D&D’s new turn based tactics PC game should be a delight – but without VR, I’m not finding the fun

Demeo x Dungeons and Dragons: Battlemarked is a cooperative multiplayer strategy game set in D&D's Forgotten Realms, available on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Meta Quest, primarily designed for virtual reality (VR). The game features turn-based strategy gameplay with players choosing from various D&D classes and species, represented as virtual miniatures. It is not a virtual tabletop or a direct adaptation of D&D 5e rules. The graphics are low in polygon count but rich in character, and the game emphasizes quick play sessions without the discomfort of VR-induced nausea. The control scheme reflects its VR origins, requiring players to pick up and place figures, which feels cumbersome on a flat screen compared to other games. The game is set to release on November 20, and the reviewer notes that their experience has been limited to single-player due to illness in the office.

Inzoi’s getting multiplayer after South Korea’s president told the director to hop to it: ‘It almost felt like I was getting talked to by the company’s CEO’

Krafton's life simulation game, Inzoi, was released in early access in March and has struggled to attract a wider audience. Director Hyungjun 'Kjun' Kim announced that the development team is working on integrating multiplayer functionality, inspired by a visit from South Korean President Lee Jae Myung, who provided insights that influenced the decision. While details on the multiplayer feature are not yet available, reactions from the fanbase are mixed, with many players expressing concerns about existing issues in the game that they believe should be prioritized over new features. The potential for multiplayer support could differentiate Inzoi from competitors, as its main rival does not offer co-op gameplay without mods.

Once a promising blend of League of Legends and World of Warcraft, I’m gutted that this new roguelike only lasted a month

Vela Games has announced the closure of its fantasy PvE roguelike title, Evercore Heroes Ascension, just one month after its full release from Early Access. The game will officially shut down on October 30, 2025, at 4 AM PT / 7 AM ET / 11 AM GMT. Despite initial excitement and various development changes, including a shift from a MOBA/MMO hybrid to a co-op roguelike format, the game struggled to maintain player engagement and received a 'Mostly Negative' rating on Steam. Vela decided to eliminate matchmaking and multiplayer features, reducing the experience to a solitary adventure, which disappointed many fans. The developer expressed that they could not sustain the game due to early negative reviews and limited resources.
