Looking back, it is safe to say that a lot happened in gaming in 2025. Good things. Bad things. Good videogames. Bad videogames. Nevertheless, 2026 is right around the corner, and it is time, again, for you to tell us what you are looking forward to play next year!

Grand Theft Auto VI

Don't delay again, ok?

Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly

I'm a coward who seldom plays horror games. But being a return of an old classic, Fatal Frame 2 seems too good to miss.

Tales of Remaster

I have a good feeling that we will finally get a pre-PS3 era Tales of game in 2026. I don't have a particular preference, anything is welcome!
There has to be a ton of 2026 games that I don't know yet. So, what are yours?
 
I'm not expecting any big game in 2026, maybe if a new HL releases, besides that what game I'm expecting are:

  • Big Hops
  • Subversive Memories
  • Nivalis
  • TOEM 2
  • Bloodstained The Scarlet Engagement
  • Warhammer Survivors

The writer of Hotel Dusk is on this, so I’m going to give it a try. Little disappointed they’ve sandpapered the Hitler references, especially since it became clear the game wasn’t glorifying him or Naziism at all. But I don’t think it will remove anything from the game and everyone is going to know who the dictator is.



I have been putting off starting Yakuza 3 as part of my Like A Dragon series playthrough, but now a Kiwami version has been announced I’m going to jump in feet first when it releases in a couple of months.



Give me Punished Leon roundhouse kicking zombies and other monsters, or give me death. I was pretty lukewarm on this title until horror gaming’s favourite himbo was announced as the second playable character.



The demo of this pleasantly surprised me. I was a bit down when I found out Pragmata was a heavy-feeling shooter, but the dashing and hacking mechanics give the game a pace that I find appealing. Excited to try this one in April.



The delay to mid-year is disappointing, but I trust IOI to deliver a 007 immersive sim.



To me, this is obviously Danganronpa 4 disguised as 2x2. Expecting some great mind fuck moments from this game (with the new scenario taking place post-DR3 and the original taking place where it’s supposed to), effectively giving you two games in one.



I’m suspending my disbelief that this game will release in 2026 and being incredibly hopeful.



The Expanse, both the book series and the TV series, means a lot to me. So I have a ton of time for a video game story of this series.



Control is an amazing action game and blew the doors off Remedy’s shared universe. So of course I’m excited for the sequel!



Puzzles in space is an itch I need scratching every now and then, and this game will do that.



I’m not sure I’ll like this, but I want to support Sukeban for giving me my all time favourite cyberpunk bartending simulator.



I am down for some murder mystery games, especially ones as visually striking as ShelfLife.



This game will make me learn the Gen Z stare.



The Beach Episode game was actually not a spin off, but the latest game in the series. I expect this game to close things off and put the series to rest. And I will cry.



I’ve been craving a cozy game. Is this it?



Suda51’s latest game looks absolutely insane. Sometimes his games are janky in a way I can’t wrap my head around, but I think I “get” this one.
