We hope you didn’t have any major plans for March, because the month ahead is loaded with new games to try out. After a relatively subdued January and February, it feels like the 2026 gaming year is finally kicking off, as the next couple of weeks will see the release of high-profile games, interesting indies, and a whole lot more spread across the next 31 days. The month starts with a bang thanks to World of Warcraft’s Midnight expansion and Bungie’s extraction shooter Marathon, with the action shifting to a remake of the cult-classic horror game Fatal Frame 2, zombie-slaying on a grand scale in John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando, and a chance to main event Wrestlemania in WWE 2K26.
Toward the end of the month, there’s even more to look forward to, with Crimson Desert and Legacy of Kain: Ascendance aiming to monopolize all of your free time. We’ve rounded up everything you can look forward to in the March games release calendar, and for a broader look at what’s still to come, you can also check out GameSpot’s 2026 upcoming games calendar.
Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered
- Release date: March 2
- Platforms: PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Switch
Not one but two Legacy of Kain games in one month? It must be Christmas! The remaster of the first two Soul Reaver games was a nostalgic treat, and at long last, the final game in that series is getting a glow-up. You can expect all the usual visual and audio tweaks to bring the 2003 game up to scratch, as well as ye olde visuals if you want to play the game as it was originally presented back in the day. As a special treat for the cartographer sickos out there, the map of Nosgoth is getting a big upgrade and will be loaded with new details to help you keep track of everything.
World of Warcraft: Midnight
- Release date: March 2
- Platforms: PC
World of Warcraft’s 11th expansion–count ’em, 11–kicks off a busy March and marks a major return to one of Azeroth’s most iconic settings: Quel’Thalas. Players will have their work cut out for them as they form an alliance to push back a massive Void invasion, and Blizzard is also introducing several major gameplay features, progression updates, and refreshed onboarding systems for both new and returning players.
Scott Pilgrim EX
- Release date: March 3
- Platforms: PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Switch
It wasn’t too long ago that Netflix brought Bryan Lee O’Malley’s two-fisted hero Scott Pilgrim back into the spotlight with a well-received animated series, and at long last, the Toronto native is back for another retro-inspired beat-’em-up adventure. After his bandmates are kidnapped, Pilgrim and Ramona Flowers hit the streets for a battle against time and space against gangs of demons, robots, and–andmost nefarious of all–vegans. The game will feature seven playable characters–each with their own arsenal of special attacks–and up to four-player offline and online co-op.
Slay the Spire 2
- Release date: March 5
- Platforms: PC via Steam Early Access
The first Slay the Spire game helped usher in a new subgenre of deckbuilding roguelikes and, at long last, Slay the Spire launches in Steam Early Access this month. The big draw for this early slice of the game will be a feature that wasn’t included in the first game: co-op. Developer Mega Crit says that up to four players can battle it out, and the mode will feature multiplayer-specific cards and powerful team synergies.
Marathon
- Release date: March 5
- Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S
After several controversies and a lengthy delay, Marathon is finally ready for release in March. The next big game from Destiny 2 studio Bungie will see players head to the distant world of Tau Ceti IV to take part in an age-old pursuit: Grabbing loot and gunning down anyone who gets in the way of your lucrative haul in this extraction shooter. The Sony-published game features a striking art direction, a variety of Runner Shells that can be fine-tuned to suit your playstyle, and Bungie’s signature gunplay looks rock-solid. The only question is, can Marathon keep its momentum going in a post-Arc Raiders world?
Planet of Lana 2: Children of the Leaf
- Release date: March 5
- Platforms: PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Switch 2, Switch
2023’s Planet of Lana was a surprise treat, a deft mix of puzzles, platforming, and atmospheric storytelling set against the backdrop of an alien invasion. The sequel picks up the story two years later, and after going through hell and back in the first game, Lana and her cat-like companion Mui are back and ready for another adventure where the very soul of their planet is at stake. Built around the gameplay pillars of companionship and trust, Planet of Lana 2 sees the duo embark on a journey to unravel a secret history and discover the truth behind Mui’s origins.
Pokemon Pokopia
- Release date: March 5
- Platforms: Switch 2
The Pokemon franchise has ventured into several different genres across the decades, but for the next game, it’s venturing into Minecraft territory with a cute crafting game. Featuring a colorful art direction that distracts players from the dark truth that something has caused humanity to vanish off the face of the Poke-Earth, Pokemon Pokopia puts you in the genetically malleable body of a Ditto that works to restore the land and inspire other Pokemon to return.
Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake
- Release date: March 12
- Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2
Lights, Camera Obscura, action! Long considered to be one of the best survival-horror games of the early 2000s, Fatal Frame 2 is making a comeback with a brand-new remake. If you never played the original, Fatal Frame 2 follows twin sisters who become lost in an abandoned village. Even worse, vengeful spirits are haunting the place, and the only way to fight back is with a magical camera that can capture ghosts and seal them away. The remake will offer updated visuals and quality-of-life gameplay improvements, as well as a new gameplay mechanic designed to emphasize the deep bond between the sisters.
GreedFall 2: The Dying World

John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando
- Release date: March 12
- Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S
You can never have too many co-op zombie shooters in life, and John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando looks like a fun mix of over-the-top action and vehicular mayhem. You might want to switch to a tank top for this game, as Saber Interactive is planning to make you sweat by throwing an absurd number of the undead at you with its proprietary Swarm Engine. Described as a love letter to ’80s horror and over-the-top action films like Big Trouble in Little China, expect the action to ramp up to armpit-moistening levels when the zombie hordes descend on you.
WWE 2K26
- Release date: March 13
- Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection follows an all-new story and cast of characters, and it also has a unique gameplay mechanic centered around habitat preservation and restoration, making each Monstie feel like an essential part of an interdependent ecosystem. Outside of this new eco-friendly idea, you can still team up with Monsties in turn-based combat and use their special abilities to help you explore a vibrant world.
Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War
- Release date: March 16
- Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2
The only good bug is a dead bug, and in Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War, you’ll have the opportunity to take down legions of Klendathu’s nastiest multi-legged critters. Designed to look and feel like a late ’90s shooter by Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun developer Auroch Digital, the game has large areas full of missions, bugs, and FMVs featuring General Johnny Rico, who actor Casper Van Dien once again plays. Do you want to know more?

You can even put your best coaching foot forward in the new Trade Logic System and see if you have what it takes to be a baseball general manager.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach
- Release date: March 19
- Platforms: PC
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach was easily one of the weirdest games of 2025, and this month, PC gamers will get to experience all of that absurdity for themselves. A post-apocalyptic jaunt across Australia, Hideo Kojima’s sequel makes trekking across an unforgiving wilderness populated by ghosts, hand-monsters, and his celebrity pals a fun and scenic experience. It’s those moments of solitude where Death Stranding 2 shines–but we’re not discounting the cool choreographed dance sequences or guitar battles–and PC gamers will get to enjoy the view thanks to several platform-exclusive features.
Crimson Desert
- Release date: March 19
- Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S
The successor to Black Desert Online, Crimson Desert shifts gears from its predecessor’s MMORPG design to give players an open-world single-player action-RPG experience.

As both Max and Chloe, players will use their unique Rewind and Backtalk powers to prevent a deadly tragedy.
Opus: Prism Peak
- Release date: March 26
- Platforms: PC, Switch 2, Switch
Another shooter game to look forward to this month–but with cameras, not guns–is Opus: Prism Peak. Looking like a lost film from the Studio Ghibli archives, Opus: Prism Peak puts you in the shoes of Eugene, a burnt-out photographer stranded in the strange Dusklands. After meeting a young girl who has lost her memories, the two team up to uncover the mysteries of the land through a camera lens, commune with local spirits, and reach the distant Dusk Mountain.
Screamer
- Release date: March 26
- Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S
Science has definitely proven that anime and arcade-racing games are pretty awesome, so combining the two should be a sure-fire recipe for success. Developer Milestone SRL is aiming to do just that with Screamer, a revival of a cult-classic racing game that has gotten an anime-inspired makeover, as players will get to experience a dark storyline told from several different viewpoints in the game’s single-player campaign. Additionally, the game will offer several different modes outside of the campaign, testing your skills behind the wheel of a slick hypercar as you race against the clock.

There’s a new Super Mario Bros. Movie out this month, and to paraphrase the Beastie Boys, it’s looking to go intergalactic andinterplanetary. Strangely, there’s no new Mario game to launch alongside, but a big Switch 2 update for the superb Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a nice consolation prize. It’s a Mario party, and everybody is invited, as the Bellabel Park expansion adds a new plaza to explore, all sorts of performance improvements, new adventures and activities, 17 new multiplayer minigames, and Rosalina as a playable character.
Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage
- Release date: March 26

Legacy of Kain: Ascendance
- Release date: March 31
- Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, Switch
The current trend in video games is coming into focus, as retro-inspired sequels and prequels to legacy games seem to be the in-thing right now. We already kicked off the year with a new God of War game, Sons of Sparta, in this style, and Legacy of Kain: Ascendance is the next fan-favorite IP to get this pixel-art treatment. Set during Kain’s campaign to conquer Nosgoth, expect a short–but sweet–experience as you command the legendary vampire lord, Raziel, during his Seraphan days, and the newcomer Elaleth.
We hope you didn’t have any major plans for March, because the month ahead is loaded with new games to try out.
