"With a landmark year for games in its rearview mirror, 2026 has a lot to live up to, even if you consider the "Grand" finale scheduled for November. Sure, Grand Theft Auto 6 (or GTA 6) makes this year perhaps the most awaited one in recent memory - the last time a game came close to defining the year it launched was perhaps Cyberpunk 2077 in 2020 and Rockstar's own Red Dead Redemption 2 in 2018 -"
"There are plenty of games to look forward to this year, from long-awaited sequels to new IPs to triple-A exclusives and indie gems. The obvious candidates, of course, include some of the biggest games set to launch in 2026: Grand Theft Auto 6, 007 First Light, Marvel's Wolverine, Resident Evil Requiem, Saros, Control Resonant, Forza Horizon 6, and Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis."
"Highguard was revealed as a surprise final announcement at The Game Awards 2025, and the reception to the reveal was less than enthusiastic. Fans were expecting a major announcement like Half Life 3, but left disappointed when Geoff Keighley raised the curtain on Highguard, a free-to-play hero shooter from a new studio. But a lot of the criticism Highguard has faced since its reveal is also a bit harsh and unfair."
2026 is poised to be a major year for games with Grand Theft Auto 6 scheduled for November and numerous other high-profile releases across platforms. The year includes long-awaited sequels, new intellectual properties, AAA exclusives, and indie titles. Confirmed 2026 launches include Grand Theft Auto 6, 007 First Light, Marvel's Wolverine, Resident Evil Requiem, Saros, Control Resonant, Forza Horizon 6, and Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, along with less obvious entries such as Nioh 3, Pragmata, and Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. Highguard launched its reveal at The Game Awards 2025 and received mixed reactions, with some criticism about its similarity to Overwatch despite experienced developers. Release scheduling focuses on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch platforms.
