An exclusive crossover event, a brand-new survival PvP mode, and more await players
October 7th, 2025 – This Halloween, World of Tanks Blitz descends into darkness. All month long, the battlefield will be covered with apocalyptic fog as the undead rise from the shadows. The journey begins in partnership with AMC’s legendary television series The Walking Dead, thrusting tankers into a fight for survival against relentless foes. Leading the charge are two fan-favorite characters from the series: Daryl Dixon, wielding his crossbow as he scans the mist for danger, and Negan, swinging his iconic bat “Lucille.”
From October 9th to October 20th, tankers can join Daryl Dixon on the hunt for walkers in the exclusive “All Out War Event”.The road is brutal, but the rewards are worth it: a specially designed Herdbreaker tank built for the zombie apocalypse, legendary Georgia Tracker camouflage for the T32 tank, iconic collectibles like Daryl’s faithful crossbow and his battle-worn motorcycle, and more – all infused by authentic grit of The Walking Dead.
Next up is Negan – a ruthless, cunning, and dangerously unpredictable strategist. He takes the lead with the “We Are All Negan” quest, offering even more exclusive crossover rewards: his avatar and profile background, the legendary Lucille’s Grin camouflage for the M48 Patton tank, and more.
To deepen the eerie atmosphere of Halloween, World of Tanks Blitz introduces a brand-new PvP mode, “Infected Front.” From October 9th to October 19th, tank battles will be transformed into a desperate struggle between Survivalists and Undead tanks across fog-cloaked arenas. Unlike Survivalists, the Undead deal little damage with shells but unleash devastating power by ramming – a single hit is enough to destroy a Survivalist and spread the infection. To make the fight even more unpredictable, each Undead tank takes on a unique role that spreads chaos across the battlefield.
And that’s not all, those who endure this nightmare can join the Rotting Bay event with the new Tier VIII Biter tank as the ultimate prize. This medium comes with reinforced turret armor, an autoloader for rapid bursts, and a menacing post-apocalyptic look. As a final treat, every player who logs in between October 9th and October 16th will be granted 15 days of Premium Account for free.
The battle lines are drawn, the fog is rising, and the walkers are closing in. Join the fight in World of Tanks Blitz and experience Halloween like never before.

AttritoM7 Productions Reveals Gritty, Action-Packed Noir Thriller for PC in 2026
Dhaka, Bangladesh – October 6. Step into the shadows of 2012 New York with BLACKWOOD, the cinematic third-person action-thriller from AttritoM7 Productions, publisher and developer of the acclaimed Zero Hour. Scheduled for release on PC via Steam in 2026, BLACKWOOD plunges players into a brutal, unforgiving world where every night is a reckoning, and every choice shapes your fate.
By day, Anton Blackwood runs a small DVD store in Brooklyn, a place of quiet routines and fleeting moments of normalcy. Among the customers and shelves of old films, there is someone who sees a side of Anton that few others do: a woman who works in the store and notices the gentler side of him, the part he rarely shows to the world. Hang out in your apartment, manage the store, and experience the life of a man trying to maintain balance in a city that doesn’t forgive weakness.
But when the shutters roll down and the streets go quiet, Anton heads to the basement, a private space where there’s more than movies to rent. By night, he moves through the city as a deadly assassin, guided by the choreography of his favorite crime thrillers. Execute devastating melee takedowns, stage environmental kills, and survive high-octane on-foot and driving chases.
Anton thinks he’s the protagonist in his story, but someone is always watching, directing from the shadows. In BLACKWOOD, style and brutality intertwine, and the story bends to both choice and consequence, where every fight is a reckoning, and every decision matters.
BLACKWOOD blends tight, close-quarters combat with slow-burn storytelling. From the basement of a quiet Brooklyn DVD store to the neon-lit streets of 2012 New York’s underworld, every encounter is choreographed, every fight feels cinematic, and every choice has consequences. The quiet moments with the woman in the store remind Anton, and the player, that even in a world of darkness, glimpses of his humanity endure.
Key Features:
Unmatched Takedown System – Over 30 contextual finishers, from environmental kills to cinematic executions.
Grounded but Stylish Combat – Third-person cover mechanics, responsive movement, and 30+ unique weapons.
Dual-Life Roleplay – Manage a DVD store by day; take contracts and spill blood by night.
Authentic 2012 New York – Detailed world-building, from street ads to hidden lore in apartments.
Cinematic Storytelling – Seamless transitions between gameplay and cutscenes with flawed, human characters.
In-House Original Soundtrack – Music composed and performed by the studio’s own band, driving both story and combat intensity.
The unseen streets of New York await. Players can add BLACKWOOD to their Steam Wishlist today and follow Anton’s journey from mundane to deadly when it launches in 2026.
For more information, media assets, and updates, visit the official Steam page and secure your place in the shadows of BLACKWOOD.

Use cards and glyphs to rend secrets from silence, but beware – your questions may be your undoing in this card-based narrative-horror adventure
NICOSIA, Cyprus – Oct. 6, 2025 – CRITICAL REFLEX, the publisher of peculiar and enthralling video games, and equally eccentric indie developer Bastinus Rex are enchanted today to bring you CARIMARA: Beneath the Forlorn Limbs, a new narrative-horror experience about ghosts, goblins, and the anxiety of asking too much. Now available for $4.99 plus an additional 10% launch discount on Steam, CARIMARA is short and sweet, beatable in roughly one hour. But this retro-tinted romp has more than a few twists, turns and mysteries lurking in the shadows.
As the Carimara – a small, magical being – your goal seems simple: summon a ghost. But it’s not as easy as shouting incantations – especially because you’re mute. What you do have, however, is the gift of conjuring questions. Use cards adorned with mysterious glyphs to communicate, listen to what characters have to say, and pay attention to the details, but be careful – ask the wrong questions and you may wind up another mystery for the ages…
Inspired by medieval Normandy folk legend and classic cinema alike, CARIMARA’s world and art design are immediately gripping and memorable, with highly detailed low-poly graphics, hand-crafted visuals and stop-motion animations. This short but impactful journey promises plenty of sordid secrets to unravel and sinister forces better left undisturbed. There are no foes to battle here – just riddles wrapped in candlelight.
Features
A unique story-driven horror experience inspired by obscure Norman folklore that can be finished in a single play session
Explore, observe and choose your path forward with point-and-click mechanics and a card-based dialog system
A love letter to nature and old cinema blending low horror and dark fantasy, with distinct retro style, stop-motion animations, and handmade textures and sounds
A solo developer from Normandy, France, where folk tales shape one’s childhood and enhance their imagination to eventually make something like Carimara: Beneath the Forlorn Limbs.

Sophisticated tools help shop owners to organize and optimize their storage, while a new set of customers is waiting in the wings
Oberhaching, Germany, October 6, 2025 – The trek with fresh supplies was supposed to arrive in September, but a sandstorm in the desert caused some disorientation for the coachman and a little delay. But like Billyboy Shakespeare from the Old Country once said: “All’s well that ends well!” And this trek ends very well. SunDust, a label of German publisher Toplitz Productions, is excited to announce the release of the next major update for Wild West Supermarket Simulator.
While the previous updates were focused on bugfixes and usability improvements, now a heavily requested gameplay feature will be introduced that will change the way you allocate your inventory: Shelf management. Not only can you define the goods that your faithful helpers will restock. Now you are also able to utilize the cupboards and cabinets to their fullest and store items behind the safety of doors, so you have the hottest selling wares always in reach.
Your shop success also made the headlines across statelines and lured a whole new wild bunch of customers in. Get ready to welcome new NPCs entering your shop, looking for great prices, a great selection and even better service. Speaking of selection: If you are missing the occasional licence to sell the most demanded goods, pay a visit to the licence dealer, who just moved into town. And in case you miss the money to pay for his services, you will certainly enjoy the new rewards you can collect for participating in the minigames like the shootout range or the bread baking.
Also included in this update are additional bugfixes, quality-of-life improvements and balance optimizations. The next milestone on the roadmap will give you and your store even more options to set up the perfect shopping emporium, as you will be able to hire more workers, will be able to set up shelves in the storage room and have access to an improved order book.
Wild West Supermarket Simulator is available for PC in Early Access on Steam, GOG.com and Epic Games Store. More information can be found on the respective store pages. Or join us on Discord, so you don’t miss out on anything noteworthy on the game.
