Marvel's Wolverine and Fire Emblem Lead This Week's New Game Releases

A roundup of new games arriving in Japan and North America for the week of September 14 to 18, 2026.

Reporting from 7 sources: 4Gamer.net, GAME Watch (Impress), Cinema Today, ASCII.jp, and 3 more.

Why it matters

The week's biggest title is a first-party PlayStation action game, while the Switch 2 side of the calendar is carried by a Fire Emblem release and a fighting-game reissue rather than by any new Nintendo hardware launch title.

Marvel's Wolverine is the only major PlayStation 5 release of the stretch, priced at 8,980 yen, with a setting that runs from Canadian snowfields to Tokyo alleys and the island nation of Madripoor, and a story built on Bolivar Trask abducting mutants while Logan rejoins Team X after three years away. Familiar names from the comics, among them Mystique, Sabretooth and Jean Grey, appear as co-fighters.

Trails in the Sky the 2nd continues the full remake project of the Trails series at 8,800 yen, following Estelle as she pursues Joshua, who vanished leaving only a harmonica, and stepping into the conspiracy of Ouroboros.
