Players can dive into the latest instalment in the beloved RPG series, featuring the vibrant world of Monster Hunter™ shaped by the bonds between Riders and monsters.

A Tale of Two Kingdoms and Twisted Fates  

Set two centuries after the Rift War, the kingdoms of Azuria and Vermeil stand divided. Twin Rathalos unexpectedly hatch from a single egg, igniting a story of forbidden lands and twisted destinies. A mysterious Crystal Encroachment emerges, threatening ecosystems and habitats across the land and causing conflicts between monsters. Along the journey, players will meet companions including vice-captain Gaul, monster expert Ogden, Ranger Squad co-founder Kora, the protagonist’s best friend and confidante Simon, Thea, the brand-new member of the Rangers, and Eleanor, Princess of Vermeil. As the protagonist, players take on the role of Prince/Princess of Azuria, and captain of the Ranger Squad to protect endangered eggs, restore ecosystems, and confront powerful monsters. Players can also customize their protagonist’s appearance to fully step into the roles.

Strategic Combat and Mechanics

In Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection, players engage in turn-based battles built around a rock-paper-scissor system, where attack types such as Power, Speed, and Technical counter one another for tactical advantage. The new system, Synchro Rush allows the full party to join forces for a massive, coordinated attack. In addition, Habitat Restoration allows players to release monsters into the wild to protect endangered species and influence an area’s Ecosystem Rank, which affects egg availability, monster traits, and elemental attributes. There are even rare Monsters that can be hatched from eggs obtained in the living ecosystem shaped by player actions.

Players can also explore the vast world of Monster Hunter Stories 3 by using Riding Actions, including climbing, gliding, and flying on the backs of Monsties to reach new locations, uncover hidden items, and traverse freely through vast, three-dimensional terrain. Check out the official Launch Trailer below. To celebrate launch, fans can also watch the Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection | Echoing Wings – Official Music Video, featuring a musical tribute to the story of the game.

The High-Voltage “Tethered” Roguelike Space Shooter Plugs Into All Major Consoles and PC in 2026

Barcelona, Spain – March 13, 2026.

The game delivers a deep roguelike gameplay loop where every run is a new challenge. To survive, players must navigate procedurally generated sectors, master a rechargeable slow-mo system, and engage in intense combat against several massive bosses that guard the end of each galaxy. With over 250 bullet modifier combinations and 40+ upgrades available to customize their build, players will need to use their brains to come up with the best strategy to destroy their enemies and advance in the galaxy. In order to do so, they will have to choose from 10+ distinct ships, each with its own set of attributes, and rescue stranded pilots to build a supporting army.

Zaragoza-based SIDRALGAMES is a studio known for blending innovative mechanics with striking retro aesthetics. Following the success of El Gancho, the team has evolved their game-jam roots into a multi-platform development. With HYPERWIRED, they are building upon the mechanical foundation of their previous work to deliver their most polished and ambitious arcade experience to date.

Düren, Germany – March 13th 2026 — Developer FrameOver and Publisher Headup unveiled their narrative tactical combat title The 9th Dragon with an atmospheric gameplay trailer, showing off its striking voxel visuals in a glimpse at the combat and traversal in the game’s 80s-inspired cityscape at last night’s Future Games Show.

The 9th Dragon combines tactical combat with a dynamic free-style beat ‘em up approach as players navigate the gritty neon maze of Kowloon as Rookie, the newest member of an elite police commando unit. Players will shape the narrative to go either way – will Rookie be a hero, or not? It all depends on the decisions made throughout the story.

Features of The 9th Dragon include:

• Brutal free-style beat ’em up combat: Take down ruthless gang members and powerful Kowloon kingpins using brutal hand-to-hand combat and a diverse arsenal — from pistols and Uzis to shotguns, flamethrowers, and devastating explosives.
• Tactical fights in tight spaces: Battles unfold in cramped rooms and narrow alleys where positioning matters. Break enemy stamina to control the fight, finish enemies with devastating moves like the Grap, and use the environment to survive. 
• A story shaped by your choices: Throughout the game, your decisions influence Rookie’s moral path. Spare or eliminate enemies, return or keep mission money, and shape your Hero / Anti-Hero alignment—leading to different outcomes. 
• Explore the legendary Kowloon Walled City: Climb rooftops, move across cables and ziplines, blow open hidden paths, and explore the dense urban maze of Kowloon at its peak. 
• Secrets, upgrades, and hidden lore: Collect old comic books to unlock new combat abilities and combo chains. Discover lore items, speak to NPCs for clues, and uncover secrets hidden throughout the city. 
• Deadly enemies and powerful bosses: Face 20 enemy types and 8 unique bosses, each with their own abilities, fighting styles, and weapons across roughly 10 hours of intense action.

In SEED, players build a new society through collaborative effort

Berlin, Germany, March 12^th 2026 – Today, Klang Games revealed a new cinematic trailer for their large-scale multiplayer society simulator SEED in The Future Games Show Spring Showcase 2026 on Thursday, March 12^th. 

In this always-on world, players are in control of one or more seedlings, the inhabitants of humanity’s new home, a planet called  Avesta. They guide their seedlings as part of a growing and evolving society, helping them interact with the world and each other by assigning job roles, forging relationships and building out their section of the planet. Players can create all items, including food, furniture and craftable items or buy goods from an NPC marketplace. Other than that, players won’t encounter any NPC characters in SEED; all Seedlings are controlled and managed by players (cultivators) and the world is entirely shaped by them. From the smallest chair to the most complex machinery, every item in Avesta is gathered, crafted and sold in a player-driven economy. Everything, from the hospital seedlings get treatment in to the government you vote, is player-driven.

The cinematic trailer features the song “Human Behavior” by the Icelandic artist Björk, who has always stayed at the forefront of technology and innovation, and gives a first impression into the possibilities that SEED has to offer. Björk has this to say about the collaboration:

“I am so thrilled my song is in this game SEED . congratulations everyone !!! warmth , björk”

From the first steps of a new civilization to advanced societies that have determined their own laws and government, SEED offers a virtual space in which a world can grow through collaborative effort, with no limitations on the possible outcome. The stakes are real: If you don’t produce food, others don’t eat; if others don’t build shelter, you have nowhere to stay – failure to maintain a community’s production could mean the literal death of seedlings. 

Seedlings have their own personalities and understand their environment contextually through deep character AI. Players can directly interact with them by using the in-game “Seedling Chat.” From convincing them to ask a crush on their date, understanding their thoughts and feelings to full conversations in the life simulation aspect of SEED. Seedlings also build relationships with other seedlings and communicate with each other even when the player isn’t guiding them. They live a whole life with real consequences.

Features:

• 24/7 Persistent Life: Avesta never stops! Seedlings continue to work, sleep, and socialize even when players log off.
• Player-Driven Economy & Industry: Every item in Avesta, from a simple chair to complex machinery, is gathered, crafted and sold by players.
• Collaborative Governance: Players form shared societies and define their own laws and government structures, ranging from democracies to authoritarian dictatorships.
• “Seedling Chat”: Players talk directly to their seedlings through the “Seedling Chat”, which is allowing them to understand their thoughts and feelings or influence their social lives.
• Life Cycles & Inheritance: Seedlings have a life cycle, they age and die.
• One Shared World: In SEED, everyone is sharing the same world – with the potential to become the largest simulation in gaming history.  

The founders coming from Eve Online, the goal of SEED is to bring the promise of a persistent single universe to a larger audience.

More information onSEED is available on the official website.
