD FSR 4.1 on PC, the return of Rumble in a Duo format on PC, adjustments to character hit detection on console, and additional custom preset slots.

The tactical shooter’s signature body-camera perspective, close-quarters combat, and high-pressure multiplayer arrive in Fortnite today! 

Mumbai, India, Sept 11, 2026 – Nazara Technologies and Virstate announced the launch of Bodycam UEFN, the official Bodycam adaptation for Fortnite, developed under agreement with Reissad Studio and available to players worldwide starting today at 10:00 AM PDT / 1:00 PM EDT / 6:00 PM BST / 7:00 PM CEST.

Built by Virstate in Unreal Editor for Fortnite, and published by Nazara Technologies, Bodycam UEFN brings the franchise’s signature body-camera perspective, intense close-quarters combat, realistic atmosphere, and high-pressure multiplayer gameplay into Fortnite.

Players can join by searching for Bodycam in Fortnite Discover or by entering island code: 9784-3946-5466 

Built as an official expansion of the Bodycam universe, Bodycam UEFN is designed to introduce the franchise to new players while giving existing fans a new way to experience its tension, realism, and tactical combat. The project is not a replacement for the original Bodycam PC experience, but a free-to-play gateway into its world, created specifically for Fortnite’s ecosystem.

“Bodycam UEFN is Nazara’s first build inside Fortnite, and it is the first of many. Fortnite is now one of the largest discovery platforms in the world, and we intend to build there at scale,” said Nitish Mittersain, Founder & CEO at Nazara.  “Reissad has raised the bar with an experience that is raw, immersive, and visually stunning. Bringing Bodycam to Fortnite proves that UEFN is ready for premium-quality FPS experiences. It becomes the template for the IPs, original experiences, and partnerships we bring to this ecosystem next.”

At launch, Bodycam UEFN features Russian Building, one of the most recognizable environments from the original game, recreated for Fortnite with a focus on authenticity, atmosphere, visual fidelity, and fast tactical encounters. The map is designed for high-pressure close-quarters combat where positioning, reflexes, sound awareness, and precision determine the outcome of every fight.

Bodycam UEFN launches with three multiplayer modes:

• Free For All – Every player fights alone in fast-paced matches where survival depends on awareness, accuracy, and reaction time.
• Team Deathmatch – Two teams compete to reach the score limit first in squad-based combat inspired by classic competitive shooters.
• Gun Game – Players progress through an evolving arsenal by securing eliminations, racing to reach the final weapon and claim victory.

The experience also includes long-term progression systems, allowing players to climb ranks, unlock weapons, earn rewards, and pursue competitive goals through regular play.

Bodycam UEFN is planned as a live experience, with future updates expected to introduce additional maps inspired by the original Bodycam, new weapons and equipment, new rewards and unlockables, seasonal updates, community events, and additional gameplay modes.

With Bodycam UEFN, Nazara aims to push the expectations of what players can experience inside Fortnite and demonstrate how major gaming IPs can use UEFN as a serious platform for franchise expansion.

“Bodycam has always been built with the ambition to stay ahead of technology rather than wait for the industry to move first,” said Luca Dassier, Studio Director at Reissad. “Partnering with Nazara Technologies and Virstate is what makes this expansion possible. They lead it, they own it, and they bring the publishing and development strength to build Bodycam a genuine home on Fortnite. For us, this partnership is about preparing for the future of Unreal Engine 6 by gaining hands on experience with Verse, the programming language expected to play a major role in its ecosystem. And at the same time, Bodycam on PC remains the complete and undivided focus of our studio. This partnership is precisely what allows both projects to move forward at full speed.”

With more than 150 vehicles available at launch, ranging from iconic Hot Wheels™ Originals to legendary real-world automotive brands, players can expand their garage by completing races, taking on special events, and defeating the racing crews across the islands as they compete to earn the Rush Master title. Four distinct vehicle classes — Drifters, Speeders, Titans, and Versatiles — offer unique handling and feature a perk system that shapes performance and playstyle, encouraging players to experiment with different setups. This way, players can build a Rush Squad ready for any challenge: a four-vehicle team featuring their preferred Hot Wheels™ from each class. With a quick-switch button, they can instantly change vehicles while exploring the islands, ensuring they always have the right ride for every activity.

Customisation is at the heart of the experience, with extensive options available through Sticker and Livery editors, including wheel customisation, boost visual effects, and personalised boost and dash sound effects.

Creativity extends beyond the garage thanks to the Track Builder, which allows players to design unique routes that blend with the game world. The adaptive ground-snapping system lets track modules follow the terrain, while action markers define virtual opponents’ behaviour, including racing lines, acceleration, and braking points. With creations shareable across supported platforms*, the Track Builder offers endless opportunities for players to create, share, and compete with the wider community.

HOT WHEELS Infinite Rush also features multiplayer options, with full cross-play* support for online challenges and local split-screen** for up to four players, giving players multiple ways to compete across competitive modes, leaderboards, and asynchronous challenges.

HOT WHEELS Infinite Rush is available now on PlayStation®5, XBOX Series X|S, Nintendo Switch™ 2, ROG XBOX Ally, ROG XBOX Ally X, and PC via Steam, Microsoft Store, and Epic Games Store.

*Nintendo Switch 2 does not support cross-share or cross-play, so it is limited to its own platform.

**Nintendo Switch™ 2 will have 6 competitors per race
