⚡️South of Midnight on PS5 unexpectedly SHOT UP the Metacritic charts, the PlayStation version currently sits at 80.
The Compulsion Games port to PS5 and Nintendo Switch 2 launched on 31 March 2026, sparking renewed attention; the original on Xbox Series X/S and PC (released 8 April 2025) holds 77 and 75, despite no major technical differences.
⚡ Update: Arena Breakout: Infinite kicked off its fifth season "Distortion", the battlefield now crawls with anomalies and supernatural flair
Devs reworked core systems and added the Distorted Valley, a reality‑bending map with new powers (shields, temporary invulnerability, ally‑heal), dynamic events like a mystic bell and shrinking evac points, plus three new modes: Boss Rally, Masters' Tournament, Wastes. Seasonal tasks, a reward track and fresh weapons (including T192, FAMAS and smoke grenades) round out one of the boldest updates yet. INSANE.
Crimson Desert LANDED high in March's PS Store downloads chart, a top spot for the buzzy title despite mixed player reception 🤨
Sony published its usual monthly downloads chart, and because studio divisions publish separately the lists come as two columns (NA / EU). Notable pairings include MLB The Show 26 / Crimson Desert, Crimson Desert / EA SPORTS FC 26, Resident Evil Requiem and Grand Theft Auto V; the full NA/EU breakdown was released by Sony.
Mundfish revealed the final DLC for Atomic Heart, «Blood on Crystal», set to drop on April 16. The studio posted an animated poster that fired up fans: Major P-3 and Twin are shown gearing up to clash with HRAZ and the forces of Facility 3826.
The studio stresses there will be no delays, this is the FINAL chapter of the first game, promising big battles, key answers and a proper, conclusive ending ⚡️
⚡️Starfield lands on PlayStation 5 on April 7, 2026, Bethesda's trailer walks through how the port exploits the DualSense controller feature-by-feature. Pretty NUTS for controller fans.
Adaptive triggers give weapon resistance; the light bar displays health; the speaker plays voiced logs; the touchpad is a quick-access menu; and there are «Quality» and «Performance» modes (up to 60 FPS).
👀 Dataminers digging through Counter-Strike 2 files found the characters folder renamed to Agents, a clear hint an agent expansion might be in the works.
They say the change fits the timing of the Animgraph2 integration, which would make sense for agent additions. On the flip side, the same file analysis suggests models from the Запретная зона mode and the heavy armor for both Terrorists and CTs are unlikely to make it into the current build.
☠️ State of Decay 3 is ALIVE, the devs are inviting players to a closed alpha.
Undead Labs says production isn't finished, but a series of closed alphas kicks off next month; registration is already open on the official site. The alpha promises 4-player co-op, new base-building and resource-management strategies, and bloody fights with zombies. Platforms: PC (Steam, Microsoft Store) and Xbox Series, with Russian text localization. No release date yet.
🛠️ Nova Roma lands a stability patch 0.7.1866 in early access, another round of fixes and QoL. BETA
UI got some love: a tool to pinpoint citizen health issues, better UI scaling across screens, revamped tooltips and handy management tweaks. Economy & logistics got tuned, some project costs cut, wagons and ships behave smarter, and farm villas now distribute residents more reliably. AI pathing and task assignment improved, the fatigue system is being iterated, and a pile of bugfixes landed (map gen, resources, stuck units). Devs say they're actively using player saves to hunt down issues.
🚗 R.E.P.O. is still a coop staple, getting a big Cosmetics Update plus a twist on King of the Losers: arena fights give way to full-on races.
Expect track sprints, obstacle dodging and fights for pole position, you'll be testing driving skills as much as combat. Deep CUSTOMS let you tweak colours and mix visual parts so players can craft unique looks. No release date yet; the update is in active development.
⚡️Xenonauts 2 FINALLY left Early Access, after almost 3 years and 7 major updates it reached v1.0.

PC-only (Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store) with Russian text; Steam rating, 80% Very Positive.
