Investigate, document, and survive real-world-inspired legends in a co-op horror experience rooted in Appalachian folklore

May 7th, 2026 – Ever feel like something’s watching you from beyond the treeline? You might be right. Six One Publishing and developer Jade Meadows have officially relaunched the Kickstarter campaign for Blue Ridge Hunting, the online co-op horror adventure in which players investigate, document, and hunt cryptids across the Appalachian Mountains.

Set in a region steeped in real-world sightings, folklore, and unexplained phenomena, Blue Ridge Hunting puts players in the boots of the Appalachian Investigation Group as they track down creatures lurking deep within the wilderness. Using a range of tools and equipment, investigators gather evidence, document encounters, and attempt to survive each expedition. But the woods are alive—creatures react to proximity voice chat, and radio communication, turning every conversation into a potential risk.

The relaunched Kickstarter campaign offers a closer look at the game’s core systems and long-term vision, with weekly reveals introducing new cryptids and map locations inspired by real Appalachian sightings. At full release, Blue Ridge Hunting will also feature a narrative-driven story mode following Levi Chambers, a West Virginia native haunted by lifelong encounters with the Mothman, alongside a freeplay co-op mode for players looking to explore the unknown together. To give players a taste of narrative and gameplay, a brand new demo also launched today on Steam.

Field Notes:

• Found Footage: A gritty retro/PSX art style inspired by early 3D horror and analog media
• Always Listening: Creatures react to proximity voice chat and radio chatter—communication is crucial, but dangerous
• Into the Woods, Solo or Together: Explore Appalachia alone or with up to 5 players in online co-op freeplay
• Bump In The Night: A narrative-driven story (1–3 players) following the Appalachian Investigation Group’s hunt for the truth
• Experience The Legends: Encounter unique, intelligent creatures based on real Appalachian folklore and sightings
• Dark-Bluegrass Symphony: An original score blending haunting melodies with Appalachian roots

Blue Ridge Hunting is currently in development for PC. Prospective investigators can wishlist the game on Steam and support the Kickstarter campaign now to help bring Appalachian cryptid hunting to life.

Japanese psychological horror about isolation and slipping reality is ready to disturb players

Watford, United Kingdom, 7 May 2026 – Ahead of June’s Steam Next Fest, horror specialists Wired Productions and Japanese developer Serafini Productions have released a brand-new demo for BrokenLore: DON’T LIE, available today on Steam.

BrokenLore: DON’T LIE is a first-person psychological horror game where you step into the life of Junko, where lies, medication and fragile bonds blur the line between reality and nightmare.

Abandoned by her mother and raised by a father who was always present but never truly there, Junko grew up learning to retreat rather than connect. When those rare attempts at connection ended in rejection and humiliation, she withdrew completely.

As her mental state deteriorates, the world around her begins to shift into spaces shaped by memory and emotion, where past experiences resurface and refuse to stay buried.

The brand new demo is available now on Steam as part of the lead-up to Steam Next Fest

BrokenLore: DON’T LIE coming to PC, Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. More information can be found via the official Discord and Wired site.

Catania, 7th May 2026 – Stormind Games announces that Cissy Jones and Maggie Robertson will voice the main characters of Remothered: Red Nun’s Legacy. Following the collaboration with Akira Yamaoka, legendary composer of the Silent Hill series, the project continues to expand its roster of high-profile collaborations.

Cissy Jones will portray Susan, the game’s protagonist, bringing her acclaimed emotional depth and range to a complex and central role. BAFTA Games Award for Performer winner, Jones is known for standout performances in titles such as Firewatch, Life is Strange, and The Walking Dead, establishing her as one of the most respected voices in the industry.

“Susan is a character who exists between ‘strong female character’ and ‘damsel in distress.’ She’s learning what her strength looks like and how far she will go to protect the people she loves. The thing that’s been really fascinating about this whole process is how intense the script is. I don’t know what they’re drinking over at Stormind Games, but they really put her through some stuff.” said Cissy Jones.

Maggie Robertson will voice the Red Nun, a mysterious and unsettling figure at the core of the game’s identity. Winner at The Game Awards for her iconic portrayal of Lady Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Village, Robertson is the voice behind one of the most iconic villains in modern horror, bringing a powerful and instantly recognizable presence to Remothered.

“It was an absolute pleasure working with Stormind Games. They were very collaborative and open to exploring the character together, which allowed us to really shape the Red Nun across different moments of her life. She is very interesting, and we get to learn a lot more about her backstory in this game. Her story is rooted in intense trauma, and understanding her ‘why’ is what makes her compelling,” said Maggie Robertson.

With this cast, Stormind Games further strengthens the game’s narrative and cinematic identity, placing performance at the center of an experience built on psychological tension, mystery, and unease.

The announcement video with the actresses’ interviews is online:

Additional updates will follow in the coming weeks. 

The game is scheduled for release by the end of 2026 on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, and Xbox Series X/S, including physical editions for Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5.

Fifth chapter concludes liminal labyrinth

Buenos Aires, Argentina, May 7th, 2026 – Indie developer Montraluz, in partnership with publisher Tlön Industries, are proud to announce that the fifth and final episode of their cult favorite surreal body-cam psychological horror game Dreamcore will arrive on May 21st for all platforms. Entitled Dead Mall, this concluding episode takes players through an abandoned 1980s inspired shopping center.

Dead Mall lets players loose on a nightmarish plaza with all the staples of childhood shopping, but contorted into an uncanny ordeal. Delve into its subliminal arcade, parking lot, food court, and bevy of isolated shops. You can take your first glimpse of Dead Mall in its trailer below:

Since Dead Mall adds significantly more content to the game, the cost of Dreamcore will rise from $14.99 to $17.99. However, anyone who buys Dreamcore before May 21st will receive Dead Mall at no additional cost! 

Since Dreamcore initially launched last January it has released two other expansions, The Playrooms and Liminal Hotel. In the year plus since its original launch, Dreamcore has amassed a 4.8/5 average review score from Xbox players and a “Very Positive” average Steam user rating across over 1,400 reviews.

“Dead Mall, like other chapters of Dreamcore, takes something seemingly familiar and mundane and twists it into an unrecognizably ‘other’ vision,” said Valentín Iribarren, Game Creator at Montraluz. “We always promised five chapters for Dreamcore, and knew that some players were waiting for the whole game to be finished before jumping in, so we’re happy to say we can finally deliver on that promise on May 21st. We’ve been really moved by the reception to Dreamcore since its initial launch, and that’s inspired us to want to make the best concluding episodes possible.”

More about Dreamcore:
Dreamcore sets players loose to explore a multitude of extraordinary, expansive worlds based around labyrinths of liminal spaces. Loosely inspired by the “backrooms” memes, Dreamcore offers a one-of-a-kind experience to probe these nonlinear realms, with each world featuring a unique puzzle players must solve in order to locate its exit.

Developed in Unreal Engine 5, each of Dreamcore’s worlds offers a hazy, twisted memory of the 1980s, complete with the grainy aesthetic of found footage VHS tapes. Navigate intricately linked structures and captivating landscapes, where every environment encourages unparalleled adventures and exploration. Each map presents a vast range of possibilities, delivering entirely distinct experiences.

The SimRacing Expo will run May 22-24 in the Convention Center, Charlotte, NC.

For 25 years, D-BOX has been a haptic technology expert, combining precision motion systems with dedicated haptic design that translate digital content into physical sensations – allowing users to feel movement, weight transfer, vibrations, and texture in real time with high-fidelity, durable, performance-driven systems. 

D-BOX’s technology combines high-precision motion hardware (actuators) that reproduce movement in real time and control software that translates telemetry data and haptic effects into precise motion cues. It is deployed in more than 1,100 theater screens in over 40 countries, is used in simulation and training for professional environments, and turns simracing simulators into physical driving experiences where drivers can feel how the car behaves in real time.

“Sim racing has gotten incredibly advanced over the last few years,” said President and Chief Executive Officer of D-BOX, Naveen Prasad. “At this level, it’s not just about what you see anymore – it’s about what you feel, and that’s where things really start to change. What we’re seeing today is a shift in how simulation is experienced. Motion is no longer an enhancement – it’s becoming a fundamental part of delivering credible, high-performance simulation.”

“We’re proud to partner with D-BOX for the first-ever North American SimRacing Expo,” said Michael Wamser, CEO of SimRacing Expo organisers, South West Vision USA. “We’ve worked together for many years on the European expo, where D-BOX’s technology has impressed attendees and media guests.

Step into the beat of a new rhythmic platform adventure coming to Steam, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch

Bologna, Italy, May 7th, 2026 | Indie developer Green Flamingo is excited to share that their debut action platformer, Spanky “Bat-a-Swing,” will be coming to Steam, Nintendo, and Xbox. The PC demo is now available, and a Kickstarter campaign will launch later this year. Enjoy a 1930s hand-animated 3D action platformer where players can fall into the rhythm of smacking enemies to the beat of an electro swing soundtrack.

A City Under Rhythmic Control
Metrognome has seized power as the new mayor of Metronopolis, and the once peaceful city now lives and breathes to the literal beat under his reign. Join Spanky, an inventive bat, on an adventure complete with a roaring electro swing original soundtrack and an art style inspired by classic 1930s cartoons. With audio-reversal cannon speakers as ears, help the determined bat rebel against this new norm. Cut through all the noise and make your way to the Metrotower to put an end to this commotion once and for all. 

Clap, Dash, Attack, Repeat!
Travel through Metronopolis’ three distinct districts: Morguetone, a graveyard district home to ghostly souls of the afterlife. Blue Vines, a jungle-themed district full of exotic animals and monkeys of all kinds. Lastly, at the center of Metronopolis, Nova Nubla, a district renowned for its state-of-the-art industrial design, technology, luxury… and undercover secrets. Each level poses a new challenge with fresh beats, tricky traps, and level-specific mechanics like echolocation and air shafts that will test your precision, sense of rhythm, and ability to adapt. Maintain a steady rhythm to perform a high-scoring attack combo, and explore for gold and hidden collectibles, such as vinyl records to play new tracks on your at-home music player.

Every Fight is a Dance
As you approach Metrognome’s headquarters for the final showdown, you will encounter bosses who guard each district, such as DJ Cobwebb, an eight-legged spider that operates his own mausoleum club. Giant howler monkey Blue Vines councilor, Maestro Bonobotti, a glittering opera star, but not the brightest politician. Lastly, district councilor and cunning secretary Owlivia, the only one in all of Metronopolis able to keep Metrognome in check. All boss battles have multiple phases that switch between music tracks. Read your enemies’ movesets carefully, and you’ll be able to turn every boss battle into the ultimate performance.

Kickstarter Coming Soon
Players ready to bop to the beat can try out the first four levels in the Steam demo: Explore the graveyard district and the opening boss showdown against DJ Cobwebb. The Kickstarter campaign will be launching soon, and followers of the pre-launch campaign can receive a free digital comic.

Game Features

• Original electro swing soundtrack that will leave your feet tapping to the beat.
• Hand-animated visuals of 1930s cartoons, beautifully reminiscent of timeless classics.
• Explore 4 distinct areas, each with its own identity, musical themes, and challenges.

On the Spice side everything’s coming up Tomoaki!

Somehow or other, Tomoaki became the true master of the Kamishiro estate, rather than just serving in the role as a part-time job. Bit by bit, he’s been learning how to conduct himself and perform his duties as head of house. It’s been a very busy time for him, but finally he gets one precious week off. Who will he spend it with and how?

It’s a return to the spicy do-whatever-you-want life of master!

On the Sugar side enjoy a sweet life with a former butler.

Rather than returning to his old life when his time as part-time master ends, the time he spent at the estate drastically changed the course of his life and that of one of his butlers. Enjoy these bitter-sweet “what if” tales of former master and former butler as they’ve developed a relationship that’s more than friendship, but not quite love, continuing each of the butlers’ “romantic” endings from the original game.

Key Features:

• Two flavors of story: spicy and sweet: The “spicy” story continues from the “true” ending of the original game where Tomoaki has inherited the Kamishiro estate, and follows the same format of selecting events on the mansion map.
  On the sugary “sweet” side, follow the romantic endings with the butlers from the original game, but this time from the butlers’ perspectives. How will they navigate their new and complicated relationships with Tomoaki? Or their lives outside the comfort of the estate?
• Includes the bonus “Reminiscence” short story: Unlock the Reminiscence short story and retrace the steps of a certain mysterious young member of the Kamishiro family in the 1950s—what destiny awaits him?
• A variety of quality of life features: Including the updated interface from the Double Edition release of the game, scene replay, and new for the English release a toggle to enable or disable mosaics during adult scenes.
