Glowmade, the Guildford-based studio behind last year's short-lived Amazon-published online multiplayer dungeon crawler King of Meat, has unveiled its next project: Rogue Fortune, a single-player top-down roguelite that fuses fast, skill-based combat with a geometric inventory-management system the studio is calling its puzzle-powered mechanic. The game was shown off during a press briefing attended by Wccftech and led by Glowmade co-founder and studio head Jonny Hopper (whom I interviewed two years ago about King of Meat) ahead of its public reveal trailer, which happened today during the Xbox showcase at Gamescom 2026. According to Hopper, Rogue Fortune casts players as […]

NVIDIA's Vera Rubin platform offers disruptive token throughput at a much lower cost than Blackwell, showcasing its Agentic AI prowess. NVIDIA Software Stack Optimizations Continue To Propel Blackwell, But Vera Rubin Sits In A Whole Different League For Agentic AI Use Cases The latest on-silicon agentic AI performance results were measured by NVIDIA using real-world agentic coding trajectories. The benchmark used was SemiAnalysis AgentX, which evaluates AI infrastructure such as Vera Rubin in agentic-coding inference workloads across various models such as Kimi K3, MiniMax M3, GLM5.3, Qwen3.5, and DeepSeek V4 Pro. The following table explains the key metrics of AgentX: […]

CoreWeave has committed to a rental plan for NVIDIA's A100 GPUs through 2029, highlighting how CUDA upgrades make older platforms viable for extended durability. NVIDIA A100 Might Be Two Generations Old, But CoreWeave Has Found A Use For It In AI Through 2029 The NVIDIA A100 AI accelerators are part of the Ampere GPU generation, which launched back in 2020. The 2nd Generation Tensor Core chip has been out for six years, and by this time, we would usually expect it to be phased out, but that's not the case as Jensen implies that NVIDIA's chips are designed for extended […]

NVIDIA's H200 AI GPUs are finally shipping to China, as reported by U.S. officials, marking the return of the banned chip. China Softens Its Position on NVIDIA GPUs As First H200 Shipments Now Headed To Chinese AI Firms The NVIDIA Hopper story in China has been a roller coaster ride so far. When Hopper was launched, US export restrictions for the Chinese market were in full swing. These pushed NVIDIA to release an export-compliant variant called the H20 for China, which ended up being severely cut down, but still a viable option against what China's domestic chipmakers had to offer. […]

NVIDIA CEO has said that China should not have access to its most advanced AI chips, such as Blackwell or Rubin. Blackwell or Rubin AI Chips are a no-go for China, but NVIDIA's CEO Wants US Firms To Continue To Compete In Global Markets The US AI policy shift towards China has been ongoing since NVIDIA's Hopper generation of chips. Export controls restricted NVIDIA from selling its bleeding-edge chips to Chinese firms & this ban has extended into the Blackwell generation.

As the AI industry enters the maturity phase, traditional terms have become outdated, which is why NVIDIA suggests that the new ways to think about AI TCO should be evaluated based on "Cost Per Token". NVIDIA Wants Everyone To Rethink AI TCO With "Cost Per Tokens" Metric Tokens are the single most important metric for AI. While yesterday's data centers were evaluated on their raw computing power, today's AI factories are evaluated on their token output. But it's not important for who does the most tokens, efficiency and cost are still the values that matter the most. That is why […]

Grasshopper Manufacture is known for having created a bunch of weird and unique games, including but not limited to Killer7; Lollipop Chainsaw and of course No More Heroes. One of the studio’s more forgotten projects however was Let it Die – a free-to-play roguelike released back in 2016. 10 years later and this online-only experience is set to be shut down; though an offline version is on the way.

Taking to their blog to make the announcement, the team at Grasshopper Manufacture wrote: “LET IT DIE is a survival action game that was released in 2016 and has been downloaded over 9 million times worldwide. We have been operating online for over nine years, thanks to the support we have received for our unique environment and gameplay. LET IT DIE will put an end to its nine-year online run and go offline.”

Come the 31st of August, Let it Die will officially die and will no longer be playable online. As mentioned however, the team is working on an offline version of the game which will be made available via a single one-time purchase with no additional DLC or microtransactions.

Given that one of the biggest complaints with Let it Die back in the day was its rather heavy monetisation practices, having a fully-featured offline version of the game which doesn’t require you to buy revive tokens could make for a far improved experience.

All that said, regardless of your thoughts towards Let it Die, having the always-online experience being fully reworked into a premium offline title is welcome to see, and means that Let it Die will not disappear into the ether as so many other free-to-play titles have, come their inevitable demise.
