Detroit: Become Human is the latest game from French studio Quantic Dream. Released back in 2018 for PS4 (and PC one year later), the story-focused title saw a mixed reception, with many loving it and others not so much. Despite this, the game has gone on to be a big success for the studio. While fans continue to wait for the studio’s Star Wars Eclipse, Detroit: Become Human has quietly been selling millions more copies – with the title having now surpassed 15 million units sold.

Making the announcement via LinkedIn, the official Quantic Dream page wrote: “We are proud to announce that Detroit: Become Human has surpassed 15 million units sold worldwide;” confirming that the title is now “Quantic Dream’s best-selling game to date.”

For context, Detroit: Become Human reached 8 million copies sold back in January of 2023. This then rose to 9 million by December of the same year – with the game hitting the 10 million mark in October of 2024. Finally, the most recent figures put the game at 11 million copies sold as of February 2025 – meaning it sold a further 4 million copies in less than a year.

Given the game’s relatively mixed reception, it is interesting to see Detroit: Become Human continuing to sell this well so many years later. That said, considering the fact that we are still waiting for the next project from Quantic Dream to be released, it is fortunate for them that the now 7 year old title is continuing to find millions of new players.

One of the biggest video game successes in recent years has been Larian Studios’ Baldur’s Gate 3. Released back in 2023, the RPG took the industry by storm, winning countless awards and selling over 20 million copies. With the Switch 2 launching last year, many have been hoping to see the RPG come to Nintendo’s platform at some point. Unfortunately, Larian have given a seemingly definitive answer.

As part of a recent AMA conducted by Larian Studios on Reddit, roughly a dozen developers from the studio were present to answer fan questions regarding Baldur’s Gate, Divinity or whatever else came to mind.

Responding to one user who asked “Baldur’s Gate 3 for Switch 2? Is it even possible?” Larain’s CEO Swen Vincke offered some disappointing yet interesting details, stating: “We would have loved to but it’s (sic) wasn’t our decision to make.”

Though we unfortunately did not get any further details, Vincke’s wording seems to suggest that the decision to not make a Switch 2 port came from higher-up the ladder – namely the D&D IP owners Wizards of the Coast / Hasbro.

Of course, that’s not to say that a port for Switch 2 could never happen. After all, money talks and assuming the IP owners think that a port of BG3 would make them more money then it could still materialise down the line – perhaps when the Switch 2 has further matured.

We will have to wait and see, but don’t expect Baldur’s Gate 3 to come to the Switch any time soon…if ever.

KitGuru says: Are you disappointed by this confirmation? Would the Switch 2 be able to handle BG3? Why do you think Hasbro / WotC said no? Let us know down below.

Following some slight teasers, Microsoft officially confirmed that they would be hosting their annual Xbox Developer Direct Showcase this month – with the stream set to go live on the 22nd of January. Said to focus on Forza Horizon 6, GameFreak’s Beast of Reincarnation and the highly-anticipated Fable reboot, the latter is reportedly planned to launch day-one on PS5 according to insiders.

In the lead-up to 2026’s Xbox Developer Direct, known industry insider Andy Robinson of VGC offered some early details on the upcoming showcase, claiming that the long-awaitied Fable will be announced as a day-one release for PS5 alongside its expected Xbox launch – stating:

“Fable is day and date (on PS5), that's what I've been told[…] I know they have been targeting PS5 for a while.”

Given that Forza Horizon 5 was only ported to PS5 relatively recently, there was not much of an expectation that its sequel would arrive day-and-date with the Xbox release. Even so, Robinson offered some additional details on this matter, claiming: “As for Forza the explanation I was told by someone who was there was it just wasn't ready.”

Between Forza and Fable, having the latter as a day-one release makes the most sense, not only due to the fact that Horizon 5 is still relatively new to the PS5 platform, but also due to the upcoming RPG likely needing as much help as it can get sales-wise (especially compared to Forza).

Regardless, we should hopefully learn all about these two upcoming titles when the Xbox Developer Direct goes live on the 22nd of January.

KitGuru says: Are you looking forward to the Direct? Which of the confirmed games are you most excited to learn more about? Would you rather Fable or Forza launch day-one across multiple platforms? Let us know down below.

While Steam is easily the biggest platform for gaming on the PC side of things, Valve’s storefront continues to find new players on a consistent basis. Just a few months on from their last major milestone, Steam has officially reached a new peak concurrent player count of over 42 million users.

As published by the tracking site SteamDB, Sunday the 11th of January saw Valve's platform reach a new milestone figure, with over 42 million users all online at the same time (42,042,778 to be exact).

As mentioned, this marks a notable increase over the previous record, which saw Steam hit 41 million back in October of last year. That said, the platform has been growing quite quickly for the past few years now, with it hitting 34 million concurrents for the first time back in March of 2024.

Since then, Steam seems to have been on a roll, with the platform hitting 36 million just a few weeks later; surpassing 37 million by August 2024 – and reaching 39 million by December.

While 2025 was slightly slower, we still saw record player numbers multiple times, with Steam hitting 40 million concurrents in March of 2025 and then 41 million by October.

Of course, concurrent users is but one metric which can be used to determine a service’s success – with daily active users, monthly active users and more being arguably more useful metrics. Still, having over 42 million people active on Steam at the exact same time is impressive. It will be curious to see whether the platform ever manages to reach 50 million concurrents.

KitGuru says: Were you online this past Sunday? Is concurrent players a useful metric? How long do you think it’ll take for the platform to hit 50 million? Let us know down below.

The Division is one of Ubisoft’s more interesting franchises. While the first game disappointed many due to a number of visual downgrades when compared to its pre-release materials, the series did find a dedicated audience who enjoyed the gameplay loop. That said, it’s now been almost 7 years since The Division 2’s launch and while fans await the previously-announced 3rd entry, Ubisoft have offered some slight teasers, claiming it to be “shaping up to be a monster.”

During the New Game+ Showcase, The Division 3’s executive producer Julian Gerighty offered an update on the long-awaited threequel.

While we did not get any footage of the title, according to Gerighty: “It’s shaping up to be a monster. I can’t really say anything more than that. But this is within these walls in Massive. We are working extremely hard on something that I think will be as big an impact as Division 1 was.”

As mentioned, while The Division as a series does have its problems, the first game did indeed make a big impact back in the day – especially in its pre-release period where the game served as a bit of a then-next-gen showpiece.

Given that we’ve seen nothing from The Division 3 yet, it is possible that Ubisoft are planning to line the title up with the next-gen PS6, which would make for quite a notable upgrade over 2019’s Division 2. Regardless, here’s to hoping that when The Division 3 is shown off that Ubisoft are more honest in their presentation of the title.

KitGuru says: Are you excited for The Division 3? How different do you expect it to be when compared to the previous two entries? Will it be a next-gen launch title? Let us know your thoughts down below.

While Obsidian Entertainment’s Avowed failed to live up to the high expectations which some fans had for the title upon its release last year, the Xbox console exclusive was a solid title in its own right – even if it wasn’t the Skyrim successor which many were hoping for. With updates to the game still planned for 2026, a PS5 port for Avowed has now been officially announced – set to launch exactly one year on from its Xbox release.

Announced during the recent New Game+ Showcase, Obsidian Entertainment’s Avowed has been officially confirmed to be launching on PlayStation 5 next month; arriving on the 17th of February 2026 (almost exactly one year on from its Xbox release).

Available to pre-order now for £39.99 (£49.99 for the Premium Edition), the PS5 release will arrive alongside the game’s long-awaited ‘Winter Update’ (which was initially planned to release late last year).

Now labelled as the Anniversary update, the patch is set to include the long awaited new game+ mode alongside a new weapon type; character presets; appearance modifiers; new races; a photo mode and more.

As mentioned, Avowed was a decent game in its own right though was held back due to fans expecting it to be the next Skyrim-like experience. With a pretty fun first-person magic combat system and solid exploration however, Avowed could be worth checking out when it launches on PS5 next month.

While 2015’s The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is beloved by many for a plethora of reasons, one of the game’ shining hallmarks is its excellent DLC, with the Blood and Wine expansion in particular considered by many to be worth the price of a full game on its own. Following surprise rumours in recent weeks stating that The Witcher 3 is set to get a 3rd expansion over a decade on from launch, additional insiders have corroborated the claims.

Following the surprise report from analysts ‘Noble Securities’ claiming that The Witcher 3 will be getting a 3rd expansion in the lead-up to the in-development Witcher 4, additional sources have corroborated the rumours.

Alongside IGN Poland, the publication PPE.PL (who have leaked unannounced projects in the past) confirmed the unexpected rumours, writing (as translated): “Our own sources tipped us off about a new Wild Hunt project a year ago. In the first half of 2025, we were explicitly told that The Witcher 3 would receive massive new content that fans “’will absolutely love.’”

Though PPE did not have any further details on exactly what this project will entail, it seems clear that a 3rd Witcher 3 expansion is in the works. Though purely speculation, it’s possible that as with Cyberpunk’s recent updates, this Witcher DLC could be being developed by an external studio.

With whispers suggesting that a release could be as soon as this year, here’s to hoping we won’t have to wait long to find out.

Obsidian Entertainment is perhaps one of the busiest studios under Microsoft, with the Fallout: New Vegas maker having worked on 6 different games since being purchased by the console maker back in 2018. Despite having just released Avowed; Grounded 2 (in Early Access) and The Outer Worlds 2 last year, Obsidian is reportedly working on 4 different unannounced projects right now.

In a report by known Xbox insider Jez Corden discussing the future of Microsoft’s console throughout 2026 and beyond, the leaker claimed that Obsidian Entertainment is currently working on “four new projects, some big some small.”

As mentioned, Obsidian Entertainment has been one of Xbox’s most consistent studios, having released 3 games just last year: Avowed in February; Grounded 2’s Early Access in July and The Outer Worlds 2 this past October.

While they are unlikely to match that output in 2026, its possible we could see two projects from the team between now and December – one of which being a tiny Pentiment-styled affair and the other perhaps being the recently rumoured Fallout: New Vegas remaster (though that is likely being handled by an external studio).

Regardless, it is exciting to see that Obsidian has plenty more currently cooking in the oven. While none of their recent releases have managed to reach the heights of New Vegas, it is nice to have a team which can produce solid products at a consistent rate.

Nintendo made a killing with the Switch’s Joy-Cons, not only due to their tendency to drift leading fans to purchase additional units, but also thanks to the console maker’s release of countless different controller colours allowing a degree of customisation when playing in handheld. Nintendo appears to be continuing the practice with Switch 2 – though with admittedly much duller offerings so far.

As shared to their Nintendo Today news app, the console maker officially unveiled their first new set of Joy-Con 2 colours for the Switch 2.

Said to be made available from the 12th of February for £74.99 a pair, fans will soon be able to get their hands on Light Purple / Light Green Joy-Cons to go alongside the default Red and Blue.

Unfortunately, as with the base Joy-Cons, the colours are limited to the dome under the thumbsticks and the magnetic rail – meaning the colours will be hardly noticeable when in handheld.

In addition, these Joy-Cons will not match the Switch 2’s siderail colours as they were based on the original Red and Blue – though this too is hardly noticeable (for the better this time).

Regardless, having more colour options is welcome to see, even if the current crop do little to make the console look different. Hopefully future releases include more all-encompassing colouring.

At the tail-end of last year, Microsoft casually confirmed that they would be hosting another edition of their annual Xbox Developer Direct this January. With January 2026 here, the console maker has now made the announcement official – confirming that Fable, Forza Horizon 6 and more will be shown off.

Making the announcement via their Xbox Wire blog, Editor-in-Chief Joe Skrebels officially confirmed the premiere date for their 2026 Developer Direct, writing: “2026 is going to be an incredible year for Xbox players – you might even call it a… fabled year. To celebrate, we’re kicking it off with the fourth installment of our Developer_Direct broadcast on January 22, bringing you news, new gameplay, and insights directly from the incredible teams working on titles coming this year.”

As with previous Directs, Microsoft is choosing to focus on a select number of titles, with this year’s headliners being:

• Fable
• Forza Horizon 6
• Beast of Reincarnation

Playground Games’ Forza Horizon 6 was previously announced to be present at this event and so its inclusion is not too shocking. That said, the fact that we will get to see more Fable is somewhat of a surprise given that it too is being developed at Playground Games (albeit by a different team).

For the uninitiated, Beast of Reincarnation is an impressive-looking action-RPG from GameFreak – the studio behind the Pokemon series. Looking unlike anything else the team has worked on previously, Beast of Reincarnation showcases what Game Freak is capable of, and so it will be highly interesting to learn more about this somewhat mysterious project.

Though only 3 titles were officially confirmed for the showcase, just like last year it seems a surprise game is planned to be shown off, with insider Shinobi602 stating “There's a ‘secret' fourth game.”

Regardless of whether there is a secret game or not, it will be exciting to learn more about Forza Horizon 6, Fable and Beast of Reincarnation in just a couple weeks’ time. The Xbox Developer Direct will go live on the 22nd of January at 6PM GMT.

Since the launch of the PlayStation 5 back in 2020, Sony has kept the console feeling fresh thanks to plenty of additional accessories and customisation options. Joining the line-up in 2026 is the PS5’s new Hyperpop Collection – featuring bright and colourful face plates and DualSense controllers.

Making the announcement via the PlayStation Blog, the VP of global marketing at SIE Isabelle Tomatis officially unveiled the Hyperpop Collection: Featuring three new striking designs for DualSense wireless controllers and PS5 console covers.”

With a shiny/glossy finish complimented by a mix of bright colours transitioning into black, the Hyperpop collection is perhaps one of the PS5’s best-looking after-market accessories yet – second only to their ‘Chroma’ series.

The PS5 Hyperpop Collection is available in 3 colours (Techno Red, Remix Green, Rhythm Blue) and will be pre-orderable from the 16th of January – with shipping commencing from the 12th of March.

Additional details on the new console covers and DualSense controllers can be found HERE.

In the wake of last year’s highly-successful The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, we began to hear an increasing number of leaks and rumours suggesting that Fallout 3 would be next in line to receive such a treatment. Though yet to be officially confirmed, insiders have claimed that not only is Fallout 3 set to get a remaster, but the much-loved New Vegas too.

As claimed by known Xbox insider Jez Corden via Windows Central, “we are eventually getting a Fallout 3 remake in the vein of Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.”

This far from surprising given both the success of Oblivion Remastered and the fact that a Fallout 3 remaster was leaked by Microsoft themselves back in 2023. What is more interesting however is that according to Corden the much-loved Fallout: New Vegas is also set to receive a similar treatment.

While Fallout 3 has plenty of fans, New Vegas in particular has come to be known as one of the best RPGs of all time and so it getting a remaster in particular would be exciting indeed.

That said, while the Oblivion remaster was received warmly, it suffers from plenty of performance issues owing in part to its Unreal Engine 5 layer. Assuming Fallout 3 and New Vegas will be handled in the same way, here’s to hoping that more time is dedicated to making the experience a smooth one – though this might be asking too much from Bethesda.
