One of the earliest and most popular science fiction subgenres, the “space opera” tells a sprawling epic story across multiple planets. Frank Herbert’s Dune seriesand the Star Wars franchise are among the most famous examples, but other classic book series include the works of Isaac Asimov, Larry Niven, Dan Simmons, and Iain M. Banks. If you’re looking for a new adventure combining space battles and galactic politics, there are plenty of worlds to explore.

It feels like forever ago (cue up a cigarette drag), but looking back, 2025 was an uncharacteristically stacked year for new video games. Kirby Air Ride got a decades-overdue sequel! Battlefield 6 was actually good! Blue Princeredefined puzzle games! Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 — can you believe that only just came out last year? (Cue up another cigarette drag.)

Square Enix’s upcoming title dropped a new trailer, and it’s just as good as the one we told you about sometime last month.

Final Fantasy Resonance is out on October 22nd for Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, and PS5. Stay tuned for even more character highlights ahead of launch.
