Sky Soleil, voice of Sunny, showcases chaotic co-op, split-screen multiplayer and playable Buddy the dog, while a new community challenge lets players unlock free skins together

Sydney, Australia, August 27, 2026 – Vertigo Games today unveiled a new gameplay trailer for Arizona Sunshine®, giving players a closer look at the upcoming third-person zombie shooter. Hosted by Sky Soleil, the voice of protagonist Sunny, the trailer showcases the game’s chaotic co-op action, local split-screen multiplayer, and playable Buddy the dog. Alongside the new gameplay, Vertigo Games is also launching a new community challenge, giving players the chance to unlock free in-game rewards together.

Watch the Gameplay Trailer here:

Meet Sunny. Meet Buddy. Meet the apocalypse.
In the new gameplay trailer, Sky Soleil introduces Sunny, the wisecracking survivor at the heart of Arizona Sunshine®. After spending far too much time alone in the Arizona desert, Sunny sets out across the zombie-infested wasteland with his weapons, survival instincts, and loyal canine companion Buddy by his side.

The trailer showcases the game’s new third-person perspective, as Sunny takes on hordes of “Freds,” his name for the undead roaming the Arizona wasteland, with explosive gunplay, brutal melee combat, and the series’ signature dark humour.

Bring a friend. Bring Buddy.
Survival is better with company. Arizona Sunshine® features chaotic two-player multiplayer, including online co-op and local split-screen.

In multiplayer, players can also take control of Buddy, Sunny’s loyal four-legged companion, bringing a whole new perspective to the apocalypse as they help Sunny, sniff out secrets, and tear into Freds along the way.

Because every apocalypse needs a good boy.

Join the Arizona Sunshine® Community Challenge
Alongside the new gameplay reveal, Vertigo Games is launching a community challenge where players can wishlist the game together to unlock four free skins.

The challenge features four milestones, each unlocking a new skin for the entire community. The first reward is a Tactical K-9 Unit outfit for Sunny, while the remaining three skins will be revealed as the community reaches each milestone.

So sharpen your machete, reload your shotgun, and bring your friends… the Freds are waiting!

Remember, escape, repeat as delusions of grandeur meet narrative-driven horror

LOS ANGELES — Aug. 26, 2026 — Today’s Future Games Show Live lifts the would-be bloodstained wedding veil to reveal Sweetheart, the first-person narrative-driven horror breakup simulator by Genie Boy Games. Sweetheart severs heartstrings on Windows PC, Mac, and Linux via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch next year.

It’s not every day a 15-year toxic relationship turns into a monstrous nightmare, but today’s not every day. Skylar Maxine, after all, is not your typical woman: she’s an A-List pop star living in a sprawling L.A. mansion. Skylar’s a veritable icon, equal parts her childhood heroes, Hannah Montana and Marlyn Monroe, but once upon a time, she was simply Skylar, who started dating her childhood crush, Gabe, when they were 12. Now…things are different. 

Unable to bear the nightmare their childhood dreams are turning into, Gabe must split with Skylar, a change she takes…poorly. Fearing the failure of fulfilling their lifelong goals together, Skylar’s mental stability dissolves, and untold horrors manifest in reality as an existential crisis.

Navigate Gabe and Skylar’s dream home in the Hollywood Hills as the 15-year couple breaks apart at the seams. Endure Skylar’s psychological breaks, warping their home and even Skylar herself in a tinsel-toned nightmare echoing shades of Mouthwashing meets La La Land and Midsommar. Sneak and hide through shifting labyrinthian rooms, ruined memories, and liminal spaces in hopes of surviving the emotional onslaught. As Skylar’s new form hunts Gabe, dark truths emerge, shedding a dangerous light on both their realities — or whatever remains of them.

“It’s hard not to want to be like the perfect couples we see on TV,” said Ben Escobar, founder of Genie Boy Games. “Sweetheart shapeshifts these thoughts into a surreal tragedy that examines the early 2000s era as major networks turned children into stars, and the intense fallout of humanity it may have left in its wake. Between the horror and comedic elements lies an authentic, meaningful tale revolving around the stigma of mental illness, the gray areas of dependent identities, and ultimately overcoming abuse in a relationship.”

Check out the debut Sweetheart trailer revealed today at Future Games Show Live here! Contain love’s broken dreams when Sweetheart launches on Steam for Windows PC, Mac, and Linux, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch next year.

Explore the depths of Playtime Co. as the Smiling Critters while working to build a mysterious location for an even more mysterious voice 

Los Angeles, August 26, 2026 – Today, Mob Entertainment, the studio behind the hit horror franchise Poppy Playtime, revealed Escape From Playtime, a new 1-4 player online co-op game that sends players back into the infamous Playtime Co. factory from the perspective of the cute-yet-disturbing Smiling Critters. Tasked with scavenging materials for a mysterious building project that promises escape from the factory, players will need to work together and follow instructions from an ominous voice lurking somewhere in the shadows, all while evading the factory’s most dangerous denizens. 

“We’ve always loved the idea that Playtime Co. is this huge, awful place with more hiding inside of it than anyone has seen,” said Brandon James, Game Director, Mob Entertainment. “Paired with our passion for exploring and building multiplayer experiences in this world, where Escape From Playtime started, and working together with our community, we’re creating a game that will continue to deliver excitement and surprises. And of course a good jump scare or two.”

Escape From Playtime is a co-op survival horror game set deep inside the abandoned Playtime Co. factory. Players take on the roles of the Smiling Critters, the dead-eyed toy line with gaping smiles first introduced in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 3, and explore classrooms, warehouses, testing labs, and the dark corridors connecting them all.

Played solo or with up to three other players, each run sends teams into a dynamically changing section of the facility to find and transport resources for a mysterious Voice. The materials are needed to help build a promised home for toys who prove their loyalty and usefulness. Simple enough, except the factory is filled with rejected Playtime Co. creations stalking the halls. Players will need to search quickly, choose when to split up or stick together, and know when it is time to retreat.

Along the way, players can solve puzzles, uncover clues, scavenge tools, use hiding spots and alternate routes, and turn the factory layout to their advantage. Proximity voice chat adds another risk: communication is essential, but an irresponsible whisper can bring the mission to a brutal end.

As runs are completed, Escape From Playtime reveals a deeper connection to the larger Poppy Playtime story. The Voice promises freedom and a home, but its motives remain unclear. Every resource gathered feeds into something bigger. You are helping build something, but what, and why?

Key Features:

• Critter Co-Op: Play solo or team up with up to 3 friends in a fight for survival inside Playtime Co. More Critters means more ground covered and more chances for something to go horribly wrong, all enabled with proximity voice chat. 
• The Voice: A mysterious Voice sends players into the facility to collect scattered parts and resources. Gather what you need, bring it back safely, and try not to ask too loudly who or what you are really working for.
• Scavenge to Survive: Use whatever the factory gives you to stay alive. Search for tools, uncover clues, find hiding spots, create distractions, and use alternate routes to outmaneuver the rejected Playtime Co. creations stalking the halls.
• Mini Mode: Crawl, jump, and climb through every nook and cranny of the Playtime Co. factory as a Smiling Critter and experience some of the most iconic Poppy Playtime locations through a new (smaller) set of eyes.
• Familiar and New: It’s Playtime Co. as you know it, with a twist. The mysterious Voice seems to be altering the factory’s layout, creating procedurally generated environments that change with each run.

EARLY ACCESS

Escape From Playtime is being built with Early Access in mind, giving players a strong core loop at launch while leaving room for the community to help shape future growth. The initial release is planned to include the full eight-character Smiling Critter roster, one starter zone, and a core enemy lineup. Future updates are expected to expand the game with new zones, Critters, features, and refinements informed by player feedback.

– Release date on PC and consoles announced for October 14 – Switch 2 version also revealed, confirmed for later this year –

BRISTOL, England (August 26, 2026) – Auroch Digital and Big Fan Games released a brand new trailer for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 today showcasing the first footage of the game’s main antagonist, Vashtorr, daemonic demigod of inventors, engineers, scientists and artisans, and revealed the highly anticipated release date on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S for October 14. Auroch Digital and Big Fan have also announced Warhammer 40:000 Boltgun 2 will launch on Nintendo Switch 2, shortly after its October 14 debut on other platforms. 

Today’s release date trailer absolutely shreds with a first-listen teaser of the original musical track created for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 by guest composer Mick Gordon (DOOM (2016), DOOM Eternal, Wolfenstein: The New Order). Get your first look at the unrestrained invention and abominable artifice that is Vashtorr the Arkifane: 

Traveling to an isolated star system to check on reports of increased Chaos activity, playable characters Ultramarine Malum Caedo and Sister of Battle Nyra Veyrath soon find themselves facing the wrath of Vashtorr the Arkifane. A demigod of immense power, Vashtorr awakens a vast daemonic machine at the centre of the planet, causing a catastrophic explosion and destroying much of the Imperial fleet. Now Malum and Nyra must race from world to world to cleanse the corruption powering Vashtorr’s daemonic machinations – and to stand a chance of banishing the demigod back to the Warp.

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 continues where the original Boltgun left off, bringing unrepentant strafing action and an increased variety of killer weapon selection to fans. Battle fan-favorite foes like the sassy plague-spreading Nurglings and Chaos Cultists, as well as all-new enemies.

Upcoming FPS Souls-like from Eschatology Entertainment, with art direction by Half-Life 2 and Dishonored Art Director Viktor Antonov, launches on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S this year.

Cyprus – August 26, 2026 – Publisher 4Divinity and developer Eschatology Entertainment have today revealed a new trailer for Guns of Eschaton at gamescom, offering a fresh look at the hardcore FPS Souls-like, while confirming the game will launch for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2026. Shaped by the artistic vision of Half-Life 2 and Dishonored Art Director Viktor Antonov, Guns of Eschaton is being created by an international team of veteran developers as a distinctive new take on the FPS and Souls-like genres. 

Built as a unique new experience rather than simply a combination of familiar mechanics, Guns of Eschaton brings together the precision and immediacy of first-person shooters with the deliberate combat, exploration, progression, and buildcrafting of Souls-like games — all within an original apocalyptic Western universe.

Witness this new world before it ends in the new trailer below:

In Guns of Eschaton, every bullet counts — including the ones you don’t fire. Players must study whatever is trying to kill them, while never knowing quite enough to make the journey feel safe. Old-fashioned guns may replace swords, and a demonic train may replace a dragon, but the philosophy remains: understanding your opponent is just as important as mastering your own arsenal.

A deep progression and buildcrafting system gives players the freedom to develop their own approach to the apocalypse. Firearms, different ammunition types, occult abilities, talismans, armor, consumables, and active and passive skills can be combined into highly individual builds, creating different solutions to the challenges of the world. There is no single way to become a legendary gunslinger.

The apocalypse doesn’t have to be faced alone. Guns of Eschaton was designed as a solo-first experience, with co-op offering a different way to experience the journey and adding another layer of replayability. Playing together brings a new rhythm to the game, introducing different strategies and tactics for shared survival. The challenge and the story remain, but sharing the journey changes the experience.

A World Built to Be Discovered

The distinctive visual identity of Guns of Eschaton was shaped by acclaimed worldbuilder and Art Director Viktor Antonov, whose work helped define the worlds of Half-Life 2 and Dishonored, among other celebrated titles. Working alongside Eschatology Entertainment’s international team of experienced developers and artists, Antonov established a visual language in which architecture, environments, characters, narrative, and game design are closely connected.

The result is a handcrafted world that takes the familiar imagery of the 19th-century American frontier and transforms it through occult horror, mythology, religion, history, and the supernatural. It is a Wild West players may recognize from films, books, and popular culture — but one now burning in the flames of the apocalypse.

Rather than simply providing a backdrop for combat, the world itself is part of the experience. Exploration, environmental storytelling, encounters, and player decisions gradually reveal what happened to this frontier — and what role the player has in its fate.

No Rest. No Peace. Guns of Eschaton launches for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2026.

Key Features

• Every bullet counts: Face off in deliberate, high-stakes gunfights where preparation matters as much as aim. Study enemies through the Codex to uncover weaknesses, master precise timings and calculated parries, and wield mystic abilities granted by the occult.
• Build your legendary gunslinger: Create a playstyle of your own through deep character progression and flexible buildcrafting. Experiment with a vast arsenal of firearms, ammunition types, occult powers, talismans, armor, and consumables. Combine active and passive abilities, discover powerful synergies, and learn deadly tricks from legendary gunslingers.
• FPS gunplay meets Souls-like combat: Familiar principles from two established genres are rebuilt around one combat philosophy. Precision shooting, weapon mastery, enemy knowledge, resource management, timing, and buildcrafting come together to create an FPS where simply pulling the trigger is rarely the whole answer.
• Explore an occult apocalyptic West: Journey from East to West through an original world shaped by Viktor Antonov’s distinctive art direction. 19th-century frontier Americana collides with occult horror, mythology, religion, and the supernatural as the Old West burns in the apocalypse.
• Find your own way through the end times: Weapons, abilities, equipment, builds, exploration, and player choices allow different players to approach the world and its challenges in very different ways.
• Ride alone or together: Experience the complete journey solo or alongside an ally in co-op, with full progression allowing players to tackle the challenges of the dying world. Alone, it is a personal test of mastery. Together, it becomes a different experience built around coordination and shared survival.
