🖥 PC, Multi-platformAnother Highly Wishlisted Game Just Moved Its Release Date Up Because Of Subnautica 2
Subnautica 2 finally has a release date(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/subnautica-2-steams-most-wishlisted-game-gets-release-date-amid-publisher-drama/1100-6539722/), and given that it's Steam's No. 1 most-wishlisted game currently, it's expected to command a lot of attention upon release on May 14. One developer, Square Glade Games, is getting out the game's way for its own upcoming release, Outbound. Outbound was previously set to launch on May 14, but Square Glade Games opted to move up Outbound's release date to May 11 to avoid a clash. "Even though we are very hyped for their game and big fans of the franchise, we think that it is best to not compete with such an highly anticipated title on that day," the studio said. "We need to dodge the Leviathan, which means that you can start your road trip on earlier."

🎮 Multi-platformDark And Darker Can "Move Ahead With Full Legal Certainty" After Court Ruling
Darker and Darker(https://www.gamespot.com/games/dark-and-darker/) can continue development and move forward with "full legal certainty," developer Ironmace announced, following a South Korean Supreme Court ruling that upheld a lower court's copyright-dispute ruling and dismissed appeals from both Ironmace and Nexon in what has been a years-long legal battle. Ironmace was founded by former Nexon employees, who Nexon accused of stealing trade secrets related to a canceled Nexon project codenamed "P3" in order to make Dark and Darker. Ironmace stated it never used stolen Nexon assets or code(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/dark-and-darker-dev-tells-fans-no-stolen-assets-or-code-were-used-in-development/1100-6511773/) to create its game. As reported by The Korea Times(https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/business/companies/20260430/supreme-court-sides-with-nexon-in-trade-secret-dispute-with-ironmace), last year, a court ruled Ironmace did infringe on Nexon trade secrets when Ironmace CEO Choi Ju-hyun stored Nexon data on a personal server before establishing the independent studio. The developer was ordered to pay damages, though, importantly, the court also found Ironmace not guilty of copyright infringement. An appellate court later concurred with the first court's ruling, but lowered the amount to be paid to Nexon to 5.7 billion won, or nearly $4 million dollars. South Korea's Supreme Court has now upheld that ruling, seemingly putting an end to issues stemming from Dark and Darker's copyright status.

🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformWith Saros, Housemarque makes a case for doing next-gen games differently
It is generally frowned upon to care too much about appearances.

Should one put a disproportionate effort into how a thing looks, then said work may &8230;

City Of None Is A Metroidvania From A Celeste Co-Creator And It Launches Next Year
!City of None Celeste Co Creator New Metroidvania Platformer Retro Extremely OK Games Noel Liam Berry(https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/bodydefault/public/2026/04/30/f01ab6bf/cityofnoneheader.jpg.webp) Extremely OK Games, the developer/publisher (formerly known as Maddy Makes Games) behind 2018's Celeste(https://gameinformer.com/product/celeste), has revealed City of None(https://exok.com/games/cityofnone/), a new metroidvania platformer launching next year. Celeste co-creator Noel Berry and brother Liam Berry are developing City of None, which sees you control a wooden protagonist as they adventure through a strange city's five sectors. You will venture by train to these five sectors while exploring their various pathways as you meet friendly metropolitan inhabitants and many a foe to defeat. While the movement looks reminiscent of Celeste, City of None is going for an even more retro aesthetic with muted colors and fewer bits. Nonetheless, it looks (and sounds) amazing, and it's a game I'm looking forward to checking out next year. Check out the City of None reveal trailer for yourself below: "Adventure through a metropolis filled with strange spirits, wicked beasts, ferocious robots, and more than one friend as you wrest life – and the city's future – back from the grip of ravenous Barons," the game's description on Steam(https://store.steampowered.com/app/3189450/CityofNone/) reads. It also says players will discover unique items and power-ups that grant new platforming abilities. City of None will launch on PC via Steam sometime in 2027. In the meantime, read Game Informer's Celeste review(https://gameinformer.com/games/celeste/b/xboxone/archive/2018/02/06/celeste-game-informer-review.aspx). Are you interested in City of None?
