Competition is strong in the world of soccer video games. EA Sports FC, which has taken over from the popular FIFA series, is up against rivals like eFootball (formerly Pro Evolution Soccer), UFL, and ReMatch. The newest installment, EA Sports FC 26, isn’t launching smoothly, with many players experiencing issues like black screens and crashes. Fortunately, a simple fix seems to be working for a lot of them.

Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to changing your wallpaper on iOS 26 after the latest update:

Every year, the most popular part of the game is Ultimate Team. This makes sense, because it lets you build a team of players from around the globe, trade in a virtual transfer market, compete online, and earn rewards by completing challenges – like customizing your club’s name.

Earning FC 26 (FIFA) points is simple: just play the game! You might be thinking you already do, and you’re right. The next step is just patience – you need to wait for the right time. EA announced in their FC 26 launch update post that:

The announcement of *Dragon Quest VII Reimagined* during the September 2025 Nintendo Direct led many to wonder why the seventh game in the series was getting a remake before *Dragon Quest* IV, V, and VI. Series creator Yuji Horii actually addressed this question during a recent Japanese livestream.

So, Marvelous just announced some cool news! They said both *Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma* and *Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar* have each sold over half a million copies worldwide – that’s on the Switch, the new Switch 2, and Steam, which is awesome! And get this, they’re teasing a special collab with some free DLC coming soon. I’ve seen the announcement art, and it looks pretty neat!

Okay, fellow gamers, listen up! Square Enix is releasing a new album with 12 tracks from Chrono Trigger, and it’s mostly character themes – super cool! It’s coming out in Japan this November for 3,300 Yen plus tax. Big thanks to Nova Crystallis for letting me know! You can check out the cover art and full track list on the Square Enix website.

I finally jumped into the *Trails* series with *Trails in the Sky: 1st Chapter*, which is a remake of the original *Trails in the Sky FC* from 2004. It’s had a few releases over the years, but this remake felt like the perfect place to start, and I’m completely new to the whole franchise. Honestly, the scope of the series always intimidated me – thirteen games, roughly 1000 hours of playtime if you don’t even count the spin-offs or the older *Legend of Heroes* titles! My friends are huge fans, and I always figured it was too big of a commitment to get into. But after playing this *Trails 1st* remake, I have to admit, I was totally wrong. It’s completely hooked me!
