Today, at Summer Game Fest 2026, 2K and Hangar 13 announced the Man of Honor expansion* for Mafia: The Old Country, coming August 14, 2026 to PlayStation®5 (PS5®), Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. Available to wishlist now, the Man of Honor expansion features two new chapters in Enzo’s story as he crosses paths with Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family and main antagonist of Mafia: Definitive Edition, as well as additional content for Free Ride mode. Check out the teaser trailer below. 

Experience Two New Chapters in Enzo’s Story

Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation. Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his.

At Salieri’s side, Enzo is drawn deeper into the volatile underworld of the Valle Dorata, where loyalty is tested, debts are settled, and every move carries weight.

Enzo’s story continues across two new chapters, featuring fresh environments, weapons, vehicles, and Charms. These chapters explore a previously unseen period during Enzo’s height as a soldato, and Man of Honor owners will have the option to jump directly to the new narrative content if they have played far enough in the storyline, or experience it as a seamless part of the main campaign.

Additional Free Ride Content

In the additional content for Free Ride mode**, players will team up with Salieri to earn big by taking on a new set of extreme challenges, and discover new collectibles and never-before-seen locations. 

Salieri acts as the player’s point of contact for these new Free Ride activities, which will test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi.

Learn more about the runs-based story campaign and discover new location Derven Acos in the new trailer

Release Date: October 6^th, 2026 | Players: 1-12 | Rating: Pending

Guildford, UK – June 5th, 2026:  Star Wars: Galactic Racer™, the upcoming Star Wars™ racing adventure made in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, has shared a deeper look at what’s to come in the runs-based, high-stakes reinvention of racing. At Summer Game Fest 2026, fans caught a peek at the bitter rivalry between Galactic League champion Kestar Bool and mysterious challenger Shade, discovered new location Derven Acos, and had a first look at podracing action beyond the Mos Espa Circuit.

Star Wars: Galactic Racer invites elite pilots to join the Galactic League, an underground racing league born in the lawless Outer Rim, established by racing enthusiast Darius Pax. But while Pax may have founded the League, underhanded and well-connected racer Kestar Bool has become its champion, and will stop at nothing to maintain his grip on the title. With nowhere else to turn, Pax recruits Shade, a lone racer with a personal grudge against the Bool family, to enter the Galactic League and bring an end to Kestar’s reign before his corruption grows too deep to remove.

To prove their worth in the Galactic League, pilots will engage in a series of challenges designed to test their skills. The runs-based campaign sees players carving their own path through the League, choosing between different events as they progress with unique unlocks and new challenges at every turn. There’s no turning back once an event is chosen, and if a pilot crashes too many times, they wreck out of the tour and will need to regroup, rebuild and begin again. Only certain perks and unlocks earned in previous attempts are carried over to the next run. Racers will start each tour from scratch with new decisions and choices to make for another chance to take down league champion Kestar Bool.

Kestar and Shade may be the main characters in the Star Wars: Galactic Racer campaign, but there are many other pilots vying for the top spot. In the trailer, fans can catch a glimpse of Shade exploring the paddock, where fellow racers congregate to share stories, throw down challenges, and even provide support. Each planet’s paddock features the mechanic, Hibi, and her unique workshop. Here, Shade can fit new parts either earned or bought from Hibi herself, offering stat boosts and abilities to support each player’s racing style as they prepare for races across the circuit.

The newly revealed location of Derven Acos is the ultimate test in the Galactic League – a custom-built arena designed specifically for the racing league. Derven Acos features every planetary condition that racers will have encountered throughout the tour, all combined into a mighty gauntlet that will push a pilot’s skills to the limit. Racers will need nerves of steel and a well-tuned build for the showpiece events of the Galactic League.

Fans also get their first look at the iconic podracers being piloted outside of the Mos Espa Circuit, bringing these powerful machines to planets with new challenges to overcome. In addition to discovering the part podracing plays in the singleplayer story campaign, eager racers can choose to jump straight into podracing as soon as they start playing Star Wars: Galactic Racer through the Arcade mode and will get to experience unique podracer focused online multiplayer events for the very first time.

Star Wars: Galactic Racer launches for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on October 6th, 2026. It will be available in Standard and Deluxe editions, both physically and digitally, with a physical-only Collector’s Edition available for the biggest race fans while stocks last. Pre-orders for all editions of the game are available now. Visit starwarsgalacticracer.com for more details.

Panache Digital Games unveils 1666: Amsterdam A dark cycle of power, debt, and reckoning begins

Montréal, June 5, 2026 – Panache Digital Games, the studio behind Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey, today unveiled 1666: Amsterdam, a dark third-person story-led action-adventure game from creative director Patrice Désilets, with a world premiere trailer showcased during Summer Game Fest.

A free playable prologue is available now on Steam and Epic Games Store. This standalone narrative teaser, lasting approximately 30 minutes, introduces the world, characters, and core mystery of 1666: Amsterdam. 

The full game is set to launch in Early Access on PC in 2026, with console versions planned for a later date. Store pages for both the prologue and the full game are now live.

Play the Prologue Now on Steam and Epic Games Store

What will unfold in Amsterdam did not begin there.
It was set in motion long before the first canal was dug, before the first stone was named.
In the year 1333, the contracts were sealed.
And ever since, the city has lain under their influence.
The Collector now stands invested.
As the cycle reaches its end, another begins.  

About the Game

Amsterdam, 1666.

A city built on wealth, power, and sheer will, yet shaped by forces it did not forge. Entities known as the Originals have lived among its people for centuries, granted time, granted power, and the freedom to abuse both. That power is now owed.

Noa Brooklyn was born the Collector, raised by the Zaindaris for a purpose she did not choose. Aaron, drawn from 1999, now sees the world through the eyes of a cat.

This is where the cycle begins.

Before the first Esbat. Before the Collector realizes what awaits her. The Prologue of 1666: Amsterdam offers a first glimpse into a world shaped by centuries of hidden influence. Step into Noa’s Commencement as she takes on the mantle of the Collector, and begins to understand the role she was born to fulfill.

A choice must be made. A companion will walk beside her. This is only the beginning.

Prologue Key Features

• Three timelines, one mysteryGlimpse a story unfolding across 1666, 1999, and the present day, each era revealing fragments of a larger truth.
• Choose your companionA decision must be made early. Choose the one who will walk beside you, bound to your path.
• Step into Noa’s CommencementTake on the mantle of the Collector and discover the role you were meant to fulfill.
• The world behind the worldUncover the foundations of a universe shaped by centuries of unseen influence, where nothing is quite what it seems.

A Word from Patrice Désilets

“It’s been a long time coming, and I couldn’t be prouder of our team of nearly 70 talented developers in Montreal. For the past six years, we’ve focused on one thing above all else: the game itself. No fake footage, no vertical slices, just a playable experience evolving build after build, day after day.

Today, we’re finally ready to invite players into that process. The free prologue available now on Steam and Epic Games Store is only a small taste of what’s to come, an amuse-bouche before a nine-course dinner, an introduction to the world, its characters, and its different time periods. We hope players will enjoy discovering it as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.
Merci and Panache Coliss!”

Grab your friends and jump into the server slam now to experience mech-building, high-stakes desert scavenging, and intense FPS action

LOS ANGELES – June 5, 2026 – Publisher tinyBuild and indie developers Hologryph and TowerHaus welcome you to survive a desert world of action-packed, mech-fueled, multiplayer mayhem in SAND: Raiders of Sophie, coming to Steam on June 10! Customize massive, modular mechs, scavenge the vast desert, and face off against fearsome enemies and other ruthless players. Jump into SAND‘s open server slam playtest now through this weekend on Steam to experience the action for yourself early!

SAND is set in an alternate-history, dieselpunk world on the ruined planet Sophie, where an ecological disaster has evaporated the oceans. All that’s left are humans and their Trampler mechs, titanic mechanical moving beasts that can traverse Sophie’s sprawling wasteland. Working alone or in teams, humanity now scours Sophie’s far-reaching deserts, scavenging for hidden riches and fighting to keep them. For players seeking the thrill of extraction shooters without the brutal learning curve, or survival game fans tired of logging in to find their base raided, SAND offers a fresh alternative.

In SAND’s new server slam playtest, going on now, players will discover deadly new PvE Trampler mechs to face off against, as well as expanded weapons, Trampler customization options, and points of interest. There’s also the new Storm Dive Mode, featuring more risk and even greater rewards alongside a violent storm which progressively shrinks the safe zones on the map, pushing players to a final confrontation against each other with a massive Dreadnought shipwreck to loot as your prize!

Key Features

• FORGE YOUR FORTRESS, DOMINATE THE DESERT: Design your Tramplers from scratch in the Trampler Editor before deploying into the world. Build your very own modular impenetrable fortress that can weather the deadliest of assaults. The only limits are your creativity and will to succeed!
• SQUAD UP OR GO SOLO: Get your crew together, or go solo as you embark on expeditions. Deploy into the world, chart your course, and scavenge cities, ruins, shipwrecks and other remnants of a fallen world for loot.
• MULTIPLAYER DIESELPUNK ACTION: Every city looted, shipwreck scoured or ill-timed encounter with fellow scavengers endured might just be your last, so keep your wits about you. Survive encounters with mysterious supernatural forces, fight or talk your way out of confrontations with other players, successfully make it to your extraction point, and escape to the safety of the orbital station with your loot, life and Trampler intact.
• BRAVE THE DUNES: Test your builds and scavenge lower-tier items at your own pace in Voyage Mode, or raise the stakes with a shrinking map and escalating dangers in Storm Dive Mode for higher-tier loot and greater rewards.
• PERSISTENT PROGRESS: Unlike traditional survival games, SAND eliminates the dreaded offline raid; your Trampler extracts with you at the end of each session. Build, fight, extract, repeat – without losing everything while you sleep.

SAND: Raiders of Sophie will launch on June 10 on Steam. Players can venture into the open playtest on Steam now. To learn more about SAND, visit the game’s website.

Dark Awakening update brings new modes, car parts and weapons

Gaijin Entertainment announces the release of “Dark Awakening”, a new major content update for the post-apocalyptic online action game Crossout. The update introduces Eclipse, a new high-tech faction made up of former humans from elite military and special forces units who have transformed themselves into robotic war machines. They have retained their minds and free will, but now serve as the ultimate defense system of the Oracle, an artificial intelligence antagonist whose safety they protect by destroying any possible threat.

Eclipse specializes in stealth attacks, ambushes and weakening enemies before the decisive strike. Their signature mechanic, Corrosion allows players to create weak spots on enemy vehicles or even deliberately redistribute damage across their own armor to protect critical components. The new season brings a range of faction-themed parts built around this idea, including the Wayfarer frontal wheel with a sharp side dash, the retractable Extremum shotgun, the dual-mode Vendetta turret cannon, the invisibility-focused Exodus shuriken launcher, the Ark cabin with a combat drone, and the Shroud module, which can temporarily weaken the player’s own connected parts.

The update also adds several limited-time brawls. Test Prototypes lets players try preset vehicles equipped with new season parts, while Squad Battle throws three teams of four into a Mexican standoff that becomes deadlier as a sandstorm reduces the playable area. Contract challenges four players to hunt assigned targets while hiding among their own doppelgangers, and Short Circuit pits attackers against defenders fighting over three generators.

The update also includes sound improvements, a new main theme for the season, improvements to lighting and shadows, and balance changes largely inspired by player feedback.

Navigate spine-chilling environments – or guide your partner from the control van – in this communications-based co-op creepfest!

Paris, France – June 5th, 2026 – Game Atelier, the acclaimed studio behind Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom and Otherskin, are proud to unleash their asymmetrical horror game Follow Us today on Steam Early Access. In this hilarious and horrifying relationship stress test, one player explores a spooky environment, while another guides them remotely from the van, trying to keep their partner alive.

Follow Us is available at $10 / €10 / £9, with a 15% launch discount available for the first 7 days, bringing the price down to $8.50 / €8.50 / £7.65. The game also supports a Friend’s Pass, allowing a second player to join at no additional cost.

Each round begins with players choosing between two roles: 

• The Explorer (EXY): Bravely navigate a deadly, haunted environment
• The Operator (OPY): Hang back safe in the van, hacking the playspace to protect their partner

Built on communication rather than complex mechanics, Follow Us creates tension by combining two different things: isolation and connection. Expect panic, shouting, and miscommunication. One wrong call can get your partner killed, and yes, it will probably be your fault. Each stage offers its own unique mechanics, ensuring that players are tasked with different types of communication-based challenges. 

Available levels

1. Ökaou (from the demo): A maze-like Ikea store. OPY guides EXY through the layout and can trigger light cameras to freeze the mannequins that come to life.
2. A Night with DJ Susan (new): A “spot the difference” puzzle level: OPY and EXY don’t see quite the same thing, and players must communicate to identify the anomalies.
3. Employee of the Month (new): An invincible enemy stalks EXY throughout the entire level. OPY controls doors and tracks the creature’s position through an electrical system to keep their partner alive.

Every mission plays with fear in a different way… but they all end the same way: shared panic, bad decisions, and laughter. The Explorer experiences isolation and danger in the field, while the operator suffers through helplessness and constant pressure. Every swap creates a fresh emotional scenario, making each playthrough completely different with unexpected communication conflicts guaranteed to create creepy co-op chaos! Using lo-fi chunky PSone-inspired graphics, everything in Follow Us aims for a clean, immediately legible aesthetic so anyone can hop right into the action and understand its horrific hijinks!

“You know when you’re watching a horror movie and you’re yelling ‘don’t go in there!’ to the characters on screen? Well imagine if that was an actual person you could communicate with in real time. That’s Follow Us,”said Hugo at Game Atelier.“One part horror game, one part heist movie, and all communications comedy, Follow Us effortlessly flows between high tension terror and hilarious hijinks. This Early Access launch will let players enjoy its first three stages and the game will constantly grow and evolve based on player feedback.”

The game is available in seven languages, with full text and menu localisation in French, German, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, and Turkish.

Founded in 2010, Game Atelier is an independent studio with AAA-indie expertise, dedicated to crafting player-focused action-adventure games that blend creativity with technical craftsmanship.

Cardiff, UK (05/05/26) – Curveball Games and the Oxobox Games team are proud to be included in this year’s Latin American Games Showcase. To celebrate, the team put together a brand new trailer announcing limited time additions coming to the Steam Demo, as well as showcase some of the multiplayer content available when the game launches.

With custom game board designs and multiple modes to choose from, Sente’s multiplayer will offer countless hours of customisable entertainment when the title launches in Q3 2026.

DEMO RELEASE

Sente’s Demo already includes a full tutorial system to get you up to speed on the intricate circuit building in the form of the opening portion of Sente’s campaign. Play as Jade as she enters the Robot Bar, determined to prove that humans are just as smart as the robots currently gatekeeping the entertainment sensation of Sente.

The Single Player includes: 

• Tutorials missions to get players familiar with the flow of gameplay.
• Player vs AI matches with one & two simultaneous opponents.
• Introduction to the Story mode and characters.
• The single-player campaign portion of the demo has been updated with complete professional voice-overs, bringing the game’s characters and story to life.
• The demo will be split into three opponents, each designed to teach the player something new about Sente 
• The TV Teacher (TVT) – The objective here is to destroy the enemy core with a basic board layout of pieces. Basic energy flow, laser positioning, and how actions resolve will show beginner chain reaction moves such as pushes and explosion.
• The Claw – Two difficulty modes; Easy is more forgiving, teaches consequences, and allows for recovery. Normal can predict the player’s behaviour better and punish clumsy mistakes forcing the anticipation of moves.
• The Dark Robot – A more in-depth look in the strategic language of Sente rather than a simple one-on-one. There are 23 hand-crafted puzzles to solve such as “Win in 1 turn”, “Win in X amount of moves” etc. Each puzzle has a fixed board state and focuses on the clarity of movements, rather than difficulty. Hints will be available, however, they will not solve the puzzle for you!

The estimated playtime for the single player portion of the demo is between 1-2 hours depending on player skill (and curiosity). However, Player vs AI matches can be completed any number of times.

Multiplayer portion:

• All new Multiplayer tab available on the home page.
• Absolute free-for-all! No team battles, just you, your wits, and up to 5 opponents.
• Randomised Matchmaking – Sente’s servers will connect you with between 1 and 5 other players meaning no two matches will feel the same.
• No private matches (this time) – The team are still hard at work on the invite and system and private modes.

We’re encouraging all players to join the Sente Discord to share their experiences & feedback. Find Sente on Steam.

Check out the limited multiplayer demo running from June 4th to June 22nd. If you’d like to know more about what other multiplayer modes are planned for Sente, reach out either to a member of the development team on Discord or respond to the Curveball Games PR.

ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE revealed today its systems walkthrough trailer, offering a deep-dive into the high-stakes aerial combat, robust aircraft customisation, and colossal superweapon battles awaiting players in this new entry in the legendary series of ACE COMBAT.

The trailer breaks down the core systems that players will want to learn and master as they take on the role of an ace pilot, and showcases massive enemy superweapons that dominate the battlefield with overwhelming offensive and defensive capabilities. ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE introduces new gameplay mechanics, such as chain reactions where the wreckage of downed enemy weaponry collides with other weapons as it falls.
