400+ Agricultural Machines in Total

Packed with horsepower and authenticity, Farming Simulator 25 features more than 400 machines & items from over 150 top international brands. The roaring Garage Trailer highlights a high-powered selection like the John Deere S700 Series combine harvester with up to 625 hp, or the Case IH Steiger 715 Quadtrac with the power of 778 horses under the bright red hood.

With a focus on details, the close-ups in the trailer emphasize the realistic digitization of machines. Starting November 12th, agriculturists choose from their favorite brands like Case IH, CLAAS, Fendt, John Deere, Kubota, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Valtra, and many more.

Hand Tools & Consumables

Branded items are not limited to the garage but can also be found in new tool sheds: hand tools, such as chainsaws of various brands, become standalone items that can be stored and shared with other players in co-op multiplayer. Farmers will also need to stock up on bale wrapping supplies, as they will run out. Stretch film or net wraps are also available from brands such as Rani Plast, John Deere, or Fendt, even in different colors.

New Products & Production Chains

In addition to operating tractors, combines, and various tools on the fields, virtual farmers can decide to make more of their harvested crops. New production chains and products become available, adding more variety to the logistics aspect of Farming Simulator 25.

A new cement factory opens its doors as large construction projects require cement. On a smaller scale, farmer’s markets require a variety of produce – a lot of which is grown in greenhouses, like spring onions, garlic, or chili. Only if vendors are supplied, a lot of the shops in Hutan Pantai will open to sell all the goods that players deliver.

Farming Simulator 25 will be released on November 12th for PC, Mac, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S. Pre- orders are available now on selected channels. Visit the official Farming Simulator website.

Build a cozy rooftop base of your dreams and uncover the secret behind the fall of humanity

SEATTLE – November 4, 2024 – I Am Future: Cozy Apocalypse Survival, the cozy rooftop post-apocalyptic survival base builder from developer Mandragora and publisher tinyBuild, launches into 1.0 on PC via Steam on Wednesday, November 13, 2024. 

I Am Future doubles down on its unique vision – what if survival games were relaxing and not stressful? What if post-apocalypse could be without all the doom and gloom? The game invites players to build a cozy rooftop base of their dreams on top of a skyscraper amidst a flooded megapolis. 

Players can create, decorate and expand their camp while farming, fishing and cooking to their heart content. They can turn old-world devices into useful gadgets with a satisfying manual dismantling mechanic, hire cute robots to automate chores around the camp, or explore a serene post-apocalyptic city, make new friends, and find out the secret behind the fall of humanity.

Since its Early Access launch in August 2023, I Am Future has sold more than 100.000 copies on Steam, garnered great user reviews with 89% Very Positive score, and received four major content updates along with numerous improvements and fixes. 

Over the past year, the game introduced a slew of new features and mechanics like solar-powered electrical grids, relationships with NPCs, weather effects, new explorable areas, camp decorations, multiple new buildings and characters, and more. I Am Future supports controllers and is Steam Deck Verified.

“This is somewhat of a personal project for me.’ – says Eugene Kisterev, CEO at Mandragora – ‘I started developing I Am Future by moving from a big city to the countryside. I really wanted to convey the simplicity and serenity of life, which is sometimes lacking in a rapidly developing world. Over a year ago, I Am Future was released in Early Access, and since then, we have continued to develop the game, evolving and nurturing the original concept. Like any person on Earth, each of our players already contains the source of their own future, and we hope the game instills this reassuring and inspiring feeling. We are happy to invite new and returning players to version 1.0, which adds exciting content and provides a finale to our story mode.’

New York, NY  (November 4, 2024) – Infogrames — a game publishing and distribution subsidiary of Atari — today announced the acquisition of the Bread & Fred publishing rights in an agreement with Apogee Entertainment. Bread & Fred is a popular co-op game developed by Sand Castles Studio. 

Bread & Fred released for PC on Steam on May 23, 2023 where it garnered positive industry and player reviews. Exactly a year later, on May 23, 2024 a version was released for the Nintendo Switch. Infogrames will work with the Sand Castles Studio to bring more content and updates to the game, as well as extend the offering to the PlayStation and Xbox platforms in the coming months.

Bread & Fred is a casual but challenging co-op platformer where players must work together to help two cute and funny penguins, Bread and Fred, jump and climb to the top of a snowy mountain. The title has gained a loyal following as much for its ability to reduce friends to a fit of giggles or tears as for its unique gameplay mechanics, adorable characters and friendly NPCs.

“Bread & Fred rose from the indie ranks, representing a level of success that is possible with a small, talented team with a passionate vision.” said Scott Miller, CEO of Apogee. “We see this property as having many years of success ahead of it, expanding its appeal with new characters, gameplay modes, and its unique style of rage humor that has led to 10’s of millions of views on TikTok and other platforms.”

Players steer the penguin pals through an exasperating and sometimes maddening climb that requires precision with every jump. Tethered together, the characters can use their momentum to swing each other onto higher and higher ledges. But forget to anchor and if one falls they will pull the other down with them.

Solo players make their way up the mountain as Greg, who must use a rock on a rope (named Jeff), instead of a penguin pal, to swing his way uphill.

“Bread & Fred is a rare gem that casual gamers can sit down and enjoy with their hardcore platforming friends,” said Infogrames Manager, Geoffroy Châteauvieux. “This is a great opportunity for Infogrames to publish a successful game and help continue to grow its loyal fan base by expanding distribution. We are looking forward to continuing to work with Sand Castles Studio to support Bread & Fred’s long term development plans.”

Bread & Fred is the third title in the Infogrames’ portfolio, which include Totally Reliable Delivery Service and Surgeon Simulator. 

About Infogrames

Infogrames’ purpose is to acquire IP and publish games that fall outside the core portfolio of IP associated with the Atari brand. With the launch of Infogrames, Atari is reviving a legacy brand known for game development and global distribution in the ‘80s and ‘90s.

Infogrames intends to actively manage its catalog of titles by expanding digital and physical distribution, and developing new collections and sequels. Consistent with Atari’s approach, Infogrames sees game preservation as a core component of its mission.

(OCCULT HQ) Nov. 4, 2024 – Take your role at the helm of the End of The World in Worship’s hands-on Steam demo available from today until the game’s release in early 2025. Worship will kick off the Save & Sound Festival—an online event featuring sales and demos on Steam—today at 10 a.m. PST.

Behold the grotesque delight that awaits in an all-new trailer released today

The demo, teeming with an hour of eldritch horrors and sacrificial rites, is the first taste of the world of Worship. As a cult leader, you must gather your devout, converting new souls to your cause to feed the insatiable hunger of the unseen gods. As you grow your following, you will find your jolly followers serve many purposes, all splendidly sinister. While this demo supports lone souls only, Worship will launch early next year with four-player co-op, inviting you and your chosen cultists to reign together.

They will purge heretics who stand in your way, offer their blood to restore your strength, and aid in unraveling puzzles. Finally, kneel at the altar and pray for a Test of Faith. Complete it, and you will bring the world one trembling step closer to the end of days as you gain more power.

Worship takes players into a realm of unspeakable horrors, where blasphemy reigns supreme and the macabre is not just celebrated, but rewarded. In the company of up to four cultists, bring chaos to the world in blood-soaked mayhem, where every moment is drenched in the thrill of your sinister pursuits.
