Halloween descends on Gielnoir as RuneScape embraces the spooky spirit
We only have a short amount of time with Halloween before Christmas comes and ruins our shopping trips for an awful length of time, so let's make the most of it and look at anything vaguely ghoulish. To this end, RuneScape has begun its Harvest Hollow Halloween Event, and yes it took me three times to say that properly. Until November 4th you can take part in three weeks of frightful fun, including the titular Harvest Hollow. This dark place is stuffed full of pumpkins, candles, campfires, and, for some reason, tentacles. To tackle this unusual obstacle and more, you will team up with one of the Five Horsemen, of the imaginatively named Horsemen clan. In the Field of Screams event, it will…
Honkai: Star Rail is set to return to Penacony in Version 2.6 later this month
I don’t want to suggest that Honkai: Star Rail is already running out of ideas, but we are only at Version 2.6 and we are already returning to another previous location. The last few story updates involved the return to the Xianzhou fleet, and now we are set to revisit Penacony in Annals of Pinecany’s Mappou Age, releasing October 23rd. In Penacony we shall be visiting Paperfold University as it prepares for its newest semester. The campus is abuzz as clubs recruit new members and music fills the air. To celebrate, the university is hosting an exclusive academic seminar. Due to the Astral Express Crew’s tendency to make a mark on every place they meet, they have been invit…
The perfect combination of idols and fish comes to Play Together
Things have taken a bit of a weird turn in Play Together, as idol fever has infected Haegin's social networking games. A little late to be fair, it feels like that whole genre has simmered down a bit, but nonetheless, things are about to get a lot more show business. Project Aika has kicked off on Kaia Island, with the aim of finding the land's top idol stars. It will be your job to test contestants to see if they have the vocals, dance moves, and all the other ingredients that add up to a K-pop artist. As you go through these missions you will be able to unlock the Dance Floor, a mobile stage that you just might perform on yourself, if you are lucky. You will also start to earn Aika…
Square Enix drops pre-registration for Ember Storia for iOS and Android in Japan
Normally when we mention Square Enix in the mobile sphere it is because they have killed yet another of their games - I have seriously lost count at this point. However, we are going in the opposite direction this time, as Square Enix has announced pre-registrations for Ember Storia. The story is set in the land of Rengoku, which translates as Purgatory. Humans have brought destruction wherever they go, resulting in a ruined world where demons run rampant. Engineers managed to create giant ships to revive lost souls and harvest resources to survive, and you will be stepping up to helm the Anima Arca. Not only is this hulking great ship your base, but it is also your home, and you can treat…

GRID Legends: Deluxe Edition is available for pre-order on mobile devices now
There are quite a few driving series kicking around nowadays, and out of them all, GRID is one that doesn’t really grab the spotlight constantly. Codemasters put out solid titles that are overlooked, but maybe they will have luck on mobile devices, as GRID Legends: Deluxe Edition is now available to pre-order. Legends is the next in the series to hit mobile storefronts after GRID Autosport, which itself garnered some stellar reviews.

Protect the world of Rea as Children of Morta launches on mobile
Back in the far-off land of 2019, developers Dead Mage - fantastic name - released their roguelike action RPG on PC and console. It racked up some good reviews and is now making its way to mobile, complete with a special launch price. In Children of Morta, you will join the Bergson clan as they strive to save the land of Rea from the Corruption. There are seven characters to pick between, each with their own suite of abilities, fighting style, and personality to journey with. You will bond with these characters, and then watch them die again and again. One of the worst things about having multiple playable protagonists is the possibility that you might have to balance the chance of develop…
Halloween comes to Stumble Guys and heralds the return of two past collaborations
It is October, the spooky season, Halloween, the last bastion before the relentless, unforgiving tide of Christmas sweeps over us. Every second counts as we enjoy our precious last moments before THOSE songs hammer into our skulls once more. So whilst we can, let's enjoy the sounds of people falling over again and again in Stumble Guy's seasonal events. Let’s start with the obvious one, the big daddy, the spooky supreme; Halloween.

People get hit by a lot of the course, their business is…
It's the Spooky Symbiote Season as Venom and co invade Marvel Snap
Despite most famously being on the darker side of the moral spectrum, it is hard not to argue that the Symbiotes in Marvel are fantastic. Marvel Snap is honouring this slate of characters in this most fitting month, and no doubt building on the hype for the upcoming film, with the We Are Venom season. Let's dive into the main attraction here; the new symbiote cards. If you like low-cost decks, then Agent Venom is for you. This 2-cost, 4-Power card sets all cards in your deck to 4power, perfect for an early game rush but you will lose a prolonged fight. It might suit Scream though, a 2/2 who once per turn steals 2 Power from a moving enemy card. Discarding the 1/2 Scorn will return it to yo…
Step into the wacky world of GO RUSH in Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Links latest update
Konami has announced the longest update name in Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Links, with the Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!! World Release & Massive Major Update Campaign launching now. Go Rush is the eighth series in the Yu-Gi-Oh banner, and I too have lost track of all of them. What we know for sure though, is this upgrade brings a lot of rewards. Go Rush centres around Yudias Velgear, an alien from Velgear VIII of the Velgear Star Cluster who came to Earth to learn about Rush Dueling to save his planet. It makes you miss Kaiba and his elevator to space. Yudias works with his friends such as Yuamu Ohdo and Yuhi Ohdo, who we will no doubt see in this update. In fact, simply log in and you can get your hands on…
NetEase Games release new trailer for streetball-sim Dunk City Dynasty
If you are looking for a basketball game, pretty much the only one to comes to mind is the NBA series, but what if you want something a little more punchy? Well, NetEase will have you covered, in 2025 at least, as they have released the first trailer for Dunk City Dynasty. What makes Dunk City stand out right off the bat is the fact it is the first streetball mobile Game licensed by the National Basketball Players Association or the NBPA.

If you have been aching for a Warframe hit before the monumental 1999 update later this year, you will be well served. Hot off the presses from the Tokyo Game Show, Digital Extremes has lifted the lid on Koumei & the Five Fates, showcasing its new character and mode ahead of the October 2nd release. Waframe has been out for a good while now, and we have all gotten reasonably good at it, so what can you do if you want to mix things up a bit? Well, you could try out the 58th Warframe, Koumei.

The seasons march forward in Play Together as Fall graces the island
Play Together has always had one of the more frequent updates and event schedules, as you would expect from a game heavy on the social aspect, but they've gone a step further this time. After releasing collectable lizards a mere week ago, Haegin is already back ushering the new season onto Kaia Island. It is the Fall or Autumn, and the world has gotten a whole lot more orange. Maple leaves have sprung on the trees which can only mean one thing; it is time to alter the ecosystem of Kaia Island drastically. Brandish your bug net and start swinging to capture Cranky Chestnuts and Smiling Acorns. By catching these, I can only assume nightmarish, things, you will collect rewards such as…
Venture into the Outer Ring as Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.2 launches September 25th
I find it a bit of a double-edged sword when developers give their updates cool-sounding names - yes it is intriguing, but you also have to live up to it. HoyYoverse then has given their fledgling ARPG Zenless Zone Zeros’ Version 1.2 a lot to live up to when it launches on September 25th, giving it the rather grand title of Tour de Inferno. In this update, you will make your way to the Outer Ring, an undeveloped and barren area set to be the main area of this chapter. Whilst not looking like much, it is swimming in fuel resources which leads to clashes between rival groups. It's one such battle you shall be wading into, working with the Sons of Calydon as they face off against rivals…
Star Wars: Hunters braces for backlash as a new Ewok character enters the battlefield
If you know about the universe of Star Wars then you might be aware that the introduction of Ewoks in Return of the Jedi was a little bit controversial, to say the least. Star Wars: Hunters then is going to give fans another reason to be potentially peeved as new character Pilbush arrives in the fight. Pilbush is the herald of season 3, dubbed Echoes of the Rebellion. This is a frigid Hoth-themed upgrade that brings with it the Hoth Frontline map and some icy-themed cosmetics. The headline is of course the Ewok themselves, a self-proclaimed Rebel Alliance Superfan with a burning hatred of the Empire. As such, the seasonal clash event will pit Pitbush against Stormtrooper Sentinel, but they…
