Okay, so I’m going to run down some games that are just plain enjoyable. I’m not just looking at how good the shooting feels, though – I want to see what the whole game offers. Do they give you a massive world to wander around in, or let you play however you want? That’s what I’m checking for. Let’s dive in and see which ones really stand out!
The new anime series, Solo Leveling, might not have the same cultural impact as a show like Naruto, but it truly shines when it comes to action. From beginning to end, the series is packed with thrilling fights that are visually stunning and keep viewers engaged. While these battles may not have the same emotional depth as those in Naruto, they are incredibly spectacular and exciting to watch.
As a huge Borderlands fan, I was so excited for Borderlands 4 to come out in October 2025, and Gearbox had promised it would launch on the Switch 2 at the same time as everything else. But just days before release, they announced the Switch 2 version was delayed indefinitely – they needed more time to polish it up. Then, Take-Two, who own 2K (the Borderlands publisher), explained in February 2026 that they were pausing Switch 2 development to focus on adding content to the game on other consoles and PC. They did say other games would still come to the Switch 2, just not Borderlands 4 right now, which is really disappointing.
The latest expansion for the Pokemon Trading Card Game has generated a lot of excitement for its digital version, Pokemon TCG Live, too. New starter decks have been added, letting players test out strategies featuring popular Pokemon like Mega Lucario ex and Dragapult ex. The Pokemon Company has also been giving away free packs, cards, and codes to fans since the expansion launched. Now, Pokemon TCG Live is marking the halfway point of the ‘Perfect Order’ series with a new code that gives players two free packs and some beautiful, full-art cards.
You can sell Platinum for 380 Silver Coins, making it a good item to trade with characters in the game. It’s also used in recipes to create strong weapons and items. We’ll show you where to find Platinum and the materials needed to craft it.
The best open-world games truly immerse us, letting us either become the character or completely break free and do whatever we want, offering a welcome escape from reality. These games usually feature compelling stories and characters that take at least four hours to fully experience on a first playthrough. While realistic stories are good, sometimes we crave a game that lets us be a real troublemaker. And when those games come along, they’re incredibly hard to put down.
One Piece has fewer than 20 Logia-type Devil Fruits, and that’s largely intentional by the author, Oda. Now that the story is in its final arc, it’s unlikely many more will appear, meaning the odds of seeing new Logia fruits are slim.
The launch of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S was hampered by major supply chain problems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. What should have been an exciting new era for gaming turned into a two-year challenge for both companies and players, as consoles were difficult to find. By 2023, these issues had largely been resolved, but it took years for the consoles to reach their full potential. With talk of the PS6 and the next Xbox already surfacing, many gamers believe it’s too early to introduce a new generation. However, Sony and Microsoft need to act quickly to maximize sales before the current consoles feel old.
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.
