🖥 PlayStation, Xbox, PC, Multi-platformLong-Awaited Co-Op Zombie Game Is Finally Arriving Next Month
Though No More Room In Hell 2(https://www.gamespot.com/games/no-more-room-in-hell-2/) has been playable via Steam and Epic's early-access programs for a while now, the 1.0 build is finally on the way, and it'll coincide with the game's launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. All of this arrives on August 11. The first-person zombie game is played on large, semi-open maps and built for teams of up to eight players. If you never played the original, think Left 4 Dead(https://www.gamespot.com/games/left-4-dead/), but slower and much harder. It's also less of a shooter than that genre titan, because making noise is sure to attract trouble you're better off avoiding with the use of the game's many melee weapons. Each round plays like a run with your chosen character, and you'll progress as you survive round after round--or you'll die mid-round (and permanently) and turn into a fast-moving zombie that chases down the team you left behind. The stakes are high. The game has seen its ups and downs so far on PC, as the team at Torn Banner (Chivalry 2) has tried to strike a balance in the game's difficulty while adding polish. This has resulted in only a "Mixed" rating from Steam users right now, but a lot of those issues have always seemed like growing pains to me, and hopefully these wrinkles are ironed out for the 1.0 release. !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/NMRIH2-Zombie-Combat-–-3840x2160300dpi.png?w=636) !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/NMRIH2-Subway-–-3840x2160300dpi.png?w=636) !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/NMRIH2-Squad-–-3840x2160300dpi.png?w=636) !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/NMRIH2-Hospital-–-3840x2160300dpi.png?w=636) !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/NMRIH2-Extraction-–-3840x2160300dpi.jpg?w=636) !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/NMRIH2-Dismemberment-–-3840x2160300dpi.jpg?w=636) For what it may be worth, I love zombie games as much as anyone, and I've had a lot of fun with this one. I've only not sunk many more hours into it yet because I've been waiting for this 1.0 version. Based on what I've played in the past, I already count No More Room In Hell 2 as one of the best zombie games(https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/best-zombie-games-of-all-time/2900-4873/), and I'm hoping the 1.0 build further cements it in that conversation. New with this upcoming build is a risk-free solo mode, which doesn't apply the game's permadeath system you'll have to contend with otherwise, as well as a training ground so you can learn the game before you put your character on the line. There's also a new wave-based Survival mode that some players tried out during a free weekend preview earlier this year. Several maps have been expanded, and character customization will be deeper than you're used to if you've played any of the game's earlier versions. No More Room In Hell 2 will feature cross-play for all systems, and the team has addressed "over 8,000 bugs" for the 1.0 launch. It'll go for $30 with preorders and "launch" period sale pricing on offer for those who jump in early.

🖥 PlayStation, Xbox, PC, Multi-platformCrimson Desert Gets Cross-Save Support Today
!Crimson Desert Pearl Abyss PlayStation PS5 Pro Comparison Xbox Series X/S PC Performance Quality Balanced FPS(https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/bodydefault/public/2026/03/20/e882be8a/crimsondesert.jpg.webp) A new update for Crimson Desert adds cross-save today. This means that if you own the RPG on multiple platforms, you can now transfer save data between those versions. Naturally, using cross-save requires players to own two or more versions of Crimson Desert on the following platforms: PS5, Xbox Series X/S, or PC via Steam or the Epic Games Store. You’ll need to have a Pearl Abyss ID for each owned copy of the game, and you’ll need to link these accounts to initiate cross-save. A new cross-save icon now appears in Crimson Desert’s in-game save data menu, which will begin the setup process as detailed in an FAQ(https://account.pearlabyss.com/en-US/Member/Signin?state=pGnPvbJ8lBzKAfodyZmQWSoMhAmSXSkXt7Q81zhfClcvJq8LWpMnFBcpX0gg6FBUGrGQAspQyepDoAz5IH2p+KQtdDrkgAxLq0d9t4RiH2l3Tb90KaiZ%2fy00n3tHUUU03GdbCYRI5uMJAsFl1ccfHrlaeSgx1KUrSVHL4ICGWUO7KnavPnITYx7YUMkjeZJhZhXeMhtjGIt7ZiHaC+ka7sVkhjTiLIEHTHcqbSBUDC1z7ihPUyKg185EU3GL9Mir7+VPGLDBB+7dRRDdjUUZ3elffMsNMAGUoHhmDIdrI1IY2Ok6WpelHJ7iOAxMOF5hQ2hJMsKV2pN9iSu8vOktMxAm5cL5hFsKDxShozaxfZE%3d&authPlatform=1&authAction=6&sessionTicket=&returnUrl=https%3a%2f%2faccount.pearlabyss.com%2fen-US%2fMember%2fSignin%2fEndAuthentication). Crimson Desert is also available on Mac, but developer Pearl Abyss states that this version will not receive cross-save support until a future update. The addition of cross-saves is one of many major overhauls Pearl Abyss has planned for Crimson Desert as part of its post-launch update roadmap. One of the biggest changes will be to the game’s often-criticized narrative.

🖥 PlayStation, Xbox, PC, Multi-platformAssassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Has The Best Launch The Series Has Seen In Years
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced isn't just the best-reviewed game in the series(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/assassins-creed-black-flag-resynced-delivers-the-series-best-reviews-since-2013/) in 13 years; it's also off to a flying start with more than 100,000 players(https://store.steampowered.com/charts/mostplayed) on Steam alone. That's one of the highest opening weeks for an Assassin's Creed game in several years, and the number doesn't include Black Flag Resynced's availability through other PC storefronts, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, either. One thing to note is that not every Assassin's Creed game has been available through Steam at launch, but Black Flag Resynced's performance can still be compared to recent releases. Assassin's Creed Odyssey peaked at 62,049 players during its launch week, and Assassin's Creed Shadows reached 64,825 players when it first hit the scene last year. Assassin's Creed Valhalla is something of an anomaly, as it wasn't available at launch(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/ubisoft-is-back-on-steam-with-assassins-creed-valhalla-launching-december-6/1100-6509353/) through Steam. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niSS6zePbYs&t=2s When Ubisoft did return to Steam(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/ubisoft-games-could-be-returning-to-steam/1100-6508931/) after a gap of several years, it peaked at 15,679 players on launch day--two years after it first launched on PC and console--and it later surpassed that number(https://steamdb.info/app/2208920/charts/max) in January 2026 with 19,181 players. For Black Flag Resynced, those are some impressive launch week numbers--even if they do pale in comparison to the similarly themed pirate game Windrose, which reached more than 220,000 peak concurrent users(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/pirate-game-windrose-sells-1-million-copies-passes-200000-concurrents-on-steam/1100-6539495/) on Steam during its launch week in April. While there's plenty to celebrate, several Black Flag Resynced developers at Ubisoft Barcelona(https://insider-gaming.com/assassins-creed-black-flag-resynced-layoffs/) are also facing layoffs following the game's launch. Part of the cuts that Ubisoft initiated in June, around 51 developers will be impacted, while Black Flag Resynced is expected to be a big seller for Ubisoft during a lean year of releases from the company.

🖥 PlayStation, Xbox, PC, Multi-platformAMD’s FSR Upscaling 4.1 Comes To Older GPUs, Steam Machine And Xbox ROG Ally Support On The Way
AMD has announced that owners of RDNA 3 GPUs can now enjoy the benefits offered by its latest version of AI-powered upscaling, FSR 4.1. This comes a few weeks earlier than its July estimate, with the promise for more devices down the line, too. FSR Upscaling 4.1 functions similarly to other upscaling technologies on the market, and comes much closer to the performance and quality of Nvidia's market-leading DLSS than previous iterations. It's the same technology that underpins the PlayStation 5 Pro's PSSR 2(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/ps5-pros-upgraded-pssr-is-rolling-out-today-here-are-the-first-games-getting-it/1100-6538811/), with Sony layering on its own work on top of what AMD has engineering here. https://twitter.com/jackhuynh/status/2069059207383720091 The upscaling suite was previously exclusive to the company's latest GPUs, the RX 9070 and 9070 XT, but will now be available to many, many more RDNA 3 GPUs, such as the popular 7800XT and XTX. You'll need the latest version of AMD's Adrenalin software, which you can grab here(https://www.amd.com/en/resources/support-articles/release-notes/RN-RAD-WIN-26-6-2.html). Devices with RDNA 3.5 APUs, such as Valve's Steam Machine(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/steam-machine-price-and-release-date-officially-confirmed-by-valve/) and the Xbox ROG Ally X, will eventually get FSR 4.1 support, with AMD working on lightweight AI models specific to the lower memory bandwidth of these and similar devices. AMD has also committed to supporting even older RDNA 2 cards with FSR 4.1 sometime in 2027. That, unfortunately, isn't likely to include the one in Valve's Steam Deck, which might have given more life to the aging, and now more expensive(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/steam-deck-gets-massive-price-hike/), handheld gaming PC.
🖥 PlayStation, Xbox, PC, Multi-platformThis $1,000 Steam Game Offers Very Little, But At Least It’s Honest About It
With people wondering if GTA 6 preorders will kickstart a new $80 era(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/80-games-are-already-here/) for standard edition PS5 and Xbox Series X|S games, one new release on Steam already has Rockstar Games beat: Congratulations On Your Purchase. The new red carpet-simulator launched not too long ago, and it can be yours for the mere price of $1,000. Designed to be a "first-person luxury experience" set inside a palace, the Steam listing(https://store.steampowered.com/app/4693030/CongratulationsOnYourPurchase/) says that players can expect a red carpet, a chandelier, and a velvet rope barrier to protect them from "the wrong kind" of people. As for the gameplay, there is no combat, no enemies, no quests, no skill trees, and one box that contains only the feeling of having arrived somewhere important. Developer Minimal Viable Prestige is also brutally honest about what you can expect from their debut game. "You paid for this. Not accidentally. Not on impulse. You saw the price. You read the description. And then you bought it anyway. Welcome." !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Congrats.jpg?w=1024) For $1,000, I was expecting character models not to look squished. Of course, players are protected, just in case they take a bad stumble near their PC, open up Steam, input their credit card details, and then click through several confirmation pages during their fall. Steam's refund policy allows for a game to be returned, provided that it hasn't been played for more than two hours or owned for more than two weeks. Congratulations On Your Purchase might be expensive, but several other special editions of games have also been priced high over the years while offering more content overall in comparison. This $750 Stylish Edition of Resident Evil 6 came with a wearable replica of Leon S. Kennedy's leather jacket, and an $800 Assassin's Creed Origins collector's edition was limited to just 1,000 units. If you had cash burning a hole in your pocket for a publicity stunt, there was the $190,000 edition of Grid 2 that included an actual car, one Dying Light player could get a custom-built zombie apocalypse shelter(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/386-000-dying-light-special-edition-announced/1100-6425493/), and Saints Row 4 even offered to send you to space if you purchased the one-of-a-kind $1 million special edition(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/1-million-saints-row-iv-edition-revealed/1100-6412754/).

Then check out our favorite recommendations from the recent Steam Next Fest(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/steam-next-fest-june-2026-25-of-the-best-demos-you-can-play-right-now/). All the demos are free to play, and we're pretty certain that each game won't be too expensive when they eventually launch in full.
