A Rat’s Quest: Season 1 Scurries Onto PC

One of the most charming indie projects to come out of Mexico has finally arrived. HandyGames and The Dreamerians have officially launched A Rat’s Quest – The Way Back Home Season 1, marking the beginning of Mat the Rat’s big (well… small) adventure. This release covers the first half of his story, with Season 2 already planned for late 2026.

Season 1 kicks off in an old wine cellar where Mat lives a pretty safe, simple life — until love sends him straight into danger. His journey takes him deep into a giant’s house, introduces him to the world of Scavengers, uncovers a dark conspiracy brewing in the rat commune, and ends with a betrayal that leaves him lost and desperate to get home. It’s cozy, heartfelt, and full of tiny heroes facing huge problems.

What to Expect in Season 1

Master the Environment
Turn everyday household objects into climbing routes, shortcuts, and escape paths. Pipes become tunnels, furniture becomes platforms — the world is massive when you’re only a few inches tall.

Hybrid Gameplay
The game switches between side‑view and top‑down perspectives, giving you a real sense of squeezing through tight spaces, crawling under floorboards, and navigating walls.

A Cinematic Adventure
A Rat’s Quest leans heavily into storytelling, with hours of cutscenes, full English voice acting, and a soundtrack that feels straight out of an animated film.

More to Come in Season 2
Season 1 ends at a major turning point, setting the stage for Mat’s journey into forests, caves, swamps, and more when Season 2 arrives in 2026.

Available Now

A Rat’s Quest – The Way Back Home Season 1 is out now on Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG for $19.99 / €19.99. If you’re into cozy adventures with heart, humor, and a surprising amount of danger, Mat’s story is worth jumping into.

ALL WILL FALL Launches on Steam

tinyBuild (you might know them from Potion Craft, Graveyard Keeper, and The King is Watching) and the team at All Parts Connected just dropped their brand‑new survival city builder ALL WILL FALL on Steam — and it’s already making waves. After racking up more than 300,000 wishlists and releasing a demo that pulled in 200,000+ players with a 91% positive rating, the full game is finally here for $29.99 (with a sweet 15% launch discount).

This isn’t your typical city builder. Instead of spreading out, you’re building up — stacking structures into towering vertical settlements in a world swallowed by the ocean. You’ll take on eight official scenarios, each with its own flavor of chaos: from a wrecked tanker ship to a cult‑controlled island to a crumbling skyscraper begging for a second life.

And if you’re the kind of player who loves endless tinkering, you’re in luck. ALL WILL FALL launches with Sandbox Mode, Steam Workshop support, and a full map editor, giving you over 100 hours of strategic, physics‑driven gameplay right out of the gate. More content and modding tools are already planned for the future.

Build Humanity’s Last Hope — One Wobbly Tower at a Time

In this drowned world, the only direction left is up. Every structure you place has weight, balance, and real‑world physics to consider. Stack too aggressively and your beautiful vertical utopia might come crashing down. On top of that, you’re managing factions, keeping your people alive, and making the kind of tough calls that shape the future of your colony.

Whether you want to be a benevolent leader or a ruthless tyrant, the game lets you carve your own path — and deal with the consequences.

Players Are Already Getting Creative

The devs at All Parts Connected summed it up perfectly in their launch statement:

Players are building flying islands, recreating the Titanic, and even modding the demo because they couldn’t wait for more.

That’s the energy this game inspires — wild ideas, ambitious builds, and a community that’s ready to push the limits of what’s possible.

Key Features at a Glance

  • 3D Physics‑Based Construction
    Build upward in a world with almost no land. Stack structures, optimize production chains, and pray your tower doesn’t topple.
  • Lead Your Colony
    Manage multiple factions, each with their own quirks. Keep the peace or play favorites — it’s your city.
  • Meaningful Choices
    Rule with kindness or fear. Every decision shapes your colony’s future.
  • Explore and Expand
    Send expeditions into the ruins, unlock new scenarios, and establish fresh colonies above the waves.
  • Endless Replayability
    Sandbox Mode, Steam Workshop, and a full map editor mean infinite possibilities from day one.

Available Now

ALL WILL FALL is out now on Steam for $29.99, with a 15% launch discount. There’s also a free demo, and your demo save transfers straight into the full game.

House Flipper Goes Free for a Weekend

If you’ve been anywhere near the world of virtual renovations over the past eight years, you already know House Flipper has become the place where millions of players kicked off their home‑makeover adventures. More than 10 million people across PC and consoles have grabbed a hammer, smashed some walls, and turned disaster homes into dream spaces.

While Frozen District kept rolling out updates, patches, and DLCs, the community exploded with creativity. We’re talking over 50,000 Steam Workshop creations — custom rooms, furniture, wild ideas — many of which helped inspire new features in the game itself.

And now the team is celebrating in a big way.

House Flipper Is Free on Steam for a Limited Time

For the first weekend of April, Frozen District is opening the doors wide and letting everyone grab House Flipper for free on Steam.

Available April 3–6:

Try the House Flipper Remastered Collection Playtests

But wait — there’s more for the renovation‑obsessed.

There’s also a Q&A video from the devs that dives into what’s new, what’s changing, and what players can expect from the remastered edition.

Pricing Details for the Remastered Collection

Frozen Way also shared a handy infographic breaking down how pricing works — and the good news is that the cost depends on which DLCs you already own. The more you’ve invested in the original game, the better your deal on the remastered version.

A Quick Look at the House Flipper Universe

House Flipper has always been about creativity, chill vibes, and the satisfaction of turning something broken into something beautiful. It’s family‑friendly, easy to pick up, and surprisingly addictive.

A few fun milestones:

  • The original House Flipper sold 8.5 million+ copies across PC, Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
  • House Flipper 2 passed 1 million copies sold.
  • DLCs? Several million more.
  • House Flipper 2 introduced polished visuals, smoother mechanics, and new modes like Sandbox, Story, and Co‑Op.

The franchise keeps growing, and this free weekend plus the Remastered Collection playtests feel like the perfect way to welcome even more players into the community.

What Makes PAYDAY: Aces High Stand Out

Fast Travel Games just dropped a big one at The VR Showcase: PAYDAY: Aces High, a brand‑new, officially licensed VR co‑op heist experience set in Starbreeze Entertainment’s legendary PAYDAY universe. If you’ve ever wanted to pull off a high‑stakes job inside VR with three partners in crime, this is your moment. The game is set to launch in 2026, and you can already wishlist it on Steam and the Meta Store.

Watch the global reveal trailer: https://youtu.be/xSeznioypcY

In Aces High, you and your crew—collectively known as The Aces—get framed by corporate powerhouse Warren Jupiter. Naturally, the only reasonable response is revenge… the PAYDAY way. That means planning your loadout, gearing up with black‑market toys, and hitting everything from banks to museums to luxury penthouses. Scout the scene, pick your moment, and decide whether you’re going in quiet or going in loud enough to wake the whole city.

Fast Travel Games’ Chief Creative Officer Erik Odeldahl summed it up perfectly: PAYDAY has always let players live out their wildest Hollywood‑style heist fantasies, and now VR is taking that energy to the next level. Starbreeze CEO Adolf Kristjansson echoed the excitement, calling Aces High a true expansion of the PAYDAY universe—built from the ground up for VR, not just adapted.

What Makes PAYDAY: Aces High Stand Out

The Rush of the Score

Roll with up to three fellow Aces. Plan the job, prep your gear, and execute with precision. Every bag you haul and every alarm you dodge brings you closer to that perfect payday—or a city‑melting level of heat.

Guns, Gadgets, and Getting Even

Your arsenal grows as you do: ARs, SMGs, shotguns, pistols, grapples, sentry guns, and more. Spend your hard‑earned cash and reputation to unlock new skills and gear that push your heisting game into overdrive.

Four Aces, Four Playstyles

Pick the Ace that fits your vibe:

  • Ace of Hearts – The Mastermind: The strategist who sees every angle.
  • Ace of Clubs – The Ghost: Silent, surgical, and gone before anyone notices.
  • Ace of Diamonds – The Technician: Gadget genius and controlled chaos specialist.
  • Ace of Spades – The Enforcer: The walking battering ram who thrives when things get loud.

PAYDAY: Aces High is shaping up to be the VR heist fantasy fans have been waiting for. If you’re ready to lock, load, and live the life of a high‑caliber criminal mastermind—2026 can’t come soon enough.

A First Look at The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin’s Massive L.A. Launch Event

Netmarble went big in L.A. — and I mean really big. On March 14, the studio took over L.A. LIVE with a full‑on celebration called “50 Elizabeths in L.A.” to hype up the global launch of its new anime open‑world RPG, The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin. And yes, the name is literal: fifty Elizabeth cosplayers roaming the venue in perfect formation. It was as wild and eye‑catching as it sounds.

If you missed it, Netmarble dropped a sketch‑style highlight video on the game’s official YouTube channel so fans everywhere can soak in the atmosphere. It captures the energy of the day — the crowds, the costumes, the excitement — all of it.

The whole event was designed to boost awareness of Origin in North America and connect with local fans ahead of the global launch. The Elizabeth parade was the star of the show, inspired by the “Forest of White Dreams” scene from the original series where multiple Elizabeths appear to test Meliodas. Seeing that moment recreated in real life was a nostalgia hit for longtime fans and a perfect “wait, what’s going on here?” moment for newcomers.

Beyond the parade, visitors got plenty to do: themed photo spots, hands‑on gameplay demos, merch giveaways, and lucky draws. The celebration was also streamed live during the special launch broadcast, so players around the world could join in on the fun.

The excitement didn’t stop there. After its early access release on PlayStation 5 and Steam on March 17, The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin has been getting a warm welcome from players diving into its open‑world exploration and co‑op features. The full global launch is set for March 23, expanding the game to mobile and making it playable across all supported platforms.

If you’re new to the franchise, the game is based on the massively popular manga and anime The Seven Deadly Sins, which has sold over 55 million copies worldwide. Origin lets players roam the world of Britannia in a huge open world, experiment with tag‑based combat, mix and match skills, and build custom teams using a wide roster of characters and weapons. You can explore solo or team up with friends to take down bosses and uncover secrets scattered across the world.

Easy Delivery Co. Hits Consoles This March, Time for a Chill Drive

Solo developer Sam C. and publisher Oro Interactive have some exciting news: Easy Delivery Co. is officially heading to Xbox Series XS, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch on March 26th. Soon, console players will get their turn behind the wheel, navigating snowy backroads and delivering all sorts of odd packages across its quiet mountain towns.

The game has already built an impressive reputation since its Steam launch back in September 2025. With over 250,000 copies sold and a 95% Overwhelmingly Positive rating from more than 8,000 reviews, it’s become one of those word‑of‑mouth gems that players keep recommending to each other. What started as a cozy driving game with a strong demo has grown into a fan favorite for anyone who enjoys relaxed exploration and a slightly mysterious vibe.

A Quiet Drive That Found Its Audience

PC players quickly fell in love with Easy Delivery Co.’s slow, thoughtful pacing and its subtle, almost dreamlike atmosphere. Some even described it as a “Cozy, Lynchian Dream” or “A Cozy Yet Creepy Driving Adventure”. With the console release, that full experience is opening up to a whole new crowd.

Console players can expect the same meditative drives through snowy forests, the freedom to find their own routes without map markers, and the satisfaction of upgrading their trusty truck to reach new areas. And of course, there’s the lingering question that keeps players hooked: why does it feel like you’re the only delivery driver left out there?

World of Tanks Goes Full Mafia, Lost Heaven Takes Over the Battlefield

World of Tanks is bringing some serious old‑school swagger to the front lines. From March 19 to March 29, the game is teaming up with the world of Mafia: Definitive Edition for Battle Pass Special: Mafia — an event packed with mobsters, muscle, and enough firepower to make any rival family “reconsider their options.”

A Battle Pass With Mob Connections
Progressing through the event lets players recruit iconic characters from Mafia: Definitive Edition as tank commanders, unlock themed decals and styles, and deck out their vehicles with gear inspired by some of the game’s most memorable moments. It’s basically a crossover where the Family trades Tommy guns for 120mm cannons.

Meet the Predatore — Your New Enforcer
Every good operation needs muscle, and WoT is introducing the Predatore, a Tier IX Italian medium tank built to “send a message.”
– Auto‑reloading gun for smooth, punishing bursts
– Excellent mobility to chase down anyone who thinks they can run
– Top‑tier speed to get in, hit hard, and disappear like a getaway car
If the Family had tanks in 1930, this would’ve been parked outside Salieri’s Bar.

Recruit the Family
During the event, you can bring in a full crew straight out of Lost Heaven:
– Tommy Angelo — former taxi driver turned rising mobster with grit to spare
– Paulie Lombardo — loudmouth, loyal, and always ready to throw hands
– Sam Trapani — quiet, efficient, and the guy you want watching your back
– Frank Colletti — the consigliere who keeps the whole operation smart
– Don Ennio Salieri — the boss who commands respect without ever raising his voice
Tommy and Paulie join you just by progressing through the Battle Pass. Sam, Frank, and the Don are available in special bundles for anyone looking to expand their “organization.”

Dress to Impress (and Intimidate)
A proper mobster doesn’t roll up looking sloppy. Three new 2D styles let you outfit your tank with some Lost Heaven flair:
– Little Italy
– Fair Play
– Lost Heaven Noir
Whether you want classy, gritty, or full black‑and‑white mob movie vibes, there’s something for every commander.

Missions, Drops, and Extra Rewards
Throughout the event, players can take on special missions for bonus loot, and Twitch viewers can snag themed Drops. It’s a good time to be part of the Family.

Roll out, make tracks, and remember: in Lost Heaven — and on the battlefield — family comes first.
