Cold Symmetry, the team behind the action-RPG Mortal Shell, is developing a sequel, Mortal Shell 2. First revealed at Summer Game Fest 2025, the project builds on the success of the original game, which has sold over 2 million copies. Now with a team of 30, Cold Symmetry is aiming to improve and expand on their previous work and is preparing to share more details about Mortal Shell 2 after a well-received debut trailer last year.
Just days ago, SIREN was strutting around like the crypto equivalent of a celebrity influencer, hitting an all-time high of $3.60 and slapping its market cap up to $2 billion. It flipped Pi Network’s PI with the enthusiasm of a toddler toppling a Jenga tower. Alas, such glory is rarely sustainable, like a balloon filled with helium and hope. Now, it’s 85% less SIREN and 100% more sigh.
But before anyone starts calling it a breakout, there’s a catch. There’s always a catch. The universe is a master of dramatic irony.

Housemarque revealed its latest game during a February 2025 State of Play event with a captivating trailer. The game follows Soltari enforcer Arjun Devraj, portrayed by Rahul Kohli, as he relentlessly seeks the truth behind the mysterious and dangerous world of Carcosa.

Saros remains a third-person shooter with roguelike features, but it adds permanent upgrades, gear, and progression, making it less punishing when you die.
This anime was expected to be a big hit on Netflix, especially since it’s easy for new viewers to get into – many thought it would be as popular as the upcoming Elbaf Arc of One Piece. Unfortunately, recent news about the release schedule has dampened excitement for the show.
Even when faced with closure, some games are remarkably resilient. A small, passionate community often steps in to keep them alive, continuing the fun despite the wider gaming world – or even the original developers – moving on. These games somehow manage to stay playable and are still enjoyed today.
This isn’t just any old dip-oh no. This is the kind of plunge that makes you wonder if XRP took a wrong turn at Albuquerque and ended up in the Grand Canyon. According to the wizards at CryptoRank (who, let’s be honest, probably have more screens than a NASA control room), XRP has just wrapped up its worst quarter since 2018. That’s right, eight whole years of relative calm, and then-splat.
