Kotaku Tuesday, April 23, 2024 5:00 PM  When I started playing Fallout 76 in 2018 there were no backpacks. So I never thought about it. But when I learned from a random comment that backpacks had been added after that point and had been in the game for years, I felt stupid for never crafting one. And then I went to collect the recipe for a pack and felt… |

PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 6:58 PM  It's only been a few years since Vampire Survivors came out, but in the time since it's had a massive impact on PC games. Over the last few months alone, we've seen the launch or announcement of everything from TemTem Swarm and a League of Legends take on the 'bullet heaven' genre to Artifact Seeker: Legend of Aurorium, Trinity Survivors, Nimrods: Guncraft Survivor, and Death Must Die. This trend doesn't seem to be letting up anytime soon, especially with today's announcement of the upcoming, Vampire Survivors style indie, Necromantic.

PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 5:54 PM  I never trusted the Pied Piper. Alright, he's a morality tale about paying people for their services but he undercuts his point by stealing a town's kids. Frankly I'd rather have the rats than deal with his ilk. In Ravenwatch, a gritty co-op rogelike action RPG, he and some other fairy tales have had the grim reimagining they deserve, meaning the Pied Piper finally looks how I always imagined he did; nasty.

PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 5:29 PM  Men of War 2 has been in the works for several years now. Replacing the hectic FPS gunfights of games like Call of Duty 2, Hell Let Loose, or Battlefield V with the further removed viewpoint of Company of Heroes 3 or even Commandos 2, the long awaited sequel is a new take on a series whose history dates back to the mid 2000s. Now, after war forced its Ukrainian creator Best Way to relocate its studio and delay their work, Men of War 2 finally has a launch date, which is, thankfully, quite soon.

PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 5:08 PM  If you were making a big medieval drink and your ingredients included city building from games like Manor Lords, survival elements from games like Valheim, and the in-depth open-endedness from RPGs such as Mount and Blade, you'd end up with a cocktail by the name of Bellwright. This ambitious strategy survival RPG mashup has been eagerly awaited and having just launched into Steam Early Access, it's rocketed up into the top ten best seller list. Unfortunately, not everything is looking rosy for the medieval sim, as initial reviews are pointing to a mixed rating on Valve's platform.

PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 4:00 PM  A great management game makes you feel like you're a master of your craft, sliding all the pieces into place and watching your clockwork creation tick. The best management games, however, make it just as fun when - intentionally or otherwise - a spring flies loose and the whole thing falls to pieces. Shown off during Wired Direct '24, Hotel Architect, from indie developer Pathos Interactive, is a delightfully light hearted management sim inspired by games like Two Point Hospital, The Sims and RollerCoaster Tycoon. Ahead of the showcase, PCGamesN spoke to Accel Sjöstrom from Pathos about its new game, the challenges of development, and making it fun to fail.

PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 4:01 PM  I've only given two 10/10 reviews in my career: Diablo 4 and Martha is Dead. The former, well, you've probably heard of that one, but the latter is an indie horror game set in World War II. Even if you haven't played it, you may have heard of a particular scene involving the removal of someone's face. Yes, LKA's bizarre tale of tragedy and woe isn't one for the faint of heart. But now the developer is back and working with Wired Productions on another adventure that potentially involves, well, mermaids.

PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 4:01 PM  Gaming culture, and many of the popular genres that dominate Steam, have become familiar and codified. You hear the term 'strategy game,' 'RPG,' or 'FPS' and you know immediately what to expect. City builders, likewise, come with expectations. Cities Skylines 2 is a distillation of the form - Frostpunk 2 seeks to challenge assumptions with a denser narrative and darker tone, but remains mechanically true to traditions. Speaking exclusively to PCGamesN, the creator of 2024's most unique city building game thinks more can be done to shake up the triple-A.

PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 4:01 PM  Tiny Tina's Wonderland, High on Life, Five Nights at Freddy's - there's something uncomfortably appealing about combining the innocence of child-friendly imagery with straight-up horror, gore, and profanity. Gori Cuddly Carnage, another of these not so kid-friendly games, focuses on the horrifying mutation of a series of sentient kids' toys. We spoke exclusively to John Kalderon, 3D artist and CEO at developer Angry Demon Studios, about the upcoming game before its release date reveal at Wired Direct '24. |
PCGamesN Tuesday, April 23, 2024 4:18 PM  Wired Direct 2024 delivered a veritable feast of upcoming indie games, though one has turned the heads of horror fans here at PCGamesN. In its debut outing, indie developer Pollard Studio delivers end-stage capitalist horror in Karma: The Dark World. Ahead of the showcase, we caught up with Pollard Studio and Wired Productions at GDC to uncover how this surreal, brutalist world goes beyond a Soviet-era spookfest with cutting-edge technology and a strong vision.

The Grand Hyatt Tokyo hotel in Japan has announced an upcoming collaboration with Pokemon Sleep. There will be two Pokemon Sleep-themed rooms, as well as a food menu based on the game. [Thanks, 4Gamer!]
You'll be able to choose between a standard room and a suite room. The suite room will have a design that looks like the Greengrass Isle, complete with a grass-like carpet, plants, and a small tent. There will also be a huge Snorlax plush, as well as toys of other Pokemon that are asleep.
While you won't be able to keep the decorated plushes, you'll be able to hold onto your amenities, as well as some small toys. The standard room looks like there's just a Pikachu toy and a Snorlax bedsheet cover.
During the collaboration period, you'll also be able to get special and exclusive food items like a Snorlax Burger, Wish Apple Pie, Professor Neroli's Detox Tea, Sleepy Tomato Salad, and Craft Soda Soda. These are all items you can get through room service. For breakfast, you can get an "American breakfast" or juice and pancakes. There will be other kinds of snacks available as well.
In order to stay at the Grand Hyatt Tokyo hotel for the Pokemon Sleep collaboration, you'll have to pay around 27.5k JPY per night, which covers two people. That's about $1745. You might have to pay some additional fees like service fees, and this price is for the suite room. You'll have until August 28, 2024 to put in your reservations, and the rooms will be available only from July 1 to September 1, 2024.
Pokemon Sleep is available on mobile devices.

For a limited time, and exclusively in Japan, Sega will release twelve types of merchandise featuring Sonic and his friends looking like they're from the Sengoku Era. The goods will start appearing in stores on April 26, 2024. [Thanks, PR Times!]
Aside from Sonic, you'll be able to get items of Knuckles, Tails, Amy, and Doctor Eggman. Some of them are wearing outfits like kimono, while others look like traditional guards or soldiers. According to research that Sega conducted on April 8, 2024, this is the first time in Sonic the Hedgehog history that the characters are wearing historical Japanese clothing.
With twelve variations and five characters, there are a total of fifty-seven different types of goods you'll be able to buy. Not all of them will feature the Sengoku Era aesthetic, but most of them will.
Here are the items you'll be able to buy:
According to Sega, these items would be good souvenirs not only for Sonic fans, but also for those who are interested in Japan. They are, as a reminder, exclusively available in that country.
The Sonic & Friends goods will be available to purchase in Japan from April 26, 2024.
