It's dangerous to go alone, so developer Poncle is adding online co-op to Vampire Survivors this fall. Up to four players can fight against the undead together in the roguelike game when version 1.14 drops later this year.
Poncle revealed the new online co-op mode for Vampire Survivors on YouTube. The trailer--seen below--shows how players can either create or join a lobby, with an ID number seemingly utilized to group up. It's unclear whether there will be cross-play at this time. "Free...

Sonic the Hedgehog 4 is celebrating its 15-year anniversary today, October 7, 2025. Below, we look back at Sega's uneven attempt to revive the classic 2D franchise, and how it ultimately fizzled.
There's no denying the glaring flaws of Sonic the Hedgehog 4--the wonky physics, the blatant remixing (or one might even say "rehashing") of classic levels and bosses from the first two Sonic games, and the soundtrack's questionable and often derided soundfont being chief among them. But despite...
Since the release of Assassin's Creed Mirage in 2023, Ubisoft has added a New Game+ mode, a parkour update, a permadeath mode, and a PS5 Pro patch. But all of that pales to the amount of content coming next month when Ubisoft launches the free DLC expansion, Assassin’s Creed Mirage: Valley of Memory.
Ubisoft announced the expansion to celebrate the second anniversary of the game. During the Valley of Memory reveal stream, it was disclosed that this DLC will add around six hours of gameplay...
Nintendo has fleetingly dropped some bombshell announcements on its Nintendo Today app, but the most recent drop is a real head-scratcher.
The gaming company shared a video on the app simply titled "Close to You," also uploading it on YouTube shortly after. Comments are turned off on YouTube, and the video description simply repeats the video title.
The animated video runs for almost four minutes and doesn't explicitly tie into any video game announcement; instead, it's a cute short film...
Battlefield 6's release on October 10 is coming up soon, and ahead of that, developer Battlefield Studios has announced the game's beefy day-one patch and teased naval warfare may be coming.
The game's day-one patch will have more than 200 changes, including bug fixes, balance improvements, and polish. The developer will publish the full patch notes later, but for now, the company released highlights, including that player movement will feel "more responsive" and that recoil has been...
Activision has announced that the Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 multiplayer beta has been extended by 24 hours, meaning it now wraps up on October 9 instead of October 8. That also means the beta is ending just before EA's Battlefield 6 launches on October 10 at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET.
The Black Ops 7 beta now officially concludes on Thursday, October 9 at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET.
For the final few days of the beta, Activision has added a new map, Toshin, which is the sixth map available in the test...
Haunted Chocolatier is the next game from ConcernedApe, the developer behind the massive indie farming sim, Stardew Valley. This has made Haunted Chocolatier highly anticipated, although little information about the game has been shared, beyond making it clear that it's a game where you move to a new town and take over a chocolate shop. ConcernedApe has said that it will share gameplay elements with Stardew Valley, but will be more of an action-RPG compared to Stardew Valley.
When will...
Battlefield veteran David Goldfarb's studio, The Outsiders, is closing down, but Goldfarb and the team are "not giving up."
In a statement, Goldfarb said The Outsider is shutting up shop as part of wider cuts at studio owner Funcom. The Outsiders, which was founded in 2015, had a close call at closing up shop when the studio's other game, Darkborn, was canceled in 2020, Goldfarb said. After that game didn't make it, Funcom took a majority ownership of The Outsiders. The studio then released...
In 2013, Microsoft briefly showed off a teaser for a spy game codenamed Project Ranger, which was in development by Blue Tusk Studios--the studio that later rebranded itself as The Collective. Project Ranger was abandoned over a decade ago, but a new report has shed some light on what was meant to be Xbox's answer to Uncharted.
Liam Robertson's Did You Know Gaming channel has posted an in-depth look back at Project Ranger, which Microsoft and Black Tusk initially had high hopes for...
Bungie's long-in-development PvE shooter Marathon, which was delayed indefinitely back in June, has resurfaced with an upcoming test.
A closed technical test for the game will run in North America and Europe from October 22-27 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Players can sign up for the test now, but Bungie said it's "limited" in scope, so simply applying does not guarantee entry. Furthermore, anyone accepted to the test must sign an NDA that forbids them from sharing details...
One of the key talking points about Battlefield 6 pre-release has been around the Open and Closed weapons playlists for multiplayer. For Battlefield 6, the developers are focusing on an Open weapons setup where people can pick any weapon, regardless of their class. The traditional Battlefield setup was that every class has its own unique and exclusive weapons. People made a lot of noise about this and how they wanted a Closed setup, but data from the beta--which offered Open and Closed...

FromSoft's massively popular--and just plain massive in general--received a co-op spinoff called Elden Ring: Nightreign earlier this year. The game sees groups of 1-3 players teaming up to take on the titanic threats in the new realm of Limgrave. It's been a hit with fans and critics alike, but it's also a big departure from the gameplay of the original Elden Ring. If you've been on the fence, now is a great time to give it a chance, as the Amazon-exclusive Elden Ring: Nightreign Deluxe...
