Deckline – ReviewThere’s a lot of meaning hiding in plain sight in the title of Room Games’ Deckline. It’s a card game, first and foremost, so the ‘deck’ makes sense. Its setting is that of war, and the ‘line’ likely refers to the frontline of that war. And then there’s the obvious ‘decline’. If you hadn’t guessed it yet, there’s a lot to unpack here, and we haven’t gotten into the game itself! With Deckline arriving on consoles last week, there hasn’t been a better time to get to grips with it to see if the game comes up trumps or if it slowly but surely makes our own sanity decline. Story Rather than the (unfortunately familiar) backdrop of one of the World Wars, Deckline opts for a much smaller conflict. The game never explicitly names the war that it is set against, and the 1990s Eastern European setting is vague enough that there are multiple candidates. Not that it truly matters whether this is the Croatian War of Independence or the Bosnian War, as Deckline’s war itself serves as a way to create tension and atmosphere instead of a history lesson. The game opens with a conversation that already seals the fate of our unnamed protagonist. He and his fellow soldiers have become trapped in a bunker behind enemy lines. With no ammunition, no communication with command, and no chance of escape, the soldiers gather around a table and play one final round of the traditional card game Durak to distract themselves from the situation outside. As the game progresses, conversations, environmental changes, and the soldiers’ own behavior reflect their growing fear, exhaustion, and deteriorating mental state while artillery and explosions continue in the distance. Graphics Get used to the dimly lit bunker that you find yourself in, because it’s the only environment you’ll get to see in Deckline. The game’s visual style is deliberately minimalist and retro-inspired, using low-poly models, blocky textures, and muted colors. This aesthetic highlights the game’s bleak, war-torn setting and emphasizes the unsettling atmosphere. Lighting in particular is important to the mood, with flickering lamps and long shadows across the card table building tension. Visually, Deckline is a lot more interesting than you’d expect from what is, in essence, a simple card game. The inherent austerity of Deckline’s visuals serves a dual purpose: not only does it support the mood, but it also makes it much easier to overlook the game’s rougher edges. Sound The raging conflict going on outside of the bunker provides a good chunk of Deckline’s ambience. Distant artillery fire, explosions, and the muffled sounds of combat outside constantly remind you of the war unfolding beyond the walls. These sounds are intentionally vague and never fully reveal what is happening outside, allowing your own imagination to fill in the details and increase the sense of dread. Ambience makes up the majority of Deckline’s soundscape too. While there is voiced dialogue, this is only used sparsely, and the soldiers mostly sit in silence, awaiting their fate. Gameplay At Deckline’s core is Durak, a traditional card game using a 36-card deck. In Durak, each player is given six cards, and one suit is randomly chosen as the so-called trump suit. Players then take turns ‘attacking’ by placing cards on the table, with the defender beating them by playing a higher card of the same suit or a trump card. After each turn, players draw from the deck to refill their hands to six cards. The goal is simply to get rid of all your cards, with the last player holding cards becoming the Durak, Russian for fool. Now, had Deckline just been Durak with a war skin, then it wouldn’t be all that remarkable. Durak isn’t the most compelling, or even deep game, and Deckline resultingly isn’t a game that has a lot to offer in terms of mechanics. However, the game incorporates its setting into the gameplay, making for a convincing, immersive experience. While playing, you’ll occasionally have to interact with objects around you: a flickering lamp needs to be adjusted, you’ll need to take anxiety pills to calm your shaking hands, or light up a cigarette. If you ignore these elements, your stress level increases, making it harder to focus on the game. There are multiple endings based on what happens during the game and your actions in between turns. We did find that the console controls weren’t the smoothest, and hampered our ability to respond on time to those random events. This is a game that is probably best enjoyed with a mouse rather than a controller, and we were disappointed to find that Deckline didn’t support mouse controls on Switch 2. The overall Deckline experience is short, with the main narrative taking around an hour or two. Those multiple endings do add some longevity and replay value to the game. There’s also the option to toggle story mode off and instead focus on online leaderboards for competitive play. We should note that although the PC version of Deckline reflects its short runtime within its €2.99 price, the console version is significantly more expensive at €6.99. While the latter remains relatively cheap, it’s still a remarkable uptick. Combined with the game being more suited to mouse controls, we’d recommend opting for the PC version. Conclusion By combining a simple, traditional card game with environmental interactions and the ever-present psychological tension of war, Deckline makes for a slow-paced, narrative-focused experience rather than a mechanically complex strategy title. The value here comes mostly from that unique concept and atmosphere, although the game is held back by its lack of gameplay depth and mechanical limitations.

Where Winds Meet’s Hexi Expansion Chapter 2 Arriving April 2
NetEase Games and Everstone Studio announced that the Chapter 2 update for Where Wind Meet ' s Hexi expansion will release on April 2, 2026. Following the first chapter in Jade Gate Pass, the second chapter sees players enter the new region of Liangzhou, which is said to feature "romantic aesthetics with the harsh reality of a fortified city" and is set to undergo a transformation through an event in the storyline. The full Hexi expansion takes place outside of the game’s main timeline, taking players into a dream hearkening back to the Tang Dynasty era of China. The third and final chapter in the expansion, which takes place in the region of Qinchuan, is set to release by the end of May 2026.
Chapter 2 will contain two main storylines. "Liangzhou Melody" follows a musician's search for a hometown that he has never known, while "Paper Moon" sees a conflict in a Buddhist hall changing the destinies of two different characters. It also adds a new sect, Raging Tides. Born from the military, it features a heavy contrast between strict discipline and free-spirited nature and love for wine. The update further adds a new weapon, the Heng Blade, which uses a deflect-and-counter style and features combat animations designed by Stephen Tung Wai. Other additions include new challenges, quests, and world bosses.
Where Winds Meet is currently available on PC, PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android. The game is set in the years leading to the start of the Northern Song Dynasty in China (second half of the 9th century CE). Players take on the role of a wandering swordsman, who must choose whether to uphold their moral code or live for themselves in a time ravaged by fighting. The game features fast-paced, Wuxia -style combat and implements many aspects of Chinese martial arts.

Sony Announces PlayStation 5 Pro Upgraded PSSR For Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Crimson Desert, And More
The PlayStation 5 Pro is one of the most powerful consoles on the market right now, and today, Sony has unveiled a selection of recent releases that will be taking advantage of the machine's processing power . These games use the upgraded version of PSSR (which stands for "PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution"), which analyzes the pixels in each frame of gameplay and upscales the image to allow for finer detail. The upgraded PSSR made its debut with Resident Evil Requiem last month, but now it's rolling out to eleven more games. The video above is included in the PS Blog post. You'll likely need to view the video on a high-resolution display to see the finer differences. Today's blog post, written by Sony Interactive Entertainment Content Communications' senior director Sid Shuman, reads, "With this latest evolution, image reconstruction is more precise, motion stability is improved, and developers have greater flexibility to balance performance and fidelity on PS5 Pro." The blog continues with a list of games taking advantage of the feature, along with quotes from each developer that worked on it, and sample screenshots. Games added to the upgraded PSSR list today include Silent Hill f, Silent Hill 2 (2024), Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Control, Alan Wake 2, Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Rise of the Ronin, Nioh 3, Monster Hunter Wilds, and Dragon's Dogma 2. The upgrade will be a part of the next PS5 system software update, which began rolling out today at 10 a.m. Pacific time. Additionally, Assassin's Creed Shadows and Cyberpunk 2077 will get the upgrade via patches to be released "in the coming weeks," while Crimson Desert will launch with upgraded PSSR this Thursday, March 19 . While the above games are specifically built for the upgraded PSSR, the blog post also clarifies that you can try it with any game in your library by activating the feature in the Screen and Video section of the settings menu, though results will vary.
