Mad About Pandas’ latest adventure lets you “copy and paste” the physical properties of the world around you. Releasing this May on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. Have you ever looked at a solid brick wall and wished it had the physical properties of thin air? Or perhaps looked at a coffee table and wished it possessed the bouncy elasticity of a trampoline? During the Future Games Show Spring Showcase, publisher Focus Entertainment and Berlin-based developer Mad About Pandas revealed a game built entirely around that mind-bending premise. Titled Yerba Buena, this surreal new puzzle-platforming adventure is officially launching…

Tito’s fast-paced, blood-soaked FPS just dropped a major content patch. It’s time to crash a prison rave, ride ziplines, and finally kick your enemies into spiked barrels. If you haven’t played PIGFACE yet, the premise is as beautifully simple as it is brutal. You are a terrible person who has done awful things, and your past has finally caught up to you. You wake up in an abandoned warehouse covered in your own blood with a bomb drilled into your head. The phone rings. You have a job to do. Developed by solo-dev Tito (@titolovesyou), PIGFACE is a kinetic, lightning-fast,…

Loric Games sat down with us at the Snail Games USA booth to discuss the incredible evolution of their co-op airship survival RPG, the addition of cave exploration, and the future of PvP. It is no secret that launching a game into Early Access is a gamble. Sometimes a game drops with a rock-solid foundation, ready to be expanded upon. Other times, the launch is a bit turbulence-heavy, requiring developers to grab a wrench and start frantically patching the engine mid-flight. When Echoes of Elysium—a co-op airship survival RPG developed by Loric Games—launched into Steam Early Access back in January…

The next chapter in The Dark Pictures Anthology brings back Movie Night Mode, introduces a visual branching story tree, and forces friends to decide who lives and who dies aboard the Cassiopeia. Supermassive Games has built an empire on making players yell at their friends on the couch. Whether you accidentally got a camp counselor killed in The Quarry or made a disastrous narrative choice in Until Dawn, the studio knows exactly how to weaponize social tension. During today’s Future Games Show presentation, Supermassive officially confirmed that their upcoming sci-fi survival horror adventure, Directive 8020, will continue that proud tradition.…

Fallen Signal Studios aims for the stars with a dual-campaign RPG inspired by Mass Effect and Tron, but our time with the demo was plagued by fatal crashes and sluggish combat. The promise of a sprawling, narrative-driven sci-fi RPG is always an easy way to grab my attention.

Sitting in the tranquil gardens across from the Moscone Center, listening to live jazz music, Theodore painted a picture of a massive new IP. The game,…
