WWE 2K26 fans are discovering just how much of a grind the game’s new battle pass system is after developer Visual Concepts replaced the traditional DLC model with it.WWE 2K – like with all publisher 2K’s yearly sports games, for the most part – is really into asking you to give it more money. For years, it has had its own spin on EA Sports’ Ultimate Team card game – seen in the likes of EA Sports FC and Madden – which focuses on opening virtual booster packs, and on top of that, locks certain wrestlers that can be used…
I’ve been looking forward to a game called Screamer for a little while now. Out at the end of March 2026, it’s part racing game and part anime. It’s shaping up to be the first racing game in a long time that has a coherent and well-integrated story. In my search for something similar to tide me over, I stumbled upon JDM: Japanese Drift Master. It’s a smaller, more contained racer, but it successfully weaves in a story among its focus on Japanese car culture. Purely as an open-world racing game, JDM is a little underwhelming. The map, which is a…
The long-term monetization of a live-service game is always a little contentious, because it’s hard to find ways of delivering value while still ensuring a game’s financial viability. Marathon is no different, and mere days into the full launch, some players aren’t happy about the cosmetics in the FPS or the battle pass.On the note of visual customizations, there are stickers and charms you can get to put on your weapons. Though nice little decorations, they’ve irritated the community because you have to collect duplicates – mostly available through monetary means – in order to put the same ones on…
Oi, you! Yes, you, the sun. There’s no hiding. I saw you creeping up over the hill at 6am and staying there for nearly a whole 12 hours yesterday. Stop looking sheepish, you’re not in trouble. Why, in fact, I think I might spend this weekend outside and enjoy your almost springly warmth. I might play some games, too, but only if it’s near an open window where I can feel the breeze on my face. How about everyone else? JamesHaving been charmed by Resident Evil Requiem’s spin-kicky action segments, I’m revisiting the Resident Evil 4 remake. I was mad…
Humble Bundle turning 15 feels a bit surreal if you’ve been around since the early days of indie bundles and “pay what you want” experiments. To celebrate the milestone, the platform is launching a 15th Anniversary bundle packed with roguelikes and adventure games, including several newer indie titles that haven’t appeared in previous bundles. Even better, many of them are Steam Deck compatible, making this a particularly tempting pickup for anyone who likes playing their games on the go, everywhere.

Mandalorians are known for never removing their helmets in front of others, but for Pedro Pascal, removing his helmet in his upcoming Star Wars film The Mandalorian and Grogu makes “perfect sense.””When we got to that part, all I can say is that it made perfect sense, and it was what I was hoping would be the reason,” Pascal tells Empire about removing his helmet as the Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin. “If I were to pitch something, I would say, ‘The only thing that makes sense is…’ And that’s exactly it. He filled that blank. I said immediately, ‘Jon,…
The game Bandai Namco was teasing earlier this week has been revealed: It’s a new Sword Art Online action RPG called Echoes of Aincrad, billed as an exploration of the darker side of the anime it’s based on. And while what little combat we’ve seen largely involves huge dark fantasy creatures with big weapons and a player character keen on dodge-rolling and parrying, the developers insist this game is “not a Soulslike.”Talking to Japanese publication Denfaminicogamer (translation via Automaton), SAO series producer Yosuke Futami and Echoes of Aincrad head of production Yasuhiro Yahata made a few points of clarification about…

Most of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3, the third and final installment in Square Enix’s remake trilogy, is still shrouded in mystery, but director Naoki Hamaguchi has just revealed a few new key details.With the yet-untitled third entry in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake saga tying up the whole story, and there still being plenty of stuff from the original 1997 game we haven’t seen, fans have rising concerns that some of that missing content has simply been cut. Thankfully, Hamaguchi has confirmed two very unique locations from the OG game are returning in the finale: the grungy Rocket…
Indie developer Mega Crit’s Slay the Spire 2 immediately became the king of Steam upon its early access launch on March 5, and at least 6,000 people are in full support of its reign according to several fiefdoms of Overwhelmingly Positive reviews.It comes down to the fact that roguelike Slay the Spire 2 is simply “Slay the Spire but better,” as one positive review with over 250 upvotes as of writing declares. “Some may say that’s an oxymoron, as how can one concoct something better than Slay the Spire?
