Retro Classics, which started in May, is a new Xbox service created with Antstream Arcade. It lets players enjoy a wide variety of classic, older games originally made by Activision and Blizzard. As of November 2025, the service includes 95 games available through Xbox Game Pass, featuring titles like Caesar (originally on Amiga), Chopper Command (Atari 2600), and MechWarrior 2 (PlayStation).
Here’s a look at some of the most anticipated upcoming games. Some are continuations of popular series, while others are inspired by classic titles. Plus, let’s speculate on what might be revealed at the next Nintendo Direct, based on what we’ve seen before. Let’s dive in!

Freshly Baked Games, the developer of Queen’s Domain, previously released a well-received game called The New Flesh.

It’s impressive that this new studio is already trying out different types of games and establishing a distinct look so early on. Only time will tell if Queen’s Domain will become as popular with players as The New Flesh did.
