Where to get every game, right at the top
Since last night's post, Vi.ki has shipped seven releases. There are no new vikis today; instead, every one of the 27 home pages got easier to use, and the daily passes caught some big news. Here is what is new.
Where to get the game, before anything else
Every viki's home page now opens, right under its title, with a line that says how to get the game and where. On ArcheAge Chronicles it reads "Pre-order: Steam ($29.99, Early Access Nov 3, 2026)"; on Fable it lists Xbox, the PlayStation Store and Steam; on Deadlock, which is still invite-only, it tells you a Steam friend who plays has to invite you, and links the page on how to get one. It is the same row as the first line of the page's Quick facts, so the two always agree.
Beside it sits a link to the game's official website. 24 of the 27 vikis have one so far. We only add the maker's own site, after checking that it loads, never a fan site, so a viki whose official site we have not verified simply goes without for now.
Links to other sites open in a new tab
Every link that leaves Vi.ki, from a store page to a news post in a page's sources, now opens in a new tab, so the page you were reading stays where you left it. Links between Vi.ki pages and vikis still open in place. While we were at it, we replaced Steam news links that opened an empty page with links to the real announcements, across the vikis.
The Steam player chart comes first
On the home page of every viki with a Steam player chart, the chart now sits above the release timeline, so you can see at a glance how many people are playing before you read where the game has been. Try it on Deadlock or Slay the Spire 2.
The vikis keep growing
Two daily passes and an Aion 2 update improved pages across the vikis, with the news of the day. A few highlights:
- ArcheAge Chronicles: on Oct 27, 2026, XL Games set Early Access on Steam for Nov 3, 2026, at 3:00 PM PST, and opened pre-orders at $29.99 with the Dawn Pioneer Set costume. The viki updated its home page, its release date page and the rest the same day, along with what Early Access holds and what is still not announced, such as a date for the console versions.
- Fable: Playground's new "Visit Wraithmarsh" post describes the flooded marsh in Albion's north, its one town, Sodden Dorrit, and the wreck of HMS Jubilee. The Albion page now has a Wraithmarsh section, and says plainly what the post leaves open.
- Aion 2: NC held free server transfers on Oct 26 and resumed them on Oct 27, now for characters of level 45 or higher. The server pages give the new rule and the dates, with NC's notices as the source.
