Title: Star Wars: Galactic Racer Dev Says Racing Genre Is "Crying Out" For Fresh Ideas Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 07:55:00 -0800 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/star-wars-galactic-racer-dev-says-racing-genre-is-crying-out-for-fresh-ideas/1100-6538382/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f Late last year, Fuse Games debuted the first look at its debut title, Star Wars: Galactic Racer. The Fuse team includes veterans who have worked on Need for Speed, Burnout, and Star Wars Battlefront. That experience has taught them that the new Star Wars racer had to be more than just a spiritual successor to Star Wars Episode I: Racer."Every time we've made a game, we've tried to innovate," Fuse Games founder and CEO Matt Webster told The Game Business. "If you sort of zoom out a bit, it's a genre that's crying out for some fresh new ideas, and to steal from some other genres as well."One of the ways that Galactic Racer will differ from the previous Star Wars racing games is that the races are only part of the experience. Galactic Racer will also allow players to spend time outside of their vehicles and find the stories taking place around them.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Title: The ROG Flow Z13-KJP explains Kojima's entire approach to creation Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 16:30:17 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/asus-rog-flow-z13-kjp-interview/ For the past few weeks, I’ve been playing video games on a device that looks like it came out of one. The newly released ROG Flow Z13-KJP is a limited-edition Asus computer created in collaboration with Kojima Productions. Functionally, it’s not so different from the regular Flow Z13, a sort of laptop-tablet hybrid with a detachable keyboard. The most visible difference, though, is its design. It is unmistakably the work of Kojima Productions, a studio that’s invested in making science-fiction feel like reality.

Title: My Dress-Up Darling spinoff announced amid new season speculation Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 16:24:51 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/my-dress-up-darling-xoxo-new-series-season-3/ Fans are starving for new My Dress-Up Darling content following the end of season 2 of the anime. With no confirmation of a third season on its way, fans are left on their toes, but at least the anime's popularity led to a renewed interest in the manga, including a new spinoff title that has just been announced.

Title: Life is Strange Reunion is more of a Double Exposure sequel than I expected Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 16:00:17 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/life-is-strange-reunion-preview/ Life is Strange: Reunion is out to reopen that wound. The series’ latest game, now developed by Deck Nine, is returning to where it all began by bringing Chloe and Max back together — regardless of what ending you got 10 years ago. It’s all in the name of giving the duo the “ending they deserve,” says Deck Nine. That statement has been met with some backlash, sparking a debate about fan service from the very audience that Reunion is hoping to please. Is Deck Nine’s “by and for fans” approach misguided, or do we just need to wait to see the big picture?

Title: Brandon Sanderson might be even better at sci-fi than Cosmere fantasy Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 15:38:24 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/tailored-realities-brandon-sanderson-more-sci-fi/ At the tail end of 2025, Brandon Sanderson left his massive Cosmere fantasy universe behind for his new short story collection Tailored Realities. But more surprisingly, the book largely leaves the fantasy genre behind as well. There’s a single tiny story about dragons, but most of the book focuses on big science fiction concepts like simulation theory, time travel, and humanity’s place in the universe. Remarkably, Sanderson’s science fiction work is less mechanically driven than his fantasy, putting aside the complex world-building he’s famous for in favor of twisty, character-driven mysteries. Sanderson is always writing something, and while I’m excited to see what’s next in the Cosmere, Tailored Realitiesmakes me hope that he’ll keep experimenting with science fiction.

Title: GeForce NOW Turns Screens Into a Gaming Machine Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2026 14:00:58 +0000 Link: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/geforce-now-thursday-amazon-fire-tv-app/ The GeForce NOW sixth-anniversary festivities roll on this February, continuing a monthlong celebration of NVIDIA’s cloud gaming service.

The adventure takes place in the “Ninth World,” a far-future version of Earth built on the ruins of incredibly advanced civilizations. Step into the role of the Last Castoff, a person connected to a powerful, mysterious figure, and get pulled into a mystery that asks one big question: What does a single life truly mean?

Title: GeForce NOW Celebrates Six Years of Streaming With 24 Games in February Date: Thu, 05 Feb 2026 14:00:53 +0000 Link: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/geforce-now-thursday-feb-2026-games-list/ Break out the cake and green sprinkles — GeForce NOW is turning six. Since launch, members have streamed over 1 billion hours, and the party’s just getting started. Throughout February, members can look forward to new games, fresh ways to play across more devices and even more ways to bring RTX power to every screen in the house. There’s plenty to celebrate: the February games list kicks off with 24 new games. Start with the 10 new games in the cloud this week, including the launch of Team Jade’s Delta Force and the newest title launching in the PUBG universe, PUBG: BLINDSPOT. Reporting for Duty The ultimate extraction. Delta Force, now boots on the ground and fully deployed on GeForce NOW, brings the tactical first‑person shooter from Team Jade (TiMi Studio Group) to the cloud. The game features high-stakes extraction with an all-out warfare mode, giving players a playground of open environments, vehicles and gadgets to pull off coordinated assaults. Players join elite units tasked with tackling high‑risk missions across sprawling maps, from tight urban incursions to rugged open‑terrain operations. Expect strategic objectives, combined‑arms combat with land, air and sea vehicles, and tense firefights where teamwork and planning are just as important as quick reflexes. On GeForce NOW, Delta Force leans into its high‑octane personality: fast drops, big maps and cinematic engagements that look sharp and feel responsive across devices. Members can squad up from almost anywhere, enjoy high‑resolution streaming and smooth performance, and stay ready for every op without waiting on downloads or big updates before jumping into the next mission. New Mission Squad up. PUBG: BLINDSPOT, a new spin-off set in the PUBG universe from Krafton, expands the franchise with a standalone 5v5 top-down tactical shooter. Set across tightly designed maps, matches focus on information, positioning and coordinated team play, with squads clearing angles, locking down objectives and outmaneuvering opponents in fast, round-based firefights. Every callout and ability use matters, turning each round into a layered tactical puzzle rather than a simple test of reflexes. On GeForce NOW, responsive streaming and sharp RTX-powered visuals keep every angle, rotation and clutch play feeling precise, even on lower-powered devices. With support across a wide range of screens, the cloud makes it easy for the gaming squad to jump right into the action, without lengthy downloads or updates getting in the way.

Title: Life is Strange: Reunion hands-on report highlights six reasons to get excited for March 26 Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 16:30:08 +0000 Link: https://blog.playstation.com/2026/02/24/life-is-strange-reunion-hands-on-report-highlights-six-reasons-to-get-excited-for-march-26/ It always comes back to Chloe Price and Max Caulfield. Through several games, branching narrative series Life is Strange has explored the consequences of love, friendship, and community, but the duo’s bond remains the beating heart of the overarching tale. As Life is Strange: Reunion is said to be the final chapter in Max and Chloe’s story, it’s no surprise that both characters have returned, thanks to the cumulative events of Life is Strange: Double Exposure. Although some of the more significant decisions you’ve made from the first game, such as Max and Chloe’s relationship and the fate of Arcadia Bay, have carried over as well. I spent some time with the game to dive into why fans should be excited about the partners-in-crime getting one last chance. Some more familiar faces return It’s not just about Max and Chloe making their comeback. Many characters from Life is Strange: Double Exposure appear, with Moses, a graduate, as a focal point because he is one of the victims of a fire that Max is trying to prevent. Dr. Yasmin Fayyad and her shapeshifting daughter Safi are present too, but Max’s friend Amanda was very much the focal point of the demo’s opening minutes. Which led to… Ready to Rewind again? My first task in the demo was to save Amanda from a demoralising heckler during her stand-up routine at the Snapping Turtle campus bar. It was a gentle reintroduction to Max’s Rewind ability, as once I failed my first attempt to stop the jeering troublemaker, I rewound our encounter with L1. Using the information I learned in our previous conversations, Max was able to talk to him again and make up a story that forced him to leave. Max’s ability can be accessed at any time, but fundamentally, its use in the demo was to get around tight-lipped people, such as realizing that spilling beer over Double Exposure’s disgraced university professor, Lucas, is the only way to get a sneaky peek at his hidden documents. The revelations from that action led Max to investigate the unsettling Abraxus House, triggering a more action driven use of Rewind. After bumping into another familiar character, journalism student Loretta, the two women were trapped in a creepy basement, under threat of discovery. Using a broom to barricade the door proved useless, but Rewind allowed me to find a far sturdier metal crowbar. But the danger wasn’t over yet. With the house due for early demolition, I then had to use Rewind to find and disarm all the detonators in the right order under a strict time limit, a fun sequence that showed off the potential for where the game might go later on. Chloe’s Backtalk returns Given that Chloe is playable, it’s only fair that her dialogue-puzzle-based Backtalk ability from Life is Strange: Before the Storm is here, too. Although its introduction in the demo focused less on withering sarcasm to get her way, and more on charismatic persuasion by bending the truth. After sneaking into the Snapping Turtle and then later being caught by security, I was asked to prove Chloe’s university credentials or risk her getting banned from campus. The Backtalk overlay popped up, offering a selection of replies under a time limit, with some responses carrying future consequences. The key to successfully answering lay in the scene’s prior setup, with the game giving me a chance to observe items around the bar and interact with others for information, I had to remember to make my lie sound convincing. So don’t worry if you’re put on the spot – as long as you’re paying attention and quick on your fingers, Backtalk is a blast. Both Max and Chloe are playable Becoming both characters in the demo created an interesting situation when they were reunited at a climactic point of my game time. Rather than forcing me to choose who to control or keep them entirely separate, Reunion allowed me to decide what each character said to the other, shaping the ebb and flow of their conversation and creating immediate cause and effect in their dialogue. Their journals are the perfect catch-up tool We also have access to both Max’s and Chloe’s journals, which provide backstory and world-building through their scribbled thoughts, stickers, and other ephemera. The same menu allowed me to read incoming text messages between characters, along with their previous texts, providing a rich insight into their prior relationships. You can take photos at any time Similar to previous games in the series, there are photo hotspots to uncover in Max’s scenes, for collectible compositions that save in her journal. But pressing up on the D-pad at any time while you’re controlling Max reveals a much-requested addition to the series – the ability to take an in-game photo whenever something catches your eye. Your personal snaps won’t be saved to Max’s journal, but are shareable with friends and via social media with a long press of the Create button. My short time with the game left me eager for more as Max and Chloe’s adventure together was just starting to heat up. March 26 is when we’ll all be able to experience the likely heart-wrenching decisions of what comes next when Life is Strange: Reunion launches on PS5.

Title: Scott Pilgrim EX: Enter Casa Vania, meet Goth Neil and Lady Envy Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 16:00:05 +0000 Link: https://blog.playstation.com/2026/02/24/scott-pilgrim-ex-enter-casa-vania-meet-goth-neil-and-lady-envy/ Toronto is in turmoil! As the mysterious GCorp takes over the Queen City, the members of Sex Bob-Omb have been kidnapped by Metal Scott. Ramona, Scott and a couple of her evil Exes band together to venture across the City to save it from these ominous forces.One of the many places the gang will have to explore will be the shadowy halls of…Casa Vania. Scott Pilgrim EX is different from our previous two beat’em up titles: while it still has a lot of fighting, we wanted to add much bigger exploration and character interaction elements. The resulting game is a sort of “brawling adventure” hybrid. Players will be free to trek all over Toronto, visit shops, equip items and encounter their favorite characters from the Scott Pilgrim world.But of course, adventures require zones and a variety of environments. This led our team to create a warped version of Toronto for players to discover along with the game’s numerous quests. In The Hidden Castle, the third quest of Scott Pilgrim EX, the players must jump, punch and flip kick their way through demonic gangs in order to gain access to the somber staircases of Casa Vania. Credit: Scott Pilgrim moveset frames illustrated by Jonathan Kim Once they’ve entered the castle’s gloomy corridors, they find none other than…Goth Neil?Seemingly transformed, Sex Bob-Omb’s biggest fan has fallen under the thrall of a dark figure! While he seems like an invention for SP:EX, Goth Neil’s hails from the pages of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s own sketchbook: “In the original Scott Pilgrim books, there’s a big “Day of the Dead” party. I did some early sketches of Young Neil in a goth outfit, but he didn’t make the final cut.  Those sketches were published in later editions of the books, and some fans loved them. That’s part of the genesis of Goth Neil. Young Neil is a character who is always a bit child-like and naïve.” I initially sketched him holding an “egg-like rock”, but we later flipped the concept so that he’s holding a regular rock, which he thinks is a dinosaur egg.  The animators gave him so much quirky personality. I don’t remember who suggested he transform into a bat, but we thought it was so funny.” – Bryan Lee O’Malley, creator of Scott Pilgrim Goth Neil leaves the scene in his own inimitable style. But who rules over Casa Vania? Who has bewitched Young Neil so? None other than Lady Envy! In Scott Pilgrim EX, we wanted players to face colorful bosses while keeping in mind that fans of the Pilgrim world, whether they’re books, movies or animation, still wanted to see their favorite characters. We arrived at the idea that every “warped” environment would be headed by themed versions of recognizable faces from the Pilgrim canon. O’Malley tells us more about Lady Envy’s origins: “A project like this is a big collaboration between so many artists and storytellers. Lady Envy was one of the first bosses we discussed. She’s a mashup of so many fun references and homages to classic games we loved from the 80s-90s (“Casa Vania”). She might bring to mind a few more modern references, too.  She’s a cool horror-vampire-pirate pastiche, plus some pop-star flair to make her feel like the Envy Adams we know and love.” – Bryan Lee O’Malley, creator of Scott Pilgrim Credit: Lady Envy & Goth Neil design sketches by Bryan Lee O’Malley As Quest 3’s boss, Lady Envy will challenge the players with her dual blades and magical attacks. Will you be up to the challenge? Save Neil, the rest of the band, Toronto and more in Scott Pilgrim: EX, available March 3rd on PS4 and PS5.

On behalf of the teams at Nixxes and Kojima Productions, I’d like to share the details on PC system requirements with all Porters that will start their journey on March 19.

Title: Revival: Recolonization hits PS4 & PS5 on February 26 Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2026 18:00:58 +0000 Link: https://blog.playstation.com/2026/02/23/revival-recolonization-hits-ps4-ps5-on-february-26/ Today is a huge deal for our tiny team. We’re over the moon to announce that Revival is launching on PS4 and PS5 on February 26! Play Video The story of Revival began over 20 years ago, way back in 2003. Inspired by the Civilization series and the sci-fi novels of the Strugatsky brothers, especially Roadside Picnic and Noon World,  we released our very first game on the Symbian platform. It was basically a tiny Civilization, just 100 KB in size, yet it delivered a full 4X experience: eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. Revival: Recolonization takes place on Earth after an apocalypse caused by an superpower AI uprising. The forward-thinking remnants of humanity, the Emissaries, escaped into cryopods hidden deep underground. Your mission? Rebuild cities, research tech, explore dangerous lands for rare resources and mysterious anomalies, battle aggressive neighbors, and strike trade deals with friendlier ones. All in the name of restoring human civilization. On the map, you’ll meet diverse Peoples, survivors of the catastrophe who’ve regressed to a primitive state. Which clan you lead shapes your entire playstyle. It determines your faction’s culture, politics, special weapons, unique buildings, and even exclusive sciences to research. Each clan in the game belongs to one of five Peoples, each adapted to one of five climate types: Cold, Cool, Temperate, Hot, and Desert. Units that enter climates they’re not used to can lose health points, block building options, or not yield any resources at all. But hey, you can change the climate with edicts, an advanced technology from the past. It’s even possible to turn the climate into a weapon by altering the temperature in the enemy’s region.  Oh, and that’s just the start. Edicts let you do all sorts of awesome stuff: raise or destroy mountains, grow forests, drench the land in acid, mind-control your foes, or even starting a zombie apocalypse. Every battle in Revival plays out on its own map, which reflects the climate and terrain of the global map. Before the fight, you get to scout the battlefield and place your units on the most favorable hexes. Plus, the Unit Editor lets you mix and match a ton of combinations, creating truly unique units with wildly different traits. As your empire grows, you unlock new sciences and resources, and even more ways to evolve your squads. Diplomacy evolves too, based on your relationship with other factions. Want to land a sweet deal? You’ll need to raise your standing with them first. And in Revival, you can trade more than just resources — swap techs and edicts too. You start the game with one clan and one region. The lands next to yours might belong to another faction… or be totally unclaimed. If a neighboring clan is independent, you can make them your vassal — and eventually assimilate them. How friendly a clan is toward you? That’s Loyalty. It shifts gradually, and you can influence it through your actions.  A massive thank you to every player and fan of the Revival universe. Because of you, our little team made it this far, and brought our wildest dreams to life. Jump into Revival: Recolonization on PlayStation now! Take on the all-powerful All-Mind. Are you ready?

Title: Seven towns that will never turn out to be Silent Hill all along Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 15:53:45 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/seven-towns-that-will-never-turn-out-to-be-silent-hill-all-along As if we didn’t have enough to deal with between despotic regimes, habitat collapse, and dodgy new technologies, Konami are on a mission to turn everywhere into Silent Hill. The recent Silent Hill f took place in a fictional Japanese town from the 1960s. The forthcoming Silent Hill: Townfall unfolds in Scotland. Konami have recently made ominous noises about taking the series to Central or South America. The implication is that Silent Hill is a transferable metaphor, glomming onto unsuspecting nowherevilles worldwide. Well you can keep your filthy free association, Konami. A line has to be drawn. A line will be drawn here. Please find below a list of places that would never, ever turn out to be Silent Hill. Read more

Title: Death Stranding 2's system requirements have washed ashore, and they're pretty reasonable Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 15:31:34 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/death-stranding-2s-system-requirements-have-washed-ashore-and-theyre-pretty-reasonable Death Stranding 2: On The Beach now has a big table detailing its System Requirements: On The PC.

Title: Cicadamata" is the most exciting FPS I've played in years - come try the demo Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 11:42:25 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/cicadamata-is-the-most-exciting-fps-ive-played-in-years-come-try-the-demo Let me slash the tendons of that strutting headline with some immediate caveats. Most obviously, you will not like Cicamadata” if you have an overpowering hatred of feisty punctuation in game titles. You will not like it if you're averse to abstract and ostentatiously computerised, 'product design' art direction that is somehow both bright and foggy, crisp and distorted. You won’t like it if you really dislike artisanal glitches and general HUD palaver – cockroach text scuttling across the view; boxy white velocity lines; an oversized Doomguy-style character model to indicate health; damage and state changes that cause the screen to blink and reset, as though you’d jolted a cable.

Title: Ambitious Fallout: New Vegas Van Buren remake mod locks in an early March release date for its second demo Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 10:31:30 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/ambitious-fallout-new-vegas-van-buren-remake-mod-locks-in-an-early-march-release-date-for-its-second-demo Not long after changing their project's name from Fallout: Revelation Blues to Fallout: The New West, the developers behind a New Vegas mod remaking a cancelled Fallout game have settled on a release date for their second demo. The second publicly playable taste of this attempt to resurrect Van Buren - the version of Fallout 3 which was in development at Black Isle Studios before being cancelled in 2003 - is slated to arrive late next week.
