Even though they’re older, many past *One Piece* games are still fun to play in 2025. From classic RPGs to expansive open-world experiences, these games should satisfy any *One Piece* fan.
Hyperliquid’s $18.9 billion market cap dwarfed ASTER’s $1.6 billion. Yet, ASTER’s hidden orders and momentum hinted it could challenge HYPE’s dominance later. A David vs. Goliath saga? 🦌
Battlefield 1 was a refreshing departure for the series, taking players back to World War 1. It delivered a thrilling single-player story and the classic Battlefield multiplayer action, all with impressive graphics that still look great today. While PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members have been able to play Battlefield 1 for a while, it will soon be leaving the service.
I was so excited to finally see *LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight* at Gamescom’s Opening Night Live! Not only did they show off a trailer, but Jonathan Smith from TT Games came on stage and said this game is going to be *the* ultimate Batman story. Apparently, it’s going to take us through Bruce Wayne’s whole life, from his tough childhood all the way through over eighty years of Batman history pulled from comics, movies, TV shows, and even other games. It sounds amazing!
Anime’s popularity is booming, moving from a specialized interest to a mainstream phenomenon. With so many new and amazing shows appearing, competition is fierce. Throughout the year, Crunchyroll has consistently offered an exceptional selection of anime. The series *Solo Leveling*, released in January 2025, kicked off the year with a bang, and it’s been followed by many other fantastic titles.
A standout feature of *Borderlands 4* is how well Gearbox balances humor and seriousness throughout the game, and I completely agree. There are plenty of genuinely funny moments, like the Vault Hunters using silly voices during combat or a side quest that references a joke from *The Pre-Sequel* after ten years. But when the story turns dark – whether it’s the unsettling experiments of Vile Lictor in the main quest, or the disturbing cases in side quests about a dangerous serial killer – the game maintains that serious tone perfectly. You won’t find any jokes that feel out of place.
Switch 2 players enjoyed several new games in September, including *Star Wars Outlaws*, *Cronos: The New Dawn*, and the highly anticipated *Hollow Knight: Silksong*. *Silksong* has quickly become one of the best-rated games of the year, making September a fantastic month for the Switch 2. However, October looks to be even more packed with releases.
I’m so excited! Devsisters started hinting at a new update for *Cookie Run: Kingdom* a little while ago, and it’s finally coming! We’re getting a new cookie named Silent Salt Cookie, and a bunch of other cool stuff. They’re calling the update “Catacombs of Silence,” and it’s set to launch on September 24th. I can’t wait!
These games represent the end of a significant period for their series. They often conclude the stories of beloved characters and, more importantly, signal a change in direction for the developers or the franchise itself.
