Square Enix's spine-tingling Paranormasight is getting a follow-up. Paranormasight: The Mermaid's Curse will arrive in just two weeks, on February 19, 2026. The first Paranormasight was released in 2023, to a generally positive reception. It told the tale of a spiritual battle royale, where people tried to bring their loved ones back from the dead by emerging as the sole victor. Now, it's getting a follow-up with The Mermaid's Curse. This new story heads to Ise-Shima, Japan and follows Yuza, a pearl diver who encounters another version of himself in the water. Several other strangers gather on the island as well, and the investigation into the supernatural starts to unfo…

Developer Shapefarm and publisher Kepler Interactive have released a new trailer for Orbitals, the classic anime-inspired co-op puzzle game, and it reveals the game will launch exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 sometime this summer. As for an exact release date, we'll have to wait a bit longer to find out. The new Orbitals trailer, which aired during today's Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase, should tide you over, though, as it highlights the game's amazing art alongside new features like playing drums and piano with a friend, arcade cabinet minigames, and more. Inspired by classic 1990s anime like Neon Genesis Evangelion and Cowboy Bebop, this new trailer offers more det…

The two founders of East Asian-focused publisher Neon Doctrine, who left the firm after it was absorbed by Raw Fury last year, have announced a new "developer services" firm called Goldpact Goblins.

South Korean video game publisher Krafton, Inc. has announced that PUBG: Blindspot, the free-to-play 5v5 tactical shooter developed by PUBG Studios, is now available on Steam via Early Access. The team describes the game as being "designed around fast, high-intensity indoor firefights" that mix close-quarters battles and team-based strategies with a top-down perspective. Krafton, which made headlines last October after touting that it would transform into an "AI-first company," says in a press release that today's Early Access launch marks the beginning of an open development phase, "with the development team actively working alongside players to refine gameplay systems …

ProbablyMonsters, the studio behind last year's Storm Lancers, has revealed Nekome: Nazi Hunter, a third-person action game where – you guessed it – you kill a lot of nazis. The game's release date and playable platforms remain to be announced, but if the idea of getting revenge against nazi soldiers during World War II sounds like a great time, it's a game you might want to keep an eye on. "In Nekome: Nazi Hunter, players step into the role of Vano Nastasu, a young Romani man consumed by grief after the brutal murder of his family by nazi soldiers," a press release reads. "The game follows Vano's transformation from hunter to hunter as he embarks on a violent personal o…

Ahead of today’s Overwatch Spotlight 2026 event, I flew to Blizzard’s headquarters to go hands-on with all of the updates and additional content coming in the first season of Reign of Talon, a year-long story arc that kicks off on February 10. Overwatch 2, which Blizzard is officially renaming to Overwatch alongside the update, finally feels fresh again thanks to the five new heroes launching alongside Season 1. Additionally, the first-person shooter’s new sub-roles help to further distinguish its Tank, Damage, and Support heroes with new passive buffs that better align with their specific playstyle and class identity. The team is getting better and faster at creating her…

The very first Pokémon games launched in Japan on February 27, 1996, meaning the series' 30th Anniversary is this year. Ahead of an anticipated Pokémon Day stream later this month on February 27, The Pokémon Company International has announced that a yearlong campaign to celebrate the 30th Anniversary will begin this weekend with a Super Bowl LX commercial. The company released a quick teaser for the Super Bowl LX commercial on its YouTube channel today, showing an excited Jigglypuff sitting backstage on a couch, presumably waiting to perform the halftime show of her dreams. This commercial will be the "campaign debut" of yearlong details, announcements, and more. "The…

Nintendo has announced that it will host a Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase tomorrow, on Wednesday, February 5. It will air at 6 a.m. PT/9 a.m. ET on YouTube and the official Nintendo website. The company first revealed the news on its Nintendo Today app before announcing it on official social media channels. Nintendo says the Direct will feature "roughly 30 minutes of upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch games," and considering it's a third-party showcase, it's unlikely we'll see any big first-party reveals or updates. There are a lot of third-party games coming to Switch 2 this year like Pokémon Pokopia (March 5), Pragmata (April 24), Monster Hunter Storie…

I’m knee-deep into playing Nioh 3, and though the review embargo has lifted, we still need more time to complete this densely packed threequel. But after playing for a couple of dozen hours, we can confidently say I’m having a fun time slicing apart yokai in this time-hopping adventure. While the game remains a deliciously difficult action game, especially thanks to its new Ninja style, I’m arguably most impressed with its rewarding approach to exploration. One of Nioh 3’s big additions is the Ninja Style Shift, which effectively gives you a shinobi-flavored class that feels like controlling a wholly different character. While its opposite Style, Samurai, offers the more …
