‘Stupid Never Dies’ Aims For Fall 2026 Release [Trailer]
Developer GPTRACK50 has announced that their upcoming zombie action-adventure RPG Stupid Never Dies will be launching this fall on Steam and PlayStation 5. The announcement coincides with a brand new trailer for the game, offering a deeper look at the game’s progression systems, including the Body Hack mechanic, which allows Davy to modify his body, as well as the first reveal of several boss characters.
In addition to the 11 “Styles” available to the player, where Davy can consume an enemy’s core and steal their abilities, there’s also the Body Hack. This allows Davy to sacrifice a limb (he’s a zombie, after all) to equip powerful weapons and gear to his arms, legs, and head. A proper loadout of Implants can make the difference between victory and defeat, so you’ll need to choose wisely.
In the aftermath of the Great War, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction and monsters rule the land. At the bottom rung of this society is Davy, a lowly zombie scraping by in a deserted shopping mall. One day, he discovers the human girl Julia frozen to death in a freezer…and falls in love at first sight. Motivated by his newfound crush, Davy finds his purpose in undeath: to bring Julia back to life, then to ask her out.

Pulp Thriller ‘The Drifter’ Launches on Switch and Switch 2 on June 22 [Trailer]
Powerhoof isn’t leaving Nintendo fans out any longer when it comes to their throwback adventure title, The Drifter. After launching last year on PC via Steam, the game will finally see release on the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 on June 22.
The Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of The Drifter supports up to 4K 120fps, delivering extra crisp pixel art and improved frame rates for ultra-smooth parallax scrolling. Switch 2 players can also swap between twin-stick and traditional point-and-click controls with the Joy-Con 2 mouse sensor functionality.
Inspired by the works of Stephen King, John Carpenter and Michael Crichton, The Drifter is described as a “classic 2D point and click adventure with the brake-lines cut.” The story centres around the aforementioned drifter, Mick Carter. Moving from job to job, never staying one place long, Mick jumps a box-car to his old home town, where he witnesses a violent murder, and is pursued by hi-tech soldiers, thrown in a reservoir and drowned.
Just before his consciousness is ripped away, it is thrust back into his body. Alive again, seconds before his death. Mick is framed for the killing he witnessed, tormented by his own past, and haunted by the feeling that something followed him back from the other side.
Taking its cues from the modern revival of the adventure genre, Powerhoof serves up a tight, razor-sharp narrative with The Drifter, propelling the player through the story. To compliment this, the game employs grounded, unobtrusive and satisfying investigative puzzles to act as the “sinew” between punchy narrative beats.
Check out Aaron’s review of the game, which (rightfully so) has garnered multiple awards, and in addition to being featured in multiple publications’ ‘Best of 2025’ articles (including our own).
