Medieval city-builder Manor Lords continues to gather steam ahead of its Early Access release, which is doubly impressive considering its set in a preindustrial society. The game surpassed three million wishlists on Steam over the weekend, adding another 500,000 to the total in the span of seven days.
Created by solo developer Greg Styczeń, also known as Slavic Magic, Manor Lords is a comprehensive and intimate simulation of medieval life. It’s been hotly anticipated since its announcement back in 2020, but the hype has been building rapidly since the start of 2024. Last week, the game officially topped Steam’s wishlist chart, surpassing games like Hades 2 and Hollow Knight: Silksong.
There’s good reason why Manor Lords is so feverishly sought after. Fraser took a walk along the game’s muddy, cart-rutted streets earlier this month, and had a grand old time planning out homes, claiming neighbouring regions, battling bandits, and setting his entire village on an exclu…

The team-based swords-and-sorcery brawler Warhaven launched into early access on Steam on September 20, 2023. Today, just four months later, Nexon has announced that it will be closing down for good in April.
“Today, we are here to announce with a heavy heart that we will be concluding the live services of Warhaven,” Nexon wrote on Steam.
“To create a game that could be cherished and enjoyed over an extended period, we invested much consideration and effort. However, regrettably, we must bid our sincere farewell as of April 5, 2024. We apologize that we could not come to you with better news.”
Warhaven came off like a cross of Chivalry and For Honor when we first looked at it in 2022. It pits teams of 16 players against each other in brawls using blades, bows, and magic, with six different characters bringing unique weapons and abilities to the fight. Players also had the ability to transform into god-like Immortals, granting them devastating powers that, with a li…
A new trailer for upcoming gunpowder and magic action RPG Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has debuted at this year’s PC Gaming Show. It shows protagonist Nor and tricky spirit Enki at work dismembering the undead and other servants of the vicious gods with axes, pistols, bombs, and magical spells. The biggest news is that Flintlock launches later this summer and that a demo will be out during the upcoming Steam Next Fest that’s running from June 10-14.
The new trailer shows blasted landscapes we’re familiar with from previous Flintlock trailers reminiscent of Napoleonic battlefields with trenches, wattle walls, and shell impacts. It also shows some environments we haven’t seen too much of yet, like monster-haunted interiors of ancient temples, colorfully vibrant desert river canyons with lush greenery and ancient ruins, and some very lived-in looking towns of whitewashed walls and red tile roofs.
There’s also plenty of Flintlock’s faster-paced combat on show here. No…
Even if you only give tech news a cursory glance each day, you can’t have missed the fact there’s a lot of concern about the growing use of AI and the demand for tighter regulations. Enter Nick Clegg, Meta’s el presidente of global affairs, to assure us it’s nothing to be worried about, claiming that the fuss is just like how people reacted to video games 40 years ago.
As reported by The Guardian, Clegg starts his point by making an accurate, if somewhat blindingly obvious, observation: “New technologies always lead to hype.” Well, of course. No company is going to spend millions of dollars in research and development, and then not market the heck out of it.
But then the former UK deputy prime minister reminisced further. “I remember the 80s. There was this moral panic about video games. There were moral panics about radio, the bicycle, the internet.” I remember the 1980s, too, though I don’t recall there being much in the way of governments and organisations around the …
