Steam Next Fest is a triannual event on Steam, where developers host demos and playtests of their next upcoming releases.
Of course we dove right into all the co-op fun of Next Fest October 2024 to bring you a curated list of all the games we played.
Keep in mind that these were all demos, so a little wonkiness is to be expected!
Nonetheless, some demos need a little more love and polish until their release - but hey, that's what game demos are for!
For the readers with little time, don't worry, we got you covered!
We divided the games into three categories: the highlights, the middle field, and the ones, that need some more time in the oven.
Without further ado, here is a quick overview of the ranking:
- Luma Island
- Lynked: Banner of the Spark
- Temtem: Swarm
- Unrailed 2: Back on Track!
- FragPunk
- Wild Woods
- Permafrost
- Atomic Picnic
- Wild Planet
- Project: Mist
- Cozynauts
