Outerminds Inc. invite you to jump on your sick BMX, turn your Turbo Glove™ on and try Turbo Kid ahead of the August 5th release for the Nintendo Switch. Launching August 5th on Nintendo Switch – and with a major update for PC players the same day – Turbo Kid throws you into a hilariously violent wasteland crawling with scoundrels, weirdos, and enemies begging to be exploded.
You play as the Kid, a lone warrior armed with a machete, a mayhem-packed Turbo Glove™, and the ultimate human-powered weapon: a BMX bike. Fight through the wasteland with a gloriously absurd arsenal — Turbo Blasts, circular saws, rockets, lightning, ooze, and more — and make every encounter a hysterical splash of pixel gore. Explore zones and bosses in any order, meet a cast of oddballs offering quests, laughs, and questionable advice, and shape your story with choices that change your path. Or skip all the talking and speedrun your way straight through.
Alongside the Switch launch, PC players are also getting a major update, including:
New supported languages: Japanese & Simplified Chinese
Secondary weapons now cost about half as much, because more weapons = more fun
Improved Ooze Gun, leaving puddles that last longer on the ground
Improved Rocket accuracy so they actually hit things
Improved Lightning Gun, now reliably zaps enemies on the first try
Big performance optimization for lower-spec machines

Darksiders 4
And the number of the riders shall ever be four …
Critical Role, a leader in storytelling and world building, has officially announced Campaign 4, the highly anticipated next chapter in its flagship series. Premiering Thursday, October 2, the new campaign will introduce a brand new world, and, for the first time in Critical Role’s core campaign, a brand new Game Master: celebrated actual play creator and storyteller Brennan Lee Mulligan.
Mulligan will step into the Game Master seat for the full duration of Campaign 4, bringing his signature depth, humor, wit, and high-stakes drama to Critical Role’s next grand adventure. Known for his work as a creative powerhouse and masterful world builder on his long-standing Dropout actual play series Dimension 20 as well as his beloved podcast Worlds Beyond Number, Mulligan has become one of the most respected narrative talents in the space. In addition to his pioneering work in tabletop, Mulligan is a frequent improviser, collaborator and producer on other fan-favorite Dropout properties like Game Changer, Make Some Noise and Very Important People.
“We’ve been enormous fans of Brennan’s for many years now, and when it came to giving both Matthew Mercer and the world of Exandria a bit of a breather, Brennan felt like the perfect storyteller to take our community somewhere entirely new.” said Travis Willingham, CEO, co-founder, and cast member of Critical Role. “Critical Role has always been about genuine connection through storytelling first and foremost, and as Brennan himself will tell you, he’s still played more TTRPGs away from a camera than in front of it. His passion and drive for worldbuilding is infectious, and it’s been an absolute joy to spark off him as we forge ahead.”
Following the beloved sagas of Vox Machina (Campaign 1), The Mighty Nein (Campaign 2), and Bells Hells (Campaign 3), Critical Role’s new campaign represents a bold evolution for the franchise, ushering in a new era with new legends to be forged in a brand new world.
“What a gift, a privilege and an honor to be invited behind the screen of Critical Role for this next epic adventure,” said Mulligan. “Every collaboration we have had together has brought nothing but sheer joy, and Campaign 4 will be no exception. I’m finally playing *almost* as much tabletop as I’d like to!”
“We’re not just turning a page – we’re starting a whole new book,” added Marisha Ray, Creative Director, co-founder, and cast member of Critical Role. “Everything about Campaign 4 is fresh; new world, new tone, new possibilities. We can’t wait for the fans to experience what we’ve been building.”
Campaign 4 will premiere with instant access on Beacon.tv as well as streamed to Critical Role’s YouTube and Twitch channels on October 2, with the VOD available for everyone the following Monday and podcast episodes available in two parts: the first one week after the premiere, and the second on the following Tuesday. Beacon members will also get exclusive access to all episodes of Critical Role Cooldown for Campaign 4, where the cameras keep rolling and you get a front row seat to the cast’s post-show reactions. Further details – including cast, the world, game system, format, and more – will be revealed in the months to come. Go to Critical Role’s website or follow along on Instagram at @Critical_Role, TikTok at @CriticalRole, and Critical Role’s newsletter to stay up-to-date.
Sometimes, the threads spun by the Moirai are tangled beyond mortal comprehension. Fate rarely reveals its design in full – and when it comes to Titan Quest II, we’ve kept you wandering in the shadows for long enough. Today, the veil is lifted: Developer Grimlore Games and Publisher THQ Nordic are proud to proclaim that Titan Quest II will descend into Early Access on August 1st, 2025 – on Steam and the Epic Games Store!
So carve the date into your stone tablets, because your odyssey begins… checks sundial …by the gods of Olympus, it begins now! So why still linger in the realm of words?! Watch the Titan Quest II Early Access Launch Trailer and seize your copy on Steam or Epic before the fates change their minds!
Titan Quest II has now stepped onto the mortal plane, available for PC in Early Access. The full 1.0 release is fated to arrive at $49.99 / €49.99. But those who embark early on this quest will pay only $29.99 / €29.99 – and for the first seven days, a divine 20% discount will reduce the price even further to $23.99 / €23.99.
By joining Early Access, you enter a world already brimming with content, challenge, and mystery – but far from complete. Titan Quest II will evolve over time, shaped by your feedback and forged in the fires of community. Our aim? To emerge from the labyrinth of Early Access by the end of 2026. But as every hero knows, no path reveals its full length until it is walked.
Early Access is merely the beginning.
What fate have the Moirai spun for the future of Titan Quest II? Their tapestry is ever-shifting, threads twisting and turning with the choices of gods and mortals alike. We dare not claim to know all that lies ahead, but glimpses have been granted.
In the distance, whispers speak of a character creator, where heroes may shape their form as boldly or as subtly as Hephaestus shapes bronze. Ancient forges stir with the promise of crafting and transmogrification, arcane arts that let you wield your chosen armaments while appearing as heroic as a demigod. New masteries await, shrouded in mystery, offering paths of power not yet walked. Realms unseen and foes unknown gather beyond the mists, waiting for champions worthy of their wrath.
These are but fragments of the prophecy. The scrolls speak of much more -but their secrets will only be unveiled when the stars deem the time right.
The Betrayal at the Neibolt House The Evil of Pennywise Expansion retails for $24.99 and is available now at Amazon and your friendly local game store.
This expansion brings twice the terror: the nightmarish horror of It: Chapter Two meets the classic haunting fun of Betrayal at House on the Hill 3rd Edition. Three unique miniatures, new rooms, and new items and characters inspired by the films bring the story to life. Play as a resident of Derry and experience one of five unique haunts. When the haunt begins, you may find yourself embodying the terror of It or the deranged malice of Henry Bowers– or maybe you’ll have to work together and defeat Pennywise. Pay a visit to Derry–we all float down here.

What started with a handful of developers coming together to build on the success of Project Reality—the critically-acclaimed mod for Battlefield 2—has evolved into a world-renowned independent studio committed to excellence and innovation. Offworld is proud to celebrate 10 years as one of Canada’s leading game developers. The studio is best known for creating one of the most beloved military shooters of the last decade, Squad, and is excited to announce that Squad 44 and—for the first time ever—Starship Troopers: Extermination will both be playable for free on Steam between July 31st and August 4th. Simultaneously, Offworld will host a publisher sale offering a 50% discount on its entire catalogue, including: Squad, Squad 44, Starship Troopers: Extermination, and Beyond the Wire.
Despite growing uncertainty in the gaming industry for the past few years, Offworld continues to thrive by focusing on the development of impactful new games, leveraging its vast expertise in the first-person shooter genre, fostering a dedicated community, and expanding on its flagship title, Squad, which will celebrate its own 5th anniversary later this year. A full migration to Unreal Engine 5 is planned for this summer, bringing significant performance and graphical upgrades that will lay the foundation for Offworld to continue supporting Squad for years to come.
“Over these past ten years, our studio’s work has been enjoyed by millions of players around the world,” says Vlad Ceraldi, CEO at Offworld. “This is largely due to the passion of the founders, past and current employees, our community, business partners, and Offworld’s dedication to bringing players unique and authentic FPS experiences.”
“Offworld was born from the passion of modders, a spirit we vowed to carry forward. As a founder and player,” says Norbert Rothermel, Co-Founder and Director of Technology at Offworld. “It’s profoundly rewarding to see that commitment thrive in Squad, where our modding tools empower a community that generates a considerable percentage of the game’s unique experiences. This anniversary isn’t just about us; it’s a celebration of every creator and every player who has shaped this incredible journey.”
Squad—Offworld’s flagship title—is a first-person tactical shooter with a strong emphasis on teamwork, communication, and authentic combat. With millions of players worldwide and a growing community of fans, modders, and content creators, Squad sets the gold standard for large-scale tactical shooters.
Coming up to the 5th anniversary of its full 1.0 release in September, Squad remains one of the most-played and most beloved multiplayer shooters on Steam. It is currently 50% off until August 3rd. More updates—including the game’s full migration to UE5—are planned for later this summer, with additional surprises coming throughout Q3 and Q4 2025.
