- Ausstar Heatwave lets you explore a humorous open world featuring treasure hunting, party battles, farming, and home-building.
- Sign up now for the Shareholder Test running from August 14 to August 23, 2026, on Android and iOS.
Tencent Games has opened pre-orders for its latest anime-style humorous action party game, Ausstar Heatwave, on iOS in China. Moreover, the game’s Shareholder Test will begin on August 14, 2026 across Android and iOS, with recruitment already underway.
While TapTap CN states the title is targeting a Summer 2026 launch window, the App Store listing suggests a January 2027 release.
Explore a hilarious open-world packed with party battles, treasure hunting, and home building
Ausstar Heatwave is a 2D open-world game that revolves around a magical party experience, combining exploration, combat, extraction-style gameplay, competitive party modes, and home management. Set in the bizarre Haji Town, the game embraces absurd humor with various internet meme references, while its custom physics make every moment unpredictable.
You can try the extraction-inspired Treasure Hunt mode, searching Haji Town for strange items such as canned yellow peaches, pigeon overalls, golden hamsters, and more, before making a safe escape. You can even transform into the fluffy Guangzai to explore various maps, uncover hidden treasures, and use weird weapons like baguettes and hair dryers to finish enemies.
I like how we can scare certain monsters away with a mic, though others relentlessly chase. Beyond the action, the game lets you unwind by returning to your hometown as a human, where you can farm, cook, build and decorate your own home, collect cool outfits, and even invite friends over. The fun continues with party modes like King of Hot Pot, Two Person Ride, and more.

PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
