And just like that, February is done and we’re marching into March. It’s been a busy start to the year with all three platforms having their bespoke showcases, and a number of major exclusives and awaited sequels, and this last few days is no exception. Who’s playing Resident Evil Requiem this weekend?

With a relatively slim week for reviews, we had plenty of other features. For the previews, Steve sunk into the cosmic horror of Cthulu: The Cosmic Abyss, while Dom climbed the Scoville Scale with some Dosa Divas. He then turned his attentions to Resident Evil Requiem on Switch 2, finding it to be another handheld gaming marvel.
With the series’ 25th anniversary, Jim spoke to Creative Assembly about the origins of Total War and some of its beloved historical warfare quirks and references.
I also dug into Rennsport, a few months after its initial release. Looking to the game’s future in a roundup of the team’s plans, I also then spoke to the team about what went wrong, and how they’re planning to implement modding through 2026 and beyond.
Rounding out the week, What We Played featured Resident Evil Requiem, Marathon and Echoes of the End.
