We’ve seen a few big name releases this year – including Nioh 3, High on Life 2, and Dragon Quest VII Reimagined – but nothing so far that has reached the same level of anticipation as Resident Evil Requiem. Capcom’s horror series has gone from strength to strength since the disappointment that was Resident Evil 6, …
Rewinding to last week, Rayman: 30th Anniversary Edition – which brings together five versions of the 1995 original – and the Mega Cat Studios developed 2D action adventure God of War Sons of Sparta launched during Sony’s State of Play Event. Both seem to be going down well with fans, although Rayman more so – and …
We’ve never fully understood why lots of new releases launch close to Valentine’s Day. Potential gifts? Something for couples to play together? A pastime for singletons? Or perhaps it’s simply six weeks until the end of the financial year. It’s a real mystery. This week, we can get High On Life once again in Squanch …
Next week is rammed packed with new releases. In the meantime, this week gives us three big releases originating from Japan, a couple of pixel art RPGs, and a new entry in the Carmageddon franchise – now with roguelike elements. Dragon Quest VII Reimagined has been feverishly anticipated since its reveal due to not being …
The first Code Vein, released in 2019 on PS4 and Xbox One, wasn’t too well received critically, yet allegedly went on to shift over 3m copies. So, if you’re wondering why Bandai Namco commissioned a sequel, there’s your answer. With six years and a console generation separating the two, it’s hoped this post-apocalyptic adventure sequel …
Sony loses an exclusive this week, with Square-Enix’s acclaimed Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade making the jump to Xbox Series and Switch 2 for a pretty reasonable £40. Owners of the PS5 original aren’t being left out, as launch day (22nd Jan) will add the new easier ‘Streamlined Progression’ option to all versions via an …
The gaming industry is back up to full speed, with this week offering a bountiful amount of new releases. If you’re into horror games and simulators, you’re particularly well catered for.

Considering we’re barely a week into January, a surprising number of new releases are lined up for your perusal. tinyBuild’s cosy rooftop settlement builder I Am Future is about to arrive on all three console formats, currently boasting ‘mostly positive’ reviews on Steam. Set in a flooded city, it involves fishing, farming, tinkering and more. …
The pickings are slimmer than the remains of a Boxing Day buffet this week, which is to be expected – the gaming industry always enters a lull between Christmas and NYE. Even the Switch eShop is looking quiet, with only around five new releases due at the time of writing: the side-scrolling and puzzle packed …
Who releases new hardware just two days before Christmas? Atari and Plaion, that’s who. Talk about cutting it fine – it must have been a real last-minute rush to get production underway and units shipped. Retailing for £99.99, the Intellivision Sprint has 45 built-in games, including the console’s first official release of Boulder Dash, while …
Things are starting to quieten down as Christmas approaches, with just a few new releases of note out this week, including a handful of belated conversions for the Xbox, along with what appears to be the last retail releases of 2025.

The Terminator is finally back on consoles this week. Terminator 2D: NO FATE comes from the creators of Xeno Crisis and Final Vendetta, intended to be the high quality tie-in we never received back in the ‘90s. Multiple endings and unique scenarios feature, along with tidy pixel art. Fans of physical media can choose between …

Not only can the first advent calendar door be opened, but new Marvel and Metroid games are due, along with an anticipated Square-Enix RPG and significant updates to Destiny 2, Red Dead Redemption, and Two Point Museum. MARVEL Cosmic Invasion is, in fact, out today – Monday. Available …
It’s the calm before next week’s new release storm. As alluded to a few weeks ago, November is quieter than usual, and this week is evidence of that. Xbox Wire seems to believe Terminator 2D: No Fate is due this week, but they’re just behind the times – it has had a revised mid-December release …
Nintendo has spent the last few months pointing out the difference between Mario Kart World and Kirby Air Riders, clearing up any potential confusion as to why two character-driven racers are launching on a system barely six months old. The main reason appears to be that Kirby Air Riders is more combat oriented, with a …
