And yes, the teammates can be customized, too. Player choice will shape both the narrative and gameplay, as you increase bonds between squadmates to unlock new abilities and powerful synergies.

!Game Informer News(https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/bodydefault/public/2026/06/05/0faa3563/guildwars302.jpg.webp) Guild Wars 2 came out nearly 14 years ago, and after a decade and a half of support and expansions, the team is pushing out a proper sequel.

Check out the reveal trailer below: "Explore Tyria like never before in Guild Wars 3, an action-adventure MMORPG and modern evolution of the genre," the trailer's description reads. "Play solo or form a band of adventurers, forging impactful and enduring bonds with fellow players, a formative cast of memorable NPCs, and the nature spirits that call Orr home." While the teaser doesn't show us any concrete gameplay, it does show off a stunning, vibrant art style, which we hope will translate over to the full release.

Guild Wars 3 Is Real, And It’s Coming To PS5 And PC

After a domain for Guild Wars 3 was updated, fans began to believe an announcement for the anticipated MMO sequel was imminent. The game was officially announced as part of Summer Game Fest 2026(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/summer-game-fest-live-2026-all-the-biggest-announcements-and-games/). A beta is set to launch in Fall 2027. Guild Wars 3 will release on both PC and PlayStation 5, making it the first game in the series to be playable on console. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITPzxITngqA Technically, the Guild Wars 3 domain was purchased way back in 2004, before the original game was released (thanks GamesRadar(https://www.gamesradar.com/games/mmo/guild-wars-3-summer-game-fest-rumors-start-flying-thanks-to-a-sudden-web-domain-update-we-waited-10-000-years/)). However, eagle-eyed fans spotted that domain got an update on June 5, 2026, just one day before Summer Game Fest started. The trailer specifies that the footage is in-engine, though no specific UI or gameplay elements are shown. In it, an armor-clad character rides a massive, multi-colored, and horned mount. The same character bounds up a steep stone wall with magical boots and witnesses a flying axolotl-like creature. Some other examples of player-characters are briefly seen, including a bear wearing plate armor, a little goblinesque creature (probably an Asura), and a humanoid woman. Both the original game and its sequel have had a long run. Since its initial release in 2012, Guild Wars 2 has gotten continual updates, including an expansion titled Visions of Eternity in October 2025. Gear Wars Reforged, a remaster of the first MMO, launched in December 2025.

Ex-CoD Dev’s New Game Stars The Boys Actor Claudia Doumit, And It’s Another Attempt To Make Crossfire Work In The West

As part of Summer Game Fest(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/summer-game-fest-live-2026-all-the-biggest-announcements-and-games/) today, developer That's No Moon--a studio founded by former Call of Duty and Naughty Dog developers--announced its first game, and it's not what anyone expected. The game is called Crossfire, and it's the latest attempt from Korean publisher Smilegate--which funded That's No Moon--to make Crossfire popular in the West. That's No Moon recruited a big name, The Boys and Call of Duty actor Claudia Doumit--to star in the military shooter. The developers at That's No Moon understand that Crossfire is going to be divisive, and they are OK with that(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/thats-no-moon-knows-crossfire-is-going-to-be-divisive-and-its-ok-with-that/). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCqw26hm0ko T Crossfire launched back in 2007, and has been very popular in South Korea. In fact, it was the most popular FPS on the planet for a period of time(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/the-biggest-fps-in-the-world-is-becoming-a-movie/1100-6473693/). A Crossfire game for the West, CrossfireX, was released in 2022, but shut down a year later(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/crossfirex-is-going-offline-for-good-in-may/1100-6511161/). Alan Wake developer Remedy built the game's single-player. The new Crossfire game, which is simply titled Crossfire, is in the works now for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game does not have a release date yet. That's No Moon was founded in part by Taylor Kurosaki, who previously worked on the Call of Duty and the Uncharted franchises.

Gundam Rogue Orbit Is A Third-Person Mech Action Game And It Launches Next Year

!Gundam Rogue Orbit Bandai Namco Entertainment(https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/bodydefault/public/2026/06/05/100b6be8/gundam04.jpg.webp) Bandai Namco has revealed Gundam Rogue Orbit, a third-person mecha action game, and it's launching next year. Revealed during today's Summer Game Fest showcase, Gundam Rogue Orbit lets players build and customize their own mobile suit(s) to attack, shoot, and slash through foes in space and elsewhere. The developer-publisher describes the game as a "high-mobility action game" that blends a fast-paced cinematic story with intense, hard-hitting combat in a brand-new Gundam universe, meaning it seemingly won't be attached to any prior or current Gundam series. As such, Bandai says Gundam Rogue Orbit is "the perfect entry point for new players and a thrilling evolution for longtime fans." Check out the mecha action in the Gundam Rogue Orbit reveal trailer below: Gundam Rogue Orbit is due out on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC sometime in 2027.

TMNT: The Last Ronin Is Developed By Action-Game Royalty

At Summer Games Fest(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/summer-game-fest-live-2026-all-the-biggest-announcements-and-games/), the newly announced Paramount Games Studio has revealed that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin--previously in the works at THQ Nordic's Black Forest Games--is now in development at Platinum Games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRnIOj126E This isn't the first TMNT game from Platinum, though we're hoping that it will be better than the studio's previous attempt. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan was met with largely negative reviews in 2016, in stark contrast to the studio's usually excellent action games. Unlike some of the more family-friendly takes on the TMNT, The Last Ronin takes place in a dark future where the Foot Clan reigns and three out of the four turtles are dead. That leaves the remaining brother to take up the arms of his fallen siblings for one last battle against Shredder's grandson. The Last Ronin was originally published in 2020 and it marked the creative reunion of TMNT creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, who collaborated on the story for the first time in decades. The miniseries was scripted by Eastman and Tom Waltz and illustrated by Esau Escorza, Isaac Escorza, Ben Bishop, and Eastman. It proved to be so popular that additional Last Ronin comics have been published and a novelization was released earlier this month. In 2023, The Last Ronin's video game was announced(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-the-last-ronin-becoming-a-game-inspired-by-god-of-war/1100-6512649/) and described as a God of War-inspired single-player game. The Last Ronin was also in development as a live-action film before Paramount canceled the project(https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-new-live-action-movie-1236431867/) in late 2025.

Stranger Than Heaven Gets Even Stranger With The Addition Of A Very Alive Tupac

A celebrity-filled cast grows even more. Stranger than Heaven, the new game from Sega's RGG Studios, already has a star-studded cast with big names from both the Eastern and Western music and acting scenes. One of the latest cast additions, however, is definitely a head-turner: the likeness of beloved rapper Tupac Shakur. Tupac was a beloved musician before his murder in 1996, and his popularity has only grown since. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVDWsyaf2Y Snoop Dogg, who also plays a major role in the game, commented on Tupac's addition during the Summer Game Fest(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/summer-game-fest-live-2026-all-the-biggest-announcements-and-games/) presentation, saying "The Tupac estate, my son and myself ... we work very closely together, so it just made sense to put him in this game. His likeness, his spirit still lives on." Tupac isn't the only departed cast member taking a role in Stranger than Heaven, as the likeness of beloved Japanese actor Bunta Sugawara (of Battles Without Honor or Humanity fame) is also appearing in-game. In addition, several famous Japanese actors and voice actors were newly announced to be appearing in the game in various roles: Takashi Ukaji, Takaya Kuroda, Kohei Tsuji, and Yasukaze Motomiya. A release date of January 15, 2027 was also confirmed.
