Previews

Previews and first impressions on upcoming games in 2025-2026. We got our hands on it before you: find out what convinced us, and what didn't.

Wand & Order: 4,000 items to sort because a cleaning spell turned into a tornado

A magical sorting game where you unlock spells to work faster. No date yet, so no score yet.

A four-player zombie survival where weather drives the threat. Announced for 22 October, so not yet judgeable.

The hand-drawn metroidvania was due today. It now arrives on 23 September, and the studio's message is worth reading.

424 items, asynchronous PvP, and a trading feature the studio itself presents with caution.

A 3D globe modelled on real geography, global supply chains, and a system that judges your methods as much as your profits.

Four legendary lords, the biggest DLC in the series according to Creative Assembly, and a free update that reworks the Vampire Counts.

Tribe, village, city, state. A survival game crossing ten thousand years to ask a rare question: where does a king's legitimacy come from?

Autonomous fleets, a living economy, thousands of ships. A design gamble that is not playing on Stellaris's pitch.

An open world RPG that invokes Morrowind in its very trailer. The playtesters, for their part, do not all agree.
