Final Fantasy 7 Revelation Closes the Trilogy in Spring 2027, Skips PS5 Exclusivity

Square Enix announced Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, the trilogy's final chapter launching Spring 2027 simultaneously across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC with no platform exclusivity—a significant departure from the previous games' timed exclusivity deals. The game will introduce new mechanics like skydiving traversal and an expanded customization system called FITS, while confirming Vincent Valentine and Cid Highwind as playable party members for story arcs tied to the original game's ending.

Destiny 2

Warframe's Rebecca Ford Calls Bungie Ending Destiny 2 'Cataclysmic'

Rebecca Ford, creative director of Warframe, publicly criticized Bungie's decision to stop developing Destiny 2 as "unthinkable" and "cataclysmic," arguing that live-service games can remain creatively viable for over a decade as Warframe has demonstrated. Ford's on-the-record criticism carries particular weight because Digital Extremes has successfully maintained a thriving live-service game for years, giving her credible standing to challenge what she views as a business-driven abandonment of a player community.

Star Wars Zero Company

Star Wars Zero Company Lands August 27 With XCOM-Style Permadeath and a Playable Anakin

EA and Bit Reactor have announced Star Wars Zero Company, a tactical turn-based strategy game launching August 27, 2026 for $49.99-$59.99, featuring permadeath mechanics and squad customization across 150+ Clone Wars planets. The game is being developed by Firaxis veterans and Respawn Entertainment, marking the franchise's first major strategy release since 2006's Empire at War.

Final Fantasy VII Part 3

Hamaguchi Says FF7 Part 3 Reveal Prep Is 'Underway' as SGF 2026 Rumors Build

Director Naoki Hamaguchi has confirmed that Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is in development with an announcement being prepared, and the team is designing it for multiple platforms simultaneously rather than launching as a PlayStation exclusive. While leakers and magazine teasers point to Summer Game Fest 2026 as a potential reveal venue, nothing about the game's title, release window, or official platforms has been confirmed by Square Enix.

Marvel's Wolverine

Marvel's Wolverine Hits PS5 on September 15, 2026 with a Rage Meter and No Open World

Insomniac Games revealed Marvel's Wolverine for PS5 with a September 15, 2026 release date, deliberately departing from its open-world Spider-Man formula to create a linear, mature-rated action game centered on a Rage meter that ties combat to Logan's healing factor. The game features a custom X-Men roster pulled from deep comic lore, comprehensive accessibility options at launch, and represents a significant creative shift for the studio after two decades of sandbox superhero games.

Mina the Hollower

Mina the Hollower Tops Metacritic's 2026 List With 92, Beating Forza and Resident Evil

Yacht Club Games' Mina the Hollower has become 2026's highest-rated game on Metacritic with a score of 92, surpassing major AAA titles like Forza Horizon 6 and Resident Evil Requiem in its first major release since Shovel Knight in 2014. The Game Boy-styled indie action RPG's critical success sets a high bar for remaining 2026 releases and positions it as a strong contender for year-end awards discussions.

Grand Theft Auto VI

Take-Two CEO Locks In GTA 6 for November 19, 2026 — Marketing Starts in July

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick confirmed GTA 6's November 19, 2026 launch date during an earnings call and revealed that the game's marketing campaign won't begin until after the World Cup ends on June 25, 2026, giving Rockstar only five months to drive pre-orders before release. The company is projecting $8.2 billion in revenue largely from this single launch, and the game's price point—still unannounced—could set the standard for AAA pricing across the industry for the entire console generation.

God of War

God of War Laufey Stars Kratos' Wife Faye, Picks Up After Her Funeral

Sony announced God of War Laufey, a new game starring Kratos' supposedly-dead wife Faye, which takes place immediately after her funeral in the 2018 original and introduces a new multi-pantheon realm called the Everywhen. The game features unconventional companions including a sentient ribbon and a cosmic cube, faster combat mechanics than previous entries, and represents a smaller experimental side project rather than the next mainline God of War game.

007 First Light Review Roundup: A Hitman-Uncharted Hybrid That Works

IO Interactive's James Bond origin game 007 First Light has received generally positive reviews, with critics praising its narrative, Patrick Gibson's portrayal of young Bond, and gameplay that successfully blends Hitman-style stealth with Uncharted-inspired action across globe-trotting sandbox missions. The game's significance lies in breaking the curse of licensed games by being evaluated as a competent stealth-action title on its own merits rather than against the historically low bar set by previous Bond games, though technical issues like crashes and frame rate drops remain a concern.

IMC Buys Playstack for $169M, Inherits Balatro Royalties

Playstack, the indie publisher behind the massively successful game Balatro, has been acquired by Integrated Media Company (which owns GameSpot, Giant Bomb, and Metacritic) for approximately $169 million, raising questions about potential conflicts of interest between the publisher and the gaming media outlets now under the same corporate umbrella. The acquisition values Playstack highly based on its strong track record of publishing hits, with Balatro alone selling over 5 million copies and winning Best Independent Game at the 2024 Game Awards.

Rockstar Workers Form UK Union After 31 Staff Fired Over Discord Leaks

Rockstar Games fired 31 UK employees on October 30, 2025, claiming they shared confidential information in a Discord channel, but the newly formed Rockstar Game Workers Union says the dismissals were retaliation for organizing around labor conditions like crunch hours and pay. The dispute has escalated to an employment tribunal and drawn attention from UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who noted that some affected workers on visa sponsorship were forced to leave the country, highlighting the broader implications of the company's actions.
