Loot. Feast. Romance. Repeat. Food Devils Combines Hunger and Thirst in Saucy Tactics-RPG Roguelite Coming N̶o̶v̶.̶ ̶5 Nov. 3 to Steam

A small, but important change that probably has nothing to do with Ocarina of Time sees spicy and tactical genre-blending Food Devils launching on Steam earlier than expected – Yummmmm

MILAN (Sept. 24, 2026) Super jokester prankster lil whimsy guys at Studio Daimon were JUST KIDDING AROUND (hahahaa) two weeks ago when they announced the release date for the upcoming, saucy but deeply tactical RPG roguelite Food Devils and have re-announced that the game will now hit Steam two days earlier than expected for no reason at all and certainly not one that has anything to do with ®Nintendo™™®™ ® announcing a remake of one of their most popular titles ever just 24 hours after we announced ours. Food Devils and its roster of risqué characters and its engaging tactical combat will be ready to take your order on Nov. 3 instead of Nov. 5 (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2861730/Food_Devils/).

Check a look at new and improved launch date trailer that has definitely been completely reworked from the ground up and presented in a way never been done before in a video game trailer, ever:

In the upcoming and salacious Food Devils, you are the last chef in a post-apocalyptic world where your job is to attract adventurers with monstrous food. Convince them to sign contracts with Food Devils and then organize expeditions to collect irresistible ingredients to bring back, keeping your restaurant growing. 

Combining traditional roguelite gameplay with TRPG elements, players can customize their restaurant for maximum appeal as well as their characters while battling monsters and looting the spoils to make the next tempting dish to lure even more adventures. The dishes aren’t the only temping thing here, though… Like any great dish, RPGs are better served with a healthy dose of romance, and Food Devils delivers. Romance any of the Food Devils or pair two Food Devils together while being mindful of strategy when you assemble your party: Use Devil Contracts to boost skills and mobility across a variety of classes that are best suited for your schemes. Every adventurer is unique with randomized looks and stats, so no two runs are ever the same. Every Food Devil, though, is handcrafted and as appetizing as the dishes your restaurant serves.

Variety brings the spice of life and each of the game’s four distinct biomes comes with its own unique monsters and loot – including rare ingredients that encourage experimentation. In between runs, players will uncover the mystery of the Food Devils – learn their innermost desires, piece together their secrets and maybe even satisfy some desires of your own. 

Engage in tense, tactical combat, whip up delicious new dishes, and serve those delicious dishes to even more delicious Food Devils. Food Devils launches on Steam N̶o̶v̶.̶ ̶5 Nov. 3 and consoles in 2027. Keep up with these saucy beasts at https://linktr.ee/studiodaimongames

Owlcat Shares Details About Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader’s Final DLC, “Processional of the Damned”

0

The infamous Rogue Trader’s story comes to a close this December

Nicosia, Cyprus, (September 24, 2026) |Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader’s final DLC “Processional of the Damned” will be released later this December with a new storyline, companion, playable archetype, new enemies, gameplay features, gear and more.

Like the previous three DLCs, “Processional of the Damned” will be completely integrated in the main game, adding new quests throughout the main story. The miraculist Stella, a frail-looking young woman raised by the Ecclesiarchy, with powerful psychic abilities, can be recruited as a companion. Although she is an unsanctioned psyker, her order treats her like a miracle created by the God Emperor Himself. As the conduit of His will, she manifests her unstable powers shedding tears of blood and showing cracks in her porcelain skin. In battle she emanates a devastating wave of psychic flares, dealing area of effect damage to those surrounding her. Although she can learn to control her powers to some degree, veil degradation and the power of the warp mean that she will never truly be free from peril and madness. Whether players forge Stella into a living weapon, make her their friend and ally or decide to dive into the madness with her is up to them.

The DLC will include a new Archetype, the melee-focused “Zealot”, specialized in bludgeoning enemies to death. There will also be a new feature called Madness affecting all companions, new enemies from the ranks of the Arch Enemy and the Aeladari and much more. More details can be found in the blog post.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is available for PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG, as well as console via PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One and Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.

From Nightdive Studios and Atari, the 1998 story-driven shooter has been remastered for PC and consoles, delivering 4K visuals and overhauled controls

New York, NY (September 24, 2026) – Today, Nightdive Studios and Atari released SiN: Reloaded, a comprehensive remaster of Ritual Entertainment’s 1998 cult classic first-person shooter celebrated for pioneering deep interactivity, area-specific damage and branching narrative paths. Rebuilt for today’s hardware using Nightdive’s KEX Engine, this release bundles the base campaign with the Wages of SiN expansion, featuring upgraded HD textures, modernized UI and brand-new achievements. Players can dive into the action now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC via Steam, and GOG.

The 1998 SiN pushed traditional shooter formulas further, introducing systemic features rare for its time, including area-specific hit detection, reactive enemy responses and interactive level elements ranging from functional computers to pilotable aircraft. SiN: Reloaded maintains the full scope of these mechanics, bringing the game’s reactive combat and adaptable mission structure to current platforms without compromising its core design. The game is also celebrated for its two main characters, the tough, street-smart protagonist Colonel John Blade, and the brilliant, wealthy, sexy and ethically-challenged villain Elexis Sinclaire.

“SiN has always been one of those games that deserved another chance,” said Stephen Kick, Studio Head at Nightdive Studios. “It was ambitious, interactive, funny, and willing to experiment with ideas that were years ahead of their time. There’s an incredible amount of personality in this game, and that’s something we never wanted to lose. With SiN: Reloaded, our goal was to preserve everything that made the original special while finally giving it the presentation and performance it deserves. More than anything, I’m excited that a new generation of players will finally get to discover why so many of us fell in love with SiN in the first place.”

Fully powered by Nightdive’s proprietary KEX Engine, SiN: Reloaded brings significant technical and quality-of-life improvements across both the base campaign and the Wages of SiN expansion. The remaster delivers support for resolutions up to 4K and frame rates up to 144 FPS, updated HD models and textures, improved map layouts and updated control schemes for both controllers and keyboard setups. Players can seamlessly swap between remastered graphics and the original SiN Gold presentation, test their skills with brand-new achievements, listen to re-engineered audio tracks and explore a dedicated digital vault of exclusive behind-the-scenes production material.

Key gameplay features include:

  • Take Down SinTEK Industries: Step into the boots of security consultant Colonel John R. Blade as he battles the bio-engineered mutant army of CEO Dr. Elexis Sinclaire across a near-future dystopian city.
  • The Complete Legacy Package: Includes both the complete 1998 campaign and the Wages of SiN extra mission pack, pitting Blade against both SinTEK mutants and a ruthless mob syndicate.
  • Tactile Level Interactivity: Hack functional DOS-style terminals, access security camera grids, pilot heavy machinery and disarm enemies mid-firefight with precision locational damage.
  • Toggleable Retro Gameplay: Play with remastered HD textures, enhanced 2D menus and high-framerate support, or switch on-the-fly back to the original presentation of SiN Gold.
  • Enhanced Audio and Archival Material: Listen to re-engineered audio tracks by composer Zak Belika (mixed by Chris Mock) and dive into an exclusive in-game vault featuring behind-the-scenes development assets.
  • Free Next-Gen Upgrade: Players who purchase SiN: Reloaded on Nintendo Switch can upgrade to the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition at no additional cost.

SiN: Reloaded is now available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC via Steam and GOG.

Announcing Rip It! Card Collector: the tactile card-collecting incremental coming to Steam

0

Tear open a pack. Then another. Then another. Suddenly you’re running a fully automated cardboard processing empire

ANTWERP, BELGIUM (September 24, 2026) – Announcing Rip It! Card Collector, a tactile card-collecting sim and incremental that captures the moreish thrill of opening, collecting, and organising thousands of trading cards. Developed by Cybernetic Walrus, the team behind Order 13 and Roadside Research, Rip It! Card Collector is headed to PC.

Watch the Rip It! Card Collector announcement trailer:

Rip It! Card Collector simulates the satisfying ritual that makes card collecting so compelling. Tear open a pack and see what you’ve pulled before sorting through your haul and cashing in your cards. Then use the potentially life-changing proceeds to fuel increasingly questionable purchasing decisions.

There are over 1,800 cards to track down, making this organise-’em-up a collector’s dream. With everything from standard pulls to elusive super rares to discover, ‘just one more pack’ will quickly turn into hours of meticulously arranging virtual cardboard into one very large binder.

Opening packs by hand will only get you so far. To complete your collection, you’ll need to build out your workstation with new machines and gear to “accelerate” the process. Sell your unwanted dupes and spend the returns on upgrades that will transform your humble desk into a ridiculous card processing monstrosity. 

Rip It! Card Collector key features:

  • More than 1,800 cards to collect and organise: Give in to your inner completionist. Open pack after pack and hunt down missing cards to fill out your collection. Bring order to chaos by tidying messy card piles into neatly arranged binders.
  • Construct your very own card-ripping command centre: Your workstation comes stacked with mechanical potential. Unlock upgrades to optimise your pack opening. Transform your operation from hand-cranked into automated card processing perfection.
  • Chase the rares: A collection isn’t a collection without something painfully difficult to find. Alongside the huge pool of cards, Rip It! Card Collector features expensive cards, secret promos, and super-rare pulls. There’s always another card to find.

Rip It! Card Collector will launch on Steam. Wishlist now for the latest news.

Hit kingdom defence game heads to new platforms alongside first ever DLC expansion

London, UK – September 24, 2026 – Build by day. Conquer by night. Mythwright is thrilled to announce that the critically acclaimed kingdom defence game Thronefall is coming to PlayStation 5, XBOX Series X|S, and XBOX Game Pass this November, alongside the launch of the game’s first ever DLC expansion.

Launching on November 11th, Thronefall rides onto PlayStation and XBOX for the very first time, launching simultaneously with the release of ‘Craaghelm’, a major new DLC expansion featuring new units to command, new maps to conquer, and new perks to master.

Thronefall – Craaghelm Expansion:

Ride into battle to defend your little kingdom from a mighty mechanical army in Craaghelm, Thronefall’s first ever expansion. As the final spark of hope for a fading civilization, rally new forces and call upon ancient heroes to help you conquer the mountain, as you explore eight new maps to expand your reign.

  • Conquer The Mountain – As the last Dwarven King, descend into the mountain once more to reclaim your ancestral halls from the mechanical Constructs.
  • Explore New Territory – Navigate perilous terrain and charge into treacherous new territory across eight themed maps, as moving platforms, lava streams, and blocked choke points demand that you adapt or perish. 
  • Gather Your Forces – Command powerful new units, including Axe Throwers capable of striking foes on the ground and in the air alike, and Automatons and Airships that answer chaos with cold steel and steam. 
  • Call Upon Ancient Heroes – Call upon The Technician, Siege Engineer, and Dwarven Spirit Warriors to aid you in battle. Defend your kingdom against new enemy units, including the Clockwork Oliphaunt capable of crushing all before it, and Loot Goblins and Leap Bots that gnaw at your economy.
  • Discover New Tools – Wield devastating new weaponry forged by Dwarven lords. Dominate close combat with the Dragon’s Roar, or stand steadfast with the dual-shield Twin Bastions. Fortify your victory with new perks, from spiked walls that protect your economic buildings, to healing hot springs that grant health during intense battles.
  • Master Your Strategy – Discover new gameplay-modifying mutators, including disorienting volcanic ash, boulders, natural disasters, and more, to take on the ultimate Thronefall challenge.

Craaghelm will be available as a paid DLC expansion on Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch on November 11th. (Thronefall base game required.) 

With over 2 million units sold, Thronefall is a minimalist strategy game about building a humble kingdom by day and defending it by night.

Thronefall is available now on Steam, Epic Games Store, Nintendo Switch and mobile, and will be available on PlayStation 5, XBOX Series X|S and XBOX Game Pass on November 11th.

Break the loop when Curse of Resthaven arrives on PC, Mac, PS5 and Xbox on October 29

New, expanded demo on October 8 will give players their first full taste of the gripping gothic narrative roguelite by critically acclaimed developer Hilltop Studios

DENVER, CO, USA – September 24, 2026 – Rising indie publisher Digital Bandidos and multi-award-winning developer Hilltop Studios today announced that Curse of Resthaven, a gothic narrative roguelite about a doomed island trapped in a six-day time loop, will launch on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on October 29, 2026.

In this single-player narrative roguelite, players step into the shoes of Ambrose, the newly-appointed governor of a struggling island colony searching for his missing niece, Amalia. Six days after arriving, a cosmic cataclysm wipes out the island of Resthaven. Then Ambrose wakes up on the day of his arrival with just six days to uncover what happened… before disaster strikes again.

Trapped in a time loop, players must trade for resources, upgrade local businesses, interrogate the townsfolk, embark on card-based expeditions, and make strategic choices across repeated runs, using what they learn each time to change Resthaven’s fate. 

A demo is already available on Steam, and completing its core quests will earn bonus gold and skill points for use in the final game. 

A greatly expanded demo will replace this on October 8, 2026, ahead of Steam Next Fest. This will give both returning fans and first-time players a chance to truly begin their Resthaven journey, as progress will be carried over to the full game.

While the current version takes players through shortened two-day loops, this new demo will allow them to experience the full six-day loop used in the final game, as well as all four areas of Resthaven town. 

The standard edition of Curse of Resthaven will retail for US$19.99 (see store for local pricing). 

“The countdown to launch is on!” says game director Scott Christian. “Curse of Resthaven is by far the biggest and most ambitious thing we’ve made at Hilltop, and we’re getting to the point where we can finally let people see the whole thing. October 29 felt like the right day to release a game about curses, time loops, and gothic, eldritch horrors. Two days before Halloween seemed appropriate. 

“We’re especially excited to announce the expanded demo. It will be a proper look at the scope and rhythm of Curse of Resthaven, and we’re really looking forward to seeing what players do with it, whether they played the first demo or are diving in for the first time. Thanks to everyone who’s been following along and supporting us so far. We’re almost there. Or, more ominously, perhaps we’re just getting started. DUN DUN DUN.” 

“Curse of Resthaven is truly a special game thanks to its mix of mechanics as storytelling tools,” says Digital Bandidos CEO Steve Escalante. “It’s been wonderful to see this evolve from concept to prototype to near-final experience, and we’re so proud to support the incredibly talented folks at Hilltop Studios along the way. We’re looking forward to delivering the full Curse of Resthaven experience on PC, Mac and consoles next month.”

Players can wishlist Curse of Resthaven on Steam, PlayStation Store and Xbox Store. The Nintendo Switch version is still in development, with a release date to be announced soon.

IRONHIDE LAUNCHES KINGDOM RUSH 6: GENESIS TODAY ON STEAM, APP STORE AND GOOGLE PLAY

The beloved tower defense series returns to where it all began, as players travel back through time to defend the past and change the future 

Montevideo, Uruguay – 24 September 2026 –  Ironhide Game Studio today announced that Kingdom Rush 6: Genesis TD is out now worldwide on Steam, the App Store and Google Play, marking the beginning of a new chapter for the award-winning tower defense franchise.

Fifteen years after the first creep marched down the road, Kingdom Rush is going back to where it all began.

Kingdom Rush 6: Genesis TD takes players into the past, returning to the original lands of Linirea at a time when its greatest legends were still ordinary people and a young Vez’nan had yet to become the villain fans know today.

After the Sword of Elynie tears open a portal through time, players must journey into the Kingdom’s history and attempt to stop Vez’nan’s corruption before it takes hold.

“Fifteen years ago, we sent our first wave down a path without ever imagining where it would take us,” said Patricia, Community Manager at the Ironhide Team. “Genesis is our chance to go back to where it all started, while creating something completely new for both longtime Kingdom Rush players and people discovering the series for the first time. The community’s support and feedback helped shape this game throughout development, and we’re incredibly excited that it’s finally in players’ hands.”

Kingdom Rush 6: Genesis TD features an original campaign spanning 18 handcrafted stages across three landscapes of early Linirea, including the Citadel, the Stormcloud Depths and the distant lands of Arcania.

Players will command 15 towers, 12 heroes and nine spells, combining classic Kingdom Rush favourites with new strategic options as they battle more than 40 enemies from five different factions and face six colossal bosses standing between them and the future.

The game also introduces revamped progression systems, with heroes and spells featuring their own upgrade trees while towers use a shared global upgrade system that can be retuned between stages and reset at will.

Beyond the main campaign, every stage can be tackled through additional modes designed to push players’ strategies in completely different directions.

Classic Mode brings back to the original Kingdom Rush arsenal, challenging players to complete the campaign using only eight classic towers, two iconic spells and a single hero just like it was fifteen years ago.

Iron Challenge throws players against one devastating elite wave with just one life, while Blitz Challenge delivers three fast-paced waves with quicker enemies and increased gold gain.

In Hero Party, players command four heroes without access to spells, while Spell Rush removes heroes entirely and challenges players to survive using towers and faster-recharging spells alone.

“Your support and feedback shaped this game directly, and we can’t thank the Kingdom Rush community enough,” added the Ironhide Team. “Fifteen years in, players are still the reason we get to make these games. Now Genesis belongs to them, and we can’t wait to see the strategies, challenges and stories they create.”

Kingdom Rush 6: Genesis TD is available now worldwide on Steam, Google Play and the App Store.

To celebrate the release, Ironhide Games is launching the game with a 10% discount on Steam, with every game from the franchise also on sale with their lowest prices ever. Ironhide has also partnered with Youtooz on a limited-edition Vez’nan collectible figure, available to order now for a limited time.

Ironhide has also confirmed that development will continue beyond launch, with additional stages, heroes, spells and towers planned through future content updates.
