Project formerly known as Stand Alone enters a new era with a new name and limited-time playtest 

Singapore, May 30, 2025 – Prepare to battle the evil forces of Doctor Wolf in action roguelite Ovis Loop, where players take on the role of a sheep armed with a greatsword, carving a path through endless waves of vicious wolves! The game, formerly known as Stand Alone, is announcing a limited-time playtest as developers LIFUEL continue to work on the game ahead of a planned launch later this year.

The playtest times are: 

• 29 May 22:00 – 5 June 12:00 (EDT) / 30 May 03:00 – 5 June 17:00 (BST)

Mashing up life on the farm with life in the cybernetic future, Ovis Loop promises fluid, kinetic combat against the backdrop of a gorgeous pixel art aesthetic. Uncover the story behind an AI robot that lost its memory and was turned into a sheep on a mission to save itself – and the world – from hordes of hungry wolves. 

With each boss monster taken down, more is revealed about the world of Ovis Loop and the origin story of its woolly warrior. 

Modify skills within the desolate worlds of a sci-fi apocalypse to create a unique combat style, using the game’s deckbuilding elements to play differently each time. Instead of simply getting and using new skills, players can transform them using their hacking abilities on their path to becoming the top of the food chain.

A spokesperson for LIFUEL said of the playtest: “A heartfelt thank you to every player who’s followed, supported, and joined us since our public reveal. In this round of testing, we’re excited to introduce brand-new exclusive boss modules, combat and control optimisations, improved UI and controller support, plus even more story and system content—everything you need for a richer, smoother gaming experience!”

Key Features:

• Engaging sci-fi narrative that gets deeper with every boss beaten, providing a reason to keep on playing with every loop. 
• Embrace the thrill of hacker-esque, God-tier play by downloading the skills from defeated enemies and adapting them to suit your needs.
• Leave behind ‘digital debris’ in beautifully crafted pixel art levels as the cyberpunk world gets a makeover.

Ovis Loop is available now from 29 May 22:00 – 5 June 12:00 (EDT) / 30 May 03:00 – 5 June 17:00 (BST) for a limited-time playtest on Steam. Visit the Steam page today to wishlist the game and apply to join the playtest for free. Click Request Access to sign up for the playtest, and approved applicants will receive a notification email from Steam once the test is live. Keep in the loop by following on Twitter, Discord and YouTube.

Coming to Steam and Nintendo Switch Later This Year

Lausanne, Switzerland — May 30, 2025 – Indie game developer Sunnyside Games is happy to reveal the first gameplay trailer for their upcoming Metroidvania, Nocturnal 2.

The game is set to launch later this year on Nintendo Switch and Steam, offering non-linear exploration through a city plunged into deep slumber. The main objective: awaken the city from its Sleep.

To break the puzzle of the city of Ytash, players must recover the scattered verses of a forgotten poem and carry the flames across the entire city—relighting everything in their path, from dormant engines to ancient shrines, and burning through obstacles and foes.

Built around fast-paced aerial combat and juggling, the game challenges players to master a burn-out system to progress and defeat the fierce enemies lurking throughout the ruins of this ancient place.

Key Features:

• Carry your flames carefully across the island, steering clear of anything that might extinguish them.
• Wield your blade to ignite ancient mechanisms and torches, gradually awakening the island god, Ytash.
• Collect fragments of a forgotten poem to piece together the tragic story of a long-lost, self-consuming city.
• Explore a compact, focused island adventure built around a singular core mechanic—with plenty of secrets waiting to be discovered.

Rise, Nightfarers, to a New Set of Challenges Set in the Elden Ring Universe with the New Multiplayer Co-op PVE Game by FromSoftware

ELDEN RING™ Nightreign, the standalone multiplayer co-op action survival game by FromSoftware, Inc. and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc., is now available to players worldwide. In the game, players must navigate the twists and turns and various challenges in the harsh and unforgiving world of Limveld – a new land to explore in the ELDEN RING™ universe. The game thrusts players into co-op multiplayer PVE combat against a harsh and unforgiving world. Teaming up in squads of three – or daring to go solo – they must outlast a three day-and-night cycle, making split decisions about combat and exploration across a changing map to become strong enough to take down terrifying bosses, including the occasional familiar foe from prior FromSofware games, at the end of each day. ELDEN RING Nightreign is available now in Standard and Deluxe edition as well as a physical Collector’s Edition for PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam®. For full details on the game, the Nightfarers, and more, visit the game’s official website: nightreign.com. 

Find out more of the challenges that await in ELDEN RING Nightreign by watching the launch trailer below.

ELDEN RING Nightreign is unlike any experience created before by FromSoftware, a condensed action RPG where players never experience the same journey twice, and the game environment itself is ever-shifting and evolving with each new session. In the game, players choose from one of eight unique Nightfarers, each with its own unique weapons and abilities, and must make split-second decisions about combat and exploration across a map that can fluctuate with different biomes, weapons, and enemies. Each session demands that they stay adept at thinking on their feet as the encircling Night’s Tide forces them into different scenarios with each expedition – just a hair’s breadth can separate a victorious run from crushing defeat. Surviving each day and outrunning the encroaching circle of fire pits players against terrifying bosses from ELDEN RING and other FromSoftware titles. On the third day, they must take on one of the game’s Nightlords – new, never-before-seen bosses with a new set of challenges to overcome.

Nightfarers must learn to cooperate to take down these challenges, combining their unique abilities together for an unparalleled experience in the ELDEN RING universe. All is not lost for those who fall in defeat. Unsuccessful runs will grant players relics to allow them to customize and upgrade their characters tailored to their personal play styles. Players can also discover new narratives in this parallel universe as they unravel the story behind each mysterious Nightfarer.

ELDEN RING Nightreign launches for PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam® on May 30.

LOS ANGELES – MAY 29, 2025 – Netmarble, a leading developer and publisher of high-quality games, has launched a major update for its squad-based RPG King Arthur: Legends Rise, developed by its North American Subsidiary Kabam. The update includes new content, strategic features, and limited-time anniversary events designed to reward players new and old.

Hesitant Wings Hild has joined the roster of playable characters. Under the command of the god of vengeance “Vidar,” Hild prepares to invade humanity while questioning whether complete obedience to the gods is truly just. In combat, she is especially effective against heavily armored enemy foes with skill sets that inflict Damage Over Time(DOT) based on Max HP and Effect Resistance ▼, ultimately making her a formidable presence in both the Arena and Clan Wars.

The brand-new Event Arena is now availablewhere players from the existing Arena leaderboard will have the opportunity to achieve top ranking and receive the coveted title of King Arthur’s Legendary 200. Competitors can tactically leverage features such as Season Buffs, Enhanced Heroes, and Enhancement Buffs while battling powerful defense teams. Rewards are distributed based on player rankings, with higher placements yielding better prizes.

The Hall of Conquerors has entered Season 2 where players face off against three boss monsters per season. Season 2 features new bosses, Blazing Gorgos and Ciaran. Players can earn rewards such as the Hero Memory Rudiment based on their final scores and seasonal rankings. Additionally, a new Equipment Engraving System allows players to imprint extra attributes onto their gear.

A series of special events is being rolled out to celebrate the game’s half-year milestone. Players can earn points by completing missions—such as clearing dungeon—and exchange them for rewards including the 0.5 Anniversary Frame, Special Summon Ticket, Memory Rudiment Chest, and more. A second concurrent event enables players to trade collected resources for high-value items such as the Legendary Master Memory Stone, Memory Rudiment Chest, and Rate Up Summon Ticket.

A new Attendance Event, designed for both new and returning players, has also launched. Participants can earn rewards including a Legendary Hero Summon Ticket and Special Summon Tickets. In addition, the monthly June Attendance Event offers Special Summon Tickets and a 6-Star Equipment Selection Chest.

King Arthur: Legends Rise is the next evolution of the crossplay squad-based RPG. Bringing a dark reimagining of the King Arthur story to life through intense combat, adventurous gameplay and best in class visuals powered by Unreal Engine 5 to PC and mobile. Joining Arthur’s quest to save Camelot from the threat of dreadful villains and the ancient gods, players will adventure across medieval Britain assembling a squad of powerful heroes. Alongside this action-packed story, players will also experience how Kabam has reimagined King Arthur’s legend into a visually stunning and vast turn-based RPG featuring both PvE and PvP gameplay.
