The cutest games from the Wholesome Direct 2026 showcase

Every year at Summer Game Fest, nestled in between the splashy blockbuster showcases, the Wholesome Direct provides a nice change of pace. It’s similarly packed with games – this year’s edition had more than 50 – but the vibe is more chill and, well, wholesome. As in years past, I’ve pulled out some of the […]

Control Resonant is a sequel — and also a starting point

Chronologically, Control Resonant is a sequel to 2019’s Control. But in most other ways, the games aren’t directly connected. To developer Remedy, they’re more like two sides of the same coin.
