Wizdom Academy is ready to graduate. Kipwak Studio and Lake On Fire will launch version 1.0 of the magical school management game on Steam on November 16, after three years of development and 18 months in Early Access.

Players step into the role of headmaster of a magical school. The job is to build the academy from the ground up, recruit students and staff, and keep its mana in balance, all while meeting the demands of the Directorium, the authority that governs the magical world.

Running the school is only part of the story. The Wizdom, the source of the world’s mana, is fading, and the headmaster must uncover the mystery behind the drought. That search leads beyond the academy walls, with expeditions to nearby villages and dealings with rival academies that have their own ambitions.

Every student who enrols brings something different to the school. There are more than 100 traits to discover and more than 50 Destinies for students to follow, shaping how they grow and what they can become. Legacies, maps and enchantments add further layers, giving each academy its own character and each playthrough a different shape.

The 1.0 launch marks the end of an Early Access period that began in April 2025. The developers plan to keep building on the game after launch, with further support planned into 2027.

Players can watch the 1.0 launch trailer below, and wishlist Wizdom Academy on Steam ahead of its November 16 release.

Humanity’s last hope is now a mission you can step inside. Project Hail Mary: Journey Among the Stars is out now, a mixed-reality adventure that tells a previously untold chapter of Andy Weir’s bestselling sci-fi universe.

The immersive mixed reality experience launched on PICO, Android XR and Meta Quest 3/3S. It comes from Maze Theory, the award-winning London-based immersive entertainment studio behind Peaky Blinders: The King’s Ransom and Doctor Who: The Edge of Time.

Players step into the role of Ryland Grace. Ryland Grace and his friend and crewmate Rocky must work together in the face of disaster to keep the Hail Mary intact and bring their world-saving cargo to Eridani — Rocky’s home planet, and Grace’s new home.

It is a story of trust and communication between species. As this mixed-reality experience blends your physical environment with the Hail Mary itself, players diagnose problems, improvise solutions and push the limits of science and engineering to keep the mission alive.

Along the way, players work alongside Rocky to keep the mission alive, diagnose failing systems and improvise scientific solutions, and manage their ship and its precious cargo as they travel through the stars — experiencing humanity’s last hope firsthand.
