From a legendary developer’s long-lost NES game finally seeing the light of day to sequels set in the Vietnam War and beyond, gamers have plenty to look forward to in the coming years.
In a heartwarming turn of events, the Video Game History Foundation, in collaboration with Mega Cat Studios, has completed and is set to release Xcavator 2025, an unfinished game by the late programmer Chris Oberth.

Meanwhile, the Hell Let Loose franchise is gearing up for a new chapter with Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, set to release in 2026. The sequel promises to take players back to the dark times of the Vietnam War, introducing helicopters, boats, tunnels, and more. With a new gameplay trailer showcasing the intense combat and immersive environments, anticipation for this title is steadily building among fans of the series.
On a different note, Remedy Entertainment has announced Control 2: Resonant, a sequel to the critically acclaimed Control. Set for release in 2026, the game features a new setting, protagonist, and weapon, promising a fresh and exciting experience for players. Additionally, Housemarque’s Saros, a third-person action-shooter, received a new gameplay trailer and a slight delay to its release, now scheduled for April 30, 2026. The trailer showcases the game’s captivating visuals and action-packed gameplay, hinting at an engaging sci-fi adventure to come.
As the gaming landscape continues to evolve, these announcements highlight the industry’s commitment to preserving gaming history, exploring new narratives, and pushing the boundaries of creativity. With each new release, gamers can look forward to immersive experiences that transport them to different worlds and eras, all while celebrating the artistry and innovation of game development.
