At 6:00 AM KST on June 6, 2026, 'Summer Game Fest'—now firmly established as the premier summer game showcase—took place.

This year's Summer Game Fest drew more attention from gamers than ever before. With so many major titles revealed at Sony's own 'State of Play' just days prior, anticipation was high that the subsequent Summer Game Fest would deliver equally impressive announcements, fueling intense interest alongside curiosity about still-unrevealed titles.

When the event finally began, it proved exactly why it is the definitive summer game showcase. From 'Resident Evil RE: Veronica' to 'Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance' and 'Stellar Blade: Blood Rain,' news on long-veiled blockbusters was finally unveiled.

SUMMER GAME FESTResident Evil RE: Veronica

'Code Veronica,' widely considered a spin-off of the Resident Evil series and a true successor to the second game, has finally returned as the remake project 'Resident Evil RE: Veronica.' The core story appears to remain largely faithful to the original. The original followed Claire Redfield as she infiltrated the Umbrella Paris branch to find clues about her brother, only to be discovered, exiled to Rockfort Island, and forced to escape. 'Resident Evil RE: Veronica' is expected to follow a similar progression, with Claire visiting Paris to infiltrate the branch and being kidnapped by Hunk while investigating what is presumed to be someone's room, leading her to Rockfort Island. 'Resident Evil RE: Veronica' is scheduled for release in 2027.

SUMMER GAME FESTAlien: Isolation 2

'Alien: Isolation 2' is the official sequel to the masterpiece 'Alien: Isolation,' which was incorporated into the series canon due to its profound respect for the source material and overwhelming critical acclaim. Just as the predecessor faithfully recreated the world of the film to make players feel like survivors being hunted by an Alien, this new entry is expected to deliver unprecedented levels of terror. The revealed footage provides a glimpse of a survivor being hunted by an Alien against the backdrop of a wrecked spaceship, signaling horror that surpasses the original. The official release date for 'Alien: Isolation 2,' returning after a staggering 12 years, is yet to be determined.

SUMMER GAME FESTMighty Cuphead Adventure

'Mighty Cuphead Adventure' is a brand-new title based on the 'Cuphead' IP, which left a deep impression with its unique hand-drawn art. While the original Cuphead featured 1930s vintage cartoon-style visuals, 'Mighty Cuphead Adventure' takes it a step further by being developed in 'Assembly.' This is expected to go beyond mere visual nostalgia and fully convey the analog feel of that era down to the system level. Specific details about the game remain under wraps. It has only been revealed that it is a 80s-style classic platformer using a virtual CRT screen, with more detailed information to be released later.

The protagonists are an unnamed messenger and his son, who must deliver a message of faith amidst a chaotic era of riots. Players follow their arduous adventure and experience human emotions and conflicts hidden behind the backdrop of grand history. Unlike the first reveal video, which was cinematic-focused, this video is centered on in-game play.

'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin' is a new game being developed by the renowned Japanese action studio PlatinumGames.

'That's No Moon,' which drew attention simply for being founded by former Naughty Dog developers famous for Uncharted and The Last of Us, has finally unveiled 'CrossFire.'

The video revealed at Summer Game Fest offers a glimpse into the realistic visuals and various technologies applied to the game. The most notable feature is the adaptive cover system; unlike previous games where players hid behind square, box-shaped cover, players can be seen naturally taking cover behind irregularly shaped rocks or trees.
