It’s hard to believe the Final Fantasy VII Remake first came out on PlayStation 4 so long ago! Its release coincided with a difficult period globally, which felt fitting considering the game’s themes of a planet in crisis. Now that a significant amount of time has passed, let’s take a look at where you can play it now and when those versions were released.
The game’s title was accidentally revealed in January 2026 through a PEGI rating, and now fans know they’ll be able to play the final chapter of Max and Chloe’s story in just over two months.
Battlefield Studios recently announced that Season 2 for Battlefield 6 will be released on February 17th, a delay from the original launch date of January 20th. The studio says they need more time to improve the update based on player feedback. While this is a setback for some, players will still receive new content on January 20th in the form of extended Season 1 challenges, a new Bonus Path, and a continuation of the current Battle Pass.
Maintaining this level of quality throughout a game series is incredibly difficult. It means a development team needs to honestly assess its work and be willing to improve even popular features. This dedication results in a final game that isn’t just an ending, but the strongest realization of the developers’ initial vision.

Now, Sony’s promising to keep that same energy going into January 2026 with another big batch of diverse games.
Cult of the Lamb first came out in 2022 and has been regularly updated with new cosmetic items and free content. However, the upcoming Woolhaven expansion will be its most substantial update yet.

The latest games added to Xbox Game Pass for January 2026 – Wave 1 – are now complete with the arrival of MIO: Memories in Orbit, a well-received Metroidvania, and Resident Evil Village, a popular survival-horror game from Capcom that comes before the new Resident Evil Requiem. With all the Wave 1 games now available, attention turns to what Xbox Game Pass will offer next.
The third season of Jujutsu Kaisen was a massive hit with anime fans as soon as it premiered. The series is popular for its well-developed characters, intricate plot, and stunning animation – all hallmarks of modern anime at its best.
Steam is offering two free games: Crown of Champions: Legends of the Arena and Battle Simulator: Counter Stickman.
