The new client update has several strings that reference things like a "Neptune" controller alongside something else called "SteamPal." The prevailing theory is that Valve is working on a handheld console, perhaps similar to the Nintendo Switch, that will be called SteamPal when it is released....

Maneater Out Now for Steam, Game Pass, and Switch
Finally, something that isn't scheduled for May 27th.
Today, as in right this second, you can play Maneater on PC via Steam, Xbox Game Pass, and even the Nintendo Switch. Though the game was available on the PC before today, it was locked to the Epic Games Store. We reviewed the initial release of the game back in June 2020 if you want to check that out. We found the game to be pretty decent, but nothing super great.
The version available for Game Pass is for both the... -

Techland to Hold a Dying Light 2 Special Event on May 27
Get ready for some fresh news about Dying Light 2 on May 27th.
This past week, Techland sent me a little package with some interesting goodies inside. Included in the package were a letter, a mini-poster, and a mini flashlight. Of course, this was a bit more than just a courtesy package. It looks to be the start of Techland's media push for Dying Light 2.
The flashlight turned out to be a blacklight. The included letter said that I'd have to hunt to know more. Putting... -

A new image for the upcoming Uncharted movie surfaced today courtesy of the New York Times. The image shows off both Tom Holland as Nathan Drake and Mark Wahlberg as Victor"Goddamn""Sully" Sullivan. The image shows the two, I don't know... infiltrating a castle? Perhaps an old cathedral? Maybe searching a museum? It's hard to tell. It's a place with a lot of candles.
Whatever they're doing, there's one thing that... -

Tired of seeing hot tub streams on Twitch? Well, tough! Because while they won't necessarily show up under the Just Chatting category on Twitch, they will now show up under the new "Pools, Hot Tubs, and Beaches" category instead. Yeah, it seems as though Twitch is embracing the sun, surf, and inflatable Pickle Rick flotation devices instead of banning them outright.
