Stardew Valley launched its "everything" update
Fish ponds! New marriage events! New items! New hairstyles! Tailoring! A new farm map for co-op! A new community building to unlock! Bug fixes! Everything!
Dota 2 and Underlords welcomed the Outlanders
While new heroes Snapfire (a lizard-riding auntie) and Void Spirit (a spooky voyeur) get top billing, Dota 2's version of the matching Outlander Update in particular brings many other huge changes. The shape of a Dota match is changed a lot by this.
