The State of Decay series is famous for its thrilling zombie survival gameplay, where players explore a vast world, search for supplies, and build up a base to protect against hordes of the undead. Starting with the first game in 2013, the series became a leader in cooperative survival games, especially with the release of State of Decay 2 in 2018. Now, with this early playtest of State of Decay 3, players are finally getting a first look at the new features and gameplay mechanics coming in the full game.

Tails of Fate aims to achieve a similar goal, and I’m confident its art style and animations will attract players. I had a chance to try it out at PAX East and discuss future plans with the developers. That conversation left me optimistic and excited about what this game could become.

Watching One Piece, it really feels like the Elbaph arc is wrapping up after all this time – over fifty chapters, in fact! It seems like just yesterday the Straw Hats arrived on the island and first encountered the giants. Things quickly escalated, and they ended up in a tough battle with the Holy Knights, who almost defeated some of the crew.

Hades 2 takes place several years after the events of the first game, where Zagreus reunited his parents. Their happiness led to the birth of Melinoe, Zagreus’s sister, but the peace didn’t last. Chronos, the Titan of Time and father of many gods, returned seeking revenge for how the gods treated him. He imprisoned Zagreus, Hades, and Persephone, and seized control of the Underworld. Luckily, the sorceress Hecate rescued Melinoe and raised her to become a powerful and skilled warrior. Hades 2 begins with Melinoe as a seasoned fighter, completely determined to defeat Chronos.

Few games have recovered as impressively as No Man’s Sky. When it first came out in 2016, the survival space game didn’t quite deliver on the high expectations of its fans. But the developers at Hello Games kept working on it, consistently adding substantial free updates. Now, almost ten years later, No Man’s Sky has become the game many fans originally hoped for, with a much richer and more expansive open world. This dedication even earned it the Best Ongoing Game award in 2025. Because of Hello Games’ commitment to its players, No Man’s Sky remains a popular title on platforms like Steam, where thousands still play it regularly.

Slasher films, known for their masked killers, violent scenes, and stories about teenagers, became incredibly popular in the 1980s with follow-up movies to classics like Halloween, Friday the 13th, and A Nightmare on Elm Street. Though often dismissed as low-quality, the genre experienced a successful revival with the release of Scream in the mid-1990s. Despite having its share of poorly made films and unnecessary sequels, the best slasher movies are both extremely gory and financially successful.

In Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen, the Master Ball is the best Poke Ball available, guaranteed to catch any Pokemon you use it on. However, you only get one Master Ball per game, so deciding when to use it is a big choice. Some players prefer to use it to catch the legendary dogs, while others save it for a different, potentially rarer, Pokemon.

Throughout the Dragon Ball series, we’ve seen Goku and Vegeta unlock increasingly powerful God forms – starting with Super Saiyan God, then Blue, Ultra Instinct, and finally Ultra Ego. These transformations have led to some incredibly devastating attacks. Let’s take a look at some of the most impressive ones.

Pokemon Pokopia shares many similarities with the Animal Crossing series, including special events that happen from time to time. As of now, Pokopia has hosted two such events. The first event involved players gathering cotton spores on Dream Islands to buy items from Hoppip, which were then used to create homes for its evolved forms. The second was an April Fools’ Day event where players answered trivia to earn an inflatable Sudowoodo decoration.
