Will you like Outbound if you like crafting games?

Outbound is a game that combines crafting and exploration, allowing players to travel the countryside in a camper while focusing on camping and building a mobile base. The game features a building system that encourages players to find ideal camping spots and decorate their space, although the crafting system is simplistic and lacks depth. Players may find the resource gathering and crafting aspects tedious, especially due to slow movement speed and stamina constraints. The game imposes a structured pace through blueprint unlocks and objectives, which can limit the sense of freedom. While base building is enjoyable, it may not provide enough depth for long-term engagement. The multiplayer experience is limited, as players do not have their own vans and progression is not character-specific, leading to a less engaging experience for those not actively driving.

May’s big Rust update adds new, rare workbench upgrades, if you can find them

The latest update for Rust, titled "Upgrade Hard, Raid Harder," introduces mortars to combat rooftop camping and features nine rare workbench upgrades that enhance gameplay. Players can apply these upgrades from the workbench inventory, and they are not mutually exclusive. Mortars function similarly to cannons and require players to gauge distance and angle without a visual guide, with two types of shells available. Tin can alarms have been improved to accommodate various warning signals, and the vending machine interface has been redesigned for easier use. Loot distribution in the Deep Sea area has been adjusted, and drag has increased for boats with flat bows. Third-person grenade-throwing animations have been refined, and the computer station now requires power. New achievements related to the Naval update and Deep Sea zone have been added, and a Discord shop has been launched, offering a 20% discount on DLC. Facepunch is upgrading to Unity 6, which will discontinue support for Windows 8 and require server hosts to upgrade to Windows Server 2019.

Steam’s Most-Wishlisted Games Forced Into Early Release As Subnautica 2 Pulls A Hollow Knight: Silksong

Developers are adjusting their release schedules due to the impending launch of major titles like GTA 6 and Hollow Knight: Silksong. The release date for Hollow Knight: Silksong in September 2025 has caused over eight games to delay their launches, with some moving to November and others, like Aeterna Lucis, postponing until 2026. The early access release of Subnautica 2, confirmed for May 14, has led other games, including Outbound, to change their release dates. Outbound, originally set for May 14, will now launch on May 11 for Steam and Xbox, while keeping May 14 for Epic Games Store and PlayStation.

Neo Scavenger is a roguelike survival game released in 2014, set in a post-apocalyptic Michigan. Players awaken in an abandoned research facility and must navigate a hex-based landscape while uncovering their character's identity.

The narrative explores moral ambiguity as players may pursue other survivors for resources.

Rust’s ‘Pivot or Die’ update was meant to shake up the meta, but it’s a nightmare for solo survivors that leaves me no choice but to die

Facepunch has released an update for Rust, urging players to adapt to significant changes in the game's progression system, particularly affecting solo players and smaller groups. The update introduced a "soft progression gate" to encourage early confrontations and reduce clan dominance. Changes include the addition of Basic and Advanced Blueprint Fragments to workbench recipes, making resource accumulation more challenging and incentivizing combat. New loot refresh times at monuments have led to players camping these locations, causing further scarcity of resources. The November update adjusted puzzle timers to prevent pausing due to player proximity and introduced lethal radiation before loot resets. This has made it harder for solo players and small groups to compete, as they remain limited to lower-tier workbenches while larger clans advance more rapidly. The gameplay has shifted towards a more combat-focused experience, resembling a battle royale format, which some players find less appealing. Unofficial servers may provide a more balanced experience.

Steam’s biggest survival game warns players must “pivot or die” as transformative new update unleashes an extreme wipe

Facepunch Studios released the November Rust update, emphasizing a "Pivot or die" approach. The update revamps the progression system by introducing a comprehensive wipe of all blueprints and reducing the costs for tech tree and research unlocks: Common from 20 to 15, Uncommon from 75 to 30, Rare from 125 to 60, and Very Rare from 500 to 120. Scrap crafting costs have been removed from workbenches. The update also introduces new features such as powered Storage Adaptors, a Mini Fridge with 18 slots, expanded CCTV integration, and the return of monument puzzles. Adjustments have been made to helicopters, including the inability to repair in-flight and restrictions on using healing foods while piloting. The painting menu has been revamped, and off-ground foliage now reacts to moving objects. Regular blueprint wipes may be considered based on player feedback.
