If you're a big fan of Frank Herbert's Dune and/or movies made by legendary director David Lynch, check out Amazon's deal on the 4K UHD restoration of the late filmmaker's highly ambitious and divisive 1984 adaptation. Arrow Video's stellar 4K Blu-ray edition of David Lynch's Dune is up for grabs for only $21.80 (was $50). Dune is one of many 4K Blu-rays in Amazon's 50% off Arrow Video movies promotion; it's also not the only Dune adaptation on 4K Blu-ray for super cheap right now.

Save over 50% on Dune 4K Blu-rays:

• David Lynch's Dune -- $21.80 ($50)
• Dune: Prophecy Season 1 -- $17 ($40) with coupon
• Dune: Part One -- $14.49 ($30)
• Dune: Part Two -- $15 ($30)

The ultra-violent and often disorienting film was exceedingly unpopular with critics and fans, but it has garnered a cult following over the years. It's a fascinating adaptation that's worth revisiting, and Arrow Video's 4K Blu-ray edition is the best way to watch it today. If you're at all interested in Dune or David Lynch or the filmmaking process, I'd highly recommend pairing the 4K Blu-ray with the massive behind-the-scenes book titled A Masterpiece in Disarray: David Lynch's Dune, An Oral History. The 560-page, limited-edition book is thoroughly entertaining--and it doesn't hurt that it doubles as a stunning display piece.

Avowed, Obsidian's 2025 RPG originally released on Xbox Series X/S and PC, is coming to PlayStation 5. The new version of Avowed, announced during the New Game+ Showcase, will be available on Sony's system on February 17, 2026--just a day short of the one-year anniversary of the game's original release. Microsoft remains the game's publisher, having purchased Obsidian in 2018.

The game, a first-person action RPG set in the world of Pillars of Eternity, tasks players with investigating a mysterious plague, fighting their way through a sprawling world with a mix of weapons and magic.

Alongside the PS5 version, Obsidian will also release an anniversary update for the game for all systems. This update will add a "New Game Plus" mode, which lets you carry over all of your equipable gear to a new character, reset to level 1, and fight modified enemies. It also adds a photo mode, three new playable races, the ability to change your appearance from the overworld, and a new weapon type. The PS5 version will also contain all post-release content and updates that the game has received thus far.

The middle of Overwatch 2 Season 20 has arrived, and the midcycle is bringing the chaos with new modes, new loot, and new in-game collectibles. One of the most notable new additions is Showdown Shuffle, which runs January 13-26. This mode is going to change which character you're controlling, often at random intervals.

Showdown Shuffle locks players into a role, but not a particular hero. Instead, hero swaps can occur when players reach certain milestones for kills or assists, or even when players are eliminated. According to Blizzard, this was done to encourage players to experiment with new characters and adapt on the fly. Showdown Shuffle will be a 5v5 battle available in Control, Hybrid, Escort, Push, and Flashpoint. Match modifiers will also change throughout the battle for more unpredictable outcomes.

Starting today through January 11, Assault will return during a Quick Play Hacked event that brings back classic Overwatch maps Temple of Anubis, Hanamura, and Volskaya Industries. It's a fitting start the year, considering that 2026 will mark the 10th anniversary of Overwatch.

Predator: Badlands stars Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi as Dek and Elle Fanning, who plays twin sisters Thia and Tessa. Thia is a Weyland-Yutani Corporation synthetic who lost her legs in battle. She defies her programming and teams up with Dek, who builds a backpack-style wheelchair to carry her throughout the hunt. This unique setup leads to some inventive action sequences. Tessa, meanwhile, is the primary antagonist in Badlands. Fanning does a great job portraying both characters, and Koloamatangi's performance as the new Predator is superb.

Near the end of October 2025, Rockstar fired over thirty devs in the United Kingdom and Canada over what it called "gross misconduct." The Independent Workers' Union of Great Britain accused Rockstar of union busting for laying off workers who were organizing with the union. Both sides have held firm since the initial accusations, and now the battle has gone to court in the UK.

As reported by Video Games Chronicle, Rockstar and the IWGB went before the court earlier this week, where the latter requested that the fired workers be given "interim relief" while the legal drama plays out. If granted, that would place the affected workers back on Rockstar's payroll and allow some to keep their visas that were reliant on their jobs. The court will reportedly decide on the matter before the end of the week.

The IWGB pledged to continue fighting for the workers regardless of the court's decision, while Rockstar reiterated its position that the workers broke the company's policy.

Nintendo has revealed its first set of new Joy-Con controllers for the Nintendo Switch 2 and I'll be honest, I'm a bit disappointed.

To be clear, I'm not disappointed (or surprised) by the $100 price tag, as the original Switch Joy-Cons are still $90, the standard Switch 2 Joy-Cons are $100, and all gaming hardware is pretty expensive right now. No, it's not the cost that bothers me, but rather how little these new Joy-Cons differentiate themselves from the pair that already exist.

Similar to the original Switch's Joy-Cons, it appears that the various colorways for the Switch 2 versions will feature two different colors; in the case of these newly announced Joy-Cons, those colors are a bright, pastel purple and a vibrant aqua that the company refers to as "Light Green." Despite not fully agreeing with Nintendo on what constitutes light green, I actually really like these new colors. It took a long time for me to care for any of the original Switch's Joy-Con colorways enough to purchase them, as the vast majority are extremely saturated and don't feature color combinations that I feel pair well together. I was so starved for options, in fact, that I purchased the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Switch largely because I thought it featured the best Joy-Con colors available. In that sense, these new Joy-Cons definitely feel like an improvement.

Grand Theft Auto 6 is still a little over 10 months away, assuming its November 2026 release window holds. Earlier this week, GTA 6 watchers were unsettled when Bloomberg's Jason Schreier noted that the game might not be as "content complete" as Rockstar has said in the past, and he didn't rule out another delay. Some fans took that as if GTA 6 was already pushed back again, which is why Schreier has stepped forward to clarify his comments.

During a recent appearance on the Button Mash podcast, Schreier said, "The last I heard, [GTA 6] was still not content complete. That is to say people were still finishing things up, still finalizing levels, and missions, and seeing what is going to make it into the game." He added that he doesn't "think anyone at Rockstar can tell you, with 100% certainty, that they will make it out in November."

Schreier responded to reports based on his comments by reiterating that he "wouldn't be shocked if GTA 6 'does' come out this fall, following the same delay pattern as [Red Dead Redemption 2]." He also characterized some of the reports as, "a complete misunderstanding of what I said."

Near the end of 2024, CD Projekt Red put The Witcher 4 into full development with a release date potentially years away. Now, some outlets are putting forth theories that there may be a new Witcher 3 expansion to fill the gap between the present and the fourth game's release.

IGN Poland and Eurogamer separately released stories suggesting that The Witcher 3 will get its first expansion since Blood and Wine was released in 2016. Eurogamer's report suggests that the drive to release something new this year is because CD Projekt Red is behind sales goals that would trigger financial incentives for its employees.

That program has been mentioned by the company itself, which stated in a 2025 investor's call that, "There is a chance that new content hinted upon in recent calls and reports may see release in the coming year, having an impact on our results and increasing the likelihood of achieving the earnings condition for the first stage of the incentive program."

Nintendo Switch 2 Light Green and Light Purple Joy-Con 2 (2-Pack)

$100 | Releases February 12

Preorder at Best Buy Preorder at Amazon Preorder at Nintendo

Nintendo has unveiled its first set of new Joy-Con 2 colors: Light Purple and Light Green. These add a pastel accent to the controllers, and preorders for the $100 set--the same price as a standard set of Light Blue and Light Red Joy-Con 2 controllers--are now open ahead of their February 12 launch. Both controllers also come with matching wrist straps.

Nintendo Switch 2 Light Green and Light Purple Joy-Con 2 (2-Pack) $100 | Releases February 12

This isn't a complete makeover of the Joy-Con 2, as the new color appears on the base of the thumbstick and the included wrist strap. This means that the colors will be hard to spot, unless you use one of the Joy-Con 2 controllers on their own during a multiplayer game like Mario Kart World.

The Joy-Con 2 controllers feature motion controls, improved HD Rumble, NFC support for Amiibo, and are slightly larger than the original Switch Joy-Cons. Mouse Mode is a new addition that lets you turn the controllers on their sides and use them like a computer mouse in compatible games like Metroid Prime 4, Fortnite, and Civilization 7.

You'll also find the new C button to access the Switch 2's GameChat feature on the right Joy-Con 2, and the magnetic connection lets them snap firmly into place on the console.

The controllers are also arriving just in time for Mario Tennis Fever, which will be released on the same day. Mario Tennis Fever's physical edition is up for preorder at Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and GameStop. The game is also compatible with original Joy-Con controllers, and these are still readily available.

If you don't feel like waiting, you can pick up several other Switch 2 controller accessories. Individual left- and right-hand Joy-Con 2 controllers can be purchased, or, for something more traditional, the Switch 2 Pro Controller is a sturdy option for playing games. Like most things in life, these accessories saw their price increase last year. Nintendo raised the MSRP on most of its products by $5-$10 each.

Arc Raiders sends you on a handful of quests seeking out evidence of survivors, including A Warm Place to Rest. In this quest, you'll have to find any signs that raiders have survived topside near the Abandoned Highway Camp in Buried City. We'll tell you everything you need to know about this quest and how to complete it in this guide.

You don't need to extract to complete A Warm Place to Rest, but you will be trekking across the entire Buried City map to complete the objectives. With this in mind, a free loadout may not be your best bet, as you're rather likely to encounter raiders or ARC, which means you'll probably need extra healing items. It's your choice, of course, but we'd recommend bringing a decent gun or two, and enough heals to keep you trucking along safely.

When you're ready to finish A Warm Place to Rest, follow the steps below.

Arc Raiders' Buried City map is home to a lot of the game's most interesting quests, including Communication Hideout, which sends you to the Red Tower to complete various steps so that you can boot up an antenna. If you're setting out to check this one off your list, we've got every step listed out for you.

You won't need to extract to finish this quest, so come in with a free loadout if you'd rather play it safe. Losing valuable items while questing is never fun, after all. That being said, there's some potentially good loot near the quest's Red Tower POI, such as the Santa Maria houses, so there's more to do in the area if you want to come better prepared.

Either way, when you're ready to complete Communication Hideout, follow the steps below.

Arc Raiders occasionally sends you on quests that require you to enter areas that require a key. One of these quests, Lost in Transmission, asks you to head up into Spaceport's Control Tower A6, where you'll need to establish a connection from a terminal there. We're here to guide you through each step of this short but potentially dangerous quest.

There are two important things to note about this quest:

• You must bring the Spaceport Control Tower Key into the raid. You will be granted this key upon accepting the quest, and you will not be able to open the necessary door and reach the terminal without it. Place the key in a safe pocket to ensure it's not lost during any potential firefights you encounter. If you didn't bring it or have already lost it, there's a chance someone else will have opened the door, but otherwise you'll need to acquire a new key, which can be found randomly as loot on any map.
• Speaking of firefights, the locked room of Control Tower A6 tends to contain really good loot, so other raiders will often contest this location. If you're lucky, your visit to Control Tower A6 may end up quiet. But there's always a chance that you'll need to take someone out, so come prepared.

When you're ready to tackle Lost in Transmission, follow the steps below.

GameStop announced this week that a proposed pay package worth approximately $35 billion for its CEO, Ryan Cohen, was in the works. The compensation is tied entirely to the company's performance and depends on a major turnaround. To earn it, Cohen must increase GameStop's market value by more than 10 times and significantly raise profits.

Meeting these goals would require a big change for GameStop, which has struggled in recent years. Its stock price is also severely down from the record highs reached in 2021, when GameStop gained popularity among retail investors during the meme-stock surge.

Even at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, GameStop was already planning on matching the number of store closures from the previous year.
