PCGamesN Wednesday, January 29, 2025 7:04 PM  Minecraft may be an enormous sandbox where you can build anything you like, but that doesn't mean the laws of nature shouldn't be adhered to. That was the conclusion Mojang came to in 2022, anyway, when it scrapped plans to add fireflies in as a passive mob because, in the real world, they are poisonous to frogs. Yes, really. Well, over two years on from that moment, fireflies are coming back to Minecraft - but not as a mob.

PCGamesN Wednesday, January 29, 2025 6:10 PM  Back 4 Blood is widely regarded as the greatest co-op zombie game ever. Resident Evil gives us some of the scariest undead experiences. The likes of DayZ are touted for their intense focus on survival. But in discussions about iconic zombie games, Dying Light is a name that should come up more often than it does. While the original is great, Dying Light 2 is a far more accomplished iteration of the open-world, parkour-infused zombie slaying game, and right now it's super cheap on Steam. In fact, it's dropped to its lowest ever price. MORE FROM PCGAMESN: Dying Light 2 review, Dying Light 2 factions, Best zombie games |

Idea Factory and Compile Heart are reportedly working on a new numbered Hyperdimension Neptunia game. It appears that the new game will be announced before the end of 2025. [Thanks, ryokutya2089!]
As part of an interview in the upcoming issue of the Famitsu magazine, Hikaru Yasui, a producer and director for the Hyperdimension Neptunia series, reportedly said that the he has been working alongside artist and developer Tsunako on a storyline for a continuation of the series for the last 3 or 4 years. Yasui teased that 4 goddesses will appear in the next title, and the developers have plenty in store.
Yasui also said that the entire staff is currently working hard in order to announce the latest numbered entry in the Hyperdimension Neptunia series to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the series. While the information shared by leaker ryokutya2089 addresses the next game as a "numbered title," this most likely refers to a mainline Hyperdimension Neptunia game.
As a reminder, the last main title in the series is Megadimension Neptunia VII, originally released for the PS4 on April 23, 2015 in Japan and February 2016 overseas. Without counting side games and spin-offs, there are only 4 main Neptunia games.
Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos is the latest game in the series, and it is now available for the Nintendo Switch, PS4 and PS5.
