Eve Meets the Counter Squad as Stellar Blade and Nikke Join Forces!

Cheese and loyal pets (two important items on Maslow's hierarchy of needs) have been added to the co-op survival crafting game Abiotic Factor. The dairy product manifests as various suspiciously coloured cheese wheels which you can cook and eat, while loyalty comes in the form of freakish pets that can now follow your every move. The pets themselves are technically not new to Abiotic Factor, but their player-tracking behaviour is. "There is, as far as we know, no limit to how many pets can follow you at once," say the devs. Hmmm. I wonder if any scientifically minded folks will test such a hypothesis.

These abilities help you dodge and parry difficult enemies more effectively, making this challenging game a little easier.

Vitcoins are a type of currency in that can be spent on cosmetics for EVE, but it can be hard to figure out how to get more of this item. Coins are scattered throughout different regions you explore, but they have a chance to respawn even after you've collected them. Those looking to farm Vitcoins can follow a few strategies to eventually buy whatever visual items they want.

As you get toward the end of , you'll slowly approach one of three possible endings. The endings largely depend on your decision following your interaction with Adam at the Nest.
