Start using maps to check out service stations in Scandinavia, as Euro Truck Simulator 2's Nordic Horizons expansion is set to release on November 27th.

This DLC was announced back in January 2024, and as it shuffles out of SCS Software's ever-busy DLC pipeline, it'll leave some coaches and a recently revealed trip to Ireland waiting in the traffic queue. The devs have also been doing plenty of cool existing area revamps.

Lies Of P publishers Neowiz – gosh, perilously close to writing Lies Of Publishers, there! - have revealed that they have seven PC games in development, including their already announced Lies of P sequel.

Ok, before you get angry, all I know is that the Home Alone guy's playing someone either in Caesar's Legion or who dresses as a member of Caesar's Legion, not that he's nailed on to be wolf hat bloke. I just liked the headline. Now that disclaimer's out of the way, Amazon's Fallout TV series has gotten another trailer ahead of its December 17th debut.

As previous trailers have outlined, this chain of episodes is set in NEW VEGAS. That's NEW VEGAS, the setting of obscure 2010 RPG Fallout: NEW VEGAS. There are characters, factions and things from NEW VEGAS, which the established cast will be interacting with because they're heading to NEW VEGAS. Capische?

"Season...6..." I gasp through a parched throat and unwashed beard. "Need...season 6...of popular subterranean co-op shooter Deep Rock Galactic, developed by Ghost Ship Games..."

Mr. Ghost Ship himself stands over my skeletal body, knees and elbows shredded to the sinew from nearly a year and a half of crawling through the update desert. "How about Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor’s recent 1.0 release, or our upcoming, if sadly delayed, roguelike spin-off Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core?"

"I mean...they’re alright," I croak. "But season...siiiiiiiiiix..."

"Okay, okay," he concedes. "It’s called Relics of Hoxxes and it’s out in Q1 2026, which in English is between January and March."

"Ah...nice."

Earlier this year, the reveal of Sloclap’s Rematch sent me into spirals of introspection about the classist origins of my apathy for football. Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road is sending me into spirals of introspection about the fact that maybe football was a Dragon Quest RPG all along. Hypersonic penalty kicks that wreathe the ball in purple fire? Nobody told me football was this rad. So many years wasted, playing effing grass hockey.

Over 200 staff at GTA 6 developers Rockstar North have signed a letter to management calling for the "immediate reinstatement" of 31 workers fired recently by the company. Rockstar claimed they fired these staffers for "gross misconduct", subsequently accusing them of sharing confidential info publicly. UK union the IWGB, of which the fired staff were members, have accused Rockstar of union busting and filed legal claims against the company.

The union have also held protests outside Rockstar North and Take-Two's UK offices.

People who savour the sweet reek of Saturn V exhaust, rejoice. People who love cats, tremble. Felipe Falanghe, original developer of gurning spaceflight simulator Kerbal Space Program, has teamed up with Dean Hall, original creator of zombie MMO DayZ, to make a spiritual Kerbal successor - Kitten Space Agency.

As the name may suggest, it trades the little green men of KSP for a bunch of feline astronauts - a meme-ish setup that apparently has nothing to do with real-life space experiments on animals, and which goes hand-in-paw with a new in-house software engine. Also, Hall and Falanghe have hired a former SpaceX staffer to work on the physics.

If you sit and look at one of Assetto Corsa Rally’s gorgeously-rendered Alfa Romeos, Lancias, or Fiats in the car preview screens, there’s a palpable elegance and beauty to their forms.

Sadly, anyone watching me attempt to wrestle them through the Welsh woods or along tight stretches of French tarmac over the course of six hours so far would have rarely seen any elegant or beautiful driving. There are times, especially in long sweeping turns, when things start to feel as satisfying as they should. Most of the time though, Assetto Corsa Rally with a wheel feels a lot like you’re skating on ice, rather than the gravel and tarmac it currently offers.

Oh shit, Call of Duty Black Ops 7 comes out tomorrow, November 14th. As you'd expect, Activision have been busy yelling about it amid the deafening din of about 10,000 other games whizzing past per minute. There are some launch day patch notes and a rundown of what the mode you unlock if you beat the single-player bit involves. Let's take a gander.

Among the trio of new hardware devices Valve just announced for 2026 – which also include the Steam Frame VR headset and a redesigned Steam Controller – the new Steam Machine is probably the most surprising. Mainly because the original Steam Machines, a series of partner-built SteamOS mini-PCs, sank like rectangular stones upon launching in 2015.

Designed and built entirely in-house, the new model is a very different proposition, though it’s not so much the updated hardware that has Valve believing it’s time to give the Steam Machine another chance. According to engineers Yazan Aldehayyat and Pierre-Loup Griffais, the biggest problem faced by those doomed Machines was one that the Steam Deck’s Proton software has solved: a lack of SteamOS-compatible games.
