New behind-the-scenes episode breaks down the artistic evolution behind the game’s decopunk noir aesthetic

Issaquah, WA, USA – March 24th, 2026 – Seismic Squirrel today released the fifth behind-the-scenes developer diary for Aether & Iron, offering players a closer look at how the team defined the game’s distinctive visual style. Titled “Creating the Visual Identity of the Game”, the video features Tyler Whitney, Narrative Lead at Seismic Squirrel, as he walks through the artistic journey that shaped the look and feel of the studio’s upcoming narrative-driven RPG.

In the episode, Whitney explains how the team started with a foundation of 1930s New York and a noir tone, but explored several visual directions before landing on the final look. Early concepts leaned more heavily into steampunk influences, with sci-fi elements, robots, and a more stylized, anime-inspired character design.

As the project evolved, the team shifted toward a more grounded, alternate-history aesthetic, drawing inspiration from classic illustration and pulp comics. The result is a distinctive visual style that balances grit with a bold, modern edge – helping define Aether & Iron’s unique decopunk noir identity.

Aether & Iron launches on Steam on March 31, 2026, featuring full English voice acting and text localization support for English, Spanish (Spain & Latin America), French, German, Polish, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese – Play the demo and wishlist Aether & Iron now on Steam!  

About Aether & Iron: 
Set in an alternate 1930s New York transformed into a vertical city by the discovery of “aether”, a key component to newfound anti-gravitational technology, Aether & Iron follows Gia, a smuggler navigating crime syndicates, political conspiracies, and fragile alliances. Players shape Gia’s story through meaningful decisions, with every choice influencing relationships, outcomes and the fate of the city itself. The game features writing talent with credits on Mass Effect, Far Cry, and Sovereign Syndicate, with an original score composed by two-time Grammy Award winner Christopher Tin and Grammy nominee Alex Williamson, best known for their work on the Civilization series.

Publisher and developer GIANTS Software expands its lineup of virtual farming technology with a new partnership: Vredo, the renowned specialist in overseeding and slurry injection, is now part of Farming Simulator 25, alongside the return of Evers Agro. The Vredo Pack includes 12 state-of-the-art machines, and introduces wild boar roaming the land, keeping farmers on their toes.

Overseeding to Restore Grassland

Traditional Dutch manufacturer Vredo enables virtual farmers to fight the degradation of grassland and restore fields and their yield potential. High-tech machines like the Vredo Agri Twin 580, Agri 290, and Agri Air 290, all part of the new DZ5 seeder generation, allow players to overseed.

Slurry Injection for Higher Yield

Vredo’s slurry injectors do not just restore yield, they increase yield and crop quality by improving soil nutrition and efficiency. Machines like the Vredo VT7138, a high-capacity, three-axle, self-propelled slurry tanker, injectors from the Vredo Profi series, and the mounted Evers Agro Toric 48-672 help farmers take fertilization strategies to the next level.

Protecting Fields from Boar Damage

Alongside new machinery and yield-improvement techniques, the Vredo Pack introduces a new threat farmers need to watch out for: In addition to existing natural events like twisters and hail, wild boar can cause crop damage unless they are distracted. Managing this risk reduces yield impact and adds another layer of responsibility in protecting the harvest.

Farming Simulator 25 is available for PC, Mac, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S. The Vredo Pack was released separately today on digital channels. A Year 2 Season Pass is available and includes the Vredo Pack, a bonus tractor, and additional content to be released in 2026 – fans save up to 30% compared to getting the content separately. GIANTS Software will also continue to release free content updates and user-generated content on the official ModHub. Visit the official Farming Simulator website.

The founder of a leading charity helping people with severe physical disabilities play video games says accessible technology is transforming lives by reconnecting players with friends, family and everyday social experiences

March 24th, 2026 – Speaking on the latest episode of the Good Game Club podcast, SpecialEffect founder and CEO Dr Mick Donegan explains how adaptive controllers, eye-tracking technology and personalised gaming set-ups are enabling people with disabilities to play games for the first time.

SpecialEffect are a “catalyst for change,” helping the global games industry to embrace accessibility, with companies such as Xbox and PlayStation introducing adaptive controllers and more inclusive game design in recent years. Now, they are breaking new ground by leading the way on making iOS and Android games more accessible with their mobile versions of their free to play ‘Eye Gaze Games’. “I like to think that we’re just part of this general move to be as inclusive as possible,” says Donegan.

For many players supported by SpecialEffect, access to gaming means far more than entertainment. It restores independence, connection and the ability to participate in shared experiences with friends and family. One player with a progressive condition sent a message to SpecialEffect after the charity helped him return to playing video games with his brother: “Dear SpecialEffect, I’ve just beat my brother five-one at FIFA. Thank you for giving me my life back.”

Donegan founded SpecialEffect after years working with children with physical disabilities and discovering that many were excluded from a major part of modern childhood: playing video games with siblings and friends. “These children were missing out socially,” he says. “They were missing out on the opportunity to learn. They were missing out on the opportunity to face challenges, to solve problems.” SpecialEffect now works with people around the world to create personalised gaming set-ups tailored to each player’s abilities.

“It’s looking at the person, looking at their abilities and not at their disabilities; it’s not what they can’t do, but what they can do,” Donegan explains.

“This is a global challenge,” says Donegan, whose charity received a Special Award at the BAFTA Games Awards in 2024. “There’s over a billion people with disabilities across the planet, and a significant number of those have physical disabilities.”

Good Game Club builds on the success of Jude Ower and Mathias Norvig’s bestselling book Gaming for Good, bringing global voices together to explore how games can be a positive force for people and the planet. The podcast is supported by a strategic partnership with Tencent – together, they share the ambition to highlight the positive impact that gameplay can have on individuals and communities.

The Good Game Club podcast featuring Dr Mick Donegan is released on March 24.

BORDEAUX, France – March 23, 2026 – Wartales, the medieval open-world tactical RPG with more than 1MM units sold from developer Shiro Games, conducts chaotic urban combat in its next DLC. Contract: Fires in the Capital comes to PC via Steam on Thursday, April 30, 2026. 

Rally the warband and set out for Isandrin, the imperial capital of Edoran, where tensions between the Legion and the Empire have reached a boiling point. Large-scale unrest threatens to consume the city and the beating heart of the Empire’s power. Every decision could either help pull the metropolis back from the brink or be the tipping point in its descent into anarchy. 

Isandrin is a completely different environment from the frontiers Wartales mercenaries typically explore, and combat is only one approach. Tracking down brigands, destroying propaganda, building support for civic institutions, and even performing as a bard all have far-reaching effects, influencing everything from the prices of provisions to the public mood.

Take on new urban battle scenarios reflecting the state of the capital. Stop fleeing criminals before they escape and further destabilize the city, escort vulnerable supply convoys through waves of enemy reinforcements, and fight in the burning streets while rescuing trapped civilians – all in a constantly evolving medieval metropolis.

“Wartales players have always been interested in learning more about the Legion and the inner workings of the Empire, and Contract: Fires in the Capital is sending them straight into the heart of it,” said Quentin Lapeyre, Game Director at Shiro Games. “This is a new perspective for Wartales, where we’ve always been on the fringes of the known world. Isandrin is a more systemic and reactive environment, and the new Chaos system means every choice players make could potentially impact the city’s entire population.”

Wartales – Contract: Fires in the Capital launches on Thursday, April 30, 2026, on PC via Steam for $12.99 | €10.99 | £12.99. The DLC includes English, French, German, Spanish (Spain), Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Simplified Chinese, and Korean language support.
