🎮 Grind without leaving your day job, compact HIT TBH: Task Bar Hero rocketed into Steam's Top‑4 a week after its 27 May 2026 launch and peaked at over 210,000 players, sitting only behind Counter‑Strike 2, PUBG and Dota 2.
A cute pixel idle‑RPG that lives in your taskbar: classes, skills, items and builds to kill office boredom and keep the grind going while you actually work.
⚖️ Bloomberg, the nutshell: pressure on Valve over Steam's market power, accused of using contract limits and pricing to stifle rivals.
The company is small (~350 people); Gabe Newell projects a hands‑off style, a $500M yacht and plenty of autonomy, yet he sometimes storms in MESSY: "What the f*** am I paying you for?" According to court documents, Valve once threatened to delist R6 Siege after a cheaper Uplay bundle showed up, vet...
🏆 007 First Light has climbed to No.1 in Steam's weekly sales chart for paid titles, critics' praise and early user scores pushed it up, but only among paid releases.
Overall top spot went back to Counter-Strike 2. May blockbusters like Forza Horizon 6 remain in the paid top 10, and newcomer Mina the Hollower crashed into the list. Path of Exile 2 re-entered after a discount and the big "Return of the Ancients" update. Pea...

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era sold 500K copies in under 72 hours ⚡️
Over 6K reviews, peak concurrent ≈ 60K, 25K+ in the official Discord, and the game sits in Steam's top-sellers next to Diablo IV and Windrose. WOW 👑
📉 Marathon, an extraction shooter from Bungie, is sliding into oblivion: Steam's daily peak fell to 16k in May, and the game is nowhere in Xbox or PlayStation charts.
About 70% of players are on Steam, the first sale barely moved the needle, for a live‑service shooter that's close to DOOM. Without radical gameplay fixes the project risks fading away within months.

🎮 FREEBIE paid off: Graveyard Keeper climbed into Steam's top‑40 concurrent list, CEO Alex Nichiporchik calls the giveaway a clear win for tinyBuild.
During the free period the base game hit over 40,000 concurrent players; paid DLC sales on Steam brought in about $250,000, and the sequel picked up 400,000 wishlists. tinyBuild's takeaway: making the base temporarily free is an effective way to monetize years of added content an...

🎮 Death Stranding 2: On the Beach received patch 1.3 and is now officially verified for Steam Deck, FINALLY some of the quality-of-life issues are being fixed.
The title kept a gold ProtonDB rating, yet players reported tiny text, UI scaling problems, performance hitches and stability issues, all called out in the notes.
Steam's patch notes list XeSS, FSR 3, the Pico upscaler, frame generation, plus input/UI tweaks, performance an...
👀 Hawthorn, INDIE co-op, just cleared 400,000 wishlists and is racing toward 415,000, sitting at #103 on Steam's most-wished chart, right on the lip of the TOP-100.
For a small self-funded team that's a major milestone: devs ask players to share the co-op experience and hope community support will push them into the Top-100. Hawthorn also got a spotlight at Steam House and Home Fest with a video showcasing new Windmir Valley interiors.
