Like most annual gaming wrap-ups, Nintendo's shows how many games you played over the calendar year, as well as your total playtime.

In June 2025, EA's Star Wars Battlefront II received an unprecedented uptick in players on Steam.

Playground Games is working on two new games, including Forza Horizon 6 and a new Fable title, and both are expected to release on PS5--but only one may come to Sony's console day and date with the Xbox and PC versions.
