Absolum isn't just the best demo on Steam, it's one of my favorite things I've played in 2025

2 weeks ago | pcgamer.com | Evan Lahti

Until now I couldn't figure out why Hades, a game with 275,000 positive reviews piled up on Steam, didn't grab me. Turns out it's something fairly trivial: I dislike controlling a tiny character in an action game. Absolum takes the "die, retry" format of Hades—its own subgenre of roguelike at this point—and blends it with the DNA of beat-'em-ups, including those generous 2D sprites we know from the '90s.

The 14 most underappreciated games of the last year that you shouldn't have ignored

1 month ago | pcgamer.com | Dominic Tarason |Evan Lahti

Either I’m getting old, or the world is just moving too fast. Even outside of the maelstrom that is current events, videogames are flying past faster than anyone can process them—there’s just not enough time in the day. In any given week, a dozen good or even great games might be released. Chances are a lot of the last year’s best slipped under your radar.

The DayZ creator and CEO of Icarus developer RocketWerkz is now working on Kitten Space Agency, a space sim that is an unofficial second attempt at making a Kerbal Space Program sequel following KSP2's dramatic failure in 2024.
The latest big game on Steam is Fragpunk, or as I like to call it, 'kitchen-sink Counter-Strike'

In your long history as a gamer, I'm sure you've played a game with a big head mode. But what about a small head mode? Or a 5v5 shooter where an ankle-height, knock-off Growlithe (that's a Pokémon) follows you around and spits fire at enemies? Or a competitive FPS where you can crouch to lay an egg that can be eaten to regain lost health? Or a shooter where using voice chat dynamically increases your movement speed?

But while you're breaking the bones and carving the hides of these mythical beings, have you ever wondered: would a Rathlos actually move like that?
