Title: Forza Horizon 6 explodes on Steam even before it's officially out Date: Fri, 15 May 2026 11:00:02 +0000 Link: https://www.vg247.com/forza-horizon-6-steam-numbers-big-launch Steam is abuzz this week with a couple of long-anticipated launches, but in Forza Horizon 6’s case, at least, the game isn’t even out for what will be most of its players. The anticipated sequel in the open-world driving game series doesn’t officially launch until May 19, but owners of its most expensive version - the Premium Edition - can play it right now. Read more

Title: Mystic Messenger's most loyal players are getting banned in droves for seemingly playing the game too much Date: Fri, 15 May 2026 10:02:10 +0000 Link: https://www.vg247.com/mystic-messenger-ban-wave-thousands-of-hourglasses-anniversary Mystic Messenger, arguably one of the best dating sims around, has been dormant for about seven years.

Title: Forza Horizon 6 review - The driving game for everyone still can’t seem to escape its car-collecting legacy Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 12:00:03 +0000 Link: https://www.vg247.com/forza-horizon-6-review There is this idea that, for a long-running series to remain as consistently popular as Forza Horizon has been, it needs to diminish itself somewhat with each new entry, gradually losing more and more of its edge in a bid to appeal to the widest possible audience.

Title: You Can Play WoW: Forever For Free Next Week (But There’s A Catch) Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 18:45:44 +0000 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/you-can-play-wow-forever-for-free-next-week-but-theres-a-catch/ World of Warcraft: Forever's beta will be free for a limited time next week, giving players who want to check out the new version of Blizzard's old-school MMORPG but don't want to pay $60 for beta access a chance to see what all the hype is about.  Blizzard announced a WoW: Forever stress test will begin October 19 at 2 PM PT/ 5 PM ET, with no WoW subscription or beta access needed to play. The goal is to put the game's servers through their paces ahead of launch. "This is a highly valuable event, since you'll participate in our discovering of issues that would have otherwise happened on launch day," Blizzard said in a post announcing the stress test. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvueCoFTkCk&t To install the test, players will need the Battle.net launcher installed and an account. After selecting WoW: Forever from the list of games, players can select to install the stress test under the "Game Version" drop-down menu. There is, however, a catch. The stress test will only run for a "few hours," according to Blizzard. Exactly how long the test will last is still unclear. Blizzard said the test window "may end earlier or run later as needed." During the time that the stress test is live, the game's closed beta will be offline, but will return following the conclusion of the test. All characters made during the stress test will be deleted once the test is over. It's not much, but for those who wanted to at least dabble in WoW: Forever without having to buy the $60 Skyborne Epic Pack for a beta code, the stress test will at least let curious players dip their toes in. Even the beta itself won't be around for much longer. It will run until October 21, after which it will shut down and characters will be deleted to make way for early name reservations for the full game on October 27. WoW: Forever launches the following week on November 4.  All indicators so far point towards WoW: Forever's beta being a massive success. Multiple Blizzard developers have commented on how the game's popularity has already broken records, signaling launch could be huge. The beta hasn't been all sunshine and rainbows, however. Multiple controversies have riled up the WoW community over the course of the beta, revealing WoW: Forever has a streamer problem. Illicit gold-buying scandals in the beta have pushed Blizzard to crack down on the practice harder than ever before (going so far as to add new in-game restrictions and warnings). Meanwhile, one controversial streamer is looking to create the biggest WoW guild ever seen and dominate the game's sole PvP server, much to the annoyance of regular players. In a recent interview with GameSpot, Blizzard shared more details about WoW: Forever's future, and how it's trying to "push the envelope" on what players expect.

In addition to being the first full year for the Switch 2--we'll surely hear about even more games for the system as we move further into the year--2026 will also see the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, which is widely anticipated as one of the biggest entertainment launches of all time, if it doesn't get yet another delay. We'll see plenty of other sequels to popular franchises, as well as a number of brand-new games across everything from console to mobile.

Title: This Espresso Machine Can Run Doom Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 18:28:36 +0000 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/this-espresso-machine-can-run-doom/ Before caffeinating yourself in the morning, the Fellow Espresso Series 1 machine can actually run 1993's Doom on its small, circular screen. Reddit user FullExtraction showed off the classic FPS, utilizing the brew button to run and steam button to shoot. The scroll wheel on the device turns Doomguy either left or right.  There's also a wider-angle video of Doom working on the espresso machine, via custom firmware. The game looks pretty smooth in the snippet, showcasing a solid frame rate. Out of the box, that circular screen provides a user interface to choose what drink you're making--such as an americano, cappuccino, or even a straight shot of espresso. It will provide text directions as well as a timer for extraction, too. Or, apparently, you can blast some demons.  https://www.reddit.com/r/espresso/comments/1x79c1q/yes_itrunsdoom_fellowes1/?solution=8902c77b28c56b408902c77b28c56b40&js_challenge=1&jsc_token=2824be10929bdc604753c70a67a1c33158037e61e2abdf23ade535fe55d21d18&jsc_orig_r=&share_id=ui9ELfiTwjxjO8TqG2sE1&utm_content=1&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1 This espresso machine joins a long, long list of devices, games, and even potatoes that can run Doom. For instance, we saw how an Anker smart-charging station could play the game without any hardware modifications last year.  Then, there's someone that modified a freakin' pregnancy test and got the FPS working on it. Last but not least, one of the biggest video games in Fortnite can run Doom, too.  Doom: The Dark Ages is the latest entry in the storied shooter series, arriving in May 2025. Earlier this year, the game got an expansion called Revelations. However, shortly afterward, developer id Software was hit with mass layoffs. That obviously could affect future plans for the studio, which reportedly was working on a co-op Doom experience as well as a Perfect Dark project.

Title: Shrek 2 Remaster Leaks, Looks Amazing And I Need It Now Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 18:21:13 +0000 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/shrek-2-remaster-leaks-looks-amazing-and-i-need-it-now/ A remaster of 2004's Shrek 2: The Game is on the way, according to an Xbox.com listing that seems to have been published too soon. The page for the unannounced game--which has since been removed--says the remaster will feature better textures, enhanced UI, and 4K resolution. Like the original PS2, Xbox, and GameCube game, the remaster lets you play solo or in co-op with up to three friends, locally or online. The playable characters include Shrek, Fiona, and Donkey, among others. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hICuo4Yfp5E In addition to the updated graphics, the Shrek 2 remaster includes a new Photo Mode and Cheat Mode. The original was published by Activision, but Aspyr Media is bringing this game to market. That company was also behind the recent The Lord of the Rings re-releases. A glorious scene from the Shrek 2 remaster. The Xbox page for the Shrek 2 remaster does not list a release date or a price. The game is expected to come to PlayStation as well, and Switch wouldn't be a surprise either. Aspyr should release it on November 19 to go up against GTA 6 in a heavyweight battle for the ages. This game may have leaked through Xbox, but the official Shrek account posted a compilation of Shrek video game footage with the caption, "Only real gamers played Shrek," and many think it's connected to the Shrek 2 remaster. The compilation includes the OG Shrek 2 game, along with numerous others, including Shrek Smash N' Crash Racing and Shrek Super Party, the latter of which is one of Obsession star Inde Navarrette's favorite games. https://twitter.com/Shrek/status/2111140541396369879 It's already been a big year for Shrek in gaming, as Shrek recently came to Ubisoft's fighting game Brawlhalla and FIFA Heroes. The original Shrek movie returned to theaters earlier this year to mark the franchise’s 25th anniversary. The long-awaited fifth movie, Shrek 5, is set for release in Summer 2027. The Shrek movie franchise is a juggernaut, with its four main installments collectively grossing $3 billion, and that does not even count the Puss in the Boots spin-offs. In addition to Shrek 5, DreamWorks is producing a Donkey movie for 2028, with Eddie Murphy coming back to voice Donkey once again. Beyond the movies, there are Shrek-themed attractions at Universal Studios theme parks, including the new kids-themed resort in Texas, while many fantastic Shrek memes have helped to keep Shrek popular and relevant for the past 25 years.

Title: Every DC Studios Movie and TV Show in Coming Through 2028 (and Beyond) Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 18:52:16 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/dc-movies-tv-shows-dcu-release-calendar-james-gunn/ There are still some lingering projects left over from the pre-Gunn era of the DCU, including a new Matt Reeves-led Batman movie and the fate of Peacemaker, the series starring John Cena that spanned two eras of DC film and television — and left fans contending with a major cliffhanger.

Title: How to get the DLC weapons in Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 18:47:07 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/fire-emblem-fortunes-weave-dlc-weapons-how-to-get/ Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave's DLC weapons give your army a sizeable advantage, though they do come with a few drawbacks. Obtaining the weapons involves completing a new subquest, and each of the four playable Flame Lords gets a special weapon. There's a bit of timeline funkiness involved in getting those weapons to Part 2 or beyond if you've already completed someone's Part 1. It's worth the hassle, though.

Title: GTA 6 Recaptures What Made GTA’s Best DLC So Great Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 18:00:18 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/gta-6-ballad-of-gay-tony/ If there’s one word that describes GTA 6, it’s sexy. Since its debut trailer, the new open-world game appears to be a drastic detour from Rockstar’s previous entries, in its enhanced version of Vice City, and in the dynamic between its dual protagonists and how their steamy relationship informs the narrative. Based on roughly 30 minutes of official footage across its four main trailers, club life, excessive robberies, pastel pinks, roaring high-end sports cars, and even more explosive action set pieces than GTA 5 seem to be the hallmarks of this new experience. It’s shaping up to be Rockstar's magnum opus.

Title: Street Fighter’s Best Live-Action Movie Yet Is Free on Streaming Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 17:35:53 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/street-fighter-1994-streaming-free-tubi-pluto-tv/ The latest Street Fighter movie is out, and early reactions are not pretty. The film is currently sitting at 45% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 44 score on Metacritic. Polygon described it as an “incoherent, irredeemable mess” that flounders for an overlong two-hour runtime before ending in an anticlimax. While the action scenes are apparently solid, even they aren’t quite right, as these sequences underutilize the characters’ superhuman abilities. The main subject of praise has been David Dastmalchian’s deliciously campy performance as M. Bison.

Title: Laura Bailey's Favorite Critical Role Romance Changed Campaign 3 Forever Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 17:00:18 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/critical-role-best-romance-laura-bailey-imodna/ Over the years, Critical Role has featured plenty of romances across its Dungeons & Dragons campaigns and one-shots. These include the angst-ridden yet sweet love between haughty noble Percival Del Rolo and strong-willed ranger Vex’ahlia in Campaign 1, and the intriguing will-they-won’t-they dynamic between warlock Fjord Stone and the bubbly tiefling cleric Jester in Campaign 2.

Title: Rally Up: ‘Gears of War: E-Day’ Launches on GeForce NOW Date: Thu, 08 Oct 2026 13:00:46 +0000 Link: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/geforce-now-thursday-gears-of-war-e-day/ Gears of War: E-Day leads the charge on GeForce NOW this week, bringing Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago’s first fight against the Locust Horde to the cloud with GeForce RTX-powered performance.

Title: Boots on the Ground: ‘WARDOGS’ Goes All Out on GeForce NOW at Early-Access Launch Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 13:00:18 +0000 Link: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/geforce-now-thursday-wardogs/ Gear up: The latest PC games and major updates are ready to play on GeForce NOW this week. WARDOGS drops onto the cloud at early-access launch, alongside the Valheim 1.0 Deep North update and Bus Simulator 27 — part of nine new titles joining the cloud. The newest PC releases can demand serious hardware, storage space and upgrade budgets. GeForce NOW puts GeForce RTX-powered performance in the cloud, so members can jump into the newest titles across supported devices without needing expensive PC upgrades to keep up. From a 100-player tactical firefight to a frozen Viking frontier and a growing bus empire, every adventure is ready when members are — no downloads or storage management required. Who Let the ‘WARDOGS’ Out?   Take on the Control Zone: WARDOGS launches on GeForce NOW today, bringing BULKHEAD’s large-scale tactical first-person shooter to the cloud at early-access launch. Up to 100 players across three teams battle to control randomized zones in a large-scale military sandbox, where tactical gunplay, combined-arms combat, building and destruction can change the course of a match. There’s no single route to victory. Outfit a loadout, coordinate a squad, fortify a strategic position or take the fight to the enemy in vehicles. Every team play action earns cash, giving players more ways to invest in gear and vehicles that can turn the tide. Ultimate members can stream the fight with GeForce RTX 5080-class performance in the cloud for a tactical advantage. Pick up the battle across supported devices without waiting on a huge game install or clearing local storage first. Ice, Ice in the Deep North, Baby Sharpen the axes and raise the shields – Valheim has left early access with its 1.0 update, letting members stream the final biome in Iron Gate’s Viking survival saga through Steam and Xbox Store.  Set sail for the Deep North, a frozen frontier filled with new enemies to face, weapons to craft and strongholds to build before the cold closes in. The 1.0 launch also arrives alongside new platform versions with full crossplay support, making it easier to rally the clan. Whether returning to a long-running world on a PC or Mac or beginning a fresh voyage on a Steam Deck or Amazon Fire TV Stick, members can head to the Deep North across supported devices without waiting for downloads. The Wheels on the Bus Go ‘Round in the Cloud The route to the top starts here. Hop into the driver’s seat. Bus Simulator 27 is now streaming from GeForce NOW.  Drive a fleet of more than 45 officially licensed buses from 13 manufacturers through Felicia Bay, a sunny region with two cities, 20 districts and a full day-and-night cycle. Build routes, manage timetables and grow a successful bus company in Story, Career or Sandbox mode. And there’s even more to stream from the GeForce NOW library this week: Bus Simulator 27 (New release on Steam, Sept. 8) Halloween: The Game (New release on Steam, Sept. 8) Honeycomb: The World Beyond (New release on Steam, Sept. 8) Wanderburg (New release on Steam, Sept. 8) Shroom and Gloom (New release on Steam, Sept. 10) Train Sim World 7 – Advanced Access (New release on Steam, Sept. 10) WARDOGS (New release on Steam, Sept. 10) Welcome to Elderfield (New release on Steam, Sept. 10) Death Stranding Director’s Cut (Epic Games Store) Dates listed above reflect when games are released on their respective stores. GeForce NOW availability may vary, as games are onboarded after release and added throughout the week. Keep an eye on GeForce NOW channels and GFN Thursdays for availability updates on announced titles.

Title: Peak climbs its way onto PS5 October 22 Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2026 17:00:08 +0000 Link: https://blog.playstation.com/2026/10/15/peak-climbs-its-way-onto-ps5-october-22/ Hello Scouts! Team Peak is happy to announce that our climbing game Peak is launching on PlayStation 5 October 22. Peak is a collaboration between two studios, Aggro Crab and Landfall, together, we make Team Peak. Aggro Crab is an American studio based in Seattle, Washington, known for their games Another Crab’s Treasure and Going Under. Landfall is a Swedish studio based in Stockholm, known for games like Content Warning, Haste, Totally Accurate Battle Simulator, Stick Fight: The Game, and many more. Both studios became friends after meeting at a game developer conference in 2022, instantly kicking it off. After the success of Another Crab’s Treasure and Content Warning, the teams thought that it could be cool to collaborate on a small project together. Game jam in South Korea To celebrate our friendship, we initially made the game as a one-month game jam in Seoul, South Korea in February of 2025. Three Aggro Crab devs and four Landfall devs locked themselves in a rented apartment, fueled by Korean BBQ and coffee to make something fun together. A game jam is a timed event where individuals or teams create a game from scratch within a strict deadline, often following a secret or shared theme. Initially, the theme for the game had been discussed by the devs while sitting in a hot tub in Sweden, a couple of months before heading to South Korea for the jam. The result was Peak, a co-op climbing game where the slightest mistake can spell your doom. You play solo or as a group of lost nature scouts, with your only hope of rescue from a mysterious island being to scale the mountain at its centre. The key is to stick together, help each other out, and to find the best way to the top before hunger, hazards, or the fog gets you. After the game jam the team went home to their respective countries, with Landfall finishing up our game Haste, and Aggro Crab working on Peak and some other projects. We then all met back up in Sweden in June to finish the game together – and to celebrate the Swedish tradition of Midsummer. Friendship & crossplay Peak is a game based on friendship, both in its development and gameplay. In the game, there’s an important rule: Never abandon a friend in need. Therefore, we’re excited that with the launch on PS5 we’ve also made it possible for crossplay so that you can climb with up to three friends no matter what platform they use. Climb to the Peak The Mountain Takes no Prisoners! Climb through 4 biomes on your way to the Peak, each with its own life-threatening obstacles. You’ll need to scavenge for questionable food to survive and manage your injuries carefully – every setback limits your stamina, making it harder to climb. Survive together We have a bunch of different hazards that you will encounter in the different biomes, everything from tornadoes to poison clouds, birds, and zombies. If any of those things scare you, you can also customise your run, making it easier or harder depending on what your scout troop feels like. Play Peak on PlayStation 5 We’re really excited for PlayStation players to join the climb. The PlayStation 5 version includes all content updates, biomes, and new items the game has received since initial launch – and yes, that includes being able to physically kick your friends using custom runs if you want to be evil. So get your troop together for Peak on PlayStation 5 October 22. View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image

Its teardrop-shaped cockpit is embedded within a body sculpted with cutouts and air ducts, forming aerodynamic channels throughout the vehicle. The signature halo-shaped taillight serves as both a visual icon and a massive air outlet.  Together with innovations like the Active Wake Control System and Accretion Rims, the car achieves a drag coefficient of 0.29, downforce of -1.2, and an aerodynamic efficiency rating of 4.1 through iterative simulated testing, reaching new heights in balancing low drag and high downforce for electric hypercars.  “Electric hypercars must answer a fundamental question,” said Tianyuan Li, Design Head of Xiaomi Auto. “Do we pursue extreme low drag for straight-line speed, or maximum downforce to conquer corners? The optimal solution lies in finding the perfect balance between the two.” This approach impressed Gran Turismo Series Producer Kazunori Yamauchi. “When I saw that Xiaomi had resolved the contradiction between low drag and high downforce, I was truly amazed.”   Try this in GT7: Take it to the Spa-Francorchamps circuit in the Vision Gran Turismo Trophy event and see how its futuristic design translates to one of racing’s most historic circuits.    Ferrari F355 Berlinetta ’94  Can be purchased from Used Cars   View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image Ferrari, the brand of the Prancing Horse, based in Maranello, Italy, has raised cars to the realm of art, pouring technology and passion built in racing into its production cars.

The Civic Si Group A version featured in Gran Turismo is based on this Mugen Motul Civic.   The Si, the first Honda production car in 20 years to be equipped with a DOHC engine, proved its high performance even as a production car, and was perfectly suited for Group A. Mugen developed the machine further and matured the platform through races before supplying private teams with parts.  Try this in GT7: Enter one of the new Sunday Cup events and see if you can carry momentum through every corner like the original race car did.   Mazda RX-Vision GT3 Evo ’26 Can be purchased from Brand Central   View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image View and download image Download the image close Close Download this image Mazda has continued to hone the lineage of rotary engines to perfection ever since their ‘Cosmo Sport’ was released in 1967.

Title: Nonolith traps you in a living maze and challenges you to find hidden terrain magic using good old copy-paste Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 17:44:15 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/nonolith-traps-you-in-a-living-maze-and-challenges-you-to-find-hidden-terrain-magic-using-good-old-copy-paste After enjoying Echo Weaver last week, I'm in the market for games that gaze with utmost scorn upon the concept of unlockable abilities, smugly declaring that everything you need to complete them is available to you from the word go.

Title: We have reached a new threshold in genAI gloom, with a game dev cancelling a demo for fear of copycats ripping them off before release Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 16:50:00 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/we-have-reached-a-new-threshold-in-genai-gloom-with-a-game-dev-cancelling-a-demo-for-fear-of-copycats-ripping-them-off-before-release In what I suspect is the start of a trend, assuming it isn't one already, the creators of Drunken Goddess Reflux have yanked a planned public demo partly because they're concerned about people using generative AI to clone their game and release a copy before they even launch.

Title: "We were wrong": Wardogs devs end Season 2's team-specific cash and XP bonus experiment after a single, tumultuous day Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 16:30:00 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/we-were-wrong-wardogs-devs-end-season-2s-team-specific-cash-and-xp-bonus-experiment-after-a-single-tumultuous-day Season 2 of Wardogs, the multiplayer sandbox FPS currently blasting and/or politely driving its way through early access, introduced an un usual "social experiment" when it launched yesterday. In an attempt to rehabilitate the reputation of its Lonestar faction, a.k.a the infamous Blue Team, developers Bulkhead began granting bonus XP and cash – the latter being the upgrade-focused game’s lifeblood – to Blue players alone. The hypothesis, apparently, was that more skilled players would give Lonestar a chance, helping boost its dismal winrates and perhaps improve its tarnished image. One day in, then, how’s it going? “We were wrong. We fucked up,” says Bulkhead CEO Joe Brammer in a video announcing the bonus scheme’s immediate cancellation. Ah! Read more

Title: The Blood of Dawnwalker's update 1.1 adds a "forgiving" difficulty setting, but I think I'll find it hard to forgive its introduction of "directional animal petting" Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 16:21:53 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/the-blood-of-dawnwalkers-update-11-adds-a-forgiving-difficulty-setting-but-i-think-ill-find-it-hard-to-forgive-its-introduction-of-directional-animal-petting Quick! Hit left scratch ear! Hit down rub belly! Slap right bum pats! Annnnd you've died because you failed to parry a paw coming for you with the force of a vampire's claw. This is how I assume things will go if I boot up The Blood of Dawnwalker once its 1.1 update debuts. Devs Rebel Wolves, in their infinite wisdom, claim to be set to add in "directional animal petting" as part of it. Read more

Title: The creator of last year's cult hit RPG The Necromancer's Tale is back with The Lich Wars, a storybook RPG that follows 30 years of undead botheration Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 15:45:00 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/the-creator-of-last-years-cult-hit-rpg-the-necromancers-tale-is-back-with-the-lich-wars-a-storybook-rpg-that-follows-30-years-of-undead-botheration Psychic Software have announced The Lich Wars, a standalone prequel for their widely acclaimed RPG The Necromancer's Tale. Widely acclaimed by me, anyway. I'm pretty wide, these days – the local Morrisons keeps doing discounts on 80-biccy packets of bourbon creams. I liked The Necromancer's Tale specifically for how it wove a whole RPG around the narrative dynamics of a single RPG class, with players performing rituals in each chapter to develop their morbid spellcraft, while managing the suspicions of nearby townsfolk. I also really loved its choose-your-own-adventure prologue. The Lich Wars sort of spins the prologue out into a full game. Read more
