PSA: Don't Forget to Claim Free Honkai: Star Rail 5-Star Dan Heng

Back when HoYoVerse announced the 3.6 Honkai: Star Rail update, it confirmed a Dan Heng Permansor Terrae five-star character alt would appear and be given away for free to all players. However, he wasn't immediately available once the update dropped on September 24, 2025. The giveaway would start once his banner would launch on October 15, 2025. That is today, and he's now free until the 4.0 update eventually appears.

This version of Dan Heng is a Physical Preservation type of character dedicated to protecting allies. His other two incarnations are more DPS-focused. The Wind Hunt four-star we all get for free is designed to deal major damage to one target. The Imbibitor Lunae Imaginary Destruction character prioritizes AOE attacks. His Terra-Omnibus provides a shield for all allies and makes one of them a "bondmate" that provides a shield and debuffs. His Ultimate is A Dragon's Zenith Knows No Rue, and it damages enemies while shielding allies. 

There are two new trailers that accompanied his launch. One is basically an ASMR video called "Dan Heng's Exclusive Physiotherapy. You can watch that below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aY5By6CQ5E

There's also a more cinematic trailer for him called "Home."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-pQBgRsXJI

Now, as usual, it is possible to upgrade Dan Heng Permansor Terrae by getting additional Eidolons for the free one we're all getting in Honkai: Star Rail. These can be acquired via his banner, which is live now. His Warp is available until November 4, 2025. That includes the five-star version of him and the focus four-stars Hanya, Serval, and Sushang. The other five-star banner now is an Anaxa rerun one.

Honkai: Star Rail is available for the PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and the Dan Heng Permansor Terrae five-star character alt is available for free until 4.0.

Sonic Rumble Multiplayer Battle Royale Arrives in November

Following a delay that pushed Sonic Rumble out of May 2025, Sega now confirmed the multiplayer battle royale game will now launch in November 2025. An exact date hasn't been set for its debut, though the App Store listing mentioned November 30, 2025. A new trailer is also live.

The new November 2025 release window trailer for Sonic Rumble confirms the battle royal game will offer multiplayer for up to 32 people at once. Different avatars and skins will be present as customization options. The video only briefly shows overview of some of the stages and challenges that will appear.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FP6XoAMZYA

When the game does launch, there will be a number of bonuses immediately doled out to players. The pre-registration campaign hit all five of its goals. As such, we will all get a Garnet Knuckles skin, a Movie Sonic skin, a Crystal Chao buddy, a Happy Chao sticker, and 5,000 Rings. It is still possible to pre-register for the game on both Apple's App Store and Google Play. The skins change the appearance of both characters. The Crystal Chao can be equipped as a cosmetic accessory. Rings are used as an in-game currency.

Sonic Rumble will come to mobile devices in November 2025, though we don't know the exact release date for the latest spin-off.

Players celebrating a goal in FC 26

Ratings Reload Team 2 is coming soon to FC 26, and the first set of leaks has started to make their rounds on social media.

The release of the first team confirmed that there will be at least one more promo team from Ratings Reload. So far, EA Sports has remained tight-lipped about which footballers will be present on them. Thankfully, the leaks can give us an early indication of what to expect from our packs for the coming week, starting Oct. 17.

All FC 26 Ratings Reload Team 2 players (leaks)

As of writing on Oct. 15, the full team 2 cards have been leaked.

  • Ojeda
  • Kaminski
  • Ivan Romero
  • Zigiotti
  • Viggosdottir
  • Crystal Dunn
  • Francisco Conceicao
  • Maximilian Beier
  • Denzel Dumfries
  • Selma Bacha
  • Antony
  • Leny Yoro
  • Alejandro Grimaldo
  • Lauren James
  • Dominik Szoboszlai
  • Desire Doue
  • Kenan Yildiz
  • Lionel Messi
  • Kevin De Bruyne
  • Khadija Shaw

More leaks are expected to arrive closer to the release date of Team 2 in Ultimate Team. Moreover, look out for cards that will be released as SBC and objectives. Obtaining those items will be significantly easier since you won't have to rely on luck.

As usual, expect to see names of footballers who might have received lower ratings than expected. That has been the central theme of the Ratings Reload promo, and it's expected to continue with Team 2.

FC 26 Ratings Reload Team 2 release date

Ratings Reload Team 2 will be in packs when Team 1 gets removed. In simple terms, the new cards will be available in packs starting Friday, Oct. 17. They will be in packs starting from 6pm BST/12pm CT, and you can obtain them if you're lucky.

Alternatively, you can also buy them directly with coins from the market. The prices of higher-rated items will be steep, so pay attention to that. The lower-rated items will be cheaper, and some could even prove to be a bargain.
