You can currently get Fallout 76 for free on PC if you have an Amazon Prime subscription. This game, released in 2018, has been offered for free several times before, including through PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass – and it’s still available with some Xbox Game Pass plans. While it was previously free for both PC and Xbox users in 2024 via Prime Gaming, this time the offer is exclusive to PC players. Keep in mind you’ll need an active Prime membership to claim it.

According to Ferran Punti, CEO of The Breach Studios, their goal is to build a game that grows and improves with input from its players. They plan to use Kickstarter and Early Access to collaborate closely with dedicated and enthusiastic gamers, carefully considering their feedback to refine the game before its release on consoles. Punti also explained that partnering with Radical Theory felt like a good fit because of their experience, knowledge, and commitment to open communication and support for game developers.

This project, rumored to be in development since 2020 and once known as “Marathon,” is now reportedly being worked on at Eidos Montreal, despite recent staff reductions. Sources describe it as a game similar to Shadow of the Tomb Raider, but featuring Xenomorphs. The game will likely feature three main characters: Aubrey, an engineer skilled with grappling hooks and magnetic boots; Ryuzo, who may be an enemy; and Ripley 8, with fans hoping Sigourney Weaver will return to voice the iconic character.

Okay, so there’s a sale going on right now, but it’s ending soon! It wraps up at the end of December 15th, so you really need to check it out before it’s over – time is ticking!

The standout game this week is definitely Tomba! 2, and there isn’t much else particularly noteworthy happening.

I was really struck by the image on the cover – a kid frozen in a T-pose – and it immediately made me think about what it’s like to live with a physical disability. It’s a story about feeling different and trying to find your place when you don’t quite ‘fit’ the mold.

Okay, so they just dropped a tweet saying “Emergence begins” and “2026” – which is super cryptic, but awesome! Hopefully, we’ll get more details at the Nintendo Direct next month. This new game, E-Day, is a prequel to the Gears series, and it’s the first main game we’ve gotten since Gears 5 back in 2019. It’s set right when the Locust are first attacking Sera. And get this – we get to play as Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago again, with the original actors! It’s going to cover the first few days of the battle in the city of Kalona, and I’m already hyped!

Given the studio is newly formed, some people, including Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier, have predicted the game won’t be released until 2030, or even later. However, studio head Hudson responded on Twitter, reassuring fans that the game will come out sooner than that, jokingly adding that he’s not getting any younger.

The recent presentation for Kirby’s Air Ride confirmed there won’t be any downloadable content. In a separate post, Sora Sakurai also announced that the development team will be dissolving soon. There’s a small window for a final update or adjustment, but after that, the game will be finished. This will allow Sakurai to begin work on his next project, which is expected to be a new Super Smash Bros. game.
