Bloober Team, the global leader in immersive psychological horror video game experiences, today released a new video celebrating Rutger Hauer’s final role as lead character Daniel Lazarski in Observer: System Redux. Marking seven years since his passing in 2019 and nearly nine years since the game was first released in 2017, the game’s lead designer, Wojciech Piejko, shared new behind the scenes details of Bloober Team’s collaboration with Hauer to create a unique cyberpunk experience that delivered a full-circle moment in his legendary career.
“We showed him the game, and for him it was a…bit of an emotional moment. We were so inspired by Blade Runner and his work…he said it was like a circle, like ‘I inspired you with this movie and now I can go back to this cyberpunk universe’.” – Wojciech Piejko, lead game designer at Bloober Team
Available on all major platforms and most recently launching on Nintendo Switch 2 last month, Observer System Redux has stood the test of time as an enduring and immersive Cyberpunk experience thanks to Hauer’s performance as elite investigator Daniel Lazarski. As Lazarski, players will find themselves in the year 2084 where war is endless, corrupt corporations possess unthinkable power and a mysterious cyber-plague has decimated the population. In pursuit of his missing son, Lazarski must utilize a device known as the Dream Eater to hack into the minds of the dead and dying and risk his own sanity to uncover the terrible truth.
The newly released Nintendo Switch 2 version of Observer: System Redux gives players unprecedented freedom in experiencing the harsh and unrelenting cyberpunk world of 2084. Players will be able to enjoy the game anywhere at any time when playing in handheld mode, or play docked to experience the game in its highest visual fidelity.

Stardock today released Galactic Civilizations IV: Federations & Empires, an expansion that replaces the series’ single government track with four completely distinct forms of government. The base game gives players one way to govern. Federations & Empires rebuilds the entire Government screen around each form’s own resource, core loop, and free hero ship, so picking one means playing what feels like a different strategy game. The expansion is available now on Steam, Epic Games Store, and direct through Stardock for $24.99, and it ships alongside a free Version 4.0 update for every Galactic Civilizations IV owner.
“Our goal is that each government type changes the way players play the game,” said Brad Wardell, Lead Designer of the expansion. “Each government has its own special ships, resources, improvements, and more.”
New forms of government each giving a new game experience
Players now have five distinct ways to govern a civilization in Galactic Civilizations IV: the free Colonial Charter included in Version 4.0, and four new advanced governments introduced in the expansion.
The Governments include:
Colonial Charter: the starting government. Light-touch, flexible, and approachable for existing players and included for free in v4.0.
Oligarchy: three Councilors split power across Commerce, Industry, and Governance. Market forces shape the destiny of the civilization, and the player focuses on investments, equities and political favors.
Technocracy: a continuous Optimization Grid replaces policies. Run simulations to preview outcomes. Players construct massive Optimizers to send to their worlds who execute the player’s instructions.
Empire: Imperial Decrees that scale with the size of your domain. Vassal management, rebellions and a general focus on extracting as much as possible from vassals to empower the homeworld.
Federation: the apex civilian government. Players must build consensus with their worlds with the reward being partner worlds that are greater than the sum of their parts.
Politics that pushes back Federations & Empires introduces four Political parties: Militarists, Progressives, Traditionalists and Industrialists, whose influence rises and falls based on what is actually happening in your empire. Parties make demands, form coalitions, and put pressure on which policies you can pass.
Elections, coups, popular revolutions, and secession crises are driven by game state, not random rolls. Run an Empire badly enough and the people rise up. Let your military faction grow too strong during an unpopular war and your general may seize power. The player always has a meaningful choice in the resolution.
Free for Galactic Civilizations IV owners: the v4.0 update
Every Galactic Civilizations IV owner receives Version 4.0 at no cost. That update is also where the Colonial Charter ships, alongside the following.
Map Editor: Players can place stars, clusters, anomalies, and home worlds by hand and save the result as a reusable map.
Custom Maps: Players can start a game on any hand-built galaxy instead of a random one. They can also trade maps with the community!
Turn Notifications: Everything that needs attention each turn now surfaces directly on the main screen.
Mini Map: A whole-galaxy overview is always available in the sidebar.
Institutions: Leaders can be assigned to run Institutions that boost a civilization’s science, manufacturing, military, and more.
Diplomacy & Trade: The deal-making screen has been redesigned so players can assemble and read multi-item trades at a glance.
AI Improvements: Opponents are smarter across exploration, warfare, diplomacy, and government play.

tinyBuild (Graveyard Keeper, Potion Craft, Kingmakers) and developer Questing Goose Studio are thrilled to announce Probably Stolen, a gritty new cyberpunk shopkeeping simulator where the customers are dubious and the goods even more so! Run your shop, choose what you sell, and do your best to survive amidst the crime and corruption of the Lower Levels. How far are you willing to go to make a quick buck in the retail underworld? Find out in Probably Stolen’s debut playtest, available now on Steam!
On the Lower Levels, survival isn’t about being good – it’s about being profitable. In a dystopian space station split by wealth and corruption, your business runs on merchandise of questionable origins. Buy and sell what you can to survive, navigate faction loyalties, and use your gun when necessary. Just remember – if the profit margin looks good, it’s Probably Stolen.
Key Features
PROFIT COMES FIRST: Choose to start as a gunsmith, chemist, water merchant, fence, farmer…or from pure rock bottom. Every product has its own profit curve and way of ruining you – weapons face inspections, contraband brings raids. Some trades need heavy machinery and permits, others just a good hiding spot. You’re not just choosing a theme for your shop; you’re choosing what kind of trouble you’re willing to monetize.
KNOW YOUR CUSTOMERS: You never know who’s on the other side of the counter. Today’s shoppers could be Security fishing for evidence, a revolutionary looking for leverage, or someone shady testing your usefulness. Every sale is a gamble. Approve, refuse, report or look away – someone is always taking notes.
RISK & REWARD: Each item has its own risks and rewards. Your margins depend on how well you can assess what’s in front of you. Misjudge the item or the person selling it, and you absorb the cost. You can always cut the product’s quality to earn a little extra dough – but be careful not to incur the wrath of Security or mob justice.
BEWARE THE LANDLORD: Rent increases over time, regardless of how well your week went. If you fall behind, your shop will suffer the consequences, forcing you to choose between playing it safe or taking a big bet to get back in the black. But one bad purchase or illegal bust could be all it takes to lose your business forever.
SHOOT ON SIGHT: Rogue AI-augmented individuals live among us, secretly kidnapping people for nefarious objectives. All factions on the station agree – shoot on sight! Keep an eye out for suspicious shoppers and pull the trigger when necessary.
Wargaming, developer and publisher of the hit naval battle MMO World of Warships: Legends, is celebrating seven years on the seven seas with a packed August update. Headlining the update are anniversary festivities including themed rewards and a special event, plus a brand-new battle mode featuring modern era warships. August’s update also welcomes another 5-week campaign packed with rewards, new Ranked Seasons and more.
Celebrate Seven Years of World of Warships: Legends
To celebrate seven years of fast-paced, Legendary battles, players can celebrate the game’s anniversary through plenty of special activities. Across a daily Calendar, web-based Treasure Hunt event, and other activities during the update, players can earn a special currency, Mariner’s Coins. These can be exchanged for various rewards, including two new and rare ships, Soviet Tier V Premium battleship Novorossiysk and Spanish Tier VIII Premium cruiser Almirante Oquendo. In addition to these vessels, players can get their hands on Explorer’s Chests, which feature birthday-themed rewards from previous years, and the chance to drop a Grand Explorer’s Chest, which can drop exclusive golden ships or new German Legendary Tier battleship Mecklenburg.
A Brand New Modern Era Battle Mode
One of the update’s major additions is the Modern Era battle mode, a new limited-time experience featuring warships inspired by late Cold War-era vessels and equipped with advanced armaments. Available across the next two updates, players can participate in both player-versus-player and player-versus-environment battles, utilising new modern technologies from offensive homing and cruise missiles, to advanced defensive systems and EMP waves. By playing and upgrading ships, players can unlock various rewards, including a Commonwealth Tier VI Premium light cruiser as the final prize.
A New Noble Lombard Campaign
A new campaign, Noble Lombard, also arrives, spanning five weeks and 100 milestones, and packed with rewards. Waiting at the end, for players with active Admiralty Backing, is Italian Tier VIII Premium cruiser Ferrante Gonzaga. Achieving high speeds, and armed with battle-ready consumables, Ferrante Gonzaga boasts rapid-firing guns that spray high-explosive and semi-armor piercing shells, and powerful torpedoes, making her a formidable foe on the battlefield.
New Ways to Earn and Use Steel
Also arriving in the game is Franklin D. Roosevelt, a brand new U.S. Legendary Tier aircraft carrier with immense attacking power, available to purchase for Steel in the Forge section of the Store. Players looking to earn more Steel to unlock the Legendary vessel can do so via new Ranked Seasons offering double the usual amount of Steel, as well as via Endless Trials in the Noble Lombard campaign, Premium Supplies missions, and the special Steel Hunter mission.
