Dune: Awakening had a more devastating downfall than a Russian tsar, with the MMO reaching an incredible 189,333 peak player count on Steam back in 2025 and spending the cold months since then collecting only a fraction of that – about 10,000 players a day. But developer Funcom is sort of at peace with it.Lead producer Ole Andreas and senior content manager Tor Egil discuss this with FRVR in a new interview about Dune: Awakening. “It is a live game, and it’s a natural thing to see the cycles.” Egil explains, “It’s overall hard to expect to keep launch player…
“I think a lot of survival games are really boring,” Geoff ‘Zag’ Keene, founder of Deep Field Games, developers of Half-Life adjacent co-op survival game Abiotic Factor, said in a recent interview. However, despite these strong words, please hold onto your spit take for just a moment. It’s not the first time Keene’s said something like it and, in fact, in the episode of The AIAS Game Maker’s Notebook, he’s responding to a question about when he said it to cheery RPS fanzine PC Gamer back in 2024. So, please, calmly swallow your spit take liquid of choice, so I…

Prime Video’s Fallout TV series may very well be taking a page out of Fallout 4 when it comes to the Ghoul/Cooper Howard reuniting with his family.Warning: spoilers for the Fallout season 2 ending follow.”I think one of the fun things about the Fallout world is that cryo exists,” Robertson-Dworet explained to Cinema Blend, when asked if Cooper Howard’s family is still alive. “So there’s always these questions of, ‘Were they in cryo before she left the note? Are they in cryo again? What is happening? How old would Barb be now? How many years has she been out of…
If the biggest games on Steam were celestial bodies, Rust would be an especially brown and bloody moon, kind of like the one from Iron Lung but with more survival game dirt and wood. Here in the year 2026, Rust is consistently the most-played survival game on Steam and still getting enormous updates. In a February 5 dev blog, Facepunch Studios unveiled a naval update packing an entire ocean worth of content, from player boats to city boats to evil boats. Oh, and the game is 50% off right now.”It’s a big one,” the perilously long post begins, and player-made…

Having once called Lies of P the best Soulslike ever made outside FromSoftware’s walls, I find myself nodding along to comments from Nioh 3 director Masaki Fujita, who says the bosses in Neowiz’s Pinocchio-inspired game pushed him and Team Ninja to do more with the third game’s yokai boss fights.Speaking with PC Gamer, Fujita notes that Team Ninja’s own output since Nioh 2 has, of course, had a big impact on its vision for Nioh 3. You can see muscles trained with the likes of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty and Rise of the Ronin flexed in Nioh 3’s expanded ninja…
