Drops Received Official Information. An updated demo for the cooperative game Shift at Midnight is available on Steam until March 2. Developed by indie developer Bun Muen and published by Kwalee, the demo was released for Steam Next Fest and challenges players to manage a gas station while contending with doppelgangers. In Shift at Midnight, players must fill fuel tanks, inspect vehicles for imposters, stock shelves, meet sales quotas, receive deliveries, and maintain a clean store. The demo features a new inventory system, customizable environment assessments, and a health system, as well as save file support. Starting on night three, rats roam the area, and players can access a random store via computer for upgrades and items. The demo introduces new random customers while maintaining a consistent first shift for ease of learning, and includes new store decorations like hats. Players must interrogate customers, as some are doppelgangers who will return to cause harm. If a doppelganger escapes, players can set traps, barricade doors, and hide. Each shift is randomly generated, ensuring a unique gameplay experience where survival is not guaranteed, especially in multiplayer mode.

Additionally, the tactical deckbuilder Rune Dice has been updated with a new hero class, runes, relics, and a progression system featuring quests and rewards. No specific release dates have been announced for Grime II or any other titles besides Luna Abyss.
