"Steam's review queue is clogged up by AI slop": Salacious Fire Emblem-ish Food Devils gets a delay because its devs think Valve is inundated with genAI games

You might have seen that for today's grub, Edwin decided to in part feed The Maw with Food Devils, an incredibly salacious, foodie take on Fire Emblem, as it was meant to release today. The only problem is, it's not actually out yet. That might prompt you to call Edwin a rotten liar and march up to his castle at the top of the hill on a dark and stormy night with pitchforks and torches, but I beseech you to wait, because it's actually Steam's fault. And potentially, it's the fault of all those

The Citadel Project is a Thief-inspired dark fantasy, survival-horror lite stealth-em-up with some lovely shadows set in a medieval megastructure

You know, given the whole stealthy element of Thief-like immersive sims, I'm surprised there haven't been more of them with horror elements. There's Gloomwood, sure, but it's not as common as I'd like. That in turn then makes me curious about The Citadel Project, an immersive sim with some survival-horror elements set in a nasty, parasite-infected dark fantasy world, all apparently made by just one person.

Silica, an FPS and RTS hybrid that mixes a smidge of Dune and Helldivers together, has left early access and entered 1.0

The concept of fusing an RTS and an FPS always sounds like a fun one, and since 2023 Martin Melichárek has been trying to make a new take on the combination under the watchful eye of DayZ devs Bohemia Interactive through Silica. Today marks the day that Silica leaves early access and enters 1.0, fully fleshing out its hybrid and mish mash of Dune's Arrakis and Helldivers' Terminids. Read more

Frostpunk 2's The Surge DLC keeps the wintery apocalypse and adds in faction-clash-inducing electricity and sets a seasonally appropriate December release date

For the time being, the world of Frostpunk remains a hypothetical, even if it's one that seems just that little bit more likely than I'd like it to be given who's in charge of the world. But at the very least, there are pockets of hope to be found in Frostpunk 2, namely with its newly revealed next bit of DLC, The Surge, a name that has been bequeathed to it for incredibly obvious reasons. Oh, you need me to explain them? Fiiiiine. Read more

Venom-toothed Noxious Terminids are soon to infest Helldivers 2, and it's your noble job to sterilise the galaxy for Super Earth

Helldivers 2 isn't slowing down any time soon, and according to Edwin's recent interview with Arrowhead CCO Johan Pilestedt, it'll continue to be Arrowhead's main priority for the future. As if Helldivers 2 wasn't full of enough horrors for our brave Super Earth Helldivers to shoot at for the betterment of galactic democracy, its next update is due to add an entirely new Terminid subspecies, the Noxious Terminids.

Mobile Suit Gundam Battle Operation 3 has been announced, marking another attempt at a free-to-play team game after Gundam Evolution's unfortunate fate

Bandai Namco have released the initial announcement trailer for Mobile Suit Gundam Battle Operation 3, a free-to-play team action game and a sequel to 2018's Battle Operation 2. The trailer is very, very pretty, showing off Gundam units clashing in large-scale battles and infantry fighting beneath the colossal mechas' feet (kinda like Titanfall, in having both human and mecha players in the same match). I'm sadly not yet enough of a true Gundam fan to recognise many of these units on sight othe

The Elder Scrolls 6: Sentinel teaser all but confirms Hammerfell setting and means we can finally stop using that eight year old header image with the hills

Praise Talos and whatever other Elder Scrolls deities you might worship. We here at RPS and in the wider gaming press finally have new material to use when hunting for images to symbolise The Elder Scrolls 6. No more will we be limited to that shot of some hills from the 2018 teaser, because Bethesda have shown off an elder scroll covered in sand while revealing the new game's subtitle and all but locking in a setting. As a recent report from The Verge claimed, it's called The Elder Scrolls 6:
