Monument Valley 3, along with its latest expansion The Garden of Life, has officially returned as it’s now out on mobile, just several months after the game was released from the clutches of Netflix.

The Monument Valley title was originally a Netflix exclusive, but was removed from the platform in July. 

At the time, the game’s dedicated Facebook page provided an update to its fans, where they described the change as being “sadly out of our control.” They also said the news was unexpected, but urged that they will be focusing on bringing Monument Valley 3 to more players than ever before.

Going back to 2024, when a social media post shared the Monument Valley 3 trailer with the Netflix logo emblazoned on it, many left comments asking if an iOS or Android version was coming. For those that have been waiting for an update since its removal from the streaming service, the Garden of Life expansion has been launched on both iOS and Android this week (December 3).

What to expect from Monument Valley 3, The Garden of Life

The new expansion is now available for free to all Monument Valley 3 players on mobile and will see players have to guide the heroine Noor through different landscapes while manipulating structured and shifting perspectives to uncover hidden paths and solve puzzles.

It’s set after the events of the main game and aims to tell a story of people coming together to build a new future. And for the first time in the series, players can find a collection of hidden bonus puzzles through joining Boatem and journeying across the floating village to find them.

In total, The Garden of Life adds four new additional story chapters to Noor’s voyage, with these aiming to be a story of hope.

More than a year after the initial release, the Duck Detective sequel, ‘The Ghost of Glamping,’ has officially been adapted for mobile release.

The indie studio Happy Broccoli Games announced its foray into the world of iOS and Android last week, with the game now able to be downloaded for free. It was initially released on PC last May, with the reviews on Steam being largely positive.

Within this new addition, the mystery game continues as players must work with a new partner to unravel the truth and catch the ghost haunting the campsite. There are a few throwbacks that can be appreciated if you have played the first game of the series, but you can jump right in with this one if not.

What are the features of Duck Detective: Ghost Glamping?

For those playing on mobile for the first time, the game involves interviewing suspects, inspecting evidence, and deducing the truth to get to the bottom of the mystery.

“This campsite might have ghosts, but the real thing haunting Eugene McQuacklin is his failed marriage and bread addiction. Can he escape the shadows of his past?,” the studio has teased.

Ghost Glamping is a stand-alone sequel to the popular Duck Detective: The Secret Salami, with the latest introduction including a fully voice-acted cast of characters and the need to crack the case to help out the detective Eugene McQuaklin. 

This is definitely not a game you can sink your teeth into for hours on end, but the creators have made this well-known as they highlight its a two to three hour-long cozy mystery game.
The reviews often highlight how short and sweet the game is, with one user stating it’s “perfect to play through on a chill Saturday night.” Another summed it up with “fun little game with great art style, voice acting, and character. Hoping there are more mysteries to solve in the future.”

An offline playable showcase of the all-new RPG Solo Leveling: KARMA has taken place, with fans able to experience the game’s hands-on demo for the very first time.

Netmarble, the developer and publisher behind the game, says the demo generated “strong interest and positive reactions” throughout the event, which was held at G-STAR 2025 in Busan, South Korea.

For those looking to play the latest edition, based on the Solo Leveling franchise, it hasn’t yet been publicly released, as it’s still in development. However, upon launch, it will be available on both mobile and PC. 

Two videos, a trailer, and a first reveal have also been added to the game’s official YouTube channel, with this being the first announcement on the platform since an exclusive reveal trailer was published four months ago.

This upcoming release will see the universe of the global hit anime series expanded with a new storyline set in the Dimensional Gap, where Sung Jinwoo returns and must endure a conflict among Monarchs. Players must recover fragments of their lost memories to restore the Broken Cup of Reincarnation, which will drive forward both narrative progression and gameplay challenge.

Event allowed company to gather ‘valuable’ feedback on new Solo Leveling game

At the event, players were able to experience two dedicated demo modes designed to highlight the game’s core combat loop. “We are thrilled to present Solo Leveling: KARMA in a public, hands-on environment for the first time,” said Executive Producer Do Hyung Kwon from Netmarble Neo. 

“G-STAR 2025 allowed us to gather valuable feedback directly from players, and we will continue refining the experience as development progresses.”

The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross is getting a major shake-up, as the developer Netmarble celebrates the six and a half year anniversary of the game’s launch.

With the celebrations in mind, a range of anniversary events have been introduced to the new ‘6.5th Apocalypse Fes: Succession of Light and Darkness’ alongside fresh story content and a brand-new hero.

One of the most substantial changes is the addition of Prophecy Knight Tristan, who you’ll recognise as the son of Meliodas and Elizabeth if you played the original The Seven Deadly Sins series. Tristan is one of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse and wields both Goddess and Demon powers, meaning he becomes the first hero in the game to have both Light and Darkness attributes at the same time.

Chapter 4 of ‘The Four Knights of the Apocalypse’ has been released, as well as a PvE Co-op Battle mode where up to four players can team up with two decks each.

What’s new in The Seven Deadly Sins?

To celebrate the anniversary of its launch, a ‘Poll Draw’ means players can vote for their favorite heroes and create a custom lineup featuring Tristan as a fixed UR plus five additional UR heroes, as well as 15 SSR heroes selected from the finalists of the poll.

“Players are guaranteed an SSR or UR hero at 300 and 600 mileage, and upon reaching 900 mileage, they can choose either the newest Tristan or one of the top four UR heroes from the poll rankings,” Netmarble says in the update.

Anniversary-specific events have been added, too, including Festival Check-In, Special Missions, Jumping Box, and Event Boss Battles. It’s through participating in the Jumping Box event that players can gain access to abundant growth materials and fully trained heroes.

Other anniversary activities include the Percival’s Lucky Card Event, Solgres Reward Dungeon, Diamond Perks Event, and boosted Fight Festival rewards.

Since its launch, The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross has recorded over 70 million downloads worldwide, and it’s only available via App Store and Google Play.
