The closed alpha test for Deathgarden, the new “asymmetrical multiplayer action game” from Behaviour Interactive, will begin on May 9 at 12:00 p.m. PT / 3:00 p.m. ET and run until May 13 at the end of day, the developer announced. Keys will be sent gradually to users who signed up on the game’s official website.
The goal of the first phase of the closed alpha is to test the online infrastructure and gather feedback on the core gameplay.
According to creative director Ashley Pannel, Behavior Interactive wants to create a competitive game “where controls are always responsive for both the runner and the hunter. It is about the users’ abilities and the choices they make to master the map.” For each round, on top of choosing a class, players have access to a skill tree where they need to choose which powers to upgrade.
“Mixed with the agility of the runner and hunter, the map elevation helps create memorable moments where players hide, escape and outsmart their opponent using the terrain and buildings,” said Pannell.
A Twitch live stream kicking off the closed alpha will be held on May 9 at 11:00 a.m. PT / 2:00 p.m. ET.

INSOMNIA: The Ark is a complex story-driven RPG that takes place on a colossal space metropolis brimming with the secrets of a long-gone civilization. Develop your character, explore lovingly handcrafted locations, interact with peculiar NPCs and factions, craft equipment and try to stay alive.
You awaken on Object 6 - a retro-futuristic space station set on a 400-year journey in search of a new home. Stricken with a rare psychological disease, you have to uncover macabre secrets and the truth behind humanity’s journey to the ghost-like Evacuation Point.
Key Features
• Exploration is rewarding... and dangerous - Search for valuable technology and resources in the confines of Object 6. Pay attention - INSOMNIA's nuanced world can conceal unexpected quests from treacherous characters, as well as savage enemies and deadly hazards.

• Personalized journey - Break free from character classes and unwanted grind with a flexible perk system combined with a huge amount of craftable items and equipment for an experience unique to every player.
• Your choices matter - INSOMNIA offers an intricate, non-linear storyline with 'points of no return'. Navigate a system of thorny relations with characters and factions and make tough decisions that affect the game world. Each major problem can be solved using a variety of different (and sometimes unexpected) solutions.
• Strategic real-time combat - INSOMNIA features both close and ranged combat, as well as destroyable covers. Choose your gear wisely - every armor and weapon type in the game has its own tactical virtues and shortcomings.
• A rich universe - Experience the game's rich lore through retro-futuristic noir visuals with elements of dieselpunk. Witness man-made apocalyptic landscapes imbued with a dark noir jazz soundtrack and echoes of a decaying civilization.

Nostalgic Train, a “heartrending, mysterious first-person adventure / walking simulator” set in the Japanese countryside, will launch for PC via Steam on June 13 in Japan for 2,000 yen, developer Tatamibeya announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
It’s so bright, you can hardly see. Engulfed by the extreme humidity and sound of the cicadas. Mixed with the faint smell of the sea. Sitting on the wood bench at an old station. Why is it that you’re here, and what is it that you’re doing…?
The scenery is that of a nostalgic countryside. “Natsugiri” is written on the station. A single-track rail line. You, as if thrown into the light, awaken without any memories. Mysteriously enough, there was no one to be seen on this unknown land…
In a Japanese countryside created in Unreal Engine 4, solve the mystery of the missing people of Natsugiri, as well as yourself, through a somewhat heartrending, mysterious first-person adventure / walking simulator.
The game features “Two Flickers at the End of the Trip” Story Mode, as well as a Free Mode where you can explore the world of Natsugiri.
Created by independent developer Tatamibeya, immerse yourself into an illusive world that combines story and scenery.
