According to everyone’s favorite dataminer Billbil-kun, the next two free games coming to the Epic Games Store are Industria and Lisa: The Painful Definitive Edition. The titles will be available from April 25 until May 2 and will replace The Big Con and Town of Salem 2.

Imitated, but never duplicated, Unpacking is a cozy game that tells a surprisingly emotional story through the meditative process of organizing your belongings in different rooms (it’s fun, but don’t just take it from me; it earned the number 13 spot in Polygon’s 2021 game of the year ranking). The game is a wealth of luscious pixel art, lovingly crafted for items ranging from the mundane to the truly distinct, each paired with a unique snippet of satisfying foley audio. Now, thanks to Serenity Forge, many of those same items are available for you to unpack in your own home.

Four years after its original announcement, developer MidBoss has revealed the sequel to 2064: Read Only Memories, titled Read Only Memories: NEURODIVER, will finally launch for PS5 on 16th May 2024. It will cost £12.79 / $14.99 and releases predominantly as a digital title on the PS Store, though a physical version is available for pre-order at Serenity Forge. While a PS4 version had been confirmed previously, it's mentioned nowhere in today's press assets, so it's likely been cancelled.

Retro cyberpunk mystery adventure game Read Only Memories: NEURODIVER will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store Store on May 16 for $14.99 / £12.79 / €14.79, publisher Chorus Worldwide and developer MidBoss announced.

Publisher Serenity Forge and developer Twin Otter Studios will release strategy RPG Arcadian Atlas for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Switch on November 30 for $29.99, the companies announced.

Paratopic was a muddy, blood-filled VHS cassette of a game, a game of midnight highways, pinched, pixelart faces and acidic service station lighting. The next game from developer Arbitrary Metric, Roman Sands RE:Build, is... very different, at least on the surface.

Publisher Serenity Forge and developer Arbitrary Metric have released a demo for first-person narrative adventure game Roman Sands RE:Build for PC via Steam.

I was equipped with a sniper rifle and positioned high above a courtyard. Enemies began bursting from behind cover and scattering across the area. I easily picked them off one by one but instinctively panicked when two of them burst into the room I was hiding in. If I've learned anything from video games, it's that sniper rifles don't work well from up close. But to my surprise, Long Gone Days isn't just a pixel-based sniper simulator. It's also a turn-based combat game with different weapons, abilities, and items. It's a lot more than what it appears on the surface. 

War-torn role-playing game Long Gone Days is bringing the front to PC and consoles soon. Developer This I Dreamt and newfound publishing partner Serenity Forge announced today that Long Gone Days will hit PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch on October 10, 2023.

Narrative-focused wartime RPG Long Gone Days will leave Early Access and launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam and more on October 10 for $24.99, publisher Serenity Forge and developer This I Dreamt announced.

Lisa: The Painful has been described to me as Undertale before Undertale. Or Earthbound after Earthbound (so, uh, Mother 3?). In other words, Lisa was a bit of a cult classic thanks to its freaky world, absurd humour, and brutal consequences. And when I say brutal consequences, I mean your party members can permanently lose limbs or turn into mounds of saggy flesh. How’s that for a debuff? Its Definitive Edition is out now, though, so maybe its "cult" status will finally blossom into mainstream appeal. Lisa: Definitive Edition bundles in the original game and its expansion, Lisa The Joyful, as well as new enemies, bosses, stories and endings, and an easier “Painless” mode.
