Dragon Ball: Daima - Collector's Edition
Preorder at AmazonDragon Ball: Daima - Standard Edition
Preorder at AmazonThe latest chapter of the Dragon Ball saga, Dragon Ball: Daima, wrapped up earlier this year, and it's finally coming to Blu-ray on March 3, 2026, just in time for the 40th anniversary of Dragon Ball. Like other high-profile anime series, you'll have the option to choose from two editions: a standard Blu-ray release for $70 or a Collector's Edition for $90 that comes with extra goodies. Preorders for both versions are available now at Amazon.
Dragon Ball: Daima - Collector's Edition $95 | Releases March 3, 2026The limited-edition version of Dragon Ball Daima includes all 20 episodes across four Blu-ray discs. While the on-disc extras include only clean versions of the opening and closing credit sequences, it also includes seven foil character art cards, a sticker featuring Goku, Vegeta, and Piccolo, and a silver foil rigid box with exclusive art by Daima's character designer, Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru.
The illustration features Goku, the Supreme Kai, Glorio, and Panzy in the Demon Realm, while the rear shows off Kami's Lookout on Earth. Each disc also shows off character artwork of Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and Bulma.

- 7 x silver foil art cards
- Goku
- Vegeta
- Piccolo
- Bulma
- Glorio
- Supreme Kai
- Panzy
- Goku x Vegeta x Piccolo sticker
- Textless opening and ending songs
The Standard Edition of Dragon Ball Daima keeps things simple by packaging all four Blu-ray discs in a standard case. It comes with the same cleaned-up opening and closing credit sequences, but no physical extras are included.
Preorder at AmazonSet between the Majin Buu and God of Destruction arcs, Dragon Ball: Daima follows Goku on his journey to the Demon Realm. After Goku and his allies are transformed back into their childhood forms by the new Supreme Demon King Gomah, the Saiyan travels to the mysterious dimension to be restored to his adult self. With his power reduced, Goku gets his old Power Pole out of storage to gain a fighting edge in the battles that lie ahead of him.
Dragon Ball: Daima was well received when it launched, thanks to its back-to-basics approach, fluid animation, and answers to longstanding plot threads, making for a thrilling show. The 20-episode run also told a complete story, wrapping everything up nicely by the final episode. This was the final Dragon Ball project that its creator, Akira Toriyama, worked on before his death last year.

Following its decision to sue Tencent for creating a "slavish clone" of its Horizon games, Light of Motiram, Sony has concluded its legal battle with the company. The game is no longer listed on Steam or the Epic Games Store, and the court case has been dismissed.
That's according to new court documents filed earlier this week, and Tencent added that it has reached a "confidential settlement" with Sony Interactive Entertainment. "SIE and Tencent are pleased to have reached a confidential resolution and will have no further public comment on this matter," head of communications for Tencent Americas, Sean Durkin, said to The Verge.
Announced last year, Light of Motiram was quickly compared to Sony's Horizon series as it featured a very similar art direction and tone to the post-apocalyptic sci-fi series developed by Guerrilla Games. Both games featured vibrant environments and animal-like robots, and Sony was quick to file a lawsuit. Sony and Tencent eventually began discussions to resolve the dispute, with Sony demanding that Tencent pause all public promotion or testing for Light of Motiram.

The Forge is rapidly becoming one of the most popular Roblox games in no small part due to its brilliant tutorial quest system and gameplay. The Forge is a fascinating mix of different types of games from gacha titles to open-world RPG games to even crafting simulators.
And that is all before bringing up the fact that The Forge offers quests that will task you with engaging in its fast-paced action combat system against hordes of zombies. There is something for everyone in The Forge Roblox, so if you want to check it out, it all starts with the quests you get in it.

There is so much for players to do in Roblox’s The Forge, and one of the most important gameplay features is collecting all of the different ore types. While a major goal of the game is to use the titular forge to craft weapons for combat and money, you need ore to do that.
Players can get all of the different types of ore in The Forge using your various pickaxes, and some of The Forge codes that are kicking around may be able to help with that. That said, with dozens of ores available in the highly popular Roblox experience, it can be quite confusing where to find all of them. Here is what you need to know about where to find all the ore in The Forge. We've also got a handy The Forge tier list, so you know which ore is best.
Table of Contents [hide]Where to Find All Ore in The Forge - Stonewake’s CrossThe general idea is you need a pickaxe equipped to be able to mash at the rocks in the various caves and biomes in The Forge. Destroying these different types of rocks will give you the chance to obtain various ores and stones. There are a few additional gemstones and ores that can be found by defeating certain enemies as well.

After more than eight years in beta, extraction shooter Escape from Tarkov finally saw its 1.0 release on November 15. Now, developer Battlestate Games has revealed that the game has sold over 1 million copies in the month following release.
Unlike some early access titles, participating in Escape from Tarkov's beta required a purchase of one of the game's various pre-order editions, so the post-release sales will mostly represent newcomers to the game.
Battlestate Games controversially required that players re-purchase the game if they wanted to play it on Steam, even if they already purchased it directly from Battlestate. Escape from Tarkov also saw some controversy around its sales strategy when the studio revealed a $250 pre-order edition that unlocked access to an exclusive PVE mode, and other features that players called out as pay-to-win.

Crystal Dynamics announced Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis last week at The Game Awards, calling it a reimagining of the original 1996 Tomb Raider. While the studio wants to stay faithful to the original, it has also said it plans to tone down the brutal difficulty of the nearly 30-year-old PlayStation 1 game.
Speaking in a press conference, as reported by GamesRadar, Crystal Dynamics developer Will Kerslake was asked about adapting the original PS1 game specifically when it comes to difficulty. Like many games of its era, the 1996 game was known to have its punishingly difficult sections, including insta-kill death traps that were often near-impossible to avoid without the benefit of hindsight.
"Part of reimagining a game right is adjusting that game evolving for modern player tastes," Kerslake said, and though he doesn't explicitly mention difficulty it seems safe to say that Legacy of Atlantis will have far fewer insta-kills. That doesn't mean the game will be a walk in the park, however.

Continue Reading at GameSpotHorses Was Successful Despite Steam And Epic Store Bans, But It May Not Be Enough
Developer Santa Ragione is reporting that its controversial indie horror game Horses sold 18,000 copies in two weeks. That was apparently enough to save the studio from financial ruin, but perhaps not enough to pay for production a second game.
According to a statement released by the developers, Horses generated $65,000 in net revenue, which allowed Santa Ragione to repay its loans and pay the royalties it owed to Andrea Lucco Borlera, the author and creator of Horses. However, the income won't allow the team to immediately begin working on another game.
"This result is not enough to begin production on a new game," reads the statement. "The money primarily covers obligations created by a prolonged end of development. If sales remain steady, we may be able to fund a new prototype in the future, but the team has had to, and will continue to, take other jobs and projects in the meantime. Reuniting everyone will not be easy, even if it is something we would love."

If you've been looking for more of a challenge from Dying Light: The Beast, then you're about to get it. Developer Techland has dropped Update 1.5 for Dying Light: The Beast, and it's giving players the chance to test their skills in the Nightmare Experience.
To turn up the heat on players, human and infected enemies are now smarter, more aggressive, significantly stronger, and more reactive to the players' actions. Volatiles may now even appear during the day in some of the Dark Zones, and players have far fewer resources to deal with them all.
If that wasn't enough, there's a new super enemy, the Alpha Volatile. Techland calls it "the most intelligent Volatile in the history of Dying Light." It's even smarter than the traditional Volatiles and its heightened senses can track the player across the entire map unless they reach a safe zone. The Alpha Volatiles can be killed, but good luck trying to pull that off. At night, the player is the prey for this creature. Players can also get new finishing maneuvers, including one-handed blunt weapons and one-handed slashing weapons.

Available for $61.74 (was $80), it lets you build a functional replica of the fun coin pushing games found at the arcade. This is the first real discount we've seen for the product, and it looks like a neat project to work on over the holidays.
Sosuy Motorized Coin Pusher Arcade Game Building Set (2,093 pieces) $61.74 (was $80)
While kids will have fun playing with the Coin Pusher Arcade Game once the build is complete, they'll probably need an adult to help snap together its 2,093 pieces. Not only are there a lot of pieces, but the kit features a bunch of moving parts that likely require a skilled hand to get working properly. For example, the finished game features a movable coin slot, a rotatable switch, and an electric motor drive.
In other words, parents can have fun constructing the complex machine alongside their kids, making it a cool winter activity for the whole family. Once the building is done, the machine comes with everything you need to start playing like you're at the arcade, including dozens of durable plastic coins.

The completed machine stands nearly 17 inches tall and 11 inches wide, making it a pretty robust project. It looks quite premium, too, with a retro yellow-and-red design and a little "Coin" marquee at the top by the coin slot.
While the brand, Sosuy, doesn't have the name recognition of Lego, it's responsible for some unique building kits. Beyond this game, it sells a Bumper Cars Building Set featuring movable vehicles. It's also on sale ahead of the holidays, now just $48.44 (was $60) at Amazon. And though it's not discounted, the Water Slide Building Set offers a colorful design, a slidable track, a functioning chain to move its passengers, and spans nearly two feet when completed.

This 4K Blu-ray bundle launched for $100 last year, but it's now discounted to its lowest price yet at $49.49 on Amazon. It also comes with digital copies of all five movies. This is an awesome deal on one of the most acclaimed action film series, but the price cut ends until 11:59 PM PT, so you only have a few more hours to take advantage of the deal.
Mad Max 5-Film Collection (4K Blu-ray) $49.49 (was $80)Set in a dystopian future where society has broken down in the wake of resource and water wars, the box set includes Mad Max, Mad Max: The Road Warrior, Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome, Mad Max: Fury Road, and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. The slipcase also pays tribute to the film series, featuring artwork showcasing various images of the bandits and the vehicles that hunted down Max and Furiosa throughout each movie.
This collection includes a curated selection of special features pulled from previous Blu-ray releases. You can sit down for several behind-the-scenes documentaries, deleted scenes, and featurettes that explore the chaotic world of the film series. What makes this edition special is that it is the only 4K Blu-ray box set to include the physical Black & Chrome editions of Fury Road and Furiosa. Both movies look stunning in black and white, as each film was re-graded to create striking images bereft of color.
The only downside to this collection is that there are no special features included for Beyond Thunderdome. Mad Max fans will be used to this, since no bonus materials were included on the original DVD or on standard Blu-ray copies of the film.

For three decades, the Tekken series has brought players together as they control of some of the best fighters in the world. Now, a 92-year-old Japanese woman named Hisako Sakai has carved out her own legend in the King of the Iron Ring battles by winning a Tekken 8 tournament.
As reported by Automaton, the tournament of senior citizen Tekken 8 players was put on by the Japanese eSports association Care. The mission statement of that organization is to "create an environment in which the elderly can casually participate in eSports." Care has been running tournaments since 2019 while treating them like a major event with livestreaming and official commentators. A video from the event can be seen below.
Sakai made it all the way to the finals while playing as Claudio, when she went up against 74-year-old player Goro Sugiyama, who used Lili as his character. The match between Sakai and Sugiyama can be found two hours and 25 minutes into the video above. Despite the advantage of Sugiyama's relative youth, Sakai appears to have a superior button-mashing technique and enough mastery of the game to execute an effective path to victory.

Kinect's Revenge: Nex Playground Outsells Xbox Hardware In The US
The conventional wisdom is that Kinect was an albatross on Xbox One, making the system more expensive at launch and taking away resource power. But now, over a decade later, the Kinect-like Nex Playground has outsold Xbox hardware for November in the US, according to Circana.
Nex Playground came in third for hardware units sold last month, outpacing Xbox Series X|S. The only saving grace is that Xbox raked in more dollar sales, as Nex Playground retails for $250 but has been on sale for $200 over the holiday season. Overall, video game hardware sales were pretty bleak, reaching a low not seen since November 1995.
Top 10 Best-Selling Video Games Of All TimeSee MoreThis might not be a total shock for those paying attention. Nex Playground actually outsold every PS5 and Xbox console bundle for a week last month in the US. The cube-shaped console features a camera to track body movements, similar to Kinect. Five games are pre-installed, with the option to purchase a subscription Play Pass for a larger library of games. It's $49 for three months or $89 for a year.

A leading industry observer has predicted that EA's Battlefield 6 is "extremely likely" to outsell Activision's Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 in the US to finish as the year's No. 1 best-selling game.
Prior to the release of Battlefield 6 in October and Black Ops 7 in November, industry experts predicted that Black Ops 7 would come out on top. But new data has arrived pointing to Black Ops 7's sales struggles, and now Mat Piscatella of Circana has told IGN that EA's game will likely be the best-seller.
It would be just the second time since 2018 that a Call of Duty game would be outsold in the US. The last time it happened was 2023, when Hogwarts Legacy beat Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Before that, Red Dead Redemption II came out on top in 2018, with Black Ops 4 at No. 2.

The battle for Warner Bros. may be down to Netflix and Paramount, but the studio has a clear favorite. Earlier this month, Netflix bid $82.7 billion dollars for Warner Bros., jilting Paramount in the process. Paramount responded with a hostile takeover bid of $108.4 billion. Now, Warner Bros. is urging its shareholders to reject Paramount's "illusory" offer.
"Following a careful evaluation of Paramount's recently launched tender offer, the Board concluded that the offer's value is inadequate, with significant risks and costs imposed on our shareholders," reads a letter to shareholders from Samuel A. Di Piazza, Jr., the chair of Warner Bros. Discovery's board of directors.
Although Paramount's offer is higher, Warner Bros.' contends that Paramount's owners, the Ellison family, didn't offer a "full backstop" commitment to provide the money to cover its offer and that it can walk away from the transaction without paying any penalty. By comparison, Netflix and Warner Bros. have a $5 billion breakup fee if their deal fails to close or meet regulatory approval. Warner Bros. also contends that the proposed Paramount deal will not be approved by regulators. Regardless, Netflix isn't guaranteed to be approved either.
