High on Life 2 has more creative sci-fi guns, more wacky characters, and “more than five” playable games to find, including the infamous Bible Adventures.
Squanch Games chief creative officer/art director Mikey Spano and chief operating officer/executive producer Matty Studivan told IGN about how they’re raising the stakes for the sequel to the popular comedy shooter during a conversation at gamescom 2025. Although a bigger cast and new story might be the primary draw for fans, the studio says it made sure to tuck in more Easter Eggs to uncover, too.
The original High on Life famously included a few full-length movies for players to watch if they knew where to look, and it sounds like High on Life 2 will take things a step further. Spano tells us that, in addition to “some surprising B+ tier movies,” the sequel introduces fully-emulated, playable video games. When originally asked which titles to include, Spano says one game came up before any others: Bible Adventures.
“Yes, you can play the whole thing,” Spano said of the officially licensed version included in High on Life 2. “And it’s not the only emulated game that’s in there.”
We’ve actually already caught a glimpse of how Bible Adventures shows up in Squanch’s sequel. In a gameplay demo shown at gamescom 2025, it’s revealed that players will, at some point during High on Life 2, encounter Richard Kind’s Senator Muppy Doo. After he shrinks down to invade the player (and their in-game menu), players can find the only legal way to play Bible Adventures in the year 2025.
Spano stops short of telling us exactly how many games can be played or which other titles are included but does promise there are at least “more than five.” If Bible Adventures is the first we’re hearing about, then there’s no telling what else lies in store.
We’ll only have to wait a few more months to find out which movies and games wormed their way into High on Life 2. Squanch confirmed its sequel has a release date of February 13, 2026, for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S, as well as Game Pass, earlier this week.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is set to finally release this week after years of anticipation. The remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 is $52.38 at Fanatical right now, so PC players can save almost $18 off ahead of launch. In our 8/10 review, we wrote, “Between its old-school stealth-action gameplay and engaging spy-thriller story, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater largely succeeds as a faithful, visually impressive remake of the 2004 classic.”
Pre-Order Kirby Air Riders
A November launch date for Kirby Air Riders was revealed this week, and pre-orders have finally opened up at Amazon! A ton of exciting new details were shared, including an overview on modes, 12 different characters, and much more. Secure your pre-order now at Amazon and prepare for launch on November 20!
2TB Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD for $129.99
Amazon has this 2TB Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD listed for $119.99 this weekend, making it an excellent option for upgrading your PS5 or PC storage. Especially for PlayStation 5 owners, 2TB of extra storage is a godsend, as you no longer have to enter the cycle of uninstalling and reinstalling your favorite games to save space.
New Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Edition Up for Pre-Order
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has been one of the most popular games of the year, with physical copies continuing to sell out from time to time at retailers like Amazon. This week, Amazon revealed a new exclusive Mirror Edition, which packs in three different art cards, a Steelbook, and a copy of the game. If you’ve yet to experience Sandfall Interactive’s hugely popular game, this is the perfect time to pick up a copy.
Lies of P for $29.99
Lies of P has continued to sit atop many favorite game lists over the last few years. A sequel is in development, with a major tease left for players at the end of the base game. The recently released Lies of P: Overture prequel gave yet another reason to re-enter this world, and for new players, there’s never been a better time to jump in.
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition for $46.99
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition launched earlier this year, and it’s still one of the biggest RPGs you can jump into on any platform. The remaster introduced numerous quality-of-life updates that were much needed, in addition to a brand-new epilogue chapter. We gave the game a 9/10 in our review, stating, “Xenoblade Chronicles X was already one of the Wii U’s best games, and this Definitive Edition does more than enough to justify another trip to planet Mira.”
The First Berserker: Khazan for $49.99
The First Berserker: Khazan is available on sale this weekend at Amazon for $49.99. That’s a discount of $10, and while small, is still solid if you haven’t yet picked up the game. In our 8/10 review, we wrote, “The First Beserker: Khazan is a brutal but impressive soulslike that makes pushing through its devastating bosses worth the effort.”
With High on Life 2 waiting in the wings, Squanch Games’ Mikey Spano and Matty Studivan told IGN in an interview at gamescom 2025 that they are going to give Danny DeVito another go when they eventually get to making what feels like the inevitable third game in the comedy first-person shooter series.
“I really want Danny DeVito,” chief creative officer Spano said. “We tried to get Danny DeVito for the first game, and at that time we didn’t really have the cachet to sway him. But I’m hoping after this game we can try again and get him in there.
“I have the perfect design for a Danny DeVito gun in my head that I want to see so bad!”
So, why didn’t DeVito work out for High on Life? According to executive producer Matty Studivan, it was felt that DeVito would have been so unlikely to say yes, that it wasn’t even worth the ask.
Studivan said: “I believe the response we got was, ‘We would take this to him but his agent doesn’t even know if he’ll understand what it is, and he’ll probably just say no.’ We’re gonna try really hard on the next one.”
Spano then issued the call: “Danny DeVito, reach out! We’re ready for ya!”
Whether Danny DeVito appears in High on Life 3 or not, Squanch Games has a more pressing matter: High on Life 2. As announced at gamescom, the sequel launches February 13, 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S and Game Pass day-one.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Galactus actor Ralph Ineson plays Sheath, a new character and boss, and is joined on the cast by Betsy Sodaro, J.B. Smoove, and Richard Kind.

Silent Hill f takes us to 1960s Japan, where we follow Hinako Shimizu, a teenager struggling under the pressure of expectations from her friends, family, and society. As IGN reported in our Silent Hill f hands-on preview, its combat has a similar feel to Silent Hill 2 Remake’s close-range combat. You can dodge enemy attacks with the DualSense’s circle button and activate a light and heavy attack with R1 and R2, respectively. Your limited reach and lengthy attack motions give a realistic, weighty feel to combat. Heavy attacks, especially, feel slow and need to be timed well, “contributing to the feeling that Hinako is just a teenager with limited strength.”
On top of that, Silent Hill f’s combat also features timed dodges and counterattacks, with the latter particularly important in combat sequences. Enemies briefly show a sign when a counterattack can be utilized, but we suggested that “unless you have trained your reflex skills by playing games like of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, you will likely have a hard time reacting.” That’s where the Focus mode comes in, which can be triggered by holding L2. It allows counterattacks to last longer, while also charging up a power attack that staggers an enemy.
But in an interview with IGN at gamescom 2025, Silent Hill producer Motoi Okamoto set the record straight. He insisted Silent Hill f is not a soulslike, despite the mechanics at play in its combat, and even said applying that label to the game is “disingenuous.”
“This is one of the things that we see — the term soulslike — being thrown around on the internet quite a bit,” he began. “And I think it’s a label that’s a little bit disingenuous. Modern players will see like, oh there’s a stamina meter, there’s a dodge, and they’re like, ‘Okay, it’s a soulslike.’
“But to be very honest, a lot of these things we actually pulled from classic Silent Hill titles. Look at Silent Hill 4 — there’s a charge meter for your attacks, kind of like our Focus meter. And even for Silent Hill 3 there’s a stamina meter. You see it later on.”
Okamoto went on to say Silent Hill f’s combat mechanics aren’t exclusive to the soulslike genre, expressing a degree of frustration with the online dialogue surrounding the game.
“These things aren’t new and exclusive to soulslike games,” he said. “They’ve been a part of action horror games for a very, very long time. If you have these things you’re labeled a soulslike. And we’d like to reiterate we are an action horror game, but we are not a soulslike.”
Silent Hill f comes out on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S on September 25.

Surprise! Assassin’s Creed Mirage, the slimmer, Baghdad-set adventure launched in 2023, is getting fresh content set in AlUla, an ancient oasis city now found in Saudi Arabia.
A new story chapter with additional missions, plus general gameplay improvements for the whole game, will launch for free later this year.
Ubisoft made the announcement this morning via social media, in a post that’s come rather out of the blue on a Saturday at the end of this year’s busy Gamescom week.
That said, the arrival of more Assassin’s Creed Mirage content has been expected. Earlier this year, Ubisoft declined to comment on a report in French financial newspaper Les Echoes that detailed a deal between Ubisoft and Saudi Arabia’s controversial Public Investment Fund for additional Mirage content.
Today’s confirmation that Mirage will soon get content set in 9th century Saudi Arabia therefore makes sense.
As for the location itself, AlUla seems a natural fit for an Assassin’s Creed game, as an UNESCO World Heritage site with more than 7,000 years of history and towering rock formations that look perfect for a spot of Assassin’s Creed parkour.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage players, we have a surprise coming your way later this year!
📖 New story chapter & missions set in 9th century AlUla 🎮 Gameplay improvements for the base game and the new location 🎁 All for free
Launched in 2023, Assassin’s Creed Mirage arrived as something of a palate cleanser between the epic Viking-set Valhalla and this year’s similarly enormous Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Mirage returned to the Assassin’s Creed franchise’s smaller, stealthier city-set roots for an adventure that felt inspired by the series’ initial game.
Developed by Ubisoft Bordeaux, the game originally began life as an expansion for Valhalla focused on its mysterious Assassin character Basim, someone who ends up playing a pivotal role in the events of that game’s finale. Fans had subsequently hoped to see more from the character, though it’s unclear if this add-on will include any new answers to his ultimate fate.
After Mirage was released, players found an odd post-credits scene hidden in the game’s files that Ubisoft has since acknowledged, though never fully explained. Perhaps this too will finally be addressed in Mirage’s upcoming new content, more details of which will follow in the weeks to come.
There are so many different ways to experience The Witcher these days. My own entry point into this world was playing through the first Witcher game back when it first came out in 2007. But it wasn’t until The Witcher 3 that I really felt the depth of the story. I loved exploring the world, playing Gwent, and getting an up close and personal look at Geralt’s complicated love life.
I got a similar feeling with the first couple of seasons of The Witcher series on Netflix, but now that Henry Cavill has left the show I find myself mostly just looking forward to the next Witcher game in the franchise. Since that game is still years away, however, I’ve been recently looking into The Witcher TTRPG as a potential new way to experience that world. It’s currently only $15 for a six-book bundle at Humble Bundle and it certainly looks intriguing at that price.
What comes with this bundle
This Witcher TTRPG bundle includes a total of six books. You can get the full bundle by spending $15 or you can choose to pay more and support charity. According to the website, this bundle supports Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Here’s all of the digital books included with your purchase:
The Witcher TTRPG Core Rulebook
The Witcher: A Book of Tales
The Witcher: Tome of Chaos
The Witcher: A Witcher’s Journal
The Witcher: Lords & Lands
The Witcher TTRPG – Easy Mode
Is The Witcher TTRPG worth playing?
The Witcher Tabletop RPG was created by R. Talsorian Games in collaboration with CD Projekt Red. The core game is set somewhere between The Witcher 2 and The Witcher 3 on the video game timeline. Since I haven’t had the chance to play the game myself, I did a bit of digging into reviews and Reddit threads to see if it’s worth playing. The most comprehensive review I could find comes from a site called Sprites and Dice. The author goes into a lot of detail about the core rule book and subsequent books available while looking at it through the lens of an experienced D&D player. I recommend checking that out if you need a deeper look at what you’ll get with this bundle.
There’s also a pretty helpful Reddit thread I found where multiple people have given their thoughts about this TTRPG. A common theme throughout that is that those who actually played it enjoyed it overall. One user complimented the character creation involved while pointing out the imbalances in some of the classes. Basically, if you don’t decide to be a Witcher or a Mage you won’t get the chance to engage with the full rulebook.
Disclosure: Humble Bundle is part of IGN Entertainment, the division of Ziff Davis that includes GamesIndustry.biz, IGN, and MapGenie.
Ubisoft is keeping Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 updates coming with the announcement of a new survival extraction experience called Survivors.
The team behind the long-running third-person shooter talked about how it plans to keep the sequel chugging along for at least another year during a gamescom 2025 panel livestream and in a blog post published on its website. It comes with a roadmap for the next few months of content, including a promise to keep players in the loop as development continues.
The Division 2: Survivors is the real headline here, though. Ubisoft calls the new content “an updated take on the survival extraction experience” that is currently “in the early stages” of development. Aiding as creative director for Survivors is Magnus Jansén, who previously served as creative director on the original The Division. During today’s gamescom panel, he confirmed that, after a few years away from the franchise, he’s “back” and “working on something very, very exciting.”
…a hint to, maybe, the biggest new thing we’re doing is right there in the name.
“As some of you had already figured out, the wintery, survival extraction experience is coming to The Division 2,” Jansén said. “I know some of you are, like me, fans of the survival mode that we had in the first Division, and obviously, we think that those of you who like that, will be very, very happy, but it’s more than a remake. We are doing cool, new things.”
He admits there’s little else to reveal, considering The Division 2: Survivors is so early in development. However, Jansén does have one note to leave fans with: “But what I will say, and this is like a teaser, is that a hint to, maybe, the biggest new thing we’re doing is right there in the name.”
“So, I’ll just leave that there, and then I’ll be back next year,” he added.
We’ll have to wait at least a few months to get a first look at The Division 2: Survivors. It’s release date on the roadmap is currently listed as “TBA,” so don’t expect its arrival until later in 2026 at the earliest. However, Ubisoft did provide eager fans with a first look at concept art (above), which may offer more hints about some of the scenarios players can find themselves in when Survivors eventually launches.
“The Division 2: Survivors is as much your baby as it is ours, and we strive for transparency during its development,” executive producer Julian Gerighty said in a statement. “Clear communication and community involvement are a focus as we build the new experience, and we will be closely involving you as we move forward on the development journey.”
The Division Resurgence
Also included in today’s gamescom The Division announcements was an update on Ubisoft’s upcoming free-to-play mobile RPG MMO, The Division Resurgence. Closed test phases for iOS and Android users will begin this September, with Ubisoft pushing interested players to sign up here.
“The Division Resurgence takes players back to the streets of Manhattan, set several months after the conclusion of the Division 1,” an official description for the mobile spinoff says. “With a familiar map updated to reflect the passage of time, the Division Resurgence will bridge the narrative gap between the Division 1 and 2, adding to the existing lore with additional story beats over time.”
To encourage additional feedback from fans, Ubisoft is pushing players to sign up for its Elite Task Force program. The publisher’s message calls it “an opportunity for our most committed players to engage directly with our development team and assist in guiding the future of the Division.”
The Division 2 will launch its next season, The Pact, September 9, 2025. While we wait to learn more about it, Survivors, and Resurgence, you can read our original The Division 2 8.5/10 review from 2019.

Cheap Pokémon TCG ETBs
TCGPlayer is killing Amazon for the most in demand elite trainer boxes right now. Black Bolt is 25% cheaper at $84, White Flare is 17% below Amazon at $80.95 followed by Destined Rivals 17% cheaper at $94.48 and Twilight Masquerade at $86.87, which is a modest 6% cheaper. We’re still a ways off from MSRP, but if you want to get one of these ETBs this is the cheapest option right now.
Most Expensive Pokémon Cards from Japan’s Mega Brave and Mega Symphonia
Japan’s Mega Brave and Mega Symphonia Pokémon TCG sets have quickly gained popularity with collectors and competitive players alike, thanks to their focus on iconic Mega Evolutions, powerful Supporter cards, and premium artwork. High-value chase cards like Mega Gardevoir ex 092/063 and Mega Lucario ex 092/063 are priced at $664 and $444 respectively, while many others remain above the $100 mark.
These sets combine strong gameplay mechanics such as Psychic energy acceleration and hard-hitting Fighting-type attacks with visually stunning Special and Ultra Rare treatments that elevate their appeal. Booster boxes and Premium Trainer Boxes are available on TCGPlayer and include guaranteed rare pulls due to Japanese packaging rules. While the most expensive cards draw attention, more affordable options like Lillie’s Determination 086/063, Mega Kangaskhan ex SAR, and Mega Absol ex SAR offer great value with solid gameplay and collector-friendly art, making these sets a standout release for fans looking for both playability and display-worthy cards.
This Weeks Crashers and Climbers
Stellar Crown’s Illustration Rares like Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Terapagos ex are dropping fast, with nostalgia-driven hype fading as supply grows and competitive players move on. Squirtle is down about 32% since February and Bulbasaur is down 31%, both sliding because their gameplay value is minimal. Earthen Vessel and the Special Illustration Rare Fezandipiti ex are also slipping, while Terapagos ex has been hit hardest, losing over half its value.
On the other hand, Shrouded Fable cards with practical utility are steadily climbing. Hyper Rare Basic Darkness Energy has gained around 17% as Dark-focused decks get more popular, and Dusclops is creeping up thanks to its creative ability. Even the Double Rare Fezandipiti ex is bucking the trend, nearly doubling in value as competitive players embrace it. Smaller gains from Powerglass and Okidogi ex reinforce the idea that functional, playable cards are holding their ground while flashy artwork is losing steam.
LISEN MagSafe Portable Charger
LISEN MagSafe Portable Charger is a slim magnetic power bank that attaches directly to MagSafe-compatible iPhones. At just 0.3 inches thick, it’s easy to slip into a pocket or bag, and the 5000mAh capacity is enough for a solid top-up when you’re out and about.

Baseus Charging Station 67W
Baseus 67W Charging Station is already a solid value at $29.99 (57% off its usual $69.99), but right now Amazon is running a buy-one-get-one offer. Add two to your cart, and the second one is free. Each unit gives you six AC outlets, three USB-C ports, and a USB-A port, with up to 67W fast charging that’s strong enough for laptops.

With Fallout Season 2 officially set to drop this December, Amazon has perfectly timed a deal on Fallout: Season 1 in 4K UHD Blu-ray, now just $29.99 (25% off its usual $39.99 price). That’s the same MSRP as the DVD and standard Blu-ray versions, but with far superior image quality if you’ve got a 4K player built into your Xbox Series X or PS5. Fallout Season 1 debuted on Prime Video in April 2024 and quickly became a breakout hit, leading Amazon to lock in Seasons 2 and 3. While the limited-edition Steelbook is long sold out, this discounted 4K release is a must for fans who want a physical copy, especially given how rare it is for streaming exclusives to make their way onto disc.
Spawn [Limited Edition]

Considering the Collector Boosters alone nearly cover the price, the rest of the contents are essentially a bonus, offering huge value for those chasing Aetherdrift’s rarest cards like the Radiant Lotus Fracture Foil or The Aetherspark First-Place Foil. With stock already more than halfway claimed, this deal won’t last long.

Donkey Kong: Bananza is a triumph, earning a rare IGN 10/10 and prompting our reviewer to call it “a brilliant successor to Super Mario Odyssey and a smashing return for a classic Nintendo character.” It’s high praise for a brand new Donkey Kong game, and one made seemingly without much input at all from original Donkey Kong creator Shigeru Miyamoto. But Miyamoto did still share some feedback on Bananza with the development team, and now we know a bit about what exactly that was.
We’ve already learned from past interviews that Miyamoto couldn’t stop digging around whenever he played the game in development. But now, thanks to a new interview with Nintendo Dream Web (independently translated by IGN), we also know a bit about what he thought about how digging worked. According to game director Kazuya Takahashi, it was Miyamoto who suggested that “B” prompt Donkey Kong to dig downwards, as opposed to being a jump button like in Super Mario Odyssey. As he puts it:
Takahashi: Mr Miyamoto also suggested the button assignments. Since the game was an extension of Mario, we initially had you jump with the B button. But Miyamoto pointed out, “If you’re digging down, wouldn’t B be more intuitive?” Indeed, when I tried it out, the key assignment felt intuitive, so that was based on Mr Miyamoto’s opinion.
Interviewer: I see. The Y button is to the side and the X button is to the top, which is in line with the Switch 2’s button layout, so even people who aren’t familiar with action games will find it easier to play if they keep that in mind.
Takahashi: Of course, there are people who are used to using B to jump with Mario, so for those people, we’ve made it possible to change this in the options.
But that’s not all. Miyamoto also apparently influenced a small but crucial element of the sound design, as related by producer Kenta Motokura and sound director Naoto Kubo:
Motokura: During development, both Mr Miyamoto and Mr Koizumi were constantly destroying the ground and the surrounding area. There were lots of options in the field to play with, so I thought that felt good. He made some adjustments to the sound, right?
Kubo: Yes. Miyamoto-san said something like, “Donkey Kong’s movements look a little light. Maybe his footsteps are a little too light as well.” When it comes to sound, footsteps are something you hear all the time, so we thought that if we made them too loud and heavy, the impact of the destruction sounds might feel weaker, so we had kept them quite subtle. We turned up the volume a little and had Mr Miyamoto listen to it, and we repeated this several times. In the end, I think we were able to strike a good balance that gives a sense of weight without losing the satisfying feeling of destruction.
So it’s also thanks to Miyamoto that Donkey Kong’s footsteps sound juuuuust right in comparison to all the digging and smashing sounds he’s making. Thanks, Mr. Miyamoto!

Double Fine is poised to release a brand new game called Keeper in October, but what comes after that? According to development chief Tim Schafer, he’s working on multiple projects at the Microsoft-owned studio, none of which are sequels.
Keeper is an atmospheric puzzle adventure in which a long-forgotten lighthouse is awakened and goes on a journey. It’s led by Double Fine’s Lee Petty, which means Tim Schafer is hands-off and free to work on other things.
What are those other things? Speaking to IGN at gamescom 2025, Schafer of course wouldn’t divulge Double Fine’s upcoming games, but did say the studio has multiple projects in the works and they’re all original IP.
“I’m working on other stuff,” he confirmed. “The studio is doing multiple projects right now and they’re all original IPs, because we did Psychonauts 2 and that will hold us for sequels for a while.”
So, that rules out Psychonauts 3 or — and this was always an unlikely one — Brütal Legend 2, at least in the short to mid-term. As game developers are fond of saying, never say never, but Schafer’s rather definitive comment gives us an idea of what to expect from Double Fine in the coming years — and that is the unexpected.
Psychonauts 2 eventually came out in 2021. Now, four years later, Double Fine is about to release its next game. Keeper comes out October 17, 2025, on PC and Xbox Series X and S.
