Minecraft Dungeons 2 Review

Minecraft Dungeons 2 is developed by Mojang and Double Eleven, published by Xbox Game Studios and Mojang. It is available on Xbox Series X/S, PC, and PS5, with a release date of September 29, 2026, priced at £24.99. The game serves as an accessible introduction to the action RPG genre, targeting younger audiences, particularly Minecraft fans. It features a semi-open-world structure, allowing exploration of various areas, but the main quest line and side quests can be completed in approximately seven to ten hours. Combat mechanics are straightforward, with rapid loot acquisition and a system that can frustrate players due to hidden stats. The narrative involves ill-intentioned Illagers and lacks variety in quests. The game includes a co-op mode for up to four players and cross-platform online play, but players cannot transfer offline characters online. The Deluxe Edition includes additional content such as a Soul Cape, hero skins, and access to DLC packs.

Take-Two boss dismisses hand-wringing over the end of disc-based games: ‘Our business is well over 90% digitally distributed as it is’

Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive, stated that physical game discs "don't really make sense" in today's digital market, especially with the upcoming release of Grand Theft Auto 6 exclusively in digital format. While PC gamers have largely adopted digital gaming, the console sector has traditionally relied on physical releases. However, the lack of a physical edition for Grand Theft Auto 6 and Sony's plan to stop disc production by 2028 indicate a shift in this trend. Zelnick noted that although the transition to digital is inevitable, Take-Two will still release physical editions "now and then." Ubisoft's CEO and industry analyst Daniel Ahmad support Zelnick's views, highlighting that the console ecosystem is becoming "nearly entirely digital." The release of Grand Theft Auto 6 on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S raises questions about digital distribution and ownership in gaming.

PC Hand-Drawn 2D Survival Horror Game Announced for Consoles

Moonlight Pale is an indie survival horror game that has transitioned from a PC-exclusive project to a multi-platform release due to high pre-order demand. The developers plan to release the game on consoles, including Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. Initially crowdfunded, the game surpassed its Kickstarter goal of ,566, raising over 0,000, which allowed the team to unlock stretch goals, including console ports and a physical edition for PS5 and Nintendo Switch. The game is set in a late 1800s female seminary, where players control Juliette, who follows the ghost of her deceased cat. Development began in December 2025, with foundational systems programmed, the full script completed, and voice lines recorded for the first two chapters. The launch window is targeted between Q4 2026 and Q1 2027, with the Kickstarter campaign ending on July 4, 2026.
