Key Takeaways

📺 Marvel's Midnight Suns is available free for Prime Gaming members

Marvel's Midnight Suns is available free for Prime Gaming members until October 6, 2025, thanks to a limited-time promotion. As reported by Videogames Chronicle, anyone with an active Prime Gaming subscription can redeem the game on the Epic Games Store at no additional cost. This turn-based tactical RPG from the creators of XCOM blends strategic combat with a deep, narrative-driven campaign featuring fan-favorite heroes like Iron Man, Wolverine, and Captain America alongside the dark sorcery of the titular Midnight Suns.


To download Marvel's Midnight Suns, open your Epic Games Launcher on PC, navigate to the Store tab, and find the Prime Gaming offer banner. Click Get to redeem the title, then head to your Library and select Install. For a cinematic taste, you can watch the announcement trailer on YouTube to see combat mechanics and character interactions in action. Whether you've played before or are planning your first incursion into the Council's battle against Lilith, this free window is your chance to assemble your dream team of heroes.

📺 The Last of Us Part 2 is now playable in chronological order

The Last of Us Part 2 is now playable in chronological order, unveiling a fresh way to experience Ellie and Abby's intertwined journeys. In a surprise update, Naughty Dog introduced the Chronological Experience mode, which restructures the story so that events unfold linearly rather than in the original, dual-protagonist intercut format. According to IGN's coverage, this mode is ideal for veterans looking to revisit the game with a new perspective, though newcomers are advised to complete the standard campaign first to preserve narrative impact.


To enable the Chronological Experience, launch The Last of Us Part 2 on your PlayStation console, open the Options menu, and select Game Modes. Toggle on Chronological Experience to rearrange cutscenes and missions in strict sequence. Alongside this mode, Naughty Dog has also rolled out a slew of new skins—ranging from classic black-and-white filters to collectible character outfits—that can be accessed via the Extras tab. Whether you prefer the grittier survival intensity of Part 1 or the emotional depth of Part 2, this update offers both a fresh lens and fresh aesthetics to one of PlayStation's most lauded exclusives.

📺 Ghost of Yotei State of Play is scheduled for July 10, 2025

Ghost of Yotei State of Play is scheduled for July 10, 2025, at 2 p.m. PT / 10 p.m. BST, promising a focused, 20-minute gameplay deep dive. Announced via a PlayStation tweet, this dedicated broadcast will spotlight the latest in visual fidelity, combat refinements, and the story of Jin Sakai's journey through the snow-capped peaks of Mount Yotei. Fans of samurai action and open-world exploration won't want to miss developer insights into live combat demonstrations and new environmental hazards.


To watch the Ghost of Yotei State of Play, head to the official PlayStation YouTube channel or tune in on Twitch at the appointed time. If you haven't yet caught the official release date trailer, it sets the tone with haunting vistas and dynamic swordplay, teasing new mechanics like stealth assassinations and weather-driven challenges. Whether you're a die-hard Ghost of Tsushima veteran or new to Samurai Ōkami, this presentation promises a front-row seat to the next chapter in one of Sony's premier franchises.
