- Double Fine Productions has launched Kiln, a unique multiplayer brawler centred on pottery creation and combat.
- Players sculpt custom ceramic characters and battle in teams to extinguish rivals' kilns, with gameplay shaped by each pot's design.
- Developed over nine years, Kiln blends creativity and destruction, with ongoing updates and community engagement planned post-launch.

How does the game balance the quiet art of pottery with chaotic brawler combat? Can Kiln's no-microtransaction model build a more loyal community than its rivals? Is launching on Game Pass a lifeline for creative multiplayer games, or a gilded cage? Will players on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC be able to battle together with cross-play?
