This Week In Video Games 12/29/25 — 1/2/26

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

It has been a week here with the year ending and then starting back up, so we have more video games to play out there. Granted, it was a little on the lighter side as many of the teams and studios were out there celebrating, but we did have quite a few things to bring up. I mean, we saw #StrangerThings come to an end, but still live on in #DeadByDaylight, along with when we will be able to play #Styx: Blades Of Greed in this new year. A little more for #SAROS, and then a few indie games that will lead us into #CES next week. Yes, the tech convention snuck up on all of us again, and that little hype train has pulled out of the station too, even if they do not usually highlight many specific video games and more of the hardware to play them on.

FPS Quest Offers Up Some Gameplay That Will Lower Your FPS
 
FPS Quest Offers Up Some Gameplay That Will Lower Your FPS

Gameplay for the upcoming FPS Quest shows off how we will need to simulate low FPS to make it through #FPSQuest

As gamers out there, we all have the mythical frames per second that we think are the best, and now FPS Quest is going to show you how that might not always be the case. At least as part of the gameplay in the #PC title that Farlight Games Industry is putting together for us. Here we have a title where the FPS is your health, but having a lower setting in the game world of FPS Quest can also lead to some great little risks and rewards. As long as the following gameplay we have to share is any true indication of what is going on out there. I am sure that all sounds weird, so let us just jump into the gameplay we do have to see if we can make a little more sense out of it all.

The PlayStation Plus Monthly Video Games Coming January 2026

The list of free video games hitting the PlayStation systems in January has been released, and there are some great #videogames included in the mix

A new month is almost upon us here with January, and that means new video games that we are going to get for free. Well, video games that you will get for free if you are part of the #PlayStation Plus service. If you are, then you may be in for a treat as the list of titles going live starting next month is here, and we have it for you. Again, we get to expand our titles on the PS4 and #PS5 without needing to make any extra purchases at our local stores. Let us have a look at what will be coming as part of the lowest tier of the service that gamers out there can pick up.

Styx: Blades Of Greed Is Now Sneaking Out Early Next Year
 
Styx: Blades Of Greed Is Now Sneaking Out Early Next Year

Styx has gone missing in 2025, but we have a new release date for #Styx: Blades Of Greed in 2026

Those paying close attention to Styx: #BladesOfGreed might have thought that the game was set to stealth release in the next few days. Given that Nacon and Cyanide Studios had it slated for a 2025 release on the #PS5, #XboxSeriesX|S, and #PC. Well, it looks like that is going to be missed, and we did not have something sneak out there. Styx: Blades Of Greed is still coming, only now it has a different release date. One that is actually defined better than a general year of release. All of that is to say that the game is going to be launching on February 19th, 2026. Not too long of a wait, and also not like anything was missed since this is the first fully defined one out there.

DreadOut 3 Takes Us Deeper Into The World Of The Keepers Of The Dark
 
DreadOut 3 Takes Us Deeper Into The World Of The Keepers Of The Dark

New gameplay for DreadOut 3 is out there, so we can see just where this title will take the whole #DreadOut IP

The journey carries onward here, with a new look at #DreadOut3 and the path that Linda will be going down in the game. Along with a bit of new gameplay that Digital Happiness had to show off in a recent outing for the game. This time, with DreadOut 3 going into more of the balancing of light and darkness in the world that it has built. All in a way to get us amped up for the release of the game on the #PS5, #XboxSeriesX|S, and #PC. When that release will be, well, I think it is safe to say not 2025 currently, and with no set date as of yet. Either way, we have some fun things to look at, so let us all get excited to dive into the world that has come at us three times now.

A new update for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart Of Chornobyl is out there, and more stories are ready to be told in #STALKER2

The content keeps on rolling out for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart Of Chornobyl, with the latest content update adding in some untold stories. That, or they are telling us some stories that have been untold. The title is a little confusing, but that does not mean that GSC Game World is not offering up a whole lot more for those of us still deep in the world of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2. We know that there is a whole load of you out there with the #PS5, #XboxSeriesX|S, and #PC versions of the game. So, why not, for the holiday season, dig into some new stories to be told around the fires of the wastelands? As long as you have been able to snag this content update and all that it has to offer up.

It Is Time To Cut Out All Of Those Extra Pixels In Beneath
 
It Is Time To Cut Out All Of Those Extra Pixels In Beneath

The Retro Mode for Beneath is out there to keep us all entertained as we go further #Beneath for the season

Just as it was laid out there, Beneath has gone a bit further retro for the holiday season to keep us pulled into our #PS5, #XboxSeriesX|S, or #PC. The new and free mode for the game has been launched out there as a nice little holiday gift from Camel 101. It also gives fans of Beneath a reason to do another run through the game and see if they are as good as they think they are. It might not be so easy to line up shots or spot hidden things when we are working with the visuals from the ’90s here. Part of the point of this new way to play the game. A way that can be done as long as you own a copy and have downloaded the latest update for the game. It really could not be much easier for you to have this blast from the past.
