Blaze of Storm is a vertical-scrolling shmup featuring cyber-inspired pixel art, exhilarating fast-scrolling, and a variety of sub-weapons. As a cyberdiver, you'll delve into cyberspace and battle a diverse range of enemies. Each of the five selectable sub-weapons has its own unique characteristics, making it fun to use them appropriately depending on the situation. In addition, when a sub-weapon comes into contact with an enemy, it generates an explosion that deals continuous damage. Making good use of this explosion is key to victory. More than 20 unique bosses appear one after another, providing a varied and condensed gameplay experience.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood was one sour batch of sauerkraut. Marinated in a noxious and ill-fitting live-service-adjacent brine, this troubled spin-off (and the mediocre virtual reality title it launched alongside) left a bad taste that has lingered for almost seven years. Developer MachineGames’ adventures with another famous Nazi-killer and increasingly longer AAA development cycles have meant Youngblood’s aftertaste has stuck around longer than it should have.

This drought is reportedly almost over, though, since reports forecast the streets will once again run red with Nazi blood sometime soon in a new Wolfenstein game, further backing up light teases from the MachineGames team itself. There’s a lot riding on Wolfenstein 3: a game that has to meet the moment in more ways than one--and can’t follow in Youngblood’s footsteps.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood is the fourth entry in MachineGames’ alt-history Wolfenstein series and sets the franchise in the 1980s. But instead of controlling longtime series hero B.J. Blazkowicz in a single-player adventure, Youngblood puts players in the power armor of his twin daughters, Jess and Zofia, and, to its downfall, focuses more on co-op and RPG mechanics.

It's been a tumultuous road for Highguard and its developer Wildlight Entertainment, and a couple of abnormalities online have observers believe the online first-person shooter is not long for this world. Less than a week after layoffs at Wildlight, the official Highguard website went offline, eliciting speculation that it's the end of the road for the game.

The Highguard website currently displays a "Site Unavailable" message and a support email address to Code32, a hosting service specifically for video game websites. The error page also contains links to the game's official X account and an invite to the game's Discord server. As observed by Reddit users, the Discord button erroneously led to an unrelated server for a similarly named "High Guard Gaming Guild" before it was fixed at some point.

While it's possible that the website's downtime is due to a hosting issue, the silence from Wildlight has players concluding that the studio has called it quits on the game after a mixed reception and faltering player numbers.

Obsidian Entertainment and Xbox Game Studios' Avowed has finally launched on PS5 alongside an update that adds New Game+, a photo mode, and more.

Avowed was released as an Xbox Series X|S console exclusive in February 2025, and it seems like it'll be one of the last couple of Xbox Game Studios games to do so. After teasing a PS5 port in January, it finally released today alongside an Anniversary Update for the RPG set in the world of the Pillars of Eternity games.

The Anniversary update is the last one scheduled on Avowed's post-launch roadmap and the largest since launch. For returning players, New Game+ is the most exciting new addition. It allows players to carry over their abilities, attributes, armor, weapons, and enchantments to a new save file with a higher Attribute point cap and tougher enemies.

Last month, Magic: The Gathering players arriving at their local game stores to participate in Lorwyn Eclipsed prerelease events were shocked to find that rares and mythics from the next expansion, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, wound up in their prerelease kits. Wizards of the Coast acknowledged the issue at the time, poked fun at the mishap with a video from new mascots Squen and Cragg, and today the company has announced its make-good: free extra promo cards during an upcoming TMNT event.

Any player who attends a TMNT prerelease event will receive, along with their prerelease kit, an extra Promo Pack chosen at random from one of five in-universe MTG sets: Lorwyn Eclipsed, Edge of Eternities, Tarkir: Dragonstorm, Duskmourn: House of Horror, or Bloomburrow. Promo packs include a rare or mythic rare from the set listed on the package, an alternate-frame card from that set, and a rare or mythic from another set that was Standard legal at the time of the promo pack's printing.

In a new blog post on the official Magic website, communications director Blake Rasmussen laid out the plan, saying, "We figure if we got a bit of Universes Beyond in your Magic Multiverse, we might as well share a bit of the Magic Multiverse with your Universes Beyond."

Lorwyn Eclipsed started Magic: The Gathering's 2026 with a bang, bringing the wonder of Lorwyn and Shadowmoor back to MTG with critical and player acclaim. The cards made an immediate impact on the professional circuit, with champion Christoffer Larsen using Deceit and Requiting Hex to power his Dimir deck to victory.

Now, the attention shifts to 2026's first Universes Beyond expansion, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which introduces the heroes in a half-shell and their various opponents through the years to Wizards of the Coast's long-running card game on March 6. Today, Wizards held its usual Debut Stream for TMNT, showing off more cards, variants, and product details about the upcoming expansion.

While some may grit their teeth at seeing Leonardo and pals on Magic cards--especially after the underwhelming performance of Marvel's Spider-Man last year--today's reveal showed that there are plenty to like about the upcoming set, from cool new card designs to the celebration of TMNT's entire history.

If you've felt that there haven't been enough games that let you use your lightweight footwear as a tool to get payback on your enemies, then you're in luck. ShapeshifterInteractive has announced its inaugural game, Flip-Flop Fury, which lets players unleash the power that's been beneath your feet the entire time.

In the game's reveal trailer, the currently unnamed player character carefully aims his flip-flop to take out a guy whose only apparent crime is illegal public urination. Once he gets smacked in the face, there's no telling where that stream will land.

On the game's Steam page, the developers left the following message:

It's been more than a year since Marvel Rivals, the hero shooter based on the famous comic book brand, was released. In the year since, Marvel Rivals has proved itself as a competitor in the space to genre heavyweights like Overwatch and shown that it's got long legs. Now, NetEase is looking to celebrate its success with an in-person celebration.

NetEase and Marvel Games have set a date for Marvel Rivals Assemble, a live event meant to mark the occasion and look to the future. On March 3, the teams will take over the legendary El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood for a show that will reportedly "deliver exclusive reveals, all-new content, and moments designed to celebrate the Marvel Rivals universe."

Fans who attend the show will be the first to hear about many exciting new developments for Marvel Rivals, including the first glimpse at the game's 2026 roadmap, which will almost assuredly be packed with cameos of upcoming heroes and teases of new locales from the extensive universe(s) of the comics, shows, and movies. Marvel Rivals most recently added Elsa Bloodstone to the roster as part of the game's latest mid-season update.

After clawing its way up the Steam charts, it should come as little surprise that Mewgenics, the feline-focused turn-based tactical roguelike, has crossed the one million sales mark and apparently made a colossal amount of cash.

Mewgenics co-developer Tyler Glaiel confirmed on social media that the title has sold over a million copies on Steam. Additionally, analyst Rhys Elliott of games market data firm Alinea Analytics wrote on X that Mewgenics is estimated to have generated close to a staggering $25 million in gross revenue.

According to Elliot, Mewgenics has the second-highest revenue of any 2026 release on Steam so far, only below Nioh 3, which retails for $70. By comparison, Mewgenics only costs $30, but Elliot speculates that the game's continuing momentum will take it to the top spot on Steam soon.

Following the overwhelming success of its launch, Mewgenics is set to get DLC in the future according to one of its co-creators.

Edmund McMillen shared some brief updates on X regarding the near future of the cat-based roguelite, stating that DLC is planned given the sales success of the title. He also reconfirmed that the game is being developed for consoles but stopped short of detailing which ones, and how long potential ports might take.

A new update for Mewgenics is expected soon with some fixes for minor issues plaguing players, but the thousands enjoying the latest game from the creators of The Binding of Isaac, Super Meat Boy, and The End Is Nigh should be happy to know that the game's exceptional OST is now up for purchase on Steam, too.

At this year's DICE Summit in Las Vegas, members of the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences came together to honor Vince Zampella, the Call of Duty veteran and Battlefield 6 boss who tragically perished in a car accident in December 2025. Shortly after that event, GameSpot spoke with a Battlefield 6 producer Alexia Christofi about carrying on Zampella's legacy and what the future of the game holds.

"[Zampella] was always a risk-taker and he kind of put that into us," said Christofi. "Nothing about his legacy is gonna be lost from us, because now it's about making him proud. He's always kind of given us autonomy to do what we think is best in the game and we were super lucky to have his leadership when we did. And it won't be lost, and we'll carry it forward for sure."

Regarding a new Battlefield boss to take over Zampella's position, Christofi noted that Battlefield GM Byron Beede is "so driven, and I guess him having Vince as his manager, Vince instilled that into him as well. So we have that leadership from him," before adding "People above my pay grade are still trying to figure out what what happens moving forward."

Set in England after a deadly virus broke loose in the early 2000s and transformed people into feral killers, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple was shot back-to-back with 28 Years Later.

The real-world housing market in the US has reached the most unaffordable levels in history, but if you want to buy a home in World of Warcraft, it should be much easier with the game recently adding player housing. To hype that up, Blizzard and the real estate marketplace Zillow have announced a custom "Zillow for Warcraft" website that allows people to browse in-game homes for World of Warcraft.

The website will look familiar to anyone who has browsed Zillow before, but in place of your local city is a map of Azeroth with homes dotted all over the place. Users can click on a home to see more photos and details about a property, like the "Seaside Shrine," which has a grog station and a royal purple reading nook. Users can click "Contact Agent" to send an email to learn more about the property and how to move in.

Of course, the website is plastered with advertisements for World of Warcraft: Midnight, the upcoming expansion that releases on March 2. Player housing came to WoW back in December for people who preordered Midnight.
