Class of 2026 Rolls Into Summer — Project Sunrise Grad Party, Biddeford, Maine

For the third year running, Coach Eric and the Rolling Video Games+VRcade crew rolled up to Biddeford, Maine for Project Sunrise — and the freshly minted Class of 2026 did not disappoint.

One day after crossing the stage, these graduates spent their first night of summer the right way — five hours of pure gaming, 6 to 11 Sunday night, with the trailer packed and the energy high.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, Forza Horizon 5, Mario Kart 8, Spiderman 2, Fortnite, and Just Dance 2021 all got their time — but Brawlhalla owned the night. At least two TVs running it from start to finish.

Three grads never left — they worked through every console and simulator twice. Meanwhile, one determined grad had one goal all night: get Coach Noa in a 1v1. He kept coming back until Noa finally agreed. As the crowd thinned out and things settled down, they squared off on Battlefront 2 on PS. Worth the wait.

Three years in a row means something. These kids were sophomores the first time we showed up in Biddeford — now they're graduates. That's a cool thing to be part of.
