Despite ending in 2018, the anime hasn’t been renewed for another season. However, before it finished, *Dragon Ball Super* introduced one of its most memorable moments: the Ultra Instinct transformation. Episodes 109 and 110, which aired as a special one-hour event on October 8, 2017, were so popular they overloaded streaming services like Crunchyroll with viewers. The episodes remain a legendary highlight in the Shonen genre, and fans continue to share clips online to celebrate it.

The finale of *Peacemaker* Season 2 dramatically shifts things, introducing an idea that could have huge implications for both the heroes and villains of the series. Although James Gunn isn’t revealing many details, a clear direction for the future has emerged, and it might even allow the DC Universe to confirm a popular fan theory.

I was checking out the job listings for Xbox Game Studios, and it looks like they’re really continuing the Age of Empires tradition! They’re looking for engineers who are seriously skilled in Unreal Engine. Basically, they want people who *really* know their way around things like Blueprints, the Gameplay Ability System, StateTree, and Mass Entity – and have actually shipped games made with Unreal to different platforms before. Sounds like a challenging but awesome opportunity for any Unreal pro!

The Marvel Universe is full of dangerous villain groups, but only a handful have truly come close to defeating its heroes and destroying everything.

This week, PlayStation added a new feature to its store: users can now write detailed reviews of games, not just give them a 5-star rating. These reviews can be up to 4,000 characters long, and you can even specify which version of the game you’re reviewing – for example, if you want to share your thoughts specifically on the Digital Deluxe Edition of *MLB The Show 25*.

This month’s most anticipated horror game releases include *Tormented Souls 2*, *Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2*, *Little Nightmares 3*, and *Bye Sweet Carole*. While *Tormented Souls 2* and *Bloodlines 2* are still upcoming, *Bye Sweet Carole* and *Little Nightmares 3* are available now. *Little Nightmares 3* is confirmed to work well on the Steam Deck, and although it’s the biggest release of these four titles, it might not necessarily be the best.

With excitement building around director Zach Cregger’s new film, Weapons, horror fans can now stream his breakout movie, Barbarian, on Hulu. Barbarian, which earned critical acclaim (92% on Rotten Tomatoes) and made ten times its production cost back, began streaming on October 1st. Considered both one of the most surprising and best horror films in recent years, it’s a dark and twisted story about a rental home with a terrifying secret. The film is unsettling, suspenseful, and even has moments of dark humor, making it a great choice for watching during the Halloween season.

Anneke Wills is returning to the role of Polly Wright, the resourceful and intelligent companion of the First and Second Doctors, in a new audio drama. She’ll be featured in *Doctor Who – The First Doctor Adventures: Beware the City of Illusions*, a production from Big Finish releasing in March 2026.

Marvel executive Brad Winderbaum recently confirmed to *Entertainment Weekly* that Elden Henson will return as Foggy Nelson in Season 2 of *Daredevil: Born Again*. While acknowledging some confusion about what details can be publicly shared, Winderbaum stated, “He is in Season 2.” He explained that cast and crew often navigate a delicate balance between staying tight-lipped and being truthful about their involvement in the show.

The conclusion of *Tron: Ares*, including the scene after the credits, sets up the next part of the story and future movies. This involves a surprising twist for a key character and a highly anticipated, though brief, appearance from another.
