The Wolf of Wall Street earned five Oscar nominations when it released in 2013, and it's remained incredibly popular over the years thanks to standout performances from Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill, and Margot Robbie. And if you happened to miss out on the steelbook that launched long ago and subsequently sold out, you'll be glad to know that it's getting a much-anticipated new 4K Blu-ray release with The Wolf of Wall Street Limited Edition Steelbook releasing on December 16. Preorders are live at Amazon and Target and you can lock-in your copy for $35.49-- and considering the previous 4K Blu-ray versions sold out, it's worth doing so early.

This version of The Wolf of Wall Street includes both 4K Blu-ray and digital copies of the film with support for Dolby Vision and Dolby Audio.

Final Fantasy IX (Switch)

$40 | Releases December 9

Preorder at Amazon

Great news if you're looking to complete your collection of physical Final Fantasy releases on Switch--the Final Fantasy VII & Final Fantasy VIII Remastered: Twin Pack and Final Fantasy IX Switch physical editions are finally launching in North America. These originally launched in Japan and Europe a few years ago, but US fans were stuck with digital versions on the eShop. While you could import and play the physical versions from other regions thanks to the Switch's region-free hardware, these new US releases will (hopefully) be easier to find when they launch on December 9. Preorders for both games are now live at Amazon for $40 each. While there are no preorder bonuses announced at this time, it's still worth securing early copies, since physical Final Fantasy Switch releases tend to be very popular.

Final Fantasy VII & Final Fantasy VIII Remastered: Twin Pack (Switch) $40 | Releases December 9

The Final Fantasy VII & Final Fantasy VIII Remastered: Twin Pack includes, as the title implies, the HD ports of the PS1 versions of Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VIII Remastered. Both games appear to be included in full on the cartridge.

Preorder at Amazon Final Fantasy IX (Switch) $40 | Releases December 9

The Final Fantasy IX physical release includes the HD version of the original Final Fantasy IX on the cartridge.

Preorder at Amazon

All three games offer the same core experience as the original PS1 RPGs, but with HD graphics and higher resolution presentation. Final Fantasy VIII Remastered in particular features new character models that are more detailed than the PS1's--though they still resemble the PS1's 3D models' art direction, and use the original animations, so it's not a huge change. All three games also feature optional toggles to turn off random encounters, make your characters invincible, and more. While these are Switch games, you can of course play them on Switch 2 as well.

With these new Final Fantasy VII & Final Fantasy VIII Remastered: Twin Pack and Final Fantasy IX physical releases, it's now possible to grab physical editions of almost every mainline Final Fantasy game--plus some of its best spinoffs--on Switch. The first six entries in the series are all included in the Final Fantasy I-VI Collection Anniversary Edition, and the Switch version is on sale for $69 (was $75). Though if you're looking for the best deal, it's also available on PS4 for just $53. The pixel remaster versions of these games maintain the classic 2D gameplay of the NES and SNES RPGs, but feature new pixel art (and not the ugly redrawn sprites of the mobile re-releases from a few years ago), as well as other tweaks like the ability to play with the original chiptune soundtracks or new orchestrated versions, optional battle speed and difficulty settings, and more.

Ever since Ghostface appeared in Call of Duty years ago, I've been impatiently waiting for my favorite horror icon to arrive in my favorite multiplayer game. I knew it was just a matter of time, and thankfully that time is now. Fortnitemares 2025 adds Ghostface among so many other crossovers, like Scooby-Doo, Terrifier's Art the Clown, indie horror hits REPO and Poppy Playtime, and more, to Fortnite. But not all of these collabs got the same treatment, and even cooler than the upcoming Ghostface skin is the new Scream-inspired weapon.

In Fortnite's latest Halloween event, you can find the new Last Call weapon inspired by Scream's legendary slasher. The weapon is more like a set of features; it's a knife with attached movement abilities, voice lines, and, when equipped, a full Ghostface costume. Unlike the Scooby Snacks or Doja Cat's Thorn Ripper, which are both fun but also reskins of pre-existing items, the Last Call isn't quite like anything the game has included before, and as a huge fan of Scream, I think Epic absolutely nailed the design.

The slasher GOAT arrives in Fortnite.

First, there's how you acquire it. You can't pick up the Last Call knife in chests or find it as floor loot. Instead, you have to visit a phone booth. Stepping into the phone booth briefly, you emerge dressed as Ghostface, and you'll switch out of the all-black costume and iconic white mask whenever you unequip the knife, which taps into Scream's long list of killers claiming the role of Ghostface over the years.

Up until now, every character confirmed to appear in Invincible Vs--the 3v3 tag fighter starring characters from Skybound's Invincible series--has been a souped-up superhero. Today, at New York Comic Con, Skybound and developer Quarter Up changed that, as Global Defense Agency head Cecil Stedman has officially been added to the playable roster.

Designing a human character to fight against superhuman opponents on the level of Omni-Man and Invincible requires a change of approach. GameSpot sat down with Robert Kirkman, creator of Invincible, and multiple members of the dev team at Quarter Up to speak about the process of bringing Cecil and his unique abilities to the game.

"Only" human

As a "normal" human among superheroes, Cecil relies less on superior strength and speed, and more on the vast resources of his government agency to provide extra firepower. This idea was key to Cecil's appearance in Invincible Vs, as it's those resources that make him a very formidable foe.

A 17-year veteran on the Halo development team has left the company, posting an ominous-sounding message on the way out.

Glenn Israel said on LinkedIn that he is "no longer contributing to the Halo universe" after working on the sci-fi series since 2008. Israel got his start on the Halo franchise at Bungie before joining 343 Industries--now known as Halo Studios--as art director.

Israel said in his post that there is "little more I can say for the moment" about the nature of his exit from the Halo development team. He added, "I intend to share this particular story in its entirety when it is absolutely safe to do so next year."

If you're wondering how long it takes to beat the Battlefield 6 campaign, we have you covered with this mission guide. The game comes packed with a full campaign, collectibles to hunt down, and plenty of achievements to earn. Below, we'll break down the mission list and all of the side objectives you might want to tackle during your playthrough of Battlefield 6's story.

How long is Battlefield 6 - Campaign length and missions

Battlefield 6 has a total of nine campaign missions. On average, it should take you around 4-5 hours to complete the campaign on the normal difficulty level. Of course, you can take your time to explore the map, hunt down collectibles, and attempt the game's specific achievement/trophy requirements. A harder difficulty could lead to slower mission progression, naturally.

Battlefield 6 campaign mission list

• Always Faithful
• The Rock
• Operation Gladius
• Night Raid
• No Sleep
• Moving Mountains
• Nile Guard
• Operation Ember Strike
• Always Forward

Side objectives for completionists

Achievement hunters will likely take much more time with the Battlefield 6 campaign. There are 30 dog tags and a T-Rex dinosaur toy collectible to find within the nine missions. At launch, we'll have a full Battlefield 6 collectible guide and also a breakdown of the ten campaign rewards you can unlock for finding all the dog tags.

Fortnite's latest edition of Fortnitemares includes horror icons like Jason, Ghostface, the Scooby Gang, and Doja Cat. The only nonfictional character on that list has already made some waves across social media--or at least the Fortnite X account that was supposedly being run by her.

Doja Cat was scheduled to take over the Fortnite X account on Wednesday before the release of the Fortnitemares announcement, but she says it wasn’t actually her after the account posted a message about "rose toys" that some assume was referencing sex toys. Doja Cat responded directly from her actual account.

"I told them not to, man. That’s not even me," she wrote on X. "I said this yesterday and then said 'don’t post that' :/."

Earlier this year, developer Heart Machine released Hyper Light Breaker in early access after a nearly two-year delay. However, the game's development is winding down due to layoffs at Heart Machine.

As reported by Game Developer, a spokesperson for Heart Machine said the layoffs "will include a conclusion on the project, [and] it reflects broader forces beyond our control, including shifts in funding, corporate consolidation and the uncertain environment many small studios like us are navigating today."

A follow-up statement from Heart Machine indicated that it isn't completely abandoning Hyper Light Breaker, and there will be a more polished version of the game coming in January 2026 as at least one final update.

Warner Bros. and Legendary have announced A Minecraft Movie 2. The sequel is set to hit theaters on July 23, 2027. That's a couple months after the live-action The Legend of Zelda movie comes out.

Assuming the schedules hold, A Minecraft Movie 2 will come to theaters on the same day that The Simpsons Movie 2 arrives in July 2027.

The announcement of the sequel is no surprise at all. The original film, released in April 2025, made more than $950 million worldwide. It's the No. 2 highest-grossing video game movie of all time, and the No. 69 highest-grossing movie of all time for all films ever released.

Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Bowser's Castle Raceway

$50 (was $86.39)

See at Amazon See at Walmart

The newest Mario Kart Hot Wheels track set is on sale for a terrific price at Amazon and Walmart. Bowser's Castle Raceway launched in September for $86.39, but you can get this large Hot Wheels Mario Kart track for only $50 for a limited time. It's one of several Hot Wheels discounts in the Walmart Deals event, and Amazon is matching it. It's the No. 1 bestseller in its category on Amazon, so it may sell out before the promotion ends October 12.

For Mario Kart Hot Wheels collectors, Bowser's Castle Raceway marks the first appearance of Kamek. You'll also have plenty of storage space for your collection, as the castle doubles as a 35-car garage. Notably, this is the first Mario Kart set to use Hot Wheels' new Speed Snap assembly system.

The new patch notes are in for Borderlands 4, and like several other updates, this new round of tweaks to the game is focused on empowering players--specifically, their arsenal of weapons. Gearbox says that it's focusing on smaller gear adjustments, starting with several Legendary-class weapons. These hard-to-find weapons haven't felt as good to use in combat despite having unique perks, so their overall power is getting dialed up substantially.

One prime example here is the Hellwalker, a Jacobs fire-and-forget shotgun that was introduced in Borderlands 3 and is almost a carbon copy of the Super-Shotgun used by the Doom Slayer in Id's Doom games. This will now do 30% extra base damage, so if you have a Jakobs mod equipped and the right skills activated, it should shred through rank-and-file enemies with ease. Queen's Rest, a pistol manufactured by Torgue, will also start firing rounds faster, as this has been increased by 50%, while the chance for its unique perk to spawn a homing sticky projectile has been increased from 30% to 50%.

Other notable changes include damage and fire-rate increases to Ruby's Grasp, the drone deployed from Bully will do 50% more damage, and Convergence base damage has been increased by 25%. If you don't have one of these Legendary-class weapons yet, they can be farmed from bosses found throughout Kairos, or you might want to check Mauricie's Black Market vending machine to see if he has it in stock.

The Essential Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz (Hardcover)

$63 (was $75)

See at Amazon

The first Peanuts comic strip was published in 1950, and almost eight decades later, it remains a staple of pop culture. To celebrate its 75th anniversary, The Essential Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz was released on October 7, offering a deep dive into the history and legacy of both the iconic comic and its creator. Despite just releasing a few days ago, it's already on sale for $63 (was $75) and is part of Amazon's buy two, get one free sale (which features books, Blu-rays, toys, and more).

The Essential Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz (Hardcover) $63 (was $75)

This 336-page hardcover book features over 700 images related to the Peanuts, including comic strips and other creations from Schulz. It comes with additional insight from award-winning author Mark Evanier (he also worked on the animated TV show, Garfield and Friends), a forward from Jean Schulz, and various commentary from other folks close to the Peanuts universe.

As a bonus, the hardcover bundle comes with:

• Iron-on patch
• Full-color comic book
• Slipcase
• 8 prints
• 5 vinyl stickers
• 8 postcards

That's a wealth of content for just $63--and when you consider it's also part of the B2G1 free event at Amazon, it makes the hardcover a truly enticing offer.

If you decide to partake in Amazon's B2G1 free event, consider bundling The Essential Peanuts with The Complete Calvin and Hobbes and The Complete Far Side. The former is a four-volume collection of every Calvin and Hobbes comic from 1985 to 1995, while the latter is a three-volume collection featuring all 4,000+ Far Side comics. Both are well over 1,000 pages, and if you pick up all three, you should have more than enough comics to keep you busy through the end of 2025.

The Essential Peanuts didn't arrive alone when it released on October 7. It launched alongside the Peanuts: 75th Anniversary Ultimate TV Specials Collection on Blu-ray. Available for $73 (was $77), it offers 40 TV specials and a 28-page collectible booklet--making it a nice complement to the hardcover collection.

To celebrate 15 years as a studio, MachineGames has announced an anniversary update for Indiana Jones and The Great Circle that will add New Game Plus to the adventure game tomorrow, October 10. In addition, the free patch will feature an outfit from Raiders of the Lost Ark, voice language select, and other general fixes.

On the game's website, MachineGames notes that New Game Plus and the Cairo outfit were highly requested from the community. New Game Plus unlocks after completing the main story and will let players keep their unlocked Adventure Books. Since Indy should be stronger, MachineGames recommends pushing the difficulty up a notch. Last but not least, there's a new after-credits scene for players who finish Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on New Game Plus.

Meanwhile, the Cairo outfit sees Indy jacketless, and MachineGames is teasing more looks for the archaeologist over the coming months. As for the voice language select, the developer states: "You can mix and match any of the nine available voice languages with any of the 14 text languages."

Longtime Xbox devotees have recently seen several former exclusive games go to PlayStation 5, while Microsoft has raised prices on Game Pass and Xbox consoles in the US. Now, one of Xbox's original team members, Laura Fryer, is calling out her former employer and describing the price increases as a "betrayal" of the trust that gamers placed in them.

"With this latest increase to Game Pass, Xbox threw away one of their last advantages," said Fryer in her latest YouTube video. "They were the best deal in gaming... With these price hikes, it feels like a betrayal, like greed over gaming... I recognize that this Xbox console generation isn't over yet, it's almost certainly going to be remembered first and foremost for Microsoft's greed."

Fryer went on to recap the two hardware price increases this generation, three separate Game Pass price increases, more expensive games, massive layoffs, and multiple studio layoffs.

You might want to make some space in your Batcave, because Lego just revealed several new Lego Batman Batmobiles kits based on the vehicles seen in Batman & Robin, Batman v Superman, and The Batman, along with a new Batman Logo model. The four new sets arrive next year on March 1, 2026, just ahead of the new Lego Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight game. They even come bundled with digital codes to unlock content in the game. All four are available to preorder now at Amazon and the Lego Store.

Batman & Robin Batmobile (272 pieces) $30 | Releases March 1, 2026

Batman & Robin might not be everyone's favorite Dark Knight movie, but it had a heck of a Batmobile that looked like a heavy stylized drag-racer. This Lego kit captures the sleek body and the swooping wings of that vehicle, and for extras, it comes with a Batman minifigure with a fabric cape and a commemorative golden coin to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Lego Batman.

See at Lego Store Batman V Superman Batmobile (220 pieces) $30 | Releases March 1, 2026

The Batmobile seen in Zack Snyder's DC Universe movies was a marvel of engineering when it wasn't being demolished by the Last Son of Krypton or Parademons. This set captures the rugged look of that Batmobile, and it features a front-mounted, non-functioning shooter, opening cockpit, and stickers ton create the headlights. The set includes a Batman minifigure outfitted in his Superman-pummeling armor and a commemorative golden coin.

See at Amazon See at Lego Store The Batman Batmobile (330 pieces) $30 | Releases March 1, 2026

The most recent incarnation of the Batmobile on the big screen roars into life as a 330-piece set. Once fully constructed, this model features a removable roof that gives you easy access to the cockpit, a detailed engine bay, a Batman minifigure, and another golden commemorative coin for your collection.

See at Lego Store Batman Logo (678 pieces) $80 | Releases March 1, 2026

The final bat-reveal is a big one--literally! This massive set is a reconstruction of Batman's iconic symbol, and it can be displayed on its stand or mounted to a wall using the built-in supports. What sets this model apart are the small details, as it features decorations based on well-known items from the DC Universe as greebling. You'll also get the golden anniversary coin with this set, a golden Batman minifigure, a code to unlock the golden batsuit in the Lego Batman game, and a regular Batman minifigure.

See at Amazon See at Lego Store

The kits above are all designed to be quick and affordable sets, but for something really cool, the Lego Batmobile based on Adam West's incarnation of the superhero is a work of art. Currently available for $142.69 (was $150), this is a larger model that brings the Batmobile to life with various nods to the source material. There's the iconic black body and red piping, molded windshields, authentic details, and a minifigure of the Batman from a groovier era of TV.

We'd also recommend grabbing a few more Batmobiles for the collection, just to create an impressive Bat-garage of wonderful toys. Some of our favorites include the sleek blue Batmobile from Batman: The Animated Series, the Tumbler from the Dark Knight Trilogy for its tank-like design, and the Batmobile from Batman Forever that featured a unique look with its exposed chassis and blue lights.

As announced previously, Battlefield 6 is getting a major day-one patch that includes 200+ changes, fixes, and improvements, and now Battlefield Studios has published the full patch notes. You can also read GameSpot's Battlefield 6 review to see our thoughts about the game so far. The Battlefield 6 global release times have also been announced.

Patch 1.0.1.0 includes a "wide range of updates and improvements" based in part on feedback from the Battlefield 6 open beta weekends earlier this year and the Battlefield Labs tests. Some of the major updates for the day-one patch include "refined" movement, which lowers jump height and reduces slide-to-jump momentum. The patch also increases weapon inaccuracy when firing while jumping or sliding and increases penalties for repeatedly jumping.

Battlefield Studios also addressed weapon handling with a rebalance update and "general recoil tuning." What's more, the developer changed the layouts for Rush and Breakthrough modes to offer "better balance" between attackers and defenders. Some of the Battlefield 6 maps, meanwhile, have received lighting adjustments and seen updates for "better traversal."
