The most popular video game in the world this week isn't Fortnite or Minecraft. In fact, you've probably never heard of it.

But 9 million people were playing it concurrently. For context, Steam had 11.5 million concurrent players across ALL GAMES that same day.

So, WTF is going on with "Grow a Garden," a game inside Roblox that a teenager whipped up in 3 days?

Also: Cloud streaming just got slightly better on your Steam Deck, and Colette sends an update from the front lines of Expedition 33.
