Resident Evil Requiem is this week's standout PC release, arriving as Steam Next Fest unleashes a wave of demos and a few finished titles. The festival has become a crowded playground for short previews, though several noteworthy games — from Witcher-adjacent projects to pirate adventures and pinball experiences — are drawing attention beyond the usual prototype shuffle.

  • Resident Evil Requiem takes centre stage as the biggest spotlight release during the event, promising a full-fledged horror experience amid the demo flood.
  • Steam Next Fest continues to be a major showcase for demos, letting players sample dozens of projects and discover unexpected gems while many developers test the waters.
  • Witcher-related entries are on the map this week, with new content and spin-offs rekindling interest in the franchise for long-time fans.
  • Pirate-themed games and fresh pinball adaptations provide lighter, bite-sized alternatives to the festival’s heavier fare, giving variety to the line-up.
  • Not everything is a preview: a handful of complete releases have slipped into the schedule, turning what’s usually a demo-driven event into a mixed bag of finished titles and experimental builds.
