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 already unveiled at Sony's own 'State of Play' just days prior, anticipation was high that Summer Game Fest would follow up with equally impressive reveals, fueling intense interest alongside curiosity about yet-to-be-announced titles.

The event 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 brought to light.

SUMMER GAME FESTResident Evil RE: Veronica

'Code Veronica,' considered both a spin-off and the true successor to the second entry in the Resident Evil series, has finally returned as the remake project 'Resident Evil RE: Veronica.' One notable difference is that while Claire Redfield was the protagonist in the original, the newly revealed footage appears to feature Ada as the lead. For reasons unknown, she heads to Paris, where she investigates a boarding house and suddenly comes face-to-face with Hunk. Given that Claire Redfield originally infiltrated the Umbrella Paris branch to find clues about her brother before being caught and exiled to Rockfort Island, it appears Ada will undergo a similar journey. It is expected that she will eventually meet Claire and embark on an escape from Rockfort Island together. 'Resident Evil 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 thorough respect for the source material and overwhelming critical acclaim. Just as the predecessor faithfully recreated the film's world to make players feel like survivors being hunted by an alien, this new entry promises to deliver terror on an unprecedented scale. The revealed footage shows glimpses of a survivor being hunted by an alien aboard a wrecked spaceship, signaling horror that surpasses the original. The official release date for 'Alien: Isolation 2,' returning after a 12-year hiatus, has yet to be determined.

SUMMER GAME FESTMighty Cuphead Adventure

'Mighty Cuphead Adventure' is an all-new title based on the 'Cuphead' IP, which left a lasting impression with its unique hand-drawn art style. While the original Cuphead presented a 1930s vintage cartoon visual style, '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 classic platformer genre featuring 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.

Unlike the first reveal, which focused on cinematics, this video is centered on in-game play.

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

The footage 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 boxy, square obstacles, players can be seen taking cover naturally behind irregularly shaped rocks or trees.

SUMMER GAME FESTStellar Blade: Blood Rain

'Stellar Blade: Blood Rain,' the official sequel to 'Stellar Blade,' was unveiled for the first time at Summer Game Fest.

This is expected to provide a new kind of action catharsis quite different from the original. The setting has also changed.
