Naruto Uzumaki is a hugely popular and influential character, not just within the *Naruto* series, but worldwide. He’s inspired countless fans and played a major role in the series’ success. In fact, the continuation of the story in *Boruto* wouldn’t exist without the foundation Naruto built through his adventures. However, Naruto’s story has now concluded, and it’s time for a new generation to take over.
Several gaming websites that have had a chance to play the game early report that reviews for Battlefield 6 will be published starting at 11 am Eastern Time / 8 am Pacific Time on Thursday, October 9th. Expect to see first impressions and full reviews appear online around that time and over the following weeks.
The next role-playing game from Obsidian, a sequel to 2019’s *The Outer Worlds*, expands on the original’s ideas. The game will continue to explore themes of powerful corporations and meaningful player choices, but this time the story unfolds in a space colony named Arcadia. Players will also meet new companions to join them on their journey. Like the first game, *The Outer Worlds 2* is built using the Unreal Engine – this time, version 5. However, since Unreal Engine 5 has faced some criticism, it’s still uncertain how well the game will run.
The Mage Tower challenge was notoriously difficult, and even though it’s no longer available, the unique rewards it offered – especially the cosmetic appearances – are highly sought after by players. Those who earned these rewards worry that making them easier to obtain would diminish their value. However, many other World of Warcraft players would love another chance to unlock these skins. Recently, through a feature called Legion Remix (likely unintentionally), four Druid skins became available for free simply by logging in, offering a solution to this long-standing desire.
Every October, *Pokemon GO* celebrates Halloween with a special event. These events usually include new quests, Pokemon wearing costumes, and more appearances of Dark and Ghost-type Pokemon. In the past, like last year, Pokemon like Froakie and Rowlet were seen with fun outfits – Froakie with a witch hat and Rowlet with a top hat – and those costumes carried over as they evolved. Niantic plans to continue this tradition later this month with their Halloween 2025 event.
Here are some ways to make *Ghost of Yotei* less enjoyable, especially during your first time playing.

Electronic Arts is hoping to make a strong comeback after the disappointing launch of *Battlefield 2042*, and early signs are positive with the upcoming *Battlefield* game. The game, currently referred to as *Battlefield 6*, will be released on October 10th, and will launch simultaneously worldwide. While this could lead to a lot of players trying to connect at once, developers say they’re working to minimize any potential wait times.
Shadow the Hedgehog first appeared as the villain in *Sonic Adventure 2* in 2001, and later starred in his own game for the PlayStation 2 in 2005. He’s become popular again recently, making an appearance in last year’s *Sonic the Hedgehog 3* movie with Keanu Reeves voicing the character. This year, *Sonic X Shadow Generations* was released, combining a remastered version of *Sonic Generations* with a brand new *Shadow Generations* game.
2025 was an amazing year for anime, with a string of fantastic new shows. The year kicked off strong with popular titles like *Solo Leveling* and The Apothecary Diaries, both of which captivated audiences with their compelling stories.
As fans of the *WWE 2K* series are aware, Brock Lesnar was taken out of *WWE 2K24* as a playable character and removed from the cover of the Forty Years of WrestleMania edition. Although never officially stated, many believe this change happened because Brock Lesnar was named in a lawsuit filed in January 2024 by a former WWE employee, Janel Grant, against WWE and Vince McMahon. McMahon was also largely removed from the game. It’s important to note that Lesnar himself isn’t named as a defendant in the lawsuit. Recently, Lesnar returned to wrestling, defeating John Cena in a tough match at WWE Wrestlepalooza, where he used his signature F5 move multiple times.
