CloverPit, the self-described rogue-lite slot machine nightmare, was initially scheduled to release on September 3--but that was before Silksong's September 4 release date was announced. Although CloverPit was one of multiple titles to have its release date moved further away from Silksong's, Panik Arcade has released an updated demo to mark the original release date.

Developer Panik Arcade describes CloverPit as "the demonic lovechild of Balatro and Buckshot Roulette," giving the Balatro treatment to an addictive lever-pull slot machine--with a healthy dose of horror besides. While CloverPit has plenty of promise, Panik Arcade was realistic about its chance of competing with Silksong, and made the call to move its release back to September 26 to avoid the clash.

As a nod to the day that should have been CloverPit's release date, Panik Arcade has instead released an updated demo that the developer says is "much closer to the 1.0 release." The demo update adds multiple new features including Steam Achievements, new charm modifiers, quality of life updates, and even an update to the plot.

Valve has trademarked the term Steam Frame, lending fuel to rumors that the company is planning to release a console counterpart to its popular handheld Steam Deck. No matter what form the Steam Frame takes, it looks like Valve is planning to expand its gaming hardware offerings in the near future.

Valve filed two separate trademarks for the Steam Frame on September 2, as spotted by a Reddit user, with each covering a different use. The first is listed for "computer game consoles for recreational game playing," including related accessories and controllers, while the second is broadly under "computer hardware," with an extended description that's an exact match for Valve's trademark filing for the Steam Index VR headset. The Steam Deck, for reference, was listed under "handheld computers" and "computer hardware," among other related categories.

While the trademark filing doesn't have enough information to confirm anything, the industry rumor mill suggests Valve is working on multiple hardware projects including a Steam console codenamed Fremont, a new SteamVR headset codenamed Deckard, and new Steam controllers. The Valve Fremont recently appeared in a listing on benchmarking platform Geekbench, further fueling speculation around the project.

This month marks the fourth anniversary of the announcement for Marvel's Wolverine. Insomniac Games hasn't shared much beyond the game's initial teaser. But according to a new report, Wolverine will be featured at Sony's next State of Play event near the end of September.

According to Insider Gaming, a new trailer for Wolverine has been finished for a potential debut at State of Play. Sony already had a State of Play this week for 007: First Light, and it hasn't yet announced plans for another one this month. Insider Gaming acknowledged the possibility that Wolverine's trailer could be pushed back to The Game Awards in December if the next State of Play isn't scheduled for this month.

Insomniac has already confirmed that Wolverine take place in the same universe as the three Spider-Man on PS4 and PS5. Unofficially, some potential spoilers for Wolverine were released after the Insomniac hack in 2023. Later reports suggested that Insomniac made changes to the game after the hack, but it's unclear how significant they were. Previous reports have also stated that Wolverine may be M-rated to better serve the character's violent nature.

Prior to this year, the release date for the Nintendo Switch 2 console was the subject of numerous rumors and speculative reports. The wait for fans officially ended in early June, but a new report states that Nintendo pushed back the Switch 2 launch multiple times despite the frustration of third-party companies.

According to Bloomberg, the reason Nintendo didn't rush Switch 2 to the market is because its designers requested extended deadlines for the launch titles in order to "perfect" them. Nintendo prioritized that above all other concerns, including the third-party publishers and fans who clamored for the console for years.

Earlier this summer, a separate report noted that Switch 2 development kits are still rare among third-party companies even months after launch. It's believed that issue may be the reason why some Switch 2 third-party titles have yet to be officially announced. Nintendo's Switch 2 launch titles have also outsold the third-party games for the console by a much higher ratio than expected.
