I’ve played close to 150 new video games in 2026, but few of them have stuck in my mind quite like Zero Parades: For Dead Spies. What I thought might land with me as a pale follow-up to the sensational Disco Elysiumhas only cut deeper as I’ve spent time with a story of personal failure in a world built on betrayal. Every day, I feel more like Hershel Wilk, a disgraced spy who can’t seem to do right by anyone.
