Wolverine update tones down scent trails, with a future toggle hinted

Insomniac's Marvel's Wolverine received a hotfix (01.001.005) that lowers the opacity of the on-screen scent trails and reduces the related audio cues, addressing player complaints about the distracting “fart gas” effect while keeping the feature. The developer says it may add an option to completely toggle scents off in a future update, and the patch also fixes some crashes. The game has sold ~1.9 million copies to date (~$130m in revenue), with about 23% of sales physical; Eurogamer noted strong character work but an overall mixed impression.

Wardogs Explodes onto Steam, Triggers Massive Queues and a Quick Patch

Wardogs launched in Steam Early Access to a massive buzz, hitting about 300,000 peak concurrent players and becoming Steam’s top seller. Long server queues spawned memes as Bulkhead blamed Valve’s rate limits; the team briefly kicked the queue to speed access and promised controlled batches while issues persisted. A hotfix has now rolled out to fix joining, disconnections, and incorrect bans, with instructions to restart the game to download the update and rejoin in batches, though no timeline was given for full relief. The game is a 100-player, three-team FPS set in a fictional Eastern Europe; console versions are planned for 2028, and Steam keys are discounted via Fanatical.

Dawnwalker patch fixes controller issues as Rebel Wolves teases sequel

Hotfix 1.04 for The Blood of Dawnwalker fixes controller frame-rate drops tied to outdated GameInput software and adjusts controller dead zones, plus general stability, saving, and quest issues across PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S; this follows an earlier patch that added formal DualSense support on Steam and GOG. Rebel Wolves is also recruiting a lead writer as they discuss a sequel that would let Coen's vampire hero travel across historical eras with save-game carryover. The game has surpassed 1 million sales and continues to attract Witcher 3 fans.
