It’s no secret that pre-orders often include various incentives, which usually come in the form of digital items and in-game content. That said, most of the latest video game deals, offer great prices but nothing more. There are some great general gaming deals though, that may or may not toss in a little extra, including PC mice, console bundles, games, and beyond.

We’d like to highlight something a little more, special, however. Right now, up until October 6, you can pre-order Far Cry 6 to receive a free gift. This is no in-game item or flashy weapon skin. It’s a double-sided 24-inch by 14.5-inch cloth banner, adorned with the Discover Yara billboard from the Ministerio de Turismo. It’s themed after the latest game in the series and it looks sick!

Far Cry 6 is the latest game in the first-person survival series, and this installment will take you to Yara, including jungles, beaches, and Esperanza — the island’s capital city. You’ll step into the shoes of Dani Rojas, joining a revolution as a guerilla fighter to liberate the nation and thwart the big bad. Forget the biting political commentary and bring on the slapstick action! The gameplay also looks great!

If you pre-order the game, before release on October 6, you’ll receive digital content including a “deadly” Discos Locos weapon and an outfit for Chorizo, your furry companion. But Walmart is also offering the premium cloth banner, which you can proudly display on your wall or toss into a shadow box — if you can find one large enough! Just choose the pre-order edition before checking out! Here’s what that banner looks like:

You can pre-order Far Cry 6 through Walmart up until release for $60 with free shipping on all systems. The Steelbook Edition is also available for $110, which includes the full game, season pass, and an exclusive steel book cover. If you order the PS4 version, you’ll also get a free upgrade for PS5, and the Xbox One edition comes with a free upgrade to Xbox Series X|S!

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.
