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.

Title: GameStop’s Rewards Program May Be Losing Its Best Feature – Report Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:21:39 +0000 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/gamestops-rewards-program-may-be-losing-its-best-feature-report/ Earlier this month, GameStop disclosed that it achieved the highest profit in the company's history during the first quarter of its latest fiscal year. Now, GameStop appears to be taking further steps to cut costs by reportedly making significant changes to its Pro Membership rewards program. According to Kotaku, new GameStop Pro members will no longer be able to earn Pro Points starting on July 15. Current Pro members are only getting a temporary reprieve until August 15. On that date, members will stop accruing Pro Points. Prior to these changes, GameStop Pro members could earn roughly 2% of their total purchases in points, which they could redeem for games or other merchandise at a later date. On Reddit, some GameStop employees are calling out the decision to take away the Pro Points and suggesting that they should collectively stop trying to upsell Pro Membership to customers. Their apparent disdain for this decision probably won't deter GameStop from going ahead with these changes. GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen has been in the news recently because of his intention to buy eBay even though his company lacks the resources or the full financial backing to purchase the online auction house. In response to Cohen's plans, eBay rejected his overture and described it as neither “credible nor attractive.” Cohen could still attempt a hostile takeover by appealing directly to eBay stockholders, but he has yet to do so.

Title: 5 Zelda Characters I’m Excited To See In The Ocarina Of Time Remake (And 5 That Need To Stay Away) Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 20:53:36 +0000 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/5-zelda-characters-im-excited-to-see-in-the-ocarina-of-time-remake-and-5-that-need-to-stay-away/ The original Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time occupies a similar space in my heart as The Black Cauldron, The Last Unicorn, The Neverending Story, The Dark Crystal, and all of the other fantastical experiences of the '80s and '90s in that, while fundamental to creating who I am today, they were also extremely dark. Though Majora's Mask is (understandably) referred to as the darkest Legend of Zelda game, it's crucial to remember that Ocarina of Time had its fair share of creepy content, too. Part of this is due to the game's themes and subtle focus on mortality, but it's also worth noting that some of this was simply due to there being some characters and enemies in that game were horrifying. That said, not all of Ocarina of Time's characters permanently scarred me. On the contrary, some of them perhaps even awoken something in me, but that's between me and the woman working at the Bombchu bowling alley. Regardless, the recent announcement of an Ocarina of Time remake has left me reminiscing about these characters, and I've grown increasingly eager to see how they might be reimagined in 2026. Here are the ones I am most excited to see, as well as the ones that are sure to re-haunt me once the game launches later this year. Stay away: The Lake Scientist In case you forgot, one of the first things this guy says to you is, "You may not have noticed, but I've been watching you," which is one hell of way to begin a conversation. While that's already enough to put a person on edge, The Lake Scientist's distinctly skeletal appearance certainly doesn't help things. With his Skulltula-shaped face, nearly detached jaw (which contains four equally spread apart teeth), and a distinctly haunted expression that seems to look past Link and into the very soul of the person playing the game, this man was an unreasonably frightening figure. Excited for: Richard I cannot wait to be reunited with Mamamu's precious (and precocious!) pup Richard. According to Mamamu, Richard is a special dog--one with the ability to outrun all of Hyrule Castle Town's other "mutts" and a "very special coat." Part of this, of course, seems likely to reflect Mamamu's own bias towards her beloved fur son, but you have to admit, the dog's got style. One of Ocarina of Time's most heartbreaking moments is when you see Mamamu in the future and she informs you that Richard passed away. "He was such a famous puppy," she proclaims, as she reminisces about the small, spunky terrier. He was, Mamamu. He really was. Stay away: Mido Listen, I know there are all these fan theories that claim Mido is actually a great character and so on and so forth, but to me, he will always be the belittling jerk who forces you to endure the game's beginning tutorial. If I hadn't played through Ocarina of Time so many times, maybe I'd be less annoyed by his presence--maybe I could appreciate that he simply wants me to be prepared for what lies ahead and has a few, normal insecurities he needs to work through. But repeated exposure has worn me down. To me, Mido feels a bit like the co-worker you desperately want to avoid because you just know he has something unnecessary to say to you and thrives on preventing you from actually getting your work done. Clearly I'm not alone in feeling this way, too--the Mido Skip Glitch is among the most exploited in Ocarina of Time by both speed runners and annoyed players like me. Excited for: The Great Fairies Get your mind out of the gutter, ya little freaks. I don't have the Great Fairies on here for that reason, though of course I'll admit they are all absolute baddies. No, their inclusion on this list is more so because I am obsessed with how mythical, strange, feminine, and unapologetic these divas are. From their bold makeup and skintight attire, to their dazzling, unashamed laughter, these ladies ooze charisma. In the same way that I am always eager to see what outfit Chappell Roan takes to the stage next, I am excited to see how the fairies love of glitz, glamour, and excess will be translated in the Ocarina of Time remake. Stay away: ReDead Even back in 1998, when their finer details were distorted by now-dated tech, Ocarina of Time's ReDeads scared the absolute hell out of me. The shriek? The way time would freeze as they inched closer, ready to wrap their fleshy, disfigured limbs across your body and feed? Five-year-old me was utterly horrified, and more than a few times, I straight up turned off my Nintendo 64 because I did not feel like dealing with the amount of anxiety they inflicted upon me. I'll admit, they're a good enemy and absolutely need to be in the remake; that's obvious. But that doesn't mean I'm happy about seeing how they look in 2026 and enduring their cries once more. Excited for: Saria In many ways, Saria serves as Ocarina of Time's beating heart--as a limitless source of comfort and hope, even in the darkest of times. From day one, she is unwavering in her loyalty to Link and her desire for a kinder world, treating even those like Mido with grace. Through her song, she acts as a voice of guidance and reassurance for our young hero, and a bringing of joy for the Kokiri people. If I haven't made it abundantly clear yet, I adore Saria and the understated yet vital role she plays in this game. I can't wait to see how the Ocarina of Time remake will both reimagine her and celebrate her legacy. Stay away: The Master Craftsman's Son On top of being unpleasant to look at this, this guy is also such a downer. He's rude for no reason and repeatedly talks about how disgusting society is. "People are disgusting," he remarks. "My own father and mother are disgusting. You must be disgusting, too." Sure, he's a bit nicer to you if you tame his chicken, but even then, his praise is immediately followed by a request that you do something for him. I don't know, man. He just brings me down. Excited for: The Bombchu Bowling Alley Operator Long before Ramona Flowers--whose hair colors were actually inspired by the Zelda series, come to think about it--there was the Bombchu bowling alley operator. With her baby bangs and crop top, I can only assume she is the Hylian equivalent of the extremely cute and cool girl who works at a coffee shop and always knows of a great band you should check out. In short, the Bombchu bowling alley operator is the indie girlfriend blueprint, and alongside Princess Jasmine, she was one of my first female crushes. I am excited to see how her look as evolved over the years, but also hope her alternative style isn't switched up too much. After all, she's an icon for a reason. Stay away: Dead Hands As if all of Hyrule's spiders--sorry, Skulltulas-- and ReDeads weren't enough, Nintendo had to add these guys into the mix too? Their color palette? Upsetting. The detached hands that pin you down so they can crane their neck and nearly xenomorph bite you to death? Extremely usetting. There is a reason that, despite having played multiple horror games throughout my adult life, Dead Hands stick out to me as some of the most grotesque and frightening creatures I've faced off against. Again, upsetting! Excited for: Dark Link Dark Link is a unique entry on this list in that he is an enemy who I am excited to see again, but what can I say? He's just that cool. After an 11-year hiatus, the shadowy figure returned to the Zelda series as a mini-boss in Ocarina of Time, and even back then, you could tell Nintendo wanted it to feel like a spectacle. In some ways, this fight feels like my first brush with entering a soulslike arena. Not in the style of gameplay or combat, obviously, but because it evoked that same feeling as passing through a fog gate and facing off against this highly capable and threateningly aware warrior--like Lady Maria in Bloodborne, for example. Not only am I excited to see how Dark Link is rendered in 2026, I'm excited to see how this entire battle plays out. It has the opportunity to be one of the game's biggest set pieces, and I hope they take advantage of it.

Title: Microsoft Considering Spinning Off Xbox, Speeding Up Elder Scrolls And Fallout Game Releases – Report Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 19:57:34 +0000 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/microsoft-considering-spinning-off-xbox-speeding-up-elder-scrolls-and-fallout-game-releases-report/ Microsoft's potential options for the future of the Xbox brand reportedly include spinning it off into a separate company or operating as a "wholly owned subsidiary" rather than a division within Microsoft. According to The Information (via Reuters), these are just a few of the options Microsoft is considering. Xbox has struggled mightily in recent years, most recently losing millions of subscribers to its Game Pass subscription service after a major price hike. Game Pass has, at least partially, seen improvement following a price cut that also removed new Call of Duty games from the library. A spin-off would, on paper, make the Xbox brand free from the high-profit-margin expectations of Microsoft as a whole, though it would also no longer have access to the vast resources of such a large company. The Information's report also said Microsoft is planning to increase investment in a few of Xbox's biggest franchises, including Halo, The Elder Scrolls, and Fallout, in order to speed up development, but just what that means remains unclear. The Elder Scrolls VI and Fallout 5 were both technically announced many years ago, with very few updates on either, while Halo: Campaign Evolved will serve as a stopgap of sorts when it launches next month--for the first time on PlayStation 5 in addition to Xbox and PC. That PS5 release may be a one-off for Halo, however, as Microsoft looks to renew focus on console exclusives. Gears of War: E-Day, for instance, reportedly had a PS5 version in the works, but is no longer coming to the platform.

Title: All The Free Fortnite Cosmetics Available To Unlock Right Now Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 19:03:00 +0000 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/all-the-free-fortnite-cosmetics-available-to-unlock-right-now/2900-7550/ Fortnite is known as much for its paid cosmetics as it is for having arguably the best Battle Royale modes around. But these days, Fortnite offers so many free cosmetics at any given time that it's easier than ever to enjoy it without dropping a penny on skins, emotes, or other cosmetics. In Chapter 7 Season 3, there are free items to unlock for every Epic-created mode, so you don't have to give up on collecting Fortnite cosmetics even if you're feeling the pain caused by the V-Buck price increase. With so much free stuff, it's not always easy to tell what is available to unlock, since there's no "here's all the free stuff you can earn" page in Fortnite itself. Scroll on to find out what exactly you can get, and what modes you'll need to play or, in some cases, what websites you'll need to make accounts for. Chapter 7 Season 3 battle pass free items The Chapter 7 Season 2 battle pass, which runs until August 20, includes 28 items that you can earn for free by leveling up without buying the pass, as well as 200 V-Bucks that can be used in the item shop or put toward buying the battle pass, Lego pass, OG pass, or music pass. Many of the items are minor cosmetics like sprays, emoticons, loading screens, and banner icons. Highlights: Sprite Seat back bling Spirit Blade pickaxe Blade of the Void pickaxe Voidblade's Voyager glider Quack Coaster glider Cluster Case back bling Soundwave Basher pickaxe Radio Rider glider Gold Chainsaw pickaxe Dylan's Fur's weapon wrap Innovator's Special weapon wrap Wick's Axe bass/pickaxe/back bling Advertisement Music Pass free items The Laufey music pass includes nine free items that you can earn without buying the pass by leveling up in any Fortnite experience.

Items: Grand Keyano keytar Lantera microphone Vibrant Dream aura Get Uptempo emote L'amour Cache jam track Blue English jam track After Dark jam track Loves Like a Lady jam track Advertisement OG Pass free items The Fortnite OG Season 8 OG pass includes 12 items you can unlock by leveling up without actually buying the pass, including two gliders, one pickaxes, two back blings, a weapon wrap, and an emote. There are also some less interesting items, like sprays, emoticons, banner icons, and a loading screen. Items: Luxe Scythe pickaxe Golden Vaultwings glider Captain's Tally weapon wrap Take the Wheel emote Volcanic Cache back bling Draconic Drifter glider Synthesis Sai back bling Advertisement Rocket League Every car and SUV in Fortnite is also in Rocket League, and that means the best way to earn car-related cosmetics is by playing Rocket League. For starters, you can unlock the Backfire car body (pictured) and seven decals in both games simply by completing the tutorial quests for new players. A number of other car bodies, wheels, and other accessories can be unlocked at random via loot crates that you can earn by completing weekly and seasonal challenges. Any car body or accessory can be pulled from those crates, in theory. Advertisement Rocket Pass Like Fortnite's passes, the Rocket Pass also includes a variety of free items. Many of these items aren't the types of things that have an equivalent in Fortnite, like car toppers. But the Season 23 Rocket Pass, which runs until September 23, includes a set of wheels and a rocket boost. You must play Rocket League to make progress on the Rocket Pass. Items: Bitcrush rocket boost Temple wheels Advertisement Rocket League tournaments Participating in Rocket League tournaments and getting wins earns points that can be used to open loot crates that contain random cosmetics. In Season 22, six of these items transfer to Fortnite. Items: Bad Rad wheels Cheesy wheels Meticulous wheels Chromium wheels Smokin' trail Soulmesh boost Advertisement Lego Pass The Soaring Skies Lego pass includes two loading screens, and 7 sets of Lego Fortnite decor items, and one Lego Fortnite airship that can be unlocked for free by leveling up in any Fortnite experience. These items are for building in Lego Fortnite Odyssey, Lego Fortnite Brick Life, and other Lego-related Creative experiences. Yes, the airship really works, and you can fly around in it. Items: Luft-Llama Longboat airship Luft-Llama Jumbo Thruster decor Luft-Llama Steering Helm decor Luft-Llama Hot Air Balloon Dreadnought Steering Setup decor Dreadnought Anchorage Apparatus decor Ryumura Food Market decor Ryumura Nightfall Garden decor Dawn of the Shatter Spawn loading screen Broadside Balloon Blitz loading screen Advertisement Connect a Lego account with your Epic Games account Connect a Lego account with your Epic Games account to instantly unlock both the Fortnite and Lego styles for the Explorer Emilie and Mr. Dappermint skins.

Title: 2026 Upcoming Games Release Schedule Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2025 13:34:00 +0000 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/2026-upcoming-games-release-schedule/1100-6534941/ 2026 has begun, and it looks to be a very exciting year for video games.

Title: Blood Message gameplay preview reveals an action game on par with God of War Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 22:30:20 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/blood-message-preview-summer-game-fest/ God of War Laufey, the next grand action game from Sony Santa Monica, was one of Summer Game Fest season’s biggest reveals. At this point, that studio (and PlayStation as a whole) has a reputation for making some of the most cinematic third-person action games out there: Ghost of Yōtei, God of War Ragnarök, and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 are smash hits from just the past few years. But PlayStation is about to get some serious competition in the space, as I recently learned from going hands-on with a new game called Blood Message.

Probably not, as the segment it aired in included a new trailer for Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced. Instead of showcasing pirate action, Sea of Remnants used Summer Game Fest to share a music video for “Make it Loud,” featuring several characters rocking out in colorful liminal spaces, with only occasional shots of a pirate ship or a pub, and less than a couple of seconds of gameplay footage.

Title: NVIDIA, KRAFTON, NC and Reigning ‘League of Legends’ Champions T1 Celebrate RTX Spark at Korea’s PC Bangs Date: Sun, 07 Jun 2026 07:00:15 +0000 Link: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/krafton-nc-t1-korea-gaming-pc-bang-rtx-spark/ At GTC Taipei at COMPUTEX last week, NVIDIA unveiled RTX Spark, the superchip that reinvents Windows PCs for the era of personal AI agents. On the heels of this announcement, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang headed to South Korea, where he introduced RTX Spark to the nation’s passionate gaming community. Leading game developers — including Korea’s KRAFTON and NC — are already working to bring their titles to RTX Spark-powered systems.  Designed for local AI, creating and gaming, RTX Spark brings together 30 years of NVIDIA innovation to slim Windows laptops with all-day battery life and small, ultraefficient desktop PCs.  With the superchip, gamers can play AAA games at 1440p resolution and over 100 frames per second with NVIDIA ray tracing, DLSS and Reflex technologies. In addition, RTX Spark supports all NVIDIA RTX technologies, including the recently announced DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction, which features a second-generation transformer model for realistic image quality.  RTX Spark Ignites Korea’s Gaming Community Korea has played a major role in spearheading esports and driving the boom in PC bangs, or internet and gaming cafes. With longstanding collaborations rooted in the country, NVIDIA in October celebrated 25 years of GeForce in Korea with a free festival for gamers, highlighting the rich gaming ecosystem that has been built over decades.    On Friday, Huang headed to T1 Base Camp — a PC bang owned by T1, one of Korea’s top esports teams. There, he met with T1’s reigning League of Legends World Champion team, including six-time World Champion Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok to unveil RTX Spark.  NVIDIA and Riot Games — developer of League of Legends — are collaborating to bring the title as well as VALORANT to RTX Spark, expanding gamers’ access to high-performance gaming on slim laptops.  To mark the occasion, T1 Base Camp attendees had the chance to win RTX Spark laptops, League of Legends and T1 merch signed by Huang and Faker, as well as GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs.  Surprising PC-Bang Gamers  Later, Huang headed to Seoul’s Gangnam district, where he surprised PC-bang gamers with a first look at RTX Spark with KRAFTON and NC.  At the first stop, Optimum Zone PC, Huang and KRAFTON Chairman Byung-gyu Chang showcased PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS and Subnautica 2 on RTX Spark to a captivated crowd of gamers.  Gamers then got the surprise chance to play with the unreleased PUBG Ally, a co-playable character built with NVIDIA ACE technologies on RTX Spark laptops. PUBG Ally resulted from AI research and development at KRAFTON and NVIDIA, part of an initiative to create next-generation game characters that act like teammates and enable more meaningful, immersive engagements with players. Next, Huang stopped at another PC bang, Portal PC, where he showcased NC’s CINDER CITY and AION 2 on RTX Spark, with support from Taekjin Kim, co-CEO of NC.  NC and NVIDIA began working together in the early 2000s on the Lineage franchise and have since collaborated to integrate RTX technology into many of NC’s flagship games, including Lineage 2, AION, Blade & Soul, AION 2 and CINDER CITY.  Gamers at Portal PC were given the chance to play a demo of NC’s highly anticipated open-world massively multiplayer online tactical shooter CINDER CITY on GeForce RTX-powered PCs.   CINDER CITY will support the DLSS 4.5 Dynamic Multi Frame Generation and Super Resolution features at launch. Plus, gamers will be able to experience the title on slim RTX Spark laptops and compact desktops when the game is released later this year.  In addition to KRAFTON, NC, and Riot Games, 100+ Windows software providers and game developers are embracing RTX Spark. These partners include NetEase, Remedy Entertainment and XBOX.  Learn more about RTX Spark and its launch partners.

GeForce NOW is dialing up the espionage with the launch of 007 First Light, letting members slip into James Bond’s reimagined origin story from almost any device — no tux or preloads required.  For a limited time, the game is included with the purchase of a 12‑month GeForce NOW Ultimate membership, letting members lock in Bond’s next mission and a year of top-tier cloud gaming in one shot. And for those stepping into the role, the look comes with it. Daring Elite Outfit, a signature look capturing the spirit of a rising agent, is now available for Ultimate members — equal parts discipline, ambition and edge. And catch Capcom’s Resident Evil Requiem demo in the cloud — catch an early portion of the game and discover its two sides: terrifying survival horror with Grace Ashcroft, and pulse-pounding action with Leon S. Kennedy This GFN Thursday also brings eight new games to the cloud, expanding the library with even more ways to play across genres. Mission Assigned First light, first mission. The mission begins before the legend. 007 First Light puts players in the shoes of James Bond at the dawn of his career, when instincts are sharp, rules are flexible and every decision shapes the agent he’s destined to become. This is a Bond who’s still earning his “00” — unpolished, dangerous and learning when to trust a plan and when to improvise under fire. A cinematic spy thriller unfolds with high-stakes infiltration, tense encounters and stylish set pieces. One moment brings thrills working undercover at an opulent event — the next, white‑knuckle chases and close‑quarters confrontations where timing and composure are everything. Approaches to each mission — quiet and calculated, bold and aggressive, or something in between — define Bond’s path and the allies and enemies that cross it. Stream it all with GeForce RTX 50 Series GPU power in the cloud, with up to 5K high dynamic range and cinematic-quality streaming for Ultimate members.

Sleek, confident and just a little dangerous, it’s built for agents who understand that presence is a part of the playbook. All rewards are available starting now through Saturday, June 27, or while supplies last. To claim, log in to a GeForce NOW account, head to the rewards section in the account portal and redeem. Keep It Heated Time to get heated. Armored battles get hero-driven in Wargaming’s free-to-play, player vs. player vehicle shooter, World of Tanks: HEAT, now streaming on GeForce NOW. World of Tanks: HEAT is the franchise’s first hero-driven tank action game, where powerful Agents and their experimental machines shape every fight. Fast-paced 5v5 and 10v10 matches erupt into high-velocity brawls as hero-enhanced tanks trade explosive bursts, clutch escapes and momentum-shifting abilities. Each Agent brings a unique tool kit and vehicle lineup, layering team roles and synergy on top of sharp aim and smart positioning. It’s classic steel-on-steel combat with a hero-shooter twist, now available in the cloud. The next match is always just a quick deployment away on GeForce NOW.

Title: Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis hands-on report Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2026 13:00:07 +0000 Link: https://blog.playstation.com/2026/06/11/tomb-raider-legacy-of-atlantis-hands-on-report/ Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis is a fresh, reimagined take on Lara Croft’s first adventure. I recently played about an hour of Legacy of Atlantis at Summer Game Fest 2026, and saw first-hand how developers Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog are bringing elements from the original game and its first remake, 2007’s Tomb Raider Anniversary, into the modern era. The preview took me to the Lost Valley area in Peru, where I was tasked with solving a new version of Tomb Raider’s iconic cog puzzle. Here, two cogs are needed to reconnect a mechanism that can stop the flow of a nearby waterfall, revealing the door that will let her deeper into the hidden jungle. The mechanism sits in a small pond, and while the first cog is easy to come by, you’ll have to discover the second on your own. Play Video This first portion of the Lost Valley contains no combat, instead putting an emphasis on finding your way through an area full of side paths that can lead you to collectibles and hidden items. Pointedly, Legacy of Atlantis provides little guidance on where to find your missing cog. Instead, you have to use clues in the environment to figure out where to go for yourself. It’s an intentional choice that plays into Lara’s character as an archaeologist and explorer — and finding the right path through the area was, at times, pretty difficult. “If we put you in the boots of Lara Croft, and then hand you a map, or give you Waze directions on where to go, you’re going to feel like, ‘Where’s the challenge in that? Where’s the connection to the character and the headspace that she’s at?'” said Jeff Adams, Experience Director at Crystal Dynamics, during an interview after my session. But Game Director Raul Siqueira at Crystal Dynamics also noted that the team didn’t want to give the impression that Legacy of Atlantis is meant to be a difficult game. Instead, he said, it’s meant to give players the tools they need to create the experience they enjoy, including the ability to increase guidance, and to set the difficulty of puzzles and combat independent from one another. Exploring is its own reward, too. You can find caves by diving down into the pool by hitting Circle while you’re swimming, or discover handholds in walls that lead into ruined buildings, and more. Many of the items to be found yielded rare materials that suggested crafting will be a big part of Lara’s experience, too, although it wasn’t part of the demo.  As in the past, Lara is an acrobatic explorer, hanging off and leaping between ledges with X and using a grappling hook to cross large gaps with Triangle. You’ll even sometimes swing between horizontal poles, timing when to hit X to let go at just the right moment. Though it took a while of searching, I eventually found my way to the last gear, stuck to an ancient wooden contraption. I found a path to climb up and swing across to the gear so Lara could kick it loose, knocking it down into the stream so it would flow down to the mechanism below. After aligning the cogs, the ancient machine started working, the waterfall closed off, and Lara made her way through the doors. Moments later, I stepped back into the jungle — only for velociraptors to leap from the foliage and attack. Here, I finally got to fire away with Lara’s classic dual pistols, which unload as you hold down R2. You can either fire the guns one at a time while on the run, or tighten your aim and go full bore by holding L2 while you shoot. The raptors are quick, fearsome predators, heaving themselves at Lara with vicious attacks, and it quickly became clear that the key to combat in Legacy of Atlantis is to stay mobile and aggressive yourself. When you press Circle, Lara will dive, roll, and cartwheel to deftly escape incoming attacks. Between the exploration elements like swinging from poles, Lara’s long jumps, and the acrobatic dodges and dives in combat, Legacy of Atlantis takes on a bit of a throwback feel. Lara has a slight floatiness that gives the impression of how she felt to control in older Tomb Raider games. It’s a fun melding of modern game design and old-school game feel.  Verify your age to view this content. Verify your age to view this content. “We did look at combat from the lenses of, like, what did we do during the Survivor era [during the last three games] that made sense for Lara at that time in her life, that may not make sense for Lara at the top of her game, which is where we find her in Legacy of Atlantis?” Siqueira told me. “So we were very conscious of, Lara in combat needs to move the same way that she moves in traversal, she needs to move the same way that she does with her puzzles, it needs to be distinctively hers, it needs to have like all the flourishes that you expect, the acrobatics — everything that you want that power fantasy of Lara Croft to be needs to be present.” Verify your age to view this content. Verify your age to view this content. As you attack enemies, you’ll earn Focus, which you can then spend by hitting R1. Doing so lets Lara do a gymnastic flip while time briefly slows, allowing you to fire your guns while dodging. Siqueira said the developers used Focus to help give players an advantage over enemies, so they wouldn’t feel like Lara’s distinct, acrobatic movements were leaving them vulnerable. After pushing down the path and fighting off a few more groups of dinosaurs, things really took a turn. A massive tyrannosaurus rex burst through the trees, triggering a chase scene as Lara and the raptors both went sprinting away from its snapping jaws. While this was a set piece moment, it was still challenging, requiring me to make a careful leap as Lara went sliding down a muddy hill, or to quickly climb a wall, to avoid becoming a snack. The demo ended soon after on a heart-pumping cliffhanger as the T-rex closed in. During my brief time with it, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis did a lot to capture the old-school feeling of the Tomb Raider series, but with a lot of modern sensibilities. You can leap into Lara Croft’s first adventure yourself when Legacy of Atlantis launches on February 12, 2027.

Title: Summer Game Fest 2026: Hands-on and more details on 11 upcoming PS5 games Date: Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:00:52 +0000 Link: https://blog.playstation.com/2026/06/08/summer-game-fest-2026-hands-on-and-more-details-on-11-upcoming-ps5-games/ Summer Game Fest Play Days featured a ton of new titles this year, with developers and publishers giving lots of chances to see, and play, a variety of games coming to PS5. I visited SGF Play Days this year to see these upcoming titles in action, and go hands-on with many of them. Here’s everything I played and saw at Summer Game Fest. Alien: Isolation 2 | Release Date: TBD  Publisher: Sega | Developer: Creative Assembly More than a decade after the original was released, Alien: Isolation 2 slithered through a vent to terrify at SGF. I played the game’s prologue, taking on the role of a Weyland-Yutani executive who just arrived on the remote colony planet that serves as the game’s setting. As you’re riding in a rover with two other characters, there’s suddenly a flash and a nearby explosion. The three of you pile out of the rover and you set out into the woods to try to find out what happened. As you make your way through the barren forest, you soon come across the site of what looks like a crashed ship. Alien: Isolation fans will quickly realize this isn’t a ship, it’s the Project KG-348 lab that Amanda Ripley jettisoned from Savastopol station in the first game. That’s the lab where she trapped the alien that had hunted her for the entire first half of Alien: Isolation before she sent it off into space. Of course, the ill-fated group of humans venture inside. After you spend some time exploring and restarting the lab’s power with similar chunky, tactile controls as in the original game, like mashing X to start a generator, the creature reveals itself, dropping from the vents above and stomping away, barely missing you. At least in this prologue, Alien: Isolation 2 feels just like its predecessor. You can crouch to stay tow and quiet with Circle, keep out of sight by ducking behind objects and under tables, and peek around objects to get an eye on the creature by holding L1 and using the analog stick. You can also use tools to distract the xenomorph; in the prologue, I found a couple of flares that could be lit and thrown to draw its attention. But with no motion tracker, you have to rely on your senses to keep track of the alien and avoid its lethal pursuit. The creature is just as smart as it was before, too — it’ll search for you and listen for your footsteps, and even open cabinets or look under tables if it suspects you’re around. I narrowly missed getting grabbed when the creature decided to duck down and check the table I’d been cowering beneath as it walked by. And just like in the last game, you can’t kill the alien; you can only avoid it and hide from it.

I played for about 90 minutes and found it satisfyingly fast and frenetic, and just as fascinatingly weird as its predecessor. My hands-on demo began at the start of the game, taking on the role of protagonist Dylan Faden. After a stalemate battle during the last seven years, The Oldest House has fallen to the Hiss, and the remaining agents of the Federal Bureau of Control evacuate into New York City to face a new threat. Despite his past, Dylan pledges to help fight the Hiss and correct the damage he helped cause. He’s also searching for his sister, Control protagonist Jesse. Though she’s not the protagonist, Jesse is a big part of the story, from what I saw. Dylan is in contact with Jesse in a way that seems to transcend physical space, just as characters sometimes do in Control and Alan Wake 2. Control Resonant gets you right into the action, using Dylan’s parautilitarian abilities and his shapeshifting weapon, the Aberrant, to take the fight to the Hiss. After just a few minutes, I unlocked some powerful movement abilities: hitting Circle lets you dash twice before touching the ground, and X lets you double-jump. Holding X allows you to levitate briefly in the air. All those abilities together make you incredibly mobile, able to leap up to rooftops, cross huge gaps, and chase down enemies. Combat is both easy to pick up and seems to offer a high skill ceiling. Hitting Square swings the Aberrant for your standard strike, while Triangle activates a secondary form you choose, so you can build combos. Other powerful paranatural abilities are mapped to L1, R1, and R2. Battles are often about darting around, taking down enemies quickly with your attacks, while you work to dodge incoming strikes and use your ridiculous mobility to control the flow of combat. As in Control, you’re rewarded for your pure aggression; enemies drop healing items as you defeat them to keep you going. The demo concluded with a boss fight against a huge head cobbled together from road signs, steel girders, and chunks of concrete, using them as projectiles or swinging debris to take Dylan out. It highlighted both the scale of what you’ll face and how your quick reactions and smart use of Dylan’s abilities will let you take on any threat. Onimusha: Way of the Sword | Release Date: September 25, 2026 Publisher: Capcom | Developer: Capcom Capcom provided a new chance to go hands-on with Onimusha: Way of the Sword at SGF, with this look showing off the game’s more open areas, as opposed to the more linear demo we saw previously. This demo takes protagonist Musashi to a temple and the surrounding village in Kyoto, where he encounters people with strange injuries and big smiles. Turns out, people are visiting the temple to ask for changes in their fates, but whatever’s answering their prayers is twisting their wishes. One man asks to be free of knee pain, and loses his leg — no knee, no pain. Musashi and his talking, supernatural Oni gauntlet quickly surmise that a demonic Genma is impersonating the temple’s deity and set out to cleanse it. In addition to giving another chance to practice Onimusha’s intense sword combat, with its many defensive maneuvers that allow you to break an opponent, deflect or parry their strikes, and execute them in brutal fashion, this demo puts an emphasis on exploration. The area around the temple includes a number of side paths where you’ll encounter enemies and can search for crafting materials or other items to strengthen Musashi. The demo culminates in a tough boss fight with the Genma, who reveals they’re using wishes to harvest body parts from the unsuspecting, enthralled villagers. Like all the toughest fights in Onimusha: Way of the Sword, the fight relies heavily on perfectly dodging with Circle, parrying with L1, and deflecting by holding L1 and pressing X. The boss brings some intense attacks of its own, like using supernatural tentacles that will grab and drop boulders and even whole houses on Musashi. Capcom also showed off more of Onimusha in a hands-off theater presentation, which put Musashi in another area he was free to explore, larger than the temple area, complete with a variety of activities to seek out and complete. In that demo, we saw Musashi take on what looked like a side mission to clear the demonic corruption that had overtaken a kabuki stage, battling a pair of tough bosses along the way. From what I played and saw, it looks like Onimusha: Way of the Sword will offer a game world that will be full of things to discover and tough battles that will test your skills. Play Video Resident Evil Veronica | Release Date: TBD Publisher: Capcom | Developer: Capcom The next game in the Resident Evil series, Resident Evil Veronica, continues the publisher’s long list of remakes of classic titles in the series, this time modernizing 2000’s Resident Evil: Code Veronica. First and foremost, Hirabayashi confirmed that Resident Evil: Veronica will be a third-person game. While the Veronica trailer revealed at SGF plays from a first-person perspective and Capcom’s last Resident Evil game, Requiem, featured both first-person and third-person options, it sounds like we can expect RE: Veronica to stick close to the original when it comes to how you’ll play it. Capcom didn’t show anything of Resident Evil Veronica at SGF beyond its announcement trailer, but it did offer a presentation from Producer Yoshiaka Hirabayashi, who provided a little more insight. Hirabayashi confirmed that Resident Evil Veronica will be a third-person game, it’s being developed by the team that remade Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4, and emphasized that Capcom sees Veronica as just as critical to the series as the numbered titles. That’s particularly true, he said, because the story involves so many characters who are important to the series — namely, protagonists Claire Redfield and her brother Chris, and antagonist Albert Wesker. We can also expect Resident Evil Veronica to retell the story of the original Code Veronica while bringing it more in line with the series’ overall lore and storytelling, Hirabayashi said. “The original Code Veronica was released in the year 2000, so since the year 2000, of course, there have been many entries in the Resident Evil series, and the history of the world, the lore, and the story of Resident Evil have proportionally increased,” he said. “So, as you might have noticed in other remake titles, when we do revisit those older titles, we do kind of retune some things, so that there’s more continuity and there’s more of a connection to the overall lore of the universe that’s been established. So that’s true for other entries, and that’s going to be true for this one as well.” We’ll have to wait for more concrete details on Resident Evil Veronica, but if the launch trailer and past Resident Evil remakes are any indication, horror fans have a lot to look forward to.

In a hands-off demo, Bloober and Anshar explained how Genesis channels the SAW franchise for a different approach to battles between killers and survivors. First and foremost, the “one” in this asymmetrical horror game, the Judge, isn’t a killer, per se, and is actually at a disadvantage against the other players, known as the Accused, in a direct confrontation. Instead, the Judge is a mastermind, moving around the procedurally generated map to set traps for the other players. The Judge has access to hidden areas like tunnels and balconies the other players can’t get to, and while the Judge doesn’t know where the other players are, they can figure it out by listening for telltale signs like footsteps. The goal of the Judge is to isolate players, ambush and immobilize them, and dump them down chutes into deadly Retribution Traps. These are the sorts of elaborate torture devices the SAW series is known for, and to escape, players will either need the help of their fellow Accused, or to sacrifice a part of their body to stave off death. But those sacrifices will have consequences; if you give up some fingers to escape a trap with your life, you won’t be able to do things like turn valves that might open doors, and your friends will need to help you. Meanwhile, the Accused must survive and escape, and the best way to do that is by working together to save each other from traps and minimize how much each player is hurt individually. Finding items like weapons can give the Accused an edge if they catch the Judge in the open, or if the Judge summons a powerful accomplice character to help them. SAW: Genesis also adds new lore to the SAW franchise; it’s set in the 1920s, and its Judge character is the person who inspired SAW’s iconic, trap-deploying villain, Jigsaw. Bloober said it intends for SAW: Genesis to be completely canonical to the SAW movies, so for fans, SAW: Genesis looks to be a fascinating addition to the series’ lore, as well as a scary good time with friends.

We played a mission from the middle of Fireteam Elite 2’s campaign, in which we were tasked with making our way through a derelict spaceship overrun by aliens and aggressive Weyland Yutani androids. Fireteam Elite 2 expands your cooperative third-person shooter squad from three to four, but you’ll face huge hordes of creatures as you make your way through missions. Our fireteam faced off against some familiar enemies, including standard xenos, huge and powerful Drones, and hidden, stalking Prowlers, as well as baton-wielding synthetics and more capable synths equipped with rifles or riot shields. But we also faced a few new enemies, including xenomorphs with huge acid sacs growing from their heads whose goal is to get close and explode on you, and armored, spider-like robots that take quite a bit of firepower to put down. To aid in your battle, you can find weapons and items as in the last game, like sentry turrets and health packs. Scour each mission and you can also nab new ammo types, such as incendiary rounds, cryo rounds, and electrical rounds, which make your weapons more effective against certain enemies — at least until they run out.Developer Cold Iron Studios has made some changes to character classes, but it sounds like they’ll be even more customizable than they were in the last game. I played a medic, which had the capability of dropping a portable healing device that could help my teammates deal with their injuries, but only temporarily since it dispensed health that would slowly decay over time, and an Overclock ability that sped up the reloading and weapon switching of anyone nearby. I saw a few other abilities in action, too, like the Machinist’s deployable flying drone, as well as grenades that could freeze enemies or hit them with electrical bursts. It sounds like Fireteam Elite 2 is making a lot of changes that were requested by fans of the first game, while maintaining the first’s white-knuckle action and challenge. fully expect to get overrun by the universe’s greatest killing machine when the Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 is released.

In a hands-off presentation from Director Kenji Kanno, we got a few more details about what looks to be a big expansion on the ridiculous original. The main focus in Crazy Taxi World Tour is on its story mode, which spans five locations in five different countries — hence the “world tour.” While Kanno wouldn’t share many details, we do know that the story kicks off when the protagonist Axel’s car is stolen, kicking off his globe-trotting adventure to retrieve it. With World Tour, the development team is taking the opportunity to build on the characters of Crazy Taxi, expanding on their personalities and backstories, as well as the lore of the series overall. As in the original games, a big part of the action will be picking up passengers and delivering them to their destinations, with the speediest, most ridiculous driving you can manage. Your taxi is decked out with new abilities, like boosting and reversing with the quick back dash. But there’s more to the experience than earning CRAZY money. You’ll also meet different characters and help them out with special activities, like helping deliver a huge stack of pizzas without losing them all over the street, and using your taxi to help a fisherman cast his line ridiculously far, and then hitting reverse to haul in some monster catches. Some of those activities will be silly, and others will be a little more serious, but they all play into Kanno’s vision of creating cities that feel alive with people as you drive, drift, and crash through them. World Tour is also helping the Crazy Taxi developers realize some features that never made it into past games — namely multiplayer, which they couldn’t manage in Crazy Taxi 2 or 3 because of technical limitations. Though there’s a lot we still don’t know, the presentation did show off a few other elements we can expect, like odd jobs to complete and a progression system that’ll have you leveling up as you complete fares and tasks. And Kanno also confirmed that this time, you can drive in the ocean. Play Video gen Atlas | Release Date TBD Publisher: Epic Games | Developer: genDesign The next title from acclaimed developer Fumito Ueda received a second trailer during the SGF Showcase, but it’s still just as cryptic as when it was announced last year at The Game Awards. I got to see a little more than what appeared in the trailer in a hands-off demo, and spoke to Ueda about what players can expect from the new game. In gen Atlas, you awake on a world filled with technologically advanced ruins, with hulking, destroyed mechanical figures scattered across it — a world seemingly abandoned by humanity. What happened here and why everyone is gone is up to you to discover, and as the trailer shows, part of how you’ll do that is by uncovering the head of a giant robot. From what we’ve seen so far, the robot will help you to get around and explore the world, and sometimes allow you to commandeer titanic robot bodies to use for various functions, including solving puzzles and fighting other colossal machines. Ueda wouldn’t share too much about the action-adventure game, but did say there are a number of different ways you’ll get around and engage with the world, both with and without the help of the robot, striking a balance between exploration and solving puzzles. While Ueda’s previous games — Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian — formed a sort of trilogy, with similar settings, characters, and ideas, you shouldn’t expect gen Atlas to be another riff on similar ideas. In fact, Ueda said the sci-fi setting and the focus on giant robots were the result of him trying to do something new, different, and unexpected. “If I put myself in the shoes of the player or a fan that’s been following my own games, I think I would actually want something of a surprise or something that is unexpected of an Ueda game, and I feel the same way,” Ueda said. “If I deliver something that’s sort of on the extension of what I’ve made, I might actually not be as excited, to be quite honest. So I want to keep that sort of excitement and even try to deliver beyond people’s imagination and expectation.” Ueda said he hopes to be the kind of creator whose audiences can’t predict what he’ll make next. With that in mind, we’ll have to wait to see exactly what kind of experience and mystery Ueda delivers in gen Atlas. Play Video Silent Hill: Townfall  | Release Date: September 24, 2026 Publisher: Annapurna Interactive, Konami | Developer: Screen Burn Interactive Developer Screen Burn didn’t provide a chance to play Silent Hill: Townfall at SGF this year, but it did offer a hands-off demo that gave a pretty good sense of how you’ll make your way through its foggy, frightening Scottish town. Central to the first-person experience in Townfall is its portable TV set, Screen Burn’s riff on Silent Hill’s classic, staticky radio. In past games, the radio’s white noise grows louder as enemies draw close, giving you a sense of when you’re about to be attacked as you make your way through the town’s thick fog. In Townfall, the TV helps you deal with enemies, while also providing you with navigational clues and other useful information. In the live demo I watched, protagonist Simon could tune the TV to find signals within the static, including a message from a woman called Zoe, which draws him on through the town. The signal provided still images of locations and objects nearby, giving Simon clues as to where he should go. Zoe’s message was coming from a nearby house, and to get there, he followed the images past some stalls and a tree planted in the middle of the concrete walkway, before finding an alley shown in the images and making his way to the house’s back door. Inside, we saw that Simon will be working to solve puzzles in true Silent Hill fashion, including working to reset an electrical breaker. Later, Simon used the TV for a different purpose: to spot one of Townfall’s hideous, fleshy monsters. Tuning the TV to an enemy’s signal lets you see it through walls, allowing you to gauge where it is in the fog so that you can sneak by. Evasion will be a big part of how you make your way through Townfall — using peek controls to carefully check around corners will be an important way to avoid getting got as you explore. Soon after, Simon found a plank of wood to use as a melee weapon to show off Townfall’s melee combat, which is fast and brutal. While it’s possible to block incoming attacks as you fight, it took only a few hits for Simon to fall, suggesting that fights like this are extremely risky and might be best avoided. While my look at Silent Hill: Townfall was brief, it looks like an intriguing and frightening take on the franchise’s formula, and I can’t wait to see more.

The next entry into the Pico Park series sees Sonic and his pals teaming up for some cooperative multiplayer chaos. Along with three other journalists, I played the eight quick stages that make up Sonic Pico Park’s tutorial, which showed off how you’ll control Sonic characters and cooperate to solve various deceptively simple-looking puzzles. When you jump into Sonic Pico Park with three friends, you’ll each play a different character from the Sonic universe: Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Sonic the Hedgehog himself. All of them are speedy runners and can spin dash when you hit Circle. Working together is key, since the screen only advances forward when all four characters head to the right, and some obstacles will require all of you to surmount them. We quickly ran into walls that were too high for a single character to climb, requiring us to jump on each other’s heads to make a tower to get one person over, or bridges that would collapse if we didn’t all quickly sprint across them at the same time. One puzzle needed a character to spin-dash up a ramp to a high platform, and three of us needed to form a wall by standing on each other’s heads so the fourth could use us to dash up. In another, the only way to cross a long gap was with Tails’ flight ability. Tails can carry another character if you hit X to jump up and catch him, and other characters can hold onto the first one — but with all four characters weighing him down, Tails starts to lose altitude from the strain, so we had to quickly cover the gap before we fell. Classic elements of Sonic games make appearances in Sonic Pico Park’s puzzles. We needed to use spring launchers to cross a big gap in one puzzle, while avoiding the ones that were facing in the wrong directions and could send some of us bouncing off each other. And in true Sonic fashion, sometimes, the solution to the problem is speed. Where Sonic Pico Park got really fun was in the chaos that four characters trying to work together can create. Even in the first few levels, we saw plenty of trouble as we knocked each other into pits or spikes in goofy fashion, and I can only imagine how more complex levels will create even more ridiculous situations.

The new title combines what fans love about the series — its pitched, 3D fighting game battles — with the storytelling and worldbuilding developer RGG Studio is known for. Sega brought journalists in for a hands-off presentation with Creative Director Riichiro Yamada that expanded on the trailer launched during SGF. Crossroads takes place 10 or more years in the future from Virtua Fighter 5, and features four protagonists, each a fighter living in the fictional South Asian country of Vilaspara. We’ve primarily seen Cielo, the Paraguayan-American fighter who serves as the beginning, relatable protagonist in the story. But while Cielo’s story is one of personal growth as he works to make a name for himself as a fighter, expect to see the story take darker turns and change tones with the other characters. Player choice is going to be a major part of the single-player experience, with a branching narrative that can change depending on the things you do, the choices you make, and the relationships you build, like those between Cielo and his friends. And while you’ll meet other legendary Virtua Fighter characters along the way, they may be friend or foe — how they treat you and what happens with them might be dependent on your actions. Above all, though, Yamada said the team wants Crossroads to be grounded and believable within the Virtua Fighter universe. Combat in Crossroads takes on the classic Virtua Fighter flare, flipping to a side-on camera perspective when you start throwing punches and kicks. You’ll fight in both one-on-one battles and against groups of enemies, but Yamada said the team has worked to mix action-adventure combat with Virtua Fighter’s approach, and to modernize it. In addition to the single-player campaign, there’s also a one-on-one player-versus-player mode, and Yamada said part of the idea behind Crossroads is to create ways for players to develop their fighting game skills in the campaign, so they can take them into battle with their friends. Above all, he said, the team wants the game to be fun and approachable, whether they’re long-time Virtua Fighter fans or just coming to the series for the first time. —– We’ll add even more games to this list over the next few days, so stay tuned.

Title: What are we all playing this weekend? Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2026 07:00:00 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/what-are-we-all-playing-this-weekend-386 The weather has been an unpredictable mess of downpour and blazing sun this week, but Saturday feels like it could be the turn. Another chance for the sun to yank on the starter cord of summer and get that season's engine thrumming. I simply refuse to have to turn back from another walk around the park because 10 metres from my front door the lovely sunshine is replaced by pelting rain. Read more

Title: I sure hope Crimson Desert's new pet limit means I can own 100 pigeons at once, even if I'll only have 50 in camp because Pearl Abyss are cowards Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 16:13:26 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/i-sure-hope-crimson-deserts-new-pet-limit-means-i-can-own-100-pigeons-at-once-even-if-ill-only-have-50-in-camp-because-pearl-abyss-are-cowards Crimson Desert. It's basically an everything game at this point, so it's not too suprising that the latest update developers Pearl Abyss have put out takes the Red Pudding further down the road of being a Nintendogs competitor. The number of pets you can tame as you wander around Pywel has been growing gradually since launch and you can now have up to 100 of them. That seems dangerously impractical, but hey, video game.

Title: Over the Hill might slap a chill sheen over SnowRunner’s rugged off-roading, but it’ll still drown your jeep in a second if you let it Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 13:00:00 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/over-the-hill-might-slap-a-chill-sheen-over-snowrunners-rugged-off-roading-but-itll-still-drown-your-jeep-in-a-second-if-you-let-it I really should learn to take this stretch of trail a bit more carefully. The one that runs precariously alongside the edge of a lake, dipping and getting muddier right at the point when it’s easiest to gently stumble into the water if you’re not paying enough attention. The one which seems the only passable route around a mountain to the final cabin I’ve yet to visit in this autumnal stretch of Canadian backwoods. I really should be more careful, I lament as my Land Rover sits uselessly slumped on its side under the waves, its engine having drowned a good five minutes ago. Read more
