Solo Leveling is widely considered the most popular anime of 2025. The second season, released in January, quickly became a huge hit, breaking viewership records on Crunchyroll each week.

PlayStation Plus members get a new selection of games to play each month. With the Premium tier, you can also access classic games from the original PlayStation, PS2, and PSP. This September, just in time for Halloween, PS Plus is adding several popular indie horror games, including *Conscript* and *Crow Country*. *Crow Country* is particularly well-liked, drawing inspiration from classic PlayStation horror games like *Silent Hill* and *Resident Evil*. In it, you play as investigator Mara Forest, uncovering the mysteries of an abandoned theme park. Other games available this month are *Persona 5 Tactica*, *The Invincible*, and *WWE 2K25*.

Lunatone and Solrock are highly sought-after Pokémon in *Pokémon GO*, and many players are trying to find them. They usually appear more often during special events as wild spawns, giving you a better chance to encounter them. This guide will show you how to catch Lunatone and Solrock, and whether or not their Shiny versions are available.

The Rasengan is a hugely popular technique, both in the original *Naruto* series and its sequel, *Boruto*. Originally created by Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage, it has since been improved upon, with the most recent version, the Rasengan Uzuhiko, appearing in *Boruto*. The Rasengan continues to develop over time, so it’s likely we’ll see even more powerful versions used by future characters after Boruto Uzumaki.

Players are always trying to find better gear, whether to improve their character’s abilities or just feel stronger. *Borderlands 4* offers plenty of powerful legendary items, and there are many ways to get them. You can tackle challenging endgame content like Ultimate Vault Hunter mode, repeatedly fight bosses in Moxxi’s Big Encore, or redeem special Shift Codes released by Gearbox for rewards like Golden Keys and other items.

Injuries are bound to happen in Kairos, with so many enemies constantly trying to attack Vault Hunters. To help with that, consider getting the Sparky Shield. It regularly shocks nearby enemies whenever your shield isn’t completely full – which will be often during tough fights. This is especially useful because shocking enemies weakens their shields, making it a bit easier to tackle challenges on your own.

Several promising new games inspired by the ‘Souls’ series are on the horizon, aiming to innovate and potentially surpass the genre’s current leader. These games, set in atmospheric locations like crumbling castles and desolate worlds, will challenge players with demanding combat, require careful observation, and are all built with a shared dedication to dark, immersive storytelling.

The game *Baby Steps* shares similarities with “rage games,” but aims for a calming experience rather than frustration. Players will navigate a misty, mountainous world using a unique physics system designed to mimic the feeling of learning to walk. We spoke with the three developers of *Baby Steps* (Bennett Foddy, Maxi Boch, and Gabe Cuzzillo) about the game’s origins and development process. This interview has been shortened and edited for easier reading.

The launch of the Edge of Fate expansion for *Destiny 2* has been rocky, with many problems appearing quickly. Players haven’t been happy with the Ash & Iron content, citing bugs and frustrating issues that make it hard to progress. Many also feel the game now requires too much effort to gain power. Bungie initially planned to reduce rewards, but after negative feedback from players, they’ve decided to make changes, starting with this new update.

The latest chapter of the *One Piece* manga, chapter 1160, has finally begun the much-anticipated God Valley Incident. But before this major battle between powerful pirates and marines, we’ve seen the Celestial Dragons engaging in horrific acts. They’re desperately trying to kill innocent people as part of a cruel competition called the Native Hunting Competition. This is the most brutal and shocking thing the Celestial Dragons have ever done in the story, and it’s making fans despise them even more. However, it also provides an opportunity to see just how powerful certain characters really are.
