When I first saw Satoru Gojo, with his white hair and blindfold, my immediate thought – and the thought of many anime fans, I suspect – was ‘upside down Kakashi’ from Naruto. He’s a powerful fighter in his twenties who guides a group of young heroes, and the covered eye just sealed the deal. But as Kakashi himself would advise, you have to look deeper. While Jujutsu Kaisen‘s author, Gege Akutami, clearly drew inspiration from Naruto on multiple occasions, the connection to Gojo isn’t just about Kakashi. It turns out Gojo’s design is actually a tribute to a much more obscure Naruto character – one that even the original author, Masashi Kishimoto, apparently forgot: Tonbo Tobitake.

In addition to the three games already announced for the event, rumors are circulating about a possible fourth, unannounced title. Discussions online, including reports from VGC and hints from insider shinobi602, suggest there might be a surprise reveal. However, details are currently unconfirmed and speculative. While fans are eagerly guessing what this fourth game could be, recent information suggests tempering expectations, as sources have clarified details about this ‘secret’ title.

Just before the end of 2025, players discovered a new mystery in Red Dead Redemption 2. They noticed spider webs appearing in the game at particular spots and times. When mapped out, these webs aligned with a spider carving on a telegraph pole near Cornwall Kerosene & Tar. Gamers have been actively trying to solve this puzzle, and progress is being made as they share discoveries. Many were surprised to find completely new content in Red Dead Redemption 2, so long after the game first came out in 2018.

First released for the SNES in 1994, Final Fantasy 6 is widely considered a classic RPG and a fan favorite in the Final Fantasy series. The game follows a diverse group of heroes – including the mysterious Terra and the adventurous Locke – as they fight against the powerful Gestahlian Empire and the villainous Kefka Palazzo. With its engaging Active Time Battle system, customizable magic, and memorable story, Final Fantasy 6 remains a fantastic RPG experience for players today.

The Winter 2026 anime season is really delivering! Shows like Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Season 2, and Hell’s Paradise Season 2 are keeping me hooked, but honestly, there’s nothing quite like settling in with a great movie when it’s cold outside. I’ve been checking out some of the best anime films ever made, and luckily, these 5 are all available on Netflix right now.

The 2010s were an amazing time for fans of shonen anime, with many hugely popular shows premiering and really shaping the future of the medium. It was hard to choose, but here’s a look at some of the best shonen anime that debuted each year of the decade.

So, it looks like there were layoffs at the company – I first saw the news over on Game Developer. A bunch of former employees are posting on LinkedIn, and it’s pretty rough. Apparently, the Art Director and Director of Design at the San Francisco studio were among those affected. It’s never good to see people lose their jobs, especially talented folks like that.

I’m getting a gut feeling about this, more than anything. EA’s new Skate game keeps pushing the idea of “Skater Eyes,” and while the term is a little awkward, I think there’s something to it. We, as gamers, can usually spot something that’s made with AI, or when a game’s marketing feels inauthentic—especially when things seem too good to be true, like with games such as The Day Before and MindsEye. There’s often a mix of excitement and skepticism around these titles, and I’m feeling both. Let’s take a closer look, and you can tell me if my doubts are unwarranted.

LEGO’s new Smart Play system is designed to take the classic building experience to the next level. At its heart is the Smart Brick – a standard-looking 2×8 brick that contains a tiny computer, sensors for sound, light, and movement, and wireless charging. This brick communicates with special LEGO pieces – Smart Tags and Smart Minifigures – to create exciting effects like sounds and reactions to how kids play, bringing a whole new dimension to building since LEGO began in 1949.

Samsung’s Galaxy S series is its most advanced line of smartphones, and the next version is expected to be announced shortly. While details about new features and specifications are still unknown, the release date has been confirmed.
