Despite Prison Architect being released many moons ago the development team is still working hard on new updates and features, making them officially awesome.
One such update released yesterday and brought with it a brand new temperature system that requires you to keep your inmates warm, but not too warm or they might get disgruntled, as well as a quick-build option and a couple of other features. Here's the developer video going over all the changes and the full patch notes:

The Shadow Moses project was aiming to be a full Metal Gear Solid fan remake developed in Unreal Engine 4.
However, as it so often goes with these fan remakes, it has been promptly shut down once first bits of gameplay footage started appearing. To the developer's credit, they did manage to make a rather faithful adaptation, as you can see in the most recent trailer:

I've attempted to complete Myst without a walkthrough on numerous occasions now but never managed to do so on account of my way of thinking getting in the way of the moon logic Myst intends you for you to use on certain puzzles. You would think I'd hate Myst after going through that whole ordeal but if anything, my love for the game has deepened, even if it makes me feel like a half-wit.
If you share the same position as me (ideally without the whole stupidity aspect) then you'll be delighted to hear that Obduction, the spiritual successor to Myst and Riven, is progressing rather nicely if the latest trailer is any judge. Have a look:

We've had about a month or so to ruminate on the upcoming Hearthstone ranked ladder split and while the announcement was an exciting one it didn't bring with it enough details to truly sate the hunger of news-starved Hearthstone fans.
I'm afraid the same applies for today's "announcement of an announcement" but while Blizzard avoided releasing any actual information they did set a date for when they will finally spill the beans on the new expansion and ladder split.

If the relatively recent Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition got your RPG juices flowing you'll be happy to hear that the brand new expansion titled Siege of Dragonspear is right around the corner.
Siege of Dragonspear is a 25 hour long campaign set between the events of Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2 and represents an excellent reason to once again revisit the Sword Coast. Here's the brief trailer and a bit more info on what exactly to expect from Siege of Dragonspear:

After playing the open beta one of my main issues with The Division was long term appeal and the fact that the content starts to feel a bit stale after you run it over and over again.
Thankfully, it seems that Ubisoft is well aware of these issues as they have announced a whole bunch of free and paid expansions, most of which are focused on extending the "end game". Here's the teaser trailer and what to expect in the coming months:

Paragon is an upcoming third person action MOBA developed by Epic Games and designed from the ground up to follow Dota 2's free to play model. In other words, all of the heroes are free and the cosmetics can be either bought with cash or simply earned through in-game means.
While Paragon might be completely free its early access beta is not, so if you want to be among the first to get in on the action you'll have to grab one of the three Packs filled with skins and other assorted trinkets. Here's how it works:

In a recent press event the folks behind No Man's Sky, Hello Games, announced a couple of new details about their upcoming space explorer.
The most important of which is the crazy release schedule that has No Man's Sky going live on June 21st in North America, June 22nd in Europe and Australia, and June 24th for the UK and the rest of the world. Other than setting a record for "most torrented game of the month" I'm not exactly sure what such a strangely staggered release is supposed to accomplish but then again I don't have a fancy suit.
Here's the info on the pricing & prepurchase offers:

With the May 24th release date for Mirror's Edge: Catalyst slowly creeping over Dice have finally started to release some more information on the upcoming open-world runner (or rather jumper).
Today's trickle of information comes in the form of two new gameplay trailers showcasing movement and combat as well as a bit of information on how it all works. Have a look:

If you're like me and you live in a bundle-less world because you always seem to have exactly 50% of the games thus rendering any discount you might get completely pointless, then I have some good news for you.
In a recent message sent to developers Valve has announced that the option of tiered bundle pricing is now available for use and already in effect for some bundles, such as the complete Valve pack which I can currently buy at ~50% off due to owning 50% of the games in there, as usual.
