StarCraft II is reverting its deeply unpopular in-game economy changes in latest PTR build by Chris Neal

StarCraft II doesn’t really often make headlines around here, which is fine because sometimes a game just truckin’ along is good enough for us. However, there was a tinderbox of player anger that got lit up with the patch that landed in June, which made several tweaks to some of the costs and amounts of early […]

Halloween’s First DLC Reveals Even The Bad Sequels Will Get Some Love by Mark Delaney
Monday October 5th, 2026 at 5:39 PM

GameSpot - All Content
1 Share

Halloween's first paid DLC is coming on October 27 in the form of a new skin for the game's killer, Michael Myers, and it's pulling from a source you might not expect: Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers. A free update on the same day will also add a fifth map, The Tower Farm, inspired by a location in the same film. 

It may seem odd to jump to the fifth movie for the game's first DLC, but it's not the only piece of new content coming that day. There's also a second skin coming for Big Mike, borrowing from his look in the legacy sequel Halloween (2018). Each skin will run you $10.

Survivor mains also have new things to look forward to, including two new characters, Michelle and Eugene, as well as Civilian Costumes Pack 1, which includes 14 outfits--one for each survivor character--and 42 colorings, or "tints." The new survivors will also go for $10, though that's for the pair, not for each of them, while the new styles and colors will be--you guessed it--$10 for the set. This content drop is the first of several coming to the game in its first year, development studio Illfonic said. 

With 13 movies in the series, there's still plenty of ground to cover for Halloween, which makes kicking off its post-launch roadmap with Halloween 5 such an interesting choice. The appropriately autumnal farm map is more open than the game's earlier maps, making it harder to break line of sight from Haddonfield's boogeyman. I suppose that moody setting was too picturesque to pass up as an update just days before October 31. 

Just days before Halloween, Halloween will look more like, uh, Halloween.

As much as I love the 1978 original, I'm not particularly fond of most of the Halloween sequels, though Halloween H20 is probably dearest to me; I fondly recall seeing it on the big screen as a horror-obsessed nine-year-old, so I look forward to seeing that one reflected in the game down the line.

In any event, I don't think the sequels' quality ought to keep the development team from bringing them into the game like this. Illfonic's game should be a museum to all things Halloween, and watching it become that over the next few years is an exciting prospect. I hope the licensing deal extends to the series' more oddball entries, like Rob Zombie's reboot duology and Halloween 3--the one movie in the series that doesn't involve Michael Myers. If the game follows the roadmap I've built in my mind, we'll see every version of The Shape on the character select screen one day.

In GameSpot's Halloween review, I wrote that it gives players "a vibes-heavy experience befitting the timeless film, while also offering a unique hook that keeps the game from feeling like a rehash of the many horror multiplayer games that came before it."

Fallout season 3 could premiere in "May or June" of next year, says star Kyle MacLachlan by Lauren Milici

Fallout season 3 is slated to hit Prime Video next spring or summer, says star Kyle MacLachlan.

"We're still shooting away," MacLachlan told a fan during a signing for his new memoir. "We've got about a month or so to go... and then probably come out maybe May or June."

The third (and hopefully not final) season of the hit Prime Video show started filming in May 2026, five or so months after season 2's December-January run. There hasn't been much news in the meantime, aside from Aaron Paul (who spoke out several times about his desire to appear on the show) being added to the cast. Paul joins the newly promoted Annabel O’Hagan and Dave Register, who play Vault dwellers Steph and Chet, respectively.

We weren't sure of Hank's fate after the season 2 finale, so we're glad MacLachlan confirmed that he will indeed be back. In what capacity...we're not sure. Now that his mind has essentially been erased, his character could go in any direction. We do think, however, that we'll see a lot more flashbacks from before the bombs dropped (especially now that we know how his character is connected to Steph).

The new season also partially takes place in Colorado, which is a location that has not yet been visited in the games. I'm ready to see some mutated moose.

Fallout season 2 is streaming now on Prime Video. For more on what to watch, check out our list of all of the new TV shows still to come in 2026 and beyond.

There are no shortage of rogue servers and emulators for the long-sunsetted Star Wars Galaxies, but what’s another one to add to the list? Especially since this one is relatively new by comparison? We’ve been informed of the existence of The Outer Rim, a pre-CU SWG server that chiefly hangs its hat on adding new custom content, creatures, […]
