Serious Sam is being turned into a run-based roguelite multiplayer shooter later this year, and seriously—this one might not suck

Devolver Digital announced Serious Sam: Shatterverse during the recent Xbox showcase, introducing a run-based multiplayer first-person shooter for up to five players, where each player takes on a different version of Sam in a multiverse affected by the villain, Mental. The game features expansive battlefields and a variety of weapons, maintaining the series' tradition of absurdity. Notably, John J. Dick returns as the voice of Sam.

Croteam supports this collaboration, expressing excitement for a fresh take on the franchise. A release date is yet to be announced, but it is expected later this year, and gamers can wishlist it on Steam. The entire Serious Sam franchise is currently discounted during the Steam Spring Sale.

Warframe’s Shadowgrapher update is out now, and Digital Extremes isn’t scared of your penis drawings

Players navigate an abandoned spaceship in the Chains of Harrow questline in Warframe, experiencing a horror-themed update called Shadowgrapher. The update features a new game mode, Follie's Hunt, where players are stalked by Follie, an ink blot-inspired Warframe, in the eerie Vesper relay. The gameplay is slower and more strategic, contrasting with Warframe's typical fast-paced action, and emphasizes coordination to avoid being caught by Follie. Follie's Shadowgraph ability allows players to summon customizable items, with safeguards in place to manage potential misuse. The Shadowgrapher update also introduces new cosmetics for Gauss and Grendel.

How multiplayer works in Slay the Spire 2

In Slay the Spire 2, co-op gameplay allows one player to host a multiplayer save, with up to three additional players joining as long as they are Steam friends. There are no password-protected lobbies or matchmaking queues. Players must select a save profile with an unlocked character and choose 'Multiplayer' from the main menu. Each player has three profiles, can only host one campaign at a time, and must be present from the beginning of the game. Multiplayer campaigns feature individual inventories, and enemy stats scale with party size. Energy is not shared among players, and loot is distributed individually. Ascension progression in multiplayer is separate from single-player achievements, and players must complete all three acts as a team to earn Ascension levels, which apply to all characters in multiplayer.
