Return to the classic mythology-inspired setting of Titan Quest and go toe-to-toe with legendary monsters as you journey across a fantastical reimagining of Ancient Greece.

Nemesis, Goddess of Retribution, is out of control. She is corrupting the Threads of Fate and condemning all those who oppose her to Eternal Punishment - including you. Take up your weapon, fight alongside gods, and face some of the most powerful forces in Greek mythology in order to stop Nemesis, free those she’s punished, and weave your own epic tale.

From the creators of SpellForce 3 comes a handcrafted action RPG for a new generation of mythical heroes.

Embark on an adventure worthy of the epics that takes you from picturesque beaches, to serene Greek temples, to ruins haunted by shades of the dead, to places where no mortal has ever ventured, including the mysterious realm of the Moirai themselves and beyond.

Battle classic creatures from Greek myth and the original Titan Quest, including ichthians, centaurs, gryphons, hippokampoi and cyclopes, and prove that the age of heroes is far from over.

Titan Quest II features a unique handcrafted campaign focused on exploration, and the world is full of mysteries and secrets to discover. Legendary monsters lurk in hidden groves, strange artifacts still carry magic from bygone ages, and you never know when you will end up face-to-face with a god. Every ruin holds a secret, every statue a story.

Visit memorable towns full of life and intrigue. The conversations you engage in and the items you find along your journey can lead to surprising discoveries. This is your adventure.

Heroic deeds require heroic effort. As your journey progresses you will unlock powerful abilities and wield epic weapons, but the enemies you face are far from defenseless - dodge and counter their attacks, then overwhelm them with a well-timed flurry of blows.

Rituals allow you to control the game’s difficulty, while deep character customization systems ensure that there’s always a good reason to replay.

Flexible character system: In Titan Quest II, you are in control of your own fate. Form your own class by combining two masteries. Build your character around the strengths and weakness of both masteries, exploring different combinations of skill modifiers, attributes, and items to create your own hybrid class and find your favorite playstyle. Grow your powers from those of a young mortal to a hero to rival the gods themselves!
Meaningful loot: Every item serves a function, and every character class has many options when it comes to finding the perfect equipment.
Challenging action RPG combat: Enemies form factions and work together, combining their unique skills and abilities to keep you on your toes. Use the deep character build system and access every skill at your disposal to vanquish them in this unique action RPG experience.
A beautiful, handcrafted world rooted in Greek myth: Encounter stunning vistas and deep caverns. Use the powers of the gods to uncover secret locations and explore lovingly designed levels full of verticality.
Rich and immersive sound: An atmospheric soundtrack blends traditional Greek music with modern orchestral elements to create epic, memorable themes, drawing you into Titan Quest II's unique world.

EXT. MANSION - NIGHT "FIND VINNY"

Night falls and he still won't pick up the phone. You arrive at the mansion: the last place he went. It's oddly quiet for the site of a glamorous party the night before. Your invite must have gotten lost in the mail. In any case, you make your way inside to find your friend.

Actors have to look out for each other in this industry.

Feed me something real

INT. MANSION - NIGHT "PLAY YOUR PART"

An abandoned film set. A broken home cinema. Searching the mansion and unlocking its secrets requires the fullness of your ingenuity. Pay attention.

INT. HOME CINEMA - NIGHT "A SPLICE OF LIFE"

Your search reveals a number of USB drives and memory cards containing corrupted video files. Some can be spliced together to reveal what really happened within these walls. Try not to lose yourself in your work.

INT. HEART OF HOLLYWOOD - NIGHT "TAKE YOUR SHOT"

The house is watching. It seems to haunt your steps. Piece together what really happened last night as you discover a side of the entertainment industry only discussed in whispers.

The cruelty. The sordid gossip. The auditions gone wrong. The shadowy figure with the power to make or break your career.

There's only one way to guarantee your success: feed me something real.

In a dystopian future where corporations rule, a brutal reality show is the hottest entertainment property in town! You play as Scarlett Martillo, a contestant out for revenge. To win, you must navigate dangerous urban arenas packed with lethal traps and face off against hordes of heavily-armed psychopaths.

Each stage in Showgunners has been hand-crafted to create a curated, turn-based tactical gameplay experience, heightened with the inclusion of a diabolical show director that can hinder Scarlett or help her opponents depending on your performance. This dynamic level design ensures that no two levels play the same way and keep players thinking tactically. Showgunners has been built to challenge and delight players, whether they’re a turn-based tactical game initiate or a long-time fan of the genre!

Scarlett won’t be fighting alone. As the story progresses, players will recruit new partners that can turn the tide of battle in all kinds of exciting ways. Upgrade your characters by spending talent points in their unique skill trees and outfitting them with weapons bought at a shop or earned during battle. Hidden challenges within each chapter can unlock more allies, legendary weapons, and helpful items, so be sure to keep an eye out!

Players will need to navigate an obstacle course of deadly traps and lethal puzzles in real-time, but be prepared for an ambush at any corner. Psychopathic enemies like the Ogre and the Ronin aren’t the only deadly elements you’ll need to overcome. Combat scenarios are peppered with unique environmental hazards, from ticking time bombs to runaway trains. There is never a dull moment in Showgunners!

Gain fame by avoiding death, surviving rounds, and eliminating your enemies with gruesome panache. The more you succeed, the more fans you earn; your growing fame will yield increasingly beneficial sponsorship deals.

Streamers, rejoice! Use the native Twitch integration to keep audiences engaged by letting them control the direction of each level. They can add more enemies, change the terrain, add or remove obstacles, or send useful items, all from chat.

Greetings Adventurer!

You start in the middle of nowhere with no memories or possessions. It's up to you to forge your destiny, become a famous treasure hunter by searching dangerous dungeons, the best blacksmith in the whole country or a benefactor by helping the villagers who need you. Who will you become?

Blending elements of traditional role-playing games such as The Elder Scrolls or The Legend of Zelda with the freedom of sandbox-style games such as Stardew Valley and Terraria, Vagabond is a unique experience.

Moreover, you can share your adventures with your friends as Vagabond was designed from the ground to support multiplayer.

Explore vast procedurally generated worlds and travel across many different biomes which have their own riches and dangers.

Each world is unique and yours to write a new story.

Harvest valuable resources by cutting down trees in forests, mining veins in caves, tending crops in your garden or hunting monsters and wild animals.

In Vagabond, worlds are not deserted, they are populated by many villages.

Meet the villagers, discover their stories and customs, help them solve their problems and become a respected member of the community.

Join guilds to complete perilous missions and learn new secret skills.

Meet the different skill masters in villages and learn how to craft powerful items from your resources.

Forge dangerous weapons and strong armors at the forge, brew potions, enchant your equipment and craft powerful magical artifacts at the wizard's laboratory, sew beautiful clothes at the tailor shop or craft furniture to furnish your home at the carpentry workshop.

Explore ruins buried in the desert, temples lost in the jungle or caves full of underground creatures.

Fight your way with the point of your sword, defeat many monsters and bring back fabulous treasures from your travels.

Share your adventures with your friend with networked multiplayer (through LAN or the Internet).",[3471],{"_16":248,"_249":3472,"_263":3475,"_265":72,"_27":72,"_266":126,"_267":268,"_269":270},[3473],{"_252":3362,"_253":3474,"_255":62,"_256":126,"_257":72,"_258":68,"_259":2383,"_261":1608},"Vagabond - 14,79€","Buy Vagabond",{"_273":1608,"_274":1608,"_276":978,"_278":1610,"_280":126,"_282":72},"https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/1673090/capsule_184x69.jpg?t=1727701314",{"_288":3479,"_290":3480},"Minimum:

Day of the Shell is a fast-paced tactical roguelite, where each turn is played in a single click.

The gods have brought down their wrath on humanity, and only a few remote islands remain. A lonely monster huntress has risen to challenge and appease the gods, traveling through what's left of the world.

FEATURES

One Click, One Turn: Tactical choices are made with a single click, making gameplay simple and dynamic while maintaining strategic depth.
Explore the Islands: Survive against monsters and collect treasures on each island to open its portal. Will you be able to reach the heart of the Islands and destroy the Shell?
Shape Your Destiny: Combine the powers of the many Warden's blessings to fight your enemies. Different variations and combinations will allow you to create a unique playstyle for each game.
Death is Part of the Adventure: With each death, you return to your home island, where you can permanently upgrade or consider your strategy for the next day.

Steal legendary artifacts to regain your freedom

Etienne Quist, a once-acclaimed writer, loses his ability to write after he is found guilty of an unspeakable crime. In an attempt to reclaim his lost status, he is approached by a criminal boss with a cunning offer. All he needs to do is locate and steal a series of legendary items from books. Delve into remarkable book worlds, each with its unique rules and challenges. Should anyone stand between you and the artifacts, be prepared to persuade, deceive, or even engage them in combat.

Explore different books and reshape their stories

Each quest thrusts you into an entirely new world: medieval prison, snow-capped mountain, futuristic spaceship and more. Meet the inhabitants of each book and use them to achieve your goals — after all, they are not really alive... or are they? In your quest, you will not be alone, as your paths cross with a sentient caged page, whom you adopt as your partner-in-crime and trusted advisor.

Solve unconventional puzzles across fiction and reality

Test your ingenuity with unique puzzles that encourage thinking outside the box, as you freely travel between fiction and reality, gathering valuable items to overcome obstacles. Using the mystical power of ink, you can manipulate objects within the books, adding depth to your interactions and unlocking new paths to explore.","https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/1432100/page_bg_raw.jpg?t=1752530017",[5512],{"_16":248,"_249":5513,"_263":5516,"_265":72,"_27":72,"_266":126,"_267":268,"_269":270},[5514],{"_252":5426,"_253":5515,"_255":62,"_256":126,"_257":72,"_258":68,"_259":2383,"_261":1608},"The Bookwalker - 14,79€","Buy The Bookwalker: Thief of Tales",{"_273":1608,"_274":1608,"_276":978,"_278":1610,"_280":126,"_282":72},"https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/1432100/capsule_184x69.jpg?t=1752530017",{"_288":5520,"_290":5521},"Minimum:

SOULVARS quickly smoothed out and got in its JRPG groove thanks to a good mix of deck-building and turn-based action. Additionally, it let its retro vibe personality show and it quickly became a pleasant experience.”

““SOULVARS is a fantastic pixel-art arcade action game. It has very few problems, surprisingly, for being the first title released by ginolabo on Steam. Developers have done a wonderful job in streamlining both the combat and the adventure.””
82 – GamesCreed

““SOULVARS uses a retro Japanese role-playing game look that suits the theme and the gameplay well. It's classic pixel art, with a focus on interesting designs for the player-controlled characters and the many cool moves they can execute. It is nice to watch the action unfold but the variety of locations and enemies is limited. More energy has been used to create bosses and their unique moves. The interface is easy to navigate and offers plenty of information for players to process.””

“This is easily the best game Bloober Team have put out yet, and its existence serves to show everyone why they believe they're the right people to helm the Silent Hill 2 remake—and I have to admit, they've convinced me. Just like that, I've gone from being ambivalent about Silent Hill 2, to cautiously optimistic.”
9/10 – PC Gamer

“Bloober Team and Anshar Studios take what strong foundation had already been laid with the first three titles, and improves upon it substantially with fresh, impactful mechanics, excellent visuals, and a brand-new, overarching tale that spans the length of all artists' stories. For both new and loyal fans alike, Layers of Fear is a worthwhile venture back down the rabbit hole.”

The series, which has left a mark on narrative-driven first-person psychological horror games, returns to tell its final spine-chilling story in Layers of Fear.. The series’ crowning work is the definitive way to experience the critically acclaimed franchise as it features Layers of Fear and Layers of Fear 2, as well as all DLCs (including the new ‘The Final Note’ DLC that will give you a new perspective on the Layers of Fear storyline) and the never-before-told story of The Writer, which will tie everything together. Built on Unreal Engine 5, Layers of Fear supports Ray Tracing, HDR and 4K resolution to make the stunning visuals, and your nightmarish experience, as immersive and realistic as possible.

Layers of Fear: Create Your Magnum Opus
“The one precious thing you ever truly desired… FINISH IT.”

Explore a Victorian mansion covered in artwork as The Painter, whose sanity crumbles and cracks just like old oil paint on canvas. Trawl through the ever-changing house to find the supplies needed for your greatest masterpiece, all while trying to outrun your past.
Inheritance DLC: Face Your Past

“I was once told insanity runs in my family… It’s time to make it stop.”

Told from the perspective of The Painter’s Daughter, you come seeking answers. What secrets does this homestead hold? Will you ever truly understand the madness that bestowed your father? Can you ever forgive him? The house may hold everything you need to know... if you can face reliving your past.

The Final Note DLC: Delve Even Deeper

A brand new DLC which aims to shed more light on The Painter, his muse and the family’s backstory, The Final Note is told from the perspective of The Painter’s Wife. This additional narrative may change how you see the characters of the first game, as well as their actions.

Layers of Fear 2: Hit Your Marks

“Time waits for no one, actor. Do not waste ours.”

You are the lead actor in a production being filmed aboard an ocean liner, but all is not what it seems. Explore the ship and discover why you were perfect for The Director’s (voiced by Tony Todd) latest film. You awake and are told one simple command “Act.” But will you?

The Final Prologue

The first expansion to Layers of Fear 2’s storyline allows you to step into the director’s seat and take the reins of a troubled Hollywood production. Immerse yourself into the psyche of the movie’s creator as you seek to complete your final masterpiece, even as the set around you descends into chaos.

It’s up to you to direct the action and make sure that what’s in the script makes it onto the silver screen. Experiment with different takes and try to fulfill your vision of the ultimate horror movie, all while battling inner demons and external forces that threaten to derail the whole production.

This latest chapter in the Layers of Fear anthology is available as a FREE UPDATE for all current Layers of Fear owners. The Final Prologue is playable as a separate chapter within the game’s menu.

The Lighthouse Chapter: Link the Layers

Enter a lone and ghastly lighthouse as the newest protagonist, The Writer, and discover a never-before-told tale which will tie the entire series together. What awaits you there? You’ll just have to find out.

FROGSONG is a heartfelt adventure where it's okay to be small.

Chorus is a little frog with huge dreams of protecting the world. Being a tiny tree frog, however, society expects them to lead a life of religious studies, instead of training to be a warrior.

They quickly learn things aren't going to be as easy as they hoped. With a powerful army and a mysterious rumour both on the rise, Chorus needs to prove that they can be a hero too - before it's too late.

Explore a beautiful, atmospheric land and fight monsters on your journey to find your place in the world.

FEATURES:

Friends and foes brought to life in expressive hand-drawn 2D animation!
Talk to lots of cute and strange characters as you explore the land of Salia!
Explore five unique areas filled with their own special enemies, villages, and bosses!
Upgrade your blade at the blacksmith's shop for stronger attacks!
