We've Never Seen Anything Like Switch 2's Sales Before
Circana has released its latest monthly sales report, revealing which games and hardware sold the best during October 2025. Battlefield 6 topped the software charts and Nintendo's Switch 2 came out on top for hardware.
According to Circana, the Switch 2 sold 328,000 units in the US in October. It's now pacing ahead of the original Switch by 68% and is also ahead 3% of the PlayStation 4's "previous record velocity" for sales.
The Switch 2 helped lift US hardware sales in October to $351 million, which was up 36% year-over-year. The Switch 2 did so well it offset the year-over-year declines experienced by the original Switch (down 52%), Xbox Series X|S (down 37%), and PlayStation 5 (down 22%).

All Elden Ring games have gotten big Black Friday discounts
All Elden Ring Black Friday deals at AmazonOut of all the souls-like games on the market, Elden Ring is considered to be the gold standard for the genre. From Software's masterpiece has sold tens of millions of copies since it was first released a few years ago, and if you've been looking to try it out, this Black Friday deal will get you the game for just $20 (was $40). Its award-winning expansion Shadow of the Erdtree and the spin-off game Elden Ring Nightreign have also received big discounts.
Elden Ring $20 (was $50)This isn't the first time that Elden Ring has sold for $20, but the game is very rarely discounted to this low price. Similar to From Software's other souls-likes, Elden Ring is an elegantly grim game set in a land of fantasy, wonder, and danger. Game of Thrones author George RR Martin contributed to its lore and world, and everywhere you go, there's always something to discover in The Lands Between. It's only one of a select few games to earn a rare 10/10 score at GameSpot, as it's a game full of substance and style. If you decide to pick it up for PS5 but that version is sold out, the PS4 edition does offer a free PS5 upgrade.

Shadow of the Erdtree isn't just a simple expansion for Elden Ring: It's an essential part of the experience and its grand sweeping narrative. While From Software could have done more of the same and simply called it a day, Shadow of the Erdtree adds an increased amount of new weapons, equipment, skills, and magic that are not found in the original game. Amazon is offering the Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Edition for $50 on both PS5 and Xbox Series X, which gets you both Elden Ring and the expansion together in a single bundle. This normally costs $80 on its own and is rarely discounted this much, so this is quite the savings.
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Edition
- PS5 -- $50
- Xbox Series X -- $40
Released earlier this year, Elden Ring Nightreign retains the gameplay that made the original game and its expansion so popular, but it reimagines the experience as a co-op boss rush game set in the land of Limveld--an alternate version of Elden Ring's Limgrave. Gameplay revolves around players teaming up and choosing a boss to fight, leveling up during the day for a brutal showdown at night. Expeditions generally last around 35-45 minutes, making for breezy but enjoyable gameplay sessions.
You can get either the standard edition or the Amazon-exclusive edition on sale, with Amazon's version offering additional playable characters and bosses, a digital artbook, mini soundtrack, and a poster of the game's key art, all for an extra $10.
"Elden Ring's DNA is ever-present, but Nightreign is also a game of striking subversions: a From Software game that asks you to play it unconventionally, disregarding meticulous exploration, isolation, and measured combat for a cooperative multiplayer game built on speed and aggression. In many ways, it's the antithesis of what people typically come to From Software games for, and yet somehow, someway, this experimental non-sequel is an absolute triumph," Richard Wakeling wrote in GameSpot's Elden Ring: Nightreign review.

PokePark Kanto is a new, permanent Pokemon theme park opening in Japan next February. It is designed to make visitors feel like real Pokemon trainers as they explore a lively town area and a large forest inspired by the anime and video games. While many fans may be excited to catch 'em all, they may be surprised to learn that a major part of the park comes with strict entry rules.
The Pokemon Forest has many safety restrictions that limit who can enter. According to the park's English-language site, visitors must be able to walk up 110 steps without help, as well as wheelchair users and children under five are not allowed in the Forest. People who are pregnant, have heart or blood pressure issues, have been drinking alcohol, or feel unwell on the day of their visit are also restricted from entering.
The park will be situated within Yomiuriland, Tokyo's largest theme park. PokePark Kanto is split into two main areas: the Pokemon Forest and Sedge Town. The Forest is a 500-meter nature trail filled with hills, tunnels, and stairs, where visitors can find statues of Pokemon in their natural habitats. Sedge Town offers shops, rides, and a gym where guests can watch special Pokemon stage shows.

Four notable free Switch 2 updates for big-name Nintendo games--such as Super Mario Odyssey--surprisingly came from outside the company. Instead of an internal developer, Panic Button has confirmed working on the following titles for the new hybrid console: Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, and Arms.
On X, Panic Button revealed its involvement on the free Switch 2 updates. "Nintendo asked us to help demonstrate new capabilities of the Nintendo Switch 2 system, while remaining faithful to the original games," the Austin-based developer stated on social media. The improvements included HDR support for Arms, Super Mario Odyssey, and Bowser's Fury. In addition, GameShare support was added to Super Mario Odyssey and Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury.

EA's new Battlefield game also became the best-selling game in Battlefield franchise history in the US for its first month. 2018's Battlefield 1 was the previous record-holder, and in fact, the first-month sales volume for Battlefield 6 has surpassed the lifetime sales of Battlefield 1.

See at AmazonLike several other Digimon games, Digimon Story: Time Stranger sees players once again journey across the human world and Digital World to collect Digimon and fight in turn-based battles. The game also focuses on the bond between humans and their Digimon, and Time Stranger improved on the traditional turn-based combat systems for this new release. When you're not battling, you can also live your best digi-life by building a home and running a Digi-shop, which in turn opens the door to more questing opportunities.
"Digimon Story: Time Stranger is a strong argument that it's high time to give the digital monsters their own space in the critter-catching genre. Strong voice acting and mature themes digivolve this time-traveling tale into an emotionally-rewarding journey of grief and self-acceptance, and a vast array of branching options keeps team-building and the turn-based combat exciting," Jordan Ramée wrote in GameSpot's Digimon Story: Time Stranger review.

One of the biggest unknowns about Valve's Steam Machine is how much the cute little six-inch cube will cost. Plenty of people have offered their thoughts about where the price may land, and now Linus Sebastian of Linus Tech Tips has shared what he says Valve told him during a recent meeting.
On the WAN Show, Linus said he has no idea what the Steam Machine price will be, but in speaking to Valve, he came away thinking the system won't be priced similarly to a new console.
"When I said, 'I'm disappointed that it isn't going to follow a console pricing model where it's subsidized by the fact that the manufacturer is going to be taking 30% of every game sold on it over the lifespan of this thing, because I feel that would be a more meaningful product,' they kind of asked what I meant by, well, 'What do you mean by console price?' And I said, 'Well, $500,'" he said, as reported by IGN.

Brendan "PlayerUnknown" Greene--the creator of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds--has been working on his new open-world survival game, Prologue: Go Wayback!, for the better part of the last four years. Now, Prologue: Go Wayback! is officially entering early access today and giving players a chance to brave the elements from the comfort of their own homes.
Prologue unfolds from a first-person perspective and drops players into a landscape that changes in every playthrough thanks to procedurally-generated maps. Even the weather can dramatically change, which forces you to make choices about how you're going to survive. Thirst, hunger, and body temperature all need to be maintained long enough for you to reach a weather tower. There are always multiple approaches for that goal, and plenty of ways to die if you make the wrong move.
As part of the launch, PlayerUnknown Productions is introducing a handful of features. Players will be able to customize the weather, the temperature, and the time of day at the beginning of each playthrough, which can make the experience easier or harder.

Battlefield Studios has made a key change to Battlefield 6's Conquest mode which the developer says should help matches run longer, but in a good way.
As of today, November 20, Conquest matches now have an increased number of tickets--up from 1,000 to 1,200. The developer said it arrived at this change after watching feedback generally, along with "win rates, balance, the impact of objective play, and more."
The 1.1.2.0 update made changes to help push players to play the objective, and this has been working out so far, with more come-from-behind victories, among other positive results. However, these changes also led to matches ending "sooner than intended," and to address this, Battlefield Studios is increasing the number of tickets. The developer said this should help with match length and retain the focus on playing the objective.

You'll also find the Logitech G Astro A50 Wireless for $240 (was $300) and the Logitech G Astro A10 Gen 2 Wired Headset for $50 (was $70). Check out a full breakdown of the discounted headsets below, and be sure to browse GameSpot's Black Friday Deals Hub for price cuts on other PC gaming hardware, Blu-rays, books, and more.
Logitech G Astro A50 X Wireless Headset $330 (was $400)
The Logitech G Astro A50 X is the most luxurious of the trio of products on sale for Black Friday. Available in black or white, it supports PS5, Xbox, and PC, and you can switch between them simultaneously at the press of a button. You can also use it with Nintendo Switch while the console is docked. The main attraction, however, is unique HDMI 2.1 Passthrough technology, offering 24-bit/48kHz audio that should impress even the most discerning audiophile.
Aside from its cool HDMI tech, the headset is equipped with everything else you'd expect from a $300+ gadget. This includes Pro-G Graphene audio drivers (40mm), the ability to listen to two devices at once, up to 24 hours of battery life, and a mobile app to help you optimize its performance. There's also an included docking station with LED lights that lets you quickly recharge your headset between play sessions.
See at Amazon (White) See at Amazon (Black) Logitech G Astro A50 Wireless Headset $240 (was $300)
This offers many of the same features as the A50 X, though it skips out on the HDMI Passthrough technology. Beyond that, you can still connect to PS5, Xbox, Switch, and PC, you'll still get Pro-G Graphene audio drivers (40mm), and you'll still get an included base station for charging. The same mobile app also lets you tweak a variety of settings like stream output mixing, mic settings, and other variables, and the overall design of the A50 is essentially the same as the A50 X.
Note that if you're playing on PC, this will support the same 24-bit/48kHz as the A50 X. On console, performance drops to 16-bit/48kHz. In short, if you're playing just on PC, this is the headset to get. If you're playing on console, you'll have to decide if the slight performance bump of the A50 X is worth an extra $90.
See at Amazon Logitech G Astro A10 Gen 2 Wired Headset $50 ($70)
Just need a reliable headset that won't break the bank? Take a peek at the Logitech G Astro A10 Gen 2 now that it's just $50 (was $70). Its stat sheet won't blow you away, but priced at $50, it's a pretty good deal. The wired 3.5mm connection supports PS5, Xbox, Switch, and PC, a flip-to-mute microphone makes it easy to chat with teammates, and its 32mm drivers should be good enough for most casual players.
Logitech built the headset to be durable too, with a flexible headband that can take a beating and oversized earcups that should be comfy during long play sessions. Several different colors and patterns are on sale--making it easy to find something that fits your style.

The Grinch: Christmas Adventures $25 (was $40)The Grinch: Christmas Adventures standard edition includes a boxed copy of the game. The full game data is included on the disc (or the cartridge, in the case of the Nintendo Switch). That said, unlike previous eras of gaming where you could simply pop a new game into your console and start playing right away, newer titles often need to install at least some game data to the console's hard drive, which can take several minutes. So if you're planning to give this to a family member, a pro move would be to open the case and insert the disc in the console so all the data is installed, then wrap the gift once it's complete so they can start playing right away.
See at AmazonThe Grinch: Christmas Adventures is a kid-friendly game that lets players explore Who-Ville as the Grinch, tackling platforming sections through the town's outskirts, snowboarding stunt sequences, jetpack challenges, and more. The Grinch's dog, Max, is also a playable character with his own unique missions, and the game is full of collectibles that let you unlock jigsaw puzzles, art, and Grinch-y accessories. The game first launched back in 2023, but has remained surprisingly popular with players, and it even received a new DLC expansion last month titled The Grinch: Christmas Adventures - Determined to Love Christmas. The expansion is available as a $10 premium download on the PlayStation Store, Xbox Store, and Nintendo eShop.

Our Battlefield 6 review gave it a 7/10, shouting out its impressive gunplay and new features like crouch sprinting and dragging downed enemies that add a new twist to the usual Battlefield formula. Battlefield 6 features both a single-player campaign and online multiplayer, but it's the latter that's earning the most praise. "Battlefield 6 is a return to form, even if it doesn't reach the same highs as the series at its peak," wrote Richard Wakeling. "The campaign is as lackluster as expected, and the multiplayer maps are only ever decent at best, but there's still a chaotic and super-satisfying shooter here that offers multiplayer thrills unlike any other. Even if you're not racking up kills by the dozens, you're still rewarded for contributing in other ways, and you're never too far away from being in the middle of a histrionic Battlefield moment."

See at AmazonDoom: The Dark Ages can be challenging, but since you can scale its difficulty, it's a good starting point for players of all skill levels. Our Doom: The Dark Ages review awarded the game an 8/10, highlighting its brutal combat, sprawling battlefields, and an updated arsenal that includes some of the series' best weapons. "It's surprising how much Doom: The Dark Ages manages to rein in some of the changes Doom Eternal made while also taking the series in a wholly new direction that redefines its rules of engagement," wrote critic Alessandro Barbosa. "The emphasis is on melee combat that harmonizes beautifully with the tried-and-tested pace of Doom's action, making each new attack parried and counter-attack landed feel as satisfying as the first. It's a finely tuned adventure that delivers the power fantasy of ripping and tearing through thousands of demons without losing an underlying complexity that makes each encounter engaging to blast through."

The discount is part of Amazon's Black Friday deals, which include a variety of other gaming peripherals and controllers, as well as discounts on games, movies, and more.
Razer Kitsune All-Button Arcade Controller $226 (was $300)The Razer Kitsune is a leverless, all-button fighting game controller, meaning it replaces a traditional joystick with dedicated direction buttons. Leverless fight sticks have become very popular within the fighting game community thanks to their quicker, more precise inputs. While it might take some time to adjust to the all-button layout (especially if you are already used to a traditional fight stick), once you do, you'll be pulling off combos and special attacks with ease.
Like several other Razer products, the Kitsune has a super-thin profile and Chroma RGB lighting around the base of the chassis. The aluminum faceplate is also removable, allowing for easy tinkering with the controller. It comes fitted with low-profile optical linear mechanical switches. One thing to note here is that the Kitsune is only compatible with PS5 and PC, which is a bit of a shame considering that the PS4 still has a very active community of fighting game fans.
