How do you follow up a five-star treat like Dave the Diver? With a zombie-themed, 16-player PvPvE stealth-survival extraction game, of course! Developer Mintrocket has just unveiled its next project, titled Nakwon: Last Paradise, and it's about as much a departure from its acclaimed snorkelling-and-sushi-restaurant-management adventure as you can get, dropping players onto the streets of Seoul, right into the middle of the undead apocalypse.
As per Mintrocket's lengthy Steam announcement, Nakwon's action is split into two main parts; on the Scouting side, players — with a friend in tow if desired — must leave the relative comforts of the titular safe zone to venture into the zombie-infested outskirts of Seoul. Here, the goal is to scavenge resources then escape back to safety, but other players and, of course, the AI-controlled undead, won't make that an easy task.
Mintrocket stresses that zombies in Nakwon are very much the hunters, and cannot be defeated. Instead, players — primarily armed with makeshift weaponry and tools rather than undead-shredding firepower, given the scarcity of guns — must navigate the streets as stealthily as possible to avoid detection, fleeing when necessary. And should they successfully make it back to the safe zone alive (it looks like players can come and go as they like, regardless of what other Survivors might be doing) the Simulation side of Nakwon begins.
Here, back in the safe zone, players can sell their hard-gained resources to make money, which will, in turn, allow them to reach a higher Citizen Grade and secure better privelidges and benefits. «Every day, you must decide whether to go out for Scouting or staying inside,» Mintrocket explains. «But, you must consistently secure more food to avoid starvation and make the best choice whenever an unexpected event occurs.»
Mintrocket says Nakwon: Last Paradise has been in development since December last year and is still in its «initial phase», with the team currently focused on the Scouting side of the experience. Despite being early days though, the studio says, «Getting community feedback is going to be very important to us, and so we'd like to start sharing information early and openly.» To that end, it's also announced an early pre-alpha test, coming later this year.

Developer Mintrocket has released a major update for fishing and restaurant management game Dave the Diver, adding a host of new content to the title. The update is quite comprehensive, bringing with it additional sub missions, as well as new types of creatures to catch.
Video game concerts are some of my favourite things in the world. Final Fantasy’s Distant Worlds, the NieR:Orchestra concerts, the Sonic Symphony - whatever particular series is your personal earworm, hearing music you’ve spent dozens or hours of hours listening to performed by a live orchestra can be incredibly moving and transformative. For those who feel that kind of connection with Stardew Valley, the engrossing farming-slash-romance-slash-dungeon-crawling sim is taking its OST on the road next year.
Fishing sim-cross-deep sea exploration game-cross-restaurant management gem Dave the Diver has reeled in a fairly expansive update, with new content updates, performance improvements and various bug fixes.
2023's best game about managing an underwater sushi restaurant is getting even better. The already ludicrously deep Dave the Diver got its first content update yesterday, bringing a surfeit of improvements to the undersea management sim and, crucially, introducing the spellbinding notion of the «Lobster Party».
It’s official — you’ll soon be able to experience the music of Stardew Valley in live orchestral form, as a real-life concert tour is set to kick off next year across the globe.
If you just can't get enough Stardew Valley in your life, here's a different way to indulge in its unrelenting life sim coziness: The Stardew Valley «Festival of Seasons» concert series, an international musical tour featuring a selection of music from the game performed by a chamber orchestra.
Spearfishing and sushi restaurant managing indie RPG Dave the Diver was my surprise delight from last year, and proper release saw everyone else at PC Gamer agreeing with me. It's also poised to get its first real content update since release this month, October, bringing greater diversity to some dives, a fresh new quality of life update, and some straight-up crustaceans.
Indie scuba diving and management sim Dave the Diver is getting its next major update “real soon”. Slated for release later this month, the update will bring a host of new content to the game, including a new zone and new species.
We’ve all imagined ourselves as the stars (or the villains) of a reality show, right? What could we say, how could we act, or who could we woo to bag the ultimate prize? Everyman Trevor Hills - with his office getup, dad-sized ‘tache, and lanky build - isn’t quite so lucky in the upcoming American Arcadia. You see, he’s unknowingly stuck in a reality TV show where the penalty for unpopularity is death, and considering he has the personality of a pencil, his only option is to escape in genre-bending fashion. See below!
Dave the Diver is already one of the most delightful success stories of 2023, as the fishing game and restaurant management sim splashed its way up the Steam charts and won the hearts and minds of players everywhere, including many of us here at PCGamesN. Now, developer Mintrocket announces that a free update landing in mid October will introduce plenty of new features to explore, giving plenty of reasons to pull your diving gear back out once more.
If Dave the Diver is great (which it officially is, of course) then it stands to reason that more Dave the Diver will also be great. So prepare to be showered in additional greatness when Dave the Diver's first proper content updates arrives «real soon».
