News - Monster Hunter Wilds Console Details Revealed, PS5 Pro Support Will Be In Day
Capcom has revealed the performance details for Monster Hunter Wilds on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. The director also confirmed that there will be a day-one patch to implement PS5 Pro support.
In a new pre-launch community update video, Capcom showed slides of what to expect performance-wise from Monster Hunter Wilds on console. PS5 and Xbox Series X share the same output resolutions but different rendering resolutions. When prioritizing graphics, the output resolution is 3840x2160 and the rendering resolution is 3072x1728. When prioritizing frame rate, the output resolution is 384x2160 but the rendering resolution is 1920x1080. Graphics mode aims for 30fps while frame rate mode aims for 60fps.
On Series S, there's only one mode and it targets a 1920x1080 resolution at 30fps. As for the PS5 Pro patch, Capcom didn't offer any other details but will do so closer to launch. The development team is also trying to lower the minimum GPU specs on PC, and is considering releasing a PC-benchmark tool to help players determine if their setup can handle the game.

News - Samsung 49-Inch OLED Gaming Monitor Is $900, Includes Free 2TB 990 Pro SSD
The Samsung 49-Inch Odyssey OLED G9 Monitor is one of the most premium options on the market, offering not just tons of real estate, but also an impressive refresh rate, response time, and overall design. It’s also one of the most expensive--clocking in at $1,300, it’s a huge investment. However, ahead of the holidays, Samsung is slashing its price to $900 and bundling in a free 2TB 990 Pro SSD. That makes this one of the best times to upgrade your setup, though it's unclear how much longer the deal will stick around.
Featuring a 49-inch OLED curved display, a 5120 x 1440p resolution, and an impressive 0.03ms response time, the Odyssey OLED G9 is the ideal companion for gaming. Coupled with its 144Hz refresh rate and support for HDMI 2.1, Micro HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB-C, and you’ve got an easy way to connect all your devices to the sprawling monitor. The stand is also fairly adjustable, allowing you to find the best viewing angle for your home. Samsung offers a three-year warranty with your purchase.
Along with the monitor, Samsung is tossing in its 2TB 990 Pro NVMe SSD with a heatsink for free. This is what makes this deal so good. This model M.2 SSD retails for $265, though it's currently selling for $180 at Samsung and Amazon. The 990 Pro is a superb high-end SSD for PC, and it's one of the best SSDs you can buy for PS5. Since it has a heatsink preinstalled, it's PS5-ready out of the box. The 990 Pro has sequential read and write speeds of 7,450MB/s and 6,900 MB/s, respectively--well above the PS5's requirements and perfect for high-end PCs.
990 Pro 4.0 NVMe SSD 2TB with Heatsink. Regularly priced at $265, that makes this deal all the more enticing, especially if you’re looking to upgrade your PC or PS5 (the SSD is fully compatible with Sony’s console).
While the above Samsung Odyssey G9 is arguably the best deal on the manufacturer's 49-inch panels, it's not the only one to consider.
The newer Samsung 49-Inch Odyssey OLED G9 Curved Monitor is discounted to $950 (was $1,600) at Amazon and offers a faster 240Hz refresh rate. Give it a look if you don’t mind spending an extra $50 and won’t miss out on the free SSD.

News - Nintendo's Next Console Will Drive Major Industry Growth In 2025, Analyst Pre
Industry analysis firm DFC Intelligence has released its 2024 market report and forecast, and despite the past two years of uncertainty, sweeping layoffs, and studio closures, the industry is set to rebound. After two years of major growth fueled by the pandemic, and its subsequent slump, DFC predicts the industry will return to growth in 2025 and beyond.
As of 2024, the number of gamers worldwide is around 3.8 billion, a figure DFC expects to reach 4 billion--around half the global population--by 2028. Of that number, 10% are considered core gamers and account for 65% of video game spending, while the rest are considered casual gamers, many of whom only game on mobile devices and don't own any dedicated hardware.
Nintendo is set to be a major winner in the next few years, with its next console (colloquially known as the Switch 2) expected to release in 2025 with little competition from Sony or Microsoft. DFC predicts that the Switch 2 will sell 15-17 million units in 2025, and more than 80 million by 2028.

The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim just hit theaters this weekend, but you can already preorder the anime on 4K Blu-ray. And yes, the anime is indeed getting a 4K Blu-ray with a steelbook case. The War of the Rohirrim's Limited Edition Steelbook is available to preorder for $38 at Amazon and Gruv. Given the immense popularity of The Lord of the Rings, you'll want to secure your preorder for the collectible edition as soon as possible. We wouldn't be surprised to see this one sell out fast at Amazon. For more The War of the Rohirrim collectibles, including action figures and Funko Pops, check out our merch roundup.
The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim - Amazon Preorders
The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim's Limited Edition Steelbook contains 4K Blu-ray, 1080p Blu-ray, and digital versions of the new anime. With Amazon's preorder price guarantee, you'll only pay the lowest price offered from the time you order and release. To be honest, I'm a bit surprised Amazon's starting price is $38 for this edition. With this being Lord of the Rings and the price of steelbooks lately, I would've expected higher.
This steelbook looks pretty great, too, with character art of Helm Hammerhand (voiced by Brian Cox) and Hera (voiced by Gaia Wise). The interior of the case features a map of Rohan, which is a nice nod to the books, many of which feature similarly designed maps on the interior covers or as fold-out inserts.
If you don't care about steelbook cases, you can preorder the non-steelbook version of the 4K Blu-ray edition for $28 at Amazon or Walmart. The actual case hasn't been revealed, but we wouldn't be surprised if the awesome movie poster shown above is the cover art. The standard 4K release, at least at this time, appears to only come with the 4K Blu-ray disc and a digital copy, not the standard Blu-ray. We'll update this if the listings change to include the standard Blu-ray disc, too.
The standard 1080p Blu-ray edition is up for preorder for $23 at Amazon. This edition will likely have the same cover art as the standard 4K edition. Amazon's listing only notes the Blu-ray disc, so it seems you might not get a digital copy with this one.
The War of the Rohirrim was created by anime studio Sola Digital Arts. The film is set 183 years before the events of The Lord of the Rings and took inspiration from Peter Jackson's beloved trilogy of films. Based on an entry in the appendix of The Lord of the Rings, The War of the Rohirrim focuses on the kingdom of Rohan and its ruler Helm Hammerhand--the namesake of Helm's Deep--and the kingdom's war with the Dunlending raiders of Dunedain.
The 4K Blu-ray release of the anime obviously won't be available to gift this holiday, but you can get the brand-new Lord of the Rings Trilogy Gift Box. Set to release December 20 and available to preorder for $145, this is a re-release of the superb 4K trilogy box set featuring The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King. It contains the extended and theatrical cuts for all three films. This set is packaged in a book-like box with a faux-leather finish. And, surprise, there's a map of Middle-earth on the interior cover of the "book." You also get a replica of the One Ring from the Noble Collection. It comes with a chain so you can wear it as a necklace and a pouch with the LOTR logo emblazoned on it.
