The announcement confirms the addition of three new crew members, hinting at expanded crew dynamics and new mission setups. More details and gameplay clips expected soon.

⚡️Trailer for Gallipoli from BlackMill Games revealed gameplay and confirmed a release date, the team behind Verdun and Isonzo is finally leaving Europe.

The project brings the franchise's trademark realism of positional warfare to the harsh Middle Eastern front of the early 20th century: the Dardanelles, clashes in Mesopotamia, authentic amphibious landings, desert fights, historically accurate uniforms and weapons, massive online battles with bot support and crossplay. BRUTAL 💥

⚡️ DYSPLACED just got a full local COOP, plug a second pad or use a mouse+keyboard combo and team up to explore. The mode is polished for two players; 3-4 player support is still shaky and will be improved.

The patch brings a bunch of QoL: inventory and chest sort buttons, smarter item transfer that respects pinned slots, and overhauled gamepad controls. Major stamina changes: sprinting during combat no longer blocks regeneration, attacks at zero stamina execute at full speed but deal reduced damage. There's also an experimental secondary bow attack that consumes stamina for extra damage, devs say balance will be tuned based on player feedback. 🎮

🎆 Once Human, ALMOST an MMO: the new update drops the limited Starfire Festival with rewards and time-only content, a reworked RaidZone, early playtest for Hyper Brawl, the Lightforge Loot Crate Celestial Reverie and a stack of bugfixes.

Servers are back online, jump in to test the festival and revamped RaidZone, but close your sessions beforehand so you don't get booted mid-action.

💥 Behaviour Interactive, dev of Dead by Daylight, announced layoffs, AXED are mobile developers and outsourcing teams.

🎯 Caliber gets a major rework of "Emir's Residence" in v1.4.0, GET READY for rebuilt geometry, refreshed visuals and new routes, zones and positions that make fights far less predictable.

The update adds a new PvE mission: squad Cobalt‑2 must track the Red Scorpion hiding in a heavily fortified residence with possible explosive caches; Onslaught: Reinforcement returns and the map debuts in Frontline and Hack modes. Expect tight defenses and fast decisions, capture or eliminate depending on how the raid goes.

🪖 Sudden Strike 5 is out, a new entry in the classic tactical series from Kalypso Media and Kite Games, delivering pure OLD-SCHOOL WWII strategy and deep tactical freedom.

The game offers over 300 unit types, 25 campaign missions, bridge-building, calling reinforcements and terrain-based tactics. Devs answered demo feedback with AI and performance improvements for massive battles. Two editions launch with a 10% discount.

🎨 Kiln launched on April 23, and the devs say it's just the beginning.

A rare multiplayer hybrid: creativity + team fights, players sculpt their fighters from CLAY and drop into 4v4 matches, main mode Quench across 5 maps. Progression got a boost: level cap: 15→50 with more cosmetics and customization. Early post-launch: dinosaur ornament pack, then a new map; summer brings a major update (new Quench maps, quest system, progress journal, extra modes). Photo mode and more social features are planned later, devs promise near-weekly content drops. 🏺
