    Black Friday week is heating up, but the game releases and industry announcements are still dropping major bombs! Let's dive in:

    🚀 NEW RELEASES AND EARLY ACCESS DROPS

    The fan-made revival project for the classic FPS series, TimeSplitters: Rewind, has finally entered Early Access on PC after 13 years of development, inviting players to jump into its signature chaotic fun.


    Project Motor Racing is a realistic racing simulator built with next-gen physics, available now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, with early impressions praising it as a "love letter to GT and Forza."


    The acclaimed roguelike sequel, Wizard of Legend 2, which left Early Access for its 1.0 release on other platforms in June, has now arrived on the Nintendo Switch, bringing with it the much hyped couch co-op magic that's being called the "Best co-op of 2025."


    Captain Wayne is an indie adventure dropping today on PC for players who enjoy quirky narratives and unique storytelling.


    The chaotic FPS sequel, Kill It With Fire 2, is an FPS action game where you play as an Exterminator on a crusade to wipe out a spider infestation across the entire multiverse, using an arsenal of increasingly powerful and destructive weapons, available to play solo or in 4-player online co-op, and featuring an 8-player PvP mode where you can play as a spider.


    🎨 HOT OFF YESTERDAY (Still Trending!)

    Constance (PC/Steam): Don't miss this beautiful, hand-drawn 2D Metroidvania where you paint your way through a decaying mindscape. Famitsu gave it a shoutout today, and it has a 10% launch discount!


    Solo Leveling: ARISE OVERDRIVE (PC/Steam, Xbox PC): The action RPG based on the popular manhwa is delivering that ultimate power fantasy grind.


    Cross Blitz (PC/Steam): The new deck building RPG that officially launched yesterday is holding strong in the charts.


    📰 INDUSTRY AND TRIBUTE NEWS

    Live-Action Far Cry TV Series: A new, live action Far Cry show is officially in the works! It will be helmed by Noah Hawley (Fargo) and Rob McElhenney (It's Always Sunny), reportedly using an anthology format, new setting and cast each season, just like the games.

    Hideo Kojima Tribute: The legendary director posted a heartfelt tribute to the late actor Udo Kier, who was scheduled to appear in Kojima's upcoming horror game, OD.

    I am very hyped about the Far Cry TV adaptation. I saw that each season will be its own contained story, like the games, and that is a good thing!

    I didn't much gel with Alien: Earth, but Noah Hawley might be the best person to do right by this IP. It is not only Fargo, but also Legion, and Far Cry needs that creative madness to succeed.
