 Capcom has announced that both Dino Crisis and Dino Crisis 2, the first two installments of this beloved action and horror saga with dinosaurs that debuted on the original PlayStation, are now available on Steam.

These PC versions arrived a few months ago on GOG with a good amount of improvements that adapted both classics to the needs of today's computers, such as new rendering options, graphical improvements, bug fixes (including one that could corrupt our save in the first game), and full compatibility with modern controllers. All these improvements are also present in the Steam versions.

In case you're interested in playing them on Steam Deck, the compatibility status of both games with this console-PC hybrid is currently "unknown."

Dino Crisis was a classic survival horror originally from the first PlayStation that closely followed the Resident Evil formula, but replaced the mutant monsters of that saga with dinosaurs. It offered much more complex puzzles, and the story delved into science fiction. Additionally, at certain points, we had to make decisions.

 During the Nintendo Direct held on February 5, Nihon Falcom announced Kyoto Xanadu, a new action RPG that will arrive in summer 2026 on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam. Additionally, a new trailer has been shared, introducing the protagonists and showcasing the combat style and other game mechanics.

The story revolves around Rei Kamiya, who has stolen a large sum of money from the yakuza, but while escaping, he is absorbed by a portal that takes him to an alternate world where Japan's capital is Kyoto. In this new place, Rei awakens a power that creates two katanas and allows him to face creatures called Greed. After confronting these creatures, he is taken in by a mysterious masked woman, who proposes that he transfer to Hirasaka Academy. This is a special center only for the so-called Chosen. In this reality, Rei will have to face creatures and puzzles that emerge from a labyrinth known as Xanadu.

The Xanadu series is one of Nihon Falcom's oldest franchises. The first title in the saga was released in 1985 for the PC-88. In 2015, the company decided to revitalize the series with Tokyo Xanadu, setting the scenes in a more modern and urban Japan; additionally, social and school life elements were added. The latest title in the franchise was released in 2017 under the name Tokyo Xanadu eX+, which is available for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam.

 The Epic Games multiverse is about to become much more “stellar.” In a move that brings together two of the biggest titans in today’s industry, HoYoverse has confirmed that its hit space-fantasy RPG, Honkai: Star Rail, will cross paths with Fortnite. This is no minor collaboration. The legendary Stellaron Hunters, Kafka and Blade, will step away from chasing destiny aboard the Astral Express to leap from the Battle Bus instead. Starting on February 26, 2026, players will be able to experience the lethal elegance of these characters in an environment where firearms and building rule the game. 

The authority of this collaboration lies in the narrative importance of the chosen characters. Kafka and Blade are not just additional “skins”; they represent one of the most mysterious and beloved factions in Honkai: Star Rail.

Kafka is a woman who knows no fear, whose unsettling calm and mastery of weapons make her a perfect addition to the intensity of Fortnite. Blade, meanwhile, is an immortal swordsman whose constant regeneration and pain-forged past promise to deliver a visually striking style—especially with his signature crimson bandages.

Both outfits have been recreated with meticulous respect for HoYoverse’s original art style, ensuring a flawless transition into Epic’s engine.

From a user-experience perspective, this collaboration aims to integrate both universes in a deep way, offering content across multiple game modes within the Fortnite platform.

To ensure the reliability of your progress in this event, it’s vital to pay close attention to the launch conditions on February 26. Epic Games and HoYoverse have prepared a special incentive for new players.

Kuon

Long before the acclaimed "Souls" franchise, which brought FromSoftware worldwide recognition, it already had fantastic titles that distinguished itself from other games on the market. One of them is a forgotten pearl from the PlayStation 2, overshadowed by the release of Resident Evil 4 at the time. A Survival Horror title that was heavily criticized at the time for its slightly slow pace, excessive recoil, and heavy controls when it comes to movement and character combat. However, if all these details are not a problem for you, dear readers, we guarantee that you will find a phenomenal experience at: Kuon.

Kuon bases his narrative on well-known ancient horror tales like Kaidan. This is a game with a macabre and dark story and some chilling moments. The same thing happens during the Heian period, where the player controls three different characters who eventually cross paths while exploring the Fujiwara mansion, in which the game takes place. Mysterious creatures of evil rituals roam the site and will be the biggest challenge for anyone who has the courage to venture out to test the game.

 Corpse Party

Although not the scariest game on this list, Corpse Party can be considered a classic in Japanese horror games. It was originally released in 1996 and subsequently received a new version for various platforms.

Corpse Party presents several puzzles and mysteries to solve with a huge probability of taking a wrong step and being killed by the spirits of the Heavenly Lost school. Each chapter of the game also has several possible endings, offering the player a rich variety of exploration possibilities.

Deadly Premonition

What happens when you mix horror and comedy in a game with such poor mechanics that it even seems to have a purpose? They end up having one of the dumbest and most original horror games ever.

Deadly Premonition is a horror game in which an FBI agent travels to a city in search of a serial killer. The gameplay is pretty bad, but the story makes up for it by being incredibly good and fun, full of old movie references and cliché moments to enjoy at the right time.

A classic for several reasons, Deadly Premonition should be recommended to anyone looking for a different experience than what they expected.

 Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon

If you are looking for something different than what you are playing, Curse of the Moon is ideal for this moment! A clear homage to the classic NES Castlevania games, more specifically Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse, with a dark theme full of demons and vampires, clunky controls, great pixel art, frenetic music, high difficulty and much more.

Please note that the game is extremely short.
