Nested Loop Studios and Pantaloon's room-building simulator Boxroom, which turns a player's Steam library into physical 3D packages for display and game launching, was scheduled for Early Access on May 26, 2026, but the Steam store page still reads "Coming Soon" as of June 4. A 4Gamer.net play report published ahead of the intended launch details the game's library-scanning feature, room customization with 1990s UK-themed furniture, and the privacy settings required to sync a user's account.
Nested Loop Studios and London-based publisher Pantaloon aimed to launch Boxroom into Steam Early Access on May 26, 2026. As of June 4, the store page has not updated from "Coming Soon," indicating a last-minute delay. A 4Gamer.net play report published just before the intended release describes a game that reads a user's Steam library and generates 3D boxed packages with auto-generated cover art and back-cover text. Players can open the boxes to find booklets made from Steam screenshots and even launch games from inside the room. The room-building side uses Minecraft-like controls and furniture styled after 1990s overseas DIY and PC desks. To sync the library, users must temporarily set their Steam profile's basic info and game details to public.
