A fair bit of time has gone by since Satisfactory's Update 5, so it should come as little surprise to hear that the newly unleashed Update 6 is quite the chunky one! It brings with it a massive rework of the Spire Coast biome, a variety of visual enhancements for the Swamp biome, as well as a boom box that can also double as a powerful weapon if you can figure out a way to overcharge it!
You can also expect to see an assortment of ammunition types for your ranged weaponry, including fancy things like homing bullets for the rifle. And if you want to go completely absurd, there's even a mini nuke to play around with. I'm sure that's never going to end in disaster for everyone involved!
Overwatch inspired Gundam Evolution has now landed onto PC, though only in some countries

Much like Overwatch from which it draws a great deal of inspiration, Gundam Evolution is a 6v6, objective-based shooter where each mech brings with it a unique assortment of weapons and abilities to mess around with. As such, success is less about pure aiming prowess and more about knowing how to best utilize the synergies between your team's mechs in order to push back your opponents and secure objectives.
Since purely talking about an FPS game is a bit of a pointless endeavor, allow me to share with you the launch trailer. That should give you a pretty good idea of just what Gundam Evolution is trying to do, as well as what types of mechs you'll be able to pilot. Have a look:
Dune: Spice Wars update has added a brand new faction - the imperial House Corrino

[Update]: Dune: Spice Wars has now launched from Early Access alongside mixed reviews, mostly because the previously teased story-focused campaign has not been implemented.
Things are about to heat up in Dune: Spice Wars as Shaddam IV, the 81st Padishah Emperor, has decided enough is enough. He has now personally arrived onto Arrakis to sort the whole mess out, bringing with him highly advanced technology, legions of powerful Sardaukar warriors, and a considerable amount of political weight to throw around.
When it comes to the actual gameplay, the most exciting thing about the newly unleashed House Corrino is that they can deploy two main bases! You'll need to reach 5000 hegemony to be able to do that, but needless to say, being able to have a second main base close to your opponents is something well worth pursuing.
Hyper Demon is a psychedelic and completely over-the-top FPS from the Devil Daggers team

If you're in the mood for a shooter that defies any and all expectations, you might want to give the freshly released Hyper Demon a try. It comes to us from the team behind the simplistic yet highly focused Devil Daggers, and much like its predecessor Hyper Demon is all about taking a couple of very simple gameplay mechanics and creating some incredibly tight gameplay around them.
What makes Hyper Demon so bizarre, however, is that it uses spherical projection to give you a massive peripheral vision without shrinking the center of the screen. Combine that with a holographic warning system that lets you know when you're being attacked, and you end up with a game that looks like complete and utter chaos. Yet despite how insane it all looks, it actually makes a surprising amount of sense once you really get into it and embrace the madness.

If you've had your fill of minor events and challenges, you might want to mark November 10th on your calendar as that's when Dying Light 2's very first story-focused DLC Bloody Ties will be launching. The highlight of the expansion is a massive arena where you can fight against hordes of enemies in twisted recreations of classic fables, and if you're itching for something a bit more difficult, even highly mutated monstrosities in special trials.
Along the way you'll get to explore a brand new area, mess around with the new Shield Glove weapon, and as is tradition, obtain all sorts of fancy gear and weapons to spruce up your build. As for the story, much of it is currently shrouded in mystery, but what I can tell you is that you will be helping your new friend Ciro in his quest to avenge his brother's death and discover what sort of dark secrets lie at the heart of the tournament.
MultiVersus' next character will be none other than Rick Sanchez

[Update]: MultiVersus Patch 1.03 has added Rick Sanchez and doubled exp requirements for early character levels
When Morty first made his way to MultiVersus back in August, all signs were clearly pointing towards Rick following suit shortly afterwards. However, the MultiVersus team decided to go in a bit of a different direction by first releasing Gizmo from Gremlins as a part of a surprise update!
A few weeks have gone by since then, and I'm pleased to say that Rick is now finally getting ready to make his big debut. No exact release date has been announced just yet, though you can expect to see Rick Sanchez arrive in the near future.
Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales will be swinging onto PC in Fall 2022

[Update]: The release date has finally been announced! You can expect to see Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales land onto Steam and the Epic Games Store on November 18th.
Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered landed onto PC back in August, and unlike some of the previous PlayStation ports like Horizon Zero Dawn, it did so with fully polished gameplay and very few technical issues. Given its massive success, it really shouldn't come as too much of a surprise to hear that Sony is now bringing the follow-up game onto PC as well!
Once it arrives at some point in Fall 2022, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales will bring with it a brand new storyline to explore, a variety of new powers and attacks to help spice up the gameplay, and naturally, a whole bunch of new locations to swing around... or into! Here's a small teaser of what all of this looks like in action on PC:
