by Eric Van Allen on Aug 14, 2026 at 02:28 PM

We may be halfway through August, but the crushing wave of games trying to get out before Grand Theft Auto 6 is cresting just ahead. So today, on The Game Informer Show, we've got a few looks ahead at some big name titles!

First up, Eric shares his thoughts after some hands-on preview time with Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, the massive new installment in Nintendo's strategy RPG franchise. Then, Marcus returns from Amsterdam with impressions of 1666: Amsterdam. I promise, you won't see the turns in that segment coming. After the break, we talk about the launch of Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, and Charles shares some early impressions of the 1.0 launch for Fields of Mistria. Grab a cold drink and listen in!
