Released on October 10th, Battlefield 6 is the top-selling game in the US so far in 2025. Its main competitor, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, isn’t selling as well as the previous Call of Duty game, so Battlefield 6, created by DICE, has a good chance of staying the best-selling game for the rest of the year.

I’m drawn to games with compelling stories and characters, and Dispatch really delivered on that front. As Robert Robertson, I felt a strong responsibility to the people I was leading. Instead of seeing their initial hesitation as defiance, I understood it as a natural reaction to past disappointments. The game encouraged me to use everything I’ve learned about building trust and creating a safe environment – things like being vulnerable and acknowledging their pain. The characters in AdHoc Studios’ first game are very open about their struggles, and I felt like it was my job to support them in the way they needed.

For years, Gearbox has given players in-game gifts through SHiFT codes. You can use these codes to get cosmetic items or Golden Keys, which you then use on Golden Chests to find powerful loot.

And Elbaf is starting to reveal those secrets. Even before the flashback to Loki began, it seemed pretty obvious that Luffy was going to need to significantly improve his Haki.

It’s obvious why this is exciting: the team behind Turbo Overkill is turning the popular mod into a complete game. They’ve even brought in Akira Yamaoka, the famous composer from Silent Hill, to create the soundtrack. With a great base from the original mod and Yamaoka’s involvement, this game is shaping up to be something special, don’t you think?

The ROG Xbox Ally and Ally X are handheld PCs designed for Xbox gaming, priced at $599.99 and $999.99. While they’re expensive, many reviewers and initial buyers have reacted positively. However, the launch hasn’t been without some legitimate concerns raised by users.

In late September 2025, Electronic Arts (EA) announced it would be taken private in a $55 billion deal. A group of investors, including the Public Investment Fund (PIF), Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners, will be acquiring the company. The PIF, led by Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, has been investing in other major gaming companies like Nintendo, Activision Blizzard, and Take-Two Interactive as part of Saudi Arabia’s plan to diversify its economy away from oil. After the acquisition, EA plans to keep Andrew Wilson as CEO and maintain its headquarters in Redwood City, California.
