PlayStation Plus hasn’t had the best start to the year. While the Extra and Premium tiers received some good new games this month, subscribers were largely disappointed with the free games offered in January 2026, especially considering how strong the December 2025 selection was. Last December’s lineup included popular titles like LEGO Horizon Adventures, Killing Floor 3, The Outlast Trials, and Neon White. January’s games – Need for Speed Unbound, Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, and Core Keeper – are all decent, but don’t quite measure up to the five games offered the previous month.

Wood is a classic building material in survival games, and Hytale offers a wide variety of wood types to choose from. You can build your home with anything from oak to birch, letting you customize your creations.

Some characters received significant screen time but haven’t yet justified their presence in the story. While they still have opportunities to develop in future storylines, they currently feel like underutilized additions to the Elbaf arc, failing to make a lasting impression.

I’m super hyped for ! From what I've heard, it's going to be way bigger and let me customize my character even more with this new Formae system. Bandai Namco just announced when it's dropping everywhere, and you can find all the details in the guide if you want to know exactly when you can jump in.

You can get these spellbooks by defeating Skeleton Praetorians – the big, tough undead enemies found in Zone 4. We’ve noticed they don’t appear very often across the whole zone, but they tend to show up more frequently in the ashy areas, like the one pictured above.

Both of those games feature interesting worlds, but what truly makes them special isn’t just the settings themselves. These open-world games stand out because they offer so many different ways to explore, often overshadowing even their combat. The combat isn’t necessarily weak, it’s just that players are more likely to remember the joy of discovering and wandering through the game world long after they’ve finished the story.

Ubisoft has a history of continuing to support its Assassin’s Creed games long after they first came out. They’ve added Steam achievements to several older Assassin’s Creed titles, even though those features weren’t available when the games originally launched. While it would have been ideal to include these features from the beginning, it’s great that Ubisoft continues to update the games, even though it would be simpler to leave them as they are. It looks like even more improvements are coming to the older games in the series soon.

Okay, so I’ve figured out Pogranichnik really shines in a team built around physical damage. It’s all about this status effect he puts on enemies called ‘Endfield’s Breach,’ which makes them take way more damage from physical attacks. Here’s how it works: first, you need to apply ‘Vulnerable’ with a physical skill. Then, you use Pogranichnik’s Battle Skill, and it eats those Vulnerable stacks to apply Breach. The more Vulnerable stacks he uses, the harder he hits, and the more SP he gets back – it’s a really nice cycle!

The fourth episode of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 premiered on January 22, 2025, and sparked a divided reaction among viewers. While it received a high score of 9.8 on IMDb, suggesting many fans enjoyed it, the episode was not well-received by most viewers in Japan.

In 2025, LEGO launched new product lines based on popular franchises like One Piece and Bluey. As of late January 2026, LEGO offers products across 45 different themes. They started 2026 with a Pokemon line, and more new themes are expected to be released soon.
