Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio are keeping themselves very busy because they’ve also revealed a brand new title that is being temporarily named Project Century. This new action game appears to be sent in the Kamurocho of 1915 and the reveal trailer shows a new character exploring the city and getting into some rather nasty scraps. Check it out via the embed below:
Project Century currently has no release window or target platforms at the time of writing, but the game is being developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio.
Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. has received its first gameplay trailer. This new version of Virtua Fighter 5 brings the game to PCs with 4K support and rollback netcode. Content-wise the game is largely similar to Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown on PS4.
You can check out the new trailer via the embed below:
Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. will be SEGA’s final iteration of Virtua Fighter 5 before the next mainline entry releases. The game will release on PC on January 28th 2025. A 30th Anniversary Edition will also be available that gives you access to additional costumes, pre-production materials, music, wallpapers, titles and some cute console-themed items that look like a Mega Drive, Saturn and Dreamcast.
PS4 fighting game Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown has just received a massive 2.0 update that is available to download right now.
The game features a whole host of balancing adjustments, new hit effects, new combos and returning moves. You can watch a detailed trailer that showcases all the new stuff via the embed below:

A new Sonic the Hedgehog racing game is “coming soon”. This new title is called Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and will be released for PC, Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
The first teaser trailer for the game was showcased at The Game Awards 2024 and features Shadow the Hedgehog getting into a car that is not too dissimilar from the one he uses in Team Sonic Racing. The game’s logo is also reminiscent of Team Sonic Racing. Maybe this is a hint that the game was be a sequel to Team Sonic Racing?
You can check out the teaser trailer via the embed below:
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds will release on PC, Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S “soon”. No developer has been named at the time of writing, but I think it’s safe to assume that Sumo Digital are back at the helm.
SEGA have revealed a brand new Virtua Fighter game is in development at Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio. The game is currently being called “New Virtua Fighter Project” but will undoubtedly receive a different title at a later date.
The first teaser trailer showcases Akira and Sarah fighting in a street and seems to suggest that the environments are heavily destructible. You can watch it via the embed below:
No target platforms or release dates have been announced for this new Virtua Fighter title at the time of writing, but it’s safe to assume that SEGA are likely targeting PC if the release of Virtua Fighter 5 REVO is anything to go by.
SEGA have revealed a sequel to Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles is coming in 2025. The game will release on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch. You can watch the reveal trailer via the embed below:
While no developer is listed in the trailer, it’s safe to assume that CyberConnect2 are returning to develop Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2. The Hinokami Chronicles is a video game adaptation of the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba manga by Koyoharu Gotouge. The first game is a 3rd person arena fighter that adapts the first season of the anime adaptation.
Hasbro have announced the latest series getting a crossover with the Transformers- and it’s none other than Sonic the Hedgehog, with a two-pack of new Autobots set to land in Summer 2025.
Transformers Collaborative: Sonic the Hedgehog x Transformers consists of an action-figure two-pack, featuring Autobot Blue Booster (based on Sonic’s car from Team Sonic Racing) and Autobot Wingtail (based on the Tornado). The robot modes are unsurprisingly robotic takes on Sonic and Tails themselves. Their official summary from Hasbro is as follows:
The worlds of TRANSFORMERS robots and Sonic the Hedgehog collide with the Sonic the Hedgehog x TRANSFORMERS mash-up pack! Inspired by Sonic the Hedgehog characters, these 5-inch action figures convert from robot to alt mode and feature accurate deco and details. The Blue Booster figure converts between robot and car mode in 27 steps. The Wingtail figure converts between robot and biplane mode in 32 steps. Comes with accessories including ring shield and jewel accessories for the Blue Booster figure, and a detachable engine thruster that becomes a blaster for the Wingtail figure.
The two-pack will go up for pre-order on December 10th. In America, this set will be exclusive to Target, with limited stock for Premium members of Hasbro’s Pulse store. In the UK it’s unlikely to be exclusive to any particular store, based on past trends. The pack will retail for $49.99, and launch in Summer 2025.
Catch the stylish trailer for the duo above, and then check out the plethora of high-res images sent over by SEGA below (after the jump!). Will you be picking up this collaborative set? Because we know we will! Sound off in the comments. Read the rest of this entry »

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 introduces Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog. Jim Carrey plays double duty as Gerald Robotnik – Ivo Robotnik’s grandfather. They return to Earth to exact revenge on humanity with Ivo Robotnik by their side. Alyla Browne is also new to the cast and plays Maria.

A new homebrew port of The Ultimate Doom that includes episode 4, as well as a complete port of Doom II and select maps from TNT Evilution have been compiled together as Doom CD32X Fusion and programmed by the talented duo of Vic and ChillyWilly from the Doom World forums. The pair were previously responsible for Doom 32X Ressurection.
This new port makes use of the Mega Drive, Mega-CD and 32X to offer the best playing version of Doom available for the system and can run on real hardware as well as the Ares emulator. The Mega-CD also gives the game PCM audio for enhanced music.
Detailed instructions on how to compile a working copy of the game for Mega Drive, Mega-CD and 32X owners can be found on the game’s forum entry at Doom World. You also need to source some files from a real copy of Doom 1&2 in order to compile the necessary ROM file.
The Doom World entry on Doom CD32X Fusion also details every single addition and feature this project has over the previously released Doom 32X Resurrection homebrew project. Doom 32X Resurrection was made to enhance the 32X port of Doom with a large variety of improvements and is also available to download here.
