Step aside Luigi, 2025 is now officially the Year of Eevee. That’s the rather bold claim made today on the official Pokémon Center website. What does it mean? Well, the TCG is about to launch a new special set of cards called Prismatic Evolutions, all themed around the lil’ brown pup and its octet of evolved forms, with new products released throughout the whole year, and there’s a bunch of new Eevee merch on the store, but could it also be…? – John Walker Read More

Marvel Rivals is entering its second season, confusingly named Season 1 because the first one was Season 0, and it’s bringing four new heroes to the game all at once.

When I walked into a Build-a-Bear Workshop last month and they were completely sold out of their Shadow the Hedgehog bears to stuff and dress to your liking, I don’t think I expected it to be a harbinger for a plague of scalpers taking advantage of the Sonic the Hedgehog community.

Marvel Rivals features three types of heroes: Vanguards, Duelists, and Strategists. Arguably, the Vanguard can change the tide of battle the most. Traditionally known as tanks, the role of these heroes is to soak up damage to let the rest of their team invade the objective and make their way in. – Parker Johnson Read More
