What are we all playing this weekend?

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 has officially released, but even with a whole new story to play through, some fans can't help but wonder; when's the next game out? 

Spooky Season is officially back in full swing, and for many people, that means a return to some beloved shows, movies, and games. One particular classic that returns year after year is Over The Garden Wall. This strange and wonderful mini-series follows a pair of half-brothers as they traverse a forest called “The Unknown” and struggle to tell friend from foe as they search for a way back home.

How is it October already? A month of trick or treating and enormous game releases awaits, so you better be on top of that backlog or else! Here’s what we’re playing!

Free-to-play colossus Honkai: Star Rail is out now on PS5 following a hugely successful stint on mobile devices. From HoYoverse, the developer behind Genshin Impact, the turn-based RPG is another free-to-play romp, so we want to know if you've been tempted into giving it a try.

We're just days away from the release of Marvel's Spider-Man 2, which means our WAYP is likely to take a very consistent shape for the first time in eons. We should make the most of the variety this time, then, eh?

Kingdom Hearts fans are in disbelief after finding out we've all missed this blink-and-you-'ll-miss-it moment - despite the fact it's been in the game for the last 18 years. 

EGX 2023 is upon us, and you may recall that RPS is sponsoring the Rezzed Zone this year. That means we'll be tucking into the 50+ indie games that will be there over the coming days, and we can now confirm the full and final line-up of what's going to be on the showfloor. Most of these are only playable at the show, but you may still find some of them have demos available on Steam thanks to this week's Steam Next Fest. In any case, read on below to come and see what's coming up.

I do love a game that tells you upfront what it's about while making nary a lick of sense, and visual novel Stop Burying Me Alive, Beautiful is certainly that. You are, indeed, being buried alive. The person burying you is your girlfriend, who waves aside your protests that you aren't dead yet, pointing out that this is exactly what a dead person would say if they were trying to avoid being buried. Can't fault the logic.

You may have heard of the critically-acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy 14’s free trial that includes a full award-winning expansion. Now try it with two expansions.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage is the latest in Ubisoft’s blockbuster series, and a bit of a throwback to an earlier time for the series. Rather than a big overstuffed RPG, Mirage is more of a traditional action-adventure experience, and as such, some folks more used to recent games like Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and Valhalla may need to adjust slightly.

Insiders claim the canceled shooter was one of Sega's biggest budget projects ever.

Stardew Valley is getting a brand new update at some point in the near future, as creator Eric "Concerned Ape" Barone has been teasing upcoming additions to the game via his personal Twitter account. There are plenty of things that fans are excited about, but the game's queer community thinks that this final update is the perfect opportunity to fix a problem that has existed since launch.
