With so many excellent games having been released so far in 2026, it's not surprising that some may have forgotten publisher Koei Tecmo and developer Team NINJA released the excellent Nioh 3 this year on PC and PlayStation 5. Although the new mechanics made the main character so powerful it invalidates the strength of the vast majority of enemies, requiring additional free content to up the game's challenge level, the game's open-area approach worked great, creating the most compelling experience of the entire franchise. The decision to go bigger on open-area design and combat gameplay seems to be paying off […]

Nioh, Dynasty Warriors, Wo Long, and Dead or Alive makers and publishers Koei Tecmo have another project in the works alongside the games we're already aware of, including Wo Long 2: Wings of Ember and Attack on Titan 3. Spotted by Automaton, a listing for a new, original IP currently under the codename FUJI appeared on the list of projects supported by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) via its IP360 program. Koei Tecmo isn't the only recognizable name on this list of projects supported by the IP360 initiative. Machine translation of the official website shows plenty of […]

Taking a bit of a break from their musou-styled games, Koei Tecmo and Omega Force released Attack on Titan back in 2016, an adaptation of the popular manga/anime series which saw players take on massive titans through the use of fun and fast-paced ODM gear – giving you spider-man-esque movement abilities. After releasing a sequel a few years later, the series went silent. Fortunately, with the Attack on Titan anime now complete, Omega Force have returned with their “ultimate” AoT experience, officially announcing Attack on Titan 3.

Officially unveiled during the Summer Game Fest showcase, Attack on Titan 3 is described as “the ultimate culmination of the Attack on Titan game series” letting fans experience “the story from beginning to end” in video game form.

For the uninitiated, AoT: Wings of Freedom covered the earlier portions of the anime’s story while having players take on the role of various main/side characters. AoT 2 meanwhile retold the story once again from the beginning, but from the perspective of a custom player-made character while going further into Season 3’s events.

By far the best part of this series however came with its gameplay, offering a bit of a power fantasy as players zipped through different regions using the aforementioned ODM gear. In this regard, Attack on Titan 3 looks to be taking things to the next level, promising that “The ODM action has been further refined, delivering the most exhilarating and stylish combat the series has ever seen.”

Attack on Titan 3 has clearly been in development for quite some time, with the team confirming that this 3rd and seemingly final entry will arrive in under a month’s time on the 1st of July – coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Steam and Nintendo Switch 2.

The survival-horror genre has been in a great spot in the past few years. With Resident Evil returning to its former glory with the seventh entry in the series and every game that has followed it, culminating with Resident Evil Requiem, the Silent Hill series returning with a remake of the second entry in the series and the first brand new game in years, and a wealth of solid indie titles, fans of the genre have had plenty of scary experiences to immerse themselves into. While it doesn't enjoy the same level of popularity as the CAPCOM and Konami series, […]

This morning, KOEI TECMO and TEAM NINJA announced that Nioh 3 has already become a million-seller and is, to date, the fastest-selling game in the action RPG series. We previously had a glimpse of the game's early success in its concurrent player peak on Steam, which far surpassed its predecessors'. Another side is the very strong critical reception, which is being celebrated with a dedicated accolades trailer that prominently features our own review score (9.8/10).
