New Game Releases This Week: October 26–November 1, 2026, Led by The Wolf Among Us Remastered
Four games launch this week, from Minecraft on Switch 2 to The Wolf Among Us Remastered on five platforms, and Zelda: Ocarina of Time follows on November 5.
The week of October 26–November 1, 2026 is a light one by release count, with four games on the calendar. One lands on Tuesday and three arrive on Thursday. The title with the widest reach is The Wolf Among Us Remastered, which is listed for five platforms. That is why we lead with it, though the sources do not rank the games by size or popularity.
The dates below are the publishers' announced release dates, as listed in the Video Games Chronicle (VGC) release calendar, which was last checked on October 19, 2026. Local launch times can vary by region and platform.
This week's releases, day by day
Tuesday, October 27
- Minecraft (Switch 2)
Thursday, October 29
- Phantom Blade 0 (PS5, PC)
- The Wolf Among Us Remastered (PC, PS5, Xbox, Switch, Switch 2)
- Hello Kitty Party Land (Switch, Switch 2)
Nothing else is listed for Wednesday, Friday, the weekend or Monday, so Thursday is the day to watch. Switch 2 owners get the most variety: Minecraft, The Wolf Among Us Remastered and Hello Kitty Party Land are all listed for the console. Phantom Blade 0 is the only game this week listed for PS5 and PC alone, with no Xbox or Nintendo version on the sheet.
What is not in the list
The calendar does not include prices, editions or file sizes. It also does not say what the Minecraft entry on Switch 2 contains, so check the eShop or the publisher's page for details before you buy. Platform lists are as given by the source. "Xbox" is written as a single entry, so check which Xbox consoles are supported on the store page.
Next week: November 2–8
The following week already has a first batch of dates on the calendar:
Thursday, November 5
- The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Switch 2)
- Edge of Memories (PS5, Xbox, PC)
- Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Encore Edition (Switch 2)
Friday, November 6
- Stellar Blade (Switch 2)
Switch 2 dominates that list, with three of the four games. Edge of Memories is the only one listed for PS5, Xbox and PC.
What it means for you
If you play on Switch 2, Thursday, October 29 is the day to plan around, and a second wave follows on November 5 and 6. PS5 players have two games to look at this week, Phantom Blade 0 and The Wolf Among Us Remastered. Xbox players have one this week, The Wolf Among Us Remastered, and Edge of Memories follows on November 5. Release dates can change, so confirm on your platform's store before launch day.
