Inhuman Resources: A Literary Machination is a narrative-driven adventure developed by Finnegan Motors and published on consoles (including PS5) by Dolores Entertainment. It blends interactive fiction, choose-your-own-adventure elements, light RPG mechanics, and psychological horror blended into a surreal corporate satire.
Developed by Games Farm (in collaboration with ARTillery) and published by Grindstone, Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel is a fast-paced roguelike horde-survivor that throws players into the brutal realms of Norse mythology. You battle endless waves of mythical foes, collect divine blessings from the gods, explore deadly arenas, and take down towering bosses in runs that emphasize build-crafting, momentum, and sheer chaotic fun. The new Conan DLC (released April 9, 2026) is a major paid expansion that drops the legendary Cimmerian barbarian into this frozen hellscape as a playable hero. It also brings a brand-new realm, deity, and boss encounter, all bundled alongside the free 2.0 update that finally adds local co-op.
Skautfold: Moonless Knight, developed by Pugware (primarily by solo creator Steve Gal) and published by Red Art Games for the PS5, is a Lovecraftian action-RPG with strong Metroidvania elements. It launches digitally on consoles including the PS5 on April 9, 2026, following its earlier PC release. The game transports players to an alternate-history 1900 Japan, blending gothic horror, eldritch cosmic terror, and political intrigue in a tightly interconnected world.
ChainStaff, developed by Mommy's Best Games (led by veteran Nathan Fouts, formerly of Insomniac Games) and published by Null Games, is a high-octane 2D action-platformer that channels the chaotic energy of 1980's sci-fi action flicks and heavy metal album art. Set in a world overrun by invasive "Star Spores," the game casts you as a soldier whose head has been hijacked by a parasitic alien, forcing you to wield a bizarre, transforming bony weapon called the ChainStaff to fight back against hordes of mutating monsters and reclaim Earth. It's a love letter to classics like Contra, blended with modern grappling-hook acrobatics and gory, over-the-top combat.
Devil Jam, developed and published by the independent Belgian studio Rogueside, is a hand-drawn, metal-infused survivor-like roguelite that brings chaotic, beat-driven combat to the PS5. Released on consoles in late March 2026 after its PC debut, the game drops players into the fiery pits of Hell for an auto-shooter experience where rhythm, hordes of demons, and over-the-top rockstar power collide. It's a love letter to heavy metal aesthetics blended with Vampire Survivors-style gameplay, featuring a unique grid-based build system and a narrative twist on deals with the devil.
