Evil Empire Set to Bring Spud-Packing Punches to 10 Million-Strong Brotato Across PC, Consoles & Mobile

Developer of Rogue Prince of Persia and Dead Cells DLCs joins forces with Blobfish Games for a potato cannon’s worth of new content later this year and beyond

POTATO WORLD (September 29, 2025) – Evil Empire, the developer of Rogue Prince of Persia and Dead Cells DLCs, has revealed today that they have taken over development of Brotato, the multi-million selling game for PC, consoles and mobile, under the watchful eyes of original developer Blobfish Games who will now fully focus on making brand-new games. To mark the occasion, the Evil Empire team released a taste of what new and old bros can expect when Brotato gets its first full update next month – a new mob, The Gobbler.

Evil Empire is best known for its unnervingly long, strong and steady hand bringing years of content to fans for the GOTY hit Dead Cells from Motion Twin, culminating in the Return to Castlevania DLC. The Evil Empire team, founded by ex-Motion Twin developers, was originally created for this specific type of game development work – to support and work with energized, enthusiastic communities of games to bring fresh and inspired content to the games we all love.

Thomas Gervraud, Blobfish CEO and founder, said, “I’m excited to see how the game evolves under the direction of such a talented team and what fresh perspectives they’ll bring to the table. Above all, though, I’m just eager to dive back in and have fun playing Brotato again.”

Brotato launched in 2023 and since then the top-down arena shooting roguelike has spawned more than 10 million+ players around the world across PC, console and mobile platforms. Already a robust title for solo or co-op players, Evil Empire is joining in to keep baking Brotato, adding the ever-necessary topping of fire updates packed with new content and even more roguelike goodness. Experienced shepherds of roguelikes that they are, Evil Empire’s additions to Brotato won’t be thrown on willy-nilly (much like tuna on a baked potato, because who even does that).

Following their stewardship of the Dead Cells brand over four years, Evil Empire most recently developed The Rogue Prince of Persia (80 Metacritic | 1600+ Very Positive Reviews on Steam) which launched out of Early Access after a short 15 months to critical acclaim. 

Aberratic Reveals New Gameplay Trailer for Symbiosis and Opens Sign-Ups for First-Ever Community Playtest

0

Belgium – 29 September, 2025. Indie developer Aberratic has unveiled a brand-new gameplay trailer for their upcoming sci-fi survival action RPG, Symbiosis (formerly Land of Symbiosis), launching on PC via Steam Early Access in early 2026. Alongside the trailer, Aberratic has opened sign-ups for the game’s first community playtest, inviting players to be among the first to set foot on the alien world of Sigma Century. Fans can sign up to join the playtest on the Steam page

Can You Survive Sigma Century?

In solo or co-op play, Symbiosis plunges you into the hostile, procedurally generated alien world of Sigma Century. You take on the role of an A.S.T.R.A., an elite fighter dispatched to protect a scientific mission, until a mysterious electromagnetic pulse brings your ship crashing down. Stranded, you’ll need to scavenge resources, establish fortified bases, master both ranged and melee combat, and explore diverse, ever-deadlier biomes to uncover the truth of what happened to the scientists before you.

But survival won’t be easy. The scientists’ imported technologies have left their mark, warping the local wildlife into relentless threats. Every step deeper into Sigma Century pushes you closer to hostile creatures, environmental hazards, and secrets that might hold the key to your escape.

Key Features

Think of Symbiosis as a hybrid between 7 Days to Die and The Riftbreaker

  • Base Defense – Your presence and your technology emit electromagnetic pollution that draws increasingly aggressive waves of creatures. Build a stronghold and fight for your survival.
  • Exploration – Traverse a wide variety of alien biomes that grow harsher and more treacherous the further you venture from your crash site. Endure heavy storms, sand-blasting winds, hostile plants, and dangerous creatures lurking in the wild.
  • Base Building – Gather resources to construct and expand your fortified base. As you advance, unlock more sophisticated defenses and automated systems to hold back the planet’s hostile forces.
  • Boss Battles – To escape Sigma Century, you’ll need to customise your role, upgrade your gear, and coordinate your playstyle with friends to overcome colossal symbiotic bosses.

A Call for Survivors

The new gameplay trailer gives players their best look yet at the harsh environments, base-building mechanics, and heart-pounding battles against the planet’s monstrous inhabitants. But Aberratic doesn’t just want players to watch, they want them to join the fight.

Head to the Events & Announcements section of the Steam page for more information on the play test and how to sign up.

Symbiosis will release on Steam Early Access in early 2026. Survivors can Wishlist the game now on Steam to stay up to date on development, trailers, and future playtests.

Frozen Way is rebranding its farming automation game as Farmbotic, Unveils New Trailer at Tokyo Game Show

0

Frozen Way, a Krakow-based development studio, is proud to announce that our upcoming farming life simulator has been renamed and will now be known as Farmbotic.

The new name highlights the game’s central idea of combining the charm of classic farming with the possibilities offered by automation and robotics. In the game, players are aided by a fleet of customizable and indispensable robotic assistants called Farmbots. It reflects both the cozy atmosphere of growing crops and the sense of progress that comes from building a futuristic, technology-driven farm.

The playable demo at the Tokyo Game Show has given players a hands-on experience with the core mechanics, allowing them to command their first Farmbots and get a taste of the revolutionary farming gameplay that awaits.

Follow the game on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2573060/Farmbotic/), PlayStation Store (https://store.playstation.com/en-us/concept/10010703/), Microsoft Store (https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/farmatic/9MTS4L0NG48X), and join developers on Discord (https://discord.gg/frozenwayofficial).

About Farmbotic

Farmbotic is a farming life simulator that combines cozy farming, light automation, crafting, and combat elements. Set in a retro-futuristic world inspired by the 1970s and 1990s, the game allows players to create and expand their own farm using advanced technology to make everyday farm work more efficient and enjoyable. Whether playing alone or in co-op, players will gradually transform their farm while uncovering new mechanics, completing story-driven quests, and navigating both the charm and the strangeness of village life.

At its core, Farmbotic offers players the tools to run their own farm – from planting and harvesting crops to raising animals and using light automation to support everyday tasks. As players progress, they can expand their farm with bots and simple machines that make work easier without replacing the cozy pace of farm life.

Far beneath the peaceful fields lies a dangerous and irradiated zone – the underground mines, home to Rhemidium, a mysterious and highly unstable radioactive metal. As players descend deeper, they must face mutated subterranean lifeforms and survive increasing levels of radiation. Without a protective suit, exposure can quickly take its toll, making every expedition a strategic challenge. Yet the reward is worth it – Rhemidium is key to unlocking some of the game’s most advanced features.

Once prepared by the town’s chemist, Remidium-based soil allows players to grow mutated crops – unique plants with specific, well-defined effects. Each type offers a different utility: some may be processed into uncommon tools or functional upgrades, such as fiery chili plants turned into ammunition with fire damage properties. Others may also be required to complete certain quests, adding a narrative touch to their otherwise practical role on the farm.

Farmbotic also features a small-town community full of memorable characters, quests, and interactions. From the eccentric local scientist to the friendly shopkeepers, the town offers many opportunities to get involved in village life and learn more about its curious world. Helping others isn’t just rewarding – it also unlocks new tools, resources, and gameplay features.

One of the standout features of Farmbotic is its cooperative gameplay. Up to four players can join forces thanks to full crossplay support across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X. Friends can divide tasks, explore the mines together, and build a shared farm in their own style – no matter the platform.

Farmbotic focuses on calm, satisfying progression, blending traditional farming with light automation and exploration. It reimagines rural life through a retro-futuristic lens – in a setting that feels both familiar and refreshingly different.

Farmbotic is being developed by Frozen Way and will launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2026.
