Atlus have announced a remake of Persona 4, called Persona 4 Revival, possibly because they have run out of ideas, just like everyone else. I snark, I snark, it’s the summer of video games, we’re allowed to do a bit of that. Here’s the short trailer showing the flashified protag-kun running through the city streets in his school uniform.
Indiana Jones and The Great Circle’s first expansion, The Order of the Giants, now has a release date — and it’s only a few months’ away.
The Order of the Giants will arrive on September 4, 2025, a brief teaser shown during today’s Xbox Games Showcase 2025 revealed. That’s for all platforms: PC, Xbox Series X/S, and yes, the newer PlayStation 5 version of the game too.
Indiana Jones and The Great Circle was one of the best games of 2024, and more of it is a very good thing. It looks like we’ll be seeing more of the game’s mysterious race of forerunner giants in this expansion — though whether that means more of the late Tony Todd remains to be seen.
The Outer Worlds 2 has a release date. It was shown in a new trailer at the Xbox Games Showcase, and featured something several unnamed scientists are calling “humour”.
Nordic stealth game Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream crept out from behind some barrels during last night’s Future Games Show and hit audiences over the back of the head with a release date. Some of the developers also showed up to share their enthusiasm for the game’s lighting effects, which to be fair are quite nice.
Hello reader who is also a reader, and welcome back to Booked For The Week – our regular Sunday chat with a selection of cool industry folks about books! No cool industry person this week.

Huzzah.
We’re making this a trend now, huh? It’s never long before Puyo Puyo Tetris makes its way onto the scene. Such was the case back in 2017 with the launch of the original Switch, when a worldwide release of 2014’s Puyo Puyo Tetris (which released on Wii U and 3DS in Japan) served as one of the very first games available for Nintendo’s then-fledgling hybrid.
It was arguably a ‘right place, right time’ moment for the crossover franchise, appealing to casual Tetris fans, puzzle game die-hards, and the massive influx of players just looking for more things to play on their shiny new system. Crucially, it helped reintroduce Puyo Puyo to the wider global market after a lengthy hiatus from localising the franchise.

Squid Game’s Battle of Beliefs: Stars and Director on Gi-Hun and In-ho Squaring Off in Season 3
The third and final season of Squid Game is almost here, and we were not only given a sneak peek at the first episode, but we also chatted with creator/director/writer Hwang Dong-hyuk and actors Lee Jung-jae, Lee Byung-hun, Park Sung-hoon, and Kang Ae-sim to find out what we can expect from the last episodes of the series.
Still reeling after the murder of his best friend Jung-bae (Lee Seo-hwan) and the seeming squashing of his rebellion movement, Gi-hun is despondent and alone in the barracks. Alone without resources, it begs the question, what do the orchestrators of the game want with Gi-hun as the series heads into its end game?

McGregor described the entire Long Way series as “a very, very important part of my life. The four trips we’ve done, we couldn’t have imagined when we started doing Long Way Round that it would lead to all of the places we’ve seen and all the people we’ve met and all of the experiences we’ve gone through together.
