With the success of Buy Now , fans have been eager for more. Two pieces of downloadable content, End of Zoe and Not a Hero, are the third and fourth sets of DLC for the horror title, and both were recently given a release date.

End of Zoe features the mysterious Joe, and outdoorsman who lives along the bank of the marshes. After a chance encounter with Zoe, both their lives become intertwined.

In Not a Hero, Chris Redfield makes his return to the Resident Evil franchise. As the veteran Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance soldier, players are on the hunt for Lucas Baker after the horrific events of Resident Evil 7. BSAA agents have tried to bring an end to Baker before, but were unsuccessful and became his captives. The players control Redfield on his journey through poisonous dungeons to save the team and take down Baker once and for all.

Releasing alongside the remaining DLC, Capcom has announced the Resident Evil 7 Biohazard Gold Edition for both retail and digital purchase. Like other re-releases, Gold Edition includes all the extra content from Resident Evil 7 in one big package. These extra pieces of DLC include Banned Footage Vol. 1, Banned Footage Vol. 2, as well as the upcoming End of Zoe.

Both Resident Evil 7 Biohazard Gold Edition and the two remaining pieces of DLC release just in time for the holidays on December 12. For season pass owners, End of Zoe will be available as an update on that day. Those without the season pass can also purchase the extra content as a separate download for $15.

On the same day, everyone with a copy of Resident Evil 7 will have access to the free Not a Hero DLC.

When Resident Evil 7 released, it wasn’t just a landmark for the series by going back to its roots. It evolved with more modern gameplay to create something much more refined than the bloated Resident Evil 6. Another big step for the series is that nearly all the content for PlayStation 4 is available on PlayStation VR. This includes the upcoming DLC End of Zoe and Not a Hero. For those who can stomach it, the experience is worth the try.

It’s turning into a pretty good time to be a Monster Hunter fan who plays on a phone. Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Outlanders will launch on Android and iOS on October 29, giving the series a new mobile-first game just as Monster Hunter Rise is also preparing to make the jump to smartphones through Netflix.

Outlanders is being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studio Group under license and supervision from Capcom. Unlike Rise, which appears to be the full console and PC game adapted for mobile, Outlanders is a free-to-play survival hunting game made specifically for phones.

Phantom Blade Zero makes me think Sony might have a point about going all digital
Physical games still matter, but when the disc isn't a complete copy of the game, the argument for keeping it becomes harder to make.

I'm a big supporter of physical games. There's something satisfying about owning a disc, lending it to a friend, or grabbing a bargain without waiting for a digital storefront to approve the price. But Phantom Blade Zero has me questioning one of the biggest arguments in the physical-versus-digital debate. The game's digital version launches on October 29, 2026, while its physical PS5 editions, including Standard, Deluxe, and Ultimate versions, won't arrive until 2027.

And there's another wrinkle: the digital version reportedly needs up to 134GB of storage, raising questions about how much of the game can actually fit on a standard Blu-ray disc. A standard PS5 Ultra HD Blu-ray disc maxes out at 100GB, so Phantom Blade Zero may need to ship across multiple discs or require players to download additional data to finish installing it. Either way, the idea of popping in a disc and having the complete game ready to play gets a little murkier.

Nintendo Switch 2 jailbreak breakthrough shows what AI can do, but it’s not a one-click hack
The software-only exploit works on the latest firmware, but it's tethered and still has significant limitations.
Nintendo Switch 2

The Nintendo Switch 2 has reportedly been jailbroken, and AI helped crack the code. Developer Sammy Hajhamid, aka pepsipu, used OpenAI's Codex to help exploit the console, even modding Mario Kart World with the likes of Peter Griffin and Hatsune Miku. But before anyone celebrates an unlocked Nintendo playground, there's a catch: the exploit is tethered, not a full-blown custom firmware jailbreak.
