This tournament has been full of unexpected surprises. The first round was a scavenger hunt where fighters collected powerful upgrades, and Superman even briefly gained the ability to use Darkseid’s devastating Omega Beams. He then faced Captain Atom in a one-on-one battle. Though Captain Atom had the upper hand for a while, Superman ultimately won by absorbing his opponent’s energy and using it against him. Superman has become incredibly powerful throughout the tournament, and the latest round is making him even more godlike.

After a 14-year hiatus, Jurassic World roared back onto the big screen in 2015, becoming both a box office hit and a critical success. Directed by Colin Trevorrow and starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, the film is a new chapter in the Jurassic Park story, taking place 22 years after the original on Isla Nublar. In this world, a dinosaur theme park called Jurassic World has been built. However, when a dangerous, genetically engineered dinosaur called the Indominus Rex breaks free, everything falls into chaos.

Recently, a game called New World: Aeternum was removed from sale on the PlayStation 5. This game, released in 2024 by Amazon Games, was an upgraded version of New World, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) that first came out in 2021. New World was initially a hit, but only on PC. It wasn’t available on consoles until Aeternum was released, and by that point, the game had largely lost its player base.
