Grow a Criminal Empire in the ‘High Society’ Update, Available Now for The Boss Gangster: Criminal Empire on PC via Steam Early Access

Tripwire Presents, the publishing division of Tripwire Interactive, and independent Turkish developer BEF Games today announced the launch of the free ‘High Society’ update for their open world action-simulation and management game, The Boss Gangster: Criminal Empire on PC via Steam Early Access. The update introduces a new drug cultivation system to the game, expands real estate and street crime gameplay options, and makes improvements to night club management in addition to a range of bug fixes and other improvements. The title will be discounted during the Steam Spring Sale beginning March 19 at 5pm GMT / 6pm CET, and up-and-coming bosses can keep their eyes on the store page for additional sales information.

The ‘High Society’ update introduces a new way to grow a criminal empire – drug cultivation. Aspiring Bosses begin their journey by collecting seeds in the open-world and launching a small grow operation from a rented room. With time, effort, and careful cultivation, they can expand into secret grow houses on the path to building a full-scale drug empire. Players now have more real-estate options at their fingertips and can buy, rent, or lease hotel rooms, apartments, and other locations to be used for production, safehouses, or territory expansion, perfect for when temporary drug production is needed but funds for new locations are low. Additionally, the update adds more options to automate aspects of night club management along with a new black market and expanded street crime gameplay.

For full details and a look at planned content updates on the road to 1.0, visit the game’s official Steam News feed. The publisher also released a new trailer showcasing the new content and features in the ‘High Society’ update.

Four legendary warriors. Countless battles. One ultimate victor.

May 8, 2026World of Tanks Modern Armor invites players to step onto the battlefield alongside some of history’s most formidable commanders in the all-new WARRIORS event. Rise to the challenge and collect a series of epic tanks in the all-new Battle Bracket, a community-driven tournament where every match counts.

From May 12 through June 1, players will rally behind iconic military figures from across the centuries. Tankers can choose to carry the banner for one of four champions: Georg von Frundsburg, Meng Tian, Marcus Claudius Marcellus, and Minamoto no Yoshiie.

This three-week community event puts players behind a new warrior each week, battling in head-to-head showdowns. Each clash builds toward the finals, where the two weekly winners face off for ultimate supremacy.

Battles and challenges completed by the player will boost their champions, fueling the larger war driven entirely by player interaction. The historical warrior with the most Honor advances in the Battle Bracket, making every match a tactical contribution to their champion’s endgame.

Four new premium tanks are available to enter the fray, each one beautifully rendered in the style of the champion they represent:

  • Reiter: This heavily armored juggernaut is a post-war era medium tank with thick armor and high penetration ability. It takes control of the frontline and will never relent.
  • Hatamoto: Escalation era medium fitted with an ATGM launcher and a 105MM gun. Silent and stealth, it takes to the high ground from a distance to deliver fiery damage from above.
  • Ruishi: Unleashed from the East, this beast is an aggressively fast tier VIII tank destroyer. High penetration backed by rocket boosters makes it a deadly predator that moves quick and strikes hard.
  • Praetor: This tier IX Heavy tank is fast, fortified with thick armor and incredibly adaptable in a fight. With massive damage and the ability to get a new angle on the battle, thanks to its 10-degree gun depression, this gladiator is a force to be reckoned with.

For the first time in World of Tanks Modern Armor, you can acquire powerful Ultimate 2D Commanders for each of the four warriors along with a new 3D commander.

  • Ultimate 2D Commanders: Fully unlocked with all 9 Skill slots + 30% XP boost.

Get them through Warriors War Chests or earn Standard versions via Community Challenges.

  • Germanic Knight Commander: The WARRIORS event also brings a new fully rendered 3D commander, Ulrich der Wieseljäger.

The event also features the return of Letters of Gratitude, this time as WAR SEALS. Available online, players can send rewards and encouragement to each other in support of their warriors.

On May 12, recruit your Commanders. Choose your champion. Fight for glory.

Psychological Horror Sequel Dread Neighbor Shatters Safety and Reality on PC Today

HANGZHOU, China – 8 May 2026 – Dread Neighbor, the first-person psychological horror game and sequel to Dread Flats from indie studio ghostcase, conjures a malicious, unseen force onto PC via Steam today.

Check out the thrilling new trailer here.

Step into the unsettling reality of a young woman living alone in a dilapidated apartment building. Manage the sickening feeling of constantly being watched from every corner of the room in an intense, heart-pounding adventure inspired by modern Chinese horror media.

An unnerving aura pervades every moment of existence, as expected, everyday surroundings slowly warp into an unfamiliar scene. Experience a dread-inducing progressive loop system that corrupts any semblance of safety and realism in a creepy, atmospheric environment.

Escape a relentless assailant in thrilling chase scenes while attempting to unravel a chilling narrative from multiple victims’ perspectives. Uncover what really lies beneath the fear by piecing together a series of eerie events to reach three unexpected conclusions, including the true ending.

“For this project, we really honed in on the suffocating feelings of fear and paranoia to craft an immersive horror experience,” said developer ghostcase. “Players will need to keep their composure while navigating familiar environments gradually (and sometimes jarringly) distorting into something much more sinister.”

Dread Neighbor is available now on Windows PC via Steam for $5.99/€6.15/¥790, with English, Simplified Chinese, French, German, Spanish (Spain), Russian, Japanese, Thai, Traditional Chinese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), and Portuguese (Portugal) language support.

Curso of the Crimson Stag for PlayStation 5

Curse of the Crimson Stag story

Feeling stuck in her backwater hometown, a teenager named Brit jumps at the chance for a life-changing adventure: to assist in the making of a documentary about the derelict Whiteroot Hotel. The once luxurious hotel stands abandoned in the American Northwest, with local folklore spinning tales of ghostly hauntings and of angry spirits being the reason for its desertion.

Once built by a wealthy businessman hoping to bring tourism to the area, Whiteroot Hotel ended up being the stage for a series of mysterious deaths and the complete downfall of its owners. Abandoned and left to rot, its walls have held the secrets of its past for 18 years.

The people of the area, with a strong connection to local myth and folklore, tell of an entity known as the Crimson Stag – a protective spirit of sorts – which supposedly inhabits the dark woods of the area. Whether it’s local superstition or not: Everything about this seems like a perfect setup for a documentary and a chance for Brit to be discovered.

Once Brit starts her exploration of the hotel, as instructed by professional ghost hunter Emily, it quickly becomes clear that she is in over her head. The Whiteroot Hotel does not surrender its secrets easily and, whether it is supernatural forces or dark machinations, the Curse of the Crimson Stag soon threatens to claim her as well.
