Closed Beta Registration Now Open for Vibrant Afro-Brazilian Mythology-based Roguelite Talaka

Publisher Acclaim and Brazilian indie studio Potato Kid today announced that registration is now open for the Talaka Closed Beta, giving players an opportunity for an early look at this fast-paced, combat-driven roguelite that brings Afro-Brazilian mythology to life in a vivid, hand-painted world. You can register for the Talaka Closed Beta now on the official PlayAcclaim Discord Server.

Players interested in participating in the Talaka closed beta can register from July 8th through July 16th. 

To register for the beta, PlayAcclaim Discord users should navigate to the #talaka-beta-request channel on the PlayAcclaim Discord server and send a message requesting access to the Closed Beta. Then, a member of the PlayAcclaim team will assign them a role in the Talaka Closed Beta Discord channel and grant them access to the game and provide further info when the beta begins on July 16.

The two-week Closed Beta runs from July 16th through July 30th, giving players access to Talaka’s first couple of worlds, where they’ll battle their way through corrupted spirits, twisted legends, and celestial beasts.

“We are so excited to get feedback from players in this beta. At Potato Kid, we strongly believe that as a studio the only way to accomplish our goal of delivering an outstanding game is by listening carefully to players during development,” said Paulo Luis Santos, studio head & founder of Potato Kid. “We have been deep down in development for quite some time, and it’s easy to get tunnel vision. We are confident  that fresh perspectives from gamers will go a long way in polishing and improving Talaka, making it the best it can be.”

“As Roguelite players ourselves, we know that balancing can make or break a game like this – and we are eager to get data and feedback to iterate on it and make the game feel fair in the early, mid and late stages.”

To celebrate the announcement, Acclaim and Potato Kid have shared a new trailer, offering a look at what players can expect as they take their first steps into Talaka’s vibrant, watercolor realm teeming with ancient gods, mighty monsters, and powerful magic.

First revealed at last year’s PlayAcclaim Showcase, Talaka is a fast-paced, combat-driven roguelite that brings Afro-Brazilian mythology to life in a vivid, hand-painted world.

Players take on the role of a young warrior who once believed in the old legends — the stories of Orisha gods, mystical creatures, and ancient realms. But as time passed, the myths faded. Forgotten by the world, the legends have begun to unravel, twisting into chaos and breaking the harmony between worlds.

Now, players must journey across dreamlike landscapes, reconnect with divine forces, and uncover why the myths have gone rogue. With the Orisha by their side, they’ll fight to restore balance before the stories vanish forever.

Talaka will launch on Steam and modern platforms in early 2027. For more information, visit the game’s official website.

Codename CURE II Set To Launch on Steam July 24th, Bringing a Day-One DLC Pack

Free-to-play cooperative first-person shooter Codename CURE II that drops five-player squads into the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse, is set to launch on Steam July 24th, 2026. Developed by Raptor Byte and published by indie.io, it arrives alongside the Combat Specialist Pack, a $9.99 DLC discounted 20% at launch that adds new weapons, attachments, and military-inspired cosmetics for every class. Players curious to get a head start can already try the game’s core mechanics and co-op gameplay through the demo, currently live on Steam.

Codename CURE II places you in the boots of an elite military squad tasked with executing a dangerous plan to eliminate a zombie scourge. Assembling a team of up to five soldiers, you and your squad will tackle dynamic objective-based missions, fighting through hordes of infected with a dynamic gore system that reacts to every encounter, scavenging for resources to fuel your arsenals and adapting to the ever-changing threats of a post-apocalyptic world. Tactical coordination and resource management are key to survival against overwhelming odds in this class-based shooter, where even the AI enemies adapt to the gear your squad has unlocked.

The game also distinguishes itself with flexible playstyles and accessibility in mind. While built for online co-op, Codename CURE II supports offline play with AI bots, letting solo players experience the full campaign without needing a team. Adjustable difficulty settings and custom volume controls round out an experience designed to welcome players of different needs and preferences.

Key features:

  • Five-Player Co-operative Action: Assemble a squad of up to five friends or play offline with AI bots to tackle intense missions together.
  • Dynamic Objective Missions: Navigate procedurally generated scenarios where no two mission runs are ever the same, demanding fresh strategic thinking and teamwork every time.
  • Resource Scavenging: Search the environment for supplies to customize and upgrade weapons, ensuring your squad is ready for any encounter.
  • Class-Based Combat: Choose from five distinct player classes, each offering unique abilities to complement different tactical approaches.

Squads looking to gear up further can pick up the Combat Specialist Pack, launching alongside the base game at $9.99 with a 20% discount at launch. The pack adds new firearms, tactical attachments, and cosmetic gear, giving players new ways to customize their loadout from day one.

Codename CURE II follows the original Codename CURE, which reached over two million players on Steam. The sequel rebuilds that experience with modern tools and expanded systems, while keeping its focus on cooperative gameplay, replayability, and mission-driven action against the infected.

“In making Codename CURE II, we wanted to recapture what made the original so fun, but modernize and improve upon pretty much everything. From dynamic gore systems to additional enemy types, cool but limited features present in the first game, such as maps having pre-set branching paths, evolved here into a full procedural generation system where no two mission runs are ever the same. Each class now has a full selection of weapon and attachment options, more competent/believable AI systems which even utilise the gear you have unlocked when filling roles. After many years of development, we’re very excited to get this into the hands of gamers, both existing fans and new players alike,” said Raptor Byte. 

Codename CURE II launches free-to-play on Steam July 24, 2026.

Sci-Fi Idle RPG Lost Vessel launches free-to-play July 6th

Indie studio Lazy Frog Games has announced that its sci-fi idle RPG Lost Vessel launches free-to-play on July 6, 2026 on Steam (Windows and Steam Deck) and in any web browser at lost-vessel.com. Built by a solo developer over months of weekly updates with a live community, Lost Vessel is an idle game designed around a simple contrarian idea: the grind should lead you toward other players, not leave you alone with a spreadsheet.

Most idle games end with you watching numbers climb by yourself, forever. Lost Vessel spends its early game building deep solo progression – skills, a melee/ranged/void combat triangle, a forge with rare legendary procs, mastery tracks, prestige, and body-mod implants – and then pours all of it into a cooperative endgame: shared expeditions, a server-wide world boss, and faction construction projects that unlock new content for everyone.

Key features:

  • Idle-to-co-op, not idle-to-lonely. Your solo progression feeds a genuine cooperative endgame instead of trailing off into an empty number-go-up loop.
  • Free forever, cosmetic-only. The entire game is free, every system, no paywalls and no quality-of-life locked behind a wall. Optional Supporter Packs are purely cosmetic. There is no pay-to-win, ever.
  • One save, everywhere. Play in a browser tab, continue on Steam or a Steam Deck. The same account and progress travel with you across every device.
  • Start in seconds, no signup. Guest accounts let players drop straight in with no account wall; register later only if you want to.
  • PvP that doesn’t grief. Opt-in Faction War lets players compete for territory without losing their progress to punishing invasions.
  • Real depth for the idle crowd. Multiple gathering and crafting skills, deterministic daily bounties, a legendary forge, prestige (Reawakening), implants, and hundreds of achievements, all built on a “benefit if you idle, come out ahead if you play active” design.

“Every idle game I loved eventually left me alone with a spreadsheet,” said Simon Haberl, founder of Lazy Frog Games. “I wanted to find out if all that solo progression could pour into something you do with people instead. That’s the whole reason Lost Vessel exists.”

Availability:

Lost Vessel launches July 6, 2026, free-to-play on Steam (Windows + Steam Deck) and browser.

Incremental x Infinite Progression Roguelite “Limitless Survivor” Will Launch July 24th

Indie studio Tam Lab has announced that the incremental x infinite progression roguelite Limitless Survivor will officially launch on Steam on July 24, 2026 for $3.99 USD / €4.15 EUR (Japan: 530 JPY). Furthermore, the game has successfully surpassed 10,000 wishlists on Steam, and the currently available playable demo has received a “Positive” rating from user reviews.

Watch the Official Trailer here

Game Overview

Limitless Survivor is an incremental action game that seamlessly blends idle mechanics with roguelite elements. Players can infinitely power up their characters by collecting crystals and artifacts, as well as performing “Prestige” to conquer the deepest depths of the dungeon. The game also features an autoplay function for automated, hands-free resource collection.

Key Features of “Limitless Survivor”

1. Stat Enhancement via Crystal Collection: Use crystals gathered within the dungeons to permanently upgrade your character’s base stats.

2. Permanent Progression via Artifacts Collecting: Dropped artifacts provides permanent boosts to your stats and skill efficacy. If you acquire duplicate artifacts, their effects stack and scale up your power significantly.

3. Skill Acquisition and Upgrades: Upon leveling up inside the dungeon, players can learn and upgrade up to 5 different skills. Customize your unique combat style freely by combining various abilities.

4. Random Option (OP) System: Equipment and items obtained from treasure chests come with randomized bonus modifiers (Options). These include powerful effects such as “Trigger an explosion upon defeating an enemy” or “Chain Lightning chance on hit,” offering highly varied build combinations.

5. Autoplay for Idle Farming: By activating the Autoplay Mode, the game automatically gathers crystals and artifacts without requiring manual controls. Players can easily alternate between active strategic progression and idle grinding.

6. Prestige System: Initiating a “Prestige” resets temporary stage progress but boosts future crystal acquisition rates and artifact drop probabilities, drastically increasing the training efficiency of subsequent runs.

Content Creation and Video Streaming Guidelines

Tam Lab highly welcomes and encourages corporate creators, independent streamers, and casual players to broadcast gameplay footage, share screenshots on social media, and stream gameplay videos.

Souls-like FPS Guns of Eschaton Announced, Set in Viktor Antonov’s Apocalyptic Dying West

Publisher 4Divinity and developer Eschatology Entertainment have today announced Guns of Eschaton, a mystical Western first-person shooter fused with a Souls-like challenge and the final original universe envisioned by the late Viktor Antonov, the art director behind some of the most memorable worlds in videogames including Half Life 2 and Dishonored. 

Set in nineteenth-century America, Guns of Eschaton draws upon iconic historical figures and mythic Old West archetypes, reimagined within a fantastical apocalyptic world where every enemy encounter carries the risk of death. 

Face the apocalypse in the announcement trailer here

Guns of Eschaton sends you on a journey from the West to the East Coast through a dying America. In this apocalyptic world, every enemy encounter becomes a test of preparation, resource management, and survival. 

Players will learn to tackle enemy encounters through the use of specialized ammunition, well-timed parries, precise dashes, and the Codex, which reveals enemy weaknesses through its Sequence Points system. Together, these core mechanics form the foundation of the game’s strategic combat. Just remember: Every. Shot. Counts. 

“We are incredibly honoured to be revealing Guns of Eschaton, the final project shaped by the extraordinary vision of Viktor Antonov,” shares Fuad Kuliev, Studio Head at Eschatology Entertainment. “From the earliest stages of development, I had the privilege of shaping this world together with Viktor: where ideas, themes, and concepts evolved through his talent into the world players will see today. Viktor’s imagination and creative legacy have been a constant source of inspiration throughout development, and this game is the result of an incredible collaborative effort from our entire team to bring that vision to life. We are proud to share it with players around the world in partnership with our publisher, 4Divinity.” 

Key Features

  • Every bullet counts: Face off in deliberate, high-stakes gunfights where preparation matters as much as aim. Study enemies through the Codex to uncover weaknesses, execute calculated parries, and wield mystic abilities granted to you by the occult. 
  • Build your legendary gunslinger: Customize your playstyle with deep character progression and flexible buildcrafting. Experiment with a vast arsenal of firearms, ammunition types, occult powers, talismans, armor, and consumables. Combine active and passive abilities, find powerful synergies, and learn deadly tricks from legendary gunslingers.
  • Explore an occult apocalyptic west: Roam the Apocalyptic West like never before. Created by the legendary Viktor Antonov, the world blends 19th-century frontier Americana with occult horror. 
  • Ride alone or together: Experience this unforgiving world alone or alongside allies, with full solo and co-op progression allowing players to tackle every challenge however they wish.
