What was shown at Summer Game Fest 2025: Resident Evil Requiem, Atomic Heart 2 and Game of Thrones: War for Westeros

Summer Game Fest is the main gaming exhibition of the summer. The event is sometimes called an alternative to E3, because it is from there that we expect the loudest announcements. You will learn about all the most interesting things that were shown on the night of June 6-7, 2025, from our article.

This time, the insiders did not lie — the Summer Game Fest really did announce the ninth part of the Resident Evil series. It will have the subtitle Requiem. We were shown a new heroine, Grace Ashcroft. This girl is an FBI analyst who is investigating a series of mysterious deaths. Familiar characters did not appear in the video. The game will be released on February 26, 2026.

When it became known that Mundfish would visit Summer Game Fest 2025, many were hoping for information about the fourth addition to the original Atomic Heart. But the developers exceeded our expectations and announced a full-fledged sequel. Let us remind you that we are talking about a shooter in the setting of the retro-futuristic USSR. In the trailer, we saw the Luna-2 space station with a large portrait of Sergei Pavlovich Korolev and a demonstration of new biotechnology involving live whales. An unusual transport in the form of a spherical capsule on wheels is also shown, which can both drive and walk on flexible "paws". A grappling hook and a parachute will be used to move around the locations. There are also twin ballerinas, only now they are not silver, but gold. There is even a local strip club with dancing androids. The release date has not yet been announced.

Not long ago, representatives of Warner Bros. Games stated that Game of Thrones is one of the company's top priorities. At that time, it was unclear what exactly they were talking about. The situation became a little clearer at the Summer Game Fest, where they announced the real-time strategy War for Westeros. The trailer showed Jon Snow, who dies at the hands of the Night King and joins his army as a living dead man. Apparently, such a scenario will be possible in the game itself. We are expecting large-scale battles, political intrigue and the struggle for the territories of Westeros. The release will take place in 2026.

The announcement of Mortal Shell 2 took place. Apparently, it will be a spectacular and brutal soulslike with bloody battles and bizarre opponents like a giant bun or a shapeless worm. It may be an outlet for those who love Dark Souls, but are disappointed with the current policy of FromSoftware with its bet on roguelike instead of full-fledged story games. The release is scheduled for 2026.

A dark and atmospheric shooter with elements of horror and survival. Local monsters react realistically to being hit by firearms — their arms and legs fly off, and their heads burst. The gameplay looks spectacular, so we are eagerly awaiting details.

A game dedicated to the hip-hop group Wu-Tang Clan. According to the plot, one of the members of the group, known as Ghostface Killah, asks you to help save the world of Shaolin and find missing people. We are promised spectacular fights, nice graphics and a cheerful soundtrack.

A new trailer for Mafia: The Old Country was shown. We are waiting for a game with a bet on a well-thought-out plot about Sicilian gangsters. We hope that the developers from Hangar 13 have learned from their mistakes and will not make us go through dozens of similar side quests, as was the case in the third part of the series. It should be noted that the hoarse voiceover involuntarily brings to mind Vito Corleone from the first "The Godfather". The fourth "Mafia" will be released on August 8.

Hideo Kojima took the stage to share new details about Death Stranding 2. And on the screen we saw cutscenes from the game. The production of the videos, as before, is beyond praise. The project will be released on June 26, and on the 9th we will have a special presentation.

Capcom showed a new gameplay trailer for the fourth part of the Onimusha series. It feels like a mix of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and God of War with its huge bosses and brutal finishers. The benchmarks are more than worthy. In addition, Sony has not announced a new game about Kratos. Way of the Sword will be released in 2026.

In the new trailer Wuchang: Fallen Feathers we saw the opponents that the main character of the game will have to fight. Among them are both experienced warriors and monsters with tentacles. The action of the project will unfold in China during the Warring States.

A 3D action platformer that looks like cartoons of the past, and in terms of gameplay — games from the PlayStation 2 era. It turns out to be a nice old school with crazy humor. The release date has not yet been announced.

A new project from Ryu Ga Gotoku, known for the Yakuza series. The action of Stranger Than Heaven takes place in 1943 in Japan. Judging by the trailer, we will explore the open world and participate in spectacular fights. And if we take into account the features of these developers, we will probably be offered dozens of different mini-games for every taste.

This action game in the late Middle Ages setting offers battles with hundreds of fighters. The plot trailer looks impressive — it reminds of the film "The Last Duel" by Ridley Scott, with spectacular and realistic battles between knights. But the footage with live gameplay does not look so beautiful — it seems that we have a guest from the past. The game will appear in early access in 2026.

Sonic Racing: Crossworlds is an analogue of Mario Kart, only from Sega. In addition to the heroes of the Sonic series, you will find Joker from Persona 5, Ichiban Kasuga from Yakuza, Steve from Minecraft and the vocaloid Hatsune Miku. The project is worth paying attention to fans of arcade racing with simple physics and special bonuses on the track. The game will be released on September 25, 2025.

A sequel to the game Code Vein has been announced, an action game in the spirit of Dark Souls in anime style. Fans of the genre will see huge bosses, cute girls, the ability to ride a futuristic bike and use truly unusual weapons in battle. The release is scheduled for 2026.

They showed the gameplay of a top-down shooter called End of Abyss, which is subtly reminiscent of Little Nightmares in terms of atmosphere and appearance. Creepy, surreal monsters, gloomy scenery and a protagonist in a yellow jumpsuit — all this looks even too familiar. The game will be released in 2026.

In the trailer for the black-and-white shooter, which is stylized as Disney cartoons of the 30s, we saw characters and shooting from various weapons. Among them are not only standard machine guns, but also a freeze gun. The appearance of the game is reminiscent of Cuphead, which was also inspired by the animated classics of the first half of the 20th century. One of the characters will be voiced by Troy Baker, known for his role as Joel from The Last of Us. The release of MOUSE: P.I. For Hire is scheduled for 2025.

In addition to the direct sequel to Atomic Heart, a multiplayer shooter The Cube has been announced, the action of which will unfold in the same universe. Moreover, the game will have MMORPG elements — we will have to explore a world with various biomes, complete tasks and fight bosses. The release date has not yet been announced.

They showed gameplay beat'em up with Marvel comics characters. Among them are Rocket, She-Hulk, Wolverine, Venom and many others. Nice pixel graphics bring to mind games of this genre from the times of Sega Mega Drive and SNES. The release is scheduled for 2025.

A boxing simulator between rag dolls that look like Sesame Street characters. Seriousness and drama are combined with black humor. Thanks to the Unreal Engine 5, the project looks stylish, but it is not yet clear how interesting it will be to play. The release date of Felt That: Boxing has not yet been announced.

An asymmetrical multiplayer action game where you have to explore the castle, collect weapons and various loot, as well as conduct investigations and deal with evidence. All players are divided into two teams. The goal of the lambs is to identify and stop the wolves who are trying to kill them. It turns out to be a kind of analogue of the sensational Among Us. Closed beta starts soon.

A metroidvania with colorful graphics, a futuristic setting and the ability to make long dashes in place, like in Ori and the Blind Forest. You will play as an android who explores a giant spaceship and tries to figure out why the other robots have gone crazy. It is not entirely clear how the game will differ from other representatives of the genre. The demo version is already available.

LEGO Voyagers is a three-dimensional platformer that is focused on cooperative play. One copy is enough for a joint game. The host compares the game with Split Fiction, but we doubt that we will get a project of the same quality. The developers are Light Brick Studio, known for LEGO Builder's Journey.

A simple action game with Nickelodeon cartoon characters, including SpongeBob. The game's appearance is fully consistent with the style of modern animated series. The release is scheduled for autumn 2025.

The developers are Yacht Club Games, known for the Shovel Knight series. The project will be released on October 31, but the demo version is already available for review.

They showed a gameplay trailer for Dying Light: The Beast, a standalone addition to the second part of the series.

An adventure game about three friends. They spend their last evening together before growing up and remember the bright events of their lives. The game is saturated with the music of the 80s and 90s, so it is designed, first of all, for those who feel nostalgia for this time.

A roguelike stylized as a modern anime series. The main characters are guardians who will participate in battles and become stronger over time. Their home village, which serves as a hub, also changes — new residents and unique tasks for the characters appear in it.

A team PvPvE shooter that looks like Overwatch. Its action takes place in space, so in addition to the usual shootouts, we will board enemy starships.

A survival game set on a distant planet. Players will encounter representatives of the local fauna, as well as enemy combat vehicles.
