Game Freak ‘freezes’ Pokémon to unveil Beast of Reincarnation, a spectacular RPG
A combat-focused RPG that looks fantastic.
At Summer Game Fest 2025, Game Freak revealed Beast of Reincarnation, a fantasy action RPG that marks a major departure from its work on Pokémon.
The game features fast-paced combat, deep RPG mechanics, and a stunning world, setting it apart from anything the studio has done before.
Beast of Reincarnation is set to launch in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
A surprisingly packed summer for gaming
Traditionally, summer is a quiet season for gaming, with few major releases outside of Summer Game Fest.
However, 2025 is different, thanks to the arrival of Nintendo Switch 2 and Mario Kart World, which have reshaped the industry’s release calendar.
Upcoming highlights include:
- June 26 – Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, the highly anticipated sequel from Hideo Kojima.
- July 17 – Donkey Kong Bananza, the most awaited Nintendo Switch 2 title.
- August 8 – Mafia: The Old Country.
- August 21 – Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road.
- August 26 – Gears of War: Reloaded.
- August 28 – Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater.
With so many major releases, this summer is shaping up to be one of the busiest in years.
