Sony has highlighted the performance of PlayStation 5 exclusive Ghost of Yotei, insisting it outsold predecessor Ghost of Tsushima during the same period, and made a “significant” contribution to its financial results.
Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Yotei went on sale October 2, 2025, and sold 3.3 million units as of November 2 (at the 32 day mark). Reporting its financials for the quarter ending December 31, 2025, Sony failed to provide an updated sales figure, but did highlight the game in its webcast, reviewed and transcribed by IGN.
“In the studio business, Ghost of Yotei, a tentpole title we released in October, exceeded the sales of the previous title in the same period of time and significantly contributed to the financial results of the quarter,” Lin Tao, Sony’s chief financial officer, said.
“Our established live service titles like Helldivers 2 and MLB The Show also contributed stable recurring revenue.”
The statement here is a little vague (we assume “same period of time” reflects each game’s first quarter on sale, which would be the first three months of availability), but Sony sounds happy with Ghost of Yotei either way. How exactly does it compare to Ghost of Tsushima? Ghost of Tsushima, which was initially released for PlayStation 4 on July 17, 2020, sold 2.4 million copies in its first three days, then hit 5 million after 118 days (just shy of four months). Latest sales figures provided by Sony show Ghost of Tsushima on 13 million copies sold, including sales of the PC and PS5 Director’s Cut, as of August 11, 2024.
We should consider that Ghost of Tsushima came out on the PS4, which in the summer of 2020 had a much bigger install base than the PS5 does today, and released into the stay-at-home gaming boom fueled by lockdowns. Ghost of Yotei also sold for $70, which means its dollar sales are greater compared to the cheaper Ghost of Tsushima, whose standard edition launched at $60.
Meanwhile, multiplayer add-on Ghost of Yotei: Legends comes out at some point this year, which will undoubtedly give Ghost of Yotei a shot in the arm. And we all know that Ghost of Yotei, like Ghost of Tsushima before it, will eventually launch on PC in Director’s Cut form. Perhaps there will even be a PS6 version, whenever that console rolls around.

Overwatch 2 is officially ditching the “2” from its name. It’s all just Overwatch now as the game enters a “new, story-driven era” with a year-long narrative, 10 new heroes, and a major overhaul.
Announced today at the Overwatch Spotlight, Blizzard revealed its first year-long storyline, entitled “The Reign of Talon”. As it sounds, the plot is going to focus on the antagonistic faction Talon as it takes over around the world, while Overwatch continues to fight back. In-game events, hero trailers, animated comics, short stories, and map updates will tell a story across six seasons rolled out throughout the entire year, beginning with the launch of five new heroes on February 10 as Season 1 begins. On the Talon side, new heroes will include Domina (tank), Emre (damage), and Mizuki (support), and on Overwatch we’ll get Anran (damage) and Jetpack Cat (support). More heroes will join in the future, with a new hero added in each of Season 2-6 to come. A new story arc is planned to begin with another Season 1 in 2027.
Other updates include a new Meta Event called Conquest, where players choose to align with either Overwatch or Talon over five weeks to compete for rewards including lootboxes, skins, and titles. We’ll also be seeing a major UI and UX overhaul with a new hero lobby and a promise of faster navigation. And we’re also getting a Hello Kitty-themed in-game event from February 10-23.
Amid all of this, Blizzard is officially dropping the “2” from Overwatch 2, and referring to it going forward just as Overwatch. As a press release explains: “Overwatch is more than just a digit: it’s a living universe that keeps growing, keeps surprising, and keeps bringing players together from around the world. This year marks a huge turning point in how the development team envisions the future of Overwatch, so we are officially dropping ‘2’ and moving forward as ‘Overwatch’.”
The newly-dubbed “Overwatch” will also be getting an upgraded Nintendo Switch 2 edition in the spring (both the original Overwatch and Overwatch 2 are currently available on Nintendo Switch, and thus Switch 2, but do not have dedicated Switch 2 upgraded versions).
Overwatch 2, or I guess as I should call it now, Overwatch, is about to get a massive overhaul as it enters the year-long storyline entitled The Reign of Talon. With the big update coming on February 10, players will get five new heroes (with five more coming over the rest of the season), a number of quality of life updates, new in-game events, and later this spring, an upgrade option for Nintendo Switch 2 players specifically.
Announced during today’s Overwatch Spotlight 2026, it was revealed that a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of Overwatch 2 is finally on its way later this spring. We didn’t get any real details as to what the release was going to entail as of yet. Overwatch 2 is already on the Nintendo Switch and thus playable on Switch 2, but it’s just the regular edition, and a Switch 2 would presumably have some upgrades attached. We’ll have to wait until Season 2 sometime this spring to find out.
This will be welcome news for Switch players, as there have long been complaints that Overwatch 2 on the Nintendo Switch offers no meaningful technical improvements over the original Overwatch. A Switch 2 edition could also potentially introduce mouse controls, which might be desirable for those wanting something closer to a PC experience.
Overwatch 2 will now be known as just Overwatch going forward, as was also announced during today’s Overwatch Spotlight, as the game undergoes a major overhaul headed into a year-long narrative of events, hero trailers, stories, comics, map updates, and more telling the story of a Talon takeover. Ten new heroes are planned for release over the next year, with a new story arc planned to start in 2027 when this one has concluded.

David Jaumandreu and I are supposed to be having our interview about his upcoming game, Denshattack, in a studio built out to look like a train. And we will, eventually, as you’ll see from the video above. But before we shoot the video version, we chat for my written piece in a very different setting: a dungeon.
Jaumandreu is sitting on an inexplicable throne, like you’d find in a king’s palace, while I sit atop a different sort of throne: an actual toilet. There are fake shackles against the stone walls around us, and bars on the window. Behind us, through a sliding door, is the train studio we’ll be using in 30 minutes.
I don’t have a clever way to transition Jaumandreu and my dungeon adventure into something about Denshattack!, or even trains. But Jaumandreu is effusive about the silly setting we’re in. He has every reason to be happy right now: he’s in his favorite place in the world, after all.
No, I don’t mean the dungeon. I’m talking about Japan.
Jaumandreu has traveled halfway around the world to promote his upcoming game: Denshattack!, which he describes as “Tony Hawk with Japanese trains.” He’s leading its development as the studio director of Undercoders, which was founded in 2005 in Barcelona. It began as a mobile development studio and eventually transitioned to DSi development and later to console with games like Conga Master and Treasures of the Aegean. The core team is just 12 people, even a whopping 20 years after its founding, though Jaumandreu says they do work with external developers on things such as music and animation when support is needed.
So what’s a Barcelonan studio doing making a game that’s hyperspecifically focused on Japanese trains? Put simply, Jaumandreu loves Japan, and he loves the train system there. That’s the long and short of it.
“I came [to Japan] in ’98 for the first time,” he tells me, speaking from the throne. “I came just for tourism. My father used to travel a lot for work, so I had the opportunity to follow him on one of his trips here, and it captivated me so much that I just wanted to come back again and again and again.”
Jaumandreu was 16 on that first trip – he’s a few decades older now, and has been back to Japan almost yearly since that first trip.
“There’s so much to like,” he continues. “When I came here, it was obviously because I was a kid. I loved Dragon Ball, I loved video games, you know? And back then, Japan was the biggest force in making video games. Nintendo, PlayStation, whatever. But I came through this fascination, and then got fascinated by the country itself. Its history, it’s super interesting, its culture. Whenever you get to know it more, there are more layers of interesting stuff to get. The cinema is fantastic, the food is incredible. Pop culture. No, it’s a mix of a lot of things, and whenever you get deeper into the country, you find more interesting stuff. So of course the first time I got here was Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto. Then you start exploring more the rural side, and that’s what it started to get to me.”
Of course, Jaumandreu especially loves Japan’s train system. He rode the subway on his first visit, the Yamanote line that runs in a circle through Tokyo’s biggest areas. At the time, trains in Japan didn’t have any English voices on the intercom or English words on the signs, so all he had to go on was his guidebook for navigation. “It felt like a big adventure.” Especially, he says, compared to trains in Barcelona, which were good but not nearly as advanced technologically. “To put it in perspective, back when I came here, the difference was it was like looking 20 years in the future, and now we’ve kind of reached that point, I guess.”
Then, Jaumandreu got to ride the Shinkansen, the bullet train, and he was blown away. “It’s incredibly fast and silent at the same time, so it feels super calm, and you’re going so fast. It feels, I don’t know, discontextualized. The incredible speed that you’re going, and it doesn’t move or shake or whatever. It’s a super smooth ride. It’s super comfortable.”
It was out of this love that Denshattack! Was born. One day, Jaumandreu says, he was playing with a little toy train he had, and the ideas began to flow.
“I was, you know, finger skating with a train. Like you’re bored. And I was doing this and that. I was like, ‘Whoa, this is cool. We could make a game out of this.’ I started thinking about it and giving a lot of thought to how that would translate into gameplay. And I used to skate, and I’m big fan of the Tony Hawk games especially, and it was like, ‘How would you do this? How would you control this?’ So yeah, I brought a train piece to work, started showing the team some moves, and then I presented to the rest of the team and they told me, ‘They’re shit.’ ‘Are you crazy?’ And then [my coworker] who is super fast in Unreal, I think he spent couple of days with that and he came out and said, ‘There’s definitely a game here. It’s super fun.’”
Denshattack! has been in development now for three years. It’s visually inspired by Jet Set Radio, Hi-Fi Rush, and Persona, and set to music by Sonic Mania’s Tee Lopes. In it, you control a train as if you were controlling a skateboard, where the landscape, cities, and other landmarks become a skate park. Jaumandreu describes gameplay in two parts: there’s a “flow state” gameplay where you’re focused on getting from point A to B, doing tricks and avoiding derailing as you go. And then there are missions where you’ll race rivals, try to get a high score from doing tricks, or even fight bosses like giant mechs. And Denshattack! combines all this with a Shonen anime story about found family, rebellion, and making friends with your rivals.
As we wrap up our interview and prepare to move out of the dungeon and into the train studio to record, I ask Jaumandreu one last, critical question. What’s his favorite ekiben, or train bento box?
He starts to say his favorite is the ones that self-heat when you pull a little tab out. But then he brings up an even more apropos answer: he likes the kid’s meals, because they come in a box shaped like a train.
Denshattack! is planned for release in spring 2026 for PC, Xbox Series (including on Game Pass), and PlayStation.

Alongside those three games, you’ll get five more as part of this bundle, which costs just $14.99 per month when you sign up for the Humble Choice membership. That’s not all, though, as you also get a free month of IGN Plus as part of this bundle. It’s a real treat for PC gamers, so don’t miss out on this month’s excellent selection of games.
If Resident Evil Village has caught your eye, particularly if you’re counting down the days to Requiem, it’s worth noting we’re big fans. Back when it was first released, our review from IGN’s Tristan Ogilvie called it “a genuinely engrossing and increasingly combat-heavy continuation of the Ethan Winters story.”
SteamWorld Build is another pick from this list we enjoyed. Our review from writer Jon Bolding said it’s a “simple but fun city builder cleverly combined with a dungeon-constructing miner that keeps things quick and casual.” It certainly seems like a nice variety of games in this bundle you’ll get to add to your library.
There’s plenty of other perks you’ll get to enjoy as a Humble Choice member as well. Alongside the new selection of games to choose from each month, you’ll also save up to 20% on select games in the Humble Store, and 5% of your membership goes to a charity every month, which is NPower for February.
On top of that, the month of IGN Plus is a nice bonus alongside the games, offering you a chance to give it a test run for free. With this, you’ll be able to get rid of ads on the site, enjoy free games, and more.

Fresh from starring in the new Super Mario Galaxy Movie trailer, Yoshi is headed to Nintendo Switch Online today.
Mario’s ridable dinosaur pal arrives via Switch Online in the form of his item-matching Game Boy puzzle title that’s simply named “Yoshi.” Originally released in 1991, the classic game is available again today for Switch Online subscribers.
Also available today is Balloon Kid, the side-scrolling platformer where you can collect balloons to aid in your jumping and hovering. It was first available in 1990, some 36 years ago.
#NintendoSwitchOnline members can now play these two classic #GameBoy titles on Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch!
If you have access to the Japanese Nintendo Switch Online app, it’s worth noting that the addition of Balloon Kid is substituted with the arrival of Balloon Fight GB — a separate title with a more obscure history. Released only in Japan for the Game Boy Color, this title is a souped-up version of the original NES Balloon Fight that never made it across to the West. The game then later arrived on 3DS via its Virtual Console, though again only in Japan.
Nintendo recently featured Yoshi as the star of its latest Super Mario Galaxy Movie trailer, which showed Mario and Luigi befriending the dinosaur and quickly welcoming it to their gang of heroes. Yoshi is expected to play a major role in the upcoming Super Mario Movie sequel following a cameo appearance (really, just Yoshi’s egg) at the end of the prior film.
While The Super Mario Galaxy Movie launches in theaters on April 1, Yoshi’s retro appearance on Game Boy is available to play again via Switch and Switch 2 now.

Yesterday, Bloomberg reported on the state of veteran RPG studio Obsidian following an exhausting 2025. Over the course of eight months, the company launched Grounded 2 in early access, followed by both The Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed after protracted developments.
Of the three games, only Grounded 2 was qualified as a success — and while further titles in the Avowed universe are planned, a third Outer Worlds title is not in production. Unsurprisingly, this news has disappointed fans of the space-based role-playing game series, who have offered their own opinions on what went wrong.
“I feel like TOW2 paid for the sins of TOW 1 and Avowed,” Godlike013 wrote in a lengthy thread on The Outer World’s main subreddit, suggesting that The Outer Worlds 2 had deserved a better reception. “After two mid games in a row negative sentiment unfairly fell on TOW2 when it is a genuinely good game.”
“I’ll be honest, it’s not surprising in the least,” countered Lafitte1812. “TOW2 is, in every possible way a better game. It’s a night and day difference, and most of my problems have been fixed, but at the end of the day I still don’t really give a damn about the universe, and positive word of mouth alone is only so impactful.”
“I’m not surprised,” agreed CardTrickOTK. “I think it was better than the first in a lot of ways, but when BG3 drops and lets you do some frankly insane things with the companions, I think a lot of people had their standards raised for RPGs, and this game is just okay.”
Several other fans noted the recent launch of other RPGs — and particularly 2025’s beloved Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 — as having provided tough competition and even tougher comparisons in some areas such as story and fully-fleshed out characters. Others suggested that the lengthy wait for The Outer Worlds 2 had also raised expectations, which were not met by the sequel.
“The first game was incredible but lacked content,” wrote RUKnight31. “We excused that due to limited budget and dev time for a new franchise. Given the increased resources and development time that went into OW2 we expected to have a lot more content than OW. It didn’t and the obvious ‘business decisions’ that led to chopped content sucked to see.”
A larger number of fans expressed frustration at Microsoft for the game’s pricing fiasco, which initially saw The Outer Worlds 2 set to become the company’s first $80 game — before the company put the initiative on pause and backtracked. While the game ultimately launched at $70, fans say that the snafu dominated headlines and killed hype that the game struggled to win back. Some even pointed out the irony of the situation happening to The Outer Worlds 2, a game which tells the story of people caught up in the actions of megacorporation.
“So capitalism was the true villain all along,” QQBearsHijacker quipped.
“They overshot asking $80 and that turned a lot of gamers off,” RUKnight31 continued. “The backtrack to $70 was too little too late. In this economy $60-$70 is already a lot. Trying to push $80 as the new norm was outlandish for leisure.”
“Did not help at all that the biggest splash this game made on the overall gaming lake was the stupid 80 bucks fiasco that Microsoft tried to push,” agreed ElGodPug. “Like, even after they reduced to 70 (still too much IMO), first impressions are pretty important, and to many it was ‘oh hey, it’s the sequel to that 7/10 game asking us to pay 20 bucks more’.”
“There were a lot of great RPGs this year and unfortunately this one was forgettable,” Philosophers-Bone bluntly summed up. “Not horrible or anything, just didn’t stand out. I’m glad I played it on Game Pass and didn’t shell out $80 or whatever insane price they listed it for.”
IGN’s The Outer Worlds 2 review returned an 8/10, and stated that “once you get past a weak first act, The Outer Worlds 2 sharpens Obsidian’s RPG formula with smarter writing and better combat.” We continued: “[It] doesn’t try to rewrite Obsidian’s RPG playbook, but it’s yet another strong refinement.”

Nintendo has discussed the fact that Switch 2 hardware sales were lower than expected outside Japan towards the end of 2025.
Speaking to shareholders this week, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa acknowledged that “overseas sales were slightly weaker than our expectations,” something that had previously been reported and discussed with IGN by analysts, though not stated out loud by the company itself.
Still, in an investor meeting following the release of this week’s latest financial earnings, Nintendo shareholders repeatedly questioned the company on its western sales shortfall, even as the Switch 2 overperforms within its homeland of Japan.
“While our forecasted global hardware and software sales volume remains unchanged, the breakdown by region and product is based on different assumptions from the revised forecast announced at the time of our second-quarter financial results announcement,” Furukawa said, via machine translation.
“Furthermore, as you understand, domestic hardware sales volume exceeded our expectations, while overseas sales were slightly weaker than our expectations,” he continued.
Sales figures collated by The Game Business last month showed that U.S. Switch 2 sales over the holiday period were down around 35% versus the Switch 1’s first holiday sales performance back in 2017. In the UK, a similar comparison saw Switch 2 lagging Switch 1 by 16%. Even in Nintendo’s homeland of Japan, Switch 2 holiday sales couldn’t match Switch 1, and were down by 5.5% over the year’s final nine weeks.
In France, 2025’s final tally of Switch 2 sales was down by “over 30%” versus the amount Switch 1 notched up back in 2017, meanwhile.
While these numbers may take some of the shine off of a successful first year for Switch 2 overall, it’s not all doom and gloom. Switch 2’s lifetime sales in Japan are still above what Switch 1 managed in its first year, with less time on sale. And in the UK, Switch 1 continued to sell well enough that it made up Switch 2’s holiday sales deficit.
Asked for more detail on why hardware sales in Japan were doing better than expected, Furukawa has now highlighted the release of two games in particular that had resonated with the country’s audience: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Nintendo Switch 2 Edition and the Switch 2 exclusive Kirby Air Riders.
“We believe that the reason for the stronger-than-expected hardware sales in Japan is that, amid the continued momentum of the initial launch of the Switch 2 hardware, new titles such as Pokémon Legends: Z-A Nintendo Switch 2 Edition and Kirby Air Riders, released during the holiday shopping season, [leading] to a relatively high trend of existing Switch owners switching to the Switch 2 compared to overseas.”
While the Pokémon franchise is hugely popular globally, it enjoys a particular level of devotion within Japan. Kirby games also sell especially well in the country, with mixed success historically overseas. Essentially, then, Furukawa is suggesting that the Switch 2’s level of success in Japan has been fuelled by two titles that have resonated particularly well with Japanese audiences.
It’s a statement that gels well with what a recent, unnamed western Nintendo source reportedly said of the company’s softer Switch 2 sales overseas, which were blamed on the lack of a key first-party game for the holidays. The remark raised eyebrows at the time due to the fact it appeared to overlook Metroid Prime 4: Beyond (as Metroid Prime has traditionally been seen as a sub-franchise with a stronger western following than in Japan). However, as we learned this week, Metroid Prime 4 has indeed gotten off to a slow start sales-wise, something Nintendo appeared to have anticipated to some degree.
Overall, Switch 2 remains Nintendo’s fastest-selling console at launch ever, with an explosive arrival propelled by the recent success of the original Switch (something it, in turn, didn’t have as it followed Wii U). But all eyes will be on Nintendo now to shore up its line-up of Switch 2 games for the rest of 2026 — when fans hope they’ll finally get a new 3D Mario platformer in time for Christmas.
Upcoming first-party Switch 2 games include Mario Tennis Fever (February 12), Pokémon Pokopia (March 5), Super Mario Bros. Wonder Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park (March 26), Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream (April 16), and Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, which has a vague “spring” launch window. Simply listed for 2026 are Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave, Rhythm Heaven Groove and Pokémon Champions, while Splatoon Raiders has a “TBA” launch date.

Borderlands 4 publisher Take-Two has said that development on the game’s Switch 2 version is officially now on “pause” following its last-minute delay.
A Switch 2 port for the Gearbox looter shooter was initially announced during Nintendo’s big April 2025 Direct and then pegged to arrive on October 3, 2025, before its release was scrubbed just a week prior to launch. Pre-orders were cancelled, though Gearbox framed the move as a delay, not a full scrapping of the project.
Indeed, the developer said it hoped to “align” its Switch 2 release with the addition of cross saves to the game — something which now seems to no longer be on the cards.
Speaking to Variety this week, a Take-Two spokesperson has said that work on Borderlands 4’s Switch 2 edition was no longer ongoing, as Gearbox prioritized continued “improvements” to the game on its existing platforms.
It’s a curious situation, not least because the game’s Switch 2 version got so close to release, and had been played publicly in demo form at various events last year, such as at Gamescom 2025 in Cologne. Opinion on the game’s Switch 2 demo was mixed, though Borderlands 4 has also suffered from technical issues even on the more powerful PlayStation 5 Pro and Xbox Series X. The game’s Steam review rating has also suffered from negative comments regarding its PC performance, too.
“We made the difficult decision to pause development on that SKU,” Take-Two spokesperson Alan Lewis told Variety this week. “Our focus continues to be delivering quality post-launch content for players on the ongoing improvements to optimize the game.
“We’re continuing to collaborate closely with our friends at Nintendo. We have PGA Tour 2K25 coming out and WWE 2K26 [for Switch 2], and we’re incredibly excited about bringing more of our titles to that platform in the future.”
Earlier this month, a countdown appeared on the official Amazon website designed to look like a Fallout map. On it are locations in the Fallout map style which, when accessed, lead you to behind-the-scenes information on the show. For example, The Vault 33 outer door, from which Lucy first steps foot into the wasteland, is on the south of the map. The Caswennan, the airship that serves as a soaring fortress for the Brotherhood of Steel, is to the east. And, ahead of the debut of the Fallout Season 2 finale, in the top right was a locked point of interest alongside a timer pointing to February 4.
That got some fans’ hopes up that the countdown was leading to the reveal of the heavily rumored Fallout 3 Remastered, or the equally heavily rumored Fallout: New Vegas Remastered. It turned out to be neither. Instead, it’s yet another interactive node, this time for ‘The Penthouse’ at the top of the Lucky 38 casino, the lair of antagonist Mr. House.
“Once the private domain of Mr. House, it overlooks the Strip with a commanding view of New Vegas, equal parts luxury suite and control center,” reads the official description. “Step back in time to this intersection of decadence and authority!”
Clicking through leads you to a 3D interactive representation of the Penthouse, which includes a short video interview with Mr. House actor Justin Theroux about the genuinely impressive set, photos of the Strip, and even a creature gallery. This is all great if you’re after some extra Fallout information, but not the best if you’d hoped for a new Fallout game. In truth, some had suspected this would be the case. At best, some had said, it would contain a tease for Season 3 of the show.
In a recent interview with IGN, we asked Bethesda development chief Todd Howard if the success of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, which has seen over 4 million players since it shadowdropped last year, was a repeatable trick for a Fallout 3 Remastered. Howard kept his cards close to his chest, and reiterated a point he’s been making a lot in interviews lately.
“I will just say that the Oblivion Remaster, we’re really, really pleased with how well it did, it was a very long project too, and not just in how it was received, the ability to shadowdrop it, and the response to doing that,” he said. “I like to do that with games as much as possible. I love the moment that you find out about a game.”
The last mainline single-player Fallout game was Fallout 4, which came out in 2015 and recently saw the release of its Anniversary Edition. The multiplayer focused Fallout 76 followed in 2018, and while fans slowly flocked to the West Virginia-set open-world RPG, it wasn’t until the premiere of Prime Video’s Fallout TV show that the Bethesda series leveled up in terms of attention.
