LOVE ETERNAL, the unconventional horror platformer about escaping the domain of a selfish god from developer brlka and publisher Ysbryd Games (WORLD OF HORROR, VA-11 Hall-A), will launch on PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam in Q4 2025, as seen in today’s PC Gaming Show.
When Maya leaves the dinner table to answer a phone call, she returns to find her family missing, her home destroyed, and her surroundings transmuted into an unfamiliar, eerie landscape reminiscent of the Iron Age. Seek a way out of this strange predicament by navigating the unpredictable liminal spaces and ignoring Earthly laws of physics – but not before confronting the powerful god responsible for her abduction.
Dash through the crumbling chambers of a labyrinthine castle, leaping, flipping, and strategically landing on the floors and ceilings of each puzzle-like room. Plan jump arcs carefully to make use of environmental boons that trigger Maya’s ability to flip gravity in midair, and avoid razor-sharp spikes, shifting lasers, and other deadly obstacles in precision platforming challenges.
Take in vast, desolate landscapes as disquieting ambient tones haunt the god’s domain. Gaze at imposing, yet lonely, statues throughout the realm’s many environments, from undersea caverns to uncanny copies of Maya’s suburban home. Brave encounters with monstrous doppelgängers of Maya’s family and friends, and meet other victims of the deity’s abductions.
“During development we put a lot of time and care into the castle’s atmosphere, creating music and ambience whose interplay expressed a sense of forlornness, and using a painterly style of pixel art to give a sense of a world much larger than the small corners you see as the player,” said Toby Alden, designer at brlka. “We’re looking forward to sharing the secrets of this time-worn realm later this year.”
LOVE ETERNAL will reveal Maya’s attempts at escape on PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam in Q4 2025 with English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, Spanish, and Russian language support.

Chasing Rats Games, the mischievous minds behind Struggling, just dropped a brand new trailer during the PC Gaming Show for their upcoming title Worship, a Pikmin-inspired, co-op roguelite about blood rituals, cult management, and doomsday devotion.
Following a sucessful kickstarter campaign and funded by Kowloon Nights – a videogame fund supporting amazing indie titles such as Spiritfarer and Sea of Stars – Chasing Rats Games has also revealed the game releases in Early Access on July 16, 2025 exclusively on PC via Steam, inviting players to don the robes of a zealot, carve symbols in blood, and incite the apocalypse alongside friends in online co-op chaos.
Worship is a multiplayer game where up to four players team up to spread their faith, grow their cult, and bring on the apocalypse. Inspired by Pikmin, the game puts a twisted spin on real-time unit control, as players use hordes of loyal followers to fight, explore, and—when necessary—be sacrificed in grisly rites to appease their dark deity. With its striking ink-sketch aesthetic and hand-drawn animations, the art direction walks a razor’s edge between disturbing and delightful, combining gleeful absurdity with unsettling rituals.
Key Features:
Blood Rites – Draw mystical symbols with blood to cast devastating spells, manipulate your environment, and solve puzzles.
Followers are Everything – Command your faithful to fight, carry, destroy, and die for your cause. Their devotion is absolute… and expendable.
Ever-Changing World – Each run takes place in a procedurally generated map, filled with rival factions, evolving challenges, and divine tests of faith.
Test your Faith with Friends – Complete rituals, earn devotion, and prove yourself worthy in boss encounters before summoning your god into the mortal realm through online co-op multiplayer.
Worship will launch in Early Access on July 16 2025 and is available to wishlist on Steam right now. Stay updated on the game’s official Discord for the latest news straight from the source.
Publisher Dotemu (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, Streets of Rage 4) and developer The Game Kitchen (Blasphemous series) today announced the digital release date of NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound as part of the PlayStation State of Play showcase. Ready your blade for a demonic invasion when this original 2D side-scrolling action platformer releases July 31 on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Xbox – and get the drop on enemies early when NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound’s first playable demo debuts in Steam Next Fest next week. (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2542120/NINJA_GAIDEN_Ragebound/)
NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound’s release date trailer unleashes a wave of otherworldly evil that demands eagle-eyed evasiveness and razor-sharp precision. Stand still and you’re dead. Only true ninjas will survive the relentless assault of blades, claws and demonic enemies. Master the distinct abilities of Kenji and Kumori, the two playable characters shown in today’s new gameplay, through thrilling action that inherits the legacy of KOEI TECMO GAMES’ NINJA GAIDEN series.
Today’s reveal confirms that guest composers Keiji Yamagishi, Ryuichi Niita and Kaori Nakabai—creators of the original NES NINJA GAIDEN trilogy soundtracks—have contributed to NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound. Leading the soundtrack is Sergio de Prado, best known for his work on the acclaimed Blasphemous series.
NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound begins immediately after the opening moments of the original NES NINJA GAIDEN. The veil between the human and demon realms has broken, leaving the world linked with a gate to darkness. Since Ryu Hayabusa leaves the Hayabusa Village to avenge his father, Kenji Mozu, a fledgling Hayabusa Clan Ninja central to NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound, must rise to slay the forces of evil.
Kenji’s destiny is intertwined with Kumori, a fearsome new kunoichi hailing from the antagonistic Black Spider Clan central to the NINJA GAIDEN series. Kenji and Kumori must overcome the generational grudges between their clans and use forbidden techniques to merge their powers and survive the battles ahead, binding their fates together to share a test of soul and skill while maximizing their talents.
Kenji and Kumori’s high-stakes quest develops with show-stopping fights against powerful, boss-caliber behemoths. With upgradable abilities, hidden collectibles, unlockable secret missions, optional challenges and more, NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound is an engrossing modernization of the tense, satisfyingly swift battles and precise, skill-demanding platforming the series is known for.
NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound features exquisite pixel art, evoking the classic 2D games while bringing lush environments and a menacing cast of enemies to life in striking, wonderfully intricate detail. The dynamic action pairs with a pitch-perfect soundtrack featuring contributions from special guest composers, coalescing into an unforgettable adventure.
