The recent update to Destiny 2 included a surprising amount of inspiration from Star Wars, and the combination was surprisingly well-received. While the update doesn’t directly reference Star Wars characters or places, fans quickly noticed clear influences. The new social hub, Tharsis Outpost, feels like a classic cantina, and several weapons – like Uncivil Discourse, A499, and The Heirloom – are clearly inspired by those used by Han Solo, Din Djarin, and Chewbacca. Players can even earn the Praxic Blade, which is Destiny 2’s version of a lightsaber. Unfortunately, it seems like those hoping for even more new content will have to wait a bit longer.

A key feature of WWE 2K25 is The Island, an online multiplayer mode inspired by Roman Reigns’ ‘Island of Relevancy’ concept and designed as a tribute to the Samoan Dynasty and The Bloodline. Players can create custom avatars, complete solo challenges, and compete against others online in ranked matches. Initially, The Island was only available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, with support for the Nintendo Switch 2 added later. Currently, the Steam version of WWE 2K25 doesn’t include The Island. While new content was released throughout 2025, The Island received criticism for heavily featuring microtransactions used to improve player characters.

When you start the game, your tools won’t be very durable and will break quickly.

Throughout the year, the mobile game Pokémon GO hosts regular Community Day events. These events, typically lasting just one day, significantly increase players’ chances of finding a particular Pokémon. Plus, the featured Pokémon is more likely to appear in its rare, shiny form, which makes these days especially popular with fans. So far in 2026, there’s already been one Community Day and a Community Day Classic, with more planned for the future.

Many fans prefer to keep watching the story of Naruto Uzumaki as the Seventh Hokage rather than follow Boruto’s adventures.

People replay games for lots of reasons. Often, it’s fun to experiment with new items and abilities in a fresh playthrough, which New Game+ allows. Sometimes, players want to revisit the story, especially after a big reveal, to understand a character’s actions with the benefit of hindsight. Ultimately, these games can be even more satisfying the second time around.

Bungie announced their new extraction shooter in 2023, but faced setbacks when concerns arose about copied artwork and initial player feedback wasn’t positive. This led to an indefinite delay for Marathon, making fans worried about whether the game would ever come out. Fortunately, less than a year later, development seems to be back on course, and we now have a confirmed release date, price, and even some related accessories for the PlayStation 5.

Following the sad passing of Akira Toriyama, the future of the Dragon Ball series was unclear. However, things are about to change on January 25th, 2026, with the upcoming Dragon Ball Genkidamatsuri event. Fans are anticipating major announcements regarding new anime projects and video games, and are eager to see what’s next for the franchise, particularly after a difficult period.

Currently, Ultra Ego Vegeta is more powerful than Ultra Instinct Goku, based on pure strength. Vegeta even defeated Goku in their base forms at the end of Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, briefly making him the strongest Saiyan after Gohan. However, Ultra Ego has significant weaknesses, and the characters in Dragon Ball Super are now stronger than ever before.
