MXGP 26 REVEALS ITSELF IN FIRST GAMEPLAY TRAILER

Lesquin, France – July 20, 2026 – NACON and Lyon-based development studio Artefacts Studio today revealed the first gameplay trailer for MXGP 26, the official video game of the FIM Motocross World Championship. The trailer offers a glimpse into the major technological and gameplay innovations of this new installment, scheduled for release in October 2026 on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Unreal Engine 5: a photorealistic technological leap

Thanks to the transition to Unreal Engine 5, MXGP 26 achieves a historic visual milestone. The trailer showcases this striking photorealism through wide environmental shots, ultra-detailed mud textures under the rain, and precise mechanical close-ups (suspension, exhausts).

Redesigned physics and total helmet-cam immersion

Immersion is taken to the next level, notably through a gripping first-person helmet view, fully rewritten motorcycle physics, and completely reworked rider animations. The rider reacts dynamically to the track’s terrain, adopting realistic body movements during jumps, flat or banked turns, and while navigating ruts. Furthermore, the bike and gear progressively get dirty throughout the race, depending on the weather and soil conditions (dirt, sand, mud).

“Dynamic Deformation”: a living track that evolves in real time

The terrain in MXGP 26 is now alive. Dynamic deformation technology alters the track as riders pass through. As shown repeatedly in the trailer, the continuous passage of bikes digs deep, persistent ruts lap after lap, forcing players to constantly adapt their racing lines. Within just a few laps, the track is completely transformed from the start of the race!

Official 2026 season content in the spotlight

The trailer highlights a preview of the game’s rich official content and customization options:

  • Iconic Tracks: Including Bariloche in Argentina (volcanic soil), Riola Sardo in Sardinia (sand), Pietramurata in Italy (compact dirt), and Loket in the Czech Republic (hard-pack dirt).
  • Elite Riders: Across both MXGP and MX2 categories, players will find stars of the sport such as Romain Febvre, Maxime Renaux, Kay de Wolf, and Calvin Vlaanderen.
  • Full Customization: A comprehensive editor allows players to design their rider and customize official machines from championship manufacturers (Kawasaki, Husqvarna, Yamaha, KTM, Honda…) with gear from leading brands (Fox Racing, Alpinestars, Scott, Airoh, etc.).

Whether competing in intense online races (up to 10 players), engaging in Grand Prix, Championship, and Time Attack modes, or freely exploring the vast training grounds of The CompoundMXGP 26 stands out as the ultimate motocross experience.

MXGP 26 will be available in October 2026 on nacongaming.fr, PC, PlayStation®5, and Xbox.

BATTLEFIELD 6 AND TOP GUN JOIN FORCES FOR BIGGEST BLOCKBUSTER SEASON YET

Battlefield Debuts First-Ever Entertainment Collaboration with Paramount’s Record-Breaking Franchise, Featuring All-Star Talent from Top Gun: Maverick for Battlefield 6 and REDSEC

Sydney, Australia. (July 18, 2026) – Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) and Battlefield Studios today revealed a first look at Battlefield 6™ and Battlefield REDSEC, delivering the franchise’s largest seasonal update to date with Naval Warfare, new content, and a meticulously crafted knockout Top Gun crossover experience in partnership with Paramount Games Studio. The update will include the F-18/Super Hornet and iconic F-14 Tomcat, fan-favourite characters from Top Gun, as well as two new modes inspired by the franchise’s iconic aerial combat.

Three characters from Top Gun come to life in-game, fully voiced by their original performers: Lt. Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw (Miles Teller), Lt. Robert “Bob” Floyd (Lewis Pullman), Adm. Solomon “Warlock” Bates (Charles Parnell), with Top Gun-inspired character skins and cosmetics available in-game.

“It’s a huge honour to appear in a long-running franchise like Battlefield with its millions of fans, and talented people working on it,” said Miles Teller. “And with Top Gun, it’s like two titans meeting.”

“I’ll actually be the one giving orders in-game, which I love,” said Charles Parnell, “If it’s my voice that pushes players on to clutch a win, that’s awesome.”

Carrier Strike is a new Battlefield 6 mode debuting during this collaboration that pits naval, air, and ground forces against one another as teams seek to destroy the enemy aircraft carrier in a showdown creating an incredible blending of Battlefield and Top Gun’s defining characteristics.

“Battlefield is very intense, whether you’re in the sky or on the ground or fighting in the sea, “ said Lewis Pullman, “In that way, it’s a perfect pairing with Top Gun.”

Players can also jump into a new Gauntlet mission for Battlefield REDSEC, a jets-only combat mission set on a reworked version of Tsuru Reef, where they compete to be the best of the best. 

“Jets. Adrenaline. The drive to be the best. Battlefield’s unmatched sense of scale is the perfect way to bring Top Gun’s iconic and cinematic aerial combat to life.” says Ryan McArthur, Executive Producer. “We can’t wait for our players to experience the update when it hits on August 18 but our collaboration is also just a piece of Battlefield 6’s biggest season yet.”

Season 4 officially kicks off on July 21 with Phase 1 (Pacific Front) introducing the biggest map in Battlefield 6 yet, Tsuru Reef. This massive Pacific theater battleground features vast air and sea spaces as well as naval aircraft carriers with operational flight decks, and the introduction of our new Dynamic Wave System. This system adds a new dimension to ocean combat, where waves affect boat movement, player aim, and line of sight, allowing players to strategically ambush, flank, and use as cover in firefights.

Phase 2 (Top Gun) debuts on August 18th with Battlefield and Top Gun’s collaboration content alongside a reimagining of one of Battlefield’s classic maps, Wake Island. The final phase of Season 4 (Tidal Strike) releases on September 15 and includes a collection event offering rewards for those who complete naval-based contracts and challenges.

“When Battlefield 6 launched, it had a strong core of content that we’ve grown over time, using feedback from the community to make the game even better,” says Byron Beede, General Manager of Battlefield. “With the addition of Naval Warfare, our Top Gun collaboration, our largest map, and so much more, Season 4 is our biggest update yet and is the perfect opportunity for players old and new to dive in.”

Season 4 will also see the release of several eagerly anticipated updates to the game. Battlefield Studios is rolling out a series of quality-of-life updates, with Spectator Mode and the Portal Custom Lobby launching this season.

Survival Horror RPG GRAFT Debuts Story Trailer During Convergence Games Showcase 2026

This first-ever look at the game’s story also includes more gameplay elements amidst the horrors of the space station.

[July 17, 2026] – From the makers of the Shadowrun Trilogy comes GRAFT, a survival horror RPG where you find yourself battling the terrors of a dying megastructure known as the Arc. During the Convergence Games Showcase, a new trailer for GRAFT revealed our first look at the game’s story. Tormenting visions, a caring voice, and the uncertainty of a body becoming a weapon set the stage for a nightmarish trek through the Arc. Check out the trailer below!

Key Features:

  • Delve Into a Haunting World: The Arc is packed with powerful and unsettling wonders, if only you can live long enough to extract them. Master forgotten technologies and unearth secrets as you traverse yawning chasms, self replicating labyrinths, and techno-catacombs in search of a way out.
  • A Dark RPG Story: You are not the only survivor in the desolation. Form fragile alliances and build them into deeper relationships. Of course, anyone still living is likely both dangerous and treacherous, and that includes you. The choices you make will shape your journey and decide the fates of those you meet.
  • Tense Survival Horror Combat: Ancient feral experiments, strange abominations, and ruthless agents of a mad AI stalk you. Use the tools in your growing arsenal as you fight through the horrors in a visceral new twist on classic survival horror combat. You will need to pick your battles and manage your resources carefully in order to escape the Arc alive.
  • Transform to Survive: Your changing body is your most powerful weapon. Augment it with Grafts and build out your abilities according to your own strategies. Each Graft you rip from a fallen foe or find hidden in the recesses of the Arc is one more deadly tool in your expanding arsenal.
  • A Metamorphosis of Self: With each Graft, strange cravings and half-glimpsed memories flood your system. Now you remember the hot breath of a lover you never touched. Now you find yourself suddenly obsessing over cruel and sadistic impulses. You must choose what each of these fragments means to you, and you must live with the consequences of each choice.

While three new outfits are available from today, players who love Cinnamoroll can acquire a light blue and white ensemble inspired by Cinnamoroll’s blue eyes, huge ears, and curly cinnamon roll-like tail.

Players who prefer Kuromi’s sense of style can obtain a gothic purple and black outfit modelled on Kuromi’s edgier look. It comes complete with pink skull embellishments, just like her signature hood. 

Finally, the My Melody outfit set includes a pink and white dress with frilly accessories, strawberry accents, and a rabbit ear headband inspired by My Melody’s iconic hood.

During the event, players can complete their preferred look with corresponding SANRIO CHARACTERS Vehicles Collection — one per character — and My Melody, Cinnamoroll, and Kuromi character backpacks. 

Additionally, players can also spin a SANRIO CHARACTERS Gacha Machine to win My Melody, Cinnamoroll and Kuromi-inspired decorative items and figures, SANRIO CHARACTERS stickers, and basic Heartopia resources. Players can also obtain furniture sets from SANRIO CHARACTERS’ Rainbow Cottage.

Alternatively, players can collect stickers via daily quests or by trading with others. There are three sticker sets in total, one for each SANRIO CHARACTERS. Collecting a certain amount of stickers will unlock pet outfits based on My Melody, Cinnamoroll and Kuromi.

The Heartopia × SANRIO CHARACTERS collaboration event begins today and runs until 23 August. Heartopia is available to play for free now on PC, iOS, and Android.

New trailer offers a fresh look at the upcoming action-adventure prequel set in the Cathedral universe

Helsingborg, Sweden, March 20th, 2026 – Independent Swedish developer Decemberborn Interactive has revealed a brand-new trailer for Cathedral: Crow’s Curse, the upcoming action-adventure prequel set in the world of Cathedral. The trailer premiered during the Convergence Showcase, an online event celebrating some of the most exciting upcoming AA and indie games.

Cathedral: Crow’s Curse expands the world of Cathedral with a new story centered around Crow, a skilled Shade Sentinel first introduced as an NPC in Cathedral.

The game builds on the original’s foundations while introducing new locations, abilities, and challenges as players uncover the mysteries surrounding the Shade Sentinels.
