All The RPS Supporter Rewards For August 2026: Fatty Felines, GTA 6 Pondering, And A Heap Of Barely Washed Radishes

Rock Paper Shotgun has published its monthly roundup of exclusive content for Premium Supporters, highlighting the diverse range of articles released throughout August 2026. Alongside the content list, the publication is actively encouraging both subscribers and non-subscribers to participate in the ongoing RPS Supporters survey. This feedback initiative is designed to help the editorial team refine and improve their subscription rewards program for the future.

The August lineup features a variety of game analyses, starting with Sin Vega's "Scout Report" on the puzzle-platformer Cato: Buttered Cat. The article explores the unique mechanics of the game, which revolves around the hypothetical physics of a piece of toast fastened to a cat. Vega investigates how this quirky concept translates into a functional and engaging puzzle experience, concluding that the premise yields a surprisingly solid challenge.

Personal glimpses into the workspaces of the editorial team also returned this month with two distinct desk tours. Deputy Editor James Archer shared a look at his own setup, noting that his collection of small figures has already grown since the photos were taken. Shortly after, guides guru Callum provided an even more detailed tour of his workspace, which featured a humorous demand for a sacrificial offering to an "Ugly Squidward" figure.

Reflective and personal essays formed a core part of the month's exclusive reading. One piece delves into the personal history of the site's Editorial Director, who shares a heartbreaking explanation of why they never managed to develop a liking for the challenging Soulslike genre, attributing the barrier to the influence of a former boss.

In another "Scout Report," Sin Vega reviews the point-and-click adventure Neofeud 2. The article appreciates the game's unsubtle, satirically charged cyberpunk themes. Vega describes the title's approach to social commentary as being as blunt as a guillotine, finding merit in its unapologetically silly and direct style of storytelling.

The editorial challenges of major industry releases were also a key topic of discussion. In the nineteenth "Letter from the Editor," Julian addresses the looming release of Grand Theft Auto VI. Written just ahead of a Netflix-related announcement for the game, the piece explores the logistical and practical difficulties of covering what is expected to be the biggest game of the decade, particularly given that it is not initially launching as a PC title.

The selection concludes with hands-on experiences both in and out of virtual worlds. Mark writes about his return to Skyrim modding, admitting he may have been too quick to dismiss Bethesda's official addition of fishing to the game after crafting his own virtual angling career. Finally, James Archer offers a culinary review of the various booth snacks available at Gamescom 2026, ranking the finger food which surprisingly included fresh vegetables.
