Jump King – это хардкорный платформер, требующий от игрока предельной точности и стратегического мышления. Цель игры – добраться до вершины мира, где ждет легендарная Горячая Девчонка. Управление осуществляется с помощью единственной кнопки прыжка, но сложность заключается в правильном расчете силы и направления прыжка. Одно неверное движение может привести к длительному падению вниз, заставляя игрока начинать восхождение заново. Ключевой элемент геймплея – анализ окружения и планирование каждого прыжка. Игра поощряет терпение и умение учиться на ошибках, ведь каждое падение – это опыт, приближающий к заветной цели. В Jump King доступно дополнительное бесплатное контентное обновление "New Babe+".
Dawn of War 4 may be the most generous RTS I've played Da boyz are back in DoW. Maybe the best way to understand the kind of game Dawn of War 4 wants to be is through a single button. If you're playing a campaign mission in DoW 4 and you're not really feeling it, or you made a silly mistake right at the end and got summarily wiped by the AI, or maybe you're in a hurry and just really curious about what happens next in the story, you have a quietly revolutionary option to hand: you can just hit the 'skip mission' button, and move on. Read this next - Dawn of War 4 gets a release date delay to "further refine the experience ahead of launch" - As Total War: Warhammer 40,000 and Dawn of War 4 show off more gameplay, 40K fans have become locked in a fierce debate: are the lasgun lasers the wrong colour?

'There were a lot of disagreements across the place': Former Marathon director Joe Ziegler on leading Bungie's extraction shooter, playing Path of Exile for 3,437 hours, and why he'll never uninstall Kingdom Hearts Welcome to Disk Cleanup, our regular weekend feature delving into the PCs of PC gaming luminaries. Come back every weekend to read a new interview, digging into the important questions, like "How tidy is your desktop?" and "What game will you never uninstall?" Joe Ziegler might be best known for his role guiding the design of big competitive shooters, but his formative gaming experiences were with point-and-click adventures like King's Quest. "It was just that 'A-ha!' moment where videogames could be these really engaging ways for you to be clever and creative." Ziegler started out at Pandemic Studios, where he worked as a mission designer on 2009's The Saboteur. 2026 games: All the upcoming games Best PC games: Our all-time favorites Free PC games: Freebie fest Best FPS games: Finest gunplay Best RPGs: Grand adventures Best co-op games: Better together Rick has been fascinated by PC gaming since he was seven years old, when he used to sneak into his dad's home office for covert sessions of Doom.
'There is no secret sauce' to a successful live service game according to Overwatch's associate game director, but knowing your audience is a good start "We occupy this really unique spot in the middle." Not many live service games have stood the test of time quite like Overwatch. 10 years in and it's still been able to retain its playerbase, maintain momentum, and even ramp it up. Well, besides having really cute skins and a very enticing game loop, Team 4 figured out exactly where Overwatch needed to stand years ago. I can't wait for players to see some of the archetypes that are coming next season, and especially Season 1 next year." 2026 games: All the upcoming games Best PC games: Our all-time favorites Free PC games: Freebie fest Best FPS games: Finest gunplay Best RPGs: Grand adventures Best co-op games: Better together Elie is a news writer with an unhealthy love of horror games—even though their greatest fear is being chased.
This is The Stepback, a weekly newsletter breaking down one essential story from the tech world. For more on how pervasive horror has become, follow Andrew Webster. This despite costing a fraction of what a blockbuster film usually costs; Backrooms was made for an estimated $10 million, while Obsession cost less than $1 million. Elsewhere, Peacock has a Friday the 13th prequel called Crystal Lake starring Linda Cardellini as Jason Voorhees’ mom, and AMC Plus is putting out a spooky detective series called Yaga, which features Carrie-Anne Moss and Heated Rivalry’s Hudson Williams.
The best prequels typically share the same thing in common. Whether it's Red Dead Redemption 2, Yakuza 0, Metal Gear Solid 3, or Halo: Reach, each game tells a story that recontextualizes what came before. Revisiting a game after playing its prequel should alter the experience, providing you with new knowledge that changes how you perceive certain characters, places, and scenes. The events of Red Dead Redemption 2 add emotional weight to the first game and John Marston's mission by humanizing his targets, just as Yakuza 0 deepens the bond between Kazuma Kiryu and Akira Nishikiyama, making the first game's tragic finale much more impactful.
Zach Cregger's Resident Evil movie has done big numbers at the box office since it hit theaters on September 18, but has that been reflected in increased Resident Evil game sales? According to Alinea analyst Rhys Elliott, Capcom discounted several Resident Evil games on September 10 and kept those savings active after Cregger's movie arrived. "Resident Evil 2 nearly doubled on PS5 while doing just +16% on Steam, and Resident Evil 4 jumped +77% on PS5 versus a flat 0% on Steam. On Steam, the same movie effect is a much milder +11% to +14%." As Elliott noted, the older Resident Evil games currently cost much less than Capcom charged when they first went on sale, while the latest game in the series, Resident Evil Requiem, got a 30% discount and was $49 this month before its price went back up to $70.
Hytale's Chapter 1 update is all about them goblins, adding its first proper boss and "handcrafted" dungeon in October Prepare to be Gobliterated After months of smaller patches, Hytale’s early access phase is getting its inaugural Chapter update, confirmed release date and all. Chapter 1 is out on October 12th, and it’s a bundle of (mostly goblin-related) firsts: chiefly the game’s first "handcrafted" dungeon, a gruesome underground lair, and Hytale’s first bonefide boss fight, against a flamethrowing gob-king. Here be the trailer: As previously detailed in a blog post, the Chapter 1 update also expands the breadth of goblin foes – though the faction will include some friendly, if not terribly handsome faces – and will add a new world event, the Goblin Breach. Hypixel founder Simon Collins-Laflamme is even offering $15,000 to the first person to stream themselves taking him down without teammate help.
EA Sports FC has often been accused of focusing too much on Ultimate Team, while leaving other modes out in the cold. EA Sports FC 27 bucks that trend, making every mode feel like the star player. When we reviewed EA FC 26, we called it the “best football game in years,” praising the superb gameplay even if there wasn’t much ambition away from the grass. With the follow-up, EA Sports has gone in the opposite direction, playing it safe on the pitch while shaking things up behind the scenes.
This year was a relatively quiet PAX West ahead of the onslaught of games coming out in September and October, but we were still able to find some pretty slick games on and off the show floor that we're keeping an eye on. From cute tanukis to creepy cults to a new take on puzzling with portals, here are 9 games worth your attention. A Short Quest We're living in a cool era of indie games that are looking to resurrect some old-school game design, which is exactly what A Short Quest is. If you like the Gothic series or something like King's Field, hell even a feel of some early Elder Scrolls like Morrowind, you'll definitely want to check this game out.

If you've ever seen or played games like Jump King , Baby Steps , or Getting Over It , Cygames' new vertical adventure Where the Seeds Fall may prove to be something of a salve.

Zombie games are a dime a dozen, but I guarantee you've never seen one like Stupid Never Dies. See, in most games featuring the living dead, they're the enemy. In Stupid Never Dies, zombies are the star of the show; in particular, a shambling corpse named Davy, who might be a slow-moving and puny individual on the surface, but actually packs a mean punch when push comes to shove. After several looks at Stupid Never Dies throughout the year -- including interviews and a brief hands-on session -- I was still left with plenty of questions regarding both the game's story and gameplay structure.

Developer Cold Symmetry continues to tinker with Mortal Shell 2 , recently dropping a massive update that makes some substantial changes to its latest souls-like action-RPG. Alongside buffing certain weapons and fixing some glitches, the team has also addressed the game's greedy economy by making a few finite resources more plentiful around the world. Released on August 29, Mortal Shell 2's Week 1 Update makes some of the game's heaviest weapons stronger to compensate for their slowness. Full Mortal Shell 2 Week 1 Update Patch Notes New Items Fragile Tarstones - A new class of Tarstone which breaks after losing durability.
There’s something just a little bit different about FromSoftware’s office in Tokyo. Like with any other successful video game studio, there’s extensive security to get in the door, a minimalist lobby with framed posters from the studio’s most recent releases, and a large glass display case filled with statues from ceremonies ranging from the BAFTAs to The Game Awards. But the hallways are painted black, a fitting theme for a developer known for crafting dark, gothic worlds and a hint at what new creations are lurking inside. Sandwiched in between the launches of Dark Souls 3 (2016) and Elden Ring (2022) were a pair of one-off games — a solemn VR story called Déraciné in 2018, and a ninja action game called Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice a year later — that showed the studio expanding its range.
With a surprise remaster of The Lord of the Rings: War in the North dropping earlier this month and Andy Serkis’ film, Hunt for Gollum, now in production, I’ve had a real desire to jump back into Middle-earth recently. It was a formative fictional world for millions, whether you read J. Tolkien’s classic novels or fell deeply in love with the fantasy universe through Peter Jackson’s masterful film trilogy. But as a lifelong fan of turn-based JRPGs who grew up with classics like Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger, there is one LOTR video game in the avalanche of tie-ins that stood out above all others, and despite the hostile nature of this piece’s headline, I have plenty of nice things to say about it: The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age.

Atlus' Persona series sold a million copies during the three months of Sega's last financial quarter. Hype for Persona 4 Revival (coming next February) and Persona 6 (coming sometime after) might have had something to do with the continued sales momentum, of course, but the series is also home to some of the best JRPGs ever made. Publisher Sega recently published its financial results for the first quarter of its 2027 fiscal year, which runs from the beginning of April to the end of June 2026. The Like A Dragon franchise sold well over 600,000 copies in that frame, Sonic the Hedgehog neared a million copies sold, but Persona remained king with more than a million copies sold across all games in the series.
