The newly launched Grim Dawn expansion, Fangs of Asterkarn, is off to a strong start, but developer Crate Entertainment is already rolling out changes in response to community feedback. One of the expansion's most controversial additions has drawn particular attention from players, prompting the team to offer a solution that gives fans more control over their experience.
Developer Screen Burn has revealed an unusually hands-on approach to crafting the look and feel of Silent Hill: Townfall's central in-game gadget, the CRTV. To make the device feel genuinely analogue rather than just aesthetically retro, the team physically destroyed old CRT televisions using magnets, capturing the authentic distortions and artifacts that only real hardware damage can produce. The result is a visual style grounded in tactile, real-world experimentation rather than digital simulation of nostalgia.
Project Zomboid has hit a brand-new concurrent player record on Steam following the release of its long-awaited Build 42 update, which arrived after a 19-month wait. The massive update brings reworked towns, a spooky orphanage, and around 400 procedurally generated basements to the beloved zombie survival sim, giving both returning veterans and curious newcomers plenty of reasons to dive back in. The game also received a price increase alongside the update.
Microsoft has officially revealed sweeping price increases for Xbox Series consoles across the UK and Europe, and the numbers are striking harder than many anticipated. The Xbox Series X 1TB model now carries a price tag of roughly $900 (around €200 more than before) in Europe, while UK consumers are facing increases of between 34 and 49 percent depending on the model. The hikes took effect immediately, with no grace period offered to shoppers hoping to snag hardware at older prices.
SEED, a bold new MMO blending the life-simulation charm of The Sims with the colony-management depth of RimWorld, has officially entered Early Access. The game pitches itself as a persistent, player-driven experience that runs 24/7, meaning the world continues to evolve whether you are logged in or not. Rather than focusing on traditional combat loops or competitive conquest, SEED challenges its community to collaborate on a grander scale, working together to build real, functional societies from the ground up.
