The Future Games Show Spring Showcase 2026, hosted by Shai Matheson and Devora Wilde, showcased a variety of upcoming releases. The event opened with the cooperative horror Cordura and included a new trailer for Stupid Never Dies and the In The Jungle expansion for Dave the Diver. A remake of The 7th Guest was also revealed, along with gameplay from the indie Project Shadowglass. The presentation offered dates and announcements for PC and consoles.
Remakes and the evolution of graphics technology 🎨
The announcement of the full remake of The 7th Guest, a pioneering CD-ROM title from 1993, marks a technical milestone. The current adaptation will require rebuilding the assets from scratch, which originally used real actor video over digital backgrounds. This process contrasts with Project Shadowglass, whose gameplay showcased a medieval aesthetic generated with modern engines, prioritizing immersion through current simulation and physics systems.
Zombies, sharks, and blocks: the success formula 🧩
The logic behind the announcements seems infallible. If a game about a diver managing a sushi restaurant worked, adding a jungle expansion is the natural next step. Combining zombies with an RPG system, as in Stupid Never Dies, also has a proven track record. And if all else fails, you can always rely on a superhero made of plastic blocks to save sales. Diversity is key, even if it sometimes feels like a predictable cocktail.
