Rock Paper ShotgunLate last year, the modders behind an ambitious Baldur's Gate 3 custom campaign mod called Path to Menzoberranzan pencilled in plans to release a Nautiold-sized demo level during the first half of 2026. That timeline was settled on following a re-think of the project's scope last summer, and with this summer now in full swing, the group have put out a teaser of the level alongside announcing its environments are nearly finished.

Rock Paper ShotgunIf you've put in an order for a Steam Controller and are still awaiting its arrival, a new system Valve have rolled out can offer you an estimate of when you should hear from them about your order. While you'll only be given one of three very rough windows, it's at least something to go on if you're wondering where you're at in the queue. Read more
GameSpotLast month, Valve launched its Steam Controller and demand has far outweighed the supply. So much so that as of today, new orders for Steam Controller won't be fulfilled by Valve until 2027 at the earliest. Valve shared the news on its site, where it noted that it has "no plans to stop making Steam Controller." But the company also stated that the response to the controller has "exceeded our expectations." In the interest of clarity, Valve will now provide customers with three estimated delivery

Rock Paper ShotgunThe Epic Games Store is not very good. This is not a controversial thing to say, I'm fairly certain, as the lack of features available within it feels a bit odd also eight years into the thing existing. Sure, there's some free games every now and then (like Citizen Sleeper, right now), but there's a lot of basic things missing. But it seems much of that, including simple things like patch notes, will be coming within the next 12 months. Read more
Rock Paper ShotgunIn front of me is a single die. It costs me a bit of money to roll it, but I get a four, so I get four dollars, so I'm making a profit all the same. It costs me a bit more to roll this time. I do it anyway, and I get a bit more money, and more importantly experience points. After a while, I'm able to add in another die. You know what that means: more money. And I need the money, because I owe the devil a good few hundo. This is Meaningless Random Numbers, an incremental horror game where god is
Rock Paper ShotgunThat there System Shock remake sure seems to have had one of the weirdest developments on any game around. There's the fact it took so long (almost eight whole years) having been delayed numerous times, but also the fact that at one point the FBI was called in on developer Nightdive. And now, it turns out that a group of devs within the studio banded together to form a sort of secret group to actually get it made. Read more
GameSpotThe 2026's Men's World Cup is underway, and the popular soccer game Rematch got an update recently inspired by the global event. Now, the game has received another update that adds a skin that lets you play as an almost-naked person. The Naturist is the name of the new skin, and it's in the game's store now. As you can see, it doesn't remove your clothes entirely but pretty much. It basically lets you cosplay as the world's most famous nevernude, Tobias Funke. This is clearly inspired by streake
Rock Paper ShotgunFollowing the customary beta tests, Valve have released a new SteamOS update that adds "initial" support for the forthcoming Steam Machine, that unconscionable hybrid of desktop computer and videogame console, feared by man and god alike. It's one, small step along the road to the new hardware's (delayed) release this summer, at which point we will probably discover that it costs eleventy thousand pounds per unit. Read more
Rock Paper ShotgunHurrah! Today is a very fine Thursday, as one of the most tightly written sci-fi RPGs around is available to pick up for free for around a week. That'll be Citizen Sleeper, by the way, a dice-driven RPG that I'm sure all of you must already know and love, but for the selection of you that don't technically exist, I'm sure you'll be happy to be able to pick it up for the cost of a couple of clicks.

GameSpotThe Grand Theft Auto series began in 1997, and every game in the series lets you commit the titular crime--sometimes stealing a parked vehicle, but often carjacking a driver in the middle of the street. But with the recent reveal of the Grand Theft Auto VI cover art, we realized something pretty remarkable: Only one game in the series actually features a grand theft auto on the cover. As you can see, Grand Theft Auto 2 appears to show a carjacking in progress, with someone rushing into a taxi wh
Rock Paper ShotgunIf you heard the sound of a wet fart reverberating throughout the world yesterday, it'll likely be thanks to the most recent State of Unreal, where Epic offered some more concrete details regarding its plans for Unreal Engine 6. Namely, that it wants to infuse it with generative AI, and there's also some bollocks about using your Fortnite skins in other games and vice versa. But speaking of Fortnite, the same showcase announced a Vampire Survivors collab was on the cards, only for developer ponc
Rock Paper ShotgunAs I write these words, Julian has just published a feature about Signet City, the new "fungalpunk" RPG from Citizen Sleeper and In Other Waters developer Gareth Damian Martin, in which you are a soulful parasite moving between the minds and bodies of an entire urban population. Doubtless, it is a splendid account of what is very likely a masterpiece of post-anthropocentric poetics, assuming I'm clocking Gareth's current theoretical preoccupations correctly. Unfortunately, I don't have time to r
EurogamerEpic Games boss Tim Sweeney took to the State of Unreal stage yesterday to deliver a rallying cry of sorts to the games industry, which he described as being "in a time of both crisis and also opportunity". And guess where the opportunity is? But we'll come back to that. Read more
GameSpotMidnight Murder Club, the positively received horror party game from the developers of Knockout City, is getting one more update before the studio moves on. However, Velan Studios confirmed the game is not shutting down. Update 2.0.008, which is out now and addresses an issue on Steam with controller-rumble issues, is the "last planned update for the game," Velan Studios announced. Public and private matches will remain available. Midnight Murder Club is not getting any more updates. Velan Studi
Rock Paper ShotgunThe broil of ideas that make up Signet City have been growing in Gareth Damian Martin's head for years and they're about fit to burst. The creator of In Other Waters and Citizen Sleeper describes their new game as a first-person fungalpunk RPG, a game that draws inspiration from the history and culture of the northern England, the whalepunk tech of Dishonored's world, and lifts systems from cyberpunk tabletop game The Veil. But it's as much a manifestation of projects they're reacting against, a
GameSpotThe Epic Games Store continues to give away a free game each week, and this week's offering is another nice find at a price that can't be beat. Every Thursday at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET, Epic offers at least one free PC game (and sometimes even as many as two or three). All you need to do to claim the free games is create a free Epic account and enable two-factor authentication. You have a week to add the freebies to your library before the new one(s) take their place. At this point, Epic has given a
