  • PlayStation Having Second Thoughts About Sharing Its Games - Next-Gen Console Watch
    Mar 6 2026
    Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! On this week's episode, the crew discusses a recent report that Sony might be rethinking PC ports in the future. Specifically, first-party single-player games like Ghost of Yōtei, Marvel's Wolverine, and others might not see PC versions. Multiplayer titles like Bungie's Marathon—published by Sony—will still see multiplatform releases. The report cites low sales for Sony's PC titles, and a possible risk to PS5 and eventually PS6 hardware. But we have another theory: with the eventual release of the Steam Machine and the possible next Xbox merging PC and console gaming, maybe Sony doesn't want their titles appearing on a rival's console platform?

  • Which of These Upcoming Games Can Run On Switch 2? - Next-Gen Console Watch
    Feb 20 2026
    Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week we take a look at a few games that might have a chance of coming to the Nintendo Switch 2. It's the fastest-selling console of all time with almost 20 million units sold globally in less than a year, and other triple-A titles are already coming to the platform such as Resident Evil: Requiem and 007 First Light. Upcoming games like Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, Forza Horizon 5 (and maybe 6), Beast of Reincarnation, Silent Hill: Townfall, and others have already been announced for the PS5 and Xbox Series consoles, but publishing issues aside, what's keeping them from the Switch 2?

  • Where Are These 13 PS5 & Xbox Games? - Next-Gen Console Watch
    Feb 6 2026
    Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week we take a look at 13 supposed PS5 and Xbox Series games that we should have already been playing. Games like Judas, Knights of the Old Republic remake, Little Devil Inside, and Beyond Good & Evil 2 have had rocky development paths, but at this point, we're wondering if we'll even get these games at all, despite developers and publishers assuring us they're still being worked on. Plus we go over AMD's latest comments about the next-generation Xbox, and we have last week's poll results and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • The Pros & Cons of Holding Back the PS6 - Next-Gen Console Watch
    Jan 30 2026
    Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week Daemon, Max, and Ryan look at the possible ups and downs of a delay of the PlayStation 6. With PS5 software sales holding strong, and with prices for gaming components like RAM skyrocketing, there's a real possibility Sony will wait another few years before debuting the PS6. This could make the current generation the longest console cycle so far, with 8 or more years from the launch of the PS5 and the possibile drop of the PS6.

    Jan 16 2026
    Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch. This week we take a look at how the recent RAM shortage will affect the next generation of console games. With AI data centers demanding more and more RAM, manufacturers have pivoted to providing this growing industry with pretty much whatever it needs, thus forcing the cost of consumer RAM through the roof. What does this mean for the PlayStation 6 and next Xbox? Or for Valve's Steam Machine? Plus we look at last week's poll results, and we have a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.
