Is there a video-game .ics/calendar that I can subscribe to keep up with recent releases? (slrpnk.net)

I am using Proton Calendar, hoping there is some service that allows me to subscribe to their service/.ics so that it integrates nicely into my calendar. If anyone have any idea of a such service then let me know :)

i'm so on board for a .ics renaissance like we've had for rss. let's put these calendars to use.

Yes! There's https://opencritic.com/calendar which is available in ics format. It usually only covers big releases though, not many indies on the list.

anyone else getting 403 for the feed itself?

[-] simple@lemm.ee 1 points 2 hours ago

I just tried and got it. Might be worth shooting them an email.

Appreciate the find, but doesn't seem to be very up to date. Hasn't included either Stalker 2 or Path of Exile 2, which both launch during November.

Personally I check steam’s popular new releases and upcoming releases lists to stay up to date

Found this, can't vouch for its accuracy but it has an .ics version: https://game-releases.com/calendar/

Appreciate it, though this one to seems to be a little short on upcoming games.

If you don't find one, you might consider looking for RSS (or Atom) feeds that list new game announcements or reviews. Maybe one of these, for example.

Ok......this thread has Sunny, Chris, and Mox.......I cannot be the only person getting pro-wrestling vibes from this post.

I suspect there should be something using the IGDB API, if not it ought to be possible to make one. I found this (I didn't try it) but it's not quite what you want: https://github.com/omoosey/video-game-calendar
