The Clique is putting the industry on notice. We took a look at OkayPlayer’s list of the "30 Most Iconic Black Characters in Video Game History," and let’s say... we had some notes.

While we show love to the pioneers, we sat down to do what we do best: refine the rankings. We’ve narrowed it down to the 10 most influential Black characters and put them in their rightful order, from the "Certified Classics" to the "GOATs" who fundamentally changed the medium.

Is CJ from San Andreas still the king of the streets? Does Miles Morales take the top spot for the new generation? Or did Clementine from The Walking Dead out-hustle them all? We’re debating impact, cultural weight, and who actually has the best character arc (and who has a cool haircut).

• The List Audit: Why we think some of your favorites were ranked too low (or too high).

• The Top 10 Countdown: Our definitive ranking of Black excellence in gaming.

• The "Wait, Who?" Award: Iconic Characters that somehow missed the original cut.

• Culture & Critique: Why representation matters more than just a skin swap in 2026.

Whether you're a PS5 fanboy, an Xbox loyalist, or an Indie head, this is the deep dive the culture deserves. Grab your headset, ignore that lobby invite for twenty minutes, and tap in.

Let us know in the comments: Who is YOUR top-most iconic Black character of all time?

We’re looking into the crystal ball for 2026. This year is already feeling like a fever dream, so the Clique decided to sit down and place our bets on what’s actually going to go down in the industry.

From the "will-they-won't-they" drama of Grand Theft Auto VI to the financial soap opera over at Ubisoft, we aren't holding back. Grab some milk, because the takes are spicy.

• The GTA VI Countdown: Rockstar says November 19, 2026, but the panel is split. Is it actually dropping, or are we looking at "Spring 2027" in our nightmares?

• Fable & The Xbox Comeback: Playground Games is bringing us back to Albion this Autumn. Can it actually meet those massive Xbox expectations, or are we just going to spend the whole game kicking chickens in 4K?

• The Ubisoft Survival Guide: With stocks dipping and "Creative Houses" being built, we discuss if Ubisoft will still be a titan by December, or if we’re looking at a "For Sale" sign on the front door of the Assassin's Creed studio.

Who do you think has the wildest prediction this episode? What is your 2026 gaming "hot take.?" Will you be playing GTA VI on launch day, or do you think Rockstar is going to break our hearts one more time?

Forget fantasy football, the Clique just drafted VIDEO GAMES like our lives depended on it... because "something" does depend on it. Resident Evil Requiem, Marvel’s Wolverine, GTA VI, Saros… yeah, it got heated. We're talking trash, making bold picks, and praying our league mates don’t snatch my sleeper hits. 👀

This is the Fantasy Critic Draft Episode, where bragging rights are earned, friendships are tested, and somebody’s bound to regret passing on GTA VI.

It’s that time again... Game Clique is locking in the 2025 Power Rankings, and you already know the debates got spicy. From the hilarious story of Dispatch, to the controversial long-awaited Metroid Prime 4 Beyond, to the chaotic pocket monster drama in Pokémon Z‑A, we’re putting every contender under the microscope. And yes, we had to talk about the haunting vibes of Silent Hill f and the artsy flex of Clair Obscur Expedition 33, because if you’re not arguing about existential French RPGs, are you even gaming?

Expect laughs, side‑eyes, and at least one of us threatening to flip the table when their fave doesn’t make Top 10. This episode is basically the Super Bowl of gaming arguments, minus the nachos (but feel free to bring your own).
