Summer Game Fest 2026 – Everything Announced and Revealed

Summer Game Fest has come to an end, and, as expected, the event was rich in happenings - in particular, announcements and showcases of new gameplay trailers. Did it become the biggest in history, as its host Geoff Keighley claimed? That is something everyone will decide for themselves. Either way, below you will find everything that was announced and shown at Summer Game Fest.

Resident Evil: Veronica

The show began with a major announcement—an announcement that had long been rumored. Capcom officially confirmed a remake of Resident Evil Code: Veronica, which will be called Resident Evil: Veronica. They showed a spectacular trailer featuring Claire Redfield visiting Paris in search of her brother, Chris. The game's release is scheduled for 2027. Unfortunately, there is still no footage of a story DLC for Resident Evil Requiem, but it wasn’t Capcom's last announcement at the show.

New Cuphead Video Game and Mighty Cuphead Adventure

Studio MDHR made several announcements related to Cuphead universe. Firstly, the developers confirmed that they are working on a new installment of the series but are not yet ready to share the details. However, the debut trailer for Mighty Cuphead Adventure—an 8-bit spinoff of the franchise—was shown. The release dates for both projects are still unknown.

Alien Isolation 2

Last month, SEGA and Creative Assembly shared the first teaser for Alien Isolation 2, but the release of the official trailer did not take long. The second installment, judging by the first look, took all the best from the original, but the trailer also showed noticeable and more open land areas. The game will be released on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2, but the release date has not yet been revealed.

Gen Atlas

Then at the show there was a presentation of a new project by Fumito Ueda - the creator of hits such as Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian. His new game, titled Gen Atlas, is a third-person shooter with robots and deserts. The game will be released on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, but the release date is still unknown.

Blood Message

NetEase showed footage from their new single-player project called Blood Message, which impresses with its detail, graphics, and combat system. The game's plot is based on Chinese history, and the development is handled by the studio 24 Entertainment Lin'an. The game will be released on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5, and the release date remains unknown.

Stranger Than Heaven

And here is the game that received a release date—it's Stranger Than Heaven, from RGG Studio. The game will be released on January 15 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. As is known, rap artist Snoop Dogg will play one of the main characters, Orpheus, but he is not the only real-life musician in Stranger Than Heaven. At the end of the trailer shown at Summer Game Fest, none other than Tupac Shakur appeared, which was quite unexpected news.

HAEX

The Swedish studio Dead Astronauts has announced its debut game titled HAEX - a 4-player cooperative shooter where players will take on the role of scientific researchers and deal with anomalies occurring in a strange location filled with mysterious creatures. So far, the game is confirmed only for PC and will be released next year.

Dead by Daylight

On the occasion of Dead by Daylight's upcoming tenth anniversary, an unusual video titled 'Don't Blink' was published. So far, it is hard to guess what it could be, but the presence of many balloons may tease at the appearance of Pennywise from the It movies based on Stephen King's books.

Mortal Shell II

Cold Symmetry announced the start of the open beta testing of Mortal Shell II on PC, the full release of which will take place later this year, including on consoles.

Sand Raiders of Sophie

TMNT: The Last Ronin

One of the biggest surprises at Summer Game Fest was the announcement from Paramount Games Studios, which was announced shortly before the start of the show —but it was not specified what kind of game it would be. It turned out that PlatinumGames, the creators of Bayonetta and Nier: Automata, are making a game based on TMNT: The Last Ronin. Unfortunately, we were shown nothing except the debut teaser, but this is one of the most intriguing projects to date.

Fortnite

It was not without news regarding Fortnite. In particular, gameplay of the upcoming season called Runners was shown, which is closely intertwined with the in-game event SHATTERED.
