The multiplayer Assassin’s Creed game, Invictus, was originally announced in 2022 as one of several new games in development. While previous Assassin’s Creed titles, starting with Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood in 2010, have featured multiplayer modes, Invictus generated a lot of excitement because it promised a completely new game designed from the start around multiplayer, rather than adding it as an extra feature to a single-player game.

It’s hard to say exactly when a game becomes a ‘cult classic,’ so we’re focusing on titles released in the last two years – 2024 and 2025. While those years saw many great games, the ones listed here haven’t fully gained the recognition they deserve. They’re not quite cult classics yet, but they’re definitely gaining a following and could become them soon.

It hasn’t been long since the last Borderlands 4 update in mid-January, which was a small patch focused on boosting the power of Harlowe and Amon and improving the chances of getting rare loot from bosses. This latest update is much bigger, bringing many changes and improvements, including a new Photo Mode.

Pokemon Gen 10 leaks indicate that the games could be called Pokemon Wind and Wave.

Remasters and remakes are common in gaming, not just with Final Fantasy. Sometimes, the decisions publishers make about these updated versions are strange. While not necessarily bad, some remasters and remakes are simply puzzling – for every high-quality release like Final Fantasy 7 Remake, there’s one that feels a bit off.

In a recent interview with DenNicoFamiGamer, the director of the game, Koshi Nakanishi of Capcom, explained that Leon has become more jaded after years of battling the undead. Nakanishi described Leon as radiating a “ruthless anger.”

I don’t think any game is completely flawless, but there are a few that come pretty darn close. What’s amazing is that even the older ones – some are over 30 years old! – still hold up today. They’re just as fun and exciting now as they were when they first came out. I honestly think these games will always be relevant, no matter how much technology advances.

From the creators of games like Furi, Haven, and Squids Odyssey, comes Cairn, a new survival climbing game. Players must carefully plan their routes and manage resources as they ascend the challenging and beautiful Mount Kami. Cairn launched on PlayStation Store and Steam this Thursday, January 29th, just over a year and a half after it was first revealed at Day of the Devs 2024.

As a huge Harry Potter fan, I always felt the movies, while enjoyable, were a little… rushed. They had to cut so much from the books, and it sometimes really changed why characters did things, or just completely left out important scenes. Things like Hermione’s fight for house-elf rights, Ron dealing with his insecurities, and even understanding the full story behind the Marauder’s Map all felt shortchanged. That’s why I’m so excited about the HBO series – it feels like they finally have the time to fill in those gaps and give us the story we deserved. Here’s a breakdown of what the movies missed and how the new series is getting it right.
