Key Takeaways

📺 Anthem Servers Will Go Offline on January 12, 2026

Anthem servers will go offline on January 12, 2026, marking the end of BioWare's ambitious shared-world shooter. After a rocky launch in 2019 and EA's decision to halt Anthem's live-service development back in 2021, the game persisted only through its live servers. Now, as PC Gamer reports, those servers will finally be powered down. Fans who once rallied around the javelin-suiting action can no longer log in or continue their adventures once the countdown ends.


Anthem's story began with high expectations, punctuated by a cinematic debut that promised epic battles and a living world. You can revisit that launch excitement through the Anthem Official Cinematic Trailer (2018). Yet the gap between promise and delivery proved too wide, leading EA to shift focus elsewhere. If you've yet to say your goodbyes, now's the time to regroup your fireteam and enjoy the final missions before the end of line.

📺 New Silent Hill f Gameplay and Opening Sequence Revealed

Silent Hill f's opening was revealed at Anime Expo, and fans can now glimpse the eerie atmosphere that awaits on September 25, 2025. Konami treated attendees to the full sequence during their panel, showcasing the game's haunting visuals and atmospheric score. If you missed the live showcase, CGMagazine has the complete video, offering a spine-tingling primer on what's to come.


Silent Hill f's Japan-set spin-off promises to blend classic survival horror tropes with a fresh narrative. For those eager to dive in, the game will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on 25 September 2025. If you'd prefer to avoid spoilers until launch day, you might want to steer clear of the recent leak—VGC broke the story on the early footage—but if you can't wait, it's well worth a watch to whet your appetite.

📺 Final Fantasy IX Fans Speculate on a Remake Announcement

Final Fantasy IX fans are buzzing after Square Enix released their 25th Anniversary Special Movie for the beloved PS1 classic. Every new piece of artwork or video—like the FINAL FANTASY IX 25th Anniversary Special Movie—sends speculation into overdrive about a potential remake. Game Rant highlights how this renewed interest has "fuelled remake rumors", pointing to community discussions and petitions as evidence that the demand may finally reach critical mass.


While Square Enix hasn't officially greenlit a full remake, the company's willingness to revisit its back catalog suggests nothing is off the table. Should an announcement drop, expect a flurry of coverage here on Gaming News. Until then, the best you can do is revisit the original on modern platforms or dive into fan mods that enhance textures and gameplay.
