Ahead of the release of A Quiet Place: Day One, the franchise is continuing its media dominance. Saber Interactive announced that it’s publishing A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead, a first-person, single-player horror video game due out later in 2024 for PC, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series X/S.

The game takes place in the Quiet Place universe, but features a whole new story about a woman trying to survive the alien apocalypse while dealing with “the anguish of interpersonal family conflicts and her own inner fears.” The gameplay, similar to the movies, will focus on stealth as you try to get around the creatures without making a sound, and scrounging up items and tools that you can use to improvise your way out of situations.

It’s being developed by Stormind Games, most known to video game fans as the studio behind the Remothered survival horror games, but it’s also done work as a support studio. The game was previously announced as in development with iLLOGIKA and EP1T0ME back in 2021, although it hasn’t received any updates since then. The initial reveal just said that Saber would be publishing A Quiet Place video game that would feature an original story in the movie universe, and that it would be out in 2022.

Ahead of The Road Ahead‘s reveal, the website shows Saber and EP1T0ME’s logo, but not iLLOGIKA’s. The press release, however, does not list EP1ToME anywhere.

A Quiet Place, which came out in 2018, was a huge success for Paramount, grossing $188 million domestically on a $17 million budget, according to Box Office Mojo. The sequel, released in 2020, had a much larger $55 million budget and earned $136.4 million domestically (pretty good for a pandemic-era release).

If you can’t wait for a whole video game where you sneak around quietly, you can catch A Quiet Place: Day One, a prequel to the successful John Krasinski-directed franchise on June 28. There’s also a third main series entry that was originally set for release in 2025, but it’s since been delayed.

Epic MegaJam 2026

Epic Games has just announced the 2026 Epic AI MegaJam, which is looking to see how much game development can be squeezed into a very short window. This is running from November 12 through November 15.

Participants can work alone or in teams of up to five people, build in Unreal Engine or Unreal Editor for Fortnite, and bring along “as many AI agents as you want.” Epic explicitly encourages coding agents, AI-generated assets, audio tools, writing tools, and other AI systems. The official event page literally says "Vibe your way to $50k.”

It’s turning into a pretty good time to be a Monster Hunter fan who plays on a phone. Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Outlanders will launch on Android and iOS on October 29, giving the series a new mobile-first game just as Monster Hunter Rise is also preparing to make the jump to smartphones through Netflix.

Outlanders is being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studio Group under license and supervision from Capcom. Unlike Rise, which appears to be the full console and PC game adapted for mobile, Outlanders is a free-to-play survival hunting game made specifically for phones.

Phantom Blade Zero makes me think Sony might have a point about going all digital
Physical games still matter, but when the disc isn't a complete copy of the game, the argument for keeping it becomes harder to make.

I'm a big supporter of physical games. There's something satisfying about owning a disc, lending it to a friend, or grabbing a bargain without waiting for a digital storefront to approve the price. But Phantom Blade Zero has me questioning one of the biggest arguments in the physical-versus-digital debate. The game's digital version launches on October 29, 2026, while its physical PS5 editions, including Standard, Deluxe, and Ultimate versions, won't arrive until 2027.

And there's another wrinkle: the digital version reportedly needs up to 134GB of storage, raising questions about how much of the game can actually fit on a standard Blu-ray disc. A standard PS5 Ultra HD Blu-ray disc maxes out at 100GB, so Phantom Blade Zero may need to ship across multiple discs or require players to download additional data to finish installing it. Either way, the idea of popping in a disc and having the complete game ready to play gets a little murkier.
