Monster Hunter Stories 3, Pokopia and more launching in March 2026

March 2026 is shaping up to be an exciting month for gamers. After a strong start to the year, several major titles are arriving across consoles and PC, offering everything from emotional storytelling to massive adventures and online experiences.

Whether you enjoy story-driven games, strategy, cosy worlds, or action-packed challenges, there’s plenty to look forward to.

Here’s a detailed look at some of the biggest game releases coming in March 2026.

6. Life is Strange: Reunion (March 26, 2026)

Life is Strange Reunion

Life is Strange: Reunion brings back Max and Chloe for what is being presented as the emotional conclusion to their story. The game continues directly from the events of the original title and Double Exposure, returning to the series’ focus on difficult choices, emotional consequences, and character-driven storytelling.

In this chapter, Chloe reappears in Max’s life under mysterious circumstances, questioning her own memories and the events surrounding her past. As strange occurrences begin to unfold, Max must face decisions that could put relationships—and an entire college campus—at risk.

Platforms: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC

5. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach (PC Release – March 19, 2026)

After its successful PlayStation 5 launch, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach arrives on PC. Directed by Hideo Kojima, the game follows Sam Bridges as he works to reconnect the chiral network across new regions, including Mexico and Australia.

The PC version delivers the same experience as the console release, without additional story content or new gameplay features. Players can expect the same cinematic storytelling, atmospheric exploration, and strategic delivery mechanics.

Platform: PC

4. Slay the Spire 2 (Early Access – March 5, 2026)

The acclaimed deck-building roguelite returns with a bigger and deeper sequel. Set 1,000 years after the first game, the mysterious Spire has reopened—more dangerous than ever.

Players will encounter new characters, expanded card mechanics, and individual storylines for each hero. Strategy, planning, and a bit of luck remain at the core of the experience.

Platform: PC (Early Access)

3. Marathon (March 5, 2026)

Bungie returns to one of its classic franchises with a modern twist. Marathon is a live-service multiplayer shooter designed around competitive and cooperative online play.

The game aims to deliver a long-term online experience that combines fast-paced action, team strategy, and evolving content. Despite some industry debate around live-service models, anticipation remains high.

Platforms: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC

2. Pokémon Pokopia (March 5, 2026)

Taking a relaxed approach, Pokémon Pokopia focuses on building and restoring life on a deserted island. Instead of playing as a trainer, you control a Ditto that can transform into a human and copy the abilities of nearby Pokémon.

The game blends elements of life simulation, crafting, and open-ended exploration. Pokémon remain free on the island and act as companions rather than captured creatures.

Platform: Nintendo Switch 2 (exclusive)

1. Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection (March 13, 2026)

One of the biggest releases of the month, Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection, continues the story-driven spin-off series. The narrative centers around the birth of twin Rathalos marked by the mysterious Skyscale symbol, linked to a disaster from centuries ago.

The sequel introduces new monsters, expanded regions to explore, and a more cinematic storyline while keeping the turn-based combat and creature bonding that fans love.

Platforms: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, PC
