This Week In Video Games 4/13/26 — 4/17/26

A lot has gone on this week in video games. Here is a recap of what we covered in the world of #videogames on the site this week

There we go with the week ending on a high note for all of our video games out there. Not just because we were finally able to get our review of #PeopleOfNote out to you all, but we had some other big news drop along the way. Like the fact that #Metro2039 is on the way to us all, and that #AtomicHeart has its final DLC out there before heading into the sequel. All of that, and #CinemaCon also gave us a solid look at the upcoming #StreetFightermovie that looks like it will be taking us back to the roots of the video games. Not too shabby of a week, and we still had more to come on top of all of that fun. Some that will have to wait until we have more time in the future weeks to make sure we can bring to you.

Review — People Of Note
 
Review — People Of Note

We sit down and review People Of Note. A new turn-based RPG with a load of Rhythm added in. Here is our review of #PeopleOfNote.

It is time to get those instruments tuned and vocals warmed up, as People Of Note is out there on the #PS5, #XboxSeriesX|S, #Switch2, and #PC. The latest title that Iridium Studios and Annapurna have placed out there to get us all a little more musically inclined. Well, at least a little bit, as this turn-based RPG leans into the realms of music in so many ways. Bot in the setting of People Of Note, along with some fun rhythm-based mechanics mixed into the title. It does sound off, and we are here with our #review of the gameplay to let you all know if it works out. It is time to let the stanza play out and see if this is going to be a title that will bring more musical light. If anything, give us a new way to experience a classic style of gaming.

The Title Song Is Ready For Us To Stream In 007 First Light
 
The Title Song Is Ready For Us To Stream In 007 First Light

007 First Light has its title song ready for us to listen to just ahead of #007FirstLight launching out there

Just as all of the films we have had in the IP, 007 First Light is getting its own signature song to bring us into the world of espionage. Not overly shocking, as it would have been weird if there wasn’t the traditional song, but here we are with IO Interactive making sure we all know that it is coming. Not only coming, but we can listen to it all as of right now to help get us to May 27th when 007 First Light will be hitting the #PS5, #XboxSeriesX|S, and #PC. The Switch players will still have to stream the song a little longer, as that version is slated for Summer release. No matter the case, we have something to listen to, and get us all in the mood to play as James when we are finally able to. #EarnTheNumber

Directive 8020 Offers A Look At Everything We Need To Know For The Game
 
Directive 8020 Offers A Look At Everything We Need To Know For The Game

Learn all that you need to know for Directive 8020 before we see #Directive8020 land on all of the platforms in a few weeks

The time to lift off for Directive 8020 is getting closer and closer, so we need to know what we are all going to be getting ourselves into when May 12th gets here. Not that Supermassive Games has not been great about offering those details up to now, but it is always nice to get a refresher. You will not want to load the game up on the #PS5, #XboxSeriesX|S, or #PC without all of that knowledge. Hence, why we are back with one more look at Directive 8020 with something that will tell us everything we need to know about the game before then. At least in terms of the gameplay and features, and not much more on the story. That we will still need to play out when the game fully launches, if you are not watching someone else play it for you. #TheDarkPictures

Metro 2039 Has Us All Waking Up To The New Future Out There
 
Metro 2039 Has Us All Waking Up To The New Future Out There

The world of Metro is finally on its way back, with the first reveal and look at the upcoming #Metro2039

True to the word, we have the full reveal and first looks at Metro 2039 after that nice little tease 4A Games gave us at the beginning of the week. Not only all of that, but we have some gameplay and a solid feel for where the title is going. It looks as if #Metro 2039 is going to head back into the darkness we all knew from the start, but in a way that is more a reflection of the real-world issues going on and how choices in life can lead to these dark places. That is more of the meta side of things, but I am guessing that Deep Silver will also want you to see just where the game is going to go when it launches this Winter on the #PS5, #XboxSeriesX|S, and #PC. That is where the rest of the reveals come in with this first look at the game.

Get Uppercut With The Latest Trailer For The Upcoming Street Fighter Movie

The first big trailer for the Street Fighter movie is here, and it looks to take us back to the classic #StreetFighter roots

There’s been a whole lot out there for the upcoming #StreetFighterMovie up to now, including some little controversies between other IPs. It’s been all good fun with casting announcements and various other things, but now, we get to see how it is all truly coming together with the latest trailer that we have for the film. One that seems to highlight the main story and many of the fighters we have had announced before now. The excitement has built up, and now, we’re here to see if Street Fighter is going to be the film that makes up for all of the other ones we have had in the past already. Let’s have a look and see if this is going to bring us all out to the theaters on October 16th this year…

The Blood On Crystal Is Bringing Things To An End In Atomic Heart
 
The Blood On Crystal Is Bringing Things To An End In Atomic Heart

The final DLC for Atomic Heart is here, and we can see how the story of #AtomicHeart is going to wrap before the sequel

The time has come, and the story of Atomic Heart is coming to an end on the PS4, #PS5, Xbox One, #XboxSeriesX|S, and #PC. It feels as if we have said that before, but I am sure that was just to announce that Mundfish was bringing us all the final #DLC for the game. Now, the launch of this DLC is here, and we get to see how it is all going to play out. Even if we have an Atomic Heart 2 to look forward to in the future. So, it is not the truest end to the IP, but just to the story that we have been experiencing over the last few years. We just need to be hopeful that it ends well, and we do not have much longer to wait until the next one comes out. For now, let us celebrate with one last look at the DLC.
