Tanuki: Pon’s Summer

Moving over to a cute game reveal, Xbox showed off Tanuki” Pon’s Summer.

Asurajang Rumble

A battle royale that packs a punch, the new trailer for Asurajang Rumble shined a spotlight on the game’s varied cast of brawlers and their special combat skills.

Fallout 76

In the best news to come out of the Wasteland since we found that old suit of functioning power armor, we can confirm that cats and dogs have survived the nuclear apocalypse and they haven’t been horrifically mutated.

Suikoden 1 and 2 Remastered

Suikoden 1 and 2 Remastered has a release date of March 6, 2025, and in case you’re wondering just how much of a difference several decades can make, a comparison trailer showed the glow-up between games.

All You Need Is Help

We don’t know how to describe All You Need Is Help, a multiplayer puzzle game that looks like Tetris mixed with goofy animals, so we’re just going to move on to the next reveal.

The Starbites: Taste of Desert

Mechs, anime-inspired visuals, and cool fashion that we wish we could add to our wardrobes. All that and more appeared in this video showing off more gameplay from The Starbites: Taste of Desert

Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake

It’s not long to go before the Dragon Quest 3 GD Remake launches on November 14, and if you’re not quite sold yet on this HD-2D JRPG, the very lengthy gameplay video for it did a great job in showing off new graphicalenhancements, gameplay changes, and more.
