Hogwarts Legacy 2 confirmed, Ghost of Yotei expands, GTA 6 preorders baffle Take-Two

Hogwarts Legacy 2 is officially in development, confirming what many had anticipated after the original's commercial success. The announcement puts Warner Bros.' wizarding world sequel on the map, though details beyond the confirmation remain scarce. It arrives the same day Sony Santa Monica revealed that Ghost of Yotei will receive a story expansion, a new roguelike mode, and a Complete Edition — a substantial post-launch roadmap for a game not yet released.

Take-Two is declining to share raw preorder numbers for GTA 6, with the company admitting it simply doesn't know how to interpret them — a situation executives describe as unprecedented. The candid admission speaks to how unusual the scale of anticipation around that game has become. Separately, dataminers have turned up five possible DLC characters for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, and speculation is swirling that The Elder Scrolls 6 may carry the subtitle Sentinel, based on a fan theory tracing back to a Starfield teaser.

Nintendo added another GameCube title to the Switch 2 library this week, continuing its gradual expansion of the classic catalogue. Helldivers 2 is pulling from Dead Space and Silent Hill for its latest alien additions, and Dawn of War 4 has had its launch date pushed back, meaning players won't be getting into it in September. New roguelike city builder Combolands is drawing comparisons to both Cities: Skylines and Balatro, and is earning strong notices from critics.
