Gaming giant Acclaim has announced Super Basketball Classics, a retro arcade basketball title inspired by the classic 8-bit and 16-bit hoops games. It will also feature the Harlem Globetrotters as a part of their 100-year anniversary (wow, time flies) and is coming to PC and consoles, though no specific platforms or release date were announced.

Super Basketball Classics features retro-style arcade basketball with some modern upgrades such as smoother controls, improved animations, and modern competitive balancing, as well as the Globetrotters signature moves and trick shots. It will include three modes – Exhibition, Season, and Tournament – as well as couch co-op and competitive play.

Check out the new teaser trailer below:

There's some really big games coming soon and they're going to look their best, thanks to RTX Path Tracing from NVIDIA. Tides of Annihilation, Control: Resonant, Pragmata, and 007 First Light will be exhibiting those sweet, sweet lighting effects on GeForce RTX cards.

There's also advances in the foliage with the help of Mega Geometry. The clustering of areas helps the card work on large scenes at a faster rate. One game that will probably benefit greatly from Mea Geometry and the new foliage system with increased detail will be The Witcher IV. With a more accurate lighting and higher detail in forest areas, this tech should make for games taking place in outdoor worlds to be much more visually appealing.

Shouting it from the rooftops - starting today, March 10th, MONOPOLY GO! welcomes Hello Kitty and friends to the wonderful world of the virtual gameboard. For a limited time, players have the opportunity to enjoy mini games, collectibles, and customizable tokens during this exciting, limited time collab.

This event runs from March 10th - March 29th, so make sure you don't miss your opportunity to see your favorite lovable Sanrio characters in action! From racing around colorful tracks to uncovering hidden treasures, you'll will love playing amongst the sweetest iconic characters imaginable: Hello Kitty, Cinnamoroll, My Melody, Keroppi, Pompompurin, Pochacco, and Kuromi.

You know if it's Hello Kitty I'm gonna write about it, right?

Developer ProbablyMonsters has shared a new narrative trailer for its single-player, third-person action game, Nekome: Nazi Hunter, which is coming to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, though no release date has been announced. The new trailer sheds some light on protagonist Vano Nastasu’s blood-soaked quest to kill the Nazis that brutally murdered his family.

Inspired by grindhouse cinema, Nekome: Nazi Hunter blends stealth and visceral melee combat together. Playing as Vano, you’ll scout enemy routes, use the environment to turn the odds in your favor, and then engage in close-quarters melee combat using improvised weapons and brutal finishing blows. A notoriety and fear system means enemies may panic, hesitate, or flee altogether based on whether players kill with precision or chaos, which sounds pretty sick.

This looks and sounds fantastic. Check it out for yourself in the new trailer below. It's so violent that you can't even watch it without signing in.

WWE 2K26 has launched in early access, with the release of the standard edition this Friday and we finally have a full list of DLC for this years game.

There are some pretty great additions here with Demolition finally making their way to the WWE games along with the two I'm sure everyone screamed in excitement when they were announced, The Hardy Boys. We are also getting four more AAA stars spread out throughout the year. What's also crazy is the fact that they were able to get both Royce Keys and Danhausen in this year who both debuted in the WWE in January and February respectively. 

Here is the full list of DLC for the year and the months their seasons will start

Season 1 - Launch

• El Hijo Del Vikingo
• Lady Flammer
• Psycho Clown
• Mr. Iguana

Season 2 - April

• Axe
• Smash
• Crush
• Kelly Kelly

Season 3 - June

• Matt Cardona
• Brian Pillman
• La Parka
• Torrie Wilson

Season 4 - July

• Matt Hardy
• Jeff Hardy
• Lady Shani
• Jelly Roll

Season 5 - September

• Bam Bam Bigelow
• Brie Bella
• Pagano
• Danhausen

Season 6 - October

• Royce Keys
• Earthquake
• Typhoon
• Octagon Jr. 

After having WWE 2K26 for a few weeks now I do like the idea of the Ringside Pass but absolutely think some changes need to be made. Mainly in how long it takes to unlock the DLC wrestlers. Level 20 is too much and should be Level 10 at the latest. 

I reviewed WWE 2K26 and personally think that it's is the best WWE game 2K have made yet, with tons of updates and new additions that are a ton of fun but for other people I wouldn't blame them if the very aggressive monetization this year really puts them off of the game. 

Early access is officially here if you plunked down that fabulous moolah for the King of Kings, Attitude, or Monday Night Wars edition of WWE 2K26. But that's not what we're here to discuss. 

WWE Games has confirmed that there are past and present superstars coming to the game via Ringside Pass. I know you have mixed feelings about it. And that's ok. Here are the confirmations so far. 

Matt Cardona - Season 3

Brian Pillman - Season 3

Lady Shani (AAA) - Season 4

La Parka (AAA) - Season 3

Octagon Jr (AAA) - Season 6

Brie Bella - Season 5

Bam Bam Bigelow - Season 5

Torrie Wilson - Season 3

The Natural Disasters (Earthquake and Typhoon) - Season 6

Kelly Kelly - Season 2

The Hardy Boyz - Season 4

Pagano (AAA) - Season 5

That's it so far. If you did get the game early, there's a early adopter locker code for MyFaction. BSTINTWRLD26 will get you 2 My Faction Packs. Enjoy! 

Open-world arcade adventure, The Coin Game, is releasing a 1.0 version on March 19^th for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The release version will include new locations, vehicles, side quests, quality-of-life improvements, performance enhancements, and a new Survivor Mode.

The Coin Game lets you visit an island packed with ticket games and realistic arcades with machines inspired by some of the real-life classics. After playing and earning tickets, you swap them for prizes at various redemption areas. You can also play laser tag, go indoor go-karting, or visit a ‘90s-style indoor mall that has a food court, shops, and a cinema. If you run out of money to play games, you can explore the island to scavenge dumpsters, deliver newspapers, or sell items at the pawn shop.

I want this. Check out the console announcement trailer below:

Despite Q1 of 2026 already winding down, Wizards of the Coast finally has a Dungeons & Dragons roadmap. The roadmap is cordoned with three upcoming "seasons."

Unexpectedly, a Season of Horror straddles Spring and Summer, headlined by Ravenloft: The Horrors Within. Nothing like bringing out the undead after a good thaw. Then a Season of Magic goes from Summer into Fall, with the dryly named D&D Reference Cards leading the way, and the magic-infused Arcana Unleashed taking us from summer vacation into the next school year. 2026 then wraps with a Season of Champions with something yet to be revealed. For suspense.

• Season of Horror
  • Ravenloft: The Horrors Within
    • Pre-order April 13
    • Master Tier (on D&D Beyond) June 2
    • Hero Tier (also on D&D Beyond) June 9
    • Wide release June 16

Also, check out that alternate cover on the right for Ravenloft. Tell me that isn't the most challenging cover design you've seen on a Wizards of the Coast product so far.

• Season of Magic
  • Reference Cards in August
  • Arcana Unleashed, a gameplay expansion, in September
  • Arcana Unleashed: Deadfall, an adventure expansion, also in September, paired up like Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun and Adventures in Faerun were.

• Season of Champions
  • To be determined

Meanwhile, D&D Beyond—the online home for most things Dungeons & Dragons—is going to be working on smoothing out online tools for players and Dungeon Masters.

• Spring: DM Prep
• Summer: Event Finder
• Fall: Player Onboarding, Character Builder 2.0

And partnered content (read as tabletop content that will appear on D&D Beyond but isn't published by Wizards of the Coast) has already been firing off in 2026, and has more to come by the year's halfway point.

• Winter—this stuff is already available:
  
  • Exploring Eberron
  • The Pugilist Class
  • Faster Purple Worm Kill Kill V1

• Spring
  • Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting Part 2
  • The Griffon's Saddlebag Book 1 (I had wondered why Book 2 came out first)
  • Dr. Holin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs
  • Tom Cartos Sticker Packs
  • Northlands Worldbook

And in the real world, four major conventions own the year's beltline:

• Spring
  • Universal Fanfest
  • Gary Con

• Summer
  • GenCon
  • London Fan Expo

Everything I've typed up above is much easier to visualize with the actual roadmap. Behold:

Good news from publisher Wired Productions and developer Caged Element today, which announced that combat racer Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks is finally coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S later this year. If you’ve been itching for a Twisted Metal-style game, this just might be it.

The console version of Speed Freeks will include every update, weapon, map, mode, vehicle, and DLC released so far on PC. It will also support full cross-play across all platforms. You should check out the console announcement trailer below. It makes me feel a little Freeky inside.

Key Game Features:

• Multiple Chaotic Game Modes including Deff Rally, Kill Konvoy and Cusotm Rally
• Authentic Warhammer 40,000 worlds and vehicles.
• Real-Time Co-Op Building and community features.
• The Orkiest Game EVER
• Fast, Brutal, Kunning Combat
• Extensive Customization Options
• A robust creation mode allowing you to build new levels in real time with your friends.

"Minishoot' Adventures is a non hand holding, bullet hell, Legend of Zelda like shoot-em-up with Smash TV elements. If you want a game with all that thrown in, then this game is for you. Don't sleep on this one. It's so good. You're guaranteed to lose your ship." - Joseph Moorer

That's what I said in my review of the amazing Minishoot Adventures. It is a twin stick, top down Zelda-like game, where you guide a ship around a map to free your friends from The Unchosen. Full exploration, upgrading your ship and weapons, and fighting huge bosses is all here, in a nice and challenging package. 

Now, you can get the game on PS5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch 1 and 2, and it is out today. It's a great deal at $15.99, and you can check out the release below, plus a little of my playthrough.
