This collaboration marks the third and largest yet, significantly boosting the game's already impressive customization options.

New additions include iconic titles such as Divinity: Original Sin 2, Don’t Starve, Enter the Gungeon, Cult of the Lamb, 1000x Resist, Potion Craft, Shovel Knight, and Warframe.
