Outward 2

Nine Dots Studio announced soulslike action RPG Outward 2 launches in summer 2026 for PC via Steam. A new trailer for Outward 2 was released during PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct during Tokyo Game Show 2025.

Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via Steam:

Life as an adventurer is perilous.

It’s not just creatures and brigands that threaten you. Hunger, illness and the elements are all part of your journey into the vast regions of Aurai. But with sufficient preparation, even ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things. Your victories will be earned, not handed to you.

Explore the vast region of Aurai at your own pace.

With no fast travel and no magic map telling you where you are, Outward 2 rewards true exploration. Our dynamic and seasonal weather system means you’ll need to adapt to the changing season and weather hazards.

Improved Combat System

We built on Outward combat system to give you the best fighting experience we can. In Outward 2, the number of skills you can learn is limited. Choose the way you want to live your adventure.

Will you be a powerful warrior, a deadly ranged bowman entrenched behind your traps or magic wielding mage boosting your power through sigils.

Sharing is caring! Single Player / Co-op / Split Screen!

Just like in Outward, you can enjoy your adventure cooperatively online or locally with Split-Screen!

And whilst single player adventuring is at the very core of Outward 2, we thought “why limit the enjoyment?” Players can if they desire double the fun (or double the trouble maybe more apt), and play together!

Whether you embrace sabotage, survival, or pure mischief, Task Time promises non-stop hilarious moments that test your friendships and maybe even your sanity!

      • Easy to pick up, impossible to put down, every round presents a new opportunity to come out on top. So, even the clumsiest Taskling can pull off a shocking victory.  
      • Over 500 unlockable cosmetics and emotes. The best part? NO MICROTRANSACTIONS!  
      • Endlessly replayable with over half a million randomly generated tasks to complete.   
      • Host lobbies with up to 8 players, where 4-player split screen and online multiplayer are playable simultaneously.

Wired Productions and Serafini Productions have revealed BrokenLore: DON’T LIE, a new psychological horror game and spin-off of DON’T WATCH. BrokenLore: DON’T LIE is coming soon to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via its store pages:

Not all you see is real. Not all you hear is true. Above all – DON’T LIE.

From the BrokenLore saga comes a new first-person psychological horror.

A longer and darker spin-off of DON’T WATCH.

In BrokenLore: DON’T LIE, step into the fragile world of Junko, a young woman attempting to reconnect with Shinji and Hideo, two patients she once met in a rehabilitation center. Confined to her small apartment, she struggles between daily calls, fleeting moments of intimacy, and her own destructive compulsions. Her reliance on medication slowly unravels reality itself, leading her into warped visions and liminal spaces where nothing remains stable.

Gameplay Features

      • Immersive first-person psychological horror: a story-driven descent into paranoia and delusion with realistic atmosphere and detail.
      • Exploration phases: search Junko’s apartment, eerie locations, and unsettling liminal spaces for clues, objects, and fragments of memory.
      • Stealth sequences: hide and remain silent as hallucinations stalk you.
      • Combat: survive confrontations with Junko’s most terrifying visions.
      • Dynamic storytelling: small choices, conversations, and lies subtly influence Junko’s fragile state of mind.

Fantasy Boy

      • Junko plays a retro side-scroller called Fantasy Boy to calm herself. These playable segments are directly integrated into the experience.
      • At first innocent and nostalgic, they eventually merge with her reality in unsettling ways, colliding with the hyper-realistic world and turning it into something grotesque.
      • Through Junko’s eyes alone, you drift between suffocating everyday life and distorted hallucinations, where glitches, mutations, and whispers of unseen eyes follow you at every step.
      • Every glance in the mirror might reveal something new.
      • Every word spoken might alter the fragile balance.
      • Every lie brings you closer to what you fear most.
      • Find out what really happened in BrokenLore: DON’T WATCH…
      • Don’t trust what you see…
      • Don’t trust what you hear…
      • Above all, DON’T LIE…
