Top 10 Games We Loved from Summer Game Fest 2025 (Plus 3 Honorable Mentions)

Sure, let’s dive into this chaos. So, we’ve got another Summer Game Fest in the books. You know the drill, right? Hopping on a plane, checking out a bunch of games, some we could play, some just there, teasing us with their trailers. Mixed bag, really.

Honorable Mentions… or Something

Okay, full disclosure, saw a bunch of stuff but couldn’t get our grubby hands on everything. Especially those elusive behind-the-scenes teasers. Still cool though. Here’s a quick rundown:

• Resident Evil Requiem: Capcom is on a roll with this one. “Addictive fear” they say. Raccoon City is back, and the vibes are killer — literally. Switch from first to third person if you wanna mix it up.

• Onimusha: Way of the Sword: Knowing zilch about previous Onimusha games? Doesn’t matter. This one’s gonna be all about timed combat and folklore. Fingers crossed Capcom gives us more video sneak peeks before 2026.

• Directive 8020: Supermassive is at it again with their horror tales. I mean, we stealth-dodged a shapeshifting space monster — sweat-inducing! We’ve got more on ComingSoon if you’re into details.

Bandit Trap

Blast from my Wii U days! Who knew I’d be this jazzed over a multiplayer chaos-fest that’s Home Alone meets slapstick comedy? You either loot or trap, not much in-between. It’s chaotic art, really.

Crimson Desert

Can we talk about the name? Ugh, sounds like every RPG ever, but it’s got potential. Fighting like a mix of The Witcher and Dragon’s Dogma — overwhelmed but with flair. Kliff’s there, being a paraglider wizard. Kitchen sink game for sure.

Deadpool VR

Oh man, Deadpool’s back! Twisted Pixel is making some comedy magic here. Neil Patrick Harris as Deadpool? Yes, please! Still not sure if it’s hitting PlayStation VR2 but fingers crossed.

Dosa Divas

Food games are where it’s at. This one’s got RPG vibes, witty dialogues, and dosa-crafting — yum! Cooking little combat, but with sisters fighting evil fast food. Divine culinary chaos.

FBC: Firebreak

Shooter overload out there but Firebreak’s got Remedy’s touch. Kinda nice they’re not going the free-to-play route. Takes place post-Control — memo monsters and Sticky Ricky, the sticky note behemoth. Launching soon, so gear up.

Marvel Cosmic Invasion

Tons of buzz, but lips sealed tight. More soon — keep an eye out at ComingSoon.net for that scoop.

Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound

Plenty of Ninja Gaiden hype! This is not your regular Ryu adventure. Kenji gets center stage now. Classic 2D arcade vibe, so speedrunners, take note. Demo’s out for PC folks.

Pragmata

Remember this? Five years in the making, so no pressure, right? Future, robots, and shoot-y puzzle mania. Electric shotgun? Sign me up. It’s hitting soon and once I tried it, honestly couldn’t unsee the potential.

Ratatan

Didn’t own a PSP, but Patapon’s spiritual sequel’s here. Music and timed commands with… creatures? It’s rogue-y now, which sounds intense. I flubbed a bit but still, sooo fun!

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers

Thought I was tough post-Elden Ring — how wrong I was. New to Wuchang? It’s a dodge ‘em and hit ‘em kinda deal. The magic buildup and bird powers make you feel like a combat genius… eventually.

There it is — raw, messy, and completely human. Game on.
