The viral game that blew up as the most-played Next Fest Demo, with over 6 million demo players, is OUT NOW! 

İstanbul, Türkiye – September 2, 2026. It is time for your friendships to take the ultimate test! Today, Lefto Studio launches its viral game, BOMBANANA! onto Steam!

Available now for $7.99/€7.99/£7.15 with a limited-time 20% launch discount, BOMBANANA! launches with over 1 million wishlists and a brand-new trailer showcasing its stylish new art direction. 

The game has come a long way from its humble demo, originally skyrocketing in popularity thanks to its universally simple to understand concept: 3 monkeys, 1 Blind, 1 Deaf and 1 Mute try to defuse a bomb. Every player sees, hears, and can do something different. How they will work together is up to them, and there’s not one right way. 

In the weeks since, the developers have been hard at work elevating the game’s quality to merit their audience’s enthusiasm. The game launches with significant upgrades to its features, including: 

• 3 Game Modes: Campaign, Endless and Custom 
• New Environments which include different hazards and interactions to navigate
• New Puzzles and Modifiers to keep each game feeling fresh and unique
• Complete Monkey Overhaul, which includes emotes for everyone, voice synced animations, new player interactions (including slapping)
• A Fresh New Creative Direction: the game has a stylish new art direction, which stays true to the original spirit while carving its own unique niche 
• Gameplay Improvements, including server browsing and room codes, 
• The usual bells and whistles, controller support, Steam Deck support, achievements and even a colourblind mode

About the game:

Work together as a 3-player co-op team – no more, no less. Exactly three monkeys required! BOMBANANA! Requires on-the-go adaptation. Each bomb has different modules, different rules, different kinds of panic. 

Communication is key, and everyone has a different idea of what exactly ‘good’ communication is. Prepare for lots of yelling, desperate gesturing and silly shenanigans where each run is a frantic and hilarious race against the clock!

Cool Stats:

• 1 Million Wishlists
• #1 Demo for Steam Next Fest 2026 
• 6 Million Demo Players
• Second Most Played Demo on Steam June-August

About the Team:

Lefto Studios is an independent development team from Istanbul, Türkiye. Headed by Ufuk Girit, the Lefto team members have worked on similar titles such as Liars Bar and We Are So Cooked. BOMBANANA!’s viral success won the heart of many players, and reassured the team that there’s still a desire for more fun and chaotic co-op games.

Watford, UK – September 2nd, 2026: Indie publisher Wired Productions and BAFTA-nominated solo developer Tomas Sala says AHOY as ShipShaper launches today into Steam Early Access. The creative shipbuilding sandbox invites players to build, shape and sail extraordinary vessels across the waters of the Great Ursee. 

The launch celebrates the next chapter in Wired Productions and Tomas Sala’s long-standing partnership, following the The Falconeer and Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles, with the pair recently signing a new seven-year publishing agreement.

The deal gives Tomas the freedom to keep exploring the Falconeer universe, alongside whatever weird, wonderful and unexpected ideas come next. Wired will be right there with him for the journey.

Watch the launch trailer:

ShipShaper is built around one beautifully simple idea: designing ships should feel good. At the helm, Tomas Sala is doing what he does best: taking a deeply personal creative obsession and turning it into an invitation for everyone else to create something of their own.

There is no combat, management or prescribed way to build. No intimidating 3D tools, rigid grids or correct answers. Players simply pull, push, bend and shape forms into fishing vessels, tall ships, ironclads, submarines or glorious nautical creations no sensible shipyard would ever approve.

Once a vessel is ready to leave the shipyard, players can admire it bobbing on the horizon, place it inside a bottle or handcrafted diorama, export it into Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles or take the complete 3D model into another creative project. Models can also be exported and prepared for 3D printing using external software, depending on the design and printing method.

ShipShaper’s free commercial licence allows developers, modders, makers and other creators to use their designs in personal and commercial projects. Models are already appearing in small independent games.

Early Access features include:

• Free-form building
• Sailing!
• Responsive shaping
• Expanding library of details and props, for example historical guns
• Steam Workshop integration
• Export FBX 3d files with a license to use how you see fit
• Export to Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles

“Sometimes we all imagine our own Fortress with our mind’s eye, I made a game for that already. I thought it was time we had a tool to imagine a Flagship to go with that.” said Tomas Sala, creator of ShipShaper. “I’ve been moving closer and closer to trying to reproduce the things I enjoy, that give me that natural high of creativity, making 3D ships is something that brings a lot of that together. Deconstructing my own process and tools and distilling them into something that’s enjoyable in an explorative and creative way, but with sails and naval artillery tacked on.”

Leo Zullo, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Wired Productions, said:
“ShipShaper is Tomas at his best: creative, unpredictable and unlike anything else out there. Early Access puts it where it belongs: in players’ hands, letting them build, experiment and help shape what comes next. We’ve backed Tomas since The Falconeer, and we’re not stopping anytime soon. Today, though, it’s simple: ShipShaper is out. Go build something brilliant.”

ShipShaper is out now in Early Access on Steam for $8.99, with a 10% launch discount available for a limited time.

Build it. Shape it. Sail it.

Acquisition brings established development capabilities and console publishing infrastructure to PIKO’s growing portfolio of video game IP

ANDORRA / SAN ANTONIO, TX — September 1, 2026 — PIKO Interactive announced today the acquisition of 7 Raven Studios, an independent video game developer and publisher with 20 years of experience developing and releasing games across console, PC, mobile, and retro platforms.

The acquisition represents an important step in PIKO Interactive’s continued growth from a company focused primarily on acquiring, preserving, and publishing classic video games into a broader game development and publishing company.

Through 7 Raven Studios, PIKO plans to establish a more consistent internal development pipeline focused on two areas: creating new original IP and developing entirely new games based on PIKO’s extensive catalog of classic video game properties.

Over the years, PIKO Interactive has assembled a portfolio of hundreds of video game titles and intellectual properties spanning the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s. The addition of 7 Raven Studios gives PIKO an established development operation capable of bringing many of those properties back through new games rather than limiting them to re-releases and preservation projects.

“PIKO has spent years building one of the most diverse catalogs of classic video game IP, and the next step is creating new games with it,” said Eli Galindo, President of PIKO Interactive. “7 Raven Studios gives us an experienced development team and established publishing infrastructure that we can use to accelerate that strategy, while also giving the studio the opportunity to create completely new properties of its own.”

Founded in 2006, 7 Raven Studios has experience developing games across multiple generations of hardware, including Nintendo platforms, PlayStation, Xbox, PC, mobile devices, and classic gaming systems.

7 Raven Studios will continue operating as a development and publishing label under PIKO Interactive, with new projects planned for both modern and retro platforms.

The acquisition also strengthens PIKO’s ability to develop, publish, and manage projects internally, providing a foundation for a larger and more consistent slate of releases in the coming years.

Further announcements regarding the first new projects from PIKO Interactive and 7 Raven Studios will be revealed in the future.

• Introduces a new scent-based Hide and Seek mini-game for Boris and his siblings.
• Interact with Boris’ family in new ways, giving them items to hold and decorations to wear.
• Enter Max’s Cabin and uncover a new mystery.

London, 25th August 2026 – PQube and developer Wild Sheep Studio are thrilled to announce the free Family Fun update for their cozy animal adventure game, Adorable Adventures. Available today, the update brings Boris and his family closer together with new ways for them to interact, alongside a scent-based Hide and Seek mini-game to enjoy. Players can download the update today on PC (via Steam® and Epic Games Store), PlayStation® 5 and Xbox Series X|S, with the content also included in the physical PlayStation® 5 version upon release. Players can get a taste of what’s included in the free update in a newly released trailer!

In the Family Fun update, Boris can interact with his brothers and sisters in all-new ways throughout his adventure! With a tap of the ‘oink’ button, Boris can call his siblings together before handing them items to carry, helping players gather multiple objects while completing tasks. Each sibling can also be dressed up using any decorations they have unlocked throughout the game, allowing every member of Boris’ family to look the part for their adventure.

Once the main quest is complete, players can put their scent-tracking skills to the test in the newly introduced Hide and Seek mini-game. Boris’ siblings will scatter throughout the park, each hiding away and leaving behind their own unique scent to follow. They won’t make it easy though, as unidentified scents can interfere with the trail and throw players off course, and if they spot Boris they will be quick to flee from their hiding spot, turning the search into a high-speed chase.

Elspeth and Rachel teamed up with pop-punk guitarist and startup veteran Kerrod Williams and feminist horror director Simone Kisiel. Together, they realized that the only way to combat the Content Kaiju would be by putting craft, compassion, and creativity first. Enter: Good Story Guild, a writer-founded studio focused on creating video games with dynamic stories, engaging visuals, and heart. It’s the cornerstone of everything we do. We like to think we’re the cure for the common content.

GWAR brings the Antarctica Scumdogs to the gridiron in a blood-soaked new DLC

Chicago, Ill –September 2nd, 2026 – You prayed. GWAR heard. And they’re coming. Digital Dreams Entertainment Inc. is thrilled to announce Mutant Football League 2: Antarctica Scumdogs, a brand-new DLC pack starring the boundary-breaking metal band, launching for PlayStation 5, Steam, and XBOX Series X|S in October 2026.

GWAR tore a new cosmic wormhole in the fabric of space and spilled out into the Mutant Football League 2 universe, where sport is almost as violent as they are — where players are mutilated, referees can be murdered, cheating is encouraged, and sometimes the best defense is simply killing the other team. It feels just like home for GWAR. 

“MFL fans have been asking me for years, “When are you going to get GWAR into the game?” said Michael Mendheim, president of Digital Dreams Entertainment, “Well, the wait is finally over. Football just got louder, bloodier, and a whole lot more GWAR. The Antarctica Scumdogs are coming to MFL2, and we’re making damn sure they’re the deadliest team in the game.”

For more than three decades, GWAR has brought its unique combination of heavy metal, outrageous characters, elaborate mythology, satire, and spectacular stage shows to fans around the world. Now the Scumdogs have found a new stage. And this one has goalposts. 

If you think you know football, you’ve got another thing coming. MFL2 isn’t your typical game of toss the pigskin. It’s a bloodsport of the most brutal kind, where the refs expect dirty play, and a screw-up might just cost you your life. The stadium might kill you, too. It just depends where you’re standing when the buzzsaws start spinning, and the mutant worms start feasting.

It’s the perfect nightmare playground for GWAR, and a crossover MFL2 players have been begging for. Antarctica Scumdogs is the band’s first video game appearance in more than 30 years, and the only time you can be GWAR. The band’s MFL2 team includes:

• Blöthar the Berserker
• BälSäc the Jaws ‘O Death
• JiZMak Da Gusha
• Grodius Maximus
• Beefcake the Mighty
• Sawborg Destructo
• Bonesnapper

GWAR lead singer Blöthar the Berserker commented, “Today, the Antarctica Scumdogs of GWAR take to the frozen tundra of the Mutant Football League, where killing isn’t everything, it’s the ONLY thing! Let the games begin!!” 

In true GWAR fashion, the Scumdogs are built to destroy everything in sight, but mainly you. They are the most physically destructive team in MFL2, designed around a philosophy of brutality and carnage and turning every match into a white-knuckle battle for survival. If you’re playing against GWAR, the score is the last thing on your mind.  It wouldn’t be GWAR without a killer venue. Antarctica Scumdogs introduces a spectacular new stadium steeped in GWAR mythology – along with a few surprises we’re saving for launch.

About GWAR

The story of GWAR is carved across the history of this hopeless planet, but GWAR themselves are not of this world…Their story begins far past Uranus, in the deepest reaches of space, where the beings known as GWAR were warriors in the Scumdogs of the Universe, an elite fighting force in the army of the Master of All Reality. But GWAR proved too reckless and powerful, and after a series of tragic but hilarious blunders, they were banished to the furthest reaches of the galaxy, with orders to conquer an insignificant backwater prehistoric mudball known as the planet Earth. Once here, GWAR, the original Ancient Aliens, shaped the face of the globe, wiping out the dinosaurs, and mating with apes to create the human race. Having accidentally given rise to all human history, the Master of All Reality froze them in Antarctic ice where they could do no more harm. It was there they were discovered by a shady entrepreneur known as Sleazy P Martini, who sat the band down in front of professional wrestling, late-night horror movies, heavy metal music, and a steady diet of crack cocaine until GWAR became the cultural force they are today!
