Com2uS, a powerhouse developer behind MLB-licensed games, announced that MLB RIVALS, a previously mobile-only competitive baseball game, will be bringing the competition to Steam Early Access, followed by a full global launch in 2025. MLB RIVALS’ Steam release is set for November 12, and it will be available in Korean, English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Spanish. The Steam release will allow users to cross-play the game on both mobile and PC platforms using the same account. Experience baseball action on PC and enjoy updated graphics and epic competition based on real-life teams, MLB Players, and stadiums that Rivals is already known for on mobile.
MLB RIVALS boasts high-quality graphics that showcase all MLB teams and stadiums plus tens of thousands of spectators in high-definition. Players will also be able to utilize game controllers (such as the DualSense Wireless Controller and Xbox Wireless Controller) for an updated gaming experience while taking advantage of Cross-Play across mobile and PC.
Experience a dizzying array of gameplay modes, including single- and multiplayer modes like League, Live Match and Ranked Slugger. By using motion capture to bring the Players’ unique forms and actual movements to the game, MLB Rivals offers an immersive, wholly authentic presentation.
“Since the success of MLB RIVALS at launch last year, Com2uS has wanted to expand the ultra-competitiveness and realism to a wider audience and create a baseball gaming experience worthy of their passion,” said Richard Grisham, Director of Business Development at Com2uS USA. “With high-definition graphics, more control options, and more content than ever, this is an elevated baseball experience for newcomers and seasoned players alike.”
Players can follow MLB RIVALS here and will receive 50 Advanced Scout Tickets if the 10,000 followers milestone is reached and 20 additional Advanced Scout Tickets for every 10,000 followers beyond that.
MLB RIVALS, previously titled MLB 9 INNINGS RIVALS, embodies two decades of baseball game production expertise and technology to showcase invigorating baseball features, including realistic ballparks of all MLB clubs and top-notch graphics of fan-favorite MLB Players, officially licensed by MLB Players, Inc. and the league.
MLB RIVALS enters Steam Early Access for PC on November 12 before its full launch in Spring 2025. Steam is one of the world’s largest PC game platforms with over one billion users. It recorded over 35 million concurrently online users in March, renewing its own 34 million record in a week.

“When we think of our farms, we think of lives well spent”, a seasoned farmer tells viewers in the Launch Trailer of Farming Simulator 25. Now available on PC and consoles, publisher and developer GIANTS Software invites returning and aspiring virtual agriculturists to ignite their passion for the wholesome and rewarding life in the countryside.
“This Farm is Your Farm”
“For experienced farmers, the game marks the next step in playfully living their passion”, says Christian Ammann, CEO of GIANTS Software. “For everyone else, it’s a relaxing, immersive, and community-oriented opportunity to grow a new hobby, cultivate exciting knowledge, and ultimately harvest the rewarding feeling of freedom and accomplishment.”
Easy First Steps on Fields
With more variety, opportunities, and challenges, Farming Simulator 25 allows players to experiment, learn and grow. Increased accessibility through improved user interfaces, information, and tutoring non-player characters make the family-friendly series even more welcoming for beginners. The new GPS-based steering assistant as well as reworked and improved AI-workers allow additional help and automation on busy fields.
Farming Means Business
Whether focusing on arable farming, animal husbandry, or forestry, the dream of farming can be achieved with a small farm and a few lovely farm shops to sell goods, or by growing it into an empire: With production chains, factories, construction projects, and even community monuments like temple grounds or a grain elevator museum, providing long-term goals and endless activities for the farmer’s ambitions.
With three environments in North America, Europe, and East Asia, 25 field crops, plus many greenhouse crops and trees, and several types of animals, each farmer can choose their starting point – single-handedly or in co-op multiplayer. Machine enthusiasts enjoy over 400 authentic machines from over 150 international top brands like Case IH, CLAAS, Fendt, John Deere, Kubota, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, and Valtra. Other new features include ground deformation, weather events, and general improvements of graphics and physics.
RØDE is excited to announce its smallest, simplest and sleekest wireless microphone to date – the Wireless Micro. RØDE has been the premier brand for cutting-edge, high-quality wireless microphones for over a decade. The WirelessGO™ was the world’s first compact wireless microphone system, revolutionizing on-camera audio for creators around the world. Its small size, clip-and-go design, professional sound quality and in-built microphones formed the foundation of the RØDE wireless range, which soon grew to include wireless audio solutions for creators at every level and across every category. Now, the Wireless Micro is changing the game again, revolutionizing smartphone content creation by delivering RØDE’s wireless foundation in its most accessible format yet.
The Wireless Micro is a pocket-sized wireless microphone system tailor-made for smartphone creators. Available in both black and white, and with versions for either USB-C or Lightning devices, the slimline receiver connects directly to a phone with no need for cables, making for a super compact and tidy recording setup. It features two ultra-compact, ultra-lightweight transmitters with integrated clips and magnetic attachments that are incredibly easy to mount on a subject while remaining discreet on camera. The built-in microphones are housed in acoustic chambers with a patent-pending design, purpose-built to capture exceptionally clear and intelligible audio while mitigating wind noise. Combining this innovative design with RØDE’s legacy of pristine wireless audio transmission and intelligent GainAssist technology, the Wireless Micro delivers perfectly balanced audio, every time. Finally, the super sleek charging case is perfectly pocket-sized and delivers two full recharges for up to 21 hours of battery life, all while keeping the system safe and secure – the ideal grab-and-go solution for smartphone creators.
KEY FEATURES OF THE WIRELESS MICRO:
In-built microphones and automatic pairing makes it incredibly easy to use
Receiver connects directly to a smartphone with no cables required (USB-C or Lightning version available)
Patent-pending acoustic chamber design purpose-built to capture exceptionally clear and intelligible audio while mitigating wind noise
IntelligentGainAssist technology automatically controls audio levels for perfectly balanced sound in any application
Pocket-sized charging case provides additional two charges for up to 21 hours battery life, making it the ideal grab-and-go companion

NO CABLES, NO COMPLICATIONS, PURE CREATIVITY
The Wireless Micro makes it easier than ever to capture crystal-clear wireless audio for smartphone content, removing as much friction from the creative process as possible. The transmitters are automatically paired and feature integrated clips, magnetic mounts and built-in, high-quality microphones, so they’re ready to roll right away. Simply connect the receiver directly to a phone, clip on the transmitters, and start recording – no cables or complicated controls to worry about.
The Wireless Micro also features RØDE’s intelligent GainAssist technology, which automatically controls volume levels on-the-fly, removing the need to constantly fuss over settings and mitigating the risk of accidentally ruining a take with clipped or quiet recordings. This feature means creators can record upload-ready audio right away, no matter how much of a background they have in audio. Not only that, but this immediacy also removes the need for any editing or post-processing – a huge win for the mobile workflow.
ALWAYS SOUND YOUR BEST
While modern smartphones are more than capable of recording exceptional video footage, their integrated microphones are generally lacking, especially when it comes to capturing audio at a distance. This is where the Wireless Micro comes in.
Each transmitter features a patent-pending acoustic chamber design, which houses the microphone and is purpose-built to mitigate wind noise and capture exceptionally clear audio while remaining as compact as possible. The omnidirectional pickup pattern captures sound from all around, making placement and positioning super simple. Combining this withGainAssist makes for perfectly balanced, even audio, even if the microphone moves during recording or its placement isn’t ideal.
TELL YOUR STORY, WHEREVER IT TAKES YOU
The Wireless Micro was born of RØDE’s mission to condense its exceptional legacy of pristine wireless audio into its most compact and portable format yet. The result is the ultimate pocket-sized companion for creators on the go, with a super sleek and premium design that inspires confidence with every use.
The transmitters’ ultra-compact form factor and ultra-lightweight build – weighing just 12 grams – make them perfect for clipping onto talent while remaining discreet on-camera, and their splash proof design means they can even handle inclement weather. The pocket-sized charging case keeps the system safe and secure on the move and, with an extra two recharges on-board for a total battery life of 21 hours, theWireless Micro is ready whenever and wherever the creator takes it.
The release of the Wireless Micro marks another milestone in the evolution of creator technology, and another step in RØDE’s mission to provide high-quality, accessible audio solutions for today’s creative generation.
The RØDE Wireless Micro is US$149 and available to order at your local RØDE dealer or via the RØDE website.
We are excited to announce Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White, which will be available in limited quantities beginning November 18th at 3:00PM Pacific Standard Time. It will be shipping everywhere Steam Deck currently ships (including Australia!)
Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White has all the same specs as the Steam Deck OLED 1TB model, but in white and grey (and it comes with an exclusive white carrying case). It’s available in limited quantities, with stock allocated proportionally across each region (meaning separate availability for US, CA, UK, EU, AU, and regions covered by KOMODO (Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and South Korea). Again, this is a limited edition, so we wanted to give folks who want it a fair chance at getting it no matter where they live— because once we’re out, we’re out!
Mark your calendars for Monday November 18th at 3:00pm PST
Why we’re doing this:
Last year, we released a smoky translucent limited edition Steam Deck OLED as an experiment to find out if there was interest in alternative colorways (there was!). This is our second experiment along those lines. The difference this time (aside from the color!) is that we’re able to ship the Limited Edition White to all regions where Steam Deck already ships. We’re curious to see what the response is, and will use what we learn to inform future decisions about any potential new color variants down the line.
We’ve been super happy with the reception of Steam Deck since we first launched the LCD version in March of 2022. We’ve always said our intent is to continually work on improving Steam Deck, and that’s true from both a software perspective (continuing to ship improvements) and a hardware one (Steam Deck OLED, as well as ongoing work toward the future of Steam Deck and other hardware plans).
Today, Fatshark announces the opening of pre-orders for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, which will be coming digitally to PlayStation 5 on December 3rd, 2024. Those who pre-order the Imperial Edition will be eligible to play six days early.
