Top 10 Games Releasing This Week on Steam
Steam is stacked with releases this week, but not all are equal. These are the ten that we think you should definitely keep an eye out for.
1. Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of the Rings Game
A cozy life sim set in Tolkien’s Shire, so of course this one has to be put here first. You farm, cook, and customize characters while exploring Hobbiton. It focuses on relaxing play rather than combat, perfect for fans of peaceful games. Check out Tales of the Shire here.
2. Grounded 2
A sequel to the backyard survival hit that we loved. Explore oversized environments, craft gear, and take on new insect threats. Cooperative play and expanded biomes build on what made the first game popular. Check out Grounded 2 here.
3. FUMES
Vehicular combat with a post-apocalyptic theme. Expect high-speed driving mixed with retro-inspired shooting mechanics. Perfect for players who like fast, chaotic action, or loved games like Twisted Metal back in the day. View FUMES on Steam here.
4. One-Eyed Likho
A psychological horror game based on mythology. It’s focused on tension, exploration, and story-driven scares rather than direct combat. Go to the One-Eyed Likho Steam page here.
5. Day of the Shell
A turn-based tactics game with roguelite elements. It combines squad management with exploration, creating replayable scenarios and varied mission outcomes. Check out Day of the Shell here.
6. Terminull Brigade
A free third-person shooter focused on PvE action. Roguelike runs, loot-driven builds, and squad-based missions make it appealing for quick cooperative sessions. View Terminal Brigade here.
7. Inkborn
A roguelike deckbuilder that rewards experimentation with card-based strategies. Procedural runs and evolving decks give you a really solid amount of strategy and depth. Check out Inkborn here.
8. Star Vortex
An action RPG looter shooter with a top-down perspective. It has fast combat, loot progression, and early access for players who want to influence development. Star Vortex is found here.
9. Primal Planet
A story-rich 2D metroidvania with vibrant worlds and challenging platforming. Exploration and narrative are at its core, making it great for those of you who like classic adventure styles. You can see Primal Planet on Steam here.
10. NIDANA
A surreal walking simulator focused on abstract environments and a relaxing (if not a little strange) tone. It has a really good amount of exploration-driven gameplay for players looking to slow down and enjoy visuals and atmosphere. NIDANA is found here.
Final Blurb
This week on Steam has everything from cozy life in Tales of the Shire to high-speed chaos in FUMES and tactical planning in Day of the Shell. Whatever you want to do, there’s a game for you.
