This Free Steam Game Tricks Players Into Downloading Malware, Users Beware

Steam users are warned about the risks of downloading free games, particularly a compromised title called Beyond The Dark, which was a clone of the horror game Phasmophobia. This game contained malware named UnityPlayer.dll that activated upon launch, targeting saved passwords and cryptocurrency extensions in browsers. Users experienced instability and crashes while the malware operated in the background. It is recommended that those who downloaded the game delete associated files and perform a system scan, changing any potentially compromised passwords. Valve has removed Beyond The Dark from its storefront to prevent further downloads. Users are advised to scrutinize game descriptions, review feedback, and maintain reliable antivirus software to protect their personal information.

Valve moves to dismiss gambling lawsuit against Counter-Strike 2 cases

Valve is facing a lawsuit from New York Attorney General Letitia James, filed in February 2026, which claims that the sale of Cases in Counter-Strike 2 constitutes unregulated gambling aimed at underage players. The lawsuit seeks to stop Valve's promotion of these features and impose financial penalties. Valve argues that opening a Case is similar to purchasing randomized items, a common practice in collectibles, and is urging the court to dismiss the case. The Attorney General is seeking damages amounting to three times Valve's profits from Case sales and a ban on selling these items in New York. Additionally, Valve is involved in a separate lawsuit in the UK regarding competition restrictions imposed on publishers.

I tried playing Fortnite with the Steam Controller, and now all I want to do is watch The Mandalorian and Grogu

A player approached Fortnite to test the Steam Controller while focusing on competitive shooters. They encountered a Mandalorian-themed event that included a watch party for an upcoming movie. The game featured a vibrant introduction with Mandalorian and Grogu, leading to a battle against Stormtroopers on Nevarro. Players watched a short clip from the movie, described as exhilarating with AT-AT-like walkers and explosions, which reignited the player's interest in the Star Wars franchise. However, the player's experience with the Steam Controller was disappointing, as the gyro feature needed adjustments and many buttons did not map correctly, leading them to prefer traditional thumbsticks and aim assist.

Warren Spector’s Thick As Thieves encapsulates the joys of the heist, but I’m not convinced it’ll steal my attention long-term
