Wizards of the Coast, a subsidiary of Hasbro Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS), today announced WARLOCK: DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, an original third person single-player action-adventure game. WARLOCK is set in a dark fantasy open world inspired by DUNGEONS & DRAGONS. Developed by Invoke Studios, the game places players in the role of Kaatri, a veteran warrior who makes a pact to wield otherworldly magic against dark powers. The role of Kaatri features full performance capture by the award-winning Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica, Lucifer). WARLOCK is currently in development for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox.

WARLOCK empowers players to use magic to overcome a wide range of challenges. In exploration, every spell is a key unlocking new paths and possibilities in a beautiful yet unsettling world. When facing enemies, magic and melee combine for a combat experience that is both tactical and visceral.

“Working with our colleagues at Wizards of the Coast on a brand as rich as D&D has given the team the creative freedom and support to build a new ambitious open-world experience for players. We’re excited to finally announce WARLOCK and looking forward to sharing gameplay details in the future,” said Dominic Guay, General Manager of Invoke.

“Warlocks wield powerful, otherworldly magic, but it always comes at a cost.” said John Hight, President of Wizards of the Coast. “Invoke has crafted a world that captures the dangerous wonder at the heart of DUNGEONS & DRAGONS where players can push the limits of Kaatri’s magic and discover what lies beyond.”

Additional details, including the gameplay debut, will be revealed in summer 2026, with a planned launch in 2027. WARLOCK reinforces Wizards of the Coast’s commitment to worldbuilding and broadens their roster for upcoming AAA games, both original IP and based on established worlds.

Today, Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Zootopia 2” will cross the $1 billion mark at the global box office after only 17 days in release, having earned $986.1 million globally thus far ($232.7 million domestic and $753.4 million international). The hit film will be the second Motion Picture Association (MPA) $1 billion title of 2025 after Disney’s “Lilo & Stitch,” and will reach the global milestone in the shortest amount of time among all animated MPA releases and all PG-rated films.

This milestone also marks the first back-to-back billion-dollar releases for Walt Disney Animation Studios, following last year’s “Moana 2.” The studio now counts five billion-dollar titles since 2013: “Frozen,” “Frozen 2,” “Moana 2,” “Zootopia,” and “Zootopia 2.”

“Everyone at Disney Animation put their heart, soul and passion into this film to tell a story full of joy, imagination, and incredible thoughtfulness,” said Jared Bush, Chief Creative Officer, Walt Disney Animation Studios. “This milestone means the world to us, because more than anything, it means audiences are coming to theaters for a shared experience of watching this movie on the big screen, everyone together, from all walks of life around the world – and that is a Zootopia dream come true.”

With a Certified Hot audience score of 96% on Rotten Tomatoes and an A CinemaScore, “Zootopia 2” opened on November 26 to a record-breaking $559.5 million in five days, becoming the highest global animated opening of all time, the highest global debut of 2025, and the highest global opening for any animated film in Disney history. In addition, it stands as the No. 1 international MPA release of the year.

Amid its stellar international performance, “Zootopia 2” has broken a number of historic records in China. It is the country’s highest animated opening of all time for a non-local title – with a massive $272 million – and the highest-grossing non-local animated film of all time, which was achieved in only five days. Today, the film stands as the No. 2 MPA release of all time in the country, behind Marvel Studios’ “Avengers: Endgame,” with an estimated $447million to date. The Walt Disney Studios now also holds three of the top five highest-grossing MPA titles ever released in the Chinese market.

While “Zootopia 2” continues its phenomenal worldwide theatrical run, its box office success has also reignited interest in the franchise, driving record viewership of “Zootopia” and “Zootopia+” on Disney+, where they’ve been viewed for more than 725 million hours globally on the platform.

NO BRAINS. NO BRAKES. NO FILTER.

In the near future, an experimental attempt to harness the power of the Earth’s core ends in a terrifying disaster, turning soil to sludge and the living to undead monsters. Leon Dorsey, the genius behind the experiment, had a plan to make things right: hire a team of highly trained mercenaries to get the job done. Unfortunately, they were all too expensive. That’s why he hired THE TOXIC COMMANDOS.

Tag team as a squad of up to four players, featuring full crossplay support across PC and consoles. Send the Sludge God and its horde of things-that-should-never-be back to the underworld as you drive across semi-open maps and tear through the wasteland. Find how your squad clicks, shooting swarms of enemies together and smashing them under the wheels of your favorite ride for that pure rush of satisfaction. Unload an array of gunfire, grenades, special abilities, and even freaking katanas. When mutated monstrosities swarm from every angle, teamwork isn’t optional—it’s survival.

Pre-order the Standard or Blood Edition and Get Free DLC

John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando will come in two editions—the Standard Edition and the Blood Edition, both available for pre-order now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via the Epic Games Store and Steam.

Pre-orders of any edition grant the Leon’s Secret Stash DLC for free.

On top of the base game, the Blood Edition includes the Bloody Pass, featuring:

  • Two post-launch DLCs including unique skins for characters, weapons, and vehicles to make sure you’re the most fashionable crew of the apocalypse 
  • A golden Cosmetic Pack for weapons featuring a weapon charm and character skins

NO LAW Reveal Trailer

KRAFTON, Inc., the publisher of PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS, today revealed NO LAW, a first-person open-world shooter RPG set in the gritty cyber-noire city of Port Desire. The game is being developed by Neon Giant, the Swedish studio behind The Ascent, and made its world premiere during The Game Awards 2025. NO LAW is currently in development for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

In NO LAW, players step into the boots of Grey Harker, an ex-military veteran who left his war-torn past behind for a quiet life tending his plants until trouble finds him again. When his peace is violently shattered, Harker must rely on his black-ops instincts and custom hardware to take back what was stolen and confront the city that wronged him.

Set against the backdrop of Port Desire, a sprawling port carved into the cliffs of a restless sea, NO LAW invites players into a world built on neon sleaze instead of regulation. The city is a hub of import and excess, overflowing with colorful characters whose motives are as murky as the smog-filled skyline. From the rooftop gardens to the alleys below, every inch of Port Desire is alive, reactive, and waiting to be shaped by the player’s choices.

Every decision carries weight. Help a friend in need or silence an enemy permanently; take the tactical route through the shadows or unleash chaos in open combat. Even in a city of no laws, actions still have consequences. Each playthrough reveals new possibilities, allies, and outcomes, making NO LAW an immersive shooter defined as much by its story and morality as its firepower.

Powered by Unreal Engine 5, NO LAW blends visceral first-person combat with deep player agency. Whether you favor precision, stealth, or destruction, your approach defines the experience. Master advanced military upgrades, experiment with sci-fi tools and vertical movement, and turn every mission into a personal story of revenge, consequence, and survival.

“NO LAW represents the next step for us as a studio,” said Claës af Burén, Managing Director at Neon Giant. “With The Ascent, we built a strong foundation for how we approach worldbuilding, systems, and storytelling. This new project takes everything we’ve learned and applies it to a completely different kind of experience — one that’s bigger, more reactive, and more personal than anything we’ve done before.”

Following the success of The Ascent, NO LAW marks a new creative chapter for Neon Giant under KRAFTON’s growing portfolio of global studios. The game continues KRAFTON’s vision of supporting distinctive, high-quality experiences that push the boundaries of gameplay, technology, and worldbuilding.

Watch the official NO LAW – Reveal Trailer from The Game Awards 2025, captured entirely in-game, for a first look at the game. Be sure to Wishlist the game on Steam and follow NO LAW on social media for the latest updates and announcements: YouTube | Discord | TikTok | Instagram | X | Facebook.

Sci-fi Thriller Ontos Announced at The Game Awards 2025

Video games publisher and creative studio Kepler Interactive and Frictional Games, the independent developer known for SOMA, and the Penumbra and Amnesia series, have today revealed their newest project, ONTOS, a sci-fi mystery thriller coming to PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S next year. Featuring Golden Globe winner Stellan Skarsgård within its talented cast, ONTOS has been developed as a spiritual successor to the critically acclaimed SOMA by the talented Swedish development team, bringing their immersive gameplay systems and unrivalled storytelling and worldbuilding to the next level.

Watch the ONTOS Announcement trailer here:

In ONTOS, players will become Aditi Amani, a resourceful engineer, as she explores the repurposed moon hotel Samsara in search of the truth around her estranged father. Samsara is a vast labyrinth built atop the ruins of a failed mining colony, and players will explore this open, interconnected environment in their quest for the truth. Every corner of Samsara tells a story, and every story has something hiding beneath the surface, waiting to be found…

Players will scavenge for helpful items, manipulate intricate machinery and face intense tests of morality as they encounter horrific Experiments throughout Samsara. There is no ‘one solution’ to the obstacles players will encounter in ONTOS. Players will need to use their wits and ingenuity to reach the narrative’s mysterious conclusions and face the consequences of their choices.

“After more than 10 years of development it is incredibly exciting to finally announce ONTOS. This is easily our most ambitious project yet in terms of scope, production values and sheer thematic ambitions,” says Thomas Grip, creative director and co-founder of Frictional Games. “Where SOMA tackled consciousness, ONTOS aims to do the same thing with the very nature of reality. A lofty goal – yes – and a risky one too. I feel we have managed to create something that does just that though – a game that lets you actively engage with the mysteries of existence headfirst. I am personally dying to see how players react to it.”

Developed using their new, proprietary HPL4 engine, Frictional Game’s most thought-provoking work yet will release in collaboration with Kepler Interactive, the publisher behind a curated collection of culturally resonant, bold and timeless games including Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Rematch, Sifu, Pacific Drive and Ultros. “Kepler is always drawn to teams like Frictional Games that share our passion for creativity and art that feels alive. ONTOS is bold, unsettling and beautifully weird. It’s the kind of project that captures the magic of true auteurs and Hollywood talent coming together to explore the strange and tell a story that could only exist in video games,” says Alexis Garavaryan, CEO of Kepler Interactive.

ONTOS was previously teased back in September 2025 via an innovative and immersive ARG (Alternate Reality Game) made in collaboration with Kepler Interactive, ONTOS’ global publishing partner. Via a mysterious clue found in SOMA’s 10th anniversary update on PC, players could discover a series of social accounts, websites and strange messages that led them to uncover some early teases about ONTOS’ philosophical story themes and locations.

Players can wishlist ONTOS now on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S ahead of its release in 2026. For more information, visit: www.ontosgame.com.

Challenging these massive machines will test even the most battle-hardened pilots, but every fallen giant becomes a valuable resource. Tear away what remains useful, fuse their power with your own and give yourself a better chance to survive what awaits in the deeper reaches of the wasteland.
