The hack and slash genre, which gained prominence during the PlayStation 2 era through iconic titles like God of War and Devil May Cry, has seen a significant resurgence in 2026. Despite the rise of soulslike and roguelike genres, several new releases have revitalized this style of action-heavy gameplay.
Remedy Entertainment's Control Resonant shifts the franchise from its shooter roots to intense melee combat. Players control Dylan Faden, utilizing supernatural powers to execute brutal finishers. The game offers diverse build options, catering to both aerial combo enthusiasts and players who prefer heavy, impactful strikes.
Capcom revived the Onimusha series with Onimusha: Way of the Sword, which IGN Brazil describes as nearly perfect. The title features dynamic, aggressive combat and satisfying Issen mechanics, drawing comparisons to the experience of watching a high-quality shonen anime.
Marvel's Wolverine on PlayStation 5 provides visceral combat, though IGN Brazil notes its narrative is weaker than other 2026 titles. Meanwhile, Phantom Blade Zero, arriving October 28, is described as a hybrid genre title featuring choreographed boss battles and deep combat mechanics that defy simple categorization.
