Signal Space Lab and Actrio Studio are proud to reveal that their multimedia sci-fi interactive VR project Human Within is out today on SteamVR, for $19.99 / £16.75 / €19.50 with a 25% discount through April 17th. This follows its launch last month on Meta Quest 2 and 3. Human Within is a one-of-a-kind VR interactive experience that explores the profound influence of AI and advanced technology on society, highlighting the potential threats if misused.

Directed by Avi Winkler and Anne Weigel, Human Within unfolds in a modern world where Nyla, a cyber engineer, and her sister Linh, are employed at Forward Industries. Together, they pioneer a groundbreaking supercomputer by harnessing the human brain’s processing power. However, when Nyla seeks to disengage from the project, both sisters are detained, compelled to continue their work amidst suspicions of their employer’s hidden motives. In a daring bid for freedom, Nyla is forced to connect the technology to Linh, and use it in the very way she feared it would be.

Human Within combines a thrilling branching storyline with video game playability. Its blend of original storytelling and gameplay features offer players a distinct interactive experience. It differentiates itself with a unique integration of technical features that includes:

  • User Involvement: Experiencing the story from Linh’s consciousness within a virtual internet space provides a unique way to observe the events taking place and have a level of participation unlike anything else.

  • Point Cloud Interactivity: Explore environments in digital recreations. These sequences serve as pace-breaking moments where users engage with the story even further, bringing a whole new degree of interactivity to the mix.

  • Choice and Consequence: At key moments in the story the events that take place are defined by the user’s choices. These moments define how events unfolded in the past and determine how it all ends in the present.

  • Style Variety: The story is told across a unique combination of three distinct visual styles: The Internet Space blending 2D film and 3D graphics, Flashback Scenes with interactive 360 degree stereo film, and Point Cloud recreations with 6DOF 3D environments.

Human Within is available with English and French audio options, with subtitles available in English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, and Italian.

M3GAN 2.0 Official Trailer Released

2025/04/03

The murderous doll who captivated pop culture in 2023 is back. And this time she’s not alone.

The original creative team behind that phenomenon—led by horror titans James Wan for Atomic Monster, Jason Blum for Blumhouse and director Gerard Johnstone—reboot an all-new wild chapter in A.I. mayhem with M3GAN 2.0.

Two years after M3GAN, a marvel of artificial intelligence, went rogue and embarked on a murderous (and impeccably choreographed) rampage and was subsequently destroyed, M3GAN’s creator Gemma (Allison Williams) has become a high-profile author and advocate for government oversight of A.I. Meanwhile, Gemma’s niece Cady (Violet McGraw), now 14, has become a teenager, rebelling against Gemma’s overprotective rules.

Unbeknownst to them, the underlying tech for M3GAN has been stolen and misused by a powerful defense contractor to create a military-grade weapon k

nown as Amelia (Ivanna Sakhno; Ahsoka, Pacific Rim: Uprising), the ultimate killer infiltration spy. But as Amelia’s self-awareness increases, she becomes decidedly less interested in taking orders from humans. Or in keeping them around.

With the future of human existence on the line, Gemma realizes that the only option is to resurrect M3GAN (Amie Donald, voiced by Jenna Davis) and give her a few upgrades, making her faster, stronger, and more lethal. As their paths collide, the original A.I bitch is about to meet her match.

Directed by acclaimed returning filmmaker Gerard Johnstone, the film co-stars returning cast members Brian Jordan Alvarez and Jen Van Epps as Gemma’s loyal tech teammates, Cole and Tess, and new characters played by Aristotle Athari (Saturday Night Live, Hacks), Timm Sharp (Apples Never Fall, Percy Jackson and the Olympians) and Grammy winner and 11-time Emmy nominee Jemaine Clement (Avatar: The Way of Water, What We Do in the Shadows).

Produced by James Wan, Jason Blum and Allison Williams, the film is executive produced by Gerard Johnstone, Adam Hendricks, Greg Gilreath, Michael Clear, Judson Scott and Mark D. Katchur.

The first M3GAN film shattered box office records, opening to $30.4 million domestically to become the biggest opening weekend for a PG-13 horror film since A Quiet Place Part II. The film went on to gross more than $180 million worldwide.

  • Genre: Action/Horror/Comedy . . . M3GAN
  • Cast: Allison Williams, Violet McGraw, Brian Jordan Alvarez, Jen Van Epps, Amie Donald, Jenna Davis, Ivanna Sakhno, Aristotle Athari, Timm Sharp, Jemaine Clement

White Knuckle – Early Access Release Date Trailer

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

Five months after the reveal of White Knuckle at the 2024 Indie Horror Showcase, Dark Machine Games and DreadXP are ready to share that the first-person speed-climbing horror roguelite will be coming to Steam Early Access on April 17th! At the start of Early Access, players can explore the first three regions of SUB-STRUCTURE 17 as they climb to escape the horrors of the decrepit underground megacomplex in a variety of gameplay modes.

Trapped in the decaying depths of SUB-STRUCTURE 17, you take on the role of a lone climber attempting to ascend the subterranean compound using a combination of precise movement, quick reflexes, and resource management. Climb deteriorating walls, jump over dangerous gaps, dodge lethal traps, and avoid the malevolent creatures lurking in the shadows as an encroaching mass rises below you, ready to consume you should you lose your grip. As you climb, you’ll find various tools to aid your ascent, but carrying too much will leave you encumbered and that much more likely to fall. Pulling tools from your inventory will also require quick thinking as you’ll need the hands you’re climbing with to grab the items in your bag, and spending too long fumbling with them will surely lead to a deadly drop.

As you ascend SUB-STRUCTURE 17 you’ll encounter new and more dangerous environments, each with unique challenges and increasingly hostile enemies to face. Travel through the deep dry storage of the Silos, the putrid sewers of the Pipeworks, and the haunted piers of Habitation as you make your way up ten thousand meters of crumbling concrete in an attempt to reach freedom.

While falling is ill-advised, it’s also inevitable. Choose from unlockable augmentations during runs to improve a variety of traits to aid your ascent. Increasing stats like jump height, climb speed, and stamina will help your chances of escaping the depths of SUB-STRUCTURE 17.

White Knuckle launches into Steam Early Access on April 17th and to prepare for the upcoming launch, players can hone their climbing skills in the highly-acclaimed demo available on Steam.
