Newly announced games
These titles have been newly announced
«Pictonico!»
Nintendo has announced a new game, but not for the Switch 2. «Pictonico» is a mini-game collection reminiscent of «Wario Ware». The twist is that you play with your own photos - of yourself or your friends. Looks like a typically quirky project that only Nintendo could come up with.
Date: 28 May
Released for: Android and iOS
«Kusan: City of Wolves»
Cool, a new «Hotline Miami». Unfortunately not quite. But there's no denying where the inspiration for «Kusan: City of Wolves» comes from. Here, too, you have a bird's eye view of heated battles in which there is no room for error. Unlike the cult original, you also get to ride a bike and encounter giant combat robots. The soundtrack also promises to keep pace with the fast-paced gameplay.
Date: 30 July
Released for: PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, PC
«Gambit»
The wave of «Balatro» likes shows no sign of abating. After poker and money-shifting machines, chess is now also becoming a deckbuilding roguelike. The rules change every round. There are also various kings with special abilities. Has hit potential.
Date: 3rd quarter 2026
Released for: PC
«Open Waters»
Now that's what I call an unusual scenario: you're in the middle of the ocean on a small motorboat. There is no land and no rescue in sight. Instead, eerie creatures lurk beneath the surface of the water. Every now and then you come across abandoned oil rigs, but they don't really look any safer.
Date: unknown
Released for: PS5, PC
Trailer updates for games already announced

«Paralives»
The next life simulation game to take on «The Sims» is called «Paralives». The trailer for the Early Access launch shows excerpts from various life situations through which you control your Paras. You can see a train journey, various furnishing options, a burning kitchen or a yoga session to relieve all the stress.
Date: 25 May (Early Access)

«World of Tanks: Heat»
If you like tanks, there's no way around «World of Tanks». The free-to-play multiplayer game has been chugging along successfully for years. Now comes «Heat» Hero shooter spin-off. You still sit in tanks, but choose different heroes with special abilities. This makes the game much faster and more action-packed than the original. I already had a lot of fun in the beta.
Date: 26 May
Released for: PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC
«Outward 2»
The survival role-playing game will enter Early Access in July. And because «Outward 2» should also run on weak PCs, so-called potatoes, a talking tuber vegetable with a headset presents the new trailer.

Released for: PC
«Clive Barker's Hellraiser»
The latest trailer for the upcoming game adaptation of the bloody horror series introduces the Genesis configuration. This is an inconspicuous cube that is used for both puzzles and combat. This is where it unfolds its full effect, which should delight splatter fans.

As a child, I wasn't allowed to have any consoles. It was only with the arrival of the family's 486 PC that the magical world of gaming opened up to me. Today, I'm overcompensating accordingly. Only a lack of time and money prevents me from trying out every game there is and decorating my shelf with rare retro consoles.
From the latest iPhone to the return of 80s fashion. The editorial team will help you make sense of it all.
