Survival Games

Palworld dev isn’t impressed by "so-called" AAA, prefers indies since they "include the kind of systems you can’t find in other games": "AAA titles are overwhelmingly about graphic quality and fidelity"

Hytale early access release date set for January 2026 just weeks after it's reacquired by original founders, following 5 years and cancellation at Riot: "If you don’t feel comfortable pre-ordering, please don't"

Palworld publisher vows to "keep leveraging" the success of the survival game to "help cool people make cool games," like this fantasy looter-shooter made by a small team

Well darn, Hello Games' Sean Murray says the team working on No Man's Sky follow-up Light No Fire is "tiny" and working "in the background"

After miracle revival, Hytale head "now assembling a dedicated team" to satisfy fans of a key genre that's only grown since the Minecraft-inspired game's reveal: cozy and farming games like Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing

Palworld gets a nod of approval from No Man's Sky lead as Pocketpair devs celebrate "both Steam ratings" finally becoming overwhelmingly positive: "We'll keep on trying our best"

Palworld lead gently reminds players the next update is not "massive," since "mammoth sized 1.0" is still a long way off: "I think you've misunderstood"

No, it's not just you – Dune: Awakening NPCs really did become harder as Funcom admits to "undocumented changes" in the survival MMO's last big update, says "we will revert it"

Palworld's collaboration with ultraviolent retro FPS Ultrakill was spurred on by the survival game's weapon designer, who is a huge fan, so Pocketpair "asked nicely"

Pocketpair dates Palworld's second collab, this time with hugely-acclaimed FPS Ultrakill, and again teases a Legendary Pal first shown off years ago for 1.0

Minecraft player redefines sadness with the world's worst challenge, living in an inhospitable wasteland with only one Bonus Chest of items: "I think we can work with this"

Hytale is priced so "aggressively low" that its returning owner is "taking on a considerable personal risk," but "charging more didn't feel right" because "I don't think the game is good yet"

As Dune: Awakening grapples with "Mixed" reviews and a dip in players, Funcom offers a free trial for the survival MMO alongside "the highest discount we've had yet"

Rust dev shoots down hopes of playing the hit survival game on Valve's Steam Machine: "There are no plans to support Proton or Linux"

"I'm not going to recoup what I put into this for a long time," says returning Hytale owner, who previously said he'd offered Riot 10x what the dead Minecraft-inspired game is worth
