Beijing-based developer S-Game has released a new trailer for Phantom Blade Zero, revealing that the game launches next September on PlayStation 5 and PC. More specifically, the Wuxia kung fu punk action game launches on September 9, 2026. 

S-Game revealed Phantom Blade Zero back in 2023, and since then, has continued to tease a release date, announcing that the team would reveal the release date in 2025. With less than a month in the year to go, the developer has made good on the promise with an explosive, action-packed trailer for Phantom Blade Zero. 

Check out the new Phantom Blade Zero gameplay trailer below: 

I traveled to China earlier this year to go hands-on with Phantom Blade Zero and interview the game's director, Soul Frame. After more than four hours with the game, I walked away thoroughly impressed. You can read my extensive thoughts on Phantom Blade Zero's gameplay here.

It's not officially a Star Wars: Episode I – Racer sequel (which featured podracing exclusively), but the newly announced Star Wars Galactic Racer might as well be. The game is developed by Fuse Games, whose members have history working on games like Need for Speed and Burnout, and the trailer showed different types of new and familiar Star Wars vehicles (like speeder bikes and more) racing against backdrops like AT-AT graveyards while a narrator yells, "The galaxy needs racing!"

The trailer also takes a moment to highlight an appearance from Sebulba (or maybe just an alien that is the same species as Sebulba). The game is coming some time next year for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC

 

Capcom is bringing the Blue Bomber back. Mega Man is back in action with Mega Man: Dual Override, set to arrive sometime in 2027.

Shown at tonight's Game Awards 2025, we got a very brief glimpse of gameplay for Mega Man's new adventure. With an orchestral tease of Dr. Wily's Theme, the new Mega Man takes a classic approach to the Blue Bomber, with a more stylized look.

What "Dual Override" means is yet to be seen, but the actual gameplay looks like classic Mega Man. Run across the field, shoot and slide, and deal with the many colorful and dangerous robots in your way.

We'll doubtless learn more between now and 2027, but seeing a gameplay slice right now certainly feels like a sign of confidence from the crew at Capcom.

Mega Man: Dual Override is aiming for 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 4, Switch 1, and PC.

During a certain period of gaming history, Ace Combat could reliably be expected to appear as a new game on a roughly yearly basis. But as development processes have lengthened, so too has the wait for a new installment in the arcade-style combat flights of the long-running series. That looks like it will change next year, with the reveal of Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve.

The new, mostly cinematic trailer suggests that the series is adding an increased focus on storytelling and character in this new installment, but it’s clear that the game will also still feature high-speed military jets fighting above the clouds.

It seems we’ll be waiting a while before we get additional details, but we know that Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve is set to lift off in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed a bill Thursday that will require advertisers to identify if an ad includes AI-generated people. Hochul's announcement said the bill, S.8420-A/A.8887-B, was the first of its kind in the US, describing it as a "common sense" law that would bring increased transparency and protect consumers. A separate bill also […]
