When the PlayStation 5 (PS5) launched in 2020, it cost $500 with a disc drive or $400 as a digital-only version. Unlike previous consoles which usually became cheaper over time, the PS5’s price has consistently increased. For instance, the digital version saw a $50 price hike in 2023. Just last month, prices in the US went up again to $500 for the digital edition, $550 for the standard version, and $750 for the PS5 Pro. Europe has experienced similar increases, with the Digital Edition reaching €500 in April 2025.

Before chasing Vog, players need to collect 15 Lost Fleas and guide the Flea Caravan to the Grand Gate.

I’ve been playing the *Destiny* franchise since the first game came out in 2014, and I’m pretty sure I’ve sunk close to 5,000 hours into it across all the platforms. I know there are players out there with way more time in, but I play a ton of different games, so that’s a significant amount for me. Honestly, playing all those hours gives me a real edge with *Borderlands 4* – it feels so much like *Destiny* in a lot of ways, and I just *get* things that someone new to Bungie’s shooter might not.

The *Marvel’s Spider-Man* Universes Beyond set is generating excitement and will be released on September 26th, followed by the *Avatar: The Last Airbender* collection on November 21st. While those are the last planned releases for this year, some information about *Magic: The Gathering* in 2026 has already surfaced. Considering these collaborative sets will likely continue, I think one particular partnership would be especially successful.

Since its launch in 2020, the PlayStation 5 has been the most popular console of this generation. It’s now sold over 80 million units, significantly more than its main competitor, the Xbox Series X/S, which has sold a little over 32 million.

Originally planned as a launch title for Xbox Game Pass in 2024, *SOPA* is finally getting ready to release after a delay. It was initially targeted for an August 2024 launch, but development took longer than expected. Hopefully, the wait will be worth it when *SOPA* finally arrives.

When you reach The Pit in Terminus Range, the grapple hook on the ledge won’t lead to The Boss’s office. Instead, go right and talk to Numba One, a guard who’s thirsty from standing watch. You can get him a drink by speaking to Tipsy Olivia at the bar. Grab the drink – it’s an oil can on the left side of the bar – and bring it to Numba One. Throwing the can at him will hydrate him, causing him to move and allowing you to reach The Boss’s office.

Game Rant recently interviewed Cuzzillo, Foddy, and Boch about how they designed the movement and controls for *Baby Steps* on Game Rant Advance. They wanted to create a system that was more complex and nuanced than in other games. The team discussed their past work, what they hoped to achieve, and the many tests they ran. Cuzzillo explained that perfecting the core movement mechanic in *Baby Steps* took a lot of refinement to ensure it felt natural and was both challenging and allowed players to freely explore the game.

As a huge Xbox Game Pass fan, 2025 has been amazing so far! September was especially incredible – we got *Hollow Knight: Silksong* on day one, which was a dream come true, and *Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor* and *Frostpunk 2* are coming this week! It doesn’t stop there, though. I’m really looking forward to *Ninja Gaiden 4* and *The Outer Worlds 2* in October, and *Call of Duty: Black Ops 7* is slated for November. It’s a little bittersweet, though, because four games are leaving the service at the end of the month to make room for all the new stuff.

I think revealing Venom in the trailer for *Marvel’s Spider-Man 2* right after announcing *Marvel’s Wolverine* lessened the impact of the game’s story and its surprises. It heavily hinted that Venom would be the main villain challenging Kraven, which felt predictable given the symbiote’s appearance in the first *Marvel’s Spider-Man* game. Honestly, I wasn’t very impressed with the story in *Marvel’s Spider-Man 2*, and a lot of my issues stem from how Venom was handled.
