Genre: Action-Adventure | Release Date: August 27, 2026
With Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, Asobo Studio returns to the dark world of A Plague Tale—this time with a prequel that focuses more on action than previous entries in the series. You play as Sophia, a looter on the run who investigates the origins of the Macula on the mysterious Island of the Minotaur. The story is set fifteen years before the events of A Plague Tale: Requiem and takes you to an ancient world inspired by Greek mythology. Along the way, you’ll have to battle numerous enemies who are after the island’s legendary treasure and uncover a deeply buried curse. The soundtrack is once again by composer Olivier Derivière.

The next installment in Bandai Namco's cult soccer series is here: Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters sends soccer prodigy Tsubasa Ozora and his team through the Asian Youth Tournament all the way to the fiercely contested World Youth Tournament, where they face rival teams with their own unique soccer philosophies. With 22 national teams, over 110 playable characters, and more than 150 elaborately animated special moves, the sequel to Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions offers significantly more content than its predecessor. Another new feature is the revamped goalkeeper system, in which the shooter and the keeper go head-to-head in spectacular super shots.

Genre: Bundle / Stealth-Action | Release Date: August 27, 2026
Konami is bringing two more classics back to current-generation platforms as part of a new bundle: Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 includes Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, which originally came out ages ago for the PS3, as well as Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker in the HD Collection version of the original PSP game. As bonus content, the collection also includes the series’ first handheld title, Metal Gear: Ghost Babel from 2000. Guns of the Patriots and Peace Walker come with a scenario book featuring the complete text, as well as a master book with background information on the story and characters. This makes Metal Gear Solid 4—long considered technically nearly impossible to port—playable outside of the PlayStation 3 for the first time.
