It's easy to miss games when there's just so-much-news, so here's a small selection I wanted to highlight to go on your wishlists.

Perhaps there's something you scrolled past previously when I covered it, or you just entirely forgot about them. Here's just a small cherry-picked selection of games I think are really worth keeping an eye on. There's just so many damn good games coming out all the time, the industry never sleeps.

Adventures of a Cat in Space is a game we're planning on picking up at release and all playing together as a family.

Looking at my wishlist, the problem is that I see no release date in most of it... by the way Liam, I have "At Fate's end", but release date is 2026...?

- "Terminator 2D: No fate" (05/09/2025). This one is looking real, and real good.

- And honestly, to me, most everything else just falls under the category of "waiting for Mechanicus II", or "keeping busy until Mechanicus II comes out".

You already covered it, but I'm pretty hyped by Xenopurge (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2983410/Xenopurge/).

And I quite simply cannot believe that you haven't put Streets of Rogue 2 on this list!

We’re getting so swamped with good games I forgot all about Streets of Rogue 2. Haven’t heard anything on it for a while either.
