    Cloud Imperium Games released a new cinematic trailer for Squadron 42, the single-player spinoff of Star Citizen, and opened Steam wishlists alongside a full cast reveal.

The trailer showed first-person sections, platforming and puzzles, ship customization, a hacking mini-game and narrative choices; CIG delayed the game to Q2 2027 in August to avoid GTA 6's attention.

    WoW: Forever, by casting off modern convenience, has horseshoed back around to being casual friendly again

    A PC Gamer MMO column argues that World of Warcraft: Forever, by casting off modern conveniences, has become casual friendly again. The author, who has a 9-5 job and doesn't consider himself a hardcore WoW player, says leveling in Forever is chill, built around 40-minute adventures that don't change if you come back a month later. By contrast, retail's seasonal structure demands intense play and resets much of your progress at season's end, often pushing casual players away.

    Giving Masterpieces Memory and Life: TGS2026 Interview with the Producer of The Lost Art Museum

    The Lost Art Museum -Eirei Shūshūroku-, an adventure game published by Happynet, offered a prologue demo at TGS2026 in which players take the role of Vince, who wanders into a museum world and restores the lost memories of "Eirei" born from famous paintings. Producer and planning lead Honoka Ohara said the game's theme is passing down memory through paintings, aiming to bring more people closer to art rather than simply teaching art history. Each chapter focuses on one Eirei, while the reason they lost their memories and whether Vince can return to his own world form an overarching mystery.

    How the level pack boom of early FPS games ended in a lawsuit that changed copyright forever

    In the 1990s, early first-person shooters like Duke Nukem 3D and Quake spawned boxed level packs sold on store shelves, occupying an ambiguous space between expansions and mods. Third-party studios like Sunstorm Interactive produced well-regarded packs such as Duke Caribbean and Duke It Out in DC, while others like Micro Star Software's Nuke It series were unauthorized shovelware. This unregulated frontier ultimately ended in a lawsuit that changed copyright forever.

    Arc Raiders could eventually split into PvE and PvP, executive producer says

    Arc Raiders executive producer Aleksander Grøndal said splitting the game into PvE and PvP modes is "possible", since the community is already divided along those lines. Embark will run a limited PvE test from 13th to 20th October that toggles opt-in PvE matchmaking where players cannot damage each other, with solos, duos and trios matched into the same sessions and Night Raids and the upcoming Frigate excluded. An Embark blog post said the game was originally conceived seven years ago as a raid-based PvE co-op game with looting, and player data shows 37 percent friendly co-op players, 34 percent pure PvP players and 27 percent who move between both, while 51 percent of surveyed players expressed interest in a dedicated PvE option.
