Black Friday is nearly here. November 23 is just days away, and that means many retailers have already kicked off their major season of discounts and deals. Game’s Black Friday UK sale starts in earnest on November 15, but the chain has a number of deals live on its website already.

Some of the biggest deals available right now pertain to consoles: you can get a PS4 Slim, Red Dead Redemption 2, two months of Now TV, and either Doom or The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind for £250. You can get The Last of Us: Remastered or Overwatch thrown in for just £15 or £20 more, respectively.

On the green side of the gaming fence, you can get a 1 TB Xbox One S with Forza Horizon 4, two months of Now TV, and either The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind or Prey for £250. If you’re not a Forza fan, you can get the same bundle but with Playground’s racer subbed out for a Fortnite full game download, 2,000 V-bucks, and the Eon cosmetic set for the same price.

The cheapest Nintendo Switch bundle contains the device itself with Sports Party for £290; pay £10 more and the sports title gets swapped for Lego DC Super Villains. The Switch is a newer console, so it’s perhaps unsurprising deals are a little hard to come by compared to PS4 and Xbox One. The cheapest way to get a new Switch from Game is still to simply buy the console itself–this comes in at £280.

Check out a wider selection of Game’s Black Friday UK deals below, or visit the retailer’s website for the full list.

If you can feel your apocalyptic anticipation growing, it might be because Fallout 76 is gearing up for launch on PS4, Xbox One, and PC on November 14. If you’re a PS4 owner, you can grab a handful of free Fallout 76 items right now, whether you’ve pre-ordered the game or not. The items are only free between now and November 14, so time’s running out.

You can pick up your freebies right here. These include three Fallout 76 avatars, as well as a theme for your PS4. One avatar is a Nuka Cola cap, while the other two feature the smiling Vault Boy. He’s winking and giving a thumbs-up in one, and holding a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher in the other.

The theme decks out your PS4’s dashboard with Fallout 76 imagery. The background shows a close-up of a power armor helmet resting in the dirt of a dusty, post-apocalyptic world. In the background are a man and a woman wearing vault suits and holding weapons. The PS4 system icons are also changed to a fittingly dingy yellow style.

While you’re on the page to claim your freebies, you can also enter to win a copy of Fallout 76 Power Armor Edition–though you’ll have to do it between now and November 13. This special edition comes with the game, a steelcase, canvas duffel bag, wearable power armor helmet, glow-in-the-dark world map, and a collection of 24 Fallout figurines, plus additional digital items.

Fallout 76’s beta recently ended, with Bethesda promising a few tweaks and bug-fixes based on player feedback. Until our final Fallout 76 review goes live, you can read some of impressions of the beta and see what bonuses you might be eligible for if you pre-order before November 14.

It is less than a week before WWE’s big fall event, Survivor Series. The PPV has the rosters of Raw and Smackdown fight each other to determine which is the dominant brand, and the vast majority of the matches will revolve around this theme.

We’ll see champions fighting champions with Brock Lesnar taking on AJ Styles and Ronda Rousey battling Becky Lynch. As of this writing, there will be no titles on the line as Survivor Series is all about brand supremacy. Is Raw or Smackdown the better show? Well, Smackdown is, no matter who wins.

This event is coming to the WWE Network and PPV on Sunday, November 18. The Staples Center in Los Angeles, California will host Survivor Series, which starts at 7 PM ET / 4 PM PT, and while a pre-show hasn’t been announced yet, we’re assuming a two-hour long Kickoff Show will open up the PPV.

The card is slowly coming together, and with the card come rumors from industry insiders, fan theories, and dream concepts that will never come to fruition. We scoured the internet for all the most plausible rumors that have people talking and found that there’s nothing too shocking planned for Survivor Series yet.

Below are the latest rumors for Survivor Series. We’ll keep you updated if anything changes or these get confirmed prior to the PPV.

Possible Tag Team Match

Newly crowned Raw Tag Team Champions, AOP, will more than likely take on Smackdown’s Tag Team Champions, The Bar. The match hasn’t been announced yet, but considering all the other champions are booked in Survivor Series matches, this seems like a no brainer. However, it may be relegated to the Kickoff Show.

UPDATE: The match was added.

Full Men’s Survivor Series Teams

According to PW Insider, the Raw vs. Smackdown Men’s match will contain Kurt Angle, Braun Strowman, Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntyre, and Dolph Ziggler on Raw’s team and Daniel Bryan, Samoa Joe, Rey Mysterio, The Miz, and Randy Orton on Smackdown’s team. Shane McMahon and Baron Corbin will work in opposite corners as managers for the event.

Shane Heel Turn

Shane McMahon will be using his Crown Jewel World Cup win as part of a heel turn, using the “Best in the World” monicker. This is all part of a long-time plan on Smackdown, according to Wrestling Observer.

Luke Harper Injured

The Bludgeon Brother is seen wearing a cast in a photo from comedian Brad Williams. That may explain why he hasn’t been on TV recently.

Why Strowman Isn’t The Champ

Most WWE fans were baffled at Brock Lesnar beating Braun Strowman at Crown Jewel. However, it may be because the Monster Among Men has a bunch of heat backstage. According to Wrestling Inc, Strowman doesn’t show up to work on time and has a bit of a reputation for leaving these same shows early. Additionally, he’s working with some knee injuries as well, which is why he looks a little awkward running around.

Why Bliss Won’t Be Wrestling At The PPV

You’ve probably noticed Alexa Bliss will not be competing at Survivor Series, as she’s now just the captain of the Raw women’s team. The reason why is because she may have had multiple concussions in a short period of time, with her last match being back on October 19, via Wrestling News. She’s not 100% out, but her actually fighting at the show is extremely unlikely.

Cross-Brand Attack!

Much like last year’s Survivor Series, there is a good change we could see members of Smackdown or Raw appear on the opposite shows this week, to help build some story for the Raw vs. Smackdown Survivor Series matches.

Make sure to come back to GameSpot on Sunday, November 18 for live coverage and a review of the event.

Sony has outlined its PlayStation 4 deals coming to retail stores and the digital marketplace this month. The discounts will be good from November 18-26 in the USA, or November 22-30 in Canada. Those include discounts on system bundles, accessories like controllers and PlayStation VR, and a subscription to PlayStation Plus.

You can pick up a Spider-Man PS4 bundle for $200 US / $260 CAN, which nets you a 1TB standard PS4 system with a copy of the game from Insomniac. You can also pick up extra controllers for $40 US / $50 CAN, including some of the color variants like Blue Camouflage and Magma Red. The PlayStation VR has also been marked down to $200 / $250 CAN.

The announcement also teased a deal on a PlayStation Plus 12-month subscription, along with discounts on various games through the digital PlayStation Store from November 16-27. While it didn’t mention specific prices, it did tease a discounted price on Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 coming to Plus subscribers starting today.

Black Friday is a good time to pick up some deals on games across a lot of platforms and retailers, and some sales have already started. You can check out all of those and a lot more in our growing collection of Black Friday roundups.

November is jam-packed with games, and this episode of New Releases is the most stacked one yet. There are big-name sequels like Hitman 2, reimagined classics like Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee, and a different approach to a beloved series with Fallout 76. Fans of retro platformers can fly again with Spyro Reignited Trilogy, while old-school PC players can see sink into Underworld Ascendant.

Hitman 2 — November 13

Available on: PS4, Xbox One, PC

Unlike 2016’s reboot, this sequel isn’t episodic. Instead, you’ll be able to carry out assassinations in both Miami and an American suburb, Colombia, New Zealand, Mumbai, and the Isle of Sgail right from the start. Hitman 2 also pits you against a fellow killer in the new competitive Ghost Mode.

Spyro Reignited Trilogy — November 13

Available on: PS4, Xbox One

The purple dragon is getting his own remaster, a la 2017’s Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. The three games here are Spyro the Dragon, Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage, and Spyro: Year of the Dragon, all with totally remastered graphics. Stewart Copeland, drummer for The Police and composer of the original soundtrack, also returned to create a new main theme for the collection.

Fallout 76 — November 14

Available on: PS4, Xbox One, PC

Fallout 76 takes the series’ trademark RPG gameplay to new places–and not just because it’s set in an irradiated West Virginia. This game trades NPCs and Raiders for a totally online experience: band together, build a base, raid other player camps, complete side quests, and even launch nukes. Expect plenty of weird quests and mutated monsters too.

Underworld Ascendant — November 15

Available on: PC

When the minds behind Ultima Underworld, System Shock, and Thief come together for a hardcore RPG, people pay attention. This successful Kickstarter game drops you into the Stygian Abyss, where you can explore, solve puzzles, and interact with factions in any way you see fit. But beware: your choices always have consequences.

Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu! / Let’s Go Eevee! — November 16

Available on: Switch

This pair of Pokemon games is a reimagining of the classic Pokemon Yellow, and they seem perfect for first-time trainers. You won’t battle Pokemon in the wild; instead, you’ll catch them Pokemon Go-style to earn experience. You can also play the entire game with drop-in/drop-out co-op, in which the second player will control an extra Pokemon during standard battles.

This may be a loaded week, but November isn’t over yet. Next Sunday, New Releases will check out the much-anticipated Battlefield V, plus the latest in a long-running series with Farming Simulator 19.
