Capcom’s been busy, and during their latest Capcom Spotlight, they came out swinging with updates on three highly anticipated titles. From a return to Raccoon City, to a haunting lunar adventure, and finally, a look at the wildest hunt yet — here’s a quick breakdown of everything that went down:

Resident Evil Requiem – Back to Raccoon City, Again

Coming February 27, 2026, Resident Evil Requiem is the ninth mainline title in the legendary survival horror franchise — and it’s shaping up to be one of the most immersive entries yet.

Developed using Capcom’s RE ENGINE, Requiem puts players back in the middle of Raccoon City, mixing the haunting atmosphere of psychological horror with the series’ signature action. What’s new this time around? A real-time switch between first-person and third-person views, a fresh new lead named Grace Ashcroft, and a central theme focused on what the devs call “addictive fear.”

Capcom also released a video message from the dev team along with brand-new gameplay footage — so if you’re itching to see the game in action, check it out here.

Launching on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam
Release Date: February 27, 2026

PRAGMATA – A Sci-Fi Mystery Wrapped in Puzzles and Action

Originally teased a while back, Capcom finally gave us a much deeper look at PRAGMATA, their all-new sci-fi action-adventure title now slated for release in 2026.

Set in a mysterious lunar facility, the game follows the story of Hugh Williams, a systems auditor turned survivor, and Diana, an android girl crafted entirely from “Lunafilament” — a moon-mined material that can replicate matter.

Gameplay is a mix of third-person gunplay and puzzle-based hacking mechanics. You’ll switch between shooting enemies as Hugh and controlling Diana as she hacks into security systems and enemy bots. The hacking system even features a minigame where players must draw paths to break armor and expose enemy weak points.

The two protagonists have to navigate eerie 3D-printed environments, solve puzzles, and figure out how to escape the moon after a lunar quake wrecks the facility. Think of it as Capcom’s answer to Dead Space meets Portal, but with its own surreal, tech-driven twist.

Monster Hunter Wilds – Wild, Wiser, and More Cinematic Than Ever

Capcom capped things off with fresh updates on Monster Hunter Wilds, the next evolution in the Monster Hunter series — and it’s living up to the hype.

This time, it’s all about deeper world storytelling and a more emotionally involved experience. Returning characters like Alma, Gemma, and Nata will appear as part of a fully voiced story (with facial animations and expressive cutscenes — even during quests).

Players can expect:

A seamless open world with shifting weather and ecosystems
New monsters with smarter AI
Enhanced traversal mechanics
And more co-op moments that feel cinematic, not chaotic

Monster Hunter Wilds will also be part of the Capcom showcase at gamescom 2025.

Release Window: 2025
Platforms: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam

Let me know if you’d like shorter versions for social or a recap fit for a script.

Anno 117: Pax Romana is available now for PC, consoles

As we discovered during a preview of the game, Anno 117 might be one of the coziest strategic simulators today. The new title does away with the intensity of pure combat to have players build up their version of Rome as an inexperienced politician thrust into the role of a Roman governor. Now, after the brief preview period, Anno 117: Pax Romana is available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

While other simulators might have its players build an army to overwhelm everyone by force, Anno 117 has players build up their corner of Rome from the ground up.

For both beginners and veterans of the series, the game has a lengthy campaign mode to teach players the ropes of the new title. Specifically, the campaign features two character paths: Marcus — a young man desperately trying to earn his place in the aristocracy — and Marcia — Marcus’s sister who wants to prove that women can also forge their destiny in Rome.

Otherwise, the title also has a sandbox mode that has player pick between two starting areas. Latium is a safer option that offers safety near the heart of the Roman Empire. Meanwhile, Albion is a wilder province that provides seasoned players with more challenges.

The Standard Edition of the game is already available on Steam, Ubisoft Connect, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

On the other hand, the Gold Edition bundles the base game with the Year 1 Pass. This Pass includes three DLCs coming down the line: Prophecies of Ash, The Hippodrome, and Dawn of the Delta.

Red Dead Redemption is coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2

The game is also coming to mobile and Netflix.

Ahead of Grand Theft Auto VI, Rockstar Games is giving the original Red Dead Redemption some time under the spotlight with newer machinery. The studio previously launched a remastered version for the PC, finally breaking its exclusivity to older consoles. Now, in less than a month, the gunslinging RPG is coming to even more modern consoles.

Red Dead Redemption is seen as one of the most important RPGs in history. Besides its tragic story, the game introduced Rockstar’s iconic open-world formula to a setting that, at the time, hadn’t been portrayed adequately in games. The series has since spawned an equally impressive sequel for the PlayStation 4 generation.

On December 2, Rockstar Games is bringing the original Red Dead Redemption, along with spinoff DLC Undead Nightmare, to more consoles. After beginning its remastered stint for PC, the game is now coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and mobile devices.

The version for modern consoles will get the same 60fps treatment as its counterpart on PC. It will also support HDR. Meanwhile, the Switch 2 version gets support for DLSS and mouse controls.

Importantly, those who already own the original game on older consoles (via backwards compatibility on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Switch) will get a free upgrade to the remastered version.

For mobile, the game will have an ergonomic control system. Also, Netflix subscribers will get the game for free with their subscription.

If you have yet to play one of the most important titles of the past two decades, now is your chance to enjoy the experience on newer hardware.
