Stranger Things' Vecna And 60th Anniversary Marvel Pops Among New Funko Reveals

Samsung and Batteries Plus have announced a new partnership wherein 35 Batteries Plus locations will become Samsung Authorized Service Centers. The two companies have been working together since 2018, though Batteries Plus has mostly acted as an independent service provider that handled out-of-warranty repairs.

Feel like you could handle the beasts of the Upside Down better than the gang could? Why not put that to the test? Kingdom Eighties just dropped on Android. It’s a game about a small town under attack from strange monsters from another dimension whose worst enemy is a bunch of local kids on bikes.

It might be rather a far cry from his previous work on the likes of Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption, and the Call of Duty series, but developer Tony Gowland’s new game Dungeon Golf is a quirky, fun spin on mini-golf with a ton of charm, and it’s getting a big free update to celebrate the Halloween season.

Several of the biggest names in superhero comics are coming together to launch their own "creator-owned and operated media company," named Ghost Machine. Jason Fabok, Gary Frank, Bryan Hitch, Geoff Johns, Lamont Magee, Francis Manapul, Brad Meltzer, Peter J. Tomasi, and Maytal Zchut will all become exclusive Ghost Machine creators once their current obligations to other publishers are through.

A new Dungeons & Dragons actual play is in the works, featuring even more familiar faces from the voices and creatives of the gaming industry. Titled «Natural Six», the campaign posted the Kickstarter trailer—shown above—to their YouTube channel earlier this week (thanks, Dicebreaker). Leading the group as its DM is Harry McEntire, who is the voice of Noah from Xenoblade Chronicles 3. 

Terraria freaks me out sometimes. On the surface, it’s a colorful, serene, innocent-looking game with all the warmth and gentility of a peaceful Minecraft world. Green grass. Blue skies. Just you, the outdoors, and your imagination. But then you dig, and you find yourself fighting gigantic, hideous bosses with names like Wall of Flesh, Brain of Cthulhu, and the Lunatic Cultist. It’s a deceptive, dual-natured world where the pastoral rapidly gives way to the nightmarish. After dozens of hours in Terraria, perhaps it would be nice to play something calmer. Sharing a short insight into his game-making ambitions, Terraria’s creator Andrew ‘Redigit’ Spinks says he might one day like to work on precisely that – a chilled game in the style of Clicker Heroes, Cookie Clicker, and the other idle icons.

India is gearing up for another groundbreaking space mission following Chandrayaan-3 and Aditya L-1 missions. After the successful launch of these two missions, ISRO's confidence in space missions has received a major boosted.

When I hear the phrase “map-altering destruction,” Battlefield, naturally, is the first game that springs to mind. The ‘Levolution’ events from Battlefield 4 especially blew me away – you start the game in a sunny, tropical paradise, and by the end it’s shrouded in dust and you’re scrapping with each other in the rubble of a dozen skyscrapers. Combine that with parkour, stunts, and airborne combat, the kind of free-running, acrobatic ducks and dives you can show off in Mirror’s Edge and Mirror’s Edge Catalyst. Then throw in the large-scale combat of Call of Duty and Tarkov, make the whole thing explode on TikTok, and launch a playable alpha on Steam. This is Combat Champions, a new fast-paced FPS where you kill each other to the delight of a stadium audience.

I love anything fantasy and medieval, and in my opinion, some of the best games out there are fantasy RPGs! Even better if they include some moral dilemmas in them (hint hint). Top Troops brings a unique feel to a classic RPG strategy game. With an all-new world to explore, a new battle to win, and seven different game modes- this game has something for everyone!

Funko has released more than 13,000 Pop! figures so rather than trying to collect them all, which would be almost impossible, you need to pick a lane or two and stick it to. Whether that be focusing on Pops from a particular series like Pokemon or DC, or maybe sticking to a particular type like the special edition flocked figures. If you're thinking of starting a Funko Pop! selection from scratch, you may want to consider the new Retro Reimagined collection.

Insomniac are putting a lot of extra detail in to Spider-Man 2 to make the open world feel more alive, and that includes being able to jump on the rides on Coney Island and take spin. Project manager Jeannette Lee spoke to Golem and was asked about her thoughts open “future of open-world superhero games”.

Things have finally settled down a bit for Destiny 2, only for Bungie to reveal a hard-hitting truth as part of the game’s latest patch notes. As those who are in tune with Destiny‘s most prominent secret-hunting community, r/raidsecrets, will know, Guardians have been chasing after a mysterious third secret chest in the re-issued Crota’s End raid. As per the patch notes for Destiny 2 update 7.2.0.5, though, there never was a third secret chest to begin with.
