This is a significant number of new releases, and it's likely that some of these titles will be popular among gamers. 2. **Tom Clancy's The Division 2 criticized for its portrayal of the military state**: A recent article by C-J Saldano from Game Critics highlights the controversy surrounding Tom Clancy's The Division 2, which is accused of perpetuating a militaristic narrative in video games. Saldano argues that the game presents an overly simplistic and inaccurate representation of the relationship between the government and its citizens. 3. **We Happy Few compared to Trump-era America**: Another article by David Bakker highlights the dystopian themes in We Happy Few, a game set in a totalitarian society where people are forced to take a mind-altering drug called Joy to conform to societal norms.
