June 5, 2026

Spike Chunsoft and MAGES. have released a new trailer for STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT, the remake of the original STEINS;GATE visual novel, showcasing the new “Gamma Worldline” route. The Gamma Worldline route is completely original to STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT, and it’s described as “brutal,” as players see Rintaro Okabe descend into a deeper despair.

Here’s an overview of the Gamma Worldline route and the new trailer, via Spike Chunsoft

After enduring countless brutal ordeals, protagonist Rintaro Okabe finds himself cast into a new worldline. In this world, the time machine was never completed, and D-Mails, messages capable of altering the past, do not exist. Vastly diverging from the worldline he knows, Okabe struggles to comprehend the situation. Seeking help, he rushes to the lab, only to be met with hostile stares from the very lab members who should be his friends.

In this additional route, the story depicts a Gamma Worldline, where the persona of Hououin Kyouma, the driving force behind the main story, never existed. Instead, Okabe dirties his hands alongside Moeka Kiryu and is confronted with loneliness and despair.

A new kind of brutality, unlike anything seen before, awaits both Rintaro Okabe and the player.

We invite you to see this story through to its end.

STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT launches on August 20 for Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam, followed by the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 versions on October 29. STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT will be digital-only for Xbox Series X|S and PC, and all versions will feature English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese language support with Japanese voice-overs.

Spike Chunsoft will publish physical Standard and SteelBook Editions of STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. These editions will feature a new cover illustration by character designer huke, and each edition includes a sticker as a first-print-run bonus. Pre-orders for STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT are now open at participating retailers.

Palworld Version 1.0 Releases on July 10

Pocketpair has announced that version 1.0 of Palworld will finally release on July 10. It will be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Mac, and PC via Microsoft Store and Steam.

Check out the cinematic trailer for version 1.0 of Palworld below:

Palworld is currently available now in early access. Here’s an overview of the game, via Steam:

Survival

In a harsh environment where food is scarce and vicious poachers roam, danger waits around every corner. To survive, you must tread carefully and make difficult choices…even if that means eating your own Pals when the time comes.

Mounts & Exploration

Pals can be mounted to traverse the land, sea and sky—allowing you to traverse all kinds of environment as you explore the world.

Building Structures

Want to build a pyramid? Put an army of Pals on the job. Don’t worry; there are no labor laws for Pals.

Production

Make use of Pals and their skills to make fire, generate electricity, or mine ore so that you can live a life of comfort.

Farming

Some Pals are good at planting seeds, while others are skilled at watering or harvesting crops. Work together with your Pals to create an idyllic farmstead.

Factories & Automation

Letting Pals do the work is the key to automation. Build a factory, place a Pal in it, and they’ll keep working as long as they’re fed—until they’re dead, that is.

Dungeon Exploration

With Pals on your side you can tackle even the most dangerous areas. When the time comes, you might have to sacrifice one to save your skin. They’ll protect your life—even if it costs their own.

Breeding & Genetics

Breed a Pal and it will inherit the characteristics of its parents. Combine rare pals to create the strongest Pal of them all!

Poaching & Crime

Endangered Pals live in wildlife sanctuaries. Sneak in and capture rare Pals to get rich quick! It’s not a crime if you don’t get caught, after all.

Multiplayer

Multiplayer is supported, so invite a friend and go on an adventure together! And of course you can battle your friends and trade Pals, too.

Obsidian announced that the next major update for Grounded 2, “Into the Abyss,” will also bring the game to PlayStation 5 on August 11. This update will bring new locations, features, creatures, progression updates, and buildings. It will also give text language support for Korean and Traditional Chinese.

Check out the trailer below:

Here’s an overview of the game, via Steam:

When you’ve been shrunk to the size of an ant, what was once familiar is now a wild, uncharted frontier. Traverse sprawling manmade spaces overgrown with nature with buggies that can fight alongside with you, uncover hidden secrets, and fight to survive in a world much larger than the backyard. The playground may seem familiar, but beneath its bright colors and towering structures lie mysteries hidden in plain sight. Are you ready to uncover them?

Survive, Adapt, Overcome

The world is relentless, but so are you. Shape your adventure with unique archetypes, each offering distinct abilities to match your playstyle. Whether you rely on precision, cunning, or sheer strength, you’ll need every advantage to survive against the threats lurking in the park.

Stronger Together

The perils of the park are daunting alone, but with friends, every challenge becomes an adventure. Work together to build, fight, and uncover the secrets buried beneath the grass. Whether you’re facing danger side by side or continuing your journey in a shared world, survival is always better with allies.

Walking is Bogus Introducing Buggies

They scurry, they fight, and now—they help you survive. Hatch, raise, and ride your own insect friends – buggies! Saddle up and ride through the park, command them in battle, or have them help gather resources. The right partner could mean the difference between thriving and barely surviving.

A Shadow That Follows You

The threat is always there—watching, learning, waiting. You don’t know where it’s coming from, only that it never leaves. The deeper you dig, the closer it gets. Some mysteries should stay buried, but it’s too late now. It knows you’re looking. And it’s ready. Every answer drags you deeper, every step invites something closer. You were never alone. You thought you were in control. You were wrong.

Grounded 2 is currently available for Xbox Series X|S and PC through Game Preview and Early Access on Steam.
