Binary Haze Interactive’s Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist, a follow-up to the acclaimed Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights, is now available in Steam Early Access.

That’s it, guys, we made it: Time for March to go out like a lamb, as the old adage says, and spring has sprung — most notably (“most” here for if you are not the type who wants to go touch literal grass) in the form of our spring preview, which forecasts some of the best TV shows, movies, books, anime, and more coming this season.

With the Game Developers Conference in full swing, the winners of the 24th Annual Game Developers Choice Awards (GDCAs) have been announced, featuring Baldur's Gate 3 on the throne.

Fans are still waiting for a full reveal of what can be expected from Diablo IV Season 4, but today during their latest “Campfire Chat,” Blizzard revealed some of the nitty gritty things players need to know about the season. First off, Season 4 will be arriving later than expected, as Blizzard wants to make sure that feedback from Diablo IV’s first public test realm will be fully incorporated. So, instead of coming out on April 16 as previously promised, Season 4 will arrive on May 14.

Microsoft has revealed the titles they’ll be adding to Xbox Game Pass on PC and consoles in late March and very-early April, and it’s a pretty packed lineup. The headliner is Diablo IV, one of the first major Acti-Blizz games to jump to Game Pass following Microsoft’s acquisition of the publisher. Other notable additions include The Quarry, Hot Wheels Unleashed 2, and the new-release indie game Open Roads.

Spring is in the air, which means it’s time to do some Spring cleaning. Thankfully, that doesn’t mean cleaning out your wallet because Steam has launched its seasonal sale event to cut prices on tons of amazing games to some of the lowest we’ve seen.

Steam has set yet another record for concurrent users online on its platform. Two weeks ago, it had surpassed 34 million concurrent users, and then the following week it hit 35 million. Yesterday, at 14:00 UTC, a new record was set when 36.354 million Steam users were online at the same time, as tracked by SteamDB. These continuous records clearly point to a healthy, growing platform, not just for Steam but for PC gaming as a whole.

Spring is almost upon us (or already here for those lucky enough to not be living in Canada) and that means the Steam Spring Sale is in full swing, offering discounts on thousands of titles. This year, we’re getting deep discounts on some of 2023’s top games, including Hogwarts Legacy, Diablo IV, Mortal Kombat 1, and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. Recent hits like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Palworld are also getting their first modest discounts. Of course, some perennial favorites like GTA V are also on sale. I’ve picked out a selection of deals that might pique your interest. Check the list out, below.

Embark Studios’ latest season for THE FINALS is now live and lends a retro 80s theme to the proceedings. There’s a new map – SYS$HORIZON – and a new game show event in Retro Invasion 82. Players can also leverage a new Specialization, Dematerializer, which allows for materializing temporary holes, perfect for dropping Cashout Stations.

Diablo 4 players aren't impressed with the new endgame dungeon, calling the Gauntlet "pointless" and "uninteresting." 

The Star Wars beer meme based on a real-life advertising campaign has made its way into Helldivers 2, Diablo 4, Yakuza, and more. 

The Gauntlet is finally out, and with it, so are Leaderboards! A widely requested Diablo 4 feature, these leaderboards have been in flux all night, with the Top 10 for each class constantly shifting as higher and higher scores are achieved. While Day 1's launch means that the Hall of the Ancients is currently unpopulated, we're taking a look at a snapshot of tonight's progress — and what it shows for each class. Diablo 4 Gauntlet Build Tier List Diablo 4 Gauntlet and Leaderboards GuideEditor's Note: Due to the rapid nature of change in the opening night's leaderboards, this data was taken from a snapshot of builds and leaderboards at approximately 6:30pm EST. The data has changed since then, however we're focused on this one instance for now to represent the spread of builds we've seen so far. Additionally, due to the fact that many players have elected to make their profiles private on the leaderboards, we're currently exploring the best way to present this data as accurately and faithfully as possible. We may incorporate feedback and suggestions, so let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
