Pragmata, the new IP from Capcom, has managed to sell 1 million copies worldwide in two days of sales, the publisher has announced. This Milestone was stated via a sales announcement released by the company, highlighting the game’s status as a brand-new IP, something that can be traditionally harder to sell, even for popular studios like Capcom. Capcom stated in their announcement: A completely new IP, Pragmata, was developed primarily by a team of younger Capcom developers, who created an innovative gameplay experience by fusing action gameplay with puzzle elements set within a distinctive world ruled over by artificial intelligence.…

Bandai Namco has announced Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3, the next mainline entry in their popular action RPG fighting franchise, for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series. The announcement for the title came alongside Dragon Ball Games Battle Hour 2026, an event held in Los Angeles this past Sunday, a tournament focusing on the Dragon Ball titles and announcements. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76jijN84BRk The announcement came as a bit of a shock at the event, where Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 was in rotation. Xenoverse 2 was released back in 2016, making it a decade since a new title has dropped in the game, though…

While rumors have been following the project for several years, we finally got the briefest of confirmations that Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, a remake of the fourth mainline title in the Assassin’s Creed series, is indeed in development. This came in the form of a piece of concept art, so even to this point, the project has more speculation attached to it than known variables, with today appearing that one more can be added to the pile. According to Insider Gaming, the long-awaited remake will release on July 9, though obviously, there is no Ubisoft confirmation of this. Even…

Developer 4A Games has debuted the next title in the Metro series of video games, entitled Metro 2039. This comes shortly after Microsoft confirmed it would be showcasing the game as part of an Xbox First Look that was posted to YouTube. The title is available to wishlist and will be available as part of Xbox Play Anywhere. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GLi240fXzA The first look opens up with a 5-minute or so cinematic trailer that doesn’t give us much in the way of what the gameplay will be like. What we do know, however, is that players will not be taking control of…

A Nintendo Switch 2 version of Bethesda’s open-world space adventure Starfield has been spotted online thanks to a leak by the Taiwan ratings board. As spotted by Universonintendo, the listing shows that this version of the title has been approved for release this week, though there is no mention in the leak as to a suggested release date. Starfield was released on PlayStation 5 on April 7, 2026, around three years after it was first released on Xbox Series and PC. This also followed extensive rumors over the last year that the title was poised to release on the console,…

Dosa Divas should appeal to players of a certain type of RPG fan. You know the ones. The game has a turn-based battle system that largely draws from two schools of thought that are effectively blended. While I am tempted to point out that at its core, Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 shared similar influences, I would say that Octopath Traveller actually feels like its most prevalent inspiration for this game about Dosa’s and Diva’s. While activating battles occasionally feels easy to avoid if you’re not feeling it, random encounters are obvious along your path, but don’t feel forced or narrative…

The announcement made last month that PlayStation 5 would receive a recieve a price rise has seen the console get a sales spike ahead of the new pricing kicking into effect. Mat Piscatella, the senior director at Circana, went on social media to state that in the U.S., the weekly unit and dollar sales of the PS5 in 2026 reached a high during the week of April 4, 2026. The price rise for the console took effect on April 2. Sony raised the price of the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, and PlayStation Portal at that time, pointing to “continued…

There has been some suggestion today that Marvel’s Spider-Man 3, the next entry in the Spider-Man video game series developed by Insomniac Games, might be in development at the studio. This comes after the face model for Peter Parker in the games, Ben Jordan, posted a picture of himself on social media before promptly deleting it. The image in question that Jordan posted was on Instagram and showed him in full rigging with motion capture gear on a stage. It also featured the message “IYKYK” with a spider emoji next to it, in case the connection wasn’t clear. Obviously, regardless…

There is a core memory most of us have from our childhood. The coyote paints a tunnel on the side of a mountain, hoping the roadrunner is stopped once and for all. Instead, however, the roadrunner goes through, and the coyote, confused, tries to give chase, only to smash his face on the side of said mountain. The graphic violence made palatable by aesthetic charm. It helps that you know that with the next camera wipe, everything that just occurred will be forgotten for the cavalcade of brutality to continue, in front of our 10-year-old eyes. Mouse: P.I. For Hire…
