#screenshotsaturday tag. And every Monday, I bring you a selection of these snaps and clips. This week, my eye has been caught by cute townbuilding, decapitating horror, a demon skateboarding through Hell, bouncing logos, handcrafted strategy, an entire movie jammed into an immersive sim, and more. Come admire these interesting indies!

Like A Dragon: Ishin patch fixes stutters, crashes and UI issues
Like A Dragon: Ishin rewinds the Yakuza/Like A Dragon series, both by returning to real-time brawling and by being set in Edo period Japan. It’s great for it – and now a little better, since patch 1.03 fixed some PC-specific bugs.
PowerWash Simulator’s Final Fantasy VII crossover pack is out now
PowerWash Simulator is as smart and engrossing as people say. That’s why I don’t play it, lest my actual home fall into a state of muck-slick neglect.
If you’re braver than me, you now have new venues to clean: the free Final Fantasy VII crossover is out now, and it lets you clean up Midgar like Cloud never could.

The Sims 4 Growing Together adds some much-needed spark to Sims’ relationships
The Sims 4‘s upcoming Growing Together expansion pack and its supporting free base game update. This was obviously a real treat for me as RPS’ resident Sims fanatic, but I’ll admit I went in with my expectations parked in neutral. After all, the theme of this new-content duo is young families, and that just isn’t part of the game I engage with too much these days.
Doom Eternal’s ray tracing now works on the Steam Deck
Steam Deck OS preview update, which is mainly about fixing Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty issues. With this update installed, you can enable proper, full-fat ray tracing on the Deck for the first time, specifically in Doom Eternal. Neat!
Gears Of War isn’t just a game, it’s tradition
Gears Of War days. And I think we’ve arranged, as is custom, to play Gears 6 whenever it arrives. Such is the bizarre way of things.
Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires’ 1.0 release shows that hubris is good, actually
Total War: Warhammer 3? What’s next, a title screen review? A lengthy personal essay about an attract mode clip? Can my cat get a review? First off, yes. Captain Waffles is a visceral tour-de-force that no fan of the genre should miss. 10/10. Secondly, you should know that Immortal Empires is, as far as Total War: Warhammer goes, the game mode. More importantly, this ridiculously expansive, years-spanning grand-strategy project exists as tangible proof that sometimes, the limitless hubris of man is actually rad as hell, despite what the ancient Greeks said. Euripides nuts, more like.
Blumhouse are adapting Dead By Daylight into a film
Dead By Daylight is apparently coming to Hollywood in the form of a new film adaptation. The two production companies involved are longtime horror fixtures Atomic Monster (who have made The Conjuring, Annabelle, and Malignant) and Blumhouse (the company behind Paranormal Activity, M3GAN, and Get Out.) The film doesn’t have any talent attached right now, but the two companies are currently looking for a director and a screenwriter. Blumhouse says, “it’s imperative we find someone who appreciates and loves the world as much as we do, to help us bring the game to the big screen”.
