SEGA has tried for years to make a successful kart racing game featuring Sonic the Hedgehog, and their latest, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, is one of their best yet. It’s even managed to compete with the incredibly popular Mario Kart World.
After you beat the game, you can unlock a special mode where you’ll put your troops to the test against increasingly difficult waves of bosses. Each stage will throw more and stronger bosses at you. Don’t worry though – you can always continue to improve and upgrade your Patapon to prepare them for the challenge.
Okay, so the big showdown between Guile and Bison is definitely the main event, but when it starts, there’s this awesome parallel fight happening! You’ve got Ryu really struggling to keep Vega and Sagat at bay, but thankfully Ken shows up just when he needs help. It’s a great team-up moment!
Looking ahead to 2026 is crucial. Electronic Arts and the team behind Battlefield have stated they don’t want the next Battlefield game to be its best right away. Instead, 2026 is planned as a year for improving the game, adding content, and getting the community more involved. The goal is to let the game fully develop and reach its potential, rather than quickly moving on to the next installment. This is a significant change of pace, as many franchises tend to rush out new games, often leaving previous titles unfinished and lacking polish.
In the last film of the Skywalker Saga, Emperor Palpatine unexpectedly returns. He’s been secretly building a massive fleet called the Final Order on the planet Exegol and reveals to Kylo Ren that he was the one controlling Supreme Leader Snoke. He then tries to draw Rey to him after she discovers they are related – she’s essentially his granddaughter. This is especially surprising because Palpatine was seemingly defeated in Return of the Jedi when Darth Vader threw him into a reactor shaft. Despite this, Lucasfilm has been working to explain how his return is possible.
Generative AI tools have become increasingly common in video games this year, but players have consistently voiced concerns and criticism about their use in the development process, with each instance drawing similar disapproval.
Bloober Team announced that their game, Cronos: The New Dawn, was designed to be challenging. However, they listened to player feedback and understand many want to experience the story at their own speed. They are currently developing a new, easier difficulty level, planned for release in early 2026.
One example is Scavenger Ordeal, which removes level-end rewards but still lets enemies drop items. While details are limited for other Ordeals, players can create and share their own custom challenges.
The game’s new mode, revealed in a somewhat over-the-top trailer, aims to make the survival horror experience more accessible, especially for players primarily interested in the story. While details are still forthcoming, the developers listened to feedback and are offering a less challenging way to play.
Alright, everyone saw the Keighley Awards, but just because Geoff has a fancy presentation and celebrity guests doesn’t make him more significant than Push Square, obviously.
