The NACON Connect 2026 showcase presented three new games, new updates, and brand-new hardware that NACON fans can expect coming this year.
NACON Connect is an annual showcase bringing fans a look at what the company has been up to, and will be offering today and later this year. The reveals include several new game announcements and updates, with some games based on the World of Darkness setting, along with some new controllers.
Hunter: The Reckoning – Deathwish
From developer Teyon and straight out of the World of Darkness setting comes Hunter: The Reckoning: Deathwish, a game based on the TTRPG of the same name. As a regular human investigating a world of monsters, you need to take care with how you approach each mission, with plenty of options, including stealth, violence and speech.
Character creation is taken straight out of the TTRPG rulebook, with extensive cosmetic customization and different skills to build your investigator exactly how you want. Plenty of NPCs will join you, oppose you and interact with you, with plenty of branching pathways influenced by how you carry out your investigation. Hunter: The Reckoning: Deathwish is expected to be released in summer 2027 for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam.
Dracula: The Disciple
Dracula: The Disciple is a first-person puzzle-vania from developer Artefacts Studio. Taking on the role of Émile Valombres, players travel to Count Dracula’s castle in Transylvania to find a cure for his newfound vampirism. Experimentation looks to be a core part of the game, with plenty of scientific and occult practices involved to help get Émile closer to his goal, all while he turns further into a vampire. The game will be released sometime in 2027 for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam.

Pre-alpha gameplay for Werewolf: The Apocalypse: Rageborn was shown alongside an interview with Louis Lamarche, president and creative director at creā-ture Studios. The game is an action-adventure title based directly on Werewolf: The Apocalypse 5th edition from the World of Darkness franchise.
The player character, Taylor, not only has tools, but also three forms: human, wolf and werewolf. The werewolf form is the powerhouse, with strong melee attacks. The human form has access to ranged attacks for hard-to-reach enemies like drones, and the wolf form has the fastest movement for traversing most of the terrain-based challenges featured in the game, with all three forms needing to be mastered for certain encounters. Werewolf: The Apocalypse: Rageborn will be released sometime in 2027 for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC via Steam.

The recently released GreedFall: The Dying World got a trailer showing off its new Peren’s Black Mass Quest as part of an update that just released. The game will also have a free weekend on Steam between May 13 – 17.
The Mound: Omen Of Cthulhu
The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu got an extensive gameplay showcase that went over the main map and mechanics of the game. Players will explore a jungle that does not want them there, as the natural landscape awakens and hunts the intruders. With some monsters too much to handle, survival was highlighted as the main priority to ensure players can bring back their treasures. The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu will be released July 15 for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, with a demo coming soon.
That pretty much wraps up all the news from this year’s NACON Connect. Fans looking to get their hands on those new controllers, or wishlist the new game reveals can visit NACON’s official website.
