The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been a roller coaster ride of highs and lows in the post-Avengers: Endgame world. The MCU experienced one of those now-common lows with Captain America: Brave New World in February. Thankfully, the Avengers* were gearing up to remind fans that there are still plenty of uncharted areas in the MCU for Disney to mine. Thunderbolts, also know as The New Avengers, may not have been a massive commercial success, but the entertaining action movie starring a group of foul-mouthed antiheroes was widely praised by critics. It's the highest-rated Marvel movie in nearly four years on Rotten Tomatoes, and soon you can own a collectible 4K Blu-ray edition.

Thunderbolts Limited Edition Steelbook is available to preorder for $45 at Amazon and Walmart. If you don't mind watching the movie in 1080p resolution, Walmart has an exclusive Blu-ray edition with Pop-up artwork. Thunderbolts releases on 4K and standard Blu-ray on July 29.

We've outlined each physical edition below. After checking out the upcoming Blu-ray release, take a look at our roundup of Thunderbolts comic collection deals at the bottom of this story.

This fall, visitors at the Nintendo Museum in Japan are going to get an opportunity to catch a glimpse of history from Nintendo's five decades in the video game industry. Nintendo Museum has announced that an art gallery will be opening on September 3 featuring "a wide range of game artwork, including character illustrations and concept art."

The Art Gallery will open on Wednesday, September 3rd on the 2nd floor of the Nintendo Museum Exhibition Building. Visitors can explore a wide range of game artwork, including character illustrations and concept art.

— ニンテンドーミュージアム (@Museum_Nintendo) June 24, 2025

The announcement was light on details about what kind of artwork will be presented in the gallery, or how far back it will go. Although Nintendo became widely known in the early '80s for arcade hits like Donkey Kong, the company's first foray into gaming came in the early '70s with lightgun games. Since the launch of the Nintendo Entertainment System in North America in 1985, Nintendo has remained a major player in gaming.

The Nintendo Museum already has exhibits that celebrate the history of Nintendo's video games, as well as a selection of minigames that visitors are allowed to play. During GameSpot's two-day visit to the museum in 2024, Dan Ryckert noted that it "is light on text, descriptions, placards, and other traditional elements of a museum." He added that the room with fully-functional giant controllers from the Famicom, SNES, N64, and Wii Remotes was his favorite.

Dungeons & Dragons - Eberron: Forge of the Artificer Rules Expansion

$30 | Releases August 19

Preorder at Amazon

Two new Dungeons & Dragons books are launching soon that will add new rules and storylines to your tabletop RPG sessions. The first is the Dragon Delves Adventure Anthology launching on July 8 for $50, which includes 10 pre-made adventures designed for characters from levels 1-12 for your group to follow along with. The other is Eberron: Forge of the Artificer Rules Expansion, which will be available for $30 starting August 19 and will add revised rules for the Artificer class for the new D&D 2024 Edition, plus information on the Eberron campaign setting, like new character options, monsters, campaign templates, and more. Both upcoming books are available to preorder at Amazon.

Dungeons & Dragons - Dragon Delves Adventure Anthology $50 | Releases July 8

This collection of premade adventures is, naturally, all about the D&D multiverse's many dragons. Each dragon-themed adventure features at least one of D&D's chromatic dragons--such as the red dragon--or metallic dragons like the gold and brass dragons. The adventures are fully illustrated by various artists, each with a unique art style and aesthetic. There's also an art gallery showing off the designs for each of the featured dragons.

The 10 included adventures work as standalone experiences or as part of your ongoing campaigns for characters between levels 1 and 12. The book includes maps for each location and complete information on the encounters, plus step-by-step setup and quick-start instructions for Dungeon Masters so you can start playing with minimal extra preparation.

Preorder at Amazon Dungeons & Dragons - Eberron: Forge of the Artificer Rules Expansion $30 | Releases August 19

The Forge of the Artificer Rules Expansion updates the Artificer class from previous D&D editions with new rules for D&D 2024. Artificers are essentially magical engineers, using magical technology to craft powerful tools and weapons. The new rules also include revised information on four Artificer subclasses and adds a fifth, all-new subclass, Cartographer.

Along with the updated Artificer class, the book also features lore and rules unique to the Eberron world setting, such as:

• Updated character building information like five species, 18 backgrounds, 28 feats, and a selection of new spells and magical items.
• Redesigned rules for Dragonmarks
• 20 monsters
• Three Eberron campaign themes, including fantasy noir, political thriller, and pulp adventure.

Preorder at Amazon

The Dragon Delves Adventure Anthology and Ebberon: Forge of the Artificer Rules Expansion both require the new D&D 2024 Core Rulebook set, which is comprised of the 2024 Edition Player's Handbook, Monster Manual, and Dungeon Master's Guide, all of which are available at Amazon. D&D 2024 is an updated and expanded version of D&D 5th Edition (5E). While you'll need the 2024 Edition Core Rulebooks to play with the upcoming expansions and adventure modules, the new edition is compatible with all previously released 5E books, expansions, and gameplay materials.

The second DLC for WWE 2K25, the Dunk & Destruction Pack, is out today, and it's bringing three NBA superstars into the game: Shaquille O'Neal, the Indiana Pacers' Tyrese Haliburton, and New York Knicks player Jalen Brunson.

O'Neal's connection to wrestling goes back three decades to a handful of guest appearances in WCW, as well as a one-time appearance backstage at TNA. Shaq also participated in the André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 32 and he had a tag-team match against Cody Rhodes during the latter's stint in AEW.

Neither Haliburton nor Brunson have had wrestling matches in WWE, but they did have a confrontation with each other on WWE Smackdown. Haliburton also had a breakout performance in this year's NBA playoffs before he suffered an Achilles rupture in game seven of the NBA Finals.

Actor Jack Black had a role in 2020's Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2, and he's coming back in Pro Skater 3 + 4 to reprise that character and pull double duty by voicing another one as well.

Black will play Officer "Dick and Dick's UK-born twin, Constable Richard. Both characters are villains, of sorts, meant to represent "the man" trying to ruin everyone's fun by enforcing rules.

Richard Ennvee (see what they did there?) was mocked in his childhood for being a "poser," so he vowed to get revenge by becoming "the long arm of the law," according to Activision.

Rematch is quickly becoming one of my favorite games of 2025, despite it still feeling a smidge like it's in early access. The choice to transform the fantasy of playing football (soccer for the American folks!) from the traditionally tactical experience seen in most other football games into more of a high-action, mechanically complex throwdown with an emphasis on pulling off acrobatic plays and heroic saves is very cool. It's led to incredibly rewarding moments and crushing defeats, and riding the wave of those two extremes is a big reason why I enjoy games like Rocket League or Apex Legends. It's also why I love Blue Lock, a manga/anime often cited in comparison to Rematch.

"We did see A LOT of players referencing Blue Lock, more than we expected, actually!" Rematch creative director Pierre Tarno told me via email. "We didn't really know it was so popular--it wasn't a major inspiration for the game, though internally some of us do enjoy both manga and anime!"

For the unfamiliar, Blue Lock is about 300 Japanese high school football players getting locked away in a black site training facility overseen by the mysterious mastermind Jinpachi Ego. Ego tells the group they'll be put through a series of trials, all in hopes of honing one of them into the world's best striker--someone so egotistical that they'd sacrifice Japan's irresponsible emphasis on teamwork to selfishly score goals no matter what and lead the Japan national team to victory. The other 299 failures will never be allowed to play on any Japan team again, ending their football careers in the country.

It's come to light that the Xbox 360--a console originally released in 2005--has just received a new system update. Reddit user trackwalker said they booted up their Xbox 360 to find that the dashboard was updated.

What's new? That's not exactly clear, but replies to trackwalker's post on Reddit mention game thumbnail images no longer appearing stretched out. Others are pointing out that the dashboard now prominently displays ads for the Xbox Series X|S consoles, encouraging people to "experience next-gen performance" by upgrading to a new system.

360 Dashboard updated

The Xbox 360 store officially closed in July 2024, at which point hundreds of games and content for them vanished. TrueAchievements reported that also at this time, a number of tiles related to the store got dumped as well, making the dashboard overall look pretty lackluster.

Like the first game, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach has several Easter eggs waiting to be discovered, and one of the best is tied to your birthday. If you happen to be celebrating another spin around the sun, the game will pick up on this and the next time you decide to take a break, you'll be greeted with a heartwarming scene that features the main cast. Just don't get too excited about the birthday cake, as it's about to suffer a terrible fate in this short celebration. At least Higgs is here to save the day--for once.

This is a fun treat for players because you can say that Norman Reedus, Lea Seydoux, and several other famous Hollywood faces personally wished you a happy birthday. Sure, they're playing characters inside of a video game, but it still technically counts. It shouldn't be too surprising to see an Easter egg like this in Death Stranding 2, and with the game out this week, players will likely be unearthing a few more secrets in the weeks to come.

Death Stranding had its fair share of them, with some of the highlights being references to game director Hideo Kojima's work on the Metal Gear Solid series, nods to classic literature, and plenty of cameos. If you're looking to catch up on the events of the first game before hopping into the sequel, you can check out our digestible read on the timeline of Death Stranding. Death Stranding 2 is available to play in early access for people who bought the deluxe and collector's editions, and the standard version of it will go live starting June 26.

Hasbro's Magic: The Gathering live-action film has taken a major step forward. Noah Gardner and Aidan Fitzgerald--the screenwriting team behind Hasbro's unproduced Power Rangers movie--have been tapped to write the screenplay for Magic: The Gathering.

As reported by Deadline, BlackBerry director Matt Johnson was previously in negotiations to helm Magic: The Gathering, but it's currently unknown if he closed his deal with Legendary and Hasbro. In addition to the abandoned Power Rangers movie, Gardner and Fitzgerald also worked on The Trench, a DC Extended Universe film that was meant to be a spin-off from Aquaman. The duo are also teaming up for Trancers, a Prime Video original series based on the cult-classic sci-fi film of the same name.

Magic: The Gathering has been one of the most popular trading card games for the last three decades. The game's parent company, Wizards of the Coast, also purchased the rights to Dungeons & Dragons before Hasbro bought the publisher in 1999. Hasbro Entertainment and Legendary intend to use the Magic: The Gathering film as the beginning of a shared universe across movies and TV shows.

Lego has revealed the new sets that will be getting an official release in the future, all thanks to fan designers who took part in its Ideas line. The new additions include everyone's favorite FBI agents from The X-Files--and one memorable Simpsons episode featuring a stolen whale subplot--alongside Wallace & Gromit.

These two sets were chosen from the submissions sent to the Lego Ideas "Build Your Nostalgia: '90s Throwback" competition, which challenged designers to bring that wild decade to life with their custom creations. We're ignoring the fact that the first Wallace & Gromit short was televised in 1989, because there were two shorts produced in the '90s. The X-Files is as quintessentially '90s as ripped jeans and grunge music, and both sets will also join a scale-replica of Godzilla at a future date.

Finally, the Lego sets that we didn't know that we wanted.

The X-Files set was designed by WetWired, and it features FBI agents Mulder and Scully in a forest diorama, complete with a UFO spaceship, an alien, and even a replica of Mulder's iconic office. The truth is up there! A few more minifigures are included here, like FBI assistant director Skinner, the Jersey Devil, and Eugene Tooms from those episodes that gave us nightmares.

Palworld's latest major update is live, featuring a crossover with Terraria. Tides of Terraria brings several new features and mechanics to the game. Palworld is also on sale for various platforms, making this a great time for new players to jump in.

Palworld: Tides of Terraria is packed with new content. The game adds a fishing mechanic, and players can now craft fishing rods and bait to catch all-new Pal types. The map continues to expand with three more island types to explore: Tropical, Iceberg, and Shipwreck.

As for the Terraria-specific content, players can tackle the game's Moon Lord as Palworld's latest raid boss. Terraria's Eye of Cthulhu is featured in the promotional art for the update, and this looks to be a Pal-type monster that players can fight and potentially catch. Six new weapons and seven armor pieces from Terraria have been added as well.

Star Wars fans can now explore the franchise's far (far!) away galaxy in detail, as Disney has revealed the official map for the franchise. It includes hundreds of planets--ranging from iconic locations like Coruscant and Naboo to recent additions like Ghorman and Exegol--and the official Star Wars site says that it plans to periodically update the map.

Outside of some very select media, the Star Wars galaxy has been the primary setting for the films, TV series, and spin-offs. Things have been somewhat murky since George Lucas sold the franchise to Disney in 2012, as several of the stories--and by extension, their locations--have been consigned to the non-canonical Star Wars Legends expanded universe, while Disney has forged ahead with establishing its own continuity across the sequel trilogy, the High Republic era, and other transmedia projects. If you're looking for a specific planet on the map, there's a full list of them to explore.

The updated Star Wars map.

Looking over the map--which is based on a 2009 version created for Star Wars: The Essential Atlas--there are several major planets here referencing films like The Phantom Menace, Rogue One, and The Last Jedi. Eagle-eyed cartographers can spot a few planets seen or referenced in video games like Star Wars Outlaws and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. Tanalorr can be found in the Varada sector, and given just how important that planet is to Star Wars lore, it's going to be interesting to see what Respawn Entertainment does with it in the upcoming Star Wars Jedi sequel.

Switch 2 owners who purchased Dbrand's Killswitch have been reporting that their Joy-Con 2s detach from the console relatively easily once their controllers have been wrapped in the protective cover. Several users have claimed that the magnetic connection is weakened by the Killswitch case, but Dbrand is preparing to address this as it says anyone suffering from the "manufacturing tolerance issue" can reach out to the company and get a free set of replacement Joy-Con 2 Grips.

Dbrand originally acknowledged this issue in a Reddit post that wasn't too well-received, as it acknowledged an air gap that's crucial in creating resistance between console and controller was filled when the Killswitch was added. Because the lip on the Killswitch eliminated the buffer that was designed to absorb movement between the console and controller--which is needed to create a fulcrum point when you remove the Joy-Con 2s--several users had begun reporting that their console detached from the controllers far too easily.

"When holding the Switch 2 in a specific way, detachment between the Joy-Con 2s and [the] remainder of the console can occur," Dbrand explained. "Some experience this issue. Some do not. This discrepancy is due to a manufacturing tolerance issue on the retaining lip that keeps the Joy-Con Grip attached to the Joy-Con. Anyone who suffers from the manufacturing tolerance issue can reach out and we'll get them better Joy-Con Grips in July. One nuanced point that got a bit lost in the prior update was that there is an alternative to the retaining lip. It's been tested and is already in-market on a few Switch 2 cases. It's adhesive. The problem with adhesive is that, given enough time or the wrong kind of stress, it will ultimately fail."

The star of 50 Cent: Blood in the Sand looks like he'll be a part of the new Street Fighter movie cast. Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson is teasing that he'll throw on blue boxing shorts and red gloves to portray Balrog.

Nexus Point News initially reported that Jackson was in talks for Street Fighter, which the musician and actor seemingly confirmed on Instagram. Jackson shared a photo from the news story, strongly hinting he's on board for the film. Earlier this week, Callina Liang joined the Street Fighter movie and will play the iconic Chun-Li. Other cast members include Jason Momoa and WWE wrestler Roman Reigns.

A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent)

This obviously isn't the first time Jackson has played in the video game space, as he starred in two games in the 2000s--50 Cent: Bulletproof and then the previously mentioned Blood in the Sand. Meanwhile, Balrog first appeared in Street Fighter 2 before becoming a playable character in Street Fighter 2: Champion Edition. The boxer is affiliated with M. Bison, and in fact, went by that name initially before Capcom changed the character's moniker to Balrog.

Strange Scaffold's I Am Your Beast was one of GameSpot's picks for the best PC-exclusive games of 2024. In the developer's follow-up to El Paso, Elsewhere, PC players stepped into the role of former secret agent Alphonse Harding. Now, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S owners are getting their chance to play I Am Your Beast.

On June 25, I Am Your Beast will officially go live on PSN and Xbox Live. In the game’s story, Harding has left his life of espionage and action behind him, even when his former employers at the Covert Operations Initiative try to entice him back for one final mission. When Harding turns down COI, it responds by sending countless agents to put him in an early grave. As you might expect, Harding takes that personally, and he's the wrong guy to mess with.

The newly released ports include I Am Your Beast's free expansion, which was released last November. Nine new levels were added to the game, as well as an epilogue that gave players even more ridiculously over-the-top action. The epilogue is taken from the accounts of the few COI agents who managed to survive Harding's wrath, and in their retelling he has superhuman abilities that break the laws of reason and physics.

The CG animation and motion capture company Nintendo Pictures, formerly known as Dynamo Pictures, has been revealed to have worked on Sony's Death Stranding 2: On the Beach.

VGC spotted the company's name in the Death Stranding 2 credits. While it might seem surprising to see a Nintendo-owned company work on a PlayStation game, it's not totally unexpected. Prior to Nintendo's acquisition of Dynamo in 2022 and re-branding to Nintendo Pictures, the company worked on the original Death Stranding.

Since 2022, Nintendo Pictures' work on game projects has focused on Nintendo games, including Super Mario Bros. Wonder and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. But it's possible the work Nintendo Pictures did on Death Stranding 2 was done prior to Nintendo's buyout, or that a previous contract was in place to allow the company to work on Death Stranding 2 even as a company owned by Nintendo.
