Today, we’re very happy to announce that we have set a release date for Crusader Kings III. The sequel to one of our most beloved grand strategy games will be available on September 1 with Xbox Game Pass for PC (Beta).
In CK3, you guide a royal dynasty through centuries of war, romance and intrigue, always staying a step ahead of enemies, rivals and troublesome relatives. There are thousands of possible starting points for you, from lowly German counts to mighty African kings, and no two games will ever play out the same.
In the seven months since we’ve announced Crusader Kings III, we’ve spent a lot of time talking about the many changes we have made to the game. New 3D portraits and improved character DNA will bring your family to life in ways you’ve never seen before. The map is more detailed and easily understood. Our integrated tooltips and information tabs promise an experience that is more approachable to a wider range of history fans. We’ve also tried to heighten player immersion in a living medieval world..
But we haven’t lost sight of the core experience of Crusader Kings – this is a historical sandbox where you get to write unique stories that will entertain and maybe even light a creative spark. With many new character interactions and game concepts, you will see an infinite number of dramatic lives play out before you as you try to maintain your family’s grip on power.
We are very excited to announce the end date of our royal pilgrimage and look forward to sharing more with you in coming months. Crusader Kings III will be available September 1 with Xbox Game Pass for PC (Beta).

Dear Trovians, a patch of green is now showing on the horizon: Spring has finally sprung in Trove!
But what is this? Our dear Qubesly is speaking in rhymes now. Maybe a little distraction will help him out, we are sure you have got a few tricks up your sleeves! Hurry to the hub and craft some explosive Spring Flingers to shower the Trovian landscape, from the serene sights of the Peacefull Hills to the sun-baked Geode Topside, with some flowery delights. If this bombastic surprise couldn’t cure our dear friend, how about some good old dancing and prancing? Show us your best moves. Shake it up and down and to the ground, because we bet he can’t resist that budded beat. If all of that didn’t hit the spot and brought the sun back into Qubesly’s life, we can only assume there are darker powers at work here. Perhaps this is also the fault of the Daughter of the Moon?
Try to fight off this evil curse and brighten Qubesly’s day by defeating some of the shadowy fiends in their hidden lair.To accompany you on this colorful quest and get you in a rosy mood, we thoughtfully prepared a brand new package: Some florid costumes, gaudy allies and a viridescent mount, as well as some other flamboyant equipment to make your journey through Trove even more fun. After all of your brave effort to help our little companion, how about a relaxing cruise along the shores of Treasure Isle or wherever you like, to rest your head a bit and enjoy the start of Spring.

Trove – Going Green now live! Gardening is now bigger and better than ever. With new ways to craft, new plants to harvest, and new food to eat… It’s time to dig in!
Razmi’s been hard at work inside Ajna’s brain! She’s crafted a series of fiendishly clever challenges that will require Ajna’s unique skills to complete. It’s Indivisible‘s first official DLC and it’s available today!
Razmi’s Challenges include 40 specially crafted levels, each one designed to be more difficult from the last. Solve platforming puzzles and defeat powerful foes in combat using only a limited number of Ajna’s abilities in each challenge.
Perfect your technique, and learn some new ones, as you navigate each cunning construct. You’ll need to combine the skills you know in new ways to succeed. And if you don’t succeed? Razmi will be very pleased with her handiwork.
Razmi’s Challenges’ levels will unlock as you progress through the game. As you learn new abilities, new challenges will unlock. Already deep into the game? Every challenge will be available when you load a recent save. Just head to the Inner Realm and talk to Razmi to get started.
Replay each challenge at any time, as often as you like. Your best completion time is displayed when you finish. Challenge yourself to complete each challenge faster the next time through, or share your time with friends to see who is the quickest!
We are excited to share Razmi’s Challenges with you almost as much as Razmi is excited to see Ajna fail trying to complete them!

There’s a prize at the end of it! Well, Razmi says there is, anyway… Featuring a new comic side-story with Ajna, Razmi and the rest of the cast, forty new bite-sized challenge levels, two new palettes for Ajna and a new set of trophies to score.

Pushy and Pully in Blockland is a cooperative arcade game with a retro feeling. Pushy and Pully are travelling through space when their spaceship breaks. They end up falling into Blockland, a planet full of blocks and monsters. The only way for them to escape is to move from room to room while defeating the monsters, until they find a boss that has a piece of the spaceship. Help Pushy and Pully get back their spaceship on their trip across Blockland. Push blocks to defeat the monsters, join blocks of the same colour to get power ups and defeat the bosses to recover the parts of your broken spaceship.
