Welcome to the month of June which we kick off with a remake of an ARPG from 2001 that appears to have been given a bit more than just a graphics overhaul. The rest of the week starts with running a shop selling arcane goods, some hack and slash and sorcery, being a police dog in 1930's Chicago except it's an alternate universe, working as a medic during the war in the Pacific and finally being a card playing witch. As always there are some additional releases this week as well.

Fatekeeper was announced during a THQ Nordic showcase in August 2025 as an upcoming first-person ARPG that "blends precise melee combat and precise spellcasting in a handcrafted world," and, although not much fuss has been made about the game since, THQ Nordic and the game's developer, Paraglacial, just announced the game's Steam Early Access release date and published a release date trailer for the game, giving us a glimpse of what to expect when it launches on June 2.

Fatekeeper is being developed by a 13-person outfit, Paraglacial, and to complement the aforementioned brutal melee combat and spellcasting, which have been previewed in a devlog video on YouTube, the developer has shown off an intricate skill tree that gives players a lot of flexibility when it comes to builds and combat. Fatekeeper is set in a post-apocalyptic world with elements from different cultures and time periods throughout history, and it presents players with a focussed narrative while still offering adventurous players with opportunity to explore the world and its lore.
