After 8 Years Offline, Cult Multiplayer Hack-and-Slash RPG Dungeon Rampage Hits Steam Early Access Today

Irvine, California – December 5, 2025 – After nearly a decade of absence, Dungeon Rampage is back. The popular multiplayer hack-and-slash RPG, once enjoyed by millions of players each month in the 2010s, launches on Steam Early Access today, December 5, 2025. The return follows a successful Kickstarter campaign that tripled its funding goal and a widely appreciated Steam Next Fest demo that attracted over 80,000 players. Since its announcement in May, the game also surpassed 150,000 wishlists on Steam, highlighting the excitement and anticipation from fans worldwide.

Originally taken offline in 2017, the game’s revival was sparked by Angelos Mako, a fan who spent a third of his lifetime tracking down the original developers. At just 17, Mako helped recover the lost source code and secured the game’s rights before partnering with industry veterans at Gamebreaking Studios to bring his childhood favorite back to life.

“This game means so much to me,” says Mako. “I’ve been waiting for this day for over eight years, and I’m thrilled to see old-time players and newcomers crawl through these dungeons together.”

A Modernized Classic That Will Continue to Grow

Dungeon Rampage has been updated to run smoothly on modern systems and delivers seamless co-op multiplayer. Early Access players can dive into fast-paced, arcade-style dungeon runs, choose from four distinct heroes, and unlock all gameplay content purely through play. No more microtransactions.

To address a major issue from the original game, a new reporting system and anti-cheat measures have been implemented, ensuring fair, competitive dungeon runs for all players.

Major updates planned throughout Early Access will add controller support, four additional heroes from the original game, and Ultimate Rampage, a roguelite challenge mode that ramps up the chaos even further.

Dungeon Rampage has been launched on Steam Early Access with regional pricing to ensure players worldwide can join the action.

Become a Human Firewall in Mixed-Reality Tower Defense Xploit.zero 28 January

Jump into a computer and fight fire with a firewall on Meta Quest 3

MADRID — 5 Dec. 2025 — Xploit.zero, the mixed-reality firewall vs. viruses tower defender from AAA Game Studios, prepares for cyber warfare on Meta Quest 3 on Wednesday, 28 January 2026, as revealed during today’s UploadVR Winter Showcase.

Protect a powerful computer from incoming waves of invading viruses on a neon-hued battlefield, infecting the whole room in mixed reality. Defend the NeuroGate, the only link back to reality, from waves of crawling DDoS and flying Malworms before they take over the computer and destroy a path back to the real world!

Fortify your room by placing defensive structures along enemy paths to destroy DDoS wireframe bugs before they reach the NeuroGate. Locate strategic placements for each turret, factoring in their field of vision and the shape of your room. Engineer an ironclad resistance against advancing bugs, and rummage through their digital remains for Memory Cores to increase turret capacity.

While well-placed fortifications protect the walls, keep an eye to the sky — stay vigilant and watch every corner of your space to defend from flying Malworm missiles cascading toward friendly structures. Scope out their flight path and swat the flyruses out of the sky with a swipe of the hand. 

Protect the NeuroGate through a series of increasingly difficult levels in the timed Countdown Mode, or revisit cleared levels and hold down the motherboard for as long as possible in Infinite Mode. Share times and climb the ranks by outlasting other cyber defenders on the global leaderboard.

Xploit.zero is inspired by rapid scientific advancements that can be both exciting and overwhelming – what if it soon becomes possible to interact with computer programs and viruses with your own hands?“ said Antonio Marín, CEO and co-founder of AAA Game Studios. “We hope our audience finds the experience as thrilling as it is thought-provoking about our relationship with technology.”

Xploit.zero will infect Meta Quest 3 on Wednesday, 28 January 2026 with English language support. For more information, visit the official AAA Game Studios website, follow Xploit.zero on X / Twitter, and search the hashtag #XploitZero on social media.

YOGSCAST GAMES REVEALS RHELL: WARPED WORLDS & TROUBLED TIMES ALL-NEW TRAILER AND CONFIRMS MARCH 19, 2026 RELEASE DATE

New Spell Challenge Available Fortnightly in Updated Playable Demo

Bristol, UK – December 5, 2025 – Yogscast Games announces that Rhell: Warped Words & Troubled Times, a mystical puzzle-adventure that combines a narrative full of heart with depth in exploration gameplay, will release on PC via Steam on Thursday, March 19, 2026. In this semi-open world game, players play as the titular character Rhell, who sets out on an intriguing journey to return a vanished world to its former glory. Players will solve a series of puzzles as they explore the 14 main areas by casting spells, which alter the outcome of the path as hidden secrets are uncovered. 

Spells are cast using unique combinations made up of “runes” or magical keywords that allow players the flexibility to stretch the boundaries of their imagination. With 40 different runes and keywords, combinations can be made in many ways, to produce over 102 million permutations in total. The level of progression depends on the number of keywords collected and stored, keeping players engaged and curious, as the same puzzle can be solved in multiple ways.

“The real beauty of this game is that there are many unexpected emergent moments for players to experience,” says game creator Alice Jarratt from SlugGlove, “With no perfect way to solve puzzles, players will feel a sense of satisfaction in discovering solutions in their own creative way, making gameplay feel more relaxing and engaging.” 

As players begin uncovering the mystery of the vanished world and help bring it back to life, they witness how Rhell’s character evolves based on her interactions with the NPCs met along the way. The freedom to explore, invent, and creatively solve puzzles will give players a sense of connection to both the game’s narrative and Rhell’s journey of discovery.

From today, players can jump into the updated Demo and play a new fortnightly challenge, allowing them to delve deeper into the spell system and experiment with word combinations.  


Developed by SlugGlove, Rhell will be released on Steam on March 19 2026. Keep up-to-date with the latest news and information, visit the Yogscast Games website.
