New Games of the Week – Gamesplanet Highlights

Genre: Action RPG / Co-op | Release: May 6, 2026 (Early Access)
From the creators of Northgard and Wartales comes Farever, an online action RPG set in a vast fantasy open world. Alone or with friends, you’ll explore the colorful world of Siagarta with its sprawling regions, hidden dungeons, world events, and dangerous faction conflicts. The character system is particularly well-designed: At launch, four of ten playable classes are available, which you can freely combine and specialize using weapons, abilities, and equipment you craft yourself. Enemy strength and numbers scale dynamically with your group, ensuring that solo adventurers and groups of four are equally challenged. Shiro Games is relying on community feedback during Early Access and plans to continue developing the game for about a year in this phase before the full release follows.

Mixtape

On their last night together, three friends embark on one final adventure. Play through a mixtape of memories, set to the soundtrack of a...

Genre: Adventure | Release: May 7, 2026
From Beethoven & Dinosaur, the Australian indie studio behind the BAFTA-winning The Artful Escape, comes Mixtape: an atmospheric coming-of-age adventure stylistically inspired by the films of John Hughes (The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off). You accompany three friends on their last night together before graduation. On their way to the final party, a carefully curated playlist draws the three into dreamlike, playable memories from their youth. The individual vignettes range from skateboarding sessions and first kisses to scenes of fleeing from the police, constantly shifting the gameplay style so that no sequence loses its appeal. What sets Mixtape apart from other narrative adventures is its extraordinary soundtrack: featuring DEVO, Joy Division, The Cure, The Smashing Pumpkins, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and many more, the game consistently draws on the music of a generation.

Two Point Museum: Arty-Facts includes art, facts and artefacts. Now hiring for Art Experts to re-establish and re-imagine 'Art' for Two P...

Genre: Simulation / Management (DLC) | Release Date: May 7, 2026
The lively museum management game Two Point Museum is getting its third major expansion with Arty-Facts. In the new Undee Docks location, you’ll build a full-fledged art museum: More than 27 exhibits await you, including lovingly reimagined references to famous works of art—such as “The Persistence of Dairy” (Dalí’s melting clocks, replaced by pizzas) or “Box of Truffle Pigs” (Warhol’s Monroe silkscreen, reinterpreted with wild boars). As the newly introduced art expert, you’ll also set up your own art studio, where you can create original works and deliberately evoke specific emotions in museum visitors. There are also interactive exhibition formats like the Performance Arts Stage and a Sketch Show. The DLC is roughly as extensive as the Zooseum expansion.
