«Dragonball Xenoverse 3» - the last work by Akira Toriyama

Fans of the «Xenoverse» games have had to wait over ten years, but now the time has finally come: Bandai Namco has announced a new spin-off, «Xenoverse 3». This was already teased at the beginning of the year with the ominous «Age 1000» video.

Bittersweet for fans: the title is the last work on which the late Akira Toriyama worked. It is said to feature new characters as well as locations penned by the legendary «Dragon Ball» creator.

«Corsair Cove» - create your pirate paradise

You want more pirates? You can have them, yaaarrrrrr! In «Corsair Cove» you build your own pirate cove. You build houses, ships and factories to satisfy your drunken band of pirates. But beware - hostile pirates want to steal your pirate paradise. What I particularly like about the trailer are the crazy island layouts. The pirate settlements do not extend over flat areas, but spread out upwards. The suspension bridges and observation towers at dizzying heights look anything but safe.

Date: 2026
Released for: PC

«Wall World Strategy» - that's the sense of the wall!

In this real-time strategy game, you build and command an alien colony. The twist: the colony is built on a vertical wall. The verticality is not just a visual gimmick, but also has an effect on the gameplay.

Do you remember Nintendo's «Wave Race» games? «Tokyo Wave Rush» looks like eine Kopie a spiritual successor to the legendary water racing game series. Visually, the trailer is a double-edged sword.

My love of video games was unleashed at the tender age of five by the original Gameboy. Over the years, it's grown in leaps and bounds.
