  • New Hero Midnight Rush Skadi enters the fray
  • Feed your competitive streak with new Real-Time Arena PvP

Outerplane, the hit strategy RPG from Major9, has reached a massive milestone as it celebrates its third anniversary. The anime-style mobile smash has crossed the threshold of 300,000 global registrations for its 3rd anniversary update that just landed today as it cruises into this major landmark.

To thank its community, the publisher is rolling out a celebratory update loaded with highly requested player improvements, gameplay additions, and a wave of new features.

Chief among them is the introduction of a new Limited Anniversary Hero: Midnight Rush Skadi. Stepping away from her traditional battlefield appearance, Skadi returns under a stylish ‘phantom thief’ guise, reclassifying herself as an extra-robust Fire-element bruiser.

Her re-engineered skill kit is meticulously tuned to withstand high-impact boss encounters without giving up any offensive power. Players can put her capabilities to the test in the newly introduced Event Story, ‘The Price of a Perfect Heist’, which sees her partner with Ray for a high-stakes operation that quickly unravels into a widespread conspiracy.

Major9 isn't holding back on the community freebies for this milestone, launching a series of events built around distributing premium currencies and valuable progression materials. These range from Bingo Missions, where rare loot is up for grabs, to casual mini-games for those short on time. There are also daily login rewards for everyone throughout.

For players with a competitive streak, the Real-Time Arena PvP 2nd Beta will be a highlight. Expanding on the previous beta in April, the updated system splits competitive matchmaking into two separate environments to prove your skills. The first is the Tactics League, which creates a level playing field for the entire community by forcing everyone to compete using preset characters, with Core Fusion Heroes playable this Beta. For seasoned veterans, the Masters League offers a hardcore battlefield featuring a live ban-and-pick phase where players deploy their own maxed-out squads.

The update also expands upon the game's core appeal by rolling out advanced character interaction mechanics to deepen your connection with your roster. Via the newly integrated Bond and Chat systems, players can engage directly with their heroes through branching dialogue choices and interactive touch controls. These structural updates also expand the existing Affinity system and introduce quality-of-life adjustments to individual Side Stories, aiming to make character relationships feel more meaningful than before.

With over 300,000 players already locked in for the celebration, Outerplane's third anniversary marks an ideal entry point for newcomers and a great moment for lapsed players to jump back in. It’s available to download as a free-to-play title on the iOS App Store and Google Play right now.

Game of Thrones: Dragonfire ties into season three finale with limited-time event

After the disastrous reception of the Game of Thrones finale way back in 2019, it seemed as if the franchise was done on television.

And if you've been following House of the Dragon, you can now enjoy a limited-time event, available until August 24th, set to tie into the season three finale of the show. This event will see all the previously limited dragons return to the Hatchery, each modelled on their appearance in the show. ...

Lil' Guardsman is a Papers Please-style deduction adventure with you as an unlikely town guard📱 Mobile

Lil' Guardsman is a Papers Please-style deduction adventure with you as an unlikely town guard

While Papers, Please invoked a really grim and dystopian style of gaming, for better or for worse, many other developers have taken a slightly lighter view on the subject. Case in point: the upcoming deductive sim Lil' Guardsman, which is set to release on iOS and Android this winter, puts you in the shoes of the bane of all adventurers. In Lil' Guardsman, you play as the twelve-year-old Lil, tasked with covering your father's shift as, unsurprisingly, a guardsman at the gate of a city called the Sprawl. You'll need to interrogate various visitors, ranging from wizards to cyclopes, and decide whether to let them in, jail them or deal with them in some other way. ...

Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls set to close service in autumn📱 Mobile

Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls set to close service in autumn

Well, it's about that time again. Yes, sadly we have to report that another fan-favourite mobile game is set to shut its doors. This time, the victim is none other than Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls. And unfortunately, you don't have long to jump in and have a go, because end-of-service is set for September 3rd. A side-scrolling platformer in the vein of the classic Castlevania games, especially Symphony of the Night, Grimoire of Souls already has an interesting history. Slated to shutter back in 2020, Grimoire of Souls would instead make its way exclusively to Apple Arcade without any monetisation elements. ...
