Key Takeaways

📺 Assetto Corsa Rally Early Access Set for November 2025

Assetto Corsa Rally will speed into early access on November 13, 2025, marking a bold new direction for Kunos Simulazioni and publisher 505 Games. Known for its ultra-realistic driving physics, the Assetto Corsa series has long been a staple for racing simulation enthusiasts. This latest entry trades sleek tarmac for rugged terrain, challenging players to master the unpredictable conditions of mud, gravel, and snow. The official Assetto Corsa Rally Announcement Trailer highlights stunning environmental details, dynamic weather systems, and an authentic sense of momentum that captures the thrill of off-road racing.


As reported by Tech Power Up, the early access phase will offer a curated selection of cars, tracks, and gameplay features. This approach allows players to provide valuable feedback that will directly influence the game's development before its full release. Available on Steam, the early access version will support a wide range of steering wheels and peripherals, continuing the franchise's legacy of deep simulation fidelity. Fans of realistic racing can expect a tactile, immersive driving experience that rewards precision and adaptability — the hallmarks of Assetto Corsa's design philosophy.

📺 Final Fantasy 7 Remake Confirmed for Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026

Square Enix has officially confirmed that Final Fantasy 7 Remake will launch on the Nintendo Switch 2 on January 22, 2026, bringing one of gaming's most iconic stories to a new generation of players. This marks the first time the reimagined version of Final Fantasy 7 has appeared on a Nintendo platform, signaling a significant expansion of its audience. In a recently released official comparison video, the publisher showcased how the game performs across the Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC. According to VGC's analysis, the footage is encoded at 30 FPS — slightly limiting for high-end systems but still impressive for a portable console. The footage emphasizes how well-optimized the title is for the Switch 2's hybrid design, maintaining crisp visuals and stable performance.


Players will be able to purchase and pre-load the game digitally through the Nintendo eShop, with a physical edition expected to follow. This version of Final Fantasy 7 Remake offers a complete experience that includes cinematic storytelling, real-time combat, and beautifully updated music from the original PlayStation classic. By bringing Midgar's adventure to a handheld format, Square Enix ensures that both long-time fans and newcomers can experience Cloud Strife's journey anytime, anywhere. The Switch 2 release reinforces the company's commitment to accessibility without compromising the depth and artistry that define the Final Fantasy series.

📺 Horizon Zero Dawn Live-Action Movie Enters Development

PlayStation's beloved open-world adventure Horizon Zero Dawn is being adapted into a live-action movie, with filming scheduled to begin in 2026 and a potential theatrical release in 2027. The revelation came through court documents filed between Tencent and Sony, confirming that the project is well underway. According to IGN's report, the adaptation already has a completed script, and Sony is actively searching for a director to bring Aloy's world to life. Known for its rich post-apocalyptic setting and robotic wildlife, Horizon Zero Dawn offers immense cinematic potential, blending ancient survival themes with advanced technology.


Sony's move follows the success of other game-to-screen adaptations such as The Last of Us and Uncharted, highlighting the company's ongoing efforts to expand its entertainment portfolio. The original Horizon Zero Dawn - E3 2016 Trailer remains one of the most visually striking PlayStation showcases ever released, and it's easy to imagine those landscapes translated into live action. Fans are already speculating about casting choices for Aloy, the iconic huntress who embodies strength and curiosity in equal measure. If handled with care, the film could capture the emotional and visual depth that made Horizon Zero Dawn a modern classic — a balance of beauty, danger, and humanity that defines Guerrilla Games' vision.
