Last Summer Official Announcement Trailer

News, Geek News, Halloween, Trailers / Videos, Windows PC News

Developer Silent Lamb Studio is thrilled to reveal Last Summer, a blood-chilling multiplayer horror experience coming to PC via Steam. Built around a unique asymmetrical gameplay system, players will either step into the role of a relentless killer, stalking the shadows and hunting down their prey, or fight for survival as part of a group of campers, where teamwork, instinct, and fear are all that stand between life and a brutal end.

What begins as a carefree getaway quickly descends into terror. A group of friends arrives at Silent Lamb Camp ahead of the summer season, filling their nights with laughter, alcohol, and ghost stories around the campfire. But when the tale of a masked killer, said to arrive on a ghostly train and leave nothing but blood and silence behind, turns out to be more than just a story, their final night becomes a desperate fight to survive.

In Last Summer, players must hunt or be hunted. As the killer, your objective is simple: stalk, isolate, and eliminate every last victim. As a camper, survival depends on teamwork, quick thinking, and making the most of every opportunity to escape. With multiple routes to freedom, dynamic encounters, and constant tension, no two matches play out the same, and every decision could be your last.

The nightmare unfolds in unpredictable ways thanks to a range of systems designed to keep every session fresh and brutal. Each survivor will have set stats that directly impact gameplay and create meaningful variation between matches, and players can cosmetically customise their survivors’ skins using the character tool. Campers can equip items, fight back, and coordinate their escape, while killers can unleash visceral execution moves and strike fear into their prey. Set in a completely original universe, Last Summer delivers a fresh take on asymmetrical horror, built around community-driven design at its core.

The hunt begins now. Watch the first reveal trailer to witness Last Summer in action with its debut reveal footage, and wishlist the game on Steam to stay up to date as more details emerge. This summer, no one leaves the camp the same, if they leave at all.

The developers of Road Truckers: New Beginning, an indie trucking sim with RPG elements, is preparing for an open playtest on Steam. The playtest version of the game, and later the demo, aims to rival full games in terms of content and map size. The game is coming to PC and PlayStation 5.

See the new trailer, showcasing an updated look of the game.

GAME INFO | In Road Truckers: New Beginning, you’re a trucker from Esperanza, a forgotten town well past its prime. The townsfolk chipped in to fund your first truck, so you can expand your business and invest in the town in return.

Your truck is fully customizable, so in the course of the game, you’ll turn it from a rust bucket to a powerful beast.

The game features not just driving and hauling cargo, but on-foot exploration, numerous NPC quest givers, character development, truck upgrades, base expansion, and more.

PLAYTEST | The playtest, and later the demo, will feature the amount of content comparable to some full releases.

“Our maps are massive. We have two in the game, and want to add more in the game’s life cycle. The first one, smaller than the second but still huge, will be fully available in the playtest – and it’s just a fraction of the roads you’ll find in the full game,” says Michal Puczynski, creative director of the project.

The open alpha version playtest will serve to widely test the game’s mechanics and stability across a variety of systems, and improve the player onboarding for such a massive project.

“We need to teach the player how to drive, how to maintain the truck, how to eat, sleep, cure diseases, upgrade the base, use the workshops, find help when stranded, etc. Player onboarding is a big task, and we hope that players will help us make it the best it can be.”

GET READY | The game is confirmed to run on the lowest details on PCs with 1060 family GPUs and 16 GB of RAM. At least 3080 and 32 GB RAM are recommended for visual quality.

More information about playtest dates and the feedback loop will come soon. Wishlist and follow the game now on Steam and stay tuned!

Conan the Barbarian Invades Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel in Massive New DLC

The day has finally come! Conan the Barbarian invades Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel on PC ($5,49), PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S ($6,99). A 10% launch discount will be offered for a limited time.

The Cimmerian Cometh

In Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel, Conan arrives as a force of pure battlefield dominance. His combat style is defined by momentum and aggression, centered around his unique Triumph mechanic. By defeating enemies, Conan builds Triumph stacks that allow him to shrug off incoming damage, turning him into an unstoppable juggernaut. With the Born in Battle trait granting elevated critical lethality and the Ram Dash allowing him to plow through enemy ranks, Conan is a slayer without equal.

Players can master three distinct Paths of Legend through his sub-classes:

  • King of Aquilonia: A heavy great sword wielder focused on raw power, devastating cleaves, and punishing dashes.
  • Stygian Gladiator: A defensive powerhouse utilizing a sword-and-shield to stun enemies and scale survivability with every Triumph stack.
  • Zamorian Rogue: A lightning-fast dual-wielder who converts Triumph into evasive mobility and endless dash charges.

Explore the Sands of Stygia

The DLC expands the world of Jotunnslayer with Conan’s own realm of Stygia. This sun-scorched, hostile environment introduces unique visibility challenges and illusion-driven threats. Players must navigate ancient ruins guarded by necromantic forces to uncover powerful relics. Waiting at the heart of the waste is a new nightmare: the Undead Jotunn, an ancient Stygian wizard-king who uses forbidden magic and deceptive attack patterns to control the battlefield.

The God of Fate

Launching alongside the DLC is a major game update that introduces the God of Fate. This new deity offers a high-stakes risk-and-reward blessing system. By investing in Fate, players generate symbols that determine their rewards—ranging from massive gold bursts and resource boosts to run-defining power spikes. But be warned: Fate is fickle, and greedy players may find their luck running dry.

Local Co-op – Free update for all players

Alongside the DLC, Local Co-op launches as a FREE UPDATE.
Built and refined based on your playtest feedback, co-op is designed for shared chaos without slowing down the pace of combat.

Key features:

  •  two-player shared runs
  •  alternating level-up choices to keep a fast flow
  •  expanded build synergy across classes and gods
  •  adjusted active skill slots to preserve balance
  •  drop-in assistance – host retains progression

It’s a different tactical experience – more coordination, more combo potential, more battlefield moments.
