Arknights: Endfield, a new game from the creators of the popular mobile game Arknights, is a spin-off that takes a different approach to gameplay. Unlike the original, which focused on tower defense, Endfield is an open-world action RPG with combat, exploration, and base-building. The game generated a lot of hype before its January 22nd release, with over 35 million pre-registrations. However, since its launch, players are encountering a surprising problem that’s causing financial issues for many.

The game Highguard was the final surprise announcement at The Game Awards 2025, and remarkably, details hadn’t leaked beforehand. Created by the team behind Titanfall and Apex Legends, the trailer suggests it’s an online first-person shooter where players choose from various heroes or classes, each with unique skills. The gameplay appears to focus on defending your base while attacking the enemy’s, using weapons like the Shieldbreaker to break through defenses and win. Though the announcement didn’t excite everyone, the developers haven’t responded to fan questions or concerns.

Demon Slayer fans were hoping for news about the next movie at Jump Festa 2026, but were left disappointed. Now, all eyes are on Anime Japan 2026, which begins on March 28th and will include a Demon Slayer stage event. Fans are eagerly anticipating what announcements might be made.

Both Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza have received several updates since they launched in June and July.

I’m referring to how the recent changes and cost-cutting efforts – intended to save the publisher an extra 200 million euros by March 2028 – will affect people, potentially leading to thousands of developers losing their jobs.

So, in the main game, you’ve got six different weapon types. But the Woolhaven DLC adds a seventh – the Flail, which is pretty cool. And it doesn’t stop there! Woolhaven also introduces Legendary Weapons. Honestly though, getting all of those Legendary Weapons in the Woolhaven DLC takes some serious work. It’s a fun challenge, but be prepared to put in the time!

In 2024, Moth Atlas unveiled Tombwater, a new game that quickly gained attention for its unique blend of challenging gameplay and Western setting. It takes inspiration from the difficult combat of Dark Souls and the atmosphere of Red Dead Redemption, but stands out with its own distinctive 2D art style. Tombwater isn’t simply trying to be an indie Dark Souls clone; it’s forging its own path.

Together, they’ll journey to defeat the Beast of Reincarnation and save the world from a devastating plague.

This cancellation is one of six games Ubisoft has scrapped this year, and it’s part of a larger trend of cancelled projects at the company over the past few years.
