The first update of the quarter, called Headwinds for ARC Raiders, will be available on January 26, 2026. Although it doesn’t include a large amount of new content, it does introduce some new gameplay features. This will keep the game interesting for players until the next update, Shrouded Sky, arrives in February.

Since its release, ARC Raiders has been consistently improved with updates that fix technical problems and add new things to do. The November North Line update introduced the Stella Montis map and new enemy ARCs, while the December Cold Snap update added snow to the game’s environments, along with other improvements. Players can look forward to the next major update arriving on January 27th.

In the fantasy world of Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End, you’ll find a diverse range of creatures, including humans, demons, elves, and dwarves. Elves stand out because they live for centuries and have a natural talent for magic. They possess far greater magical power than humans or demons, and learning spells is much easier for them.

Although the trailer was removed quickly, people had already recorded it and shared it online. The biggest news it revealed is a strange new feature coming to Headwinds: players will be matched up in ‘solo’ matches against teams (‘squads’).

First released in Japan in 2009, Tomodachi Collection for the Nintendo DS lets players create and manage the lives of their Mii characters. A sequel, Tomodachi Life, came to the Nintendo 3DS in 2013 and to North America a year later. While the US version received mixed reviews initially (scoring a 74 on OpenCritic with 49% of critics recommending it), Tomodachi Life has gained a dedicated fan base in recent years, largely due to funny, shareable videos of its Miis singing in a unique text-to-speech style.

The “sunk cost fallacy” can make it hard for fans to admit that a long-running story might have pacing or visual consistency issues – problems that newer, shorter series often avoid. While a popular series might sell well, other shows demonstrate stronger storytelling skills. Many excellent Shōnen series have perfected the art of efficient storytelling, delivering impactful narratives in a much shorter time than those that focus on one huge, decades-long plot.

On Monday, reliable Nintendo leaker NateTheHate discussed when fans can anticipate the next major Nintendo Direct presentation in a new video.
