I saw a video on spawnwave that talked today about what games people are enjoying in 2026 right now. And the different reactions of different social media/sites.
I personally am loving Wild Blue Skie s. Its just starfox. Thats what I want to play!
BALL x PIT is a whole lot of fun. I didn’t think it would be but it keeps getting better and better.
I also liked FTL back in the day so I picked up Void War . Its like warhammer + FTL and its fantastic.
EDIT: You all are great! Keep them coming! So many games (video games and otherwise) in this list!
What the Golf has been making me laugh a lot.
Playing a bunch of remastered Witcher 3
My buddy talked me into no mans sky and I gotta say, its really fun.
Its got bugs for sure, and some stuff that is irritating like having to hold E for every action or the stupid notification that happens every time you warp to a system or station that requires you to hold tab to skip but there are mods that help.
I love being able to build a ship and a base on different planets, own my own space fleet, destroy pirates, be a pirate, etc. Its far from perfect but I’m into it now. Its fun as hell.
I’m playing the Witcher 3 for the remaster, and getting mollywopped over and over on Death March. I’m also watching my girlfriend become a gamer playing Skyrim.
My wife has over 1200+ hours in skyrim. Your girlfriend is going to enjoy I think haha. GL!
I’m struggling my way through Dark Souls right now, just got to Blighttown. Souls-like games weren’t ever my jam previously but I just got into them recently after beating Mortal Shell 2 and figured I’d play my way through the Fromsoft catalogue in order.
I’m also playing Lies of P and that game is fantastic. Before that it was a lot of Hades and Pathogenic, which I still go back to for breaks from dieing in Dark Souls lol
Ace Combat 8. Although my computer requires that it be set to potato mode.
Freelancer. Old but always enjoyable.
Battletech. HBS put out an absolute banger.
Transport Fever 3 just came out. I just sunk 12 hours and plan to sink even more. They perfected the tycoon genre.
Not Hearts of Iron 4
EDIT: Age of History 3
American Truck Simulator with the new road car DLC is making me relive all those trailers of Need For Speed: The Run back in the day.
Project zomboid
I’ve got a deck of cards in my coffee table that I like to play solitaire on. I keep tweaking the house rules to make it more fun.
Actually I’m not sure I’d call it “fun” so much as “relaxing.” But I do enjoy myself.
It counts!
Haha thanks, I did double check this wasn’t just about video games first. :9
I was hoping to get some physical games here too.
I’m really enjoying the creativity of Sandustry, available in steam and GOG. Turning sand into gold and excavating with different tools has been fun.
playing fallout 4 again. i already loved it when it had came out, but it is honestly even better than i remember. too many people focus on what the game isn’t and completely miss the masterpiece that it is
Grim Dawn. A new DLC came out, which is pretty neat.
I’m playing Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. I played through the first one and loved it, and I’m loving the second one. A lot of love got put into this and I love medieval history, and the game is long. And hard. But in the way you have to slowly hone your skills and really learn the mechanics. But I kind of enjoy how it’s for a slower pace, and I’m really getting my money’s worth with this series.
