Eiichiro Oda often brings back characters from the past and gives them more significant parts in the story. We can expect to see several familiar faces – including villains – reappear in the final arc. Some villains have already returned with expanded roles, and even more are coming.
As a huge Final Fantasy 14 fan, I’m so excited for Patch 7.5, ‘Trail to the Heavens’! It’s the last big update for the Dawntrail expansion, and it’s going to roll out in stages from April to September 2026. From what I’ve heard, it’ll kick things off with a new story arc that’ll lead right into the next expansion. We’re getting a new dungeon and trial on April 28th, plus the final part of the Vana’diel raid series. And get this – they’re making some awesome improvements to housing and dyes too! It all sounds incredible and I can’t wait to jump in.

It’s tempting to guess about future games, but this list focuses on titles with confirmed 2027 release dates. Many of these are exciting revivals of beloved franchises that haven’t seen a new installment in years – even decades, like Mega Man: Dual Override and Hunter: The Reckoning – Deathwish. Let’s explore what makes these games so noteworthy.
Throughout the Dragon Ball series, characters like Future Trunks, Vegito, and Gohan have demonstrated impressive swordsmanship. While swords aren’t as powerful as energy attacks, transformations, or even basic fighting, the best sword users in Dragon Ball still play a significant role.
Sandstorm teams focus on maintaining the Sandstorm weather effect and using Pokémon that are either unaffected by it or actually get stronger in it. The steady damage from the Sandstorm quickly wears down opponents, breaking protective items like Focus Sashes, making them use recovery moves, and turning potentially survivable hits into knockouts. These teams generally aim for a balanced, mid-game strategy – they can withstand early attacks, but become a serious threat once they’ve set up their sweepers.
Capcom’s latest game has a lot to live up to after the success of Resident Evil 9. It’s launching in just a few days, and many players are still trying to understand how it plays. Now that the first reviews are in, we’re taking a close look at what critics are saying about this sci-fi … Read more
Many villains aren’t inherently evil; they’re often created by the flaws and shortcomings of the hero system itself. The way heroes operate inadvertently pushes people towards villainy, meaning they often end up fighting enemies they unknowingly helped create – a rather ironic situation considering they claim to be the forces of good.
I’ve noticed something cool throughout all the Borderlands games – they always include a companion of some kind! Even in the new Borderlands Mobile (though it’s only around for a limited time right now). I remember Mordecai and his bird, Bloodwing, in the first game, and the Mechromancer in Borderlands 2 was all about summoning minions. Then FL4K in Borderlands 3 took it to the next level with three different pets you could control. Now, in Borderlands 4, Vex is a character that combines Siren powers and minion control. And the currently available class in Borderlands Mobile, The Summoner, keeps that tradition going. Though, let’s be real, as someone who’s used these companions, there’s a big difference between a pet and a minion!
Following a strong launch in late 2025, Embark Studios began 2026 by sharing its plans for ARC Raiders. The first big update, Headwinds, came out in late January and introduced a new, sometimes debated, 1v3 matchmaking mode, plus changes to the Buried City map. In February, the Shrouded Sky update added even more to the game, including a new Hurricane map condition, a new area on the Dam Battlegrounds, and new ARC enemies. Most recently, a few weeks ago, the Flashpoint update brought another challenging map condition, a new ARC enemy, and improvements to the Scrappy features.
