Though Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road is still not out yet, Level-5 is amping up before its release with a comic adaptation of the story, as well as a special live-stream. The live-stream, titled Ina-Dai, will start from 10:00 PM JST (6 AM PST/9 AM EST) on October 21, 2025, and you can catch it on YouTube. As a note, the stream will only be in Japanese, and Level-5 will add subtitles to the archive version of the stream.
Currently, it's unknown what Level-5 will announce or discuss for Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road. Since its announcement in 2016, it's undergone multiple delays and title changes. In 2025 alone, Level-5 already moved the release date from August 21 to November 13, 2025. This most recent change to the release date was announced in July 2025—about a month before it was supposed to come out. So there is a possibility that Level-5 will hold this live-stream to announce yet another schedule slip. Granted, president and CEO, Akihiro Hino, did mention that 2025 will be the year of new game releases and progress in his end-of-the-year message for 2024.
As for the Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road manga, it will appear from the December 2025 issue of CoroCoro Comics. The manga adaptation will star Unmei Sasanami, the protagonist of Victory Road, and Jouji Sakurazaki, a belligerent striker. Tenya Yabuno will be the mangaka. He previously wrote and drew the manga adaptations of Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01, Inazuma Eleven, Inazuma Eleven Go, and Pokemon Horizon.
Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road currently has a release date of August 21, 2025. It'll come out on the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, Switch, Switch 2, and Windows PC.

Destiny 2's Heliostat mission brings the Guardian to an old Warsat facility to foil the Conductor's plan. As usual, guardians can find a couple of secrets and collectibles hidden around the mission. Grabbing them lets you improve Wolfsbane, the game's first battleaxe (Yes, it weapon does get more fun to use).
Heliostat's secrets include ways to improve Wolfsbane's Resurgence Directive intrinsic and to grab its four catalysts, which are needed to unleash the blade's full potential. Since it's a craftable weapon (a dying breed these days), you can also customize some parts to play to the axe's strengths.
We covered how to get Wolfsbane's catalysts and intrinsic upgrades in dedicated articles, so here's a quick, summarized breakdown of how to get all secrets in Heliostat, as well as the recommended route to get those done in a single run.
Table of contents
All Wolfsbane catalyst locations
The Wolfsbane catalysts use a type of lock-and-key system, with data pads serving as the key to certain computer terminals in Heliostat. To unlock each catalyst, find the matching data pad and interact with the corresponding terminal. We highly recommend doing these in order, at the risk of your catalysts glitching out later.
All Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrades
To upgrade Wolfsbane's intrinsic, you must use the axe to destroy nine Vex crystals located at key points of Heliostat. They're usually hidden in unlit nooks and crannies, which may be a giveaway. Here's a brief list of where to find each shape.
Recommended order for the Heliostat secrets
Based on our experience, here is the easiest order to grab all catalysts and intrinsics in a single run. Try to grab the catalysts in order, since not doing so might cause bugs.
Even if you know where to look, grabbing all secrets in Heliostat requires at least two runs in total, since you need Wolfsbane before you can interact with the collectibles.

Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 release countdown
Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 goes live on Oct. 21 for PC and consoles, and it will have a simultaneous launch. The countdown below will expire once the release takes place.
The countdown is based on the following timings.
Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 doesn't have any kind of early access. If you want to spend more, you can opt for either the Deluxe or the Premium Edition. While both editions provide you with extra in-game goodies, everyone starts playing at the same moment.
Additionally, there's no New Zealand method to exploit as Paradox Interactive hasn't opted for a regional launch on any platform. If you're yet to pre-order your copy, let's find out what to expect.
What to expect from Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2
Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 puts you in the boots of Nomad. An ancient vampire, you have woken up from your slumber in a modern world driven by thirst. Your hunting grounds are set in modern-day Seattle, as there's a vampire war on the horizon.
While you hunt to feed yourself, there are enemies to take down and an old case to be solved. All the action begins on Oct. 21 when the game goes live.

While some Destiny 2 fans deeply mourned SIVA (which seems dead for good) in the Heliostat mission, others were overjoyed by Wolfsbane, the new Exotic axe. Unlocking this weapon's full potential requires upgrading its intrinsic, which is done by finding secrets in the activity.
Heliostat has two different sets of collectibles. The large, glowing, totally inconspicuous Vex symbols are required to upgrade Wolfsbane's Resurgence Directive intrinsic, while the datapads and terminals are the key to unlocking its four catalysts. We've explained the important (and missable) locations needed to juice up your axe below.
Table of contents
How to upgrade Wolfsbane's intrinsic in Destiny 2
While you can shape the battleaxe as soon as you've wrapped up your first run of Heliostat, the biggest shaping options are locked behind upgrades. There are three sets of Vex nodes scattered at key points of the mission, and you must destroy them with Wolfsbane to unlock the respective upgrade. Hitting them with anything else shows an Immune prompt.
In a solo run, we had to break all nine Vex nodes, but the math appears different when it comes to fireteams. Seemingly, the symbols are tied to the number of players who haven't unlocked that intrinsic. Theoretically, in a full team, each guardian should only need to break one set of shapes, though your mileage may vary. If you're by yourself, you should get an intrinsic after each group of three symbols.
First Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive II)
The three glyphs in the first set of symbols required for the Wolfsbane intrinsic are shaped like diamonds. After you've destroyed the four security nodes at the beginning, drop down into an area filled with water and look for the first symbol in the one dimly lit alcove. It's to the left of the terminal and directly opposite the correct exit, on the far side of the room.
The next diamond is in the following section. Keep going until you see an alcove with a lamp slightly above you. Look to your left once you get there, or turn right if you jump across.
The final diamond is past that area, when you enter a dark corridor. This small alcove is hidden behind a pipe, which is difficult to see if you don't move around. Go to the room with the long walkway in front of it, then look for the unlit nook below and to your right.
Second Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive III)
The next set of symbols is in the longer parkour section. You'll find them in a different order depending on the path you choose, but what matters is breaking all shapes with Wolfsbane.
After climbing on the elevator on the right, you'll reach an area with two Goblins shooting at you from a ledge up high, with a short, yellow walkway to their right. Look for this symbol across from the Goblins, hidden behind a wall.
The remaining two shapes appear on the other side of the room. They're very visible and are right in your path. One is just off the beginning, while the other isn't too far ahead.
Third Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive IV)
The boss room is sectioned off into three parts: the main area and the two adjoining rooms required for the hacking mechanic. There's a symbol in each of them.
From your spawn point, one of the squares is on the back left of the room. There's one more in the area where you summon the hacking Psion, floating above a computer terminal. The final shape you need is to your left after breaking through the second wall with the Quicksilver Psion.
If you've destroyed all symbols, you should obtain the three necessary intrinsics, though being on a fireteam may net different results. This lets you shape the handle and blades (yes, plural) on Wolfsbane, giving you a little room to design this weapon as you'd like.

Unstable Cores are a new item in The Edge of Fate, Destiny 2's latest expansion. This controversial currency was required to infuse weapons and armor beyond 200 power. Though the resource is fated to disappear in the future, Bungie gifted guardians 777,777 Unstable Cores to use until then.
The newly minted Unstable Cores are integral to the leveling process, at least for the time being. If you're a new or returning player who doesn't know what to do with your lifetime supply of green rocks, here's a quick explanation on how they work, how to use them, and why they're going away.
What are Unstable Cores in Destiny 2
Simply put, Unstable Cores are consumed to level up your gear after reaching power level 200 and drop by dismantling gear past that threshold. Items with a higher level yield more Cores when destroyed, but infusing costs grow based on the discrepancy between the two items.
How to use Unstable Cores in Destiny 2
Unstable Cores are used automatically when infusing items, like the now-defunct Upgrade Modules. Raising the power level of any item above 200 will consume some of your stash. Infusing between two of the same piece of gear or weapon only costs 1,000 Glimmer, however. If you have a well-rolled Techsec Hood helmet at 300 but got a 310 one with worse stats, using the latter as infusion fodder is a cheap option. For armor, this only works for the same class.
Why Unstable Cores are being removed
Unstable Cores were far from being the biggest controversy with Edge of Fate, but they quickly became another problem for Bungie. The vision behind this currency was to add a source of fleeting, seasonal power during an expansion, which would reset when the next major DLC dropped. Understandably, that wasn't well received.
The studio confirmed it will sunset this resource in the future and announced a one-time gift of 777,777 Unstable Cores—more than enough to tide guardians over until this currency goes away for good.
"Overall, we've found that Unstable Cores have been too restrictive across power levels and fail to drive interesting buildcraft decisions," Bungie wrote. The rising infusion costs made it expensive to keep multiple builds at level, especially if you were playing more than one character (like bringing your Warlock up to code after the amazing Voidwalker buffs).
Additionally, the expiration date for both a player's total power level and Unstable Cores—all with a lifespan of around six months—didn't help its case. Gathering stocks of materials only for them to disappear months later didn't appeal to guardians, and the studio even walked back the planned power reset with Renegades.

Wolfsbane, Destiny 2's long-anticipated battle axe, landed in the game as a reward for finishing the Heliostat Exotic mission. This deadly weapon has four different catalysts to choose from, each leaning into some of its defining traits, and you can get them by playing its mission.
While Bungie seems to have done away with crafting entirely after Echoes, some Exotics seem to be exempt from that rule, including the new battle axe. Three of Wolfsbane's four catalysts add existing perks to this weapon, but one of them enhances its unique features. As usual, the catalysts are hidden behind some small secrets in Heliostat. Here's how you can get them.
All Wolfsbane catalysts in Destiny 2
Wolfsbane's main gameplay loop is hitting enemies with light attacks to charge up its heavy attack and build up Nano-Assault, which turbocharges the weapon and grants you some ammo. Continued light attacks are one of its key features, and three of its catalysts give that combination a little more juice.
All of these are available after finding the associated secrets in Heliostat, which we've listed below. We highly recommend doing this in the intended order, otherwise your catalysts may become glitched. We grabbed the fourth catalyst before the second and third, keeping us from obtaining the Subroutine: ~Recursion catalyst due to a bug.
How to get all Wolfsbane catalysts in Destiny 2
Getting the catalysts for Wolfsbane doesn't involve that many secrets. In short, all you need to do is pick up a data pad, install it in a nearby terminal, and complete the mission (thanks, 360GameTV). Plugging the device in will change the terminal's screen, indicating you're eligible to get the associated catalyst.
You don't have to complete all of those steps in a single run, so don't worry about error codes or heading back to orbit. It's possible to pick up the gadget in one run (at which point it disappears), then interact with the terminal on a second try, and complete the mission on a third, and you still get the credit for the catalyst. This worked for the first catalyst, though we haven't tested it in the other ones.
First Wolfsbane catalyst location (Attrition Orbs)
The first data pad appears early in the mission. After defeating the first group of enemies, you'll come up on a radioactive reactor. Summon the shielding Psion and head past the reactor, then look for a datapad across from the second device, hidden behind a pile of crates. Interact with the console on the other side of the hallway, just behind the shielding Psion's next spawn point.
Second Wolfsbane catalyst location (Relentless Strikes)
When you drop down into the electrified elevator shaft, land and look for a white circle telling you to summon the hacking Psion. Go to the opposite console, where you can interact with three symbols to control the elevator. The rightmost symbol makes the elevator stop near the top of the shaft, while the middle symbol grinds it to a halt on the halfway point. The leftmost glyph brings the elevator down.
Interact with the panel on the right to unveil a room with a data pad. Pick it up, then drop down again and hit the first symbol to bring the elevator to you. Finish by hitting the middle glyph and jumping on the elevator to find the terminal for this data pad.
Third Wolfsbane catalyst location (Burning Ambition)
The third Wolfsbane catalyst appears before/during the parkour section, after you've entered the three security code fragments. You must find three terminals to reset the security systems, unlocking another hidden datapad ("hidden" might be an understatement, so another round of thanks to 360GameTV for finding it).
One of the terminals is located outside the main room, across from the Psion beacon. You may have found this one after dropping into the walkway, since it's right in your path.
For the second terminal, face the beacon and take the path to the right. Look to the right again to see a computer on a wall, indicating where you should go. Take the elevator to the top and clear the enemies near you, including a Barrier Champion. Jump down from the white circle and aim for the ledge.
The last terminal is located on the other side of the area. If you take the path on the left of the main hall, you'll find a small walkway on the wall to the left of the elevator. Jump on it to find another computer.
Triggering all three terminals lets you redo the security hacking puzzle. This time, the solution reveals a hidden nook below the central room, which has the gear required to input a data pad. The gadget is hidden on the top of the main base.
The easiest way to get there may be to look up from the rooms adjoined to the main hall, where you can find a couple of walkways that serve as footholds. Look for this data pad below one of the catwalks on top of the base, then place it on the terminal.
Fourth Wolfsbane catalyst location (Subroutine: ~Recursion)
The final catalyst appears during the traversal section before the final boss, where you must override the gravlift. From the main hall, we recommend taking the path on the left of the hacking beacon, since this will save you some time.
The elements you need are in the two hallways with the terminals for the mission objective. Using the beacon as a direction, there's a data pad in a small hole on the floor on the left side (watch out for the radiation). The matching terminal is on the end of the hallway on the right, obscured by the folded panel. They'll always be on opposite side.
Once you've entered all data pads in the associated terminal, clear the mission to receive the catalysts. Again, we recommend doing them in order to avoid any bugs.
