    Strange Scaffold announces Gods With Badges, a narrative tactics game launching on Steam in 2027

    Strange Scaffold announced Gods With Badges, a narrative tactics game, during the Triple-I Initiative showcase on 8th October, with a planned 2027 release on Steam for PC. Players take the role of Harrow McClellan, a disgraced police officer patrolling the dystopian city of Scarhelm, where dialogue choices, arrests and uses of force shape her relationships with fellow officers, the public and institutions. Escalations shift the game into isometric turn-based combat, and players can temporarily disable Harrow's body camera to unlock new tactical and dialogue options at the cost of the public record. The project builds on Hard Justice, an unrealised game from strategy studio Artificer, and is part of Strange Scaffold's Project Share initiative.

    Jianxia World 4: Infinite sets October 15 open beta, studio posts letter after producer's departure

    Xishanju's Jianxia World 4: Infinite is set for a full-platform open beta on October 15, billed as the final entry in the Jianxia World mobile series with a stated plan to run for 20 years starting in 2026. On October 9 the team published a long letter answering questions about monetization and design, describing the game as a pure MMO built on free trading, open-world PvP and large-scale guild GvG, with tighter control of stat gaps than games that claim not to sell stats. After the departure of key figure Guo Weiwei and continued pressure on the company's game business, the announcement sparked a trust crisis in the player community, prompting two letters and closed comment sections.
