The Last WinterCon X — Event Report
WinterCon X took place last weekend, on January 10–11, and I had the chance to visit what is, to the best of my knowledge, the biggest winter-season cosplay and geek convention in Europe.

Active Matter Hands-On – First Look at Gaijin’s New Shooter
Meeting Active Matter at Gamescom At Gamescom 2025 I stopped by Gaijin Entertainment’s booth for a hands-on session with their upcoming title Active Matter. Officially it positions itself as a military shooter, but what I played felt more like an extraction roguelite horror looter-shooter. Every part of that description matters, and in this first-impression write-up I’ll share why. The game is developed by Matter Team, one of Gaijin’s internal studios.
