Sydney, Australia, May 13, 2026 – NITRO GEN OMEGA, an RPG turned-based sandbox game, developed by Italian studio DESTINYbit, is finally available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
Previously available on Steam in Early Access, the game is set in a post-apocalyptic universe, where machines are ruling the world. Through an innovative turn-based combat system, players will have to survive in this hostile environment by assembling their own team and defeating enemies using a customisable Mech.
The 1.0 version of the game adds a Main Quest, which invites players to embark on an ultimate, epic journey in the desperate attempt to save the world from machines. The story will introduce new characters, cutscenes, and never-before-heard tracks from the soundtrack, further expanding the NITRO GEN OMEGA universe.
At the heart of the gameplay is the original cinematic turn-based combat system. Each turn is divided into a first Planning Phase, where it is possible to decide every move on a timeline; and a second Resolution Phase, where the decision taken will be shown in fully animated anime-style sequences. Players will have to take care of their crew by nurturing bonds between teammates and controlling everyone’s health status, fatigue, and morale through special activities. In fact, the team’s status will deeply impact the battle’s outcomes. It is also possible to explore the wastelands, filled with rogue AI, by accepting contracts and missions. Those will make players accumulate resources and fundamental parts to upgrade their Mech.
A demo* is also available, where it is possible to try the first chapter of the Main Quest.

MindEdges and Skystone Games Announce Automation Love Letter with Eastern European Soul
SAN FRANCISCO – MindEdges and Skystone Games announce AGRONOM, an automation farming game that blends the mechanical depth of Satisfactory and Factorio with the warmth of Eastern European tradition. Build your Martian homestead. Automate your dreams. Grow borscht on an alien world!
You’ve landed on Mars with nothing but a patch of barren red soil and a memory. Gramps Makar’s wife Sofia always dreamed of a home filled with life—with gardens, with purpose, with warmth. Now, on a dead planet in the 22nd century, you’re going to build it for them.
AGRONOM is a love letter to two things: the obsessive optimization of automation games and the human need to create something beautiful. You’ll build production chains that would make any engineer weep—conveyor belts carrying resources, robots tending to greenhouses, furnaces churning day and night. But this isn’t sterile efficiency. It’s cozy. It’s personal. Your robots have personalities. Your base is infused with the folk traditions of old Eastern Europe—painted wood, warm colors, the sense that you’re not just surviving, you’re living.
Dig for resources, build structures, and plant crops. Optimize your production chains to grow food, craft tools, and unlock new regions of Mars. Every upgrade to your base brings you closer to the vision—a thriving settlement where technology and tradition breathe together. The systems will challenge you. The aesthetics will comfort you. And somewhere in the automation loops and the colorful tiles, you’ll find what it means to build a home on an impossible world.
About MindEdges
MindEdges is a game development studio passionate about creating experiences that blend deep systems with heart. AGRONOM represents their vision of automation games that respect both the joy of optimization and the human need for beauty and meaning.

Two perspectives, one fight: Work together to battle the forces of darkness as King, Fish
May 12, 2026 – WheelMates developer FireVolt reveal Kingfish, a two-player roguelite cooperative city-builder about managing and defending a kingdom on the back of an ancient leviathan. Kingfish sets sail for consoles and PC via Steam in 2027.
Assume one of two roles in a world covered in a vast ocean filled with monsters and other dangers – Play strategically from above as the giant fish which doubles as the land for the kingdom. Manage resources, build structures, and provide support on the battlefield. On the ground which doubles as the back of the massive seabeast, guide the young King, gathering resources and fighting enemies in real-time combat.
If King and Fish will survive, they must coordinate and each play their roles. As King, manage the details of life on the back of a giant fish and manage the unique villagers.Pay attention to their needs and preferences to raise morale and have a fighting force ready when it’s time for battle, then respond to immediate invading threats.
Or become the far-seeing Fish and look to the bigger picture – nearby dangers in the sea, resource production, and the layout of the city. Expand the city and organize workers to meet production goals. Alert the King to hostile forces approaching in the darkness of night, and provide support in battle by casting powerful spells.
Share information about enemies, resources, and plans in order to bring peace and harmony to the tiny civilization emerging on the back of the ancient leviathan, and carry on the royal family’s promise and destiny!
“The King and Fish both have incomplete information, and it creates this great dynamic of working together despite having completely different perspectives on the same situation,” said FireVolt. “We wanted to bring a fresh take on city builders, blending real-time strategy and third-person action in an asymmetric cooperative experience..”
Each run brings a new city to build, with new characters to meet, new buildings to construct, and new artefacts to discover, but with returning villagers, who provide special perks to King and Fish.
Kingfish launches on PC via Steam in 2027. For more information about the game, be sure to add it to your Steam wishlist.

Los Angeles, CA – May 12, 2026 – Building on its recent Steam launch, Above the Desk is wasting no time expanding its mountain survival experience Above the Snow, revealing a packed post-launch roadmap featuring Endless Mode upgrades, deep automation systems, major quality-of-life improvements, and an upcoming DLC.
Already holding a “Mostly Positive” rating on Steam, the narrative management sim continues to gain momentum as players push deeper into its harsh expedition systems and evolving trail-management gameplay.
The roadmap begins this month with Version 1.1, introducing a redesigned Paths Building Mode, key balance adjustments, UI improvements, trail save/rename functionality, and a brand-new post-story Endless Mode designed to push survival strategies far beyond the campaign.
June’s Version 1.2 update expands the experience further with Photo Mode, improved trail maps, additional buildable structures, and faster, more intuitive route selection tools.
In July, Version 1.3 will deliver one of the game’s most significant system upgrades yet: a scheduler-based automation system, allowing players to assign and optimize crew tasks across their entire survival operation. The update also adds new Endless Mode events, expanded crew selection systems, further balancing, and additional building content.
Looking ahead, the roadmap also confirms a Version 1.4 DLC, currently in development, signaling even more content beyond the core updates.
Blending survival strategy, expedition logistics, and infrastructure management, Above the Snow challenges players to expand fragile mountain routes while balancing limited resources, crew efficiency, and the ever-present danger of the wilderness.

Customize your own guns and uncover the mystery of a steampunk island!
Austin, Texas – May 12th, 2026 – Indie developer Realmsoft, in partnership with OI Games, are thrilled to announce that after 14 years in development the weapon-building steampunk metroidvania Clockwork Ambrosia has finally launched on Steam for $19.99. Blending fast-paced 2D run-and-gun platforming with deep weapon customization, Clockwork Ambrosia invites players to build their own arsenal through a wide range of modular upgrades, from screen-filling shot splitters to devastating missile barrages and precision sniper rounds.
“When we first dreamed up Clockwork Ambrosia back in 2012, we had no idea what kind of journey we were embarking upon,” said Nathan Hiemenz, Founder and Developer at Realmsoft. “We’ve learned so much in that time and the game has greatly evolved for the better. Clockwork Ambrosia is a classic metroidvania that mixes oldschool sensibilities and charm with contemporary flourishes like weapon customization. We can’t wait to hear about your adventure on Aspida!”
Utilizing a unique blend of classic metroidvania exploration and modern customization systems, Clockwork Ambrosia offers a fresh take on the genre, combining discovery, experimentation, and fast-paced combat.
Players step into the boots of Iris, an airship engineer stranded on the mysterious island of Aspida following a near-fatal crash. What begins as a fight for survival quickly turns into a deeper mystery, as Iris uncovers a world where the island’s population has vanished, replaced by hostile machines and strange creatures.
Set across a richly detailed steampunk world, players will explore diverse biomes ranging from sky cities above the clouds to overgrown mushroom forests and the depths of sunken ruins. Along the way, Iris will encounter a cast of eccentric characters, from rogue AI allies to curious inhabitants, all while piecing together the truth behind Aspida’s downfall.
Clockwork Ambrosia features:
15-20 hour (average) playtime
Find over 100 unique mods for endless possibilities
Save and swap between your favorite weapon & mod loadouts
Pin icons to the map, marking areas for later exploration
Purchase new mods and items with scrap from the hub village of Borersville
Upgrade weapons to add mod slots; upgrade equipment to enhance their stats
Buy enemy drops from the Borersville shop if you miss them during the heat of battle
Fast travel across the island with unlockable warp points
Death returns you to your last save point, but (limited) extra lives let you resurrect where you left off

The long-awaited narrative sci-fi survival horror adventure from Supermassive Games is available now!
GUILDFORD, England – May 12, 2026 –Supermassive Games, the award-winning studio behind Until Dawn and The Quarry, today launches Directive 8020, a cinematic sci-fi survival horror adventure and the latest entry in the fan-favorite TheDark Pictures series, available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam).
Earth is dying and humanity is running out of time. 12 light-years from home, Tau Ceti f offers a small sliver of hope. When the colony ship Cassiopeia crash lands on the planet, its crew soon realize they are far from being alone.
Hunted by an alien organism capable of mimicking its prey, the crew of the Cassiopeia must outwit their pursuers to make it home alive. As they battle to survive, they are confronted with the hardest choice of all: to save themselves, they must risk the lives of everyone on Earth.
In space, death takes many forms.
A bold first for Supermassive Games, this “The Thing… in space” sci-fi survival horror journey evolves The Dark Pictures formula with real-time threats, survival gameplay and enhanced tools like Turning Points. Players must navigate impossible moral dilemmas amid rising paranoia, where no one on the crew can be trusted and every choice matters, shaping the fate of the crew at every turn. Choose wisely, as all characters can live and all can die. And what of The Curator? Well, you’ll just have to play to find out!
Starring Lashana Lynch (No Time to Die, Bob Marley: One Love, The Woman King) as pilot Brianna Young, Directive 8020 delivers a gripping cinematic experience that can be played solo or shared with up to five players in couch co-op movie night mode (with online multiplayer coming in a post-launch update).
Directive 8020 includes several stand-out gameplay-enhancing features:
TRUST NO ONE: Encounter an alien lifeform that perfectly imitates its prey. Years of training and trust are lost among the crew when their enemy hides in plain sight. Who is human and who is not? Your choices are now more important than ever!
REWIND DECISIONS: Rewrite your destiny and change the course of your story with our new Turning Points story tree. Uncover multiple endings, unlock hidden paths, and save your crew from their fateful deaths.
REAL-TIME ALIEN THREATS: Evade a deadly alien threat that roams the dark corridors of the ship, intent on eradicating human life. Overcome your enemies using improvised weapons, lightning reflexes, and stealth.
DON’T PLAY ALONE: Recruit up to five players to join the mission in couch co-op movie night mode. Choose which crew members to control and work together with your friends to survive alien infiltrators, deadly dilemmas, and catastrophic system failures (with online multiplayer coming in a post-launch update).
“With Directive 8020, we’ve taken our signature horror narrative and everything we love about cinematic storytelling, pushing it all into new territory,” said Will Doyle, Creative Director at Supermassive Games. “We’re incredibly proud of what the team has accomplished, and bringing our storytelling into a sci-fi setting for the first time has been a hugely exciting step. The team has worked hard to refine every part of the experience, so we can’t wait for players to finally get their hands on it.”
Directive 8020 features actress Lashana Lynch as the groundbreaking astronaut “Young” in an intense cinematic sci-fi horror narrative. She can be seen starring in and as the co-EP of the series The Day of the Jackal with Eddie Redmayne. Previous projects include The Woman King, Bob Marley: One Love, Matilda the Musical and appearances in the MCU’s The Marvels, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Captain Marvel.

Available on Steam This Week – Put Your Experience to The Test in a Punishing New Difficulty Level, and Begin Your Adventure Anew with New Game+
Milton Keynes, UK, May 12, 2026 – With the release of the dark fantasy action-adventure Blades of Fire on Steam just days away, developer MercurySteam and publisher 505 Games have revealed details on two more new features to come with Version 2.0. The final video of their weekly feature reveal series showcases a punishing new difficulty mode, Titanium Difficulty, alongside the introduction of New Game Plus, allowing players to replay Aran de Lira’s adventure and uncover a new level of mastering the forge.
Watch the final episode of the Blades of FireFeature Video Series: Titanium Difficulty & New Game+
The highly challenging difficulty level, Titanium Difficulty – recommended only for the most experienced players looking to prove themselves – doesn’t pull any punches! It requires smart combat tactics, excellent weapon management, and a perceptive eye to strategize against enemy behaviour for them to come out unscathed. Players will battle their way through enemies with enhanced health, armour, and a 20% damage increase. Bosses have been rebalanced, with stricter timing-based mechanics – rewards come to those with precise combat, while failure awaits the reckless. And if that wasn’t enough, the Queen has placed a curse on certain Anvils throughout the realm, rendering them unusable for rest or fast travel, hindering Aran’s progress.
Unlocked after completing Blades of Fire a first time, New Game Plus invites players to relive Aran’s adventure while maintaining most of their progression. Skills and upgrades, health and stamina gems, weapons and blueprints, materials, forge memory, codex content, Arcana spells and unlocked skins, will carry over but at a cost, as enemy damage will scale to a player’s maximum health. For the completionists, New Game Plus introduces two new skins and 27 exclusive forge statues that will unlock brand new weapon parts. Visible on the map from the start, offer up the correct weapon type to each statue to make new weapon parts available in the forge.
For players looking to put their skills to the test and reap the rewards that come from overcoming a brutal challenge, Titanium Difficulty and New Game Plus are exactly what they’re looking for.
Download the Blades of Fire demo, available now on Steam, and experience the new features included in Version 2.0 ahead of its official launch.
Blades of Fire is currently available on PC via the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Blades of Fire – Version 2.0 will be available on Steam on May 14.
Starting May 14, the Version 2.0 upgrade launches as a free update on all other platforms, including PlayStation 5, Xbox, and Epic Games Store (PC).
