Horror has a new name. Resident Evil Requiem arrived in February 2026, and it's been haunting players ever since — a bold new chapter that strips the franchise back to its roots while pushing its visuals and storytelling to new heights.

The game takes you through a tightly crafted nightmare, blending the survival horror tension of the classic titles with the cinematic flair of the modern entries. Resources are scarce, enemies are relentless, and every corner feels like a threat waiting to materialize. 🕯️

Available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam, and Nintendo Switch 2, Requiem has been praised for its atmosphere and pacing. It's the kind of game you play with the lights off and immediately regret — but can't stop playing.

Have you played Resident Evil Requiem yet — and did it deliver the scares you were hoping for?

Code Vein II is the anime soulslike sequel that fans of the original have been waiting for — and it landed on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S in January 2026 with a bang.

You're back in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by the Lost — monstrous, bloodthirsty creatures that were once human. As a Revenant, you're powerful but cursed, relying on blood to survive. The combat is fast, stylish, and deeply satisfying, with a Companion system that brings an AI partner into every battle. 🩸

What really shines here is the Blood Code system — essentially your class, with hundreds of combinations to experiment with. The world is bigger, darker, and more intricate than the first game.

If you played the original Code Vein, have you jumped into the sequel yet — and what's your favourite build so far?

Where Winds Meet is the kind of open-world RPG that sneaks up on you. Set in ancient China, this free-to-play gem from NetEase is absolutely stunning — sweeping landscapes, flowing robes, and combat that actually feels weighty and satisfying.

You start as a wandering outsider with a mysterious past, gradually uncovering your identity through epic quests and intense battles. The world feels alive — NPCs go about their days, seasons shift, and there's always something new hiding around the next hill. 🌸

What's impressive is just how generous the game is. The story pulls you in hard, and the content keeps coming — especially for a free title. Available on mobile, PC, PS5, and Xbox, so you can hop in wherever.

Fields of Mistria is the kind of cozy game that sneaks up on you.

At first glance it looks like another farming sim — and yes, you're planting crops and befriending townsfolk — but the world of Mistria has this hand-drawn charm that makes it feel genuinely alive. Every character has depth, every season brings something new to discover. 🌸

The pixel art is gorgeous, with animations so smooth they feel lovingly crafted. The farming loop is addictive without being overwhelming. You set your own pace, tell your own story.

It's on PC and if you love Stardew Valley or Story of Seasons, this one belongs on your wishlist. It's in Early Access and already feels more polished than many full releases.

What's your favourite cozy game when you just want to switch off from everything?

Palworld is hitting version 1.0 this July — and it's still the game that made everyone simultaneously fall in love with cute creatures and question their own moral compass.

The premise sounds wholesome enough: explore an open world, catch Pals, build a base, and survive. But then you're setting up assembly lines staffed by your little companions, and somewhere along the way the game becomes something far more addictive than you expected. That strange tension is part of the charm.

Available on PC and Xbox, the 1.0 release brings the Deep North, new Pals, and a much more complete world to get lost in. 🌿

Are you more of a base-builder in Palworld, or do you spend most of your time exploring and hunting for rare Pals?

Arknights: Endfield is everything fans of the original Arknights dared to hope for — but bigger, bolder, and fully rendered in stunning 3D.

Set on the planet Talos-II, you lead the Endfield Industries team across a fractured world reclaiming territory and battling the ever-creeping Catastrophes. The strategy is deep, the combat is real-time and satisfying, and the worldbuilding is extraordinary. 🌌

It launched in early 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5, and mobile — making it easy to pick up wherever you are. The gacha is present but the game genuinely respects your time in a way that surprises you.

Pokémon Champions just dropped on iOS and Android on June 17, and the competitive Pokémon scene will never be the same. 🎮

Destiny: Rising just gave mobile gamers something they've been waiting for — a proper Destiny experience in the palm of your hand.

This is the first mobile game in the Destiny franchise, and it doesn't cut corners. You're diving into first-person gunplay, building your Guardian, and exploring a future Earth packed with lore, missions, and satisfying loot loops — all on iOS and Android. 🔫

What really stands out is how well the Destiny universe translates to mobile. The tight gunplay feel, the iconic weapon archetypes, the social elements — it's all here, built ground-up for touchscreens without feeling like a compromise.

Are you already a Guardian on mobile, or are you waiting to see how it shapes up?

Mina the Hollower is the kind of indie game that reminds you why pixel art never truly goes out of style.

From Yacht Club Games — the team behind Shovel Knight — this one follows Mina, a daring Hollower sent to a cursed island to rescue a trapped prince. You'll whip enemies, burrow underground to dodge danger, and unravel dark mysteries across a beautifully crafted world that feels like a gothic fairy tale come to life. 🦇

The gameplay is tight and responsive, with boss fights that demand you really pay attention. But it never feels punishing — there's a wonderful flow to combat once you get into the groove. The soundtrack is infectious too, the kind that lingers long after you put the controller down.

Available on PC and consoles, it's a love letter to classic action-adventure games wrapped in a brand-new story. 🎮

Do you have a favourite Yacht Club Games title, or is Mina the Hollower your first time with their work?

Nobody warned me how Balatro would completely rewire the way I think about card games.

At first glance, it looks like poker. But the moment you start layering jokers, unlocking multipliers, and discovering how certain combinations break the game wide open — you realise this is something else entirely. It's a deckbuilder wrapped in the skin of a card game, and the result is almost hypnotic.

Each run carries this beautiful tension: do you play it safe with a solid hand, or chase the wild combo that could either destroy you or send your score soaring into the millions?

Available on PC, consoles, and mobile — yes, mobile — and it's equally brilliant on all of them. 🃏

What's the most satisfying combo you've ever pulled off in a card or deckbuilder game?

Death Stranding 2: On The Beach is one of those games that's almost impossible to describe without making it sound weird — but in the most beautiful way possible.

You're back as Sam, carrying cargo across desolate, stunning landscapes while the world feels constantly on the edge of something profound. Kojima's vision here is even grander than the first game — the environments are breathtaking, the story goes places you won't see coming, and somehow it still feels deeply human. 🌊

Available on PC and PS5, it's a slow burn that rewards patience. Not every game asks you to just walk and feel — and yet here it works brilliantly.

What's a game that made you feel something unexpected — beyond just the gameplay?

DREDGE is one of those games you pick up on a quiet afternoon thinking you'll just try it for an hour — and then it's midnight.

On the surface, it's a fishing game. You captain a small wooden boat, cast your line into foggy waters, and sell your catch at the nearest dock. But something feels off from the very beginning. The locals speak in riddles, the waters hide things that shouldn't exist, and the longer you stay out after dark... the more the sea seems to stare back. 🎣

It's an indie gem from Black Salt Games that blends cozy resource management with genuine, slow-building dread — and it does it beautifully. Available on PC, consoles, and mobile, it's proof that a small team with a brilliant concept can leave a lasting mark.

Have you ever played a game that started off calm and slowly crept right under your skin?

Honkai: Star Rail is the kind of game that sneaks up on you — you download it thinking you'll give it an hour, and suddenly it's your entire evening.

A turn-based RPG from HoYoverse, it puts you aboard the Astral Express, a train that travels through star systems encountering civilisations on the edge of collapse. The story is surprisingly deep, the characters are wildly memorable, and the combat rewards strategy in the most satisfying ways. 🚂

Available on PC and mobile, Version 4.3 "The Lethe Below the Living" just dropped, bringing fresh story arcs and fan-favourite characters. It's free to play, though the gacha system will definitely test your patience — and your wallet.

Whether you're a longtime Trailblazer or just hopped on the Express, there's always another world to explore.

Which character in Honkai: Star Rail do you find the most fun to play, and why?

There's something uniquely thrilling about diving into an alien ocean with no map and no guarantees. Subnautica 2 picks up where the legendary original left off — and then takes you somewhere even stranger.

You're dropped onto a brand-new alien world, completely submerged, with mysterious biomes to discover and terrifying leviathans lurking in the deep. The atmosphere is unmatched — part wonder, part dread, entirely addictive. And now you can bring up to three friends along in co-op. 🌊

Whether you're scanning bioluminescent creatures you've never seen before or desperately building your base before something enormous notices you — there's always a reason to keep diving deeper.

Available on PC via Steam Early Access — have you taken the plunge into Subnautica 2 yet, or are you waiting for the full release?

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 arrived quietly in April 2025 and left the entire gaming world speechless. This French-made turn-based RPG weaves together art-nouveau visuals with real-time parry and dodge mechanics that make every single battle feel alive.

The story follows a group of painters sent on one final expedition — before the Paintress erases their age from existence forever. It's melancholic, breathtaking, and emotionally punchy in ways very few RPGs dare to be. 🎨

Available on PC and Xbox Game Pass, it's a rare gem that reminds you why you fell in love with the RPG genre in the first place. Sandfall Interactive's debut is nothing short of extraordinary.

Which character hit you the hardest emotionally — and did the ending leave you in pieces?

Path of Exile 2 doesn't hold your hand. It drops you into a dark, punishing world and expects you to figure things out.

This is more than a sequel — it's a complete reimagining. New dodge mechanics, overhauled skill gem systems, and a campaign that's actually compelling. The world feels heavy with history: ruined empires, forgotten gods, and monsters that genuinely mean business. ⚔️

The real magic is in the build-crafting. You could spend hours theorycrafting the perfect character, or just throw something together and watch it collapse in act two. Both experiences are oddly satisfying.

Free to play on PC, with console versions in the works.

Are you the kind of player who plans every skill point — or do you just wing it and see what survives?

Mistfall Hunter is the kind of game that grabs you by the collar and doesn't let go. Built around the thrill of the hunt, it's a co-op action RPG where you and your crew track massive creatures through fog-drenched landscapes that feel alive and genuinely dangerous.

Each hunt is its own puzzle — reading monster behaviour, preparing the right gear, then committing to the chaos. The combat is weighty and satisfying, with a loop that makes you want to say "just one more hunt" at 2am. 🌫️

Launching July 29 on PC and Xbox, it's already turning heads with its open-world beta. The creature design is wild, and the environments shift in ways that keep every run feeling fresh and unpredictable.

Do you prefer solo hunts where you master every detail yourself, or do you love the chaos of taking down something massive with a crew?
