Bad news: Dawn of War 4 is no longer a mere month away. King Art Games' first take on the RTS series was due on September 17, but it looks like the war needs a bit more time to cook. It's been pushed back until December 3. If you shell out for the Commander Edition, you'll be able to sneak in a bit earlier, though, with the three-day early access...
If you scroll down to Popular New Releases on Steam right now, you'll find a quintessentially 2026 list of games. There's Shelves & Sorcery, a new entry in the burgeoning sortslop genre. There's Landscaper Simulator, which is a simulator about landscaping. The War in the North reissue is there, and there are at least two incremental games, which is not a lot compared to normal.Possibly that's because Horse Magnifier: The...
Good news for the Bethesda RPG-starved: The Elder Scrolls 6 is significantly more corporeal now than it was eight years ago, when Todd Howard appeared at E3 (RIP) to announce it with nothing but a logo, a mountain range, and some rousing music. A couple months after Xbox CCO Matt Booty said the game "looks amazing," CEO Asha Sharma went to Bethesda to watch a "live playthrough" that she has...
You know a developer is confident in the game it's making when it's willing to list all of the reasons you might not want to buy it. That's the thrust of the latest dev log for Wardogs, the tactical milsim FPS coming to early access in September.Wardogs has built up a lot of buzz this year, joining Steam's top-wishlisted games and rising ever since. Now it's up for pre-order, and...
16 years ago, we used a trailer for the then-upcoming action RPG Lord of the Rings: War in the North to drop a sick burn on people who maybe take their Tolkien a little too seriously. The game launched a year later, in 2011, to middling reviews and disappointing sales, and there it sat until the delisting process began in late 2018; SteamDB indicates it got the axe on Steam...
If you watched the recent trailer for Saber Interactive's upcoming Rideshare 'Stimulator' (the quotation marks are part of the title) you may have thought it seemed a little bit hinky in spots. Midway through the video, after a quick rundown of some of the game's oddball passengers, the narrator says, "And when I think I've met the randiest of passengers, someone even stranger gets it."First of all, who says "randy"—a...
Earlier this year, Google Chrome annoyed a whole lot of adblock users by killing support for Manifest V2 extensions. It's a Manifest V3 world now, which means the permissions and APIs that thoroughgoing adblockers like uBlock Origin rely on are a thing of the past on Chrome (it's since been replaced by a pared-down version: uBlock Origin Lite). Now, Microsoft Edge is following suit: "Over the next few months, MV2...
Big Walk has sold 1 million copies since launching a week ago, its publisher has announced. That's a huge figure for Australian studio House House, whose previous breakthrough hit Untitled Goose Game took three months to reach that milestone.It's also pretty huge when you consider that Big Walk is currently a monthly "free" PlayStation Plus game, meaning a lot of people on that platform won't need to buy a copy....
Halloween: The Game is the next multiplayer horror game from Illfonic, the studio behind Friday the 13th and Predator Hunting Grounds. Like Friday the 13th it's an asymmetrical affair: one player takes the form of psychotic masked serial killer Michael Myers, while everyone else plays the hapless survivors. It's set to release on September 9, but when it does, players based in Australia won't be able to buy it.Illfonic confirmed...
Among the heavy hitters and viral sensations that make up Steam's most-wishlisted games, Over the Hill exudes "little engine that could" energy. It's a chill, vibey offroad driving game that puts you in an old school 4x4 and sets you off among some low-poly hills to get lost. You've got a grappling hook and the option to drive in a co-op pack with a few friends, which may be the...
