March is on. As we head into the third month of 2026, there’s plenty to be looking forward to once you’ve dragged yourselves away from the shambling hordes of Raccoon City and the two other Resident Evils that dropped on Switch 2 last week. There’s a new Pokémon spin-off, for starters, followed by the return…
I love a good moan about Fortnite: about Epic Games vaulting my beloved shockwave grenades, about the sorry state of SMGs, and about a baffling update adding off-brand weapons. So I should give credit where credit’s due. Through careful buffs and bringing back some older weapons, Epic Games has curated the best loot pool in…

Conceived in response to Renegade 2‘s cancellation, Renegade X aimed to do…

Before we send out this week’s competitors, however, let’s recap what went down last time. Marking another significant Nintendo anniversary as Zelda turned…
“There’s kind of a part of me that lives on forever”. As you might recall, the All Elite Wrestling star and Street Fighter fan Kenny Omega helped out with Street Fighter 6‘s Year 3 DLC announcement, but it didn’t actually end there. Ahead of the return of the Street Fighter III: New Generation rep Alex…
“It’s Meat Boy like never before”. If you’ve played any of the Super Meat Boy games previously, you might be interested to hear a brand-new 3D game is arriving in 2026. In an update this week, developer Sluggerfly and the game’s publisher Headup have now confirmed a Switch 2 version. While Super Meat Boy 3D…
I was having a conversation a few days ago with a fan that loves my work in Five Nights at Freddy’s- kid is 18. We started talking games and I find out he’s never played Castlevania or Streets of Rage. I was shocked. So- this piece, which I know is written in a far different…
