How to get the Black Adam cosmetics

Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to earn the Black Adam cosmetics without spending money. So hopefully, you’ve got some leftover V-bucks from a previous battle pass. Otherwise, you’ll have to purchase V-bucks using real cash. Depending on which cosmetics you want, you might have to spend upwards of $20 to get what you want from the Item Shop. Be sure to visit the V-bucks tab to see all the options available to you.

Below are the four different Black Adam bundles and what they contain:

  • Black Adam — Outfit
  • Symbol of Shiruta — Back Bling
  • Teth’s Throne — Emote
  • Hawkman’s Mace — Harvesting Tool
  • Teth Ascended — Loading Screen

This is the main bundle that includes everything Black Adam-related, including his outfit and multiple variations.

It comes with two different outfits: One with Black Adam’s cloak, and one without. Each has a reactive option, as well, which allows his suit to light up. The Symbol of Shiruta Back Bling also has a reactive option. While this is the most expensive option, it does include everything you’ll need and is available at a 900 V-buck discount as a bundle.

This is the least expensive option for players just looking to get the skin itself. It comes with the same styles mentioned above, along with the reactive versions of each.

Hawkman’s Mace — 800 V-bucks

Likewise, the Teth Ascended Loading Screen is available to purchase standalone for 300 V-bucks.

All of these Black Adam cosmetics are available for a limited time, so be sure to grab them ASAP if you’re interested. It’s currently unclear how long the cosmetics will be available, but they’ll likely get pulled in a week or so. Typically, it takes a while for cosmetics to reappear in the Item Shop, and some don’t come back at all.

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.

Xbox Cloud Gaming gets a standalone pay-as-you-go option
The service starts at $3.99 for 10 hours, and unused playtime won’t expire until you use it up.
Xbox Cloud Gaming

Microsoft may already be putting pieces of its rumored Game Pass overhaul into place. A recent report claimed that Xbox CEO Asha Sharma is planning a major rethink of the subscription service that could let players pay separately for features such as cloud gaming, multiplayer, and console-only games. Xbox has now started testing a pay-as-you-go version of Cloud Gaming that does not require a Game Pass subscription.
