Mewgenics, the newest game from Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel (Binding of Issac, The End is Nigh), is about to release and is already on track to be one of the best games of 2026. With an official release date of Feb. 10, Mewgenics has earned a 90 score on Metacritic based on early-access reviews.
2026 will be a year of stiff competition, with juggernauts like Grand Theft Auto 6 and Resident Evil 9: Requiem set to dominate the conversation in the coming months. However, it seems Mewgenics has already placed itself ahead of the (cat) pack with an incredibly favorable early reaction, which will likely hold steady as McMillen and Glaiel’s dedicated fanbase get their paws on it.
