Rockstar Games has spent years building hype for Grand Theft Auto 6, with every trailer and update becoming a major event for fans. But what if that same dramatic treatment was applied to a very different kind of video game? One starring a certain green ogre, perhaps? That's apparently the thinking behind the official reveal of Shrek 2 Remastered, which has officially been announced with a trailer that channels nothing less than the cinematic style of Rockstar's GTA 6 marketing.

Updated: Oct 20, 2026 10:48pm UTCEagle-eyed Rockstar fans have noticed camera crews recording convoys of flashy GTA 6-themed cars in Miami, creating speculation over a new live-action trailer. Rockstar Games has been conquering the city of Miami over the last few weeks as it ramps up to the release of GTA 6, which is set in a fictional version of Miami called Vice City. As a result, Rockstar has plastered all kinds of ads around the area, sent in a Vice City blimp to fly over Florida, and announced unique celebrations like a Vice City-themed NBA game with the Miami Heat in November. It's an unprecedented marketing campaign that has quite literally turned the city into a real-life version of GTA's universe. With that said, there appear to be a variety of things happening right under Miamians' noses without much explanation. Fans have started noticing exotic sports cars driving around the city in convoys, sometimes joined by a camera crew. These aren't just ordinary cars, as they're modified to resemble ones from the GTA series.

With an unmanageably colossal heap of demos on offer, a massive number of which look to be filled with AI-generated garbage, the current Steam Next Fest is a serious bummer. How on earth is any adult with limited free time supposed to muck through the stables of slop to find something worthwhile? Increasingly, people have been creating ad hoc slop-free recommendation lists on social media in addition to sharing browser plugins and other tools that people can use to filter out games that have a genAI disclosure. But even with tools to separate the good game wheat from the slop chaff, that’s still a lot of games to sift through, so I’m gonna throw my own recommendation onto the pile with the only demo I’ve made time for this Next Fest: Fallbearers. I found the game via Bluesky, wooed to its Steam page by the game’s trailer alone. Imagine a game that combines Bennet Foddy’s track-and-field simulator QWOP with the “Coffin Flop” bit from Tim Robinson’s HBO sketch show I Think You Should Leave—that’s Fallbearers. In it, you—by yourself or you with a friend—control two Victorian-era pallbearers as they try to transport the dearly departed from the hearse to the grave.
