Garage auction simulator where you turn trash into treasure continues to improve with new features added today
Warsaw, Poland – 22nd January, 2025 – Raccoons Studios and co-publisher BeardedBrothers.Games have released a new update yesterday for their viral hit Storage Hunter Simulator. The new update adds two new headline features and the game will be sold at a 25% discount for the next two weeks. Players will now be able to create their own unique characters with new customisation features that can be applied both when starting a new game and during ongoing games. Modify every element of your character at any time, including their facial appearance, hairstyle, hair and eye colour by approaching one of the mirrors located in the bathroom of each house in the game. The newly added clothing store always allows you to buy new outfits for your character and dress them as you like, adding another layer of customisation for players.
The other big feature in the new update is the addition of collectors to Storage Hunter Simulator. These NPCs are constantly looking for new items to add to their collection. Provide them with the items topping their wishlists and you can gradually earn their appreciation until they eventually reward you with a prize in the form of a unique outfit or valuable statuette related to their area of interest. The number of items that can be delivered in a given week is limited, but it is reset every week. So remember to check every Monday what the collectors are looking for this time.
The new update also includes a number of bug fixes and improvements as Raccoons Studios and BeardedBrothers.Games continue to improve the game based on player feedback during its Early Access period, adding to the recent addition of the much-requested Hard Mode, and with more to come in the future.
In Storage Hunter Simulator, you take risks and fight for garages amongst fierce competition as you compete with other bidders to find hidden treasures that will help you turn a profit. Discover thousands of unique items, use experts and tools to value them, buy and upgrade your own pawn shop and more on your way to building an auction empire.

Footage of the PGA Championship, U.S. Open, The Open, Ranked Matchmaking, MyCAREER advancement, and Skill Trees are all featured in the exhilarating video
The PGA TOUR 2K25 Gameplay Trailer is here! Transporting players to some of the most iconic courses and tournaments on the PGA TOUR alongside cover pros Tiger Woods, Max Homa and Matt Fitzpatrick, as well as rising star Rose Zhang, the trailer shows off enhanced graphics and new game features, including the new EvoSwing mechanic and Perfect Swing.
Iconic Majors, including the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, the U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club, and the 153rd Open at Royal Portrush Golf Club, as well as PGA TOUR tournaments such as the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am at Pebble Beach, THE PLAYERS Championship at TPC Sawgrass, and more are shown in stunning detail, as PGA TOUR pros and custom MyPLAYERS* alike tee off and sink putts. Commentators and crowd reactions celebrate a clean drive onto the fairway, and rebuke a sharp slice into the crowd, while XP bonuses, earned attribute points, and skill tree unlocks reward player progress.
The new EvoSwing mechanic is complemented by new shot types, ball flights, roll physics, and visual improvements. As evident in the trailer, with EvoSwing, a player’s swing is broken down into four components: contact, rhythm, transition and swing path, which are measured and rewarded (or penalised) accordingly. Perfect Swing makes its debut in PGA TOUR 2K25, presenting an all-new difficulty setting that reduces the material impact of external factors on a player’s swing, a truly accessible setting that allows both new and experienced players to enjoy the thrill of hitting fairways and greens like a champion.
For more competitive players, Cross-platform Ranked Matchmaking** returns in PGA TOUR 2K25. This deepens the pool of competition for players who are ready to test their skills and prove their dominance on the “dance floor.”

January 21st, Gliwice, Poland. Yes, we did it! We reached our campaign goal in less than four days, an incredible achievement beyond our imagination. Once again, we can all pack our backpacks, Geiger counters, and stalker’s equipment to return to the Exclusion Zone, as the gamers have spoken even louder!
Add the game to your Steam wishlist to follow the game’s development.
Already, 1,400 backers have supported the project on Kickstarter, and this number is rising every hour. The initial goal of 95,000 EUR has been reached much faster than in the first Chernobylite campaign in 2019, where funding took almost two weeks.
Thanks to this, we can now focus on developing the alternative first-person combat mode, allowing you to play the game in any style you choose. Whether you’re a fan of classic third-person RPGs or modern first-person adventures, you should be comfortable experiencing Chernobylite 2 in a way that is more natural to you.
We’ve also reached our first stretch goals, meaning the additional support allows us to add some extra features and content to the game, including all first-person weapons from the original Chernobylite. Yes, Blaster, Crossbow, and Makarov will be there, alongside other known and beloved “toys”, that will yet again be available in your arsenal.
Also, remember to follow us on our social media (likes, comments, and shares for greater reach are welcome!), and we encourage you to join us on Discord.
So don’t hesitate! Let’s make Chernobylite 2 rock together!

About The Space
The Space exists to enable the arts, culture and heritage sectors to engage audiences using digital and broadcast content and platforms.
Founded in 2013 by Arts Council England and the BBC, we are now an independent not-for-profit organisation. Our role is to fund the creation of new digital cultural content and provide free training, mentoring and online resources for organisations, artists and creative practitioners.
We believe embracing digital is essential to the future of cultural activity. Digital technologies have the power to open up new ways for people to access, participate in, and share, the rich diversity of UK culture. Applying these strategically enables new artistic forms, attracts new audiences and makes cultural experiences democratic and available to all.
The Space prioritises creating new engagement opportunities for people who are currently under-represented in cultural content and across broadcast and digital media.

About Starbound:
You’ve fled your home after an alien attack, only to find yourself lost in space with a damaged ship. Your only option is to beam down to the planet below and gather the resources you need to repair your ship and set off to explore the vast, infinite universe…
In Starbound, you create your own story – there’s no wrong way to play! You may choose to save the universe from the forces that destroyed your home, uncovering greater galactic mysteries in the process, or forego a heroic journey entirely in favour of colonising uncharted planets.
Settle down and farm the land, become an intergalactic landlord, hop from planet to planet collecting rare creatures, or delve into dangerous dungeons and lay claim to extraordinary treasures.
Discover ancient temples and modern metropolises, trees with eyes and mischievous penguins. Make use of hundreds of materials and over two thousand objects to build a sleepy secluded cabin in the woods, a medieval castle, or an underwater arcade.
