The show does not yet have a release date. In other news, Nintendo revealed the upcoming Gen 10 games Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves, and to celebrate the franchise's 30th anniversary, The Pokémon Company is releasing a miniature Game Boy that's actually a retro jukebox.

Specific games named include Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, and Team Fortress 2.

In today's Daily Fix:Star Wars returns to the big screen in May with The Mandalorian and Grogu, but according to Variety, Lucasfilm is having doubts the movie will be as successful as the mainline series of films. This comes after a teaser that ran during the Super Bowl apparently failed to generate much hype for the movie. However, the company is more confident in next year's Star Wars film, Starfighter, from director Shawn Levy and starring Ryan Gosling. In other news, PlayStation Plus games for March have been confirmed, with PGA Tour 2K25 and Monster Hunter Rise leading the pack. And take a peek at the five immersive worlds of the all-new Universal Epic Universe, and one of its featured attractions – Stardust Racers, all at Universal Orlando Resort.

In today's Daily Fix:Insomniac has finally dropped the release date for the long-awaited Wolverine game. The news come as a welcome surprise for fans who were expecting the game to make an appearance at the latest PlayStation State of Play, but was a no-show. The game will be out September 15, 2026, just a week after another big PlayStation game—Phantom Blade Zero—also drops. In other news, Xbox co-creator Seamus Blackley has some dire predictions for the Xbox brand. Via GamesBeat, Blackley thinks the recent Xbox leadership shuffle means the brand is being 'sunsetted,' as far as being a major player in the video game space. He cites incoming CEO Asha Sharma's lack of a gaming background and her previous role as head of Microsoft's CoreAI product as indicative of Microsoft's new path for Xbox. And finally, take a peek at the five immersive worlds of the all-new Universal Epic Universe, and one of its featured attractions – Stardust Racers, all at Universal Orlando Resort.
In today's Daily Fix:Incoming Xbox CEO Asha Sharma was active on social media following last week's bombshell announcement that she would be replacing Phil Spencer. She listed a few gaming bona fides such as her three favorites being Halo, Valheim, and GoldenEye. When pressed if her accounts were being run by artificial intelligence (she was head of Microsoft's CoreAI before joining Xbox), she responded with 'Beep Boop Beep Boop.' In other news, movie producer Roy Lee confirmed that the BioShock movie is still happening, and it will be the next project for director Francis Lawrence once he's done with the next Hunger Games movie. Interestingly, Lee revealed that publisher Take-Two wants the movie's release to coincide with the next BioShock game.

In today's Daily Fix:In IGN exclusive report, Xbox CEO Phil Spencer has announced his retirement from Xbox after 38 years with parent company Microsoft. Xbox President Sarah Bond is also resigning. Asha Sharma, currently President of Microsoft's CoreAI product, will be the new CEO of Microsoft Gaming. Xbox Game Studios head Matt Booty will be promoted to Chief Content Officer and will work closely with Sharma. In other news, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has confirmed two new Far Cry projects are in development, and has assured Splinter Cell fans the remake is still happening, despite futher layoffs at Splinter Cell dev Ubisoft Toronto. And finally, Nintendo is dropping Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen onto Switch as separate $20 games. This has confused—and angered—some fans who wonder why the titles weren't added to the Game Boy Advance player as part of Nintendo Switch Online.
In today's Daily Fix:First-party PlayStation support studio Bluepoint Games has been shuttered by Sony. The studio most notably developed the remakes of Shadow of the Colossus and Demon's Souls, both of which were well-received. They also assisted in several game collections such as the Metal Gear Solid HD collection, Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, and others. Bluepoint was acquired by Sony in 2021 and assisted in the development of God of War Ragnarök. In other news, Bethesda director Todd Howard teased a return to "classic style" Bethesda in Elder Scrolls 6, and giving examples of exploration done in games like Fallout 3 and 4, Skyrim, and others. And finally, Kratos voice actor Christopher Judge has teased something God of War related for "late summer."
In today's Daily Fix:Mario fans may have spotted a yet-to-be-revealed cameo in the latest Super Mario Galaxy Movie trailer. A character way off to the side of the frame—barely in it, really—in one shot of the trailer looks kinda sorta almost like what Fox McCloud wears in the Star Fox games. While this isn't confirmed, it does make a little sense, considering Mario and friends will be going to space in the Super Mario Galaxy Movie. In other movie news, director Zach Cregger said he's been giving 'carte blanche' on his upcoming Resident Evil movie reboot. Basically it means he can do whatever he wants, and has already teased that we may not see any familiar characters from the games. While the movie will be its own thing, it will adhere to the lore of the games. And finally, the anticipated 2.5D cyberpunk pixel art action game REPLACED has been delayed yet again, this time to address feedback after the game's recent demo on Steam.
In today's Daily Fix:Xbox Game Pass Wave 2 titles have been revealed, and there are some big open-world heavy-hitters. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 all make their way to the service, among other games. In other news, Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile will go offline in just a couple of months—not to be confused with Call of Duty: Mobile, which is still going strong (and also has a battle royale mode). And finally, a toy set from the upcoming Super Mario Galaxy Movie may have spoiled the reveal of a beloved NES character.
A developer who worked on Highguard has discussed the "hate" he received after the free-to-play shooter debuted at December's The Game Awards, saying the game, and by extension its team, "turned into a joke from minute one, largely due to false assumptions about a million-dollar ad placement."
Arc Raiders continues to be an enormous hit for publisher Nexon, with 14 million copies sold and almost a million concurrent players online at one point last month. Daemon has all the details in your Daily Fix!

In today's Daily Fix:Sony's Ghost of Yōtei not only reviewed well when it was released in October of last year, but it sold really well, too. According to Sony's latest financial earnings report, Yōtei actually sold more units during its launch than its predecessor, Ghost of Tsushima, did during that game's same launch period in 2020. This is notable since Tsushima was released at the end of the PS4's life cycle, while Yōtei—a PS5 console exclusive—had a much smaller install base to sell to. In other Sony news, a new Horizon game, Horizon Hunters Gathering, was revealed. It's a live-service co-op action game for PS5 and PC. And finally, Xbox gave us a peek into their software plans for 2026, which includes a currently-unannounced game.
In today's Daily Fix:Grand Theft Auto 6 will be released later this year (or so we've been assured by publisher Take-Two), but no actual launch details have been revealed. Many fans want to know if they'll be able to by a physical version of the game at launch, and Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick is now saying that a digital-only launch is 'not the plan.' While not explicitly saying that disc versions will be available, it does leave the door open for interpretation. In other news, Overwatch 2 had a big Spotlight stream where developer Blizzard outlined changes coming to the hero shooter. Most notably, the game will drop the '2' from the title, and be known simply as 'Overwatch.' A new story-focused era is coming, which will last a year, and several new characters have been announced. And finally, a new Nintendo Direct, this one centered on their third-party partners, will be dropping bright and early at 6am Pacific time tomorrow.
In today's Daily Fix:Nintendo's latest financial results show a mixed bag of results for the Switch 2. Kirby Air Riders, Donkey Kong Bananza, and Mario Kart World are selling in the millions, but notably missing is Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. The game was not listed in either the Switch or Switch 2 million-seller lists, however it's possible that combined sales across Switch platforms could total one million or more. The game had a rocky development history, being delayed several years and changing dev teams. In other sales news, Obsidian's The Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed did not meet sales expectations, and the company has announced they don't have any plans for The Outer Worlds 3 (but will continue exploring the world of Eora, the setting for Avowed and Pillars of Eternity). And finally, February's Game Pass line up has been revealed, with High on Life landing day one on the service.
In today's Daily Fix:Developer AdHoc Studio has released a statement addressing the censorship controversy surrounding the Switch 2 port of Dispatch. AdHoc is taking responsibility for the uproar, saying that their game failed to meet certain Nintendo guidelines, and that it was their responsibility to better convey the message that the Switch 2 port was altered from the PS5 and Steam versions. AdHoc are working with Nintendo to address the issue, but that it could take weeks before changes are made to the game, if any. In other news, Nioh 3 might be making its way to the Switch 2 and Xbox Series consoles, marking the first time the franchise ended up on a non-Sony console. A new trailer for the game specifies that it's a PS5 console exclusive for six months, however no official word on if other ports are coming. And finally, a video game music remix won a Grammy last night over EGOT-holder Cynthia Erivo. Super Mario Praise Break from The 8-Bit Big Band took home the award for Bestr Arrangement, Instrumental and Vocals. Another gaming win came from composer Austin Wintory, who won for the soundtrack to Sword of the Sea.
In today's Daily Fix:Nintendo has responded to the censorship controversy surrounding the Switch port of AdHoc's Dispatch. The Switch version has its nudity and sexual content censored, while the PS5 and Steam versions allow you to toggle the censorship. According to Nintendo, while all games on Nintendo platforms need to meet certain guidelines, they don't dictate to the developers how changes need to be made. In other news, Amazon's God of War series has cast Mandy Patinkin as Odin. Patinkin is probably best known as Inigo Montoya from the 80s classic, The Princess Bride, but has also done acclaimed work on shows such as Homeland, and Criminal Minds. And finally, the very long-in-development Beyond Good & Evil 2 is apparently still chugging along at Ubisoft, despite the company's recent layoffs and restructuring.
