While Pokopia's off to a great start. When Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen were announced for the Switch, it's safe to say that some folks weren't best please about the accompanying $19.99 / £16.99 price tag. After all, it's a pretty barebones port that clocks in at a whopping 33.4MB in storage. No filters or anything!

Action RPG Path of Exile 2 will very likely hit 1.0 by end of 2026, developers Grinding Gear Games have declared, following one last, endgame-focused early access update that introduces "over 50 hours" of new classes, areas and systems.
