Total War: Warhammer 40k release date speculation and what to expect
Total War finally heads to the 40K era with the next major entry in Creative Assembly's franchise.
Warhammer and Total War are like bread and butter. They just go together all the time and with any combination of filling you like, and that isn't set to change, as Creative Assembly just announced the next entry in the Total War saga. Total War: Warhammer 40K finally takes the strategy franchise to the 40K era of Warhammer, with a bleak, galactic war where "mankind's vast armies battle to protect their crumbling empire." While details are scarce right now we do have a first look at gameplay and some new additions to the franchise. Here is what we know so far: Total War: Warhammer 40k release date speculation Total War: Warhammer 40k does not have a confirmed release date. Therefore, we can speculate that it will arrive in late 2026 or even 2027. The game will release on PC and also be the Total War's debut on consoles with a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S release. Although, it isn't clear if this will be a simultaneous release between PC and consoles. We will see more from the game in 2026 so stay tuned for additional details as we update this guide when we hear more from Creative Assembly. Total War: Warhammer 40k what to expect Total War: Warhammer 40K is set in the grim dark 40K universe as you go on a crusade, capturing planets, hijacking fleets, and managing your war economy on the road to dominance. The game gives you control of four iconic factions from the lore, including the Space Marines, Astra Militarum, Orks, and Aeldari, with each one offering their own individual playstyles. No matter which faction you play, the game's campaigns and battles will offer destructible terrain, diverse biomes, and elite squads and war machines to unleash a variety of abilities that give you the edge in the fight. One exciting feature for hardcore tabletop fans, is that Total War: Warhammer 40K will allow you to fully customise your faction, a first for Total War. This means you can shape the faction's title, iconography, heraldry, and arcane wargear, defining their traits, tactics, and style. View oEmbed on the source website Game Director, Attila Mohacsi has the following to say after the game's announcement: "Warhammer 40,000 is a science-fantasy setting without equal. Its galactic scale, iconic factions, and brutal battles have contributed to a universe that gels perfectly with Total War’s DNA. We’ve worked with Games Workshop for over 15 years and can’t wait to continue that partnership with the aim of creating the definitive Warhammer 40,000 strategy experience just like we did with the Total War: Warhammer series." As mentioned we should see more in 2026, so stay tuned as we update this article in the months to come.

Divinity: Release date speculation and what to expect from Larian's next game
Larian's biggest game ever is still likely a while away.
Larian has unveiled what it has been working on since the immense success of Baldur's Gate 3 in 2023 and it is a new entry in the Divinity series. Unrelated to any of the other games, including the Original Sin sub-franchise, Divinity is a gory, gruesome, and immense RPG descirbed as Larian's biggest game to date. While we only have a teaser trailer, we do have some lore details on the mysterious statue shown at the end of the trailer, which was used to hype up the reveal. Here is when we may see Divinity release and what you can expect from it. Divinity release date speculation Divinity's release date is currently unknown, but if we were to speculate it won't release until 2028 or 2029 at the earliest. Larian are building their biggest game yet and Baldur's Gate 3 only released two and a half years ago. While the studio has staffed up dramatically, Larian's success with their previous game means they are unlikely to rush development of their next blockbuster RPG. On top of that, given we don't have platforms yet and the game's trailer was a CGI tone piece, it suggests Divinity is a long way off from hitting your PC or console, possibly even being one of the first next-gen games announced. Larian will probably go quiet for a while now, but expect to hear more in 2026 or 2027, where hopefully we get a rough release window for Divinity. View oEmbed on the source website What to expect from Divinity Divinity is described as Larian unchaining "its ambitions to bring you an RPG with greater breadth and depth than ever before." That is a bold statement and Sven Vincke, founder and game director at Larian Studios, backs it up: "Despite our long history with the series, this is our first game entitled ‘Divinity.’ We’re ready to bring everything we’ve done previously into one place. This marks the beginning of something with more breadth, depth, and intimacy than anything we’ve created before. We’ve been building toward this moment ever since we took our fate into our own hands. This is the Divinity we’ve always wanted to make and you're going to have loads of fun with it." All of this points to a game with more player choice, character customisation, build crafting, and the ability to shape your own stories in ways beyond what Baldur's Gate 3 offered. Details are vague, but the mysterious statue is called the Hellstone according to Larian's publishing director Michael Douse. Detailed in a tweet, it appears to be a central part of Divinity's lore and story, as the burning effigy in the trailer appears to be a celebration or tradition of sorts. As mentioned, details are vague and a lot of this speculative right now, so we will have to wait to hear more from Larian. We will keep this article updated as new information arrives.

Two new Tomb Raider games revealed, with Alix Wilton Regan cast as Lara Croft
A remake to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series and a game to enter the next era of the franchise.
After years of being stuck in Limbo and seven years since the last major new entry in the series, Crystal Dynamics and Amazon Game Studios have finally revealed what the future of Tomb Raider looks like at The Game Awards 2025 and it is an extremely exciting one. The studios revealed two games last night: Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis and Tomb Raider: Catalyst, with British actress Alix Wilton Regan cast as Lara Croft in this new era of the franchise. Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis releases in 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, marking the 30th anniversary of the franchise and is a modern reimagining of Lara Croft's original adventure from 1996. With modern graphics, updated game design, and a recreation in Unreal Engine 5, the game seems to act as a bridging point for this new era of the Tomb Raider franchise. View oEmbed on the source website While Crystal Dynamics, who have long helmed the Tomb Raider series, are working on Legacy of Atlantis, development is being assisted by Flying Wild Hog, a Polish action game studio behind the likes of the Shadow Warrior series and Evil West. While initially an odd fit, both studios are owned by Embracer after the company's acquisition spree earlier this decade. In a press release Michał Szustak, CEO of Flying Wild Hog, spoke about the announcement of Legacy of Atlantis: "Our partnership with Crystal Dynamics and Amazon Game Studios marks one of the most significant creative undertakings in our history...Bringing our passion and expertise into such an iconic IP is both an honor and a creative thrill. Crafting a modern reimagining of Lara’s original adventure is a responsibility we embrace with passion and absolute focus. With Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, we’re expanding the universe while staying loyal to what fans have always loved. We can’t wait for players around the world to experience the results of our hard work and dedication." View oEmbed on the source website Onto the second game! Tomb Raider: Catalyst is the next mainline entry in the series, which has been in development at Crystal Dynamics since 2022. Set to launch in 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, Tomb Raider: Catalyst features a redesigned Lara Croft, a mix of the classic design and the more modern "survivor" Lara we saw in the recent trilogy. The trailer is only a brief teaser, but Crystal Dynamics have confirmed that the game sends Lara to Northern India in the "wake of a mythical cataclysm that has unleashed ancient secrets and awakened the mysterious forces that guard them." Treasure hunters descend on the region and Lara races to discover the truth buried under the land and stop those who would use the secrets for their own nefarious reasons. "As the ancient world collides with the present, Lara must decide who to trust among rivals and allies to prevent a catastrophe and protect a secret that could reshape the future." Alix Wilton Regan will play Lara Croft in both games, having previously teased to Radio Times Gaming that she had a been reveal coming soon. This must've been it! View oEmbed on the source website Alix Wilton Regan has had several on-screen and voice acting roles throughout the years, appearing in Dragon Age: Inquisition, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Cyberpunk 2077, Lies of P: Overture, Assassin's Creed: Origins, and more games, alongside animated shows like DOTA: Dragon's Blood and The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball. Speaking on the partnership between Crystal Dynamics and Amazon Game Studios, Scot Amos, Head of Studio at Crystal Dynamics said: "Our collaboration with Amazon Game Studios has been truly transformative for these ambitious projects... Amazon’s partnership has provided the resources, expertise, and creative freedom necessary to realize our vision for both games without compromise. With Tom Raider: Catalyst, we're crafting our most expansive and innovative Tomb Raider adventure yet, while Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis allows us to revisit where it all began through a modern lens. This collaboration with Amazon has empowered us to create experiences that honor Lara's legacy while pushing the boundaries of what's possible for the franchise." Both games were one of several major announcements at The Game Awards 2025, where Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 swept most of the awards it was nominated for, including winning Game of the Year.

007 First Light confirms music icon for Bond villain role in much-anticipated video game
A familiar face joins 007 First Light's star-studded cast.
The 007 First Light release date is fast approaching and IO Interactive have just debuted a brand new trailer for the game showcasing the game's villain, or at least one of them. This villain is called Bawma and he resides in Aleph, Maruitania. He is played by none other than music icon Lenny Kravitz. Yes, really. It's a pretty surprising casting, but does fit some of the wacky and surprising castings we have seen from the Bond franchise over the years. The trailer doesn't give much away about how big of a role Bawma will play, but he will at least be a central figure during the missions which take place in Aleph. 007 First Light could have even more villains, especially if IO Interactive are opting for several villains across the game's different locales and missions, but Bawma could be a central figure in the plot and main story too. We will have to wait for more details from IO Interactive, or the game's full release to know for sure. Lenny Kravitz has played a variety of roles over the years, in addition to his successful music career. This includes portraying the role of Cinna in The Hunger Games and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. He joins a packed cast of other familiar faces, including Patrick Gibson (Dexter: Original Sin, Shadow and Bone, the OA) as James Bond himself. Other casting choices include Priyanga Burford (Industry, No Time To Die) as M, Alastair Mackenzie (Andor, The Crown) as Q, and Lennie James (The Walking Dead) as Greenway. Meanwhile, Gemma Chan (Eternals, Crazy Rich Asians, Humans) plays Dr. Selina Tan, Kiera Lester (Maigret, Ruby Speaking) is Moneypenny, and finally, Noémie Nakai (Tokyo Vice, Army of Thieves) is Ms. Roth. We should see even more cast announcements before the game launches on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2 on 27th March 2026. In the meantime, check out the interview below to learn more from Jonathan Lacaille, the franchise director behind 007 First Light. It was an interesting chat!

Here is what you can do to complete the quest in addition to some tips for following the clues in other missions. Arc Raiders Marked For Death guide To follow the clues in Marked For Death, you need to: Visit the Su Durante Warehouses in the north of Buried City. It is just north of Marano Park.

It's quite obvious in amongst the sand. Once you interact with the metal, the quest will complete. As mentioned, the vagueness of the quest makes it challenging to acutally complete, but in reality the steps are simple and straightforward. When it comes to other 'Follow The Clues' questlines, it is worth looking closely at the map and the quest description as they can often hint as to where you need to go, especially for the quests on Spaceport and The Blue Gate.

The weather is changing Topside, and it's vital you prepare for what is to come.
Arc Raiders' second major post-launch update is arriving soon, with a Cold Snap on the horizon, bringing a bunch of new winter themed weather changes, new quests, and more. Embark have begun teasing the new update, as well as detailing what to expect in the original roadmap for the game.

Arc Raiders Cold Snap Release Date The Cold Snap update for Arc Raiders will release on 16th December, 2026, which is the same time as the Trials season and ranked season will reset. The Expedition window will open on the following day. This comes around five weeks after the last major content update for the game which added the new map Stella Montis, the Breaking New Ground event, and two new Arc types, alongside a number of other updates and new quests. Meanwhile, the update comes mere days after the exploit fixes and bug fixes of 11th December. While this update isn't adding a new map, it is undoubtedly going to bring a similar level of content. Arc Raiders Cold Snap: What To Expect The Cold Snap update hasn't had any information revealed about it just yet. But, the teaser image from Embark does give us some clues. This image includes a snowy map, which indicates a new weather event will be added to the game in the form of snowfall.

On top of that, the update will add new quests and a new Raider Deck, although we can expect some more items as well.

Arc Raiders update today (11th December): What changes in the patch notes?
A small patch before a big content update.
Arc Raiders' latest update is here, bringing some much needed exploit fixes and bug fixes ahead of the Cold Snap update, which is set to release on 16th December, 2025. This update provides a small amount of changes, and is much smaller compared to the other updates seen in the game. This is down to a few reasons. In the Twitter/X post about the update, Embark say that the schedule of updates is moving to every Tuesday and that updates will not be on a weekly cadence due to the holiday period. This seems like it will change again in January once the bulk of Embark are back to work at the studio. Don't expect any new content here, that is coming next week with the Cold Snap Update, which you can find a full-detailed overview of here. View oEmbed on the source website Full Patch Notes for Arc Raiders Update (December 11) Removed zipline out-of-bounds exploit on Stella Montis. Fixed vaulting bug on Blue Gate. Corrected material issues affecting bullet/blocking & ARC vision. Closed gap in Spaceport Launch Tower wall. Hopefully the zipline exploit and Spaceport fix will finally fix two issues that have been fairly persistent in recent weeks, ever since Embark patched the ability to get behind locked doors without a key. These kinds of exploits have been persistent throughout the entirity of the game since launch and has caused many players to leave the game, before returning when they were finally patched. Let's hope the Cold Snap update doesn't cause any more issues or new problems that need an urgent patch or fix.

When is CODMAS 2025? Start date speculation and what to expect
Deck the halls with stocking fillers inside Call of Duty this Christmas
CODMAS is finally upon us once again and it is bringing a host of new events, limited-time modes, maps, and rewards across Black Ops 7's Endgame, multiplayer, and Zombies, as well as in Warzone. Like last year, there will be some exclusive rewards to earn, alongside some new weapons during the event, which you won't want to miss out on, as they will become harder to obtain from the Armory. Here is a rundown of the CODMAS event in 2025 and what you can expect from it: When is CODMAS 2025? Start date speculation CODMAS 2025 is expected to start between 15th December 2025 and 19th December 2025, the week before Christmas and the holiday break. Not only is this midway between the release of Season 1 and the expected release of Season 1 Reloaded in January, it also is the last week the event could realistically take place before Christmas Day on the following Thursday. CODMAS last year started much earlier, but Black Ops 6 released around three weeks before Black Ops 7 did this year, so a mid December release makes the most sense. What to expect from CODMAS 2025 CODMAS 2025 will feature a unique set of rewards and items to earn as a part of either a reward track for earning XP or a gacha-style unlock event with rewards unlocked as you gain tokens or other items. The exact way this will work this year isn't known right now, but the Call of Duty blog should reveal all before the event starts. There will be a new map in multiplayer: Sleighjacked, which is a festive take on Hijacked. Holiday Havoc and Snowfight will also be available as limited time modes. Zombies will also receive the Jingle Hells mode once again and a mode called List Keeper's Challenge. Finally, Warzone will receive the Holiday Rush Limited time mode during CODMAS. It is likely that the CODMAS event will hide the Sturmwolf 45 SMG, the SOKOL-545 LMG, the NX Ravager crossbow, or the Hawker HX weapons, with the rest available during other events in Season 1, as we have seen in previous years. We should know more this week or next week, so be sure to stay tuned for the latest updates. Check out more of our Gaming coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.

Arc Raiders mushroom locations: Where to get mushrooms explained
Arc Raiders is filled with resources, plants, and other items to collect. But, one of the key plants players are after are Mushrooms, which are quite rare, hard to find, and valuable. Chances are though, you have just walked right past them, as they can often be found on the ground, blending in with the dirt and hillsides Topside. Here is a rundown of where you can find Mushrooms and the key upgrades they are used for. Arc Raiders mushroom location The best places to find mushrooms in Arc Raiders are: Hydroponic Dome Complex on Dam Battlegrounds Other key Nature areas, like Marano Park in Buried City During Lush Bloom events These mushrooms are small and white, and often sitting on the waterline or on hillsides, which makes the Hydroponic Dome Complex a great place to find them. Keep an eye out and walk along the waterline where it meets the small hills and shores to find them. Elsewhere, nature areas are the best spot to look, with Marano Park in Buried City being another key location they can be found. Otherwise The Blue Gate map is a fantastic map for finding mushrooms due to its rural nature, especially in the north near the wreckage of Arcs as water can be found there. These mushrooms are rare so you may have to try multiple Raids to even find one or two mushrooms to use. Although, they can spawn more often during Lush Bloom events. With these mushrooms you can regain a small amount of health when consuming them. But, more importantly, a dozen of them are needed for Scrappy, when you want to level him up to level 5.

Arc Raiders Expedition date, rewards and what to expect
Arc Raiders players can finally look forward to the Expedition departing in mid December. After almost two months of building up resources, gaining stash value, and preparing to start fresh over the holiday break, the game's Expedition departure window is almost upon us. Expeditions act as Arc Raiders' wipe system and unlock at level 20, allowing you to start a new character with no loot, no skills, and at level one when the Expedition window has ended. However, there are some bonuses you can earn if you do send your Raider on an Expedition, and these are permanant across your account, allowing you to retain them with each Expedition. Here is a rundown of the Expedition departure window and what you can prepare for: Arc Raiders Expedition departure date The first Expedition for Arc Raiders will open for departure on 17th December 2025. You will have until 22nd December 2025 to confirm whether you want your Raider to depart, with everyone leaving on the same day at the same time on 22nd December 2025. Once you send your Raider off, you will no longer be able to access any of their loot, gear, skills, or items. You will lose your Skill Tree, Level, Stash, Workshop Upgrades, Crafting Abilities, and Blueprints. You will effectively start from the beginning of the game again (skipping the tutorial). You have until 16th December 2025 to supply your Raider with the caravan and Expedition materials needed. Once this date passes, you will need to wait until the next Expedition window over the following eight weeks after 22nd December 2025. Arc Raiders Expedition rewards If you choose to depart, you will get the following rewards: The Patchwork Raider outfit Scrappy Janitor Cap Expeditions Indicator icon Skill points (1 Skill point per 1 million stash/coin value) +12 Stash space 10% repair buff (temporary) 5% XP boost (temporary) 6% more materials from Scrappy (temporary) Most of the rewards are permanent, meaning they will stay on your account forever. But, the repair buff, XP boost, and Scrappy material gain are all temporary, ending at the end of the next Expedition window if you choose to hold onto your Raider and not cause them to depart. While these rewards aren't going to completely change how you play the game or give you an edge over anyone else, they are significant and over the course of several Expedition windows, they will stack up quite quickly. Keep in mind that the Skill points you earn are based off your total stash value as well as your Coins tied to your Raider. So you can sell items for money, if you are running out of stash space to boost your stash value.

Arc Raiders Trials this week: Full list revealed
The key objectives to focus on for the week.
Trials are a revolving set of objectives in Arc Raiders that offer unique rewards for completing them. Each objective has a set star rating and the more of the objective you complete in one match, the higher your rating will be. Completing these objectives then allows you to move through the game’s ranking system with each promotion window, when the objectives change and refresh. These objectives and the scores tied to them are based on your best performance in a single raid Topside. Therefore, you want to try and focus in one area during a raid to achieve the maximum possible points. Keep in mind that points are doubled in major map conditions like Electromagnetic Storms and Night Raids. Alongside moving through the ranks, you can earn reward boxes based on your star rating across all the categories (with a three star Epic reward box available for reaching 4,000 points in each objective). These refresh when the objectives refresh. You will then get a selection of rewards based on your final position at the end of the Trials season. Arc Raiders trials: Full list for this week The full list of Trials for the week between December 12, 2025 - December 16, 2025 is: Destroy Ticks, Fireballs and Hornets Search Supply Drops Damage Wasps Damage Bastions Damage Queens or Matriarchs When it comes to destroying Ticks, Fireballs and Hornets, your best bet is to enter Stella Montis or Buried City. Locations like Space Travel, the Parking Garage, and the Galleria are great places to find all three in Buried City. On Stella Montis, you want to visit the lobby and its surrounding corridors in hopes that you get the Arc enemies to spawn, instead of the more deadly Shredders. Similarly when it comes to Supply Drops, drop into Buried City, which is the smallest map, allowing you to get several Supply Drop call-ins in one match. Be sure to loot as much as you can from them. Wasps are incredibly common and more rural maps like The Blue Gate and Dam Battlegrounds provide enough open space to take them down. A good tip too is to let Snitches call in Wasps when they see you, allowing extra Wasps to spawn in fairly quickly and easily. Bastions are tough Arc enemies, but use your Legendary weapons and Wolfpack Grenades to take them down and strip their armour. Buried City is the best map for this because a Bastion can almost always be found near the Parking Garage or Marano Park, and other players are nearby, allowing them to help you out. It also provides a lot of cover, thanks to the buildings. Queens or Matriarchs will require some luck, such as entering maps like The Blue Gate Dam Battlegrounds, and Spaceport and hoping other players work together to take them down. You will need excellent gear to be able to take them down and a lot of it, to do the most damage possible. Alternatively, you can team up with other players in a party and join a group game, where you will have more firepower, but other Raiders are far more hostile during those matches. When do trials change in Arc Raiders? Trials change every Monday during the early hours of the morning, allowing you to tackle a new set in the new week. The only difference is at the end of a Ranked season, where the Trial will change on the following Tuesday. Throughout this week, you have the ability to earn as many points as possible in each of the categories to increase your position on your rank leaderboard. If you are in the top 30, you will rise two ranks. The top 30 below that will rise one rank. Finally, the bottom group will stay where they are. Trials are expected to change and be adjusted throughout the months and with new updates, so be sure to keep an eye out for any changes to the system or ranking.

How to activate the music Easter egg in CoD BO7 Astra Malorum explained
One of the hardest music easter eggs in Zombies.
Astra Malorum in CoD Black Ops 7, like most Zombies maps these days is packed full of Easter eggs and, as usual, has a music Easter egg.

Thankfully, there isn't anything more complex you need to do than any of the other music Easter eggs, but you will need to complete most of the Easter egg steps to reach the secret area. Here is a breakdown of the three headphone locations to activate the song, which brings back Avenged Sevenfold to the series. Keep in mind, there are slight spoilers below for the Easter egg and main storyline of Astra Malorum.

When and where to get Double XP tokens and codes in CoD BO7
Where to get the tokens to rank up faster
CoD BO7 XP gain is pretty generous in multiplayer, but can be quite slow in the other modes and as such you may be looking for some of the Double XP Tokens to use. But, how can you get them? The answer is you can't right now, but here are the sources where they will be available from. How to get CoD BO7 Double XP Double XP Tokens will be obtained from the Battle Pass or via the Free Gift in the Store. Double XP will also be available during Double XP weekends, which will be announced by Activision prior to them taking place. You will also see the Double XP weekend reflected in game, whether there is double XP, double weapon XP, or double Battle Pass XP. On top of that, the Double XP Tokens you have accumulated in other games and Warzone will carry over to this game, so you can start with a huge chunk of Double XP Tokens if you want. Although, it is worth saving them for when a Double XP weekend is on so you can boost your XP gain even further.

How to kill OSCAR in CoD BO7 Astra Malorum explained
You need to be resourceful to defeat OSCAR.
Astra Malorum is a vastly different map to Ashes of the Damned in CoD Black Ops 7, offering a tighter more intense experience set on a floating skull orbiting Saturn. One of the key differences is OSCAR, a roaming boss-like enemy that is incredibly hard to kill and quite deadly thanks to his attacks. These attacks consist of little UFO drones that protect OSCAR, that need to be destroyed before you can damage him properly, and an attack that causes Zombies to target you if you are shot by him. While OSCAR is slow, allowing you to easily avoid him by moving around the map, he can be quite annoying to deal with and there are some ways to kill him, although it will require a bit of effort to kill him effectively. How to kill OSCAR in CoD Black Ops 7 Astra Malorum OSCAR can be killed in several ways with traps around the map: Use the telescope on the organ near the pack-a-punch machine and focus it on the sun. Have OSCAR walk into the center of the room under the beam which is fired. Collect three Absolute Zero shards from Aetherium Crystals around the map by shooting them with a weapon with Cryofreeze ammo mod. Use these on the rocket in the museum and have OSCAR walk by it's rear. Place the damaged drone, wires, and car battery inside the projector in the Luminarium and activate the laser trap. The easiest of these is the beam of sunlight in the pack-a-punch room. Once you have obtained the harmonic components from around the map, use it on the organ in the room with the power to be able to turn on power. From there, shoot the moving mechanisms on the wall throughout the room in the order they start moving. Once OSCAR is near, interact with the telescope next to the keys of the organ and hover the crosshair over the sun. If you get kicked out, you can instantly look back through the telescope to find the sun. This will cause a beam of light to fire on the central platform in front of the organ and pack-a-punch and instantly killing OSCAR once he walks under it. You can also find Absolute Zero shards from Aetherium Crystals scattered across the map. Shooting these with a weapon with the Cryofreeze ammo mod on will cause the shards to drop. Once you have three, head to the museum and interact with the rocket model, when OSCAR is near. Once you have interacted with it, a countdown sequence will begin. When it reaches zero, make sure OSCAR walks behind the rear of the rocket, into the ice blast which emerges. This will instantly kill him. Finally, you need to grab three items from around the map. First, shoot one of OSCAR's flying drones, and pick it up from the ground. Next, shoot Tessie's front bumper with a pack-a-punched weapon to get the battery. Finally, look for a flashing lampost on the outside areas of the map. Once shot, pick up the wires that drop. Then use the items on the projector in the Luminarium and kill OSCAR with the laser trap in the room. Keep in mind that each trap can only be activated once per round, so ensure OSCAR is close when you do this. Killing OSCAR with each of these traps once will also drop the LGM-1, the new wonder weapon from his body.

Fortnite recreates lost Kill Bill scene, 20 years after Quentin Tarantino wrote it
Quentin Tarantino brings a lost scene from his iconic movies to life to kick off the new Fortnite season.
Fortnite has just entered Chapter Seven: Pacific Break this past weekend with an incredible live event and to tie-in with the new chapter, Quentin Tarantino has teamed up with Epic Games to create a lost scene from Kill Bill in the game. The scene, known as The Lost Chapter: Yuki's Revenge was originally created and written by Tarantino for the movies, but it never made it to the screen. Instead, the Hollywood director has decided to bring it to life in 2025 within Fortnite, as the film returns to cinemas this weekend as Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair, a full length, four-and-a-half-hour feature. The Lost Chapter: Yuki's Revenge is around 10 minutes long and was built entirely within Unreal Engine and was directed by Tarantino himself, with Uma Thurman starring as The Bride. Uma Thurman's iconic Kill outfit is also available in Chapter Seven's battle pass. “Bringing this into Fortnite sounded cool and felt like a wonderful fit for the game world and the characters,” Tarantino said. “I was waiting for when the time was right, and Fortnite was right — something cinematic inside a much bigger world.” Uma Thurman got to see her character in Fortnite on a stream with Typical Gamer, which can be watched on Instagram. View oEmbed on the source website Once the animated film plays in-game, the scene can be rewatched in the Discover page within Fortnite. Alongside debuting in the game, the short will play alongside the limited run of Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair in the United Kingdom, United States and Canada. Fortnite has really gone all out with Season 7, shaking up the formula substantially with the Battle Bus being destroyed and players joining into the battle royale by surfing towards the island from the edge of the ring. Prior to Season 7, Epic Games also launched a Stranger Things collaboration to tie in with the release of Season 5 Volume 1 last week.

This will include Yakei, Meltdown, and an unannounced map. CoD Bo7 Season 1 new weapons Season 1 will also add seven new weapons. These include the Maddox assault rifle from CoD Black Ops 4 and the Crossbow and Ballistic Knife, with the classic Sticks and Stones mode being teased for Season 1 too. The Kogot-7 SMG will also be arriving at launch, alongside the Sokol 545 LMG in the season. Finally, the Hawker HX sniper rifle and Sturmwolf 45 SMG will also be arriving mid-season. Sticks and Stones forces you to use both of those weapons to reach a certain threshold of kills in a free-for-all style format. While not a weapon, Season 1 will also add a new scorestreak called the Deadeye Drone, which is a small helicopter like drone with a railgun attached to it. CoD Bo7 Season 1 Zombies Three Zombies maps will arrive with CoD Bo7 Season 1. These will include a brand new full-scale map, Astra Malorum, which will continue the main Easter egg storyline of the game, as well as Exit 115 and Cosmodrome from the Ashes of the Damned map. The full intro cinematic for this map can be seen below: View oEmbed on the source website Season 1 will also add in every Field Upgrade and Ammo mod from CoD Black Ops 6. This includes Light Mend, Mister Peeks and Frost Blast. Limited time Zombies modes will also be added. This is easily the most content Zombies has seen in a Season and will certainly make fans happy. You can see a deeper look at this in the gameplay trailer for the Astra Malorum map. View oEmbed on the source website CoD Bo7 Season 1 Warzone integration On top of all of that, CoD Bo7 Season 1 will also integrate Warzone into the full progression systems of Black Ops 7, meaning every new weapon and item will be added to the mode, alongside unique camo challenges, new Calling Card challenges and more. A new map will also be launching in the Resurgence mode: Haven's Hollow. This is an expanded version of Liberty Falls from Black Ops 6 Zombies and features other key Zombies locations like the manor from Shattered Veil, and Janus Towers from Ashes of the Damned.

GTA 6 animation footage appears to have leaked online
It's not much but it could be something...
With everyone hungry for any piece of news on GTA 6, it seems like a developer has given us a little taste of what to expect thanks to a demo reel. This reel is from a former Rockstar developer, Benjamin Chue, and showcases a number of animations that don't appear to be from any other Rockstar game. First spotted by throwaway-sadkid8012 on Reddit, the montage is around two minutes long and includes clips for Max Payne 3, GTA 5, and Red Dead Redemption 2. But, before all of those games are shown, some animations which aren't displayed in gameplay appear, suggesting these could be for GTA 6. This small leak comes just a few weeks after GTA 6 was delayed for the second time to 19th November 2026 and almost seven months after the last trailer, which debuted in May 2025. The animations in question are right at the beginning of the demo reel and include a male taking a bike off a bike stand and sitting on it, as well as the same male putting the bike back into the bike rack. These bikes bear the name 'LomBike' in the clip, which suggest a relation to the Lombank banking company which appears in GTA 4 and GTA 5. Therefore, it seems like players will be able to rent bikes, with rental bike racks spotted in the game's trailers. The second animation clip shows a woman getting down into the bed of a truck and jumping off the roof of the truck. This woman looks strikingly similar to Lucia (albeit in an untexturised, basic character model form). These animations won't necessarily be from gameplay, as many of the animations in this demo reel are from cutscenes or seen on NPCs, so they could be from other areas of the game or not appear in the game at all. While we haven't heard anything about GTA 6 in over half a year, former Rockstar boss Dan Houser has said that the game "will be great". Job listings from earlier in the year also suggest that the game may have a companion app of some kind. Stay tuned to RadioTimes.com for more information on the game and the latest updates as and when we hear them.

Best CoD BO7 Warden 308 loadout, best attachments, class setup
The best loadout and class setup for the Warden 308 in CoD BO7 to one-shot players with the rifle.
CoD BO7 has some strong weapons already and one surprise contender for the best weapon in the game is the Warden 308. This revolver-based marksman rifle is capable of dealing one-shot kills to the upper body and head, so pairing it with a low magnification scope can turn the weapon into a one-shot kill monster that allows you to go on crazy kill streaks and obtain chain kills with very little effort. After playing around with the weapon for a bit, we have put together the definitive best CoD BO7 Warden 308 loadout and the class setup to run with it. CoD BO7 Warden 308 best loadout The best loadout for the Warden 308 in CoD BO7 is: Optic: Millimeter Scanner or Greaves Ultra Zoom Muzzle: Outlaw Silencer Barrel: 15.4 LTI Phalanx Barrel Stock: FTAC Hybrid Stock Fire Mods: MFS Snap Trigger For starters, you will want to alter the default iron sights and if you want something that adopts a more run-and-gun playstyle then the Millimeter Scanner is an underrated and excellent optic. This returns from Black Ops 2 and allows you to briefly see the shadows of enemies through walls periodically, which is a handy benefit. But, even ignoring it, the overall zoom, frame, and reticle is clean, easy to keep track of in a fight, and perfect for both long range and close range firefights. Alternatively, the Greaves Ultra Zoom is a good option if you are looking for the weapon to fill a traditional "sniper rifle" playstyle. The Outlaw Silencer is a great second attachment, keeping you off the radar, while the 16.2" Artmeis-D1 Barrel will boost your damage range and bullet velocity, offsetting the negative effect of the Warden 308's prestige attachment the MFS Snap Trigger. This boost your fire rate, making you even more deadly. Finally, the FTAC Hybrid Stock helps to boost your mobility while walking and aiming and allowing you to remain competitive when you aren't locking down choke points. CoD BO7 Warden 308 best class setup Elsewhere in the class setup, you want to run: Secondary: Velox 5.7 Lethal: Semtex Tactical: Stim Shot Field Upgrade: Mute Field Perk 1: Ninja Perk 2: Fast Hands Perk 3: Flak Jacket Wildcard: Perk Greed - Ghost The Velox 5.7 serves as a great back-up thanks to its rate of fire, if you get in a tight firefight. Pair that with your perk 2 choice of Fast Hands and you can reload the Warden slightly faster (as its reload is a tad too slow) and switch to the Velox quickly. In the perk 1 slot, you want to run Ninja and take Ghost with the Perk Greed wildcard to stay off of the radar and stay hidden easily. This works together with the Mute Field Field Upgrade which will keep your footsteps silent for a brief period. Elsewhere, choose the Flak Jacket perk in perk 3 as explosions are pretty common in CoD BO7 and they can just be a real pain to deal with. Finally, in the tactical slot run and Stim and a Semtex in the lethal slot. Check out more of our Gaming coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.

CoD BO7 Astra Malorum release window, teasers, rumours, more
CoD BO7 has already begun teasing information about the Season 1 Zombies map, which is called Astra Malorum. This map is a huge change from what we see with Ashes of the Damned, as it's set to take place off Earth and is likely to feature some strong references and callbacks to the Zombies storyline while Treyarch begins tying things together. Here is a full breakdown of what we know about the new map, teasers from Treyarch, and what to expect. CoD BO7 Astra Malorum release window Astra Malorum will release for CoD BO7 during Season 1, likely at the start of the Season on 4th December 2025. This is what we saw with Black Ops 6's DLC modes and the map will be completely free for everyone to play. The map has already been revealed and was being teased by Treyarch just days after the game's release. This reveal confirms the rumours and leaks from The Ghost of Hope, a well-known Call of Duty leaker, who said this map is set on a space observatory on a skull. This intro cinematic is pretty insane with the crew being fired out of the Entity's mouth from the easter egg of Ashes of the Damned inside Tessie. With rocket propelled thrusters, Tessie barrels towards the space observatory and lands on the skull rock with the observatory, setting us up for the start of the map, which will begin outside the observatory, before we move inside. This map seems to be pulling together a lot of the lore and details from across the different games and storylines to hopfully deliver a satisfying conclusion to the story. View oEmbed on the source website CoD BO7 Astra Malorum Teasers Before the trailer, Treyarch had already begun teasing Astra Malorum with posters of various artefacts from the Zombies timeline. They seem to be on display at the Thurston Planetarium Exhibition on the space station. These include the first teaser which references Josiah Shem who was a key figure in CoD Black Ops 6's Zombies storyline. View oEmbed on the source website Following that, the next teaser references a relic fragment, which doesn't appear to have any known reference to an existing storyline or set of characters, so we could have a mixture of items seen before in Zombies or tied to previous stories and new ones. View oEmbed on the source website This next teaser could suggest the return of Element 115 to the storyline, given its a mineral deposit. The element hasn't been seen for years in the modern Zombies storyline and the intro cinematic seems to confirm its return. View oEmbed on the source website These teasers will keep coming and we plan to keep this article up to date with the latest information as and when Treyarch reveals it. We should get a full gameplay trailer before December arrives with more teasers from Treyarch likely to come in the next few days.

CoD BO7 meta, best guns to use in multiplayer
The best and strongest guns to use in multiplayer right now.
CoD BO7 has one of the best selection of guns in a long time, with some excellent weapons to use across the categories. On top of that, there are some great Field Upgrades and grenades that can give you the edge in multiplayer matches whether you are playing in the skill-based playlists or with open matchmaking. Here is a breakdown of the current meta dominating the multiplayer in CoD BO7, and some strong loadout combinations to use: CoD BO7 meta The current BO7 meta consists of: Best guns: M15 Mod 0, Dravec 45, Warden 308, X9 Maverick Best equipment and field upgrades: Psych Grenade, Stim, Mute Field, Drone Pod, These guns are the best in their categories for a variety of reasons. The M15 Mod 0 is the first assault rifle you unlock and it remains the strongest. It is consistent, with good stats and a great damage profile that makes it one of the most predictable guns in the game. Another consistent weapon is the Dravec 45. This SMG acts more like an AR-SMG hybrid with its low recoil, high magazine size, and mobility. It's an incredibly easy weapon to pick up and get used to and once you outfit it with attachments that boost its damage profile, you can easily outshoot several Assault rifles at medium-long distances. If you are looking for something with a faster fire rate then the Ryden 45K is a good backup. On the other hand, for weapons that can provide decent long rang damage, the X9 Maverick is a great pick. This is a burst assault rifle that can kill in just one burst if all your shots hit, making it incredibly deadly when you are holding down choke points, watching angles, or locking down corridors. Finally, the Warden 308 is a monster. This marksman rifle is capable of one-shot kills to the upper body and head, meaning if you are precise with your shots you can kill someone almost instantly. The weapon has already become infamous with players using it to go on crazy killstreaks. So, it is worth adopting a slower playstyle to make the most of the Warden 308. When it comes to equipment and field upgrades, the Psych Grenade and Stim rule the lethal and tactical slots with the former being a pretty strong disorientation grenade that players haven't adjusted to properly yet. For your field upgrade, we suggest using the Mute Field which acts as a mobile Dead Silence, making your footsteps silent for a period of time. Alternatively, while incredibly annoying to deal with, the Drone Pod is obscenely strong right now. These drones can divert players attentions away as they try to destroy them and they are so small that they might not even be able to, allowing it to explode and kill them, or for you to get the upper hand.

CoD Warzone Blackout release window, gameplay changes, more
The return of the original battle royale experience
CoD Warzone is entering its sixth year of content following its release in early 2020. Treyarch is now looking to bring the battle royale back to its origins with the return of Blackout, the original battle royale experience which released with CoD Black Ops 4. Unlike Warzone, this was a part of the main Call of Duty game that year and had a lot of differences to modern battle royale games. But, with Treyarch bringing it back, how will it go over and will there be any major changes? Here is what we know. CoD Warzone Blackout release window CoD Warzone will get the Blackout-style experience in Spring 2026. This will likely be during Season 3, which should begin sometime in March or April. One thing to note is that Blackout is in reference to the gameplay style and not the original map. That isn't coming back. Instead this gameplay experience will take place on the new map, Avalon, which is in the regular battle royale and the co-op campaign endgame in Black Ops 7. Therefore, fundamentally this will be a gameplay experience shift, rather than a new map to play on. What made Blackout different? Blackout was a distinctly different battle royale experience to Warzone. It focused far more on looting and finding items, instead of the depth and customisation we see in Warzone today. You were only given a default pistol to use, and then had to find attachments, weapons, equipment and perks as you played in the map. This made the experience much more challenging than Warzone as you had to keep track of more items and constantly search for upgrades. You weren't just jumping in with a loadout and sticking with it for the match. It also discouraged camping because your power came directly from the loot and items you found in the world and not your loadout. Therefore, Blackout will likely be a mode that spawns you in with just a pistol and reconfigures ground loot to be more impactful with you finding attachments, individual perks, and powerful weapons in high-traffic areas. If you want an overview of what made Blackout different, check out this breakdown and review of Blackout and Warzone from Drift0r: View oEmbed on the source website We will keep this article updated with more details as and when it gets revealed.
