Use puny humans to manage your spaceship and fend off alien assaults in Hull Rupture’s first Steam playtest, going on now!

SEATTLE –April 23, 2026 –Earth is gone. But revenge can still be yours! At today’s Second Wind Games Showcase, developer Konfa Games (Despot’s Game, Despotism 3k) and indie publisher tinyBuild revealed Hull Rupture, a new base management-meets-tower defense roguelite fueled by the power of the human spirit (and other human parts). As the rogue AI Despot, you’ll use puny humans as a renewable resource to defend your spaceship from relentless hordes of aliens in this strategic action game where every decision has lasting consequences.

Don’t let those humans go to waste! Experience Hull Rupture for yourself by signing up for the game’s new playtest, live now on Steam.

Hull Rupture is the ultimate base and resource management game, pitting you against increasingly deadly onslaughts of aliens as you fly across the galaxy in humanity’s last weapon, a living vessel of destruction commanded by the AI Despot with a crew of meatbag personnel to assist. Explore the cosmos, manage your spaceship, and repel increasingly lethal alien assaults while maximizing every resource at your disposal. Even the humans. Especially the humans. While supplies last.

“We loved the reception our previous games got, but Hull Rupture is us swinging for something bigger. More depth, more ambition, and honestly, we think it’s the most engaging thing we’ve made so far,” said Nikolay Kuznetsov, Game Director at Konfa Games. “While our past games explored different perspectives of Despot, the AI that enslaved humanity, he is finally leaving his cramped ‘childhood home,’ Earth, to take on the Galactic Union in deep space! It’s also a bit of a personal milestone for us as a studio. We’ve grown a lot, and this game reflects that.”

Key Features

• Humans Are A Resource:Earth is gone. Your ship is one of humanity’s last weapons, a living projectile racing toward the alien homeworld to deliver its final vengeance. To survive the journey, you must keep the ship moving and defend it at all costs. Use all your resources, yes, even the humans, to keep your vessel intact and fulfill your mission. 
• Relentless Tower Defense Warfare: Aliens don’t knock – they rip holes straight through your hull! You know exactly when and where they’ll arrive, but that’s still not enough. Place turrets, traps, barricades and automated defenses to funnel enemies into carefully planned kill zones, and adapt your layout on the fly to counter their ever-growing threat. 
• Choose Your Consequences:Where you go and what you decide shapes your run, from risks to rewards. Trade safety for power, accepting harsher waves for better gains, but be careful not to lock yourself into choices you live to regret. Different ship models with varying layouts and systems can further impact how each situation unfolds (or unravels).

LOS ANGELES – APRIL 23, 2026 – Netmarble, a leading developer and publisher of high-quality games, has released the first major update for its anime open world RPG The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin. The new update introduces the powerful new hero “Escanor,” along with new story content, a new region, and various in-game events. 

Escanor, one of the most iconic and powerful characters from the original The Seven Deadly Sins series, joins the game as a new playable hero.

To celebrate his arrival, his exclusive engraved equipment and sacred treasure “Divine Axe Rhitta” have been added to the game. 

Main Story Act 13, “The Sun Rises Again,” is now available. The new chapter follows Meliodas and Hawk as they set out to reunite with their allies after realizing that they have been transported into the future and encounter one of the Ten Commandments, Galland. 

The new “My Sweet Gluttony” region  has been introduced as well. Located south of Vanya Plains, this newly added region features unique gatherings, cooking ingredients, and ores that further enrich the open-world exploration experience.

Hyperkinetic arcade action comes to Nintendo’s handheld hybrid May 14th

Tampere, Finland – April 23rd, 2026 – Indie developer Kimmo Lahtinen is bringing his highly acclaimed hyperkinetic twin-stick shooting masterpiece Sektori to Switch 2 on May 14th. Sektori was one of 2025’s most acclaimed games, with a MetaCritic score of 93 on PC and 89 on PS5. Soon Switch 2 users can see what all the fuss is about and chase high scores on the go!

“Sektori began as a small passion project of mine hearkening back to my past life working at Housemarque, but it grew into something bigger than I’d ever imagined,” said developer Kimmo Lahtinen. “I figured it would just be for me and a small sample of other arcade sickos out there, so I was pleasantly surprised to see it rise the ranks of MetaCritic and make several Top 10 lists upon its launch in November. It was utterly surreal to see it gain so much popularity. Yet it’s always been an arcade game at heart and Nintendo has been a home for this kind of game for decades, so it feels like it’s coming full circle to bring Sektori to the Switch 2 on May 14th.”

More about Sektori:

Sektori mixes high-adrenaline gameplay, kaleidoscopic visuals, and hard-hitting techno music coming together to transport you into another state of consciousness! In Sektori’s Campaign Mode, you’ll brave five endlessly evolving stages that reconstitute the layout of the battlefield, the waves of foes you’ll face, and even the bosses – who can radically change based on the stage you encounter them in! Slay your foes, gather their remains, and use them to select an array of upgrades for faster speed, a stronger blaster, additional shields, a bigger boost, more missiles, or a score bonus. As you evolve your ship, you can choose additional power-ups from a series of cards – and even customize your deck of potential perks! Featuring a mix of hand-crafted trials and procedural-generation, Sektori offers endlessly replayable arcade action!

The Campaign is just the beginning, as Sektori features six additional game modes, including a Classic mode, an alternate way to play that includes a wide array of mutators to reconfigure your experience into something wholly unpredictable; Surge, where players rapidly swap between underpowered and cartoonishly overpowered; Crash, where enemies can only be defeated by dashing; Assault, where you choose when to up the ante of incoming waves against a dwindling clock; Gates, where enemies can only be harmed by crossing rotating laser posts; and a good old-fashioned Boss Rush. Whether you want to perfect a scripted run, or prefer endlessly randomization, there’s something in Sektori to suit your old school arcade desire!
