Happy New Year (2026)!

ByMeghan Sullivan

Happy New Year, everyone!

I’m so glad you are joining me here to celebrate all things video games and history. Last year was a bit chaotic and I didn’t post much here, but my goal for 2026 is to do monthly website updates so that you can follow along with all of my History N’ Games adventures.

Of course the BEST way to follow my adventures is to sign up for my monthly newsletter! This newsletter includes video game news, archeology news, and of course hyperlinks to my latest History N’ Games episodes. I hope you’ll sign up, and remember: if you have any questions or suggestions, email me at megnhistory@gmail.com.

Let’s make 2026 a great year! 🙂

Love,

Meghan
