Out of Bounds Showcase 2026 – 6 October 2026

Where possible we have included all known release dates, demo availability, known platforms and most recent trailers.

Bingone (PC)

Forget everything you know about bingo. In BINGONE, you can bend, break, and completely abuse the rules to create ridiculous strategies.

Fill your board. Chase combos. Stack bonuses. Find ways to turn one innocent little bingo into an increasingly unhinged chain reaction.

Assemble your ultimate combo by:

  • Unlocking Stickers: Discover over 150+ powerful stickers that apply effects and create combos in your run. Shuffle all the numbers in the ballot. Bring already-prized numbers back to life. Turn numbers into bombs. Make one effect trigger another effect, which triggers another effect, which triggers another effect…
  • Collect all the Amulets: Gather over 50+ amulets that can enhance your stickers, change the rules of your run, and create powerful synergies with the rest of your build.
  • Defeat Bombi’s friends: Over 20+ bosses are waiting for you, each with their own unique twists and mechanics. Every boss forces you to rethink how you play. The strategy that worked perfectly in your last run might suddenly become completely useless.

Infamous Keepers (PC)

Defend your dungeon and your job! Tower Defense meets Roguelite in Infamous Keepers. Use strategy and some clever trickery to defeat waves of enemies: set up towers and deadly traps, send your employees into the line of fire, and slaughter any intruders left standing yourself.

Sombras: Negative Frames (PC, PS5, Switch, Switch 2, Xbox Series)

‘SOMBRAS: negative frames’ is a nostalgic narrative game with light horror elements and an engaging photography system exploring themes of youth, art, mixed identity, and dysfunctional family systems.

Shiomi Alterio, a Japanese-Spanish photography student, lives with her father in a quaint Japanese town after her parents’ recent divorce, far from the life in Europe she was forced to leave behind.

One night, Shiomi is engulfed by a dark dimension made of familiar streets, hungry shadows, and a cast of girls that look just like her…

Help Shiomi return home by taking pictures of unusual sights, surviving unsettling encounters, and reuniting every single fragment of her broken self. ‘SOMBRAS: negative frames’ is the second game of Maboroshi Artworks, the creators of the award-winning game ‘Last Time I Saw You’.”

The game releases 3 December 2026. A demo is available on PC and PS5.

Blade And Madness (PC)

Blade and Madness, a roguelite deckbuilder where turns play out simultaneously and every choice matters. As madness creeps in, your cards change, the battlefield twists, and enemies grow more unpredictable. Adaptation isn’t optional, it’s the only way to survive… or give in to the dark.

Midgardr (PC)

A board game where you play as a Duke sent to build and protect a village at the edge of the realm. Every choice you make will shape its future. But be aware: the board itself may not be all it seems. Will your village thrive… or crumble beneath truths yet unknown? Are you really just… a Duke?

Void Reaver (PC)

You’re stranded on a crumbling alien planet with nothing but your weapon and an empty backpack. To survive this sci-fi bullet heaven, you’ll need to master the art of aggressive organization and nimble movements.

Climb a towering alien monolith while facing hordes of enemies, collect experimental tech and jigsaw your inventory into an unstoppable engine of destruction. The Void is waiting, and your inventory space is limited.

Pack light. Shoot heavy.

Winter Whiskers (PC)

Winter Whiskers is a short, cozy snow-cleaning adventure. The player will use their snow vacuum to clear a majority of the snow, and will be introduced to 3 other tools along the way that they can use to blow off snow, clear ice on the ground, and break out objects that have been frozen!

There are 4 areas to clear, each a bit bigger then the last. Along the way, the player will be introduced to various townfolk and asked to help them with odd jobs around town (primarily fetch quest style). Once the player has cleared all the areas, the Winter Festival will begin! This is the end of our game, where the player can chat with the townsfolk again, play small games, and just enjoy themselves.

PECADO (PC)

Pecado is a first-person psychological survival horror game set in rural Spain during the 1990s. Explore a decaying environment shaped by religion, folklore, and ancient secrets as you try to uncover what happened.

Survival will be key: limited resources, exploration, and sinister presences will force the player to decide when to confront danger and when to hide or flee. The story gradually unfolds through a fragmented narrative, revealing an increasingly terrifying reality and the presence of sinister entities lurking in the darkness, as the line between faith, superstition, and reality begins to fade.
