Mark Your Calendar – The Last Week of February ‘26 is Super Busy for Video Games

The last week of February 2026 is shaping up to be a huge period for new video game releases. With major franchises, updated versions of classic games, games coming to new consoles, and releases planned around important gaming milestones, it’s a very crowded time. For gamers, it signals the end of the quiet period after the holidays and the start of a constant stream of new games throughout the rest of the year.
