Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 feels familiar in all the right ways as far as gameplay is concerned, but really takes things up a notch with the addition of a second playable character.

While most of those handheld ports from Retro Roundup! feel disappointing by today’s standards, there are a handful of titles here, including the more modern and polished Toy Story 3: Complete Edition, that are still worth checking out.

I’ll admit, I’ve had a few surprises thrown my way in 2026, but Star Wars: Galactic Racer might just be the biggest surprise of them all. It’s downright fun to play, no matter the mode, and it looks incredible at every turn.

If you’ve never played Ghost of Yotei before, though, make sure to pick up the Complete Edition, as I feel that should now be considered just as definitive.

While Minecraft Dungeons II can feel a little linear and shallow at times, I had fun with it, at least over the course of a weekend.

Most of EA Sports FC 27’s improvements feel noticeable and, at certain points, warranted, but its biggest swings, like The Grounds, for example, only highlight the fact that there’s more work to be done.

Even if you’re not a fan of the franchise or simply haven’t jumped on board yet, Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve serves up some incredible gameplay, wedged in between stunning visuals and a memorable story.

Overall, Dune: Awakening is a fun experience that feels incredibly authentic at its core, even if it suffers from bland gunplay and repetitive endgame content.

While there’s less in the way of content than Vol. 1, I’m still a massive fan of everything on offer. It’s simply nice to have two previously inaccessible games on modern hardware, both treated to much nicer 4K/ 60 FPS facelifts.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword presents a decent story that’s held up by its absolutely stellar combat.

Marvel’s Wolverine fights through its flaws with the determination and grit of Logan himself, resting on an engaging story, a charming Wolverine and some incredibly satisfying and brutal combat to make it worth your while.

Overall, NBA 2K27 feels like it has taken one step forward, yet two steps back. It’s fun to play thanks to the adjusted rhythm shooting, new dribble animations and Dunk Meter, but it just feels held back by everything else.

While I would have loved a little more of the story throughout, along with some extra opportunities for combat, there’s no denying how good Orbitals looks, on top of how fun it is to play.

Mortal Shell 2 won’t really break the mould for those invested in the genre, but it’s certainly a step in the right direction for developer Cold Symmetry.

Overall, Star Wars Zero Company is the turn-based tactics game I never knew I wanted, and one of the best games of 2026.

The Sinking City 2 might have its flaws, but is ultimately a decent sequel that I believe would still please fans of the original game and Lovecraftian Cthulhu lore alike.

Mafia: The Old Country – Man of Honor doesn’t breathe new life into the game, nor does it give those who maybe didn’t enjoy the initial experience a reason to return. But for everyone else, including fans of the base game and those interested in giving this a shot, I urge you to jump on board.
