In contrast to recent remastered games, “Once Upon a Katamari” is an entirely new game, as demonstrated in its unveiling trailer.

Epictellers Entertainment CEO and co-founder Ricard Pillosu announced in a press release that they’re excited to introduce ‘Starfinder: Afterlight‘ – a project developed in collaboration with Paizo. This is the start of an exciting journey we hope to share with Starfinder fans worldwide. We can hardly wait to reveal more details about the group of misfits traversing the Pact Worlds, filled with peril and excitement.

Tomb Raider: Special Edition made its debut on August 1, 2024, for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Steam (PC) platforms.

The Mortal Kombat Trilogy, initially released in 1996 as an upgraded version of Mortal Kombat 3 and featuring characters and stages from both Mortal Kombat and Mortal Kombat II, is now confirmed to be playable in the collection. This weekend, at EVO 2025, attendees will have their first chance to try out this collection version at Atari’s dedicated booth on the show floor.

It’s possible that Bloober Team’s upcoming game, Cronos: The New Dawn, might release for the PS5 as early as September 5th, 2025. This speculation arises from an achievement list for the Xbox Series X|S version of the game that has surfaced online. Based on information from True Achievements, these achievements have been recorded with a launch date in early September.

In a departure from the norm, the game Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles, developed by CyberConnect2, broke free from the trend by skillfully combining top-tier cinematic scenes with intense gameplay, showcasing their signature style.

During the presentation, they shared plans to fund the third-person shooter titled EXILEDGE and the character action game called Daba: Land of Water Scar.

To make a fair comparison, the company has given sales figures for both hardware and software from its earlier home and portable consoles. For instance, the Wii U managed to sell approximately 13.56 million units in total, while software sales reached 103.60 million units. On the other hand, their previous handheld device, the Nintendo 3DS, sold a much higher number of 75.94 million units and had software sales amounting to 392.28 million units.

In an interview, Zampella stated that EA does not have plans at the moment to release Battlefield 6 on the Nintendo Switch 2. The reason being, the main platforms for the game – PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S – are where the primary audience for the Battlefield series resides. However, he expressed his personal fondness for the Nintendo Switch.

To give you a better understanding, the game Ready or Not has sold over nine million copies on PC by this past April. This number grew after it launched on Steam in December 2021. Approximately one fifth of its total sales on PC came from consoles within a much shorter timeframe, bringing the grand total to approximately 11 million units sold. It’s possible that positive word of mouth contributed significantly to the success of the console versions, as strong pre-orders suggested even before launch.
