Okay, so Silksong finally dropped after all those years of waiting, and honestly, it’s been amazing! I’ve been totally hooked, and it looks like millions of others are too – over 7 million copies sold, plus tons of us are playing it through Game Pass. It even got nominated for Game of the Year at The Game Awards, which is huge! It didn’t win – Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 took that one – but Silksong is definitely one of the biggest games of the year. Now that so many of us are exploring Pharloom with Hornet, some seriously crazy challenges are popping up online, which is awesome to watch!

In ARC Raiders, getting around effectively involves two main areas: fighting and exploring. Certain skills are more useful for navigating the map, especially when dealing with heights, while others give you a big advantage in combat with just a few extra button presses. No matter your skill level – whether you’re a new player or a veteran – mastering these movement techniques is crucial for success. They can dramatically improve your performance, even after many hours of gameplay.

In Pokemon Legends: Z-A, players can encounter Pokemon originally from Pokemon X and Y, like the first three starter Pokemon: Chespin, Fennekin, and Froakie. The Mega Dimension DLC adds even more Pokemon to the mix, including different regional forms of Pokemon like Meowth, Slowpoke, and Mr. Mime. With a total of 364 catchable Pokemon in the game and its DLC, choosing a team can be tough. However, many players have already discovered which Pokemon they like best.

After a long wait, players can now decorate personal housing in World of Warcraft as of Patch 11.2.7, which is currently in early access. The game features thousands of collectible decorations—everything from furniture like beds and chairs to collectibles like trophies and even functional items like mailboxes. While many decorations are purely cosmetic, some offer small interactions—like secret compartments in bookshelves or chairs you can sit in—the only items with a practical use are pots, which are used for cooking.

Movie trilogies have been consistently popular with both filmmakers and viewers. Some directors even film multiple movies simultaneously and release them close together. Here, we’re highlighting the best movie trilogies from the last 30 years. This list includes standout stories across various genres—from superhero action and animated fun to gripping crime dramas, heartfelt romances, and grand fantasy epics—all released since 1995.

Okay, so EA’s finally going private after that huge $55 billion deal! It’s all happening thanks to this group backed by Saudi Arabia. Basically, the Public Investment Fund (PIF) is taking the lead with a massive 93.7% ownership. It’s kinda cool actually, because the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman, is a big gamer himself! This isn’t the first time they’ve gotten involved with gaming companies either. They already own most of SNK – the folks who made classics like Fatal Fury and King of Fighters. Plus, they’ve got smaller investments in Nintendo, Take-Two, and Capcom, so they’re clearly serious about the industry.

2026 looks like a fantastic year for PlayStation 5 owners. If there aren’t any setbacks, Grand Theft Auto 6 is expected to be released before the end of the year, alongside the highly anticipated Marvel’s Wolverine from the creators of Spider-Man, Insomniac Games. And right now, PS5 players have five major games to enjoy in January.

Considered by many to be the greatest manga ever created, One Piece has captivated audiences since its debut in 1997. Created by the renowned Eiichiro Oda, the series has run for nearly 28 years and is expected to continue for several more. With over 1200 chapters released, One Piece is nearing its long-awaited conclusion. Luffy and his Straw Hat crew are getting closer to fulfilling their dreams, and while challenges remain, the ending that Oda has planned is now within reach.

Though not strictly a horror character, Samus Aran from the Metroid series is definitely a gaming icon. Because she’s mostly silent, it’s difficult to compare her to other famous female characters known for their screams. This ranking will focus on how well-developed each character is and what they do, without revealing any plot details.

While PS Plus offers many advantages, the free monthly games are a major draw, and the best part is they’re included with all subscription levels – Essential, Extra, and Premium. Sony usually provides around three free games each month, and you can keep playing them as long as you remain a subscriber. However, throughout 2025, Sony didn’t always stick to this usual pattern.
