For over a decade, Matthew Mercer has been the Dungeon Master for Critical Role. However, during the show’s fourth campaign, Brennan Lee Mulligan from Dimension 20 took on that role. Mercer doesn’t plan to leave Critical Role anytime soon, but it’s possible he could in the future. While it’s hard to imagine the show without him, Critical Role could continue successfully – and even flourish – with a different Dungeon Master.

The truth behind this terrible event was hidden for a long time, but now we know who was involved and what they were planning. It began with the World Government’s unfair treatment of a nation, but quickly turned into a chaotic battle between the most powerful pirates and Marines. This conflict is where we first learn about the beginnings of Bartholomew Kuma, Monkey D. Dragon, and Blackbeard, and it also marks the end of Rocks D. Xebec’s reign.

Dunk avoids immediate harm when his companion, Egg, reveals a surprising truth: Egg is actually Prince Aegon Targaryen. He demands Dunk’s release, and while successful, Dunk is then imprisoned and forced to defend himself in a Trial of Seven. This trial, a rare and exceptionally brutal form of justice in the world of Game of Thrones, is even more dangerous than a standard Trial by Combat.

Amiibo figures first appeared with the Wii U, especially with the game Super Smash Bros. on that console. Players could use them within games to unlock items or just collect them. While some Amiibo figures have become quite valuable—the rarest ones have sold for over $1,000—they remain popular with Nintendo fans. Now, Resident Evil Requiem is getting its own line of Amiibo figures.

Planet of Lana 2, the second game from Swedish studio Wishfully, is a beautiful side-scrolling puzzle adventure. Players will guide Lana and her companion, Mui, through a unique world that combines nature and futuristic technology. Announced in June 2025, the game will be available on Xbox Game Pass from day one, just like Wishfully’s first game. Currently, the developers are aiming for a 2026 release.

Players on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 will be able to experience Digimon Story: Time Stranger almost a year after its original release on PC and other consoles. Praised as the highest-rated Digimon game ever made, Time Stranger is a time-traveling adventure where you’re sent eight years into the past to uncover a mysterious disaster. Throughout the game, you’ll battle and befriend many popular Digimon, including classics like Agumon and Gabumon. Additional content is available after launch through downloadable content, either purchased separately or as part of a season pass.

Guerrilla Games first announced they were developing a multiplayer Horizon game way back in December 2022. They described it as having a distinct visual style and a new group of characters. While some details leaked online over the past couple of years, the studio hadn’t revealed official information about how the game would play or its story – until now.

Masashi Kishimoto created Naruto, a manga often considered one of the greatest series ever published by Shonen Jump. While it’s impossible to say definitively if it is the best, Kishimoto undeniably crafted a strong contender for that title.

Honestly, when Embark announced ARC Raiders was coming out so close to Battlefield 6 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, everyone thought it was going to flop. Those are huge games with massive followings! But wow, were we all wrong. ARC Raiders has absolutely blown up! It’s sold over 12 million copies, won Best Multiplayer Game at the 2025 Game Awards, and the servers are still packed on both consoles and PC. A big part of that success is definitely thanks to all the streamers and YouTubers who started playing it before launch – they really helped get the word out!

Players received Ardelia shortly after the release of Arknights: Endfield, along with her unique weapon, making her a strong support character. While she’s excellent, she doesn’t quite reach the top tier. Increasing her Potential once boosts her Physical and Arts Vulnerability by 8%, which is beneficial, but not enough to make her a better pick than a fully upgraded 6-star character in Arknights: Endfield.
