The 1.0 launch of Escape From Tarkov marked a milestone I’d started to wonder if we’d ever see, almost a decade after one of the most genre-defining extraction shooters first burst onto the scene. But its departure from early access and arrival on Steam was somewhat overshadowed by a rather unlikely contender. Escape From Duckov combined a cheeky naming strategy with a game that, while rather different from its namesake, is actually a remarkably solid PvE survival shooter. But could the two now be about to collide? All signs point to ‘yes.’ Rumors of a collaboration between Escape From Tarkov…
Identifying Quarantine Zone contraband soon becomes as important as spotting those tell-tale signs that an incoming survivor may have been infected with the virus. If someone comes through your checkpoint with a rucksack, it’s up to you to inspect the contents and confiscate anything that may pose a threat.You’ll receive a nice little cash bonus for each forbidden item you seize, but be careful as you’ll also be fined for unnecessarily taking away anything that’s been deemed safe. To help you make the right calls, here’s a complete Quarantine Zone contraband list to work from, and what to do with…
As much as I’d rather pull someone into starting up another co-op Stardew Valley run than seek out a fresh alternative, I can’t help but be intrigued by Halcyon Days at Taoyuan – a similar life game with one key difference: martial arts. Because there’s no becoming a hero of the people through the growing of high-quality herbs and veggies without taking a deity down in the process. Launched this past Tuesday, almost eight years after the developer vowed to “create a similar game set in an authentic Chinese landscape” in the comments of their undisclosed favorite farming title, Halcyon…
Arc Raiders’ Escalation has been revealed, a roadmap for the first four months of 2026 that outlines much of what players can expect in the game’s future updates and patches.

Below we’ll cover everything we’ve seen in the Escalation roadmap for Arc Raiders, what we know, and what players need to prepare for – because it seems like things…
Launching your first game on Steam is always scary, given how busy Valve’s storefront is and how quickly anything can get lost in the shuffle, especially if you’re not a big name. But LORT developer Big Distraction is counting its blessings today as the new roguelike inspired by Risk of Rain 2 reaches an impressive six-figure milestone just a few days after its early access release. The ten-person team behind Steam’s latest winner says it “kept waiting for another Risk of Rain 2,” but “it never came, so we quit triple-A and made LORT.” While breakout 2025 indie hit Megabonk does…

The stupidly talented Riz Ahmed has recently spoken out about the wonders he’s witnessed while on the set of Digger, the new film from director Alejandro G. Iñárritu. After putting together unthinkable projects like one-take wonder, Birdman, and the beautifully bleak western, The Revenant, the director’s new film is a wild and completely original tale, which is a rarity for Cruise, who hasn’t told an original non-IP-based story in over ten years.Digger follows Cruise as the man responsible for unleashing a disaster upon the world, and does everything he can to redeem himself and prove that he’s humanity’s savior, not…

The confrontation led to…
Star of the new Strangers trilogy Madelaine Petsch has responded to complaints that previous Chapters 1 and 2 felt unfinished, and hopes that Chapter 3 will give horror fans the answers they are looking for.”With the first two films, the biggest complaint I received was ‘It doesn’t feel like a finished film,'” said Petsch in an interview with SFX Magazine. “And the answer is ‘Because it’s not!’ It’s act one, act two, and act three of a giant story. I’ve never seen that done before, where you’re guaranteed three parts of a film that have already been shot but we’re…
