Welcome to The AI
Consensus—where I
ask multiple AI
agents one very
serious question:

Which five games
make 2026 feel
impossible to skip?

I’m Anagam
Savchuck—pro gamer,
game curator, and
apparently the human
assigned to
translate robot
enthusiasm into a
watchlist.

First, a quick
disclaimer: after
reviewing this list,
I may have confused
the studio with a
tutorial level.

That is not a Q
Branch scanner. It
is… my air purifier.

Anagam has already
accepted a side
quest that nobody
gave her.

The agents argued,
compared notes, and
somehow agreed on
five games with
wildly different
vibes.

Let’s count down the
consensus—starting
with a license to
become legendary.

Number five: 007
First Light

This is the James
Bond origin story
we’ve never been
able to play before.

Instead of arriving
as a flawless
legend, you begin as
a rookie earning the
right to become 007.

The appeal is
choice: sneak past
guards, talk your
way through a party,
improvise with
gadgets—or make the
entire room regret
underestimating you.

Tonight, I am
definitely a
glamorous undercover
operative.

Please ignore that I
just called the
catering route a
stealth build.

More open than a
scripted action
ride, but more
cinematic than a
pure sandbox
infiltration game.

The fantasy is not
just shooting—it’s
feeling clever
enough to survive
the room.

Number four:
Pragmata

A gorgeous sci-fi
adventure where
hacking and combat
happen at the same
time.

Its big idea is
beautifully
stressful: fight
with one hand, solve
the hacking puzzle
with the other.

Imagine dodging a
robot’s attack while
your tiny android
teammate rewires its
defenses in real
time.

I’m multitasking so
hard that my brain
has opened a support
ticket.

But that fusion of
action and strategy
is exactly why
Pragmata stands out.

Pragmata makes 
every encounter
feel like
a tiny sci-fi
emergency
meeting—with lasers.

And beneath the
mechanics, it has
room for a real
partnership between
its human explorer
and android
companion.

Number three:
Resident Evil
Requiem.

It promises the
perfect blend of
survival-horror fear
and full-throttle
Leon Kennedy action.

One route tightens
the screws with
dread and scarce
resources. The other
lets the action
explode.

Requiem looks built
for people who want
both sides of
Resident Evil.

Sometimes you count
every bullet.
Sometimes you become
the reason the
monsters need a safe
room.

Real-world note:
this hallway is my
studio. Game-world
note: absolutely do
not open that door.

Two protagonists, a
stronger link to
Raccoon City, and
switching
perspectives on the
fly make this feel
bigger than a single
haunted-house
escape.

My recommendation:
play it with the
lights low. My
personal
recommendation: keep
one friend
emotionally on
standby.

Number two: Mina
the Hollower.

It feels like a lost
handheld classic
that came back from
the grave with
modern action
design.

Think Zelda-style
exploration,
Castlevania
atmosphere, and a
wonderfully gothic
personality all its
own.

The signature move?
Burrowing
underground—part
escape button, part
shortcut, part
invitation to hunt
for secrets.

I went underground
for one second and
emerged in what I’m
pretty sure is my
own cable
management drawer.

That’s the magic:
every corner looks
like it might hide a
boss, a shortcut, or
something
wonderfully cursed.

Mina the Hollower is
retro without being
trapped in the past.

It trades the
familiar
side-scrolling
formula for a
secret-filled
top-down world made
for curious players.

And number one:
Big Walk.

A co-op adventure
where communication
itself becomes the
puzzle.

The world is huge,
your friends are
somewhere over
there, and suddenly
a walkie-talkie is
more valuable than a
legendary sword.

Big Walk is not
really about
defeating the world.
It is about trying
to describe where
you are before your
friends walk
confidently in the
wrong direction.

I said, ‘Follow the
glowing mushroom!’

Why are there three
glowing mushrooms?
This is now a
team-building
exercise.

Less chaotic than a
betrayal game, less
survival-focused
than a
monster-hunting
co-op—but perfect
for hilarious
moments that only
happen with friends.

If your group enjoys
getting pleasantly
lost together, this
may be 2026’s best
excuse to stay on
voice chat.

That’s the AI
Consensus for 2026:
rookie spies, lunar
hackers, horror
survivors, gothic
burrowers, and
friends shouting
directions into
walkie-talkies.

Different genres.
Different moods. One
shared promise:
games that give us
stories worth
getting absorbed in.

Anagam has
successfully
returned to reality.
Probably.

Next episode, I’m
going seriously
retro: the games
that still feel
magical decades
after their first
start screen.

If this storage box
contains a legendary
artifact, I will
absolutely open it.

It contains old
controller cables.
The side quest
continues.
