The finale sequence of the third episode of Andor season 2 will stand among the already superlative show’s top moments. It repeats a pattern from the third episode of its first season, “Reckoning,” which cut between two moments in Cassian Andor’s life when he stood on a stranger’s ship, escaping certain Imperial death at the cost of leaving everything he knew behind — but this episode cuts between places, not...
We have a winner: Sony is the first publisher to dare put a fall release date on a major video game in the year 2025, Grand Theft Auto 6 be damned. Ghost of Yōtei, Sucker Punch’s sequel to its 2020 open-world samurai adventure Ghost of Tsushima, will come to PlayStation 5 on Oct. 2. It’s the first tentative toe-dip into the fall release window by a game industry that has...
The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, which preceded The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, is one of the most modded games of all time; despite it’s age, the modding community remains vibrant. While Oblivion’s modding community has been much smaller, it’s still active — and interest has grown since Oblivion Remastered was released Tuesday. The catch, though, is that developer Bethesda Game Studios isn’t “officially” supporting mods for the game. That, of...
Macabre queen Wednesday Addams (as played by Jenna Ortega) finally returns to Netflix in August — then again in September, because Netflix is splitting the second season of Tim Burton’s Wednesday into two parts.

Nintendo’s president Shuntaro Furukawa has apologized in advance for the company’s failure to meet demand for the Switch 2 in Japan after 2.2 million people applied for the My Nintendo Store pre-order lottery alone. In a post on X (translated by VGC), Furukawa said that this “astonishing” number “far exceeded our prior expectations and greatly surpasses the number of Nintendo Switch 2 units we can deliver from the My Nintendo...
UPDATE: Collector’s Edition pricing added below. We are so excited to announce that Ghost of Yōtei comes to PS5 on October 2, 2025! It’s been nearly five years since we shipped Ghost of Tsushima, and in that time we’ve been hard at work making Ghost of Yōtei something special. While the stories are unrelated, it’s important to us to make this a worthy follow-up to Jin’s journey, and we can’t...
The year is off to a great start, at least as far as horror movies are concerned. There are films about family secrets ranging from ridiculously silly to heartbreaking and tragic.

Last year, Wizards of the Coast announced that when the three core books that formed Dungeons & Dragons' updated 2024 ruleset were out, the essence of those rules—the System Reference Document, or SRD—would be made available under a Creative Commons licence. And now, it has.This is a big deal because, while D&D's 5th edition rules SRD was previously available under the terms of the Open Gaming Licence, or OGL, it...
