Disappointingly, at least for me, there's a third part of the news. Thankfully, it's short:
Pirate stealth game Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew gets surprise modding tool

Mimimi's swan song was supposed to be the two DLCs it released earlier this month for Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew—Yuki's Wish and Zagan's Ritual. But the studio dedicated to stealth tactics games has one last parting gift before closing its doors altogether.
Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew now has a modding tool for creating your own levels. This level editor lets you spawn NPCs, place objects, set interactions and animations, create patrol routes, and write dialogue boxes to make your own story moments.
Dyson Sphere Program's Dark Fog are here to blow up your space factories

Dyson Sphere Program is one of the best factory-building games out there, and it has picked up a lot of interesting features during its trek through early access development—but now the biggest game-changer of the planned features has hit. Rise of the Dark Fog, the update that adds an interplanetary menace to your game, has arrived.
Atomic Heart's next DLC looks even weirder, and will be out in February

When a game has multiple endings, that can cause problems for post-ending DLC. Do you canonize one ending, which risks alienating players who chose a different one? Make the story vague enough that it could follow on from any of the endings, which can mean tying yourself into narrative knots? Rewrite the ending and provide a whole new one, like Fallout 3 did with Broken Steel?
Atomic Heart has chosen the road less-traveled. The sci-fi FPS has completely separate DLC for each of its endings. The previous DLC, Annihilation Instinct, sent you back into the mysterious Facility 3826 and built on the lore around its fan-favorite sexy fridge, but the next DLC, Trapped in Limbo, goes somewhere even stranger than that.
No game captured what it's like being online in 2023 like Honkai: Star Rail

My Steam folder is stuffed with screenshots of Honkai: Star Rail. Every time I log in there's a new text message from one of the characters that I immediately have to share with everyone I know. Usually they message me to say hi and update me on what they've been doing since I last ran into them. One of the characters called me "Fam" and then asked me for career advice. Another one entered a group chat to greet everyone in full, grammatically correct sentences, and then signed off with a GIF of sparkling roses like a mom on Facebook.
I get to respond to all these messages as Star Rail's main character Stelle, who might be the most me a videogame protagonist has ever been. She lives to annoy her pals with deadpan humor and non sequiturs. She's the kind of girl who will say your photos look nice before you've even sent them just to see your reaction.
Please excuse my bad English.
