ROCKFISH Games has announced a massive new expansion for their award-winning space looter-shooter RPG. EVERSPACE 2: Wrath of the Ancients continues the EVERSPACE 2 story, adding new star systems to explore and expanding existing star systems with new side quests. The expansion will be available on Steam, GOG, Xbox, and PlayStation when it launches later this Spring.
Players will be able to pilot a new ship to battle against alien enemies and ancient threats in an all-new story set after the events of EVERSPACE 2. Mysterious attacks have laid waste to human settlements in Cluster 34, destabilizing factions in power and stranding survivors. With this destruction, the uneasy peace between humankind and Okkar is threatened—space pilots will venture into the Okkar Homeworlds to discover the truth behind the threat before war reignites the DMZ.
During the events of Wrath of the Ancients, warp gates open to four new fully explorable star systems including the Okkar homeworlds and Aethon, adding even more secrets throughout Cluster 34. These new star systems will be packed with new enemies, weapons, and gear to discover.
The scars of the Okkar-Colonial War run deep in Cluster 34. The Dreadnought Minokawa was hijacked while enroute for decommissioning—a warship this mighty can turn the tides of power towards whoever holds it. Track and defeat this titanic threat, but be prepared for the biggest battles in the EVERSPACE series so far. Test your skills and ship loadout in gigantic, multi-stage boss fights designed to push pilots to their limits.
“Our first story DLC,Titans, gives space pilots a small taste of what’s to come. We’re exploring entirely new scales of possibility for our breakout space shooter RPG with the inclusion of massive encounters like Dreadnought and Leviathan that will echo forward into the future of the EVERSPACE series,” said ROCKFISH Games CEO and co-founder Michael Schade. “The team and I are excited to continue pushing the boundaries of possibility in our award-winning game world as we build our next, substantially larger expansion.”
The ROCKFISH Games team also released an update for EVERSPACE 2, bringing AMD FSR 3.1.0 to EVERSPACE 2 as well as a migration to Unreal Engine 5.4, and optimizations to performance for PC and consoles. Find the full list of patch notes on Steam and the EVERSPACE website.

Arrow Video is excited to announce the February 2025 lineup of their subscription-based ARROW platform, available to subscribers in the US, Canada, the UK and Ireland. Enjoy a selection of new titles, from carefully cultivated curations to shorts by new talent. For serious enthusiasts, ARROW offers deep dives into the tastes of filmmakers that changed the way we see the genre.
In a recent profile, the New York Times praised ARROW and noted, “Viewers with a fondness for the esoteric will be hard-pressed to find more quality bang for their streaming buck.”
The February 2025 lineup leads with A Certain Killer and A Killer’s Key, a pair of classic 1960s Japanese assassin films. Directed by prolific Japanese director Kazuo Mori (Zatoichi at Large), both were made in 1967, and star Raizô Ichikawa (Conflagration) as a former soldier who becomes a hitman for a yakuza gang. Exclusive to ARROW is the new slasher film Killer Graduation, previously released as Departing Seniors in the US.
The Seasons include Love Sucks, a selection of vampire vixens for Valentine’s Day and Jenn Wexler Selects, a look at the films that inspired the director of The Sacrifice Game and The Ranger.
ARROW’s February calendar kicks off February 7 with a quartet of titles exclusively for subscribers in the United States. Spanning decades and originating around the globe, there’s something for everyone.
Blight (US): One year ago, Logan mysteriously disappears while on a camping trip. Her welcome home party is thrown into chaos with a series of mysterious earthquakes and power outages.
Sea Fog (US): Written and produced by Bong Joon-ho (PARASITE, SNOWPIERCER, THE HOST), Sea Fog is a maritime thriller that captures the essence of why he is considered one of the most talented filmmakers working today. Upon learning that his decaying fishing trawler, the Junjin, is about to be sold, Captain Kang looks to make one final score by smuggling illegal immigrants from China to South Korea. After arriving at the agreed pickup point, a violent storm forces the Junjin to stall in open waters. As tension and unrest spread, Kang and his five-man crew find themselves pitted against their desperate passengers – all while an ominous fog envelops the ship and everyone onboard.
Wolves, Pigs, Men (US): “Three brothers find themselves pitted against each other as rivals in the Yakuza underworld. Jiro robs stolen loot from his younger brother, Sabu, and his gang. When their eldest brother, Kuroki, learns of this, he makes his own plans to conspire against both of them, resulting in a treacherous nightmare of unbridled violence.
Combining elements of French New Wave and film noir, this “”ferocious, dynamic yakuza thriller”” (Los Angeles Times) established Kinji Fukasaku (Battles Without Honor and Humanity, Violent Panic: The Big Crash) as a master of Japanese genre cinema.”
The Reflecting Skin (US): An instant cult classic when it premiered to sold out screenings at Cannes in 1990, The Reflecting Skin is a darkly humorous, nightmarish vision of the American dream. Growing up in the 1950s in small-town Idaho, 8-year-old Seth and his friends play a prank on the town recluse, a mysterious English widow named Dolphin Blue (Tony winner Lindsay Duncan). After his father tells him stories of vampires, Seth becomes convinced Dolphin is a vampire, stealing the souls of his neighborhood friends one by one. When his older brother Cameron (Oscar nominee Viggo Mortensen in one of his first starring roles), returns home from military service in the Pacific and takes a liking to Dolphin, Seth feels it’s up to him to save Cameron from his friends’ fate. With stunning visuals recalling Edward Hopper paintings and its surreal blend of horror and humor, The Reflecting Skin is a “stunningly beautiful…Gothic masterpiece” (The Guardian)!”
Also on February 7, do your best to survive until summer in a new ARROW exclusive title: Killer Graduation (UK/IRE/US/CAN, released in the US as Departing Seniors).
Graduation is a killer. When his recent clash with his bullies sends high schooler student Javier (Ignacio Diaz-Silverio, Primo) to the hospital, he wakes up feeling… different. Javier is now plagued by psychic visions – but it’s perfect timing as there’s a masked killer on the loose.
With the help of his best friend Bianca (Ireon Roch, Perpetrator), the teens decide to take matters into their own hands and attempt to unravel the mystery of this deranged mask killer before the body count rises and the killer strikes again.
Kazuo Mori strikes twice on February 10 with a double bill of Japanese crime!
A Certain Killer (UK/IRE/US/CAN): Shiozaki’s low-profile existence as a chef at a local sushi restaurant serves as a front for his true job as a professional assassin whose modus operandi is poisoned needles. He’s approached by Maeda, a low-ranking member of a local yakuza group, to take out a rival gang boss. But the sudden arrival into his life of a spirited young woman, Keiko (Yumiko Nogawa, Gate of Flesh), has dramatic ramifications on his relationship with his new employer.
A Killer’s Key (UK/IRE/US/CAN): Ichikawa’s lone wolf assassin is back in A Killer’s Key, this time masquerading as a traditional dance instructor named Nitta who is called in to avert a potential financial scandal that threatens to engulf a powerful yakuza group with ties to powerful figures in the political establishment.
On February 14, subscribers might expect candy and flowers from ARROW. Instead, they’ll get a bite in the neck, and maybe a kiss, with LOVE SUCKS, a collection of vampiric Valentine’s treats.
Titles Include: Vamp, A Taste of Blood, Vampire Clay.
Also available on February 14:
Mockingbird Don’t Sing (US): Based on the actual events of one of the most horrific cases of child abuse ever to be documented, this haunting drama tells the tale of a young girl who was locked in a room for over 12 years.
The Invitation (UK/IRE/US/CAN): In this taut psychological thriller by Karyn Kusama (Girlfight, Jennifer’s Body), the tension is palpable when Will (Logan Marshall-Green, Upgrade) shows up to his ex-wife Eden and new husband David’s dinner party. The pair’s tragic past haunts an equally spooky present: Amid Eden’s suspicious behavior and her mysterious house guests, Will becomes convinced that his invitation was extended with a hidden agenda.
All About Lily Chou-Chou (US): For kids around the world, music is often the only salvation when the pain and anxiety of teenage life becomes too much to bear. Yuichi (Hayato Ichihara) is in the 8th grade and he worships Lily Chou-Chou, a Bjork-like chanteuse whose epic music is lush and transcendent. Yuichi only lives for Lily Chou-Chou’s big Tokyo concert, where the lies and violence can be washed away by the presence of his goddess and her powerful music. But fate has yet another obstacle in store for Lily’s devoted fan.
Red Peony Gambler (US): Wandering female gambler Oryu the Red Peony (Junko Fuji), so known for the tattoo on her shoulder, rambles into town searching for her father’s killer with a wallet left at the crime scene as her only clue. At a card game she meets a kindred spirit, the noble and handsome yakuza Katagiri (Ken Takakura), when they team up to foil a cheating player. As their paths continue to cross she befriends a gang boss and other sundry denizens of the underworld who all join forces to guide her on a blood-soaked quest for vengeance. With its fantastic tropes and charismatic stars this inaugural entry in the Red Peony Gambler series proved an influential watershed of the “chivalrous gangster” genre and was so popular that it spawned multiple sequels.
On February 21: Jenn Wexler Selects (UK/US/CA/IRE).
Jenn Wexler, the writer/director of the SXSW-nominated punk slasher The Ranger and boarding school horror The Sacrifice Game (Fantasia Film Festival Audience Award Winner) picks films from the ARROW catalogue that have nestled their way into her dark little heart and refused to let go.
“You know how there are some movies that worm their way into your brain, stick with you, and pull you back again and again? It could be because of an amazing image, a creepy concept, an incredible kill, a breathtaking performance, or a certain something you just can’t find the words for but you know after viewing it that it’s changed the very core of your being. My ARROW picks span genres, countries, decades – some of them are even by friends I’ve gotten to know and love on the film festival circuit. But they all have one thing in common: Each has nestled its way into my dark little heart and refused to let go. I hope you enjoy them.’’
Titles Include: Noroi: The Curse, The Deeper You Dig, The Addiction.

Kevin and his friends are now in college, and their Professor introduces them to McCreedy, who warns them that it is still possible to be attacked by Hobgoblins. Despite McCreedy’s warning, Kevin and his friends re-encounter the Hobgoblins and must fight against them and their own greatest fears, in order to save their lives.
Ice Cream Man (UK/IRE/US/CAN): Poor Gregory. After being released from the Wishing Well Sanatorium, all he wants to do is make the children happy. So Gregory reopens the old ice cream factory, and all the unappreciative brats are reprocessed into the flavor of the day.

Caverna (UK/IRE/US/CAN): A cyclops strangles a man and chases a princess through a forest. In a progressive theater workshop outside of Florence, students Giorgia and Lorenzo act out their dreams and childhood traumas, as teacher Alba pushes them to confront their inner myth.

Gaijin Entertainment is thrilled that Aces of Thunder, the highly anticipated VR flight combat simulation game, will feature meticulously recreated aircraft from World War I and the already announced World War II-era warbirds. Iconic fighters like the Fokker Dr.I, famously flown by the Red Baron himself, or the SPAD S.XIII, the favorite aircraft of René Fonck, Allies’ most decorated ace, will have authentically detailed cockpits, historically accurate weaponry, and realistic flight models, delivering an unparalleled and immersive gameplay experience.
Step into the boots of pioneering aviators and experience the dawn of aerial warfare. Aces of Thunder invites players to relive the epic dogfights between the Entente Powers and Central Powers. Every maneuver in the sky channels the raw intensity of history; every takeoff fills the air with the exhilarating breeze of freedom under canvas wings. These wooden and fabric aircraft, with their open cockpits and mechanical instrumentation, showcase early aviation’s craftsmanship and daring innovation.

Unlike their WWII counterparts, World War I aircraft in Aces of Thunder feature fuselage-mounted machine guns, delivering a raw and direct combat experience.

Today, KOEI TECMO America and Team NINJA announced plans to bring their highly-acclaimed open-world action RPG, Rise of the Ronin, to Windows PC via Steam® March 10, 2025. Originally released for PlayStation®5, the epic Bakumatsu era tale takes players on a historic journey where a masterless warrior, known as a Ronin, must fight to forge their own destiny through the chaos of war and political unrest. The upcoming Steam version will support various PC features, including ultra-wide monitor compatibility, 8K resolution, 120fps, 3D audio, and more!

Throughout the experience, players will be able to customize weapons and styles to their liking in order to engage in the deep, accessible combat system.

Development studio Mehuman Games and Publisher Toplitz Productions are pleased to reveal the updated look and new name for their horror themed story-driven sandbox action adventure, formerly known as Vampire Dynasty.
Together with the new name Vampires: Bloodlord Rising, developer Mehuman Games reveals an updated look at the game’s visuals, upgraded character design and other enhancements that have gone into the creative process of bringing the game’s characters to life within the murky and mysterious world of Sangavia.
“The deeper we went into the development, the more it became clear to us, that the content with its story focus and the strong implementation of action-adventure elements doesn’t cater to the expectations neither players nor ourselves have of a Dynasty game”, comments Robin Gibbels, Head of Producing at Toplitz Productions. “While we remain committed to the quality of the content and the gamedesign and didn’t change any of these elements, with the new name it is clear that these vampires are not standing on anybody’s shoulders and will fight for their rightful place in the open world of Sangavia.”
The progress the game made in all areas since its last public showing is mostly noticeable with the updated look of Dragos, the game’s main vampire protagonist who gets a more virile and haunting appearance, including a complete overhaul to his attire. Gone are the long flowing locks and beard, now replaced with a more chiseled clean cut design to show off his fearsome features.
Vampires: Bloodlord Rising has in recent months made visual improvements to various materials and textures including the building elements that players will utilize to build their own custom Vampire castle. An improved lighting system to the entire game has been introduced along with a totally overhauled onscreen UI system. Level appearance has also undergone visual improvements including even the smaller details such as the appearance of grass, water and even fog behavior, all benefiting from upgraded visuals.
Gameplay elements have also been expanded in Vampires: Bloodlord Rising, with a particular focus on managing subjects. From now on, the player will be able to romance transformed vampires, send them to hunt, and even perform powerful rituals!
The choice of being good or evil is a path players will need to decide, since this path shapes character development, even influencing how Dragos’ facial features evolve. Ultimately, they’ll decide who will fall prey to his vampire bite, guided by the gossip and secrets they uncover.
Vampires: Bloodlord Rising will be released into Early Access in 2025. Developer Mehuman Games will be revealing more of the game’s updates in further devlogs and insights it will share across Steam in the months ahead.
Creo God Simulator, the resource management city-builder set in the cozy and colorful voxel world of Creo is out now on PC via Steam.

But be careful, since creating too much fear can spawn the treacherous creatures of soul corruption at night, who seek nothing more than to consume any trace of happiness and faith by any means necessary. With a variety of buildings and technologies to utilize, a highly customizable free-form building system, and a unique story that drives the myriad goals and challenges players will encounter, Creo God Simulator is sure to keep gods on their toes for playthroughs to come.
Indie publisher DreadXP has welcomed another upcoming horror hit into their catalog, collaborating in a publishing partnership with developer Dark Machine Games to help bring the highly anticipated first-person speed climbing game, White Knuckle to the hands of horror fans everywhere. Set within a vast, decaying underground megastructure, White Knuckle combines pulse-pounding action, intricate momentum-based movement mechanics, and survival horror to create a unique gaming experience to keep players on their toes… or fingertips.
Thrust into the role of a lone climber, players must attempt to ascend SUB-STRUCTURE 17, an enormous, crumbling complex buried deep underground. With ten thousand meters of concrete and decay above and an encroaching ooze below, every climb is a race against time. Navigate perilous environments, using a blend of precision movement, sharp reflexes, and resource management to scale deteriorating walls, leap across perilous gaps, dodge traps, and avoid the deadly forces lurking in the shadows.
While speed is key to survival, players must also manage a limited inventory of tools and resources to avoid becoming encumbered and plummeting into eternity. Failure to quickly retrieve key items from your bag could result in a deadly fall, making resource management and quick thinking just as important as skillful climbing. The higher players ascend in the structure, the more dangerous the obstacles become, with each new region offering unique threats and challenges.
While you may be a lone climber, you are certainly not alone. Strange, malevolent denizens haunt the walls of SUB-STRUCTURE 17 and the horror intensifies as the environment itself becomes more hostile, forcing players to constantly adapt their strategies to survive. From the dry, dusty Silos to the putrid sewers of the Pipeworks and the haunted piers of Habitation, each area presents a distinct set of trials and enemies, all contributing to a sense of ever-growing tension. Run, jump, and climb to survive… or slip and face your doom. Every leap could be the last and it’s a long way down…
