Rock Paper Shotgun has detailed the exclusive content provided to its Premium Supporters during September 2026. The offerings include a variety of articles from RPS writers, covering game previews, unique interviews, and personal reflections on gaming culture.
One highlighted piece is an impression of ShipShaper: Falconeer Chronicles, a game focused on ship construction, described as a therapeutic experience akin to model making. Another article features a whimsical interview between characters from Penguin Colony and The Thing. The urban geography of the sci-fi shooter Sprawl Zero is also explored, examining its level design that blurs the lines between open environments and confined spaces.
The collection also addresses player desires for more control over cutscenes, arguing for the necessity of pausable sequences rather than just skippable ones. An article on the game Vholume suggests that the player's exhaustion from its mechanics indicates the game is functioning as intended. For racing enthusiasts, an article details the allure of the Panoz Esperante GTR-1 in Automobilista 2, drawing comparisons to the Batmobile.
Personal features are also part of the supporter rewards, including a desk tour showcasing a writer's collection of books and 1980s D&D memorabilia. Additionally, an editor's letter reflects on the responsible use of language, particularly in the context of industry layoffs. The month's offerings conclude with a scout report on Rogue Eclipse, which, despite some initial criticisms, is deemed an enjoyable experience.
Rock Paper Shotgun expressed gratitude to its supporters and encouraged those who haven't yet subscribed to consider supporting the site for continued access to exclusive articles, ad-free browsing, and other benefits.
