Starting tomorrow, November 30th, online services for EA Sports FC Empires will be discontinued. This mobile strategy game, a spin-off of EA’s popular soccer series, let players build and manage their own soccer team and organization. Although it launched in limited areas at the end of 2024 with early access and continued with several seasons of new content, EA has decided to cancel the game instead of releasing a full version and expanding to more regions. This means you won’t be able to play the game after about 24 hours.

The recent Xbox Partner Showcase revealed some exciting news, including a new game in the Vampire Survivors series and the announcement that Dave the Diver would be released on Xbox. In fact, Dave the Diver became available to play on Xbox the same day it was announced! However, it seems Xbox players weren’t immediately rushing to buy the game. The announcement did have one other surprising consequence, though.

Though writer Ronald D. Matalas completed a 30-page script for a potential Legacy series, Paramount+ currently has no plans to move forward with the project as of November 2025. Actor Todd Stashwick has expressed interest in reprising his role, and several other Star Trek cast members have also mentioned the possibility in the past.

Netflix has a wide variety of content, and a new true crime movie is quickly becoming popular. Currently, it’s number four on the Top 10 Movies list, just ahead of the hit show KPop Demon Hunters, which has been losing momentum after being popular for months. The Carman Family Deaths isn’t just a temporary trend, though – it’s a gripping story with plenty of unexpected twists.

This December, Pluto TV is adding a 24/7 James Bond channel, completing the franchise’s collection on the service. They’re also bringing on popular movies like Ocean’s Eleven, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, No Country for Old Men, and Django Unchained.

Noah Schnapp recently told Deadline that exploring the connection between Will and Vecna reminded him of the relationship between Harry Potter and Voldemort. He even re-watched the Harry Potter movies for inspiration. The parallels between the two pairs became clear in the fourth episode of Stranger Things season 5, “Sorcerer,” and could foreshadow difficult times for Will.

If you’re an HBO Max subscriber and want to watch the animated horror comedy Igor, you only have until tomorrow, November 30th, to do so. The film, a fresh take on the Frankenstein story, is leaving the streaming service. Igor—MGM’s first fully computer-animated movie in over a decade—follows the story of Igor, who decides to become a mad scientist himself and enter the Evil Science Fair. However, his attempt to create the ultimate evil monster is complicated when his creation turns out to be surprisingly kind.

This blueprint lets you create a Salvaging Station, perfect for sorting through recovered items right on your boat! It’s a great way to save time when you’re out exploring.
