Gas Station Simulator’s RV Camp DLC Revealed

Gas Station Simulator, the critically acclaimed management game from developer and publisher DRAGO entertainment that has now sold over 1 million copies, celebrates summer road trip season with the reveal of the upcoming RV Camp DLC. Today’s update on PC via Steam, Epic Games, and GOG introduces dynamic fuel pricing and highly requested controller support.

In the upcoming RV Camp DLC, assume the role of campground manager Ruby as she sets up shop alongside the gas station. Help Ruby fulfill her dream of creating the ultimate RV resort, welcoming guests from around the world. Rent out RV spots to visitors, take on challenges, participate in mini-games, and help raise the resort’s reputation, all in the name of customer satisfaction!

Expand the campground by unlocking the ability to hire employees to help support Ruby and keep things running smoothly. Engage in positive interactions with guests, keep them entertained, and help foster the experience of a lifetime. Attract a growing customer base and leave them feeling like Ruby’s RV Camp is the hottest destination in town!

Gas Station Simulator also brings an update introducing new pricing mechanics. Managers now determine their own fuel prices, dynamically controlling the economic system. Carefully balance the price of fuels based on the business needs, and heed caution. Raising prices is a high-risk, high-reward strategy that could potentially drive away customers, while lower prices boost customer traffic at the cost of reduced income.

The latest update, featuring dynamic fuel pricing, is now available and includes controller support, which players have eagerly requested since Gas Station Simulator’s launch. The RV Camp DLC arrives on PC via Steam, Epic Games, and GOG. Gas Station Simulator and all of its DLCs are currently on a historical low discount as part of the Steam Weekend Deal, alongside its friends over at Car Dealer Simulator.

If you want to stay up-to-date with the latest news, make sure to follow DRAGO entertainment on Twitter and Facebook. For more details regarding the DLC head over to the recently revealed Steam page.

Achilles: Survivor Console Reveal Trailer

After four successful months since the Early Access PC launch of mythology-fueled bullet heaven, Achilles: Survivor, the team at Dark Point Games is thrilled to announce that the frenetic fight for Ancient Greece will also be coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. In true bullet heaven fashion, Achilles: Survivor will have players fending off waves of enemies, but brings a unique twist to the genre, integrating an innovative building mechanic, allowing players to use defensive towers, healing structures, or offensive traps to help turn the tide of battle in their favour.

In Achilles: Survivor, players will be able to choose from a diverse roster of heroes, from Achilles himself, to a boulder-throwing cyclops, or even a small, but mighty rooster god. Each character boasts a unique skillset to challenge players to master different gameplay styles. Battle the hordes of the underworld on an assortment of playable maps drawing from various locales from the mythological story of Achilles such as Troy and Tartarus. Level up your character during each run to elevate them from hero to god of destruction as you gain stronger power-ups and abilities. Increase overall team stats between runs to increase your odds of winning the fight against Hades’ minions as you confront more lethal monsters and bosses.

Following the Trojan War, Hades, the god of the underworld, resurrected Achilles to use him in a conflict against the other gods. Once Achilles had served his purpose, Hades betrayed him, casting him into the depths of Tartarus and condemning him to eternal torment. Refusing to accept this fate, Achilles broke free from the underworld, rescuing many lost souls, including several who had fallen to his own sword. Angered by this defiance, Hades unleashed his dark minions to hunt down Achilles and all the souls he freed. Take on the mantle of Achilles or one of the many others rescued from Tartarus and prepare for a fight that will take you beyond the land of the living in the hopes of thwarting Hades and his army of the damned.

The Drifter Release Date Trailer

Indie development duo Powerhoof are today stoked to announce that their fast-paced, point and click thriller The Drifter will launch for Windows, macOS and Linux via Steam on 17 July 2025. A Nintendo Switch version is also in development and targeting a release later this year – further details of which will be announced in due course.

A demo for The Drifter is now available to download via Steam ahead of its participation in Steam Next Fest, which runs June 9 – June 16th. It features the game’s full first chapter, inviting players to experience its uniquely thrilling take on the classic adventure genre.

To coincide with the announcements, a high-octane new trailer effortlessly spotlights the game’s crunchy pixel art visuals and pulpy narrative – inspired by the works of Stephen King, John Carpenter and Michael Crichton.

The Drifter – Release Date Trailer

A classic 2D point and click adventure with the brake-lines cut – The Drifter plunges players headfirst into a web of shadowy corporations, conspiracy, murder, and the thousand year obsession of a madman.

Mick Carter’s been drifting a while now – moving from job to job, never staying one place long. Jumping a box-car to his old home town, he witnesses a violent murder, is pursued by hi-tech soldiers, thrown in a reservoir and drowned.

Just before his consciousness is ripped away, it is thrust back into his body. Alive again, seconds before his death. Mick is framed for the killing he witnessed, tormented by his own past, and haunted by the feeling that something followed him back from the other side…

The Drifter takes its cues from modern revival of the adventure genre and focuses on serving up a tight, razor-sharp narrative – propelling the player through the story – while grounded, unobtrusive and satisfying investigative puzzles act as the sinew between punchy narrative beats.
