Following the somewhat controversial release of Street Fighter V, Capcom came back bigger and better with the arrival of Street Fighter 6 in June of 2023. Since launch, the latest entry in the much-loved fighting game franchise has continued to consistently sell well, with Street Fighter 6 having now officially surpassed 6 million copies sold.

Making the announcement on Twitter, the game’s official page confirmed that Street Fighter 6 “has now sold over 6 million units worldwide! Our utmost gratitude to everyone who has hit the streets and to all those who will soon join us.”

For context, Street Fighter 6 managed to sell 1 million copies in its first 3 days on the market back in June 2023 – going on to push to 2 million by the end of its first month. By January of 2024 SF6 had surpassed 3 million copies.

Capcom then announced in September of 2024 that SF6 had reached a total of 4 million. This figure was then increased to 5 million earlier in June of this year. Of course, now 5 months later and Street Fighter 6 has officially sold 6 million copies.

That said, the game still has a ways to go in order to meet expectations, with Capcom’s President claiming prior to the game’s release that they hope Street Fighter 6 will reach 10 million copies when all is said and done.

Given that Capcom still has plenty of post-launch support planned for Street Fighter 6, it could very well hit its target within the coming years.

If Bethesda is known for one thing, it’s featuring a ton of bugs in its games. Luckily, dedicated modders have for years kept the likes of Fallout 4 stable with countless mods, bug fixes and other optimisations – a majority of which were recently broken thanks to Fallout 4’s controversial Anniversary update. Just a few weeks later and a double-edged sword of an announcement has been made, with Fallout 4 set to receive yet another update which many fans have not been asking for.

Taking to their steam page to make the announcement, the team at Bethesda Game Studios unveiled a new update coming to Fallout 4 which should fix many of the issues introduced with the recent Anniversary update – including but not limited to:

• Fixed a crash that could occur when selecting ‘Purchase Credits' on PC 
• Fixed a crash when selecting ‘Download all owned Creation Club Creations’
• Switching Xbox user profiles no longer causes softlocks or loss of controls
• Performance improvements in the Creations menu across platforms
• Fixed softlocking when entering/exiting the Creations menu repeatedly
• Players can now like/unlike creations in the Load Order menu as intended

The full list of patch notes can be found HERE and does include plenty of welcome fixes. That said, as mentioned this update will once again break a ton of key mods which Fallout 4 fans have used for years now.

Response to the update has been rather negative, with many Steam users expressing frustration at the fact that their mods will once again be broken while offering little in the way of benefits. Of course, users on PC can block Fallout 4 from updating in order to preserve their games, but regardless it is becoming quite clear that fans have started to tire of Bethesda’s cycle.

Back at the start of 2025, Epic Games released their annual year-in-review, revealing a ton of stats from the past 12 months, including the fact that the storefront was nearing a total user base of 300 million. In looking forwards towards the future, Epic confirmed that game gifting would be coming to the platform at some point. The future is now finally here, with Epic announcing that “Gifting is live on the Epic Games Store.”

Making the official announcement on their blog, the Epic Games Store team finally unveiled this long-awaited feature, writing:

“Gifting is live on the Epic Games Store. Players can now purchase and send games directly to friends on their Epic friends list, making it easier to celebrate special occasions, share favorite titles, or just surprise a friend with a new game.”

As with many Epic Games Store transactions, gifting a friend with a game will net you Epic Rewards which can then be further used for gifting (or whatever else you wish to use them for).

Going into specifics, Epic explained that “recipients have 14 days to accept the gift. If they already own the game, the gift cannot be accepted, and the purchase is refunded. Gifts can also be rejected, in which case the sender will receive a refund.”

Finally, Epic made sure to note that not everything on its store can be gifted, with free games; pre-purchase offers; subscriptions; and in-game currency or other consumable items being ineligible.

Of course, gifting has been available on other PC storefronts/launchers for years now, and so this addition is nothing new. That said, it is encouraging nonetheless to see the feature finally available on the Epic Games Store.

Dragon’s Dogma is one of Capcom’s more interesting franchises. While the first game failed to set the world on fire due to a variety of reasons, it managed to achieve cult-hit status in the years following – eventually leading to the surprise announcement and release of a sequel last year. Though the game suffered from a similar number of issues, Dragon’s Dogma 2 has continued to find new audiences, with the game having now officially sold over 4 million copies.

Making the announcement on Twitter, the official Dragon’s Dogma team wrote: “Thank you to the 4 million Arisen around the world! We’re grateful to share the immersive fantasy world of Dragon’s Dogma 2 with you all, where freedom and adventure await.”

While this represents just over half of the total sales witnessed with the first entry in the series (7.9 million), the original Dragon’s Dogma launched all the way back in 2012 compared to DD2’s arrival back in March of 2024.

For some further context, Dragon’s Dogma 2 was confirmed to have surpassed 2.5 million copies back in early April of last year – less than two weeks after the game’s official launch.

Of course, as mentioned, the game was far from perfect, with players noting a plethora of both visual and performance issues at launch, leading to an overall ‘mixed’ rating on Steam.

Despite this, it appears as though the unique series has continued to find an audience. Whether it will manage to surpass the first game’s total sales, we will have to wait and see, but so far Dragon’s Dogma 2 seems to be on a solid sales trajectory.

The ‘Tales' franchise is a long-running though oft-forgotten series of JRPGs which started its life all the way back in 1995. In the 30 years since, we’ve seen well over a dozen titles released across a plethora of platforms. While the last mainline entry ‘Tales of Arise’ launched back in 2021, publisher Bandai Namco has kept the series alive with a bunch of remasters; the latest of which will see 2016’s Tales of Berseria come to modern platforms – including Xbox and Switch for the first time.

Releasing a surprise announcement trailer, Bandai Namco officially unveiled Tales of Berseria Remastered. Set to launch on the 27th of February 2026 for the PlayStation 5; PC and for the first time the Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch, the remaster includes the base game alongside its MANY different cosmetic DLCs (aside from some select licensed items).

Beyond this, not much was shared regarding enhancements, with the only confirmed improvements being the addition of “new quality-of-life updates including destination icon, the ability to toggle encounters, early grade shop access, and more!”

Interestingly, it appears as though Berseria Remastered has been developed with the OG Switch in mind – at least when it comes to Nintendo consoles – with Bandai noting that “we are currently testing compatibility of the Nintendo Switch 2.”

While the Tales of series may feel daunting due to the sheer number of entries, a majority of the titles are able to be played and understood as standalone experiences, and so if you have not tried Tales of Berseria, this upcoming remaster presents a great opportunity to do so.

Tales of Berseria Remastered arrives on the 27th of February 2026 for the relatively low price of £34.99.

Borderlands 4 is in many ways the best entry in the series while also suffering from a ton of issues – both technically but also content-wise. Following a highly disappointing free Halloween event, Gearbox has made some alterations to its DLC plans – now making the first ‘Bounty Pack’ free for all to claim.

Making the announcement on their blog, the team at Gearbox wrote: “It's a Mercenary Day miracle! We’re making the first Bounty Pack for Borderlands 4 free for all players! And we’re just getting started.”

Going into more depth, the team confirmed that those who bought Borderlands 4’s Seasonal DLC will still receive the promised 4 paid packs, with a new 5th Bounty Pack being announced to replace the now-free offering.

In addition to this, the team offered some updates on their future endgame content plans, revealing that “we've started development on Takedown content that will be included in a free update for all players in 2026. In this Takedown, you can expect an extremely challenging gauntlet through a new area, including hordes of enemies and new boss encounters.”

As mentioned, Borderlands 4 has been a bit of a mixed bag so far. While the gameplay, world and overall RPG mechanics have seen substantial improvements, its endgame content; free updates and performance leave a lot to be desired – and so it is encouraging to see the team trying to make right by the fans. It will be interesting to see what this new 5th pack winds up featuring.

Mafia: The Old Country released earlier this year to a solid amount of praise – with one of its biggest detractors being the game’s redundant-feeling open world zone. As was promised, the team have now released a new free expansion improving on this aspect, with the Free Ride Update officially available from today.

Making the announcement, the team at Hangar 13 officially detailed today’s free update, writing: “Free Ride is a callback to the original Mafia’s Free Ride Extreme, as well as the Free Ride mode we shipped in Mafia: Definitive Edition. It’s a collection of Challenges separate from the main story that give players chances to revisit the world in a more self-guided way.”

Going into more depth, they continued, “This time, we’ve constructed several kinds of repeatable Challenges—including combat, stealth, and different race types—in a variety of new and familiar locations. Completing Challenges will earn you the Dinari in-game currency to spend on the new outfits, charms, weapons, and vehicles unlocked by progressing through this content (as well as on items unlocked via the campaign).”

Beyond this, the update is also said to include “a number of other fresh and exciting features” – though this was not elaborated upon.

Full details on the Free Ride update (including the developers’ thoughts on the addition of first-person driving, visual filters and more) can be found HERE, but for those who already own the game you might want to hop in and discover all the additions/improvements for yourself.

Mafia: The Old Country’s Free Ride Update is available from today.

Following the disappointment that was Battlefield 2042, EA / DICE came back bigger and stronger than ever with the recent release of Battlefield 6. While the game is already a certified success, EA themselves have now claimed Battlefield 6 to be “the best selling shooter game of the year.”

As discovered by Call of Duty leaker CharlieIntel, the main Battlefield 6 page on EA’s website has been updated with a new description.

While in and of itself nothing worthy of note, the updated page states that “There's never been a better time to jump into the best selling shooter game of the year” – the first official confirmation that BF6 has taken the top spot.

For context, it was already reported that Battlefield 6 managed to achieve the biggest launch in franchise history, with the game having sold over 10 million copies since its official launch back in late October.

Of course, we would be remiss not to mention the Call of Duty sized elephant in the room, with Treyarch’s Black Ops 7 having arrived just last week – though to a middling reception on PC at least.

That said, even the worst CODs have historically ended up taking the top spot in the best-sellers list each year, and so we will have to wait and see whether Black Ops 7 winds up outpacing Battlefield 6 by the end of 2025. So far however, Battlefield seems to be leading the pack.

2026 appears to be the year in which last-gen support could finally be winding down, with multiple live-service titles announcing that they will no longer update their games on PS4 / Xbox One come next year. Joining this ever-growing list is Embark Studios’ The Finals – with the PS4 version set to be discontinued this upcoming March.

Making the announcement on Twitter, the team at Embark Studios confirmed that the PS4 version of The Finals (which actually launched AFTER the current-gen versions) will soon be discontinued, writing:

“When Season 10 begins (18th of March, 2026), we'll be retiring THE FINALS on PlayStation 4 and focusing our support on current generation hardware.”

Of course, being an online game, players will be able to continue playing elsewhere, with Embark noting “your progress and purchases will be stored in your Embark ID and will transfer to anywhere you choose to play.”

As mentioned, The Finals is far from the first game to be ceasing last-gen support, with PUBG: Battlegrounds officially moving over to current-gen just last week (and Genshin Impact set to do the same in April of next year).

It will be interesting to see whether The Finals’ switch to current-gen only will allow for more ambitious updates in the future. We will have to wait and find out.

Prior to the game’s official release, the team at Sucker Punch Productions revealed that they plan to support Ghost of Yotei in a similar manner to the previous Ghost of Yotei. While fans will have to wait until next year to get their hands on the promised multiplayer Legends Mode, a major free update is set to arrive early next week – adding a NewGame+ option, extra cosmetics and more.

Making the official announcement on the PlayStation Blog, the Senior Communications Manager at Sucker Punch Productions ‘Andrew Goldfarb’ wrote:

“On November 24, a free patch for all Ghost of Yōtei players will introduce New Game Plus, allowing you to replay Atsu’s quest for vengeance from the beginning with everything you earned throughout the campaign. Yes, that means it’s time to bring a gun to a sword fight, with all of the armors, abilities, and weapons from your first playthrough available from the start of the game.“

Beyond being able to play through the story with all of your upgrades unlocked, the NewGame+ mode introduces quite a lot in the way of new content, including by not limited to:

• A new harder difficulty
• Two additional Trophies to earn (most likely tied to the new difficulty and NG+)
• New Ghost Flower currency
  • Used to obtain additional armour sets, weapon dyes and charms
• The ability to “earn an additional tier of upgrades for your existing armor sets and weapons”

Outside of NewGame+, the update also introduces a number of quality-of.-life improvements, such as:

• Being able to replay post-game content with new player stats
• More accessibility options
• Photo mode expansion with shutter speed, composition grid and more

Ghost of Yotei has had a strong launch so far, matching that of Tsushima despite being available on fewer systems. With this upcoming update arriving so soon (and the multiplayer Legends mode slated for early next year), Atsu still has a ways to go before completing her journey.

One of the biggest new innovations seen with the Nintendo Switch 2 is the console’s mouse mode feature – allowing you to turn your Joy-Con onto its side and slide it around like a PC peripheral. While some games have made use of the feature, one title which will not is Resident Evil Requiem; with the game’s producer claiming to have “tried really hard to implement mouse controls for Nintendo Switch 2.”

A major supporter of Nintendo in recent years has been Capcom, with the game developer / publisher releasing a bunch of titles for the OG Switch throughout its lifecycle.

Easily the biggest Capcom game coming to Switch 2 so far is Resident Evil Requiem – coming day-and-date with all other systems in February of 2026.

In an interview with the publication PressStart, Resident Evil Requiem producer Masato Kumazawa was asked about the upcoming game’s Switch 2 release and whether they suffered from any issues during development. According to Kumazawa:

“Looking back on Switch, there were Resident Evil games before on the Switch, so what we did, is we used the past experience of developing these games on the Switch to help develop Nintendo Switch 2. But also, we made a lot of versions of the games for PC as well. In fitting with PCs that have a wide variety of specs, we could also just make sure the game was optimised for the Nintendo Switch 2 too. So it wasn’t too hard, so to speak.”

While it appears so far as though the Switch 2 version should be able to keep up with the rest of the systems, Requiem will not be making use of one of the Switch 2’s most unique features, with Kumazawa adding:

“We tried really hard to implement mouse controls for Nintendo Switch 2. When we put it in, it confused the gameplay and became too complicated. So actually, we are using gyro instead.”

Of course, the inclusion of gyro controls is welcome to see, however it would be interesting to know exactly how mouse mode ‘confused the gameplay’. Perhaps Requiem requires heavy use of the face buttons? We will have to wait and see, but hopefully developers are able to find useful implementations of the Switch 2’s mouse mode as the generation progresses.
