For a few years now some car companies have been experimenting with an idea ripped straight out of video games. Someone, somewhere figured that hey, if people are willing to pay for a game then spend more money inside the game they already bought then they might do the same for cars—a far more expensive and lucrative…

KOF XV Season 2 DLC Adds Kim Kaphwan, Shingo Yabuki

More KOF XV Season 2 DLC will start rolling out in 2023, and both Kim Kaphwan and Shingo Yabuki will join its roster. SNK says things will start in January 2023. That is when a character rebalancing update will appear and Shingo will join the cast. Kim Kaphwan and cross-play will show up in Spring 2023.

Here is a trailer going over the upcoming KOF XV Season 2 DLC.

Shingo first showed up in KOF 97. He uses martial arts when fighting. While he's being added as a single character here, he also appeared on teams in the past. He was on Team Hero in KOF 99 and on Team Japan for KOF 2001 and 2003.

Meanwhile Kim Kaphwan showed up in both KOF and Fatal Fury games. He's known for his Tae Kwon Do skills. Many times he appeared as the head of his own team in installments, which was often called Team Kim.

As a reminder, one of the last additions to the game brought Samurai Shodown characters to the cast. Darli Dagger, Haohmaru, and Nakoruru appeared as DLC back in October 2022.

The King of Fighters XV is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC. The KOF XV Season 2 DLC will kick off with Shingo Yabuki in January 2023.

Jazwares confirmed a restock of the Pikachu and Gengar Squishmallow plush toys, but didn't note exactly when in Spring 2023 they will return

A Pikachu and Gengar Squishmallow restock is on the way, but people will need to wait until next year. Jazwares announced on Twitter that the plush toys will return. However, they won't show up again until Spring 2023.

There weren't too many details about the Pikachu and Gengar restock. For example, Jazwares mentioned stores "near you," but didn't mention specific ones. It also mentioned additional sizes, but didn't specify what those might be. The Squishmallow toys can also show up in smaller varieties, such as ones that are eight inches tall. Larger sizes can also show up, such as 24 inch variants.

However, a few details were confirmed. When the next batch of Pikachu and Gengar Squishmallow return, they will have different tags. The ones from the Pokémon Center have a special tag. The next run also won't have an embroidered Poke Ball on their backs.

The Pikachu and Gengar plush toys debuted in the Pokémon Center on November 22, 2022. Each one costed $29.99. (People who did manage to get them also qualified for a free holiday ornament and free shipping.) Both varieties sold out in about an hour.

The Pikachu and Gengar Squishmallow plush toy restock is set for Spring 2023. It is unknown which other retailers will also sell them next year.

     Darktide what is Wounds stat 1As soon as you hit level eight, you unlock your first Curios slot in Warhammer 40K: Darktide. If you go to the shop to buy one, you might see one with the Wounds stat on it, but Darktide doesn't explicitly tell you what it does. Figuring out what the game's individual stats mean can be tricky, and it's not as if everyone is going to take a Curio with an unknown stat into battle solely to see what that accomplishes. Having Wounds stats can be a very helpful bonus that can make the difference between life and death, so equipping these Curios can be very much worth it. In this guide, we'll explain what a Wounds stat is in Darktide. The Wounds stat in Darktide governs how many segments you have in your HP bar. By default, you just have three. When you're downed and resuscitated, one of those three sections becomes purple, meaning that you can only heal up the white-colored spaces. Each time you're downed, another section turns purple. But with Wounds,...
