LIFE IS STRANGE: REUNIONIS NOW AVAILABLE ON PC, PLAYSTATION 5 AND XBOX SERIES X | S

Experience the Emotional Conclusion of Max and Chloe’s Saga

SYDNEY (March 27, 2026) – Today, SQUARE ENIX® launched LIFE IS STRANGE: REUNION, the latest entry in the critically acclaimed narrative adventure franchise LIFE IS STRANGE. The game is now available for PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X | S and PC via Steam® and Microsoft Store on Windows.

Developed by Deck Nine Games, LIFE IS STRANGE: REUNION is the emotional conclusion to Max Caulfield and Chloe Price’s time-traveling saga. After 11 years, Max and Chloe reunite to solve another timeline-spanning mystery, this time to stop a raging inferno from destroying Max’s beloved Caledon University. For the first time, players will step into the shoes of both heroines during the same game and use each character’s unique abilities to solve puzzles, collect information and save as any people as they can.

In LIFE IS STRANGE: REUNION, players will once again visit Caledon University, where Max Caulfield works as a photography teacher. Returning from a weekend away, Max finds her beloved Caledon ablaze, as a raging inferno destroys the hallowed grounds and ends the lives of Max’s friends, students and faculty alike. Max only escapes the devastation due to her Rewind power – returning from the original LIFE IS STRANGE – a supernatural ability that lets her reverse time.

That’s when Chloe Price arrives at Caledon, much to Max’s surprise: a shocking repercussion of Max’s merging of the timelines at the end of LIFE IS STRANGE: DOUBLE EXPOSURE. Haunted by nightmares of a past she never lived, and with her grip on reality unravelling, Chloe needs Max’s help.

Players will use Max’s Rewind power to undo and redo decisions, change the course of conversations and manipulate the environment to solve four-dimensional puzzles, and use Chloe’s Backtalk ability, quick wits, and take-no-prisoners attitude to sway key suspects – and go where Max can’t.

This game builds on all the character-led, grounded storytelling for which the LIFE IS STRANGE series is known, with meaningful choices that affect the outcome of a dramatic and surprising narrative – all culminating in an epic climax that serves as a finale to the Max and Chloe saga.

LIFE IS STRANGE: REUNION is now available on Xbox Series X | S consoles, PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and Windows Store.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Cost of Hope Expansion Launching Summer 2026

The first major story expansion for Heart of Chornobyl is coming soon to PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5.

KYIV, UKRAINE March 26, 2026S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Cost of Hope, the first major expansion for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, is coming to Xbox Series X|S, Xbox Cloud Gaming, PC, and PlayStation 5 in Summer 2026.

Step into a fresh expedition across the Zone — a massive nonlinear expansion packed with dozens of hours of gameplay. Expect haunting stories, twisted characters, and that same heavy atmosphere of decay… with just a flicker of hope breaking through.

It’s time to step into a new chapter of a well-known conflict. Duty, one of the oldest factions, sees the Zone as a threat that must be contained and destroyed. On the other side, Freedom believes it’s a gift — something to explore and harness for the greater good. For a time, this tension was held together by a fragile peace. But deals like that rarely last.

In Cost of Hope, players once again take on the role of Skif, the protagonist of the core game, as he navigates events unfolding alongside Heart of Chornobyl. After installing the DLC, a signal on the PDA will trigger the new storyline as the game unfolds. As always, your choices shape what happens next — and the consequences could affect not just the Zone, but far beyond it.

Cost of Hope introduces two new regions to explore. Navigate the iconic Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant, once abandoned and locked away for decades, now calling stalkers back in. Traverse the Iron Forest’s maze-like paths and uncover uncharted locations along the way. Each region features its own hub, quests, and activities. New weapons and gear give Skif a fighting chance against mutants, anomalies, and other dangers that are lurking.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 expansions will be released in installments, with Cost of Hope serving as the middle chapter of the “second trilogy.” Together with a future story DLC — details of which will be revealed later — it will form a new, expansive narrative arc within the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. saga. More information on the Summer 2026 release will be shared soon.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 and Cost of Hope are being developed amid Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, which is ongoing. GSC Game World continues to support its homeland in every possible way.

Farmer’s Dynasty 2: Planting Season Is Almost Here, As The Anticipated Life Sim Will Enter Early Access On April 2

Get ready for a farming experience unlike any other and enjoy classic farming as well as cozy family life in two distinct eras

Oberhaching, Germany, March 26, 2026 – Springtime is seeding time. Make sure your machinery is in top condition, you have enough seeds in stock and everything is prepared for working the fields. Development team UMEO Studios and publisher Toplitz Productions are excited to announce that Farmer’s Dynasty 2 will be released on PC into Early Access on April 2, 2026.

The eclectic mix of classic open-world farming with a multitude of tools and machines across two distinct eras (present day and the 1960s), along with livestock, social and romantic interactions, forestry, extensive farm renovation as well as family life, gives you ultimate freedom.

Earn a living as a crop farmer, focus on livestock, concentrate on vegetables or become a beekeeper. These are only a few of the ways how you can make a living in the open world of Green Thorn Valley. Of course, you can mix and match as you like. You could even add a sprinkle of farm flipping, home improvement and interior design, once you begin exploring the deep crafting system or start buying property, renovating it and reselling it for a hefty profit.

Not to mention the social and romantic challenges a newcomer to this rural village must face. Become friends with your neighbors, help them with their needs and experience how your decisions impact the future. Try to find the love of your life, raise a family and establish a farming dynasty.

Features

  • Build your Dynasty
    Renovate old buildings, cultivate your fields, and raise animals. Use tractors and tools from different eras — from vintage classics to high-tech machines. Grow crops, run your business, and build a thriving farm empire that lasts for generations.
  • Farm Life, Love And Community
    Meet your neighbors, help them with their problems, and earn their trust. Side quests and social events bring the village to life and help grow your business and reputation. Find love, start a family, and watch your dynasty flourish through time.
  • Realistic Seasons And Weather
    Work with nature, not against it. Dynamic seasons, day-night cycles, and weather systems shape your farm life. Plant in spring, harvest in autumn, and when winter arrives, clear your paths with the snow plow to keep your farm running through the coldest days.
  • Make It Your Home
    Decorate your house, garden, and farm to your taste. Adopt pets, keep bees, or simply enjoy the peaceful rhythm of country life. Pass everything you’ve built to the next generation. Your legacy never ends.
