A royal mess? The recent Xbox showcase contained not one, but two trailers for the Persona franchise. We already knew about Persona 4 Revival, but the new glimpse showcased some proper gameplay for the first time along with confirmation that it will launch on 18th February 2027. Meanwhile, the much-rumoured (and leaked) Persona 6 was…
Now that the Summer Game Fest weekend is over and the buffering video’s caught up to the audio feed at last, we can look back over the festival of trailers and announcements and say, hey, what about that one thing we were expecting to hear about (or in some cases—cough, Destiny 3, cough—are just trying…
Category: XBOX Games Showcase June 8, 2026 Magicians: The Devil’s Deal Blends First-Person Gameplay with Stage Magic Deception Ed OrmanDirector, Uppercut Games Ladies and gentlemen; boys and girls! Magicians: The Devil’s Deal is something we’ve kept hidden up our sleeve for a long time, so it was a real honor to finally reveal it as…
Fight and flight. Reading the description for Kabuto Park, I imagined it would be like Animal Crossing’s Bug-Off. But this quick, cosy beetle-collecting game from French developer Doot Tiny Games presents a concept that’s closer to another Nintendo series: Pokémon. The story is pretty light. Your character, Hana, visits the eponymous park for a month…
Don’t be a Basic Bat. LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight has gone down especially well with fans, but it’s interesting to see how the developers have factored so many cool Easter Eggs into the game.

There are too many of them, and I’ve been around too long to become a victim of hype. And every summer, the hype starts bubbling away anyway,…
The Wolf Among Us 2 has been in the oven for a while. Either seven years—if you trace its start back to its announcement in 2019—or 12, if you go by the cliffhanger ending of The Wolf Among Us 1’s final episode, which released in 2014. Fans have been hanging on the telephone for news…
I have a very short history with MOBAs—apart from being dragged into one too many League of Legends games, I’ve tried to keep my exposure to a minimum. But that all changed when Valve semi-released Deadlock into alpha. It’s been almost two years since I started playing, and almost 100 hours later, and despite being…
Stacked showcases. The big weekend of Summer Game Fest 2026 is behind us, and it sure was a stacked one. While showcases and streams were gradually trickling out over the last week, this weekend was when most of the biggies came out to play, many of which came loaded with their fair share of Switch…
‘The Telwynium’ is the side project of ‘The Drifter’ developer Dave Lloyd. Dave Lloyd’s incredible love letter to EGA graphics, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Robert Jordan’s novels — The Telwynium — is coming to Steam, the developer announced over the past weekend. Originally conceived during Adventure Jam 2021, The Telwynium was inspired by Lloyd’s memories of…
