The chapters in Final Fantasy 7 Remake aren’t all the same length. Some are shorter and focus on the main story, while others include optional side quests, called ‘Odd Jobs’. How long a chapter takes to complete also depends on how many tough boss battles it has. Here’s a breakdown of all the chapters in Final Fantasy 7 Remake and what you can expect from each one.

I’ve always loved how survival and horror games often go hand-in-hand, even if they aren’t always the same thing. That’s why survival horror feels so special! Games like Resident Evil, Silent Hill, and Dead Space really set the standard, and you can definitely see their influence in newer titles. I was so excited to hear that Binary Haze Interactive was taking inspiration from Dino Crisis! That game, which came out for PlayStation back in 1999, was amazing. It blended action and puzzles perfectly, and Capcom even called it “panic horror” because the dinosaurs felt so smart and unpredictable. Dino Crisis was all about shooting your way out of trouble, but it sounds like Tokyo Scramble is doing something totally different with its dinosaur-avoiding gameplay, and I’m really intrigued to see where they take it.

Rivers are often stunning features in landscapes, particularly when they’re vast and include beautiful sights like waterfalls. If you’re looking for a virtual river adventure, these open-world games offer just that.

I was stoked to see Saber Interactive announce Turok: Origins at The Game Awards! It’s been ages since a proper Turok game – the last one was the reboot back in 2008. We’ve gotten a few remasters and that Turok: Escape from Lost Valley game a few years back, which was pretty different, being an isometric title. Honestly, it’s been way too long since we’ve had a full-on Turok experience, and Turok: Origins is already looking promising!

MENACE, the new game from strategy experts Hooded Horse, is a departure from their previous title, Battle Brothers. Instead of a gritty fantasy setting, MENACE takes place in the harsh environment of space. As I’ve previously shared, I was very impressed with the demo – the combat is excellent, choices feel natural, and the game is visually stunning. Like Battle Brothers, MENACE focuses on challenging but rewarding gameplay, so fans of the original will likely enjoy this new experience.

Gaming trends aren’t limited to specific types of games; they also affect settings, how games are played, and visual styles. A growing trend is the use of a visual style reminiscent of the original PlayStation (PS1), and Forgotten Blood is a great example. Several indie horror games are using this low-poly, slightly unsettling look to evoke a nostalgic feeling. It’s also a way for developers with limited resources to create a unique atmosphere. While it might seem odd to think of the PS1 as ‘retro,’ the console is over thirty years old, and graphics have improved dramatically since then. Forgotten Blood could appeal to players who fondly remember 90s video games, and its soulslike gameplay might attract a modern audience on Steam.

Those who enjoy Jujutsu Kaisen understand that strength isn’t everything in the complex world of the series. Battles rely on a mix of special agreements called Binding Vows, unique cursed energy, and the incredibly powerful Domain Expansion. Most sorcerers aim for a technique that guarantees a hit, but the author, Gege Akutami, introduced Kinji Hakari, a character who breaks the established rules. Hakari stands out from the typical powerful fighters and ancient curses as a high-stakes gambler who treats battles like a game, proving that luck can be the most dangerous weapon when wielded by someone skilled.
