Gamers are the ones who truly benefit, with so many exciting new games coming out offering hours – even over a hundred – of gameplay. Whatever you enjoy, several games slated for release later in 2026 look incredibly promising and could be instant classics, assuming they launch smoothly. Here’s a look at the most anticipated upcoming games for the rest of the year – and some might even be contenders for Game of the Year awards.
In a recent TopMob interview, BenDavid Grabinski, a creative consultant on Scott Pilgrim EX and Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, revealed the surprising origin of the game. He explained it started as a personal project fueled by his love for Scott Pilgrim. The whole thing began when he accidentally consumed something that kept him awake all night, allowing him to finish the original game in a single playthrough – and sparking the idea for the new adaptation.
Recently, Sanji accomplished something incredible: he defeated a Holy Knight, a feat very few have managed. He did this purely through his own strength and skill. During the battle in the Elbaf Arc, Sanji moved so quickly that Killingham, the Holy Knight, couldn’t defend himself. Sanji defeated him with a single, powerful blow, completely destroying him and demonstrating that Holy Knights vary greatly in power.
If you haven’t encountered the Rooks in Marathon, they’re unique shells for solo players. They let you drop into a game already in progress and grab loot from bags that other players have partially emptied. These stealthy characters can quickly enter, collect a good amount of items, and leave, and they can become incredibly powerful with upgrades earned through the skill tree. A skilled Rook can even defeat a full team, risking only their time by joining a game that’s already underway. Because Rooks are usually at a disadvantage, they need to be cunning to survive, which makes them either incredibly popular or intensely frustrating for other players. I wasn’t sure how I felt about them myself… until a particular event turned me into someone who actively hunts Rooks, driven by a desire for payback.
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is a fantastic shonen anime with compelling battles and a well-developed power system – arguably one of the best in the genre. While it’s difficult to find a shonen anime that surpasses it, there are still other great options out there.

To build excitement, Microsoft is now sending out special merchandise to promote the new console.
The most popular Naruto games succeed by either telling compelling stories or delivering exciting gameplay. Some carefully recreate iconic anime scenes, allowing players to experience them authentically, while others prioritize fast-paced, satisfying combat.
Madara Uchiha wasn’t just any member of the Uchiha clan; he was a key founder of the Hidden Leaf Village and pushed the Sharingan’s power to its absolute limit. While most fans only saw his abilities after he was resurrected during the Fourth Ninja War – focusing on his Rinnegan – they didn’t witness his original Mangekyo Sharingan techniques. Let’s explore what those techniques actually were.
Both The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom were available when the Switch 2 launched. These versions of the popular open-world games from the original Switch offered improved performance and a few exclusive features. Since Nintendo hasn’t announced a new Zelda game yet, fans are eager to know what’s coming next, and a recent leak might offer a strong clue.
