The Biggest New Game Releases Of January 2026

The Biggest New Game Releases Of January 2026 https://ift.tt/ZWdTD2I Last year was another one for the history books, but going into 2026, we're excited to see how the next 365 days shape up. Of course, we're counting down the days until GTA 6 launches in November, but until then, there's still a lot to look forward to. Typically, January is one of the slower months on the calendar, with a lighter schedule of releases and few high-profile games choosing to launch in the wake of a busy Q4 from the previous year. That doesn't mean that there aren't several interesting games to check out, and the focus on smaller titles can lead to unexpected hits. This month, some of the interesting games include a sequel to Code Vein, perceptive reality in Cassette Boy, and a look at a city-builder that takes you back to the time of kings, knights, and peasants desiring to run an anarcho-syndicalist commune .

Expendables 4 Review - They Made Another One

Expendables 4 Review - They Made Another One https://ift.tt/Vizl6C5

The Expendables franchise is out of step with the present. These movies are supposed to serve as homages to the silly, low-rent action movies of the '80s and '90s, when many of our biggest action stars made their names. But if this franchise wanted to keep going after a nine-year break, Expendables 4 (officially dubbed Expend4bles) needed a meaningful change to how it operates--something akin to how Bad Boys for Life added a welcome streak of self-awareness.

Amusingly, Expendables 4 borrows a number of elements from that third Bad Boys movie--like casting the actor who played that film's sub-villain, Jacob Scipio; an "old guy needs glasses" subplot with Dolph Lundgren; the addition of an entire group of younger-generation folks to contrast with the old hats; and a fighter who doesn't want to do any fighting because it's traumatic for him. Despite that, Expendfourbles doesn't manage any kind of self-reflection. It does, however, have about 20 minutes of really solid action that almost makes the film's remaining hour and change of excessively incoherent plotting worth sitting through. Almost.

This fourth Expendables movie sees the gang, led once more by Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone) and Lee Christmas (Jason Statham), but without a lot of the past big names from the series, go up against a mysterious terrorist named Rahmat (The Raid's Iko Uwais), who is doing a pretty standard "steal a nuke to start World War III" villain plan. The Expendables try to stop him from stealing some fancy high-tech detonators, but things go wrong and they lose one of their own on the way to failing the mission.
