Relooted: The video game challenging colonial theft by letting players reclaim African artifacts
The game developed by South African studio Nyamakop, revealed at the Summer Game Fest in Los Angeles in June, is set in an imaginary future in which one plays as members of a pan-African crew tasked with reclaiming 70 stolen artefacts and returning them to their rightful homelands. read more Western museums boast of a wide variety of artefacts from across the world, though the manner in which they were sourced – especially from countries that European colonian powers had ruled over for centuries – remains a controversial to this day. And while these museums, including and especially the British Museum in London, may or may not agree to return the artefacts to the countries they were 'transported' from back in the day, a newly-launched game aims to fix historical wrongs by allowing players to 'steal' these artefacts from said museums. Albeit in the digital world. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD #FirstpostAfrica: A new South African video game titled Relooted is turning heads by letting players reclaim stolen African artefacts from Western museums. @alysonle tells you more. — Firstpost (@firstpost) June 30, 2025 Relooted, developed by South Africa game studio Nyamakop, was revealed at the Summer Game Fest in Los Angeles in June. It is a stealth-driven game set in an imaginary future in which one plays as members of a pan-African crew tasked with reclaiming 70 stolen artefacts – all of which exist in real life – and returning them to their rightful homelands. From Kenya's Ngadji drum to Zambia's 'Broken Hill Man' Artefacts such as the sacred Ngadji drum from Kenya's Pokomo community, which was confiscated by Britain in 1902 and is currently housed at the British Museum. 'Its removal destabilised the community,' producer Sithe Ncube, one of a team of 30 working on the game, told AFP, while adding that players 'can see where it's from… and read about the history.' 'Sometimes the stories behind these (artefacts) are actually very upsetting. It makes you see how much colonialism has affected… and shaped the world,' she added. The game also features the 'Broken Hill Man' – a skull said to be about 300,000 years old originating from Ncube's native country Zambia that is currently held at London's Natural History Museum. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'Africans, to actually see these things that are part of their own culture, have to get a visa, pay for flights and go to a European country. My whole life, I've never seen 'Broken Hill Man',' Ncube added. A French government report has estimated that up to 90 per cent of sub-Saharan African cultural heritage is in possession of Western nations. Ben Myres, creative director of the Johannesburg-based studio, goes on to add that the idea behind the bold title came from a family visit to the British Museum. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'So, actually, me and my parents were visiting London about seven years ago, and I went to some game dev bar and my parents went to the British Museum, and then we came home in the evening and hung out, and my mom was filled with rage because in the British Museum, they have the entire front of a temple from the south of Turkey that they managed to move to the British Museum. And she was just aghast at the scale of that sort of looting,' Myres told Shacknews. 'And then she literally said, 'You should make a game.' And I was like, 'Oh, I don't know about the mechanics. What are the mechanics going to be about lifting a building out of a museum? That's usually a little tricky.' So then I basically, since that point, have been trying to figure out how to make a heist game,' he added. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD While Nyamakop hasn't set an official release date for Relooted, one can add it to their wishlist on Steam, Xbox Series X|S and the Epic Games Store.

Netflix to remove multiple games from its mobile service: Why this may be concerning for fans of these titles
Netflix is set to remove 22 games, including the popular title Hades, from its mobile service next month. This move will mean that several games which are exclusively available on mobile via Netflix, such as Hades, Braid, and Katana Zero , may potentially disappear from Android and iOS platforms. The streaming giant has confirmed the list of titles that are set to leave next month via the Netflix app. Most of the affected games are set to depart the service by July 15, while Hades will be removed earlier, on July 1. Meanwhile, the game named Carmen Sandiego is also "leaving soon," but without a confirmed date. With these games leaving Netflix , their fans won't be able to access the titles as they are available exclusively on the streaming platform. List of games that are leaving Netflix Here's the full list of the games that Netflix is set to remove from its mobile service Battleship Braid, Anniversary Edition Carmen Sandiego CoComelon: Play with JJ Death's Door Diner Out: Merge Cafe Dumb Ways to Survive Ghost Detective Hades Katana Zero Lego Legacy: Heroes Unboxed Ludo King Monument Valley Monument Valley 2 Monument Valley 3 Rainbow Six: Smol Raji: An Ancient Epic SpongeBob: Bubble Pop F.U.N. TED Tumblewords The Case of the Golden Idol The Rise of the Golden Idol Vineyard Valley What the developers of these games said about Netflix removing them In an emailed statement to The Verge, Nigel Lowrie, a spokesperson for Devolver Digital , wrote, 'We are looking at bringing games that leave services like Poinpy, Katana Zero, and Death's Door to mobile stores as premium titles.' He added that each game's developer has its schedule for the mobile release, but Devolver is aiming to bring them to mobile storefronts 'as soon as possible.' It's important to note that Devolver Digital is no stranger to mobile ports—Exit the Gungeon, which was previously available exclusively through Apple Arcade, is set to launch as a paid title on iOS and Android after being removed from Apple's subscription service last year. 'This is all recent news for us and all the practical implications have yet to be worked out,' Andrejs Klavins, the lead designer and programmer of the studio behind the Golden Idol series, wrote on the Discord server for Color Gray Games. This move comes after Netflix paused its studio acquisitions and shut down a new AAA game studio before it could release anything. Moving forward, Netflix is expected to prioritise games tied to its shows, multiplayer party games, titles for kids, and games with established fan bases.

Who is Grace Ashcroft, and what is her role in Resident Evil 9 Requiem?
(Image via CAPCOM) The Resident Evil 9: Requiem trailer dropped at Summer Game Fest 2025 and shook the fandom to its core. Not because of another Umbrella experiment gone wrong (though that is happening again), but because Capcom introduced a brand-new face: Grace Ashcroft. But she's not just any side character. She's the main protagonist . Here's everything you need to know! Meet Grace Ashcroft – FBI Tech Genius with a Past Grace Ashcroft is an FBI technical analyst who's suddenly thrown into the field when mysterious deaths start cropping up. In the reveal trailer, Grace is pulled from her desk, literally mid-report, and tossed into the frontlines of a bizarre investigation to inform her about another victim of an unidentified disease. His words? "I need your eyes on the crime scene. The Wrenwood Hotel. That's where your mother was murdered." Yes, she's the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft from Resident Evil Outbreak. Resident Evil 9 LORE EXPLAINED | Who is Grace Ashcroft? When is it Set? | Resident Evil Requiem A Legacy Tied to Raccoon City So why does Grace matter? Longtime fans will recognize her last name. Her mother, Alyssa Ashcroft, was a playable character in Resident Evil Outbreak . She was an investigative journalist who escaped Raccoon City before it was nuked. Now, nearly three decades later, Grace is returning to her mother's past — to the ruins of Raccoon City itself. Alyssa was killed eight years ago while investigating the Wrenwood Hotel. Now, Grace is being pulled into the same mystery. There's a heavy implication that whatever happened to Alyssa may be connected to the new outbreak. The personal stakes? Through the roof. Grace vs. the Resident Evil Universe Grace isn't a soldier like Chris or a secret agent like Leon. She's a technical brain, meaning she's likely going to approach problems differently. Her FBI role suggests she'll rely on data, logic, and investigation — a refreshing contrast to the usual guns-blazing style of past protagonists. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Hamburg: GEERS sucht 700 Testhörer für Hörgeräte ohne Zuzahlung GEERS Undo But make no mistake, Grace isn't just there to push paper. She's in the thick of it — and the trailer shows her facing terrifying, infected creatures while trying to make sense of the patterns connecting the victims. Leon S. Kennedy in Resident Evil 9 Requiem Is Leon Kennedy in the Mix? Fans are buzzing. A hooded figure appears in a flashback during the trailer, and speculation is rampant that it's Leon S. Kennedy. Could he have known Alyssa? Was he at the Wrenwood Hotel the night she died? Could Grace and Leon's paths collide — or clash ? It's all mystery for now. But if Leon is involved, it sets up a powerful mentor vs. rookie dynamic — or something even darker. Grace Ashcroft isn't just a new character; she's a new chapter. With her FBI skills, tragic backstory, and ties to a forgotten survivor, Resident Evil 9: Requiem looks ready to deliver chills, chaos, and maybe a few long-awaited answers. February 27, 2026, can't come soon enough.
