Publisher Good Shepherd Entertainment (Dicefolk, Monster Train) and developer Violet Saint today announced Moroi, a dark fantasy hack-and-slash adventure inspired by Romanian folklore, heavy metal and the brilliant works of David Lynch, will beckon you into a peculiar, puzzling world steeped in dark comedy and unsettling horror when it launches on PC in Early 2025 (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2518410/Moroi/).
Indulge in eternal torment with Moroi’s reveal trailer:
Descend into the shadow-choked depths of Moroi’s Cosmic Engine, a maddening labyrinth of twisting corridors and forgotten horrors. Plagued by amnesia, your name, past and sins are beyond memory, shrouded in darkness. As you claw your way through this realm of torment, you face grotesque inhabitants in a land where dark-as-night humor is the only silver lining. Cling to your sanity in an otherwise deteriorating existence styled as grimdark fantasy, a subgenre of fiction distinguished by bleak, dystopian settings and scenarios.
Wage war against Moroi’s battalions of mages, guards and the cursed undead while wielding a gruesome arsenal of unorthodox weaponry. Tear through the flesh of your foes with the jagged teeth of a hellish duck, or unleash a storm of projectiles with the aid of a flying brain. Around every corner lies an unexpected discovery or new instrument of death.
The labyrinth’s horrors extend beyond the bloody thrill of combat, conjuring otherworldly environments, eccentric acquaintances and puzzles calling for unconventional approaches. Moroi’s trials forgo mere riddles and sliding blocks; embrace macabre solutions like drinking blood, forcing regurgitation or scavenging through innards to forge deeper into the Cosmic Engine. Each puzzle has its own clever solution, often awarding triumph in exchange for suffering. Engage with the Cosmic’s bizarre residents to uncover the secrets of their twisted world, savoring moments of dark humor to lighten the unrelenting dread.
Escape is your only hope, the key to uncovering the grim truths that bind you. But tread carefully – the choices you make will carve your path toward one of multiple endings, shaping a fate that may prove more harrowing than the Cosmic Engine itself.
Stay up to date on the macabre reality of Moroi by following Good Shepherd Entertainment on Bluesky @GoodShepherd.Games.

At less than 249g1, this compact drone features foldable full-coverage propeller guards1, ensuring ultra-safe and reliable flying. Photographers can capture impressive 48MP photos and 4K videos with the drone’s 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor with one tap of a button. Being fully equipped with comprehensive protection at all times, even beginner pilots can confidently navigate the skies with DJI Flip.
“Building on the success of our consumer camera drones, we are introducing DJI Flip to combine the simplicity of the DJI Neo with the stunning photo capabilities of the DJI Mini to make both aerial photography and close-up portraits accessible for everyone,” said Ferdinand Wolf, Product Experience Director at DJI. “DJI Flip combines creative tools like AI subject tracking1 and intelligent shooting modes1 with safety features like our latest foldable propeller guards and automatic braking, making it easier than ever for people to capture stunning aerial footage no matter their level of photography or drone expertise.”
Ultra Safe and Reliable Flights Intelligent One-Tap Aerial Photography
DJI Flip makes flying safe and reliable thanks to its foldable, full-coverage guard that wraps the propellers to avoid injury or damage to the drone. Made of lightweight and strong carbon fiber string, the guard’s support structure is only 1/60 the weight of guards made with traditional polycarbonate material while maintaining the same stiffness and durability to ensure safe flights.
Intelligent One-Tap Aerial Photography
DJI Flip makes flying simple, requiring no special training in most countries and regions. This palm-sized drone is lightweight and compact, making it an ideal travel companion for capturing any adventure. Whether hiking through forests or climbing steep peaks, DJI Flip makes flying simple. With one tap of the mode button, photographers can select from six intelligent shooting modes to capture impressive footage. AI Subject Tracking1 can also be enabled to keep a subject in the frame. Six intelligent shooting modes include Dronie, Circle, Rocket, Spotlight, Helix, and Boomerang.
Strong Camera with Smart Enhancements
DJI Flip can capture high-dynamic 48MP photos with more highlight and shadow details. The camera is powered by a 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor featuring Dual Native ISO Fusion, f/1.7 aperture, and 2.4μm 4-in-1 pixels. It can also capture photos with up to 4x zoom. Intricate details can be preserved with next-gen SmartPhoto1, which combines HDR imaging, scene recognition, and more for images that pop.
DJI Flip records HDR video at 4K resolution and 60 frames per second, promising footage with true-to-life quality. It also supports slow-motion recording at 4K/100fps and 10-bit D-Log M color mode. A 4:3-aspect-ratio CMOS sensor provides enough space for vertical crops while maintaining a 2.7k resolution, optimized for smartphone viewing and social media without any cropping needed.
DJI’s intelligent shooting features easily produce professional-grade work:
MasterShots: Allows DJI Flip to automatically perform diverse camera movements, shooting multiple clips and editing them with music, cuts, and effects for fast and simplified cinematic footage.
Hyperlapse: Select from four options, including Free, Circle, Course Lock, and Waypoint to capture timelapse footage at up to 4K horizontally or 2.7K vertically.
FocusTrack: Find creative ways to follow your subject with FocusTrack. The suite includes ActiveTrack 4.0, Spotlight 2.0, and Point of Interest 3.0, three powerful storytelling tools.

Automatic Braking1: DJI Flip’s 3D Infrared Sensing System supports automatic braking for enhanced safety, even at night.
Next Level Video Transmission: When paired with the DJI RC-N3 or RC 2 remote controller, DJI O4 video transmission supports up to 13 km1 of 1080p/60fps video transmission and has excellent anti-interference capabilities, allowing you to explore vast landscapes with clarity.
Fast Charging and Data Transfers1: The DJI Flip Parallel Charging Hub charges two batteries simultaneously1, significantly reducing charging time. With the DJI Fly app, footage can be transferred at speeds up to 30MB/s.
Fly With or Without Remote Controller: The DJI Flip can be operated with the DJI RC-N3 or RC 2 remote controllers. It can also operate with the DJI Fly app or Voice Control1 for hands-free flying. When connected to your phone, it can capture audio and intelligently reduce noise, automatically filtering out propeller noise.
Data Protection: Local Data Mode acts like “airplane mode” on the phone by completely disconnecting the DJI Flip from the internet, ensuring all data stays only in the drone.

Wargaming, the publisher and developer of the leading naval battle MMO World of Warships, is starting the New Year with a bang. Kicking off the first update of 2025 is a special version of Operations, featuring a brand-new, lethal enemy called Flagships. This update also introduces Early Access to Dutch Cruisers which is accompanied by a dedicated Event Pass, three chapters covering the epic Bjorn’s Ballad Adventure with a Commander up for grabs, and even more Combat Missions packed with rewards to start the year off in style.
On January 9 until February 6, high-tier ship Operations–which will run alongside standard Operations as a separate battle type–are sailing into the game, offering new challenges to players brave enough to tackle them. These special Operations feature a new deadly enemy known as flagships, which act as squadron leaders for their fleet and have significantly more hit points than standard vessels to withstand tactical efforts.
There will be three flagships on the high seas, each with various skills and abilities that players will have to outmaneuver to overcome the odds. The Incendiary Specialist makes its allies more dangerous by improving their chances of starting fires, whilst also being vulnerable to fires itself. Torpedo Master increases the torpedo reload speed for allies, however is susceptible to torpedo damage in return. Finally, Iron Fist delivers a speed buff to allies, while also arming them with special shells that have enhanced armour penetration. However, once Iron Fist is destroyed, it will damage all nearby vessels.
The first three weeks of the update will each see one of the three flagships scouring the waters for prey before the fourth week brings all three together for the ultimate challenge.
Dutch Cruisers Drop Anchor in Early Access
Dutch cruisers also enter Early Access on January 9 until March 6, bringing vessels with 128mm guns, improved high explosive shell penetration and armour piercing shell damage, Airstrike with long-range, and Engine Boost and fast-cooling Repair Party consumables to complete the package.

A brand-new Event Pass is also available, containing Jaarsveld, along with various permanent camouflages to use across the new line of cruisers.
Battle Alongside a Legendary Sea Wolf in the Bjorn’s Ballad Adventure
A brand-new journey is on the horizon, as Bjorn’s Ballad Adventure begins on January 16 and runs until February 6, which sees players join the renowned warrior, who has slain terrifying sea monsters and sailed to the darkest corners of the earth. This new quest sends players on an epic journey across several fantasy locations and will take place across three chapters, each equipped with standard and advanced missions. Complete these action-packed chapters to gain Commander Bjorn Stormbreaker, with six skill points, as well as Forsaken Chest Containers and an exclusive discount on themed bundles.
