You’re not always guaranteed to get the skins you want from the Night Market, but if you’re lucky enough to find one, you’ll get it for a significantly lower price.

Steam is the biggest online store for PC games, and thousands of new games are released there every year. In 2024, almost 19,000 games came out on Steam, and 2025 is already surpassing that number, even before the end of December. This trend of increasing releases continues from previous years. As more games are released, more of them are using content created by artificial intelligence (AI). Valve, the company behind Steam, has taken some measures to address this, like adding warnings, but some players believe more needs to be done.

Every month on the first Tuesday, PlayStation adds new games for its PS Plus members (Essential, Extra, and Premium). While some months offer better selections than others, December was particularly exciting – PlayStation surprised everyone with five games instead of the usual three! Until January 6th, subscribers can download and keep LEGO Horizon Adventures, Killing Floor 3, The Outlast Trials, Synduality Echo of Ada, and Neon White as long as they remain PlayStation Plus members. Don’t forget to add them to your library before the next set of games is released, or you’ll miss out!

If you’ve been meaning to try some classic games but haven’t had much time, here’s some good news! These titles can all be completed in under three hours. Despite their short length, they’re surprisingly impactful and might even change the way you think about games. You can finish them over a weekend or whenever you have a free moment, and they’re all fantastic.

I’ve noticed Jinwoo is a really striking character – confident, seemingly unbothered, and incredibly powerful. It’s not surprising he’s become so popular, and fans even voted him the best main character of 2025! But honestly, while he’s great, I think other anime protagonists, both classic and more recent, are actually more compelling. He falls a little short when compared to some of the best.

I just heard the really sad news – Ken Watanabe passed away this morning. Apparently, he was in California with his family and sadly didn’t make it after some health complications from a stroke. He was only 75, which is so young. It’s a huge loss, I loved his work!

The PS5 has had a remarkable year, marking its fifth anniversary and nearing the total sales of the PlayStation 3. As of June, over 80 million PS5 consoles had been sold worldwide, putting it halfway to the incredible sales numbers of the PlayStation 2. Even with these successes, the PS5 has faced strong competition, sometimes from surprising sources.

Environmental storytelling looks different in every game, especially within open-world titles. A bleak, post-apocalyptic world will feel very different from a modern city, but both can offer optional discoveries and quests that players enjoy. Most gamers are eager to explore their surroundings, and it’s the game’s job to make that exploration worthwhile.

Leaks and data found within Pokemon Legends: Z-A suggest the upcoming DLC will include 19 new Mega Evolutions, with six already revealed. Since these revealed forms were part of the original leak, it’s likely the remaining predictions are accurate too. The DLC will also bring back some Mega Evolutions from the Pokemon X and Y generation that weren’t available in the base game, giving players a wide variety of strong options for their teams. These 8 Pokemon are expected to be top-tier choices for competitive ranked battles when the DLC releases.
