Seven years of hype for "Hollow Knight: Silksong" literally took down Steam and Nintendo eShop servers when the game debuted this week as millions of fans rushed to buy and play the sequel. And we couldn't be happier for the small, devoted indie team that made it.

Meanwhile, "No Man's Sky" released its 6.0 update called "Voyagers" that allows players to build their own custom corvettes, which lead to an enormous spike in players for the 9-year-old game.

And Valve has patented a "Steam Frame," which sounds an awful lot like their rumored VR headset. Is new Steam hardware imminent?
