BALL x PIT’s massive, transformative Risen Ballbylon expansion is coming to PC, consoles, and mobile on November 12

0

Developed by Kenny Sun and Friends and published by Devolver Digital, two-million-selling roguelite BALL x PIT is a ball-bouncing, time-devouring smash hit – but the journey is far from over. Prepare yourself, and your balls, for paid expansion Risen Ballbylon.
 
Risen Ballbylon is the biggest and most transformative expansion for BALL x PIT yet, adding a wealth of new characters, balls, passives, enemies, bosses, buildings, and levels, dramatically expanding the possibilities of a run and introducing fresh new gameplay mechanics to test even the most hardened veterans of the pit. Will you rise to the challenge?
 
You’re used to the lift descending into the depths of the pit – but now it’s going up. Rise above the abyss to reach Risen Ballbylon, which floats high in the sky above. Each level is a layer of the former city, where the population has been warped by the effects of the meteor.

*NOTE: The content of this expansion is only accessible after completion of the base game.

NEW FRONTIERS
When you ascend to Risen Ballbylon you’ll get to explore 4 new battlefields – each with their own fearsome new bosses – and battle over 40 new enemies. You can also dip into a deep pool of 45 new passives, including Lucky Coin, Eldritch Gauntlet, Vampire’s Kiss, Volatile Explosive, and Relentless Whip. You’ll have to play the expansion to find out what they do.
 
HERO WORSHIP
There are 8 new gameplay-transforming characters to get to grips with in Risen Ballbylon, including the Sentinel, who can aim in any direction, The Stonewaller, whose balls warp to the other side the first time they hit a wall, and The Right Hand Man, whose balls deal double damage when they hit the right wall but only half when they hit the left.
 
BALLS TO THE WALL
Risen Ballbylon also adds 24 new balls to the game to experiment with and create powerful, game-changing fusions. These include the Beast ball, which latches onto enemies and damages them until they die, the Kaiju ball, which causes earthquakes, the Misfortune ball, which curses enemies, and the deadly, spiky Hedgehog ball.
 
BASE INSTINCT
Base-building has also been radically expanded in Risen Ballbylon, with 20 new buildings to expand your village. Build a Floating Fortress, Crystal Monolith, Soup Kitchen, Circus Tent, Fission Chamber, and other strange structures as you expand your base and mine for crystals – a new resource that adds additional complexity to the game’s economy.
 
BALL x PIT: Risen Ballbylon rises November 12 on all platforms for $6.99.

WANE, an Occult Turn-Based RPG Where Your Memory is Your Map, Revealed in the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct

0

Journey through the fractured memories of a fading archaeologist as you build your party and uncover the secrets buried within the realm of Ravelle. 

Istanbul, Türkiye (September 20, 2026) – You’ve been invited inside a haunted mind, as Metis Creative unveils WANE, an occultish turn-based RPG set against the backdrop of an industrial noir world. Published in partnership with Shoreline Games, WANE follows Declan Wayne, a fading archaeologist tormented by his fading sense of self. As Declan turns inward, he must traverse the corridors of his mind, a labyrinth drawn from memory, distorted by regret, and guarded by what he cannot let go.

Watch the reveal trailer:

“Metis Creative has the kind of imagination that makes you want to pay attention to whatever they’re working on next,” said Keith Kawamura, CEO of Shoreline Games. “Having already had the chance to work with the team once before, we knew firsthand just how thoughtful and inventive they are. WANE is a fantastic example of that creativity, and from the moment we saw what the team was creating, we knew we wanted to help bring it to players. We’re thrilled to be partnering with Metis again and finally begin sharing WANE with the world.”

“Metis Creative has found success in our ability to produce high-quality, original visuals that match a deep and engaging narrative across several award-winning tabletop games,” said Sarp Duyar, CEO of Metis Creative. “Our vision with WANE is to continue that tradition across a totally new medium for us and push the boundaries of our creativity.”

In WANE, players take on the role of Declan Wayne, a fading archaeologist whose fractured memories have transformed his cerebral realm of Ravelle into a shifting labyrinth of trauma, obsession, and regret. Players recruit adventurers, build a three-person party, and descend through three distinct biomes in grid-based tactical combat shaped by attrition, random encounters, and boss battles.

Between expeditions, players return to an antiquarian shop to appraise and sell relics, upgrade facilities, and fund the next run. As the roguelike cycle continues, new synergies, shortcuts, and permanent buffs open up while the story unfolds through repeated journeys deeper into Ravelle.

Key Features of WANE:

  • Memory is the Map – Ravelle is a labyrinth built from Declan’s deteriorating memories, with his defining moments, traumas, obsessions, and regrets shaping the path forward… and reshaping it entirely. 
  •  Tactical Turn-Based Combat – Fight through grid-based tactical encounters built around positioning, cover and line of sight, with the uncertainty of percentage-based attacks. 
  • Rule of Three – Descend through the Ravellian Sanatorium, the Palace of Arvanshah, and the Death Pilgrimage to Erabel, each of the three biomes connected to Ravelle’s history and Declan’s fractured memories. 
  • Run the Shop – Bring relics back from expeditions to appraise and auction in Declan’s antiquarian shop, using the proceeds to upgrade facilities and fund future runs. 
  • A Story Told Through Repetition – WANE’s narrative unfolds across repeated expeditions, revealing more of its characters and Declan’s story with each run. 

WANE is currently in development for PC. Additional details and a release date will be announced at a later date.

0

Mobile Gaming Giant Sails Into PC Publishing With An 8-Player Battle Royale Where Poker Hands Become Cannon Fire

Singapore, September 20, 2026 | HABBY.FUN is excited to reveal the cinematic trailer for their latest title Piroker, a mischievous roguelike autobattler where poker turns into pure combat. Hit the high seas and build your crew by wishlisting now and taking part in the exclusive playtest on Steam.

Swashbuckling Fun For Everyone
In this 8-player free-for-all, luck isn’t enough; you need cold calculation to rule the Seven Seas! Select your pirate hero, each equipped with varying starter abilities, then enter the choice phase where you’ll select one special relic treasure that will uniquely alter the power you draw from the deck. Points are assigned and boosted by treasures and exotic fish, then blows are dealt to the lowest-scoring pirates of the round. 

Arena mode lets you take the fight to the high seas! Enjoy asynchronous PvP and battle a ‘ghost fleet ’on your own time, or gather your crew and invite your mates to clash in a real-time lobby.

Yo Ho Ho and a Lot of Different Runs / Endless Voyages Await No two voyages are ever the same. Every run throws new pirates, relics, and mutant fish into the mix, giving you countless ways to build your crew. Assemble classic poker hands like pairs, straights, and full houses to trigger new crew abilities, reroll the shop and hunt for the perfect relic, and watch your strategy evolve with every choice. Read your rivals and spot their weaknesses to exploit every dirty trick you can find.

Chart Your Course to the Top
Piroker gives players plenty of reasons to keep sailing back to the tables with a global matchmaking leaderboard that pits players against other captains from around the world in a race for the Pirate King’s throne. Detailed on-screen stats let players break down their best lineups and revisit their most memorable plays, and every run fills your treasure map of unlockable pirates, skins, and achievements. All of this is only complemented by the hand-drawn nautical world, complete with jaunty accordion melodies, roaring cannon fire, and a cartoony charm that sets the tone for every high-stakes hand.

Gameplay Features:

  • Utilize a series of “illegal” tactics: recruit notorious pirates, capture cursed deep-sea fish, and play legendary cheat hands.
  • 100+ “Treasure” Skills: All pirates draw power from the same deck, creating hundreds of unique playing styles.
  • 60+ Pirate Heroes: Each captain offers a unique starting strategy and economy modifier.
  • Limitless Build Variety: Want to combine a “High-Card Sniper” build with a “Flush Bomber” strategy? The possibilities are endless!
  • 40+ Exotic Fish: These special “treasures” provide permanent, game-breaking buffs offering even more strategic choices.

Take an early look at Piroker ahead of its highly anticipated public launch by participating in the playtest on Steam.

Radioactive Roguelike City-builder Toxic Frontier Unveiled during PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct 2026

0

Play your cards right and you might just survive another night in this post-nuclear hex grid hellscape

Oviedo, Spain – September 20, 2026 – Meteorbyte Studios and Mint Gate Games are glowing with excitement (or is that radiation poisoning?) to reveal their upcoming card-based survival strategy game, Toxic Frontier. Positively oozing with toxic sludge, Toxic Frontier features a crunchy retro aesthetic and worrying slithery shapes.

Played out across a traditional hex grid, you’ll start from a single humble tile and begin your settlement’s perilous pilgrimage into the wastes. Purifying the noxious landscape with each card you place on a tile, you’ll discover synergies that change how each run plays. Just make sure you reach the target score on each level, or you’ll soon run out of cards and your legend in the frontier will come to an abrupt, irradiated end.

As you explore the decimated wilds, you’ll uncover tiles and cards that react in new and unexpected ways to both your cards and the other tiles around them, creating complex and powerful combos. Plan your synergies carefully, and you might just increase your odds of survival from “soon to be mutant chow” to “might make it to the next bowl of rat soup”.

The journey to rebooting civilization is a long and arduous one, and will lead your community across three vastly different biomes, each with their own stories to tell, quests to uncover, and unique mechanics. They each also come with entirely new ways to claim the lives of your hardy band of travellers… if you make it that far in the first place.

Locked underground for generations, tales of the surface have become exactly that; legends passed down via oral tradition of a world filled with sunlight, grass, and non-recycled air. As your band of nuclear nomads sets out to reclaim the wilderness, you will have to make a choice: create a bountiful haven of the wastes, or harness the all-corrupting power of the Toxic Frontier.

Key features of Toxic Frontier:

  • Play the hand you’re dealt: +40 unique cards to unlock and collect
  • Turn the toxic tide: Increasingly complex and potent tile synergies to discover
  • Don’t forget your Geiger counter: New challenges and threats to face in every biome
  • Radioactive replayability: 4 game modes with 2 different story endings
  • Explore the Frontier on the move: Full Steam Deck support

Toxic Frontier will be released on Steam and can be wishlisted now.

Escape From Playtime, the Upcoming Co-Op Survival Horror Game Set in the Poppy Playtime Universe, Gets an October Release Date 

0

The Smiling Critters infest the factory starting October 21st in Steam Early Access

Los Angeles, September 20, 2026 – Today, during the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct, Mob Entertainment revealed an October 21, 2026, release date for Escape From Playtime, a 4-player co-op survival horror extraction game set in the Poppy Playtime universe. 

Launching first into Steam Early Access, the game sends players — alone or with friends — back into the infamous Playtime Co. factory from the perspective of the cute-yet-disturbing Smiling Critters. Tasked with scavenging materials for a mysterious building project that promises salvation, players must work together and follow instructions from an ominous voice lurking in the shadows, all while evading the factory’s most dangerous denizens. 

Escape From Playtime is a co-op survival horror game set deep inside the abandoned Playtime Co. factory. Players take on the roles of the Smiling Critters, the dead-eyed toy line with gaping smiles first introduced in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 3, and explore classrooms, warehouses, testing labs, and the dark corridors connecting them all.

Played solo or with up to four players, each run sends teams into a dynamically changing section of the facility to find and transport resources for a mysterious Voice. The materials are needed to help build a promised home for toys who prove their loyalty and usefulness. Simple enough, except the factory is filled with rejected Playtime Co. creations stalking the halls. Players must search quickly, choose when to split up or stick together, and know when to retreat.

Along the way, players can solve puzzles, uncover clues, scavenge tools, use hiding spots and alternate routes, and turn the factory layout to their advantage. Proximity voice chat adds another risk: communication is essential, but an irresponsible whisper can bring the mission to a brutal end.

As you complete runs, Escape From Playtime reveals a deeper connection to the larger Poppy Playtime story. The Voice promises freedom and a home, but its motives remain unclear. Every resource gathered feeds into something bigger. You are helping build something, but what, and why?

Key Features:

  • Critter Co-Op: Play solo or team up with up to 3 friends in a fight for survival inside Playtime Co. More Critters means more ground covered and more chances for something to go horribly wrong, all enabled with proximity voice chat. 
  • The Voice: A mysterious Voice sends players into the facility to collect scattered parts and resources. Gather what you need, bring it back safely, and try not to ask too loudly who or what you are really working for.
  • Scavenge to Survive: Use whatever the factory gives you to stay alive. Search for tools, uncover clues, find hiding spots, create distractions, and use alternate routes to outmaneuver the rejected Playtime Co. creations stalking the halls.
  • Mini Mode: Crawl, jump, and climb through every nook and cranny of the Playtime Co. factory as a Smiling Critter and experience some of the most iconic Poppy Playtime locations through a new (smaller) set of eyes.
  • Familiar and New: It’s Playtime Co. as you know it, with a twist. The mysterious Voice seems to be altering the factory’s layout, creating procedurally generated environments that change with each run.

EARLY ACCESS

Escape From Playtime is being built with Early Access in mind, giving players a strong core loop at launch while leaving room for the community to help shape future growth. The initial release is planned to include a four-character Smiling Critter roster with four more to unlock, one starter zone, and a core enemy lineup. Future updates are expected to expand the game with new zones, Critters, features, and refinements informed by player feedback.

Hellheart Breaker (PC /Consoles) 2027

0

A unique and fast-paced presentation

Red Dunes Games is showcasing nine exciting titles at Tokyo Game Show, at stand/booth Hall 7, Booth Number: N03, Makuhari Messe, Chiba, Japan, from 17– 21 September 2026, ​ where the media and public will have the opportunity to discover a selection of games from talented development teams.

Among the featured titles will be Hellheart Breaker, a genre-blending classic in the making and the latest creation from BattleBrew Productions, the development team behind the highly acclaimed Cuisineer.

This is a refreshing blend of action, dating sim, dungeon crawling, and roguelite, mixing styles and genres in a compelling animated game! Set in an Asian-inspired Underworld filled with smoke and neon, you awaken in a forgotten room within a bathhouse, soon becoming a new resident of Aashraya, the last remaining city in the Underworld. With no memory of who you are and an ominous prophecy hanging over you, you embark on a journey to uncover your true identity.

The monster girls you choose to date will grant you powerful new abilities, while the ones you leave behind become the formidable bosses standing in your way. In this roguelite setting, you are trapped deep within the Underworld, battling through relentless challenges as you fight your way to freedom. When love and war have no rules, how far will you go to escape?

Aashraya, the world you are within, is a land steeped in history, mystery, and unforgettable characters. Meet diverse figures such as a Naga princess, Oni blacksmith, Kitsune courtesan, and Asuran enforcer, each with their own stories, struggles, and ambitions. Learn powerful abilities, master the elements through the teachings of different clans, and form bonds that may become friendships, rivalries, or something more.

Whether you stand beside the Clan Scions or challenge their beliefs, your choices will shape the fate of Aashraya. As the darkness of the underworld rises, fight to bring an end to this age, becoming either its savior or causing its downfall. With seven clans, multiple endings, extensive weaponry, elemental skill trees, customisation, fishing, and food markets, Hellheart Breaker offers a unique adventure where love, combat, and choice collide.

Features and Facts

  • 7 clans, each with its own agenda
  • 7 different worlds to explore
  • 35 weapons, including weapons such as the jian and katar
  • 7 elemental skill trees
  • Augments to modify your abilities
  • Procedurally generated/roguelite gameplay
  • Multiple endings – 9 planned endings
  • Customisable outfits
  • Home decoration
  • Fishing
  • Food-related activities at the Kappa Market
  • Romance and relationship systems
  • Two versions/”flavours” of the protagonist

I Love it!

One of many standout features is the romance system, where relationships have a direct impact on gameplay. Players can romance different Clan Scions to learn their abilities and elemental powers, or reject their beliefs and potentially fight them. A sequence would be to date a character, gain their powers, then use them to progress through the Underworld.

TOKYO — Sept. 19, 2026 — Legacy Code, the quirky physics simulation game developed by Room 127 and published by Kodansha Game Creators’ Lab, fashions fantastical fighters on PC via Steam in 2027. Go hands-on with the bizarre new creature creator at Tokyo Game Show this weekend, where it was selected as a finalist at “Sense of Wonder Night 2026.”

Manufacture enigmatic machinations called “Mechanimals” by combining all kinds of objects, and set them loose upon the world to do battle…no, really, anything can be combined!Frankenstein together all kinds of parts like heads, arms, and legs with motors, doll heads, character merchandise, electric fans, televisions, 3D puzzles, dentures, chains, cacti…the list goes on! 

Powered by the proprietary “Marionette Engine,” all Mechanimals come to life no matter their design or anatomy. Each powered-up part comes with its own quirks, and may cause Mechanicals to move in unpredictable ways, surprising even Legacy Code’s creators! Marvel at how they manage to amble across the ground and navigate terrain hazards.

Hodgepodge together a battle-ready Mechanimal, then face off against abnormal adversaries, collecting parts from fallen foes after every skirmish for future upgrades. Attach newer, more powerful parts, and head back into the fray in search of greater challenges.

Recognized for its originality, Legacy Code has been selected as one of eight finalists in this year’s Sense of Wonder Night at Tokyo Game Show, handpicked amongst more than 1,500 competing submissions. Finalists are chosen based on their ideas that evoke a sense of wonder and change, and Legacy Code earned its place through its unique concept of creating unpredictable creatures created from scraps.

“We tried our best to create Mechanimals that would break the physics engine, but somehow, every combination of parts led to a living creature,” said Yasuta, Programmer at Room127. “Creativity truly knows no bounds in Legacy Code, and we invite all Tokyo Game Show attendees to try their hand at creating bizarre creatures.”

Legacy Code is planned for release on PC via Steam in 2027 with language support in English, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese. To stay up-to-date with the latest information, follow developer Room 127 on X/Twitter, and wishlist the game on Steam.

The update will also introduce the new Simulacrum Nexus of Mengzhou area and the new permanent event, Blooms for the Shadow.

Two new Resonators, Hsin and Suoming, will be introduced in Version 3.7 through the update’s Featured Resonator Convenes. The update also adds the new weapons Blooming Jadehaven and Unspoken Rue.

Version 3.7 expands the Echo system with five new Echoes: Formrender, Soulfrayer, Skywatch Lancer, Bloomburst Puppet and Jade Nether Serpent. Three new Sonata Effects will also be introduced: Heart of Sworn Vigil, Flash of Electric Reflection and Flower of Tinged Yearning. Players can also obtain the new Phantom Echo, Phantom: Skywatch Lancer.

New Resonator accessories will be available throughout Version 3.7. Hsin’s Accessory: Where Dreams Shine Clear and Rover’s Accessory: Not Even Close will be obtainable through Moonlit Path, while Hsin’s Accessory: Spring in Bloom and Suoming’s Accessory: Glazed Roseate will be available to purchase from the Store. The new WavesLine Look, Hsin and Moon, will also be available to purchase from the Store. 

During Version 3.7, players can progress through Moonlit Path by reaching Moonlit Ring milestones and unlocking the corresponding rewards. Further information about the event rules will be shared through official announcements.

Version 3.7 will feature a wide range of special events, including the Cubie Wars leisure event, Gifts of Waking Moon seven-day login event, Echo Erase leisure event, Dreams in the Capsule area exploration event, Past Dreams, Traced Seals photo collection event, Artisan’s Search featured combat event, and Beyond the Waves: Land of Xuanfang featured exploration event. Players can also participate in the Waking Moon Fishing and Back to Solaris web events.

Gifts of Singing Drizzle will run from 22 October 2026 at 10:00 until 11 November 2026 at 03:59 server time. During the event, players can log in to claim a total of Radiant Tide ×10 and additional rewards.

Version 3.7 introduces Main Quest Replay through the Journey Log. Players will be able to replay main quests from Version 1.1: Thaw of Eons, the Moon-Chasing Festival event from Version 1.2: In the Turquoise Moonglow, and main quests from Version 1.3: To the Shore’s End.

Progress will be saved automatically when players exit Replay Mode, allowing them to resume from where they left off or reset their progress manually. Additional chapters will become available in Replay Mode with the release of future versions.

Echo management has also been streamlined. All unequipped, non-upgraded Echoes within the Echo Backpack that share the same Echo type, Sonata Effect and Mainstat will automatically stack into a single backpack item. Each backpack item can hold up to 999 Echoes.

During automatic stacking, Echoes will be marked according to the following order of priority: Locked, Discarded and Unmarked.

The Suggest screen for Echo Recommendation and the Suggest menu for Echo Equipment will now provide Resonance Mode-specific Echo set recommendations for Resonators with two Resonance Modes. When a frequently used set matches the recommended set, the corresponding Resonance Mode icon will also be displayed.

The Camera System receives a major upgrade in Version 3.7 with the addition of Handheld and Selfie Modes. Selfie Mode includes several adjustable poses and expressions, while Tripod Mode now offers a more freely controllable drone perspective.

New camera tools, including Reference Lines, Quick Focus and Lens Templates, provide greater control over image composition. Players can also adjust environmental settings such as Time, Weather and Foliage Wind Direction through the Environment tab. Global Filter parameters can be adjusted directly from the Camera screen, while lighting templates can be selected to change the lighting effects applied to the current Resonator.

Team management has also been expanded, increasing the number of available team setups to 20. A new 3D Team Setup Mode allows players to switch between 2D and 3D display modes, while new Team Management options allow team setups to be reordered and named for easier organisation. Some devices may not support 3D display mode, with further information to be shared through official announcements.

Version 3.7 will begin a limited test of Tiered Client Resource Downloads on PC, iOS and Android. During the test, eligible PC players can choose between UHD, HD and SD resource tiers, while eligible mobile players can select either HD or SD. Each tier offers a different balance of download size and graphics quality, allowing players to select the option best suited to their device specifications and needs.

As the feature requires significant changes to the game client, it will be rolled out gradually while the development team monitors player feedback and continues to make further optimisations.

The Version 3.7 preview also revealed Solaris Starry Stage, a special programme celebrating fan creations, alongside Wuwa Tappo, the upcoming Wuthering Waves Desktop Pet Software. New merchandise created in collaboration with RIBOSE was also unveiled, including painted prototypes of Tea Break Moments chibi figures featuring Jinhsi and Changli, with further details to be shared through official channels.
