Xbox Series X Users Set to Miss Out on the First Big Game of 2026

Gamers will have a relatively quiet January, with only one mildly interesting release, Code Vein II. While the first Code Vein sold well, its success was boosted by being a launch title for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. The first major game of the year will be Nioh 3, launching on February 6th. Developed by Team Ninja and published by Koei Tecmo, it continues the story of the Nioh series which began in 2017 and continued with Nioh 2 in 2020. Nioh 3 will be exclusive to the PlayStation 5, following the pattern of its predecessors, and is not expected to be released on Xbox consoles.
