007 First Light is one of our most anticipated games of 2026, and for good reason. After spending years giving us extremely fun playgrounds for Agent 47 to engineer kills in, IO Interactive is now bringing that skillset to Agent 007. Today's newest trailer gave us a look at James Bond's car of choice, the Aston Martin Valhalla. 

As expected, 007's Aston Martin Valhalla will be decked out with all kinds of special modifications, including guns, weaponry, and gadgets befitting of a 00 Agent. According to IO Interactive, it will serve as a "much-needed sidekick" to the younger version of James Bond that we're following in 007 First Light.

James Bond has an illustrious career in video games, with titles like GoldenEye 007, The World is Not Enough, Everything or Nothing, Nightfire, Bloodstone, From Russia with Love, and Quantum of Solace holding special places in the hearts of many. While many of those games adapt stories from films or feature an existing Bond, 007 First Light tells a completely original story of a younger James Bond on a mission that will earn him his license to kill.

007 First Light arrives on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2, and PC on March 27, 2026.

Following the extraordinary success of Vampire Survivors in 2022, developer Poncle has revealed its follow-up game. Revealed during today's Xbox Partner Preview, Vampire Crawlers in a spin off of Vampire Survivors, bringing the "one more run" mentality that permeates Poncle's hit to another genre within the same world.

As the name implies, Vampire Crawlers is a dungeon crawler. However, rather than the top-down view of Survivors, you play from the first-person perspective in a deck-building roguelike. "It's about mowing down hordes of enemies using cards, while you explore dungeons, playing as slowly or as fast as you prefer," Poncle founder and CEO Luca Galante told Xbox Wire. "You can take your time and be tactical, or play cards as fast as you humanly can, because the game is built to always provide accurate logical outcomes, regardless of the visual chaos that your abilities might cause. On top of the deck-building element, there is also a card customization mechanic that can dramatically alter the way you play your cards."

If that sounds like too extreme a departure from what you loved about Vampire Survivors, fear not, as Poncle says many of the trademark characters, upgrades, and weapons, such as the Bible, whip, and garlic, carry over to this experience. "Fans of Vampire Survivors will encounter familiar elements like treasure chests, weapon evolutions, unlocking something new after every run, a banger of a soundtrack, and terrible humor," Galante told Xbox Wire.

Released in 2022, Vampire Survivors took the gaming world by storm. A "bullet heaven," players take on hordes of enemies as a singular character who attains absurdly overpowered abilities to the point of becoming an unstoppable force, able to take on thousands of enemies at once. It's noteworthy for having one of the best hooks in recent years and for being extremely affordable; the base game is $5, and you can get it alongside all the DLC released over the last three years, of which there is a ton, for just under $21. It has featured crossovers with such games as Balatro, Castlevania, Contra, Saga, and Among Us. 

We don't know much more about Vampire Crawlers, but it will be available on Xbox, including Game Pass Ultimate, "soon." For more on Vampire Survivors, check out our glowing review here. 

Today’s Xbox Partner Preview kicked off with the reveal of Armatus, a roguelite third-person shooter coming next year by Counterplay Games, the studio behind 2020's Godfall. The game takes place in Paris, which has become overrun with demons after the fall of humanity. 

Players control a supernatural warrior hailing from an ancient order who wields traditional firearms and celestial powers, such as a glowing scythe-like weapon. You’ll battle your way through demons in search of a gateway to heaven called the Sunless Gate. A run-based game, death means restarting with different weapon loadouts, and players will gain new abilities the further they progress. 

Armatus is coming in 2026 to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. It's also coming to Xbox Game Pass.

Dave the Diver puts you in the flippers of Dave, who by day is a deep-sea diver exploring the depths of the Blue Hole, retrieving treasure and catching sea life. Then, at night, he takes his haul to a nearby sushi restaurant, where they can use his treasures to upgrade the establishment and his catches to serve the patrons. The game has received various updates in its more than two years of post-launch support, including crossovers with Godzilla and the Like a Dragon franchise.

In addition to the surprise launch of Dave the Diver on Xbox Series X/S, we also got a new look at the upcoming In The Jungle expansion, which was previously slated for a late-2025 release. The expansion, which now arrives in early 2026, allows Dave to explore solid ground, ride through jungle settlements, and battle against animals like a crocodile.

Dave the Diver is available today on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox on PC, and Xbox Cloud. According to Xbox, the release is optimized for handheld devices. Meanwhile, In The Jungle hits all versions of Dave the Diver in early 2026.
