'Lost Words: Beyond the Page' will be a Stadia exclusive for one year

Modus Games has officially brought Lost Words: Beyond the Page to Google Stadia. And we learn that Google's game streaming service gets exclusive rights to the game for an entire year. It's available for US$14.99 (around CA$21). This game is a "narrative-driven, atmospheric puzzler set inside the pages of a young girl's diary." The story is by renowned games writer Rhianna Pratchett, who has worked on Mirror's Edge and Tomb Raider, among others. 

Lost Words will be available on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PC after the exclusivity period ends. Modus also plans to bring its games Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break and Cris Tales to the platform, but these won't be Stadia exclusives.

OnePlus phones will get always-on displays

OnePlus will be bringing a much-requested feature to its phones. The phone maker announced that the always-on display feature is on its roadmap. This particular feature has been the most popular request on OnePlus' Ideas portal, which is where users can suggest new features and then those that get implemented will get rewards from the company. Expect it to arrive in a future build of OxygenOS. But, of course, OnePlus still has to find a way to optimize this feature to make sure always-on doesn't drain the battery heavily.
