Honestly, it seems like you’re more likely to stumble across the blueprint than the Snap Hook itself – it’s just that rare!

After the Nintendo Switch 2 launches successfully in 2025, Nintendo is expected to build on that initial excitement. The year saw six brand-new first-party games released for the system, alongside updated content for existing Switch titles. Strong support from independent developers and surprisingly good ports of major games like Cyberpunk 2077 also contributed to the console’s success.
Games like Escape from Tarkov usually reset players’ progress with periodic wipes, starting everyone back at level 1. ARC Raiders takes a different approach with “Expeditions” – an optional way to reset your account that you work towards over several months. Players complete a series of tasks at their own speed, and those who finish the Expedition before it’s available get extra rewards like more storage space, skill points, and a unique cosmetic item.
So, getting Final Fantasy 7 made was a wild ride, apparently! It took about two years to develop, and a lot changed during that time. Hironobu Sakaguchi, the guy who started the whole Final Fantasy thing, actually finished the first draft of the story way back in the mid-90s. But getting that script into the game we all know and love? It was full of ideas they ended up cutting and completely rethinking. A lot of stuff hit the cutting room floor, it sounds like!
I actually find those kinds of games more fun to discuss. It’s really cool when you share experiences with friends, then discover they tackled the game in a totally different way. Plus, games like that offer a lot of replay value because there are so many different ways to play them.

Most people agreed that the free games offered daily by the Epic Games Store in December weren’t particularly exciting, with only a few titles like Viewfinder, The Callisto Protocol, and Disco Elysium really standing out among the 14 games given away. However, it’s a new year, and the Epic Games Store has a chance to win players back. Many believe it’s already started to do so, beginning the year with strong freebies like Total War: Three Kingdoms and Wildgate, with Bloons TD 6 currently available. The free games for January 15th are also impressive, not necessarily because of the games themselves, but because they’re seen as a preview of a highly anticipated release coming in February 2026.
