Sydney, Australia, March 6th 2026: Wreckfest 2 is back with its biggest Early Access update yet! Two new tracks provide the perfect opportunity to test not one, not two, but three brand-new vehicles. And while the American Muscle car and the Japanese coupe, let’s just call it the Tiny Thing, are great additions, they’re not quite as special as… drumroll… the school bus! Yep, that’s right: Wreckfest 2 isn’t just known for the wildest car destruction in video games ever, but also for the craziest vehicles. That’s why the bus is back.

The two new tracks couldn’t be more different. First, in “Waypoint Race,” Wreckfest 2 introduces a new type of map to the franchise. Instead of racing laps around a compact circuit, this course takes place in a desolate canyon and lets players race from start to finish — if they can make it. And Track #2, Dalsbanen, is a rallycross track designed for hardcore racers, weaving through green fields, majestic trees, and peaceful ponds.

On the feature side, the first iteration of the car upgrade system has been implemented, letting players modify their cars, add better parts, and tune their rides to match their preferences. This initial version includes engine parts, gearboxes, suspensions, differentials, and many more — and with even more upgrades coming in future updates.

Because Wreckfest 2 is all about the authentic look and feel of banger racing, cars now accumulate dirt and grime as races go on, picking up debris from every surface — so when you cross the finish line, your car will look like it’s survived a true battle.

Features:

Unmatched racing experience

• – More and more tracks & arenas will be added during the Early Access phase –

Awesome & customisable cars

• Forget pristine supercars: Our cars are old, dented and patched together. Each of them tells a story, and you can tell your own by customising your ride. Over the course of early access, more and more customisation options will be added to the game. They will not only unlock your creative desires, but also contain new armour and component types that support certain playstyles.
• – Later during Early Access, you can also share your designs with other racers and wreckers! –

Fully revamped game modes

• Launching into early access with the base game modes of Racing, Derby and multiplayer mode. During the Early Access phase, we will add a completely revamped career mode that adapts to your individual playstyle and guides you on your journey to become a true champion! For online racers, there will be a new skill-based matchmaking system and server queues coming as well!

Challenges

• Another highlight during the Early Access phase will be special challenges, putting you behind the steering wheel of unconventional vehicles that were definitely never supposed to end up on a racetrack! Various bite-sized scenarios will keep you hooked as you battle for the highest scores.

Mod Support

• During the Early Access phase, mod support will be added so you can really mess with this game by installing various mods from the Steam Workshop.

One mind. One machine. Total battlefield control

March 6, 2026 — The next chapter in the Foundations series from World of Tanks: HEAT has arrived. Titled FOUNDATIONS: HUMAN-MACHINE SYNERGY, this latest installment explores the dynamic relationship between Agents and their tanks, and how that union defines victory. Discover how coordination, customization, and powerful Ultimate abilities redefine the battlefield.

Agents are the center of every clash, turning strategy into action. More than mere vehicle operators, they are engineers of outcomes. Through upgrades, adjustments, and careful optimization, these machines fulfill their roles with their own distinct approaches to combat.

In HEAT, three distinct roles take to the battlefield:

• DEFENDER – anchors the frontline, absorbing damage and advancing with heavy firepower.
• ASSAULT – embodies speed and aggression, striking fast and repositioning before enemies can react.
• MARKSMAN – controls the battlefield from a distance, eliminating targets with calculated precision.

Each Agent commands up to two specialized tanks, each with its own special abilities. For instance, Hound’s AMX Tank can launch drones to identify targets and set them up for a homing missile strike. His alternate tank, the Leo, can project a decoy to fool the enemy and catch them off guard.

When the battle reaches its breaking point, Agents unleash their most devastating tool: Ultimate Abilities that can instantly take control of the match.

HEAT’s Ultimates are high-impact and designed to redefine the fight. Here are the three highlighted in this video:

• CONTRACTED STRIKES – Kent saturates the battlefield with a crushing “Hydra” rocket onslaught simultaneously hitting all enemies in his range.
• HUNTING TIME – Hound enters peak predator mode, chaining guided-missile eliminations to activate an instant cooldown.
• CREEPING BARRAGE – Chopper coordinates successive artillery blasts that pound large, targeted zones with devastating missile attacks.

These are the moments that flip the script and secure the win. More insights are on the way as the World of Tanks: HEAT Foundations series continues. Lock in your place on the battlefield — wishlist HEAT today. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2100280

About Titan Quest II

Return to the classic mythology-inspired setting of Titan Quest and go toe-to-toe with legendary monsters as you journey across a fantastical reimagining of ancient Greece. Nemesis, Goddess of Retribution, is out of control. She is corrupting the Threads of Fate and condemning all those who oppose her to eternal punishment – including you. Take up your weapon, fight alongside gods, and change fate itself to stop Nemesis, free those she’s punished, and weave your own epic tale.

A Land of Myths and Monsters

Embark on an adventure worthy of the epics that takes you from picturesque beaches, to serene Greek temples, to ruins haunted by shades of the dead, to places where no mortal has ever ventured, including the mysterious realm of the Moirai themselves and beyond.

Battle classic creatures from Greek myth and the original Titan Quest, including ichthians, centaurs, gryphons, hippokampoi, and cyclopes, and prove that the age of heroes is far from over.

An Odyssey Through the Unknown

Titan Quest II features a unique handcrafted campaign focused on exploration, and the world is full of mysteries and secrets to discover. Legendary monsters lurk in hidden groves, strange artifacts still carry magic from bygone ages, and you never know when you will end up face-to-face with a god. Every ruin holds a secret, every statue a story. Visit memorable towns full of life and intrigue. The conversations you engage in and the items you find along your journey can lead to surprising discoveries. This is your adventure.

Glory Awaits the Bold

As your journey progresses, you will unlock powerful abilities and wield epic weapons, but the enemies you face are far from defenceless – dodge and counter their attacks, then overwhelm them with a well-timed flurry of blows. Rituals allow you to control the game’s difficulty, while deep character customisation systems ensure that there’s always a good reason to replay.

From the creators of SpellForce 3 comes a handcrafted action RPG for a new generation of mythical heroes.

Key Features

• Flexible Character System
• In Titan Quest II, you are in control of your own fate. Form your own class by combining two masteries. Build your character around the strengths and weaknesses of both masteries, exploring different combinations of skill modifiers, attributes, and items to create your own hybrid class and find your favourite playstyle. Grow your powers from those of a young mortal to a hero to rival the gods themselves!
• Meaningful Loot
• Every item serves a function, and every character class has many options when it comes to finding the perfect equipment.
• Challenging Action RPG Combat
• Enemies form factions and work together, combining their unique skills and abilities to keep you on your toes. Use the deep character build system and access every skill at your disposal to vanquish them in this unique action RPG experience.
• A Beautiful, Handcrafted World Rooted in Greek Myth
• Encounter stunning vistas and deep caverns, and traverse the world with your divine mount, Areion. Use the powers of the gods to uncover secret locations and explore lovingly designed levels full of verticality.
• Rich and Immersive Sound
• An atmospheric soundtrack blends traditional Greek music with modern orchestral elements to create epic, memorable themes, drawing you into Titan Quest II’s unique world

Here, players can dive into the off-track life with two exciting new features: Thursday press conferences and a personal manager. During the Thursday press conferences, it will be possible to set both short and long-term goals, whether it’s calling out rivals in public or pushing the team for faster bike development. Meanwhile, the personal manager will play a key role in career progression, handling contract negotiations, arranging meetings with team and manufacturer representatives, and guiding players through crucial decisions in the Rider’s Market.

The Race Off game mode returns, now expanded with a brand-new location and the introduction of Production Bikes, a new 1000cc category that joins Motard, Flat Track, and Minibikes. Just like real riders, Race Off allows players to enjoy more relaxed racing sessions, perfect for training and improving performance ahead of the championship.

The Arcade and Pro experiences will help players of all skill levels on their journey to glory. The Arcade experience, revised from the previous chapter, is perfect for newcomers and those looking for simplified gameplay; on the other hand, the Pro experience is set to be the peak of simulation, offering the most realistic bike feeling and all the tools to create the perfect setup.

With cross-play* now enabling full 22-player grids* and split-screen support, everything is set for breathtaking battles, both online and offline. Finally, players can once again customise their look with advanced graphic editors and share their helmet, number, and buttpatch creations with the community**.

Leamington Spa, UK – March 5, 2026: UK games publisher Kwalee and independent developer Devotid are pleased to announce that The Coin Game 1.0 is coming to PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on March 19, 2026. 

The 1.0 update adds new locations, new vehicles, and a new Survivor Mode feature called the “Transport Phonebooth.” Survivor Mode has also been expanded with new side quests and bank foreclosure “problems.” Players can also discover a new Survivor Mode ending featuring a puzzle to solve, alongside numerous fixes and improvements across the island.

The 1.0 version of The Coin Game also brings major performance improvements. The update introduces a complete overhaul of the game’s scene loading systems, along with improvements to how players transition into and out of interior spaces.

First released in Early Access on PC in 2019, The Coin Game is an open-world arcade adventure with ticket redemption machines, a full carnival, quirky robots, a global ranking system, and lots of fun prizes. It features over 50 arcade machines with realistic physics and a pawn shop to help players manage their money.

About The Coin Game 

The Coin Game is a fun-filled arcade adventure on an island packed with ticket games, quirky robots, and endless activities. Explore realistic arcades with machines inspired by modern favorites and swap your tickets for prizes at redemption areas. Head to Larry’s Arcade to jam with animatronics Teddy and the Ticket Eaters, or try UFO Arcade’s space-themed games, Laser Tag, and Indoor Go-Karting. Don’t miss the ‘90s-style indoor mall with its own arcade, food court, shops, and even a cinema to watch your own movies. Just watch out for the minions – they’re big fans of Teddy and can challenge you in Laser Tag! Looking for more adventure? Make a splash at Lenny’s WaterPark or show your skills at mini-golf and RC boat racing at pirate-themed One Eyed Billie’s. And don’t forget the Traveling Carnival with 20+ classic games, rides, and new prizes.

For a challenge, Survivor Mode lets you start with limited funds. Keep an eye on your health and energy (right on your wristwatch) by grabbing food around the island. Jerry’s got the healthy stuff if you can afford it, but junk food’s always cheap!

Run out of money? Scavenge dumpsters, hop on your bike and deliver newspapers around the island, or hit up the Pawn Shop to sell extra prizes. Otherwise, you might have to beg Uncle Phil for some extra allowance!

If you just want to relax, activate Birthday Mode and live the good life with unlimited cash courtesy of Uncle Phil. Play however you like and enjoy your time at the arcades! Fill your belly with soda pop and cheesy poofs leaving sticky fingerprints on over 50 different games and machines.

There are plenty of ways to travel around the island. Take the bus, your very own golf cart, bike or Mom’s van. Or maybe walk to burn all that fast food you just had at the mall. Be careful though, there is lots of highway traffic and tourist activity on the island so make sure to keep off the roads.

You can play The Coin Game with any mouse, keyboard or any Dual stick/pad controller. The game includes an easy to use key mapping system to support virtually any controller or peripheral. So you can play The Coin Game any way that you like.

Ready for the ultimate arcade escape?
